Chapter 147 The news of the purchase

In Mrs. Sato's small villa, Luo Feng and I finally came up with an idea.

Under the attack of the three of us, Mrs. Sato was thrown into confusion and could not remain calm. She had to tell the truth of the matter.

And that so-called truth is also the important clue that Luo Feng and I want to know...

So, what clues can we get from the little old lady's mouth this afternoon?

Mrs. Sato just resisted at first. She told us that the purchase of the small brick building was Edward's idea alone. He had no money, so he persuaded Mrs. Sato to lend him money and let him invest.

Edward lied and said that as long as he bought that small brick building, not only would he get five houses for free, but he would also get a huge surprise?!

Mrs. Sato has no interest in buying a haunted house for investment, and she doesn't have the money to do so.

But when Edward said there was a surprise, Mrs. Sato asked him curiously, what did surprise mean?!

As a result, Edward added to the problem by saying that buying a small building was not the point. The point was that there were many boxes of gold bars hidden under the small building.

Are there gold bars buried under the building?

This really surprised Mrs. Sato!

Mrs. Sato still doesn't have much thought for doing this. After all, she is quite old, and money is not a strong temptation for her.

But after all, Edward is her only relative in the world. If she can help during her lifetime, then she should. It won't cost much anyway.

So Mrs. Sato felt soft-hearted and agreed.

This is why Mrs. Sato and Edward watched my live broadcast in the small building that night.

But unexpectedly, after the live broadcast, Lao Chen did not ask the customers in the group, but quietly sold the small building, allowing others to get in first, so Edward was very angry!

This is not a problem of a building, but of a large amount of wealth. Who wouldn’t be angry if it were replaced?

Even if she didn't buy it, it didn't matter to Mrs. Sato. She also advised Edward that wealth depends on fate. Don't always think about the wonderful things that fall into the sky. Why not do something down-to-earth?

The matter of buying a house went south, and Edward did not stay with Mrs. Sato to take care of her, so Mrs. Sato has not seen Edward these days.

As for whether Edward was really killed and whether the male corpse was really Edward, Mrs. Sato shook her head and said she didn't know...

There seemed to be no loopholes in what Mrs. Sato said.

I listened very carefully and didn't notice anything wrong.

Luo Feng should be like me. He listened very carefully. Mrs. Sato's answer was indeed flawless.

But the feeling it gives me...

What do you mean?

Mrs. Sato's confession seemed too concise and to the point, as if it had been prepared in advance.

When an average person is recalling something, even if he is not suspicious, there should at least be some minor inconsistencies or flaws in his answers.

But Mrs. Sato spoke very comprehensively, as if she had used the simplest sentences to summarize the most complex things to the greatest extent.

This kind of super generalization ability cannot be said to be very powerful, but it may be difficult to say it in one breath in a very short period of time.

I think you should have thought through all the questions to be answered in your mind in advance, and then answered the questions by avoiding the most important ones.

If this is the case, is this a big problem in itself?

Could it be that Mrs. Sato might have anticipated in advance that the police would visit her home today?

If the speculation is true, it also shows that Mrs. Sato has already known about Edward's death!

So……

Edward's death is very likely to have something to do with Mrs. Sato...

However, Mrs. Sato, a little old woman, shouldn't have the motive to kill her younger relatives?

If you continue to think along this line of thinking, I'm afraid it will become more and more terrifying...

But...

These thoughts just flashed through my mind quickly and can only be regarded as my own wild guesses.

Ignoring these wild guesses, let’s talk about Mrs. Sato’s side...

After listening to Mrs. Sato's simple statement, it was obvious that she had shied away from all her responsibilities and passed the entire blame on Edward.

These don't seem to be of much help in solving the case.

The cunning Mrs. Sato barely told me what I wanted to know.

At this time, I couldn't help it anymore, so I just broke the casserole and asked what happened.

"Mrs. Sato, what we want to know most is, how did Edward know that there were gold bars under the small building?" I asked loudly.

I asked very directly, because this is the key!!!

Luo Feng didn't seem to have thought of this problem. He turned around and looked at me again, and quietly gave me a thumbs up.

However, when I asked the question, Mrs. Sato suddenly closed her eyes. She took a long breath and said, "I'm a little tired today and can't continue to answer questions. Can you let me take a break..."

The more she behaves like this, it means that she is unwilling to say anything and the more guilty she feels!

However, wouldn’t it be over without just saying “I’m tired”?

Do you think this is a TV series?

In front of Luo Feng and Bai Xue, the black and white evil pair, is it so easy to get away with it?

I couldn't help snorting coldly, and continued to say to Mrs. Sato: "What you just said, to say it is ugly, is of no use at all. It is equivalent to saying in vain that we don't care about your and Edward's relatives. We care more.

, how did Edward know that there was something under the small building..."

"Yes!" Luo Feng also had a determined expression on his face, "Please make it clear, otherwise we will definitely not leave!!!"

I saw that Mrs. Sato started to massage her temples with her fingers. She must be really tired.

After all, Luo Feng and I took turns asking her questions, which was quite taxing on her head.

After waiting for half a minute, Mrs. Sato became frightened and knew that we would not leave unless she said something useful.

She had no choice but to speak again: "I...I do know some things, but those were all said by Edward alone, so I can't guarantee the authenticity..."

"Very good, then please tell me!" Luo Feng asked coaxingly.

It's good to hear that Mrs. Sato is relieved. At least it's better than saying nothing.

Speaking is a science, but even the smartest people can find loopholes as long as they talk too much. This is the truth that too many words lead to many mistakes.

"Edward said that the reason why he knew the secret below the small building was..." Mrs. Sato paused before continuing, "because... someone sold him the information, and he paid a lot of money to buy it.

This news..."

News you can buy with money?!

hiss……

Luo Feng and I immediately looked at each other...

None of us expected that Mrs. Sato would say such an inexplicable thing?

Could it be...
Chapter completed!
