From the pure blood dragon clan, I started to become a human being

Chapter 483 Death
Nine p.m.

Jiang Yuan returned to Reinhert Manor. He first made a phone call. As for the issue of armed merchant ships, Sabine said that he would deal with it. Wim Reinhert was actually working as a pirate. If there was a company background to support laundering and landing, , the other party has no reason to refuse, and at most only needs some concessions on details.

Today is Friday. Before the end of work, Sabine, as the butler, convened a meeting with the servants as usual to summarize the situation of the past week. Jiang Yuan also showed up and paid the weekly salary in person.

After the short meeting, there were only two people left in the living room. Sabine brought warm milk. In order to increase the income from animal husbandry, the farmers publicized the nutritional value of dairy products in newspapers, and the largest landowner was naturally the royal family. , so drinking milk has gradually become a habit for middle-class people in society when they get up early and before going to bed.

"I want the extraordinary characteristics of a cold-blooded person. Where can I find it?" Jiang Yuan picked up the cup and took a sip, then said, "Next time, please change it to wine."

Sabine silently wrote down the request and answered: "Secret gatherings of extraordinary people usually have the circulation of artifacts from the power system, but it is not safe. Most of them are places where strong people keep their prey. In addition, those belonging to Whitehall The secret service organization - King's Sword will regularly issue wanted notices and offer rewards to those who commit crimes. I will help you get the catalog tomorrow, but if there is a suitable target, please make sure to let me be there."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in the living room rang. Sabine answered. Opposite was the Inspectorate of the Port Fortress.

"...Have Mr. Reinherit come to Langley Manor immediately. A murder has occurred here. I am the Inspector General."

"Wait a moment, the master and I are going over right now."

"Sir, there has been a murder at Langley Manor, and I'm afraid you will be involved."

The head of security in the port fortress took matters into his own hands, and the inspector general and city councilor had recently appeared frequently in public in order to run for one of the six hundred places in the House of Commons.

The two got out of the car. Jiang Yuan took off his top hat and gave it to Sabine as a sign of condolences. The latter put the hat into his suitcase and followed the master into the living room. The inspector general was sitting on the sofa, puffing away. At present, criminal investigation technology is backward, and the handling of cases relies more on violent interrogation and detectives. The capital has a population of five million, but the number of police detectives does not exceed 200. The resulting criminal reform collapsed due to the resignation of the prime minister.

Seeing Sabine, the inspector changed his lazy attitude, stood up and came over to shake hands.

"You seem to have aged a few years."

Sabine hung up the phone, turned around and took down the knight's sword that was originally used as a decoration in the living room.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. At least my sword is still sharp."

The two walked out of the living room. The groom got a silver coin tip for working overtime. Ever since the Iron Duke submitted his resignation, the Royal Capital Council has been in chaos. Power has been reshuffled, affecting every corner of society. Countless local city councilors have begun to move towards Thanks to Congressional efforts, at this critical juncture when candidates need votes, the priorities of central and local governments have subtly changed.

The carriage arrived at Langley Manor, and the police had cordoned off the scene. The senior auditors were social celebrities. In view of the encouragement of colonial development in the "Pioneer Act", this group of intellectuals had the opportunity to enter the city hall and take important positions after retirement. In other words , retirement is the beginning of their career.

"This is Anzel, tsk, he looks really good. How was your stay in Dongyas?"

"It doesn't matter."

The inspector laughed feigning magnanimity, then turned to look at someone.

Sabine lowered his head and explained the reason. He was a knight who had ignited two Force nodes. The wanted criminals he usually hunted would be directly handed over to the Inspector General as a political achievement. The relationship could be traced back to the first generation, the audit of East Asia Trading Company. This is why the number of staff came into being.

"Very relaxing."

Jiang Yuan shook hands with the other party.

"My lord, what happened here?" Sabine asked. The inspector general took out two cigars and divided them, and said: "Langley was killed. His throat was slit with an antique sword. The murderer has been initially identified. The time of death was determined to be between nine-thirty and nine-forty-five." Then you and Anzel go to the scene to take notes, after all, he was here tonight."

Sabine bowed slightly in greeting, and the two came to the study, where the recorder was describing Langley's state after his death.

"May I ask Mr. Anzel, why are you here tonight."

"Mr. Langley invited me to negotiate about the armed merchant ship joining the company. The contract I signed is here. I left at about 8:30. The servants should be impressed by the specifics."

Sabine put down his suitcase and showed a special gun permit. The record-keeper's pupils shrank and he allowed the other party to take the file.

The police's efficiency in handling the case is very good, and the preliminary investigation of the case has been completed.

The cause of the matter was that Nina and Anzel behaved ambiguously this morning, which aroused Jerry's dissatisfaction. Jerry told his stepfather what had happened, hoping that he would drive Anzel out of the company.

Langley found his niece, and a quarrel broke out. Jerry could not accept his stepfather's scolding Nina, and the two broke up.

Later, Anzel arrived at the manor and the two negotiated.

At nine o'clock, the milk was heated, and the secretary carried the milk to the study. However, because Langley seemed to be arguing with Jerry about pocket money inside the room, he did not go in. When he was delivering the milk at nine-ten, the secretary met the man at the door. Miss Nina, the other party said: Uncle said not to disturb him tonight.

The secretary confirmed that Mr. Langley who was seen in the small window was still alive at the time, and the maid in the living room also saw Miss Nina walking down the stairs immediately after.

Jerry talked with his secretary, and after learning that someone not only escaped punishment but also made a lot of money, he broke into the study and lost his mind during the dispute and brutally murdered his stepfather. The murder weapon was an antique sword collected in the silver table in the living room. .

Jerry has confessed to this.

"It's really disgusting." Sabine sighed and handed the record back.

The recorder watched the other party's movements nervously, and was relieved to see that the non-staff operator had no intention of causing damage.

At the end of the transcript, the two said goodbye to the inspector general and left the manor.

The coachman got three days' leave immediately. Sabine got on the shaft of the coach and drove the horse, saying slightly reproachfully:

"Master, it's too dangerous for you to do this. Once someone with authority from the regular camp intervenes, the truth is likely to be exposed. Investigators and psychics can seize clues that ordinary people can't see. Astrologers may be able to directly target you."

"I said, it doesn't matter." Jiang Yuan opened the suitcase with a calm expression. Inside the top hat was Langley's dictation recorder.

"Go directly to the port outside the city. After tonight, the matter is a foregone conclusion."

"You are so disgusting." Sabine was actually quite dissatisfied. The master obviously did not understand his significance to the Reinhert family. There were so few people. If he failed to get married, he would become a murderer. He would simply die in peace.
