Chapter 950: Twenty years ago

"Since then, Elena has disappeared completely, as if she has never existed in this world..."
Speaking of the mysterious disappearance of her cousin, Sheriff Gleason couldn't conceal her grief.
"David Kauffman insisted that Elena was abducted by what she called "love husband", with a lot of money, and I don't know where to hide and be happy, but I don't think he is telling the truth."
"I have been insisting on investigating Jelena's disappearance over the years. The more I trace it, the more mysteries there are, and all the clues point to David Kaufman."
"His role in this case is not simple, but unfortunately I haven't got good evidence at present, and I can't prove that he should be responsible for the death of Jelena."
"Gleason, you suspect that David Kaufman murdered his wife. As for the elopement, are all the lies he made up to cover up the crime of killing his wife?"
Professional habits prompted Pinkerton to immediately make a series of darkest speculations.
Gleason nodded coldly.
"I do have such suspicions, but unfortunately, I have no evidence to accuse Kauffman of the crime of murdering his wife..."
The dialogue between the detective and the sergeant is a private exchange, and is not directly related to the case. Joan does not need to record, so he has time to listen to the changes in the face of Elder Samo while listening.
When Gleason pointed out that Kaufman was suspected of killing his wife, Joan noticed that Elder Moto's eyes were blinking and his facial muscles could not help shaking.
"Mr. Pinkerton! Mr. Sheriff!" Joan suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two of them. "With regard to the whereabouts of Mr. Kaufman's former wife, I think Elder Moto should know something, why don't we listen to him talk about this The inside story?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about..." The old toad bowed his head guilty.
"Old guy, you certainly know what we are talking about."
Pinkerton sneered and approached him two steps, pointing to the decayed della sitting against the wall, and then gestured a "cut throat" gesture on his neck.
Gleason turned to look out of the cabin window. Pinkerton's threatening of suspects, as a sergeant, cannot publicly support it, but he can pretend not to see...
The moral orientation of the Numa Toad society is not the same as that of the human society, but the emphasis on family and family is more than that.
Pinkerton threatened Gomoda with Gdra, as if pinching the weakness of the old toad, forcing him to bow his head again.
"Okay, I admit that I have done some dirty work for Kaufman, which includes dealing with his unfaithful wife."
Elder Chemodo sighed, and seemed to feel that the matter was not very glorious.
"My cooperation with Kauffman will start from 25 years ago, when Kauffman was just promoted to hotel manager, trying to get some results so that the boss can agree to marry his daughter."
"However, the small hotel he took over was really dilapidated, uncompetitive in the spa and the business was very bleak."
"Coffman was anxious to change the status quo, so he contacted me through a friend we shared and offered to hire me to intimidate his competitors."
"I don't need human gold and silver coins, but I need the magic crystal, so we negotiated to use the magic crystal to settle the bill. Afterwards, we took a group of sibling brothers, harassed the hotels that robbed Kaufman for business, and scared away local tourists... …"
"We have done this several times, and the results have been very good. People found that in that area, only the hotels operated by Kaufman were safe, and the business naturally became hot."
"When Kauffman was young, he was still very happy to do business. The bills that should be paid to me are not bad. We are all very satisfied with each other's cooperation."
"Since then, we have not contacted again, until five years later, David Kaufman came to me again and offered to hire me to do one thing, that is, to kill his unfaithful wife for him, and to seduce his wife. That little white face."
"So, did you kill poor Elena cruelly?" Sergeant Gleason asked grittedly.
"I don't have it!" Elder Chemodo blew up the "sound bag", "I did a lot of dirty work for Kaufman, but I haven't killed a woman, don't tarnish your reputation!"
"Why don't you know what a reputation you are, monsters?" Sergeant Gleason sneered.
Joan couldn't help coughing twice, and stopped writing.
"Mr. Sheriff, please allow me to make some explanations for the suspect. According to the tradition of the Numa Toad, an adult man, especially a man of noble origin, cannot kill women and children in any way, otherwise people will be regarded as cowards. , Tarnishing the honor of yourself and your family."
"Don't kill women and tadpoles," Elder Chemodor corrected. "The tadpoles go ashore and fade their tails, they are not children. We hold adult trials at the edge of the wetland. The prey we choose are all adult men in humans. Never start with your women and tadpoles."
"We humans, if we don't count sperm and fertilized eggs, there is no larval stage of metamorphic development of "tadpole" in the growth process." Qiao An solemnly refuted.
"Okay, okay! Now it's not time to discuss academic issues, don't you two pick each other."
Ted Pinkerton couldn't help crying and laughing, interrupting Joan and Elder Gemodo's debate on the topic of "tadpoles", indicating that they were right.
"Since you don't plan to kill Mrs. Elena, why take over Kaufman's assassination mission?"
"Because I need the magic crystal... the magic crystal is an indispensable material for making a magic wand, and it is also the currency circulating in our tribe." Chimoduo glanced at Joan resentfully, "my'water wand'," Was snatched by the little mage."
Joan's face was hot and he quickly turned to look out the window, whistling and pretending to look at the scenery.
"I don't want to kill women by myself, and I don't want to offend Kaufman as a gold prince, so I came up with a compromise and invited my elder sister Gesrin to perform this infamous task together."
"Geslyn is the mother of Gandra, a fierce mother-in-law-a woman kills a woman, not to mention tarnishing."
Pinkerton nodded and asked, "That is to say, Mrs. Elena and her lover, eventually died in the hands of your elder sister Ms. Gaslin?"
Ge Mo Duo shook his head gently, his face became strange.
"Accurately, we did not kill Kauffman's wife, but slaughtered her lover."
Pinkerton and Gladson glanced at each other, and they couldn't believe it.
"You didn't kill Mrs. Elena, so where did she go later?"
"She was dead. Before we started, she was dragged from the carriage by her lover, strangled alive, and then threw the body into the bottomless mud."
When Elder Chimodo talked about the past, his eyes looked a little gloomy, especially when referring to Mrs. Elena's lover, she showed her inner contempt.
