In the bar, opposite Thomas Hodelman, Han Anni was asking him questions, and his forehead was already sweating.
There were Yin Sabel's followers taking notes carefully.
Lu Ming was behind the bar. From this angle, Thomas couldn't see him.
Listening to Han Anni's questions, Lu Ming nodded. Xiao Nizi was getting better and better, and her interrogation skills had improved greatly.
Glancing at Hetty, who was looking a little uneasy across from him, Lu Ming whispered, "Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Just now, Hetty mentioned that Simmons often got drunk here and had many conversations with her. What Simmons said the most was that Thomas Hodelman had given him too many favors, and she had always been very strange. , he was just working as a worker in a tannery factory, earning the same salary as others, and I didn’t see him saving any money. How could he start talking about Thomas giving him a lot of favors?
And when she heard that Simmons and several people had assassinated the Duke of Haussburg, she thought of the conversation she had had with Thomas, and felt even more strange.
Moreover, the last time she saw Simmons, Simmons asked her if she wanted to leave here with him and pick her up when he made a lot of money.
Simmons had joked with her like this many times. She thought it was the same drunken joke as before, but she didn't expect that that was the last time the two of them saw each other.
When she said this, Hetty looked a little sad and a little panicked. Obviously, she also knew that she might be involved in this terrible whirlpool.
And now, when Thomas was brought here for questioning, Hetty was even more frightened.
Looking at her, Lu Ming whispered: "I told you, I can send you and your daughter off tonight. If you want to settle in Houseville, there is a Peninsula Hotel in Houseville, and I can arrange a room service for you. Deputy director or deputy director of the cleaning department, I feel that you are very careful and capable. You can quickly get started with this kind of work. As a deputy, you can also quickly gain experience." After a pause, "If you don't want to stay in Houseville, , you can also go to Donghai, where I have my hotel, of course, other cities are also available. As for me, I suggest you leave Houseville, because you should also understand that it is a big deal now, although you are not involved in it. , and there is no need for you to testify in court, but after all, you have contributed to the Special Investigation Bureau, and there is no guarantee in the future... Therefore, I suggest that you leave and live a new life in another place. I will help you get a new identity."
After a pause, he said, "Actually, it's difficult to leave your hometown, but the world is huge outside and the scenery may be better. You should think about it carefully."
A female attendant was quietly translating.
Hetty listened blankly, and then smiled bitterly: "What do you mean by leaving home? This place is not my home at all. If I have the opportunity to leave here and forget everything here, it is a gift from God for me, Mr. Lu , thank you, I am willing to go to other places, you can send me anywhere, as long as I don’t trouble you too much.”
Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, then I understand."
Thomas suddenly shouted angrily over there: "What, you want to lock me up for forty-eight hours? What evidence do you have, what law have I broken? I want to find a lawyer!"
"Whether or not a lawyer is present, we have the right to detain you for forty-eight hours. During this period, we will not interrogate you again, so there is no need to provide you with a lawyer!" Han Anni stood up as she spoke, "This tavern is temporarily under the control of the Special Investigation Bureau Requisition, you stay here and think carefully, if there is anything you need to say to us!”
Lu Ming made a gesture to Hetty and the little girl Lida next to him, pointed to the back door, and whispered: "Let's go from here."
…
In the study room on the second floor of the courtyard, the bald detective Quixon sat across from him. For the past two days, he had been investigating everyone in the town who might be related to the three Simmons.
At this time, looking at Lu Ming, he smiled bitterly and said: "I don't believe it, Lao Lu, you can't find out anything? Didn't you figure out the identities of the three gunmen quietly?"
He came to inquire about the news, but after talking for a long time, he couldn't find the point.
Lu Ming called him Lao Kui, and he followed suit and called Lu Ming Lao Lu.
Lu Ming spread his hands and said, "I just don't have any clues."
After the door was lightly knocked, Yin Sabel rushed in with excitement on her face. But when she saw Quixon, she immediately stood still, regained her grace and calmness, and said calmly: "You haven't left yet?"
Quixon is one of the few people in the Special Investigation Bureau who knows Yin Sabel's true identity, because although he is not a high-ranking detective, he is a detective that the top management of the Special Investigation Bureau relies on very much, and many things are not hidden from him. The position and salary could not satisfy him, so he could only pay special attention to him in this way, and tell him secrets that only the highest level could know, and Quixon just followed this trick.
Seeing this noble royal family in snow-white clothes and trousers, Quixon stood up and bowed, "Miss Yin Sabel, I take leave!"
He glanced at Lu Ming suspiciously again and said to himself that Lao Lu is Lao Lu. You tell me, Your Excellency Yin Sabel clearly regarded him as one of his own. He just knocked on the door and barged in. Moreover, he was the kind of unsmiling person he usually saw. The poker face is gone, the little excited look, she is obviously a beautiful girl in her bloom, now, she is wearing it again.
Lu Ming thought for a while and said: "Lao Kui, let's do this. You stay. Although it is said that the fewer people who know, the better, but I believe you. Before you turn the dice, you can't tell anyone."
Quixon was immediately overjoyed, "Okay, okay!"
Lu Ming looked at Yin Sabel, "Is there any good news?"
Seeing that Lu Ming allowed the agent to stay, Yin Sabel stopped guarding Quixon and smiled proudly: "Yes, teacher."
Quixon looked at this scene, rubbed his eyes hard, and smiled bitterly in his heart. Yes, even if he is a real nobleman, in reality, he is still a young girl in his late teens, right? However, her cute appearance as a girl is naturally invisible to ordinary people.
Yin Sabel had already taken out a letter, "The fourth team intercepted it and came out after interrogation. The letter was sent to Housewell, to Rooney Hodelman, the owner of the hotel where you discussed business, but the person who sent the letter , was...he didn't know the content of the letter."
Lu Ming nodded and took the letter. Seeing that the glue was still sealing the mouth, it was obvious that Yin Sabel did not open it, but gave it to him so that he could read the contents of the letter immediately.
Although the content of the letter must be translated by her, she should also show it to herself to show her respect for herself.
Lu Ming smiled at Yin Sabel: "It seems that you are the one who deserves the most credit. It was all your idea."
Yin Sabel smiled coquettishly, "Thank you, teacher!"
The Hodelman family's step-by-step approach to the tannery was to create an atmosphere in which they had been exposed and even had certain evidence.
In the previous life, it was just a way to scare off the grass and scare the snake.
Sure enough, the Hodelman family branch in this small town couldn't hold back anymore and wanted to contact a higher level.
As for the phone calls, etc., Yin Sabel's people were all monitoring the lines, and they were also keeping an eye on the activities of the Hodelman family members.
Sure enough, the messenger was intercepted now.
Lu Ming put on rubber gloves, soaked the envelope head with water, slowly opened the envelope, took out the paper from inside, and smiled.
It seems that the key information has really been intercepted, but just trying to decrypt it is not that simple.
Yin Sabel put her curious pretty face next to Lu Ming's face and gritted her teeth, "How cunning!"
On the paper was a bunch of numbers. It was obviously a coded letter.
