Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner - Vol 2 Chapter 200
“Tony, listen to me and sell that painting! After all, what if it really catches fire?” Brian advised.
“Even if I want to sell it, do you think anyone in New Orleans would dare to buy it?” Tangning replied with a wry smile.
Brian was at a loss for words: “Well, that’s true, but you can try to sell it to other places, such as entrusting an auction house in New York like that Huss.”
“Well, this is a solution!” Tangning then asked curiously, “Huh? What are you doing?”
“No, no! Why do you ask that?” Brian asked with an unnatural look.
“Because I found out that you keep checking the time!” Tangning pointed to Brian’s watch and replied.
“Oh, you misunderstood, I just glanced at my watch!” Brian said perfunctorily.
After chatting for a while, Brian got up and said, “Okay, I’ll go home first!”
The next day, Tangning had just woken up when Sheriff Klein walked in with someone and asked him with a serious face, “Tony, did Brian come to your house for a drink last night?”
Tangning nodded inexplicably and replied, “Yeah, what, what happened?”
But Sheriff Crane did not answer his question, but continued to ask, “What time did he leave?”
Tangning thought for a while, then replied, “Uh, it should be around nine o’clock, I don’t remember the exact details, after all, I didn’t pay attention! In this way, you can ask Marlene, Heidi and the others later, maybe they are. will remember the time more accurately.”
After asking Heidi and Marlene and other servants, Sheriff Klein found out that Brian left at a little after nine o’clock, and he was relieved: “That’s Tony, Brian’s wife Anna. She was murdered at Kimmel’s apartment last night, so we naturally have to investigate the people around her first, especially since Brian was out last night…”
Before Sheriff Klein could finish speaking, Heidi couldn’t help interrupting, “Wait a minute, Sheriff Klein, you said Anna was killed? Who killed her?”
“For the time being, we are still investigating!” Sheriff Klein replied casually.
“But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Why did Anna get killed in Kimmel’s apartment? She wasn’t home at night, so why would she go to that kind of place?” Tangning asked.
The reason Downing would use “that kind of place” to describe Kimmel Apartments was because it was a well-known cheating apartment in New Orleans, known for protecting the privacy of clients.
The secret method used by his family is that you shove the envelope containing the rent into the door of the apartment office, and then the staff will shove the key through the door, so that even the apartment does not know who the room is rented to tonight.
Hearing Tangning’s question, Sergeant Klein glanced at Heidi before answering with some embarrassment, “According to the situation at the scene, Anna should be going on a date…”
Before Sheriff Klein could finish speaking, Heidi interrupted: “It’s impossible, Anna isn’t that kind of person, you’d say it’s almost the same for my brother to go on a date there!”
“But the scene was like this, because Anna was lying in the bathtub and was stabbed to death in the chest. You said that if you weren’t going on a date, you would soak yourself in a bathtub full of rose petals?” Sheriff Klein retorted.
Heidi was at a loss for words when she heard the answer, so Tangning helped to change the subject and asked, “Did you find out who she was dating that night?”
Sheriff Klein shook his head and replied: “This has not been found yet! But this person must be a major suspect!”
“So now that Brian’s suspicions are cleared?” Tangning asked again.
Sheriff Klein nodded and replied, “Well, it’s basically been lifted. According to your testimony and his maid’s testimony, Brian should have returned home after leaving your house, so he was not present. ”
Heidi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her brother was not suspicious, but after Sheriff Klein left, she still frowned and said to Tangning, “Tony, I still feel something is wrong, because based on what I know about Anna , she’s not the kind of woman who goes to Kimmel’s flat!”
“But the fact is that she showed up at Kimmel’s apartment, and it’s still that way of dying!” Tangning shrugged.
“Then I don’t believe she would do such a thing either!” Heidi insisted, but she probably knew she couldn’t tell the difference, so she turned and walked back to her study.
Contrary to Tangning’s expectations, Brian arrived not long after, and said to herself with a serious face, “Tony, I’m going to tell you something, but you have to promise to help me keep it a secret!”
“No problem, tell me!” Tangning replied casually.
I saw that Brian closed the door and window carefully, and even drew the curtains, and then walked closer and said in a low voice, “That’s it, I met someone at a bar a few days ago. A beautiful woman named Lauren, she asked me to come to Kimmel Apartments 403 last night…”
Before Brian could finish speaking, Tangning interrupted, “Wait a minute, if I remember correctly, Anna was killed in Kimmel Apartment 403, right? Did you and that Lauren give Anna to… …”
“What nonsense? If I really hurt Anna, I’ll come and tell you?” Brian said angrily.
Tangning thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, “Uh, that’s true, so what time did you go?”
“Just after leaving your house, because she made an appointment with me at half past nine!” Brian explained.
“No, if that’s the case, then why do the police think you didn’t have the time? My time here is definitely accurate, that means that maid from your family…” Tangning analyzed it. Then stared at Brian and asked.
Brian nodded and replied, “That’s right, Marisa lied for me, but I didn’t arrive home until nearly ten o’clock!”
“But why would she lie to you? Could it be that you and her…” Tangning had a hunch~www.mtlnovel.com~ As expected, Brian replied in embarrassment, “Uh, actually , In fact, she is also my woman, so naturally she will help me lie!”
Then he warned: “But you can’t tell others about this, otherwise the police will doubt Marisa’s testimony!”
Tangning promised, “Don’t worry, I know. Now let’s talk about it. Was Anna still alive when you arrived at Kimmel’s Apartment 403?”
“You may not believe it. In fact, I didn’t see Anna in Kimmel’s apartment at all. Instead, Lauren died in the bathtub…”
PS: I feel that Baibai has been a little watery recently. In fact, there is no need to pursue three changes a day. Quality is the most important thing. In addition, I have been a little less cautious recently. It would be a shame to be banned again…
