Guidebook for the Dark Duke Chapter 105: Different thoughts
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 point his expression was serious, almost 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 am very grateful for your attention to me."
Hearing this, Sheriff Chandler twitched the corners of his mouth uncomfortably, but in the end he just sighed and said in a low voice, "I'm very grateful for your help."
He let go of Evan's sleeve and said nothing.
Evan glanced at Sheriff Chandler suspiciously, but eventually 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 first two cases, he found that he could no longer use the previous With that mentality to face other cases, maybe it was only a little worse, but the outcome of the matter was completely different, and he began to be a little scared, so even if things were so clear this time, he still hoped that Evan could come and use a The eyes of an outsider came to discover the problem that he couldn't find. This was his innermost thoughts, 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 because of 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 calling for a few lower-level footmen to move the hay. 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 has his own power, his own identity, and his 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 original gurgling smoke had already faded, but Evan took a sip. He didn't mean it either. 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. He walked to the stairs in the corridor, and 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. He may have been cold before, but he also There is no indifference like this time, there is almost no emotion on his face, but there is a bloodthirsty light in his eyes.
Duke Wilson like this 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 hiding in his heart suddenly started to move.
"Evan!" Duke Wilson finally saw Evan sitting on the sofa, and a soft look suddenly appeared on his face. The expression on his face hardly changed, but it was just the change in the look in his eyes. It softened his entire outline, and the sharp appearance just now seemed 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 thought you were going back."
Evan just smiled gently: "It was originally going 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?"
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 saying wrong, Sheriff Chandler Not a person without measure."
Duke Wilson breathed a sigh of relief, and said warmly, "That's good." As he said, he winked at Kevin behind him, and Kevin immediately retreated out of it.
Evan glanced at the direction in which Kevin disappeared, his eyes dimmed slightly, what was he doing behind his back? The unease in Evan's heart became bigger and bigger, but his face was still gentle: "Who is that gentleman?"
Evan's questioning made Duke Wilson's originally smiling face stiffen. 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, today Come and report to me about the manor these days."
A 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.
"So it is." 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. Now that the person has suddenly changed, Evan naturally has doubts in his heart.
Duke Wilson didn't expect Evan to still remember Ederson, and he couldn't help but sighed, but finally he just said foolishly: "Ederson is ill... What's the matter with you this time? ?" In front of Evan, he suddenly became a tongue-tied child, almost unable to speak, and the topic was changed very stiffly, 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 also followed his words and said: "That's it, I'm coming to you today. , I want you to accompany me to visit Mrs. Mel, I think this matter should be a very big blow to Mrs."
What Evan said was the end, but Duke Wilson heard what he meant. Since Colonel Mel has no breakthrough here, he can only break through from Mrs. Mel.
"You're right, I almost ignored it." Duke Wilson chuckled 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 Mel The colonel's suspicion, but his attention to the strange woman 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. pass.
Thinking of this, Duke Wilson couldn't help feeling a little depressed, Duke Wilson moved at will, walked to Evan, suddenly grabbed his hand hanging by his side, and said in a low voice: "You are very worried about May Mrs. Er?"
Evan was a little surprised at Duke Wilson's behavior, 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 Mayer is still your friend, and I don't want you to be embarrassed."
Listening to Evan worrying about him, Duke Wilson's heart was relieved, 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, we No thanks in between."
Duke Wilson was blushed by Evan's sudden action, but his hands were tightly around Evan's waist, and now Evan's slightly hot breath spurted in his ears, and he endured She shrank for a while, 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.
Evan listened to his slightly trembling voice, couldn't help but chuckled a few times, pushed his shoulders, looked at his face, and whispered: "Let's go to see Mrs. Mel, Mel. The Colonel is a mess right now, maybe we can get some useful information from this lady."
Duke Wilson nodded, looking stiff.
Butler Chris quickly prepared the carriage, and Evan and Duke Wilson rode in the carriage towards Colonel Mel's house.
Evan had actually thought about taking the duke to him for a long time. The duke's position in Delan Lier is self-evident. With the duke there, things will be easier.
As expected, Duke Wilson's carriage emblem is 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 the castle again. Needless to say, when he came last time, it was magnificent, it was more of the kind of vitality exuding from the inside out, but at this time it was different from that Time has turned upside down, and the castle now looks like a crumbling seedling in a raging storm, emitting the bitter rain of doomsday 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. His entire breathing became 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 manor hostess, Colonel Mel is just a After a day in prison, the whole family seemed to have collapsed. It was absurd for her to manage like this.
Just as Evan and Duke Wilson were thinking about each other, suddenly there was a noise on the stairs, they all looked upstairs, and saw a thin and somewhat excessive woman walking down.
