Eleven pm.
Apartment on Calvi Street 16.
Seeing the helpless Sigurd, Lu Li suppressed his inner disgust for the murderer and comforted him:
"Mr. Siegel, to show my sincerity, I hereby assure you that I will never reveal any information to the newspaper."
"As for Scotland Yard, I will also ask the chief officer of the Criminal Investigation Department, Harvard Vincent, to help keep the secret."
"The premise is to tell the truth."
Unfortunately, little success was achieved.
Sigurd's expression was still extremely embarrassed.
He felt like a beast that had been stripped of its skin by hunters. Now, he had no other illusions except the desire for death.
"You should have dealt with journalists. They are best at stirring up trouble, digging up other people's privacy, and then exaggerating it and presenting it to the public."
Lu Li emphasized his tone. He knew very well that under extraordinary circumstances, one should act in an extraordinary way. People like this upper class cherish their reputation the most.
"Mr. Detective, you don't need to pay attention to morality or the rule of law when dealing with evil people. Let me practice with this little mouse!"
At this time, Mr. Lasker suddenly spoke up and rushed forward to drag Sickert up.
Just a few hours ago, a blood-stained letter and a small gift severely trampled on his face. If he hadn't still had some sense in his heart, he would have pulled the trigger long ago.
"come kill me."
Seeing this, Sigurd smiled mockingly, without any guilt after killing someone, and even made a V-shaped gesture towards the three of them, declaring victory.
He vowed to take everything into the coffin.
"You little beast, I don't care who you know. If you kill someone, even if I kill you now, you won't have to go to jail. Do you believe it?"
George put the barrel of the gun against Sickert's forehead, and without any politeness, he punched the stomach hard, twice...
The sound of the punch hitting the flesh really startled Lu Li and Duke. If the person was beaten to death or seriously injured, how would the case be settled?
When the time comes, the two of them will have no place to cry.
Plop!
Suddenly, there was an uncontrollable punch. Sigurd seemed to have been hit by a running rhinoceros. His whole body leaned back, half-twisted in the air, and fell heavily on the sofa.
"Mr. Lasker——"
"What the hell are you doing!"
"Calm down and leave it to the two of us."
Duke was shocked and angry. He was thinking about solving the case and solving the case. Seeing the suspect being beaten like this, he pushed George Lasker away, then rushed to sit in front of Sickert and squatted down to check his vital signs.
Looking at Sigurd with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, Lu Li was not polite after taking away the revolver, and directly sneered: "Sir, frankly speaking, your performance is extremely disappointing. In my hometown, this kind of method It’s called impotent rage.”
"call……"
After suppressing it for too long, George admitted that he had been impulsive just now. His back shook violently for a while before he could barely calm down the urge to kill.
"Sorry, I feel a little uncontrollable when I think about the ruined dinner party..."
At this time, after confirming that Sickert's vital signs were still stable, Duke finally exhaled and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Oh, if an apology is useful, then we need the police."
As he finished speaking, he remembered that this man seemed very powerful, and he was completely worthy of Scotland Yard.
"I have caused trouble to you two. I will never interfere in the next actions. I will continue to fulfill my promise and cooperate fully."
George had calmed down now. After all, after those few punches, the depression in his heart had dissipated a lot, and he also thought of something Sigurd had said before.
"As far as I know, you are not a lonely person. Your mother is still alive and you have many friends with similar interests. You might as well think about them more."
With that said, Lu Li dragged the sofa to the opposite side and sat down. What happened just now disrupted his plan, but the emotional card had to continue to be played. With actual evidence, maybe he could break through this guy's psychological defense.
After all, he really couldn't think of a better way to make a person who wanted to die speak.
"I remember that you just said that you admitted to killing a wandering warbler, right?"
"Definitely not Martha, because when I mentioned the nine-pound gold coin left by the murderer at the scene, you acted very strange. You also said that the refugees from Eastern Europe are just locusts."
Hearing Lu Li's words, Sigurd didn't react at all. He just sat sideways on the sofa, listening silently, occasionally wiping the blood stains that overflowed from his nose.
"Don't look up..."
Duke glanced at Mr. Lasker, carried the tool box, and walked over to stop the suspect's bleeding.
"Is it the one last night? Don't deny it in a hurry."
Lu Li saw that Sigur ignored him and continued to talk to himself.
"There was a small red spot on the letter. At that time, everyone was busy looking for the burial place and didn't pay much attention to it. I also took it for granted that it was the victim's blood."
"Looking at it now, I'm afraid it's the red paint used for painting. As long as I bring some back from your studio and identify it, I'll know if it's the same thing."
Hearing this, Duke, who was helping to stop the bleeding, also stopped and added: "In fact, it is easy to distinguish between blood and paint."
Hearing this, Sigurd's body suddenly shook and he turned his head, deliberately avoiding Duke's sight.
Action, all in sight.
At this time, Lu Li felt confident. He returned the gun to George and told him, "Mr. Lasker, please go out first. Duke and I will be fine here."
"Okay, please be safe..."
He was about to say a few more words, but when he saw Lu Li stood up and opened the door, he could only retreat.
"Sigur, I think you are actually unwilling to take the blame for others. You just want to retaliate for the actions of me, Professor Duke, and Mr. Lasker, so you choose to remain silent. Please forgive me for not confirming that you are a murderer. Who can remain rational under such circumstances?”
Just in time, Duke finished the work of stopping the bleeding and also pulled a sofa over and sat on the side.
This is a very simple psychological suggestion: we are sitting casually, just having a conversation, not an interrogation.
"You know that guy, right?"
——————
downstairs.
The sullen Mr. George Lasker saw an old woman shakily walking towards the apartment.
"Sir, are you here to arrest Sickert?"
Her mother, Ellie, was very doting on Sigurd, but this kind of love was very abnormal. She often said that Sigurd's affected area was very cute and bought him little girl's clothes.
Because she is bisexual, she has a different kind of love for this cute-looking child that is different from motherly love.
However, in Sickert's view, this kind of love is a kind of gender doubt. He can easily regard his mother as an accomplice of those who insult him, and it is easy to blame all the sins he has suffered on his mother - after all, he is She gave him it all.
