After interrogating Colonel Mel, Sheriff Chandler sent Evan out of the police station. Before Evan was about to leave, Sheriff Chandler suddenly stopped Evan.
"Pastor Bruce." At this time, his expression was very serious, almost a little serious.
"Do you know why I want you to interrogate this case?" He looked straight at Evan with a confused expression.
Evan was stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I'm very grateful for your attention to me."
Listening to what he said, Sheriff Chandler twitched the corners of his mouth uncomfortably, but in the end he just sighed and said in a low voice, "I am very grateful for your help to me."
He let go of the hand that grabbed Evan's sleeve and said nothing.
Evan glanced at Sheriff Chandler suspiciously, but finally turned and left.
Sheriff Chandler watched Evan walk away, and his expression suddenly became a little complicated. Although he had mastered most of the evidence in this case, after experiencing the previous two cases, he found that he could no longer use the same mentality as before. Come to face other cases, maybe it's just a little bit worse, but the outcome of things is very different, he started to be a little scared, so even if things are so clear this time, he still hopes that Evan can come, with an outsider's eyes , to discover the problem that he couldn't find, this was the thought in his heart, but when he looked at Evan's face, he found that he couldn't say it at all.
Sheriff Chandler bowed his head and gave a wry smile. Perhaps it was his ridiculous self-esteem. He turned around and walked into the police station. He will investigate this case carefully.
When Evan came to the corner again, he called a rental carriage and directly reported the name of Cornwall Manor. For this matter, he still needed the strength of the Duke.
When Evan arrived at Cornwall Manor, Steward Chris was hailing a few lower-level servants to move fodder, and when he saw Evan coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Mr. Pastor." He thought about Evan and nodded slightly.
Evan nodded and whispered, "Where's the Duke?"
Butler Chris pursed his lips unnaturally: "The Duke is doing business upstairs, and he doesn't want to be disturbed." Butler Chris looked at Evan's words meaningfully.
Evan couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He turned his head and glanced upstairs with a heavy look in his eyes.
"I see, I'll wait downstairs." Evan suddenly discovered at this moment that the relationship between him and him was not as close as he thought, and he almost forgot that that person was the Duke, he had It has its own power, its own identity, and its own unknown side.
Evan was sitting in the living room with the black tea brought to him by Butler Chris, but at this time it gradually lost its temperature. The gurgling smoke had faded long ago, but Evan didn't even want to take a sip. , He just looked at the Bible in his hand with thoughtful eyes. If anyone looked at him, he would find that he hadn't turned the page for a long time.
Until the cup of black tea on the table turned completely cold, and finally there was a sound from upstairs, Evan looked up subconsciously, but saw Duke Wilson with a serious look on his face that he had never seen before walking from the corridor to the stairs , behind him was an ordinary-looking young man, his face was slightly pale, and he looked very nervous.
Evan's heart suddenly beat violently at this time, and his eyes have been following the figure of Duke Wilson. He has never seen such a Duke before. He may have been indifferent before, but he was not like this. Shi was so indifferent, there was almost no emotion on his face, but there was a bloodthirsty light in his eyes.
Such Duke Wilson makes people feel dangerous, but it makes Evan feel - exciting!
He couldn't help licking his lower lip, and the bloodthirsty factor that had been hidden in his heart suddenly started to move.
"Evan!" Duke Wilson finally saw Evan sitting on the sofa, a soft look suddenly appeared on his face, the expression on his face hardly changed, but the change in the look in his eyes alone made his whole The outlines have softened, and the sharp appearance just now seems to be just an illusion.
Evan looked slightly dazed, then smiled and stood up from the chair.
"Why are you here?" Duke Wilson's eyes showed joy: "I still think you have gone back."
Evan just smiled gently: "Originally I went back, but Sheriff Chandler invited me to watch Colonel Mel's interrogation, which was delayed for a while."
"Interrogation?" Duke Wilson's eyes flickered: "Did he say something?" He pinched the cuff, but the expression on his face looked very flat.
Evan didn't notice the difference between Duke Wilson, and when he was just worried about Colonel Mel, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, he's okay, just blindly said that he was wronged, Sheriff Chandler is not without Proper people."
Duke Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and said warmly, "That's good." As he said that, he winked at Kevin who was behind him, and Kevin immediately backed out.
Evan glanced at the direction where Kevin disappeared, his eyes darkened slightly, what was he doing behind his back? The unease in Evan's heart grew bigger, but his face was still gentle: "Who is that gentleman?"
Evan's question made Duke Wilson's originally smiling face froze. He took a closer look at Evan's face and found that there was nothing wrong with him, so he said warmly: "That's one of my staff, who came to me today. Report on the events of the manor in the past few days."
