Aaron smiled happily when he heard someone complimenting him. He felt that he was in a good state now.
For him, when he killed the woman, he also killed a part of himself and was reborn as another person.
This feeling was like cutting the umbilical cord. The moment he cut his throat and mutilated his body, it meant that he had severed the bond between himself and ordinary people. After defeating his weak self, Aaron became more confident.
Unfortunately, no one could empathize with him. Lu Li pretended to be happy and asked, "Tell me why you killed Martha. Was it under the instructions of your friends or on your own initiative?"
After finishing speaking, Lu Li regretted a little. He still hadn't mastered the skills of talking to madmen.
However, Aaron Kosminski, who was addicted to his own world, actually answered, with an extremely excited tone: "If it weren't for that gentleman, it might have taken me a long time to think of such a good idea... Hum... Haha... My The knife is so sharp and so good that I really want to get to work as soon as I get the chance.”
Putting aside the sinister smile in the middle and the psychological monologue at the end, it was obvious that he had been guided.
All the fingers pointed at Albert Victor. This guy gathered some mentally ill people around him, and starting from the day before yesterday, he began to kill the Orioles in an organized and planned way.
Snap...
The sound of cups and saucers being smashed sounded not far away.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
The old woman screamed and rushed forward, pushing Aaron away.
"I'm sorry, Aaron's brain is not working very well lately and he always likes to talk nonsense. You two should leave first and come back when his condition improves."
Lu Li shrugged: "Guests are welcome, but please tell me who the guest at home is? You might as well invite him out to meet you."
"no guest."
The old lady was stunned for a moment, looking embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. Our family is Polish refugees, and our reputation is not very good. The neighbors nearby don't want to see us, let alone friends..."
Lance suddenly pulled out the Winchester, pointed the dark gun at the old woman, and cursed: "Old guy, you'd better be more honest. I've disliked you since I walked in."
"Whose coat is that hanging on the visitor's coat rack? Don't tell us we misplaced it."
Clothes are also divided into classes——
Workers usually wear suspenders, and ordinary citizens and low-key people like to wear windbreakers. As for the orthodox nobles, they will wear a waistcoat outside their shirt, which is of exquisite texture.
On the coat rack at the door, the vest with silver ornaments and gold thread is worth a lot of money.
Because of this, Lu Li let Aaron Kosminsky go upstairs so happily. After all, when there was a big fish, who would care about a small fish.
"Now that I hear it, it's time for you to come out."
After finishing speaking, Lu Li raised his eyes to look at the entrance of the corridor, and added in his heart: His Royal Highness Prince Albert Victor of Wales.
The old woman's eyes became more and more frightened. What on earth is going on? Her third son suddenly made the acquaintance of a rich man who not only visited him often, but also brought valuable gifts every time.
Not only that, after tonight's visit, two plainclothes police detectives followed.
In fact, she already had the answer in her mind.
It's just that, out of protection for his youngest son, he is still unwilling to admit it.
"Sir, I really don't have any guests at home. That dress was picked up..."
The next second, her voice paused.
"amazing."
In the dimly lit corridor, a tall man slowly walked out.
"As expected of a famous detective from the Far East, Mr. Lu Li, Sigurd must have been taken away."
"It seems that you are the final winner in this cat-and-mouse game."
Lu Li had never met Albert, but he felt that the royal heir should have the following qualities: The appearance does not have to be very handsome, but the body must be upright. No matter what the situation, he will try his best to maintain that dignity instead of having a slumped face.
As he spoke, the crown prince had already arrived in the living room. Lance still held the shotgun in both hands, but slightly deflected the muzzle from facing the old woman to facing Albert.
For common people, the royal family is still aloof, but for some powerful people, their mansions can be entered by wind or rain, but the king cannot enter until they get permission.
Before leaving, Mr. Lasker told Lance to protect Lu Li, so no matter what, he would defend his loyalty to his master to the death.
"Don't be nervous. I don't have any guards around me. After all, killing people with followers is either crazy or stupid."
Victor spread his hands and became abnormally calm. If Lu Li hadn't seen that there was no place to hide a gun on him, he would have found cover long ago.
"So, you have decided to plead guilty..."
At this moment, Lu Li held the cane tightly, confirming that he could bring it down with one blow.
"I just killed a few wandering warblers. What's the crime?"
"Who do you think can judge me? Which judge dares to judge me?"
When Victor answered, his tone was very calm, as if he was chatting or drinking coffee with someone. After he finished speaking, he stared at Lu Li, trying to see something on his face, such as frustration or anger.
However, there was no feedback whatsoever.
Lu Li acted more calmly and said in an outsider's tone: "The momentum is good, but it's a pity that you have found the wrong audience. I am just a detective and I am not responsible for sending prisoners to the gallows."
After two days and two nights of busy work, although there were twists and turns along the way, he and Duke still delivered the most perfect answer sheet.
Of course, this would not be possible without the help of Mr. Conan Doyle and even the grumpy uncle George.
At this moment, Lu Li felt like a top student who had finished his test papers in advance. He could use the rest of his time as he pleased, as long as he didn't waste his time.
In other words.
You do whatever you want, I am invincible.
Seeing this, Victor fell silent. Everything was different from what he imagined.
After a long time.
"Don't you have anything to say?"
Hearing this, Lu Li smiled generously: "His Royal Highness, what do you want to hear, I will tell you."
Don't you just long for dignity? I will give it to you.
As a time traveler, no one in this era understands Versailles literature better than Lu Li.
At this time, no one knew what Victor was thinking. They saw him straightening his clothes and saying: "Mr. Detective, you are very interesting. I wish I had known you earlier. Maybe we can become like-minded friends."
"No, no, even if we met a hundred and thirty years in advance, we wouldn't be able to get together."
After finishing speaking, Lu Li was too lazy to say anything more and turned around to leave, leaving Victor behind.
"Sir, wait for me!"
About two minutes later, Lance waved his horsewhip, and the carriage with the kerosene lamp on it drove in the direction it came from.
