Chapter 972 In-depth investigation
"Mr. Justice, please listen to me. I've come to you and Lisa because I can't think of anyone else who would listen to me and believe that my husband is innocent."

Daphne said with tears in her eyes.

Musk shrugged, resisting the urge to tell the truth: deep down, he didn’t believe Maxim Wenders was innocent either.

"My husband did lie to the police. Rebecca didn't die in a shipwreck. She was a corpse before she was dragged aboard the schooner by Maxim."

"That night, Maxim alone drove the boat to transport Rebecca's body to the sea, then opened the sea valve, sank the sailboat to the bottom of the sea, and rowed the lifeboat back to the shore, pretending nothing happened."

"When someone asked Rebecca's whereabouts, he said that he was sailing out to sea and disappeared in the storm. It was not until Rebecca's body was washed ashore with the sunken boat by the tide and was discovered by the police that he had to admit that he had made up the story. lie."

Hearing what Daphne said, Lisa couldn't laugh or cry.

"My dear friend, aren't the details you said exactly the same as the testimony released by Mrs. Danvers in court? This can only prove that your husband did murder her ex-wife."

"No no! Lisa, please listen to me, it's not as simple as you think!" Daphne snapped back excitedly, "The key lies in the fact that Maxim and Rebecca were in the dock where the sailboat was parked on the night of the crime. There was a violent dispute."

"That's right, and Mrs. Danvers was outside the door at the time, heard the sound of your husband shooting and killing Rebecca, and witnessed the whole process of him transferring the body." Musk said impatiently.

"But have you ever wondered why Mrs. Danvers was outside the door?" Daphne asked suddenly.

Musk froze for a moment, faintly feeling that this was no coincidence.

"It's hard to say, but Rebecca was very dissolute when she was alive. She often met her lover in the dock by the sea in the name of boating at night, and Mrs. Danvers, who was most trusted by her, acted as a sentinel for her mistress. Watchdog."

Daphne took a deep breath and continued:
"Maxim knew about Rebecca's infidelity for a long time. He just wanted to protect the family's honor, so he couldn't divorce her. He endured it until that night, perhaps because he drank a few more drinks. He couldn't help it. Furious, he broke into the dock alone with a shotgun and scolded Rebecca for her shamelessness."

"It's also a coincidence that Rebecca's lover was busy that night and couldn't come to the appointment. Mrs. Danvers was also dozing off, and she didn't stop Maxim from breaking into the dock in time, until she was awakened by the quarrel between the couple."

"In the dock, facing her husband's reprimand, Rebecca not only did not repent, she also shamelessly told Maxim that she was pregnant with her lover's child, and that this bastard would be killed in the name of Maxim's son. Born to inherit the property of the Wenders family, including this Mandali Manor."

"Maxim was deeply enraged, and once wanted to shoot this shameless woman, but in the end he restrained the impulse, threw the gun on the ground, and told Rebecca face to face that he would do whatever it took to get along with this bitch." Divorce her son, and make her scandalous things known to the public!"

"After saying these words, Maxim turned and left."

"Rebecca was hurt by Maxim's disdainful attitude, and perhaps she was also worried that her licentious behavior would be exposed, so she became furious, picked up the shotgun, threatened Maxim to return to her immediately, and took back what she just said."

"Poor Maxim, who has been completely heartbroken by this woman, ignored her threat at all and continued walking towards the door."

"At this moment, Rebecca fired a shot into the sky, trying to frighten Maxim, but accidentally fell down and fell on the back of his head on a wooden wedge, and died accidentally."

"After Rebecca's death, Maxim also panicked and tried to pretend that Rebecca died in a shipwreck."

"The reason why he made such an irrational choice was firstly because he didn't want to make his family scandal public, and secondly because he really couldn't clear up his suspicion of murder under the circumstances at that time."

"Maxim told me all these things himself. He dares to swear in the name of the Lord that this is the whole truth about Rebecca's death!"

Daphne wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked up at Musk and Lisa, her eyes were extremely hot.

"I believe everything Maxim says, but it's not enough, Lisa, Mr. Justice, for God's sake, I beg you to try to clear poor Maxim's name and help me Let the truth of the case be made public!"

The friend begged with tears, but Lisa couldn't bear it, and turned to look at Musk: "Honey, Daphne is so pitiful, let's help her?"

Musk nodded reluctantly, and said to Daphne seriously: "Mrs. Wenders, Lisa and I will try our best to help you, but I have to say some bad things first, and we will not take sides during the investigation. , in case the truth finally found out violates your expectations, I hope you can face it calmly."

"Don't worry, Mr. Justice, I've prepared for the worst." Daphne replied with a sob.

"Okay, Mrs. Wenders, you go home and wait for the news. Lisa and I will be busy next time." Musk got up to see off the guests.

Daphne found the right person.

The presiding judge in the Wenders murder case was Lisa’s father, George Colter. Through this relationship, Musk was allowed to enter the detention center that evening in the name of the defense lawyer hired by Mrs. Wenders for her husband.

Lisa accompanied him to visit Mr. Wenders in the detention center. In name, she was the assistant of the young lawyer Musk Justice, a humble bag-carrying girl. In fact, the role she played in this meeting tonight even Even more critical than Musk himself.

"Mr. Wenders, I am entrusted by your wife to defend your case. Before that, I hope to have a frank conversation with you."

In the reception room of the detention center, Musk looked at the haggard Maxim Wenders across the table.

"Excuse me for the routine nonsense, Mr. Justice, just ask me what you want to know, and I will answer it truthfully."

Mr. Wenders' attitude was very unfriendly.

What Musk saw in his eyes was not a guilty conscience, but more like a kind of self-defeating.

"First of all, let's review the details of the night when the crime happened..."

Musk led the topic calmly and asked Mr. Wenders to recount the causes and consequences of Rebecca's death.

Mr. Wenders was in a depressed mood, but he still answered every question patiently, and the details of the description were completely consistent with what Daphne said.
