"I didn't expect that you could coax a rude guy like Harvey into running around with just two words!" Looking at Bullock who turned away, Director Gordon shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I feel like it was Settison who did it. I’ve told you too many inside stories about the Gotham City Police Department!”
"Haha, I just overheard something while drinking and chatting with my cousin. Don't worry about it!" Guan Heng said perfunctorily to Director Gordon, but at this moment he was thinking secretly in his heart: "It's a pity that Alice's ghost She just provided two words of information and then disappeared, it would be great if she could let me know some more details!"
It turns out that Guan Heng immediately ran to the place where Alice fell, not just because he wanted to observe the cause of her death, but because the poor bride-to-be died at the moment because of a trace of unwilling obsession that made his ghost condense and form instantly. Got it!
Guan Heng originally wanted to step forward and ask clearly, but unfortunately this ordinary person's ghost was too weak. In just seven or eight seconds, it was on the verge of dissipating. In desperation, Guan Heng wanted to use the ghost-eating beast tattoo on the back of his hand to absorb her. ghost, but it's too late!
At this time, something happened to the ghost-swallowing beast. One of its three closed eyes suddenly opened, and it stared at Alice's ghost. Alice's soul stopped for a moment, and she opened her mouth to Guan Heng in panic. She panicked and said four words: "Fake, fake..." Then she could no longer hold on, and her weak soul collapsed and disappeared into the world with a soft bang!
"After the death of frail women, children and the elderly, their ghosts cannot be condensed and formed unless they have a strong last wish that has not been fulfilled!" Guan Heng glanced at the back of his hand: "In the past, ghost-eating beasts absorbed souls. He always kept his eyes closed and never opened his pupils. It seems that this is a new ability that was added after the ghost-swallowing beast tattoo was fused with Listening to the Remnant Soul in Jiapan Palace in the small underworld to have a third eye. !”
"Opening one eye can stop the ghost that is about to collapse for a few seconds!" Guan Heng thought to himself: "This can buy some time to understand the information, but what Alice said before the ghost disappeared is fake, fake "What on earth does this mean?"
Guan Heng's brows furrowed into a knot, but he couldn't think of a reason. At this time, relevant investigators entered the room one by one and began to be questioned by Director Gordon. Guan Heng just hugged his shoulders. Leaning in the corner of the wall next to the window, he quietly observed these various faces with different expressions, hoping to find some clues.
Since the parents of the bride-to-be Alice were dead and her family was in ruins, very few of the bride's relatives came. Only distant uncles and aunts came to help organize the wedding. As a result, Alice suffered such misfortune, and the two of them were extremely sad. Holding his head and sobbing.
When Director Gordon saw that their condition was really not suitable for questioning, he shook his head slightly, then waved his hands and said to Harvey Bullock: "Take them down first to calm down, and we'll talk about the questioning later!" Harvey nodded. Head, led Alice's aunt and uncle out!
Then came the police's questioning of everyone attending the wedding while the man was attending the wedding. The first was Mr. Kirby, the old head of Reston's family. This unsmiling real estate tycoon was old-fashioned and indifferent. He did not show any sadness because of the death of his son's fiancée.
"Chief Gordon, when you are surrounded by so many police officers, something happened to my daughter-in-law-to-be. I question your work efficiency!" Kirby Reston unceremoniously put the blame on Director Gordon: "The missing black pearl king "Azra" here is the family treasure of my distant relative. It has been passed down from generation to generation for hundreds of years. Now it has been stolen from my house. What do you want me to do?" Explain to your relatives!”
"I know these jewels were generously lent by your distant relative!" Director Gordon faced the richest man in Gotham City, and his tone had to be lowered: "Mr. Rexton, please don't worry. , we have controlled the exit immediately and prohibited everyone present from leaving, so the black pearl must still be in this mansion, and the police will definitely find the stolen black pearl as soon as possible!"
"Hmph, you didn't say anything about preventing the guests from leaving. I haven't thought of it yet!" Kirby Reston raised his voice and said, "My guests are all prominent figures in Gotham City, and you are restricting their freedom like this." Action, what is the difference between this and house arrest?”
"I only give you one hour!" Kirby issued an ultimatum to Commissioner Gordon: "If you can't find the Black Pearl within these sixty minutes, you must solemnly apologize to my guests, and then Let them leave on their own!"
"Only in this way can we protect the dignity of the guests attending my son's wedding!" After these few words of command were given, Kirby Rexton said nothing else. He stood up in a hurry, holding the civilized staff in his hand. Whisper away!
"What a rigid and indifferent old man!" Commissioner Gordon shook his head and sent Kirby away, then muttered: "These rich and wealthy heads of famous families are really difficult to maintain. Alas, except for Bruce Wayne, they all Not an easy person to get along with!"
"Haha, it seems that caring about the face of the guests is more important than the murder of the prospective daughter-in-law!" Guan Heng chuckled and shook his head and said: "This Mr. Rexton doesn't seem to like his prospective daughter-in-law, Miss Alice!"
"That's because he thinks that Alice's family is willing to marry their ugly son for money!" Director Gordon said casually: "I would also have such doubts, after all, their looks are too different. , not a good match at all!"
Then the second person who came in was the eldest son of the Reston family - Bayev! He has very obvious characteristics of White Russian ancestry. He is tall, handsome, and exudes shrewdness and ability. Both Bayev and his second brother Dadro were born to the first Russian wife of the old family owner who died of illness. The two brothers have good looks. There are sixty-seven points of similarity.
It was still a routine interrogation. Bayev said that he and Dadero were drinking and chatting with the guests in the courtyard when Alice fell. Hundreds of pairs of eyes were looking at the two brothers, so their alibi was useless. No doubt about it!
After Bayev left, the second young master Dadero followed. The confession he gave was exactly the same as what his brother mentioned, so he was temporarily ruled out as a suspect. Then there were inquiries about other people. Until the end, Guan Heng suddenly frowned, feeling as if he had missed someone.
"Director, how come the third child of the Reston family never shows up?" Guan Heng asked Gordon with some confusion, "I seem to have never seen him..."
"Who is looking for me?" A low and hoarse voice suddenly sounded from outside the door, and the person who walked in next was none other than Sarkins Rexton!
