Chapter 1371: The reasoning started very quickly

As expected, the person who knocked on the door was Sheriff dawst. He only knocked on the door a few times before pushing the door open and entering.
“Wow, you’re really drinking it.” Once they entered the room, the sergeant’s gaze fell on the bottle of wine before Feng bujue, and he made a sarcastic comment.
At this moment, the expression on the chief officer’s face had become very relaxed, and behind this “relaxation” was an undisguised attitude of “a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water”.
No matter how much benefits dawst had received from John, and no matter how much he feared the Herbert family’s influence on the island … After the call from the Minister of Internal Affairs, all these factors no longer existed.
Zuo Yan had used his actions to send a message to the chief Officer to shake up John Herbert’s forces. On this Island, he might be at the level of a King. However, in front of those with real power, he was just the boss of a caning factory with a little money.
!!“Mr. Chief, you’ve come at the right time.” When Feng bujue saw Daxter, he also smiled and said warmly,”let’s try this bottle of flower bud that is worth hundreds of thousands of pounds. How does it sound?”
“Ha!” When Daxter heard that, he laughed drily. Obviously, he took brother Jue’s words as a joke.”Sure, this wine is worth more than my entire pension. I’ll be able to see God after I finish it.”
As he spoke, the sergeant had already turned to the bar and picked up a glass. Then he walked to the sofa next to brother Jue.
It looked like … He was really going to drink it.
On the other hand, Zuo Yan and Sam had also followed the sheriff into the room. The two of them walked in unhurriedly, one after the other. From their expressions, it could be seen that they each had their own thoughts …
By the time they entered the room, John had already regained his usual calmness, so they didn’t know about the red wine storm.
“So … How’s the progress so far?” When the three sat down, Feng bujue raised his eyes to Zuo Yan and asked the question.
Logically speaking, this matter should be asked to dawist. After all, he was the person in charge of the scene.
However, Feng bujue asked Zuo Yan directly … Or rather, he asked Victor.
This was because brother Jue knew very well that other than himself, the person (cat) who was closest to the ‘truth’ was none other than Victor. Even John and Sam, who were involved in the incident, might not know more about the whole thing than brother Jue and Victor, who were bystanders.
“Hmm …” Zuo Yan muttered to himself for two seconds before he continued,”without a doubt, this is a simple and small case.”
Just this opening line confirmed one thing for Feng bujue. The person (cat) that was talking to him was not Zuo Yan but Victor.
Zuo Yan was a quiet person. He would only become decisive and overbearing in sudden and dangerous situations. Usually, he was a man of gentleness and was very modest to others. Based on Feng bujue’s understanding of Zuo Yan, the latter would not say something as arrogant as ‘a simple case’.
However, victork was different. This cat was extremely conceited, and his catchphrase was “I am victork.” He often used these words to answer questions raised by Zuo Yan.
What are you doing here? How did you do it? How do you know he’s the murderer? How did you come up with such a motive?
Zuo Yan would often ask Victor similar questions. Although not every time, there were still many times when Victor would answer with “I’m Victor.”
It was like asking Batman,”how did you catch the criminal?”
At this point, Batman did not need to talk nonsense with you about reasoning and the process of action. He only needed to reply,”“Because_I’m_batman!”It was enough.
It was the same for vidoch. For a detective like him, arrogance and ability were directly proportional. He did have the capital to be arrogant.
Right now, he was using the spirit dialogue to say what he wanted to say.
Of course, no one would have thought … Zuo Yan was actually repeating the words of a cat that had been hiding somewhere, but as the creator of these two characters, brother Jue knew exactly what was going on.
“Ha!” As soon as Zuo Yan finished speaking, dauste, who had already finished half a glass of red wine, let out his trademark dry laugh and interrupted,”it seems like our famous detective is going to start his deduction show. I’ve only seen this kind of scene in movies. I didn’t expect to be able to experience it for myself today.”
“Yeah … I’m also looking forward to it.” The next second, Sam followed up with a tone that was 30% teasing and 70% expectant.
In fact, there was no need for him to speak up at this point. Unfortunately … Sam was not a brilliant and skilled criminal, so he could not help but feel guilty. Therefore, he used this kind of fake relaxed tone and said this sentence to hide his nervousness and uneasiness.
Regarding this, other than panicking for him, Feng bujue did not have a better solution. This was truly a rhythm that a pig-like teammate could not lead …
The meaning behind Sam’s actions was obvious to even zuoyan and chief Daxter, much less detectives like brother Jue and Victor. As for John … He had determined from the beginning that today’s incident had something to do with Sam, and no matter what Sam did, he would be able to take it to heart.
All in all, Sam’s words had no other meaning other than making himself more suspicious in front of everyone …
“Then …” After a short, but awkward silence, zuoyan spoke again and explained on behalf of Victor,”in order to let everyone here understand the case better, I will tell you the entire case in chronological order.”
At this point, he paused and adjusted his breathing.
Feng bujue knew that Zuo Yan was waiting for Victor to finish his sentence. As mental communication required time, it was a difficult skill to listen to the voice in one’s mind while retelling the information. Even though Zuo Yan was already very familiar with it, it was still difficult for him to avoid the overlapping of his voice and the voice in his mind, creating an interference.
“To explain today’s case, first of all, we have to mention the inheritance dispute case of the Herbert family from many years ago.” Zuo Yan continued after two seconds.
But just as he opened his mouth, John interrupted him,””Mr. Zuo … Isn’t this going too far?”
Before Zuo Yan could reply, Sam sneered and interrupted,””Hmph … What? Are you afraid that something you can’t tell others will be revealed?”
“Gentlemen!” Feng bujue cut them off decisively.”Mind your image. You are all gentlemen, not shrews …” As he said that, he turned to John.”Mr. Herbert, if you can not come up with a more appropriate and sufficient reason other than ‘going too far’, then please let Zuo Yan finish …” After he said that, he paused for half a second before adding,”or I will feed you sh * t.”
