Chapter 620 619. This is how detective novels are written
Looking at Lily who was lying on the sofa and breathing normally again, Lu Tian looked at the people in the room.
Now several people are together again.
As for the servants, they were not called upon and were still doing their jobs.
"This house contains the wealth of Taoist Heming. No wonder my father has become much healthier and younger since he moved in."
Rum glanced at Lily, who had her eyes closed tightly, and said awkwardly.
"Mr. Stone, you're going to help us find that thing, right?"
"I can only promise to do my best, but if I encounter a major danger, I may have to re-evaluate the price of this commission."
Stone replied calmly.
"Is she possessed by a ghost?"
Ms. Emma asked curiously.
"That's right."
Stone responded.
"This house not only contains Taoist Heming's wealth, but also Taoist Heming's curse. If the curse cannot be avoided, everyone will die, including you and me."
"But these servants, they have lived here for many years, and the housekeeper, they have not been in danger, so what do you mean?"
His words made both Emma and Rum tremble slightly. They looked suspiciously at every corner of the room, fearing that something would suddenly jump out and kill them.
"Should we wait for Master Byron to come?"
Emma asked.
"It's not certain when he will come. For everyone's safety, I need to check your rooms first to make sure there are no problems."
Stone said again.
It is obviously impossible for everyone to sleep in Lily's room, and these people will not agree. Everyone will eventually return to their own rooms, so Stone will use this as a reason to check the rooms of these people first to make sure
Taoist Heming's relics are not in their house.
"That's good."
Although he was a little reluctant, Rum took another look at the pinch marks on Lily's neck, swallowed, and finally agreed to Stone's proposal.
Emma did not object. Only Gothe, Browning's friend, rejected Stone.
"I don't like people coming into my house, and I'm not afraid of those monsters."
The man, who was burly and looked more like a thug than a businessman, said.
Stone was not persistent. He and Lu Jian checked Rum and Emma's house together. These two people did not usually live here. The house was very clean and no clues were found.
"Maybe Lily's room is the key."
Stone guessed.
"Only she encountered strange events. Either she is special, or there is something wrong with the room she lives in."
Lu Tan said, feeling a little inspired again.
"Speaking of which, how did Browning die? He looked so healthy and young, but he died suddenly."
"As you said, what Taoist Heming has mastered is not the real art of immortality. It just makes Browning's body look young. He is not really rejuvenated. Browning is still a sixty-year-old man inside.
An old man, he enjoys and indulges like a young man every day, and his body will definitely not be able to support it."
Stone took a puff of smoke from his pipe and chuckled.
"According to the doctor's diagnosis, Browning's body has suffered a very serious failure, and his stomach, liver, and kidneys are close to failure. They only see this kind of situation in patients who have suffered from serious diseases.
"
"Why, do you think Browning's death has something to do with his family?"
Stone asked Lu Jian.
"Not really. I'm wondering why Taoist Heming's will chose to let Browning die at this point in time."
Lu Tiao murmured.
"No, you made a mistake. It was not Taoist Heming's will that caused Browning to die at this time, but because Browning died at this time, our mission was arranged until now."
Stone laughed.
"Our mission in the Quiet Land was deliberately arranged by the great gods. They will definitely let us arrive at the most suitable place at the best moment."
"That's true."
Lu Tan nodded slightly and did not continue to struggle.
"Gothe didn't let us check his room. What did he want to hide?"
Stone raised new doubts.
"As Browning's business partner, he is not a member of Browning's family and has no say in the inheritance. He was only invited by Rum and others to attend the final farewell. Now after learning about this
If you have an inheritance at Stormwind Villa, you may be greedy."
"But I think Gothe's suspicion may not be that big."
Lu Tan said suddenly.
"Why?"
Stone was puzzled.
"Because he is the most suspicious. Normally, the guy who behaves the most suspiciously from the beginning is usually not the mastermind in the end. He usually has other secrets to confuse the detective's view, create smoke and mislead the reasoning."
Lu Tan replied.
"Where did you get this theory from?"
Stone felt that Lu Tiao's words seemed to make some sense, but also seemed to be complete nonsense.
"That's what's written in detective novels."
Lu Tan said matter-of-factly.
"."
Although Stone had known before that Lu Tan could sometimes think outside the box, after not seeing him for many years, he still underestimated the man in front of him.
"Do you think there is a possibility that Gothe knows Byron, or that Byron is hiding in Gothe's house now? Byron deceived Gothe, saying that he could control the resurrected Browning to a certain extent and could control Browning.
Ronning's industry and wealth were transferred to Gaode, so he came with him this time and wanted to reap benefits from it?"
To change the subject, Stone said.
"There is such a possibility, we can ask other people."
Lu Tiao nodded.
"Okay, let's go find Emma first. I'll talk to you later. Don't talk randomly if you have nothing to do."
Stone warned.
He now somewhat understood why Drizzt had such a complicated expression when he talked about his journey with Lu Tan.
"no problem."
The two people came to the living room. Rum and Emma were here, and there were servants serving them. After briefly explaining their purpose, the two of them and Emma went to the next room together. This kind of study next to the living room is generally used.
During private talks, sometimes some erotic incidents may occur.
"Please relax, Ms. Emma, we are just trying to better investigate Mr. Browning's legacy. I have a few questions to ask you."
Stone had just taken out his notebook, and before his hands were even warm, Lu Tran spoke directly.
"What do you think of Gothe? Does he have any grudge against your father? Does he know Byron?"
"ah?"
This woman with heavy makeup was asked by Lu Jian.