Staff? Evan is very skeptical, he is very sure that even in the chaotic London, Duke Wilson has a very tight control over Cornwall Manor, and letters are sent every day, and now that he is back, does he still need a staff to come to him? Did he report what he already knew? Even if it is necessary, the timing should not be today, I am afraid they should report on the first day they come back.
"I see." Evan smiled slightly: "What about Mr. Ederson before? Why didn't he come?" As far as Evan knew, that Ederson was a person whom Duke Wilson trusted very much, and now he suddenly changed As a person, Evan naturally has doubts in his heart.
Duke Wilson didn't expect that Evan could still remember Ederson. He couldn't help but stop at the words in his mouth, but in the end he just said foolishly: "Ederson is ill... What's the matter with you this time?" In front of Wen, he suddenly became a tongue-tied child, almost unable to speak, and the topic changed very bluntly, not like his usual look.
And Evan also saw that he didn't really want to talk about this matter, and he no longer persecuted it. Some things still need to be understood in moderation, so he followed his words and said: "That's it, I came to you today because I wanted to stop. I want you to accompany me to visit Mrs. Mel, I think this matter should be a big blow to Mrs."
Evan said the point, but Duke Wilson heard what he meant. Since Colonel Mel has no breakthrough here, he can only break through from Mrs. Mel.
"What you said is very true, I almost ignored it." Duke Wilson smiled in a low voice. He looked at Evan's slightly deserted face, although he knew that Evan was trying to help him get rid of the suspicion of Colonel Mel. , but his attention to strange women still made his heart a little sour, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry. Although the two of them had a close relationship for a long time, they have never been intimate since that night.
Thinking of this, Duke Wilson couldn't help feeling a little depressed. Duke Wilson moved at will, walked to Evan, suddenly grabbed his hand by his side, and said in a low voice, "Are you worried about Mrs. Mel? ?"
Evan was a little surprised by Duke Wilson's actions, and couldn't help but smile: "She is a lady, this matter is a horrible thing for you and me, it is even more terrible for her, and Colonel Mel Still your friend, I don't want you to be embarrassed."
Listening to Evan worrying about him, Duke Wilson's heart eased, and he couldn't help but smile at Evan: "Thank you, Evan."
Evan looked at Duke Wilson for a long time, but suddenly leaned his head and kissed his side face, he put his lips to his ear, and whispered: "Charles, I don't want to hear you thank me, there is no relationship between us. Thank you."
Duke Wilson was flushed by Evan's sudden action, but his hands were tightly wrapped around Evan's waist, and now Evan's slightly hot breath spurted in his ears, and he couldn't help it for a while. She shrank, but her hands tightened around Duke Wilson's waist.
"I see." He said this sentence with some difficulty, and now there is a fire in his body, and he almost exhausted his willpower to let the fire dormant temporarily.
Hearing his slightly trembling voice, Evan couldn't help but chuckled a few times, pushed his shoulders away, looked at his face, and said in a low voice, "Let's go see Mrs. Mel, Colonel Mel is now It's a mess, maybe we can get some useful information from this lady."
Duke Wilson nodded, looking a little stiff.
Butler Chris quickly prepared the carriage, and Evan and Duke Wilson rode the carriage towards Colonel Mel's house.
In fact, Evan had already thought about taking the duke there. The duke's position in Delan Lier was self-evident, and things would be easier if the duke was there.
Sure enough, Duke Wilson's carriage emblem was like a nameplate for customs clearance at Colonel Mel's house. No one dared to stop his carriage, so Duke Wilson drove straight in and came to Colonel Mel's castle.
Evan was a little surprised when he saw this castle again. Needless to say, when he came last time, it was resplendent. It was more of the kind of vitality exuding from the inside out, but at this time and then there was Earth-shaking changes, the castle now looks like a shaky seedling in a violent storm, with the bitter and bitter rain of doom coming everywhere.
Evan was only stunned for a moment, and was led in by the winning butler. When he entered, Evan's feeling was even more profound. The panic of the servants around him seemed to spread into the air. Breathing was a little stagnant.
Evan and Duke Wilson were arranged to wait in the living room. Duke Wilson has not let go of his brows since he came in. In his opinion, Mrs. Mel is not a qualified hostess of the manor. Colonel Mel is only in prison for a day. , this whole family is like the sky has collapsed. It is absurd for her to manage like this.
Just when Evan and Duke Wilson were thinking about each other, suddenly there was a noise on the stairs, and they all looked upstairs, only to see a thin and somewhat excessive woman walking down.
