Moonlight Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 121 Who Is The Murderer ([-])

Ten minutes later, Ivan stood in Pete's room again, silently observing the scene inside the room, because he discovered one thing, that is...

He seems to have fallen into a misunderstanding.

A misunderstanding that someone must do something to kill someone.

It was precisely because of this idea that he originally planned to start with Butler Layton, seriously question anyone suspicious in the manor, and then find some clues from them, but now he does not intend to do this, and the reason is also very simple, because that Useless.

Only Pete has the key to the door. There is a small window in the bathroom, but there is no way for anyone to pass through. Even if someone passes through, Pete will definitely find out, so if you want him to fall like that, I have to go through some struggles, but there is no trace of any struggle here...

Even if we took a step back, even if someone really approached Pete without Pete's knowledge, then Pete's landing point was wrong, and it was said that that person had to leave the room in full view. You know, at that time Pete's blood was still bright red, which meant that he was discovered immediately, which ruled out this possibility.

There is a substance called sodium citrate that can delay the time of blood clotting, but with the technology of this era, let alone purifying sodium citrate, whether it can be found is a matter of opinion. You know, the hot water in the bathroom here is all under the water. The hot water burned by people in the back is then sent in. The whole process is purely manual, and there is no trace of electrical appliances, so this is also excluded.

So after eliminating all kinds of impossibilities, there is only one possibility left, that is, this incident was really just an accident... But Ivan just felt that there would be something he didn't know about it.

Perhaps this kind of thinking is a bit strange, but Ivan has always believed in his intuition, at least his intuition has been accurate so far.

He stared at the glassware on the wardrobe, for some reason, he always felt that the glassware was about to fall off at any moment.

Thinking of this, Ivan tried to open the door of the closet,

then……

"Snapped!"

This is the sound of glass shattering on the ground. If Ivan didn't dodge fast enough, the glass vessel would definitely hit him. So what if someone just stood in front of the closet to pick up clothes unprepared?

You must know that people have reflex arcs, that is to say, there is a very short interval between accepting reality and reacting.

In the dark, Ivan felt as if he had caught something. He turned around and looked at the environment in the room, the chandelier above his head, the sculpture at the head of the bed, the bathroom wall, water cups, copper mirrors, decorations, wine bottles...

All the sparse and ordinary things seemed to be a little bit wrong at this time. Ivan carefully tried them one by one, and found that except for the glassware that fell and smashed just now, everything else was safe... Could it be an illusion?

"Has something happened, Master Harry?"

At this moment, a slightly trembling voice sounded behind Aiwen. Aiwen turned his head and looked over. A timid-looking woman in a black dress was already standing behind him. It was Butler Layton. As I said before, Pete's No.11 wife: Martha.

"It's nothing, just come here to have a look at the furnishings here, in case you can find any clues, Mrs. Martha, please forgive me." Ivan replied while observing Martha's appearance, and had to say, this Martha Ersa is indeed very beautiful, especially wearing this black dress, I saw that the pitiful expression had just the right amount of allure, and Ivan couldn't help but look at it twice.

"Then did you find any clues?" Martha seemed to want to find the murderer who killed her husband, and Martha was very concerned about the progress of Aiwen's investigation.

"Ah, no, it seems that Pete really died in an accident." Ai Wen said seemingly unintentionally, "You care so much about my investigation, you must be very affectionate with Pete."

"Well, Pete usually treats me very well." Martha nodded lightly, and took a step towards Ivan, holding a white handkerchief tightly in front of her chest with both hands, holding a scene Shown in front of Aiwen, the fragrance of orchids rushed to his face, Aiwen immediately turned his head and gently pushed Martha away.

"too close."

"Sorry, Master Harry, I was too anxious, please forgive me?" Martha frowned slightly, still with the same pitiful look I saw, "If Master Harry has anything to ask, You can come and find me, anytime."

"Can it be done now?"

"Does Master Harry like this? Would it be too exciting? After all...he just died nearby."

"It's okay, go and close the door, my dear."

"Okay, Master Harry." With that said, Martha had already walked towards the door. After looking left and right to see if there was no one, she locked the door completely, and then walked towards Ivan while taking off the door. Taking off his coat and throwing it on the sofa, Ivan walked to the wine cabinet beside him, poured a glass of red wine for himself and Martha, saw Martha walking over, and handed one of the glasses to her.

"Master Harry, what do you want to ask me?" Martha touched Ivan's glass lightly with her own glass, drank the red wine in the glass, and then licked her lips, "Ask me casually Come on, Master Harry, you can ask anything you want~"

"That's what you said."

"Of course, Master Harry doesn't believe it?"

"Well, let me ask, how long have you wanted to kill Pete?"

Hearing Ivan's words, Martha's face froze immediately, and her expression immediately turned cold, "Master Harry, I don't understand what you mean, don't you think these words are very important for a woman like me whose husband just died?" Is it too much for me?"

Aiwen didn't answer Martha's words directly, but said to himself, "Butler Layton told me that Pete has a hobby of abusing and abusing others, and his first ten wives died because of this." , since you just said that you and Pete have a very good relationship, so... do you have similar strange habits?"

Martha's face became colder and colder, "Master Harry, are you so interested in other people's private lives?"

"It's not a question of interest, I just want to see the real you," Ivan took the wine glass from Martha's hand, and then exchanged the wine glass in his hand to her, "or... I just want to hear A story, a very interesting story about you."
