Guidebook for the Dark Duke

Chapter 118 Cause and Effect

"You... What nonsense are you talking about?" Colonel Mel protected the pale-faced Mrs. Mel, and said loudly with a slightly stiff expression.

Evan ignored Colonel Mel, but stared at Mrs. Mel who was hiding behind Colonel Mel.

"Madam, your identity is not a mystery to me now, are you sure you want to deny it to the end?" When Evan said this, the expression on his face was almost a bit mean.

Mrs. Mel didn't dare to look into Evan's eyes at all. She lowered her head and pursed her lips, her hands trembled slightly, and she seemed a little nervous.

"I...I..." she said with trembling lips.

"Stop talking, Katrina!" Colonel Mel interrupted Mrs. Mel's speech, and said sharply: "This matter has nothing to do with you!"

He almost looked at Mrs. Mel with the most severe eyes, with a firm expression.

Mrs. Mel looked at him, but her eyes were full of tears: "Charlie!" She cried, "You can't..."

"Shut up, Katrina!" Colonel Mel hugged the trembling Mrs. Mel: "Don't talk, just be well." He whispered in her ear.

Mrs. Mel cried even harder.

Looking at this scene, Evan clapped his hands. There was deep sarcasm on his face, which was completely different from his usual upright and selfless appearance. Not only Duke Wilson, but even Chandler Sergeant Le also looked at him with some doubts.

"It's really a show with deep affection, Mr. Colonel." Evan's tone was full of sarcasm: "You are so affectionate, does the real Mrs. Mel who was killed by you know?"

Evan's words were so horrifying that Sergeant Chandler was almost immediately attracted by his words, completely forgetting his unusual performance today.

"What did you say?" He stood up suddenly: "The dead person is Mrs. Mel? What's going on?" He finally asked this sentence.

Evan looked back at the bewildered Sheriff Chandler, the expression on his face finally calmed down a bit, he glanced at the bunch of wild mandarin ducks indifferently, and said with a sneer: "Mr. I'm afraid we've fallen into Colonel Mel's despicable plot from the very beginning."

He paused slightly, looked around at the people present, and when he glanced at Duke Wilson's slightly puzzled face, he couldn't help tightening his heart. He never thought that the person who exposed his true colors, It turned out to be him, he clenched his fists and took a deep breath.

"Colonel Meyer's initial focus on himself, his unusual relationship with Sister Elisa, and Mr. Adelson's concealment of his predicament all served to bring the matter to a close. The other person inside is hiding."

When Evan said this, he looked at Mrs. Mel who was hiding behind Colonel Mel. No, it should be Sister Eliza.

"Colonel Mel exposed himself to everyone, but in fact he is a person with an alibi. This point has been well hidden by his design, and he will bring it up when the time is right."

"Speaking of it, this is also a perfect plan. Even the scapegoat has been found. Poor Edson is the best scapegoat. It's a pity that he didn't expect that the duke and I would die so soon. Back from London."

When talking about this, Evan took a deep look at Colonel Mel. In fact, it was not unexpected, but this was his worst plan. Before he went to London, he told himself his secret. I'm afraid this is Colonel Mel's last insurance for this matter.

"The Duke and I are back. He knows very well that Edson cannot be used to deal with me, and my eyes are more and more focused on Mrs. Mel at this time, so he can only take the risk and use his most dangerous and last resort." A plan." Evan looked at Colonel Mel with scorching eyes, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "That is to frame me."

"Putting myself into trouble and predicament, most people can't think rationally at this time, especially with my friend Duke Wilson by my side, with his friendship to me, he will definitely be the first Time to investigate Colonel Mel's own crimes is of course easy, so Colonel Mel was pushed in front of us like this, and the poor lady behind him will be completely forgotten by people, because everyone will think that , the investigation made by the Duke must be the most correct, and no one will question it."

When Evan said this passage, he was very calm. The previous sarcasm and indifference seemed to disappear completely at once, and he changed back to the gentle pastor Mr. before, but Evan knew very well that his every move just now, Duke Wilson saw everything.

"You... this is really..." Sergeant Chandler was stunned by Evan's words. He seemed a little unable to understand the situation before him. After a long time, he finally asked, "Then, why did you say May Is Mrs. Halle a Sister Eliza? That can't be possible, there's hardly any difference between them."

Evan couldn't help laughing: "You said that you have seen Mrs. Mel, indeed, I have seen it too, but the Mrs. Mel I met is a devout Protestant, and there is absolutely no Bitches like this Mrs. Mel!"

Evan's quick glance at that time, until he knelt in front of the Jesus statue, finally understood why he felt strange, because the cross was a Catholic cross, and he didn't know how sensitive a real priest was, so he It would be so slow, and there seems to be a more reasonable explanation why Mrs. Mel didn't come to the church afterwards. A faithful Catholic will never walk into a Protestant church.

When Mrs. Mel said Evan's words, she immediately covered her chest. Such a self-confident action made everyone present have complicated eyes.

Sheriff Chandler frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Is what Mr. Pastor said true? Ma'am, please let me check your cross. If you refuse, I will apply for enforcement."

Mrs. Mel's face was completely pale at this time, she looked at Sergeant Chandler tremblingly, but she held Colonel Mel's arm tightly, unable to speak a word.

But Colonel Meier looked at Mrs. Meier in a daze, and then smiled coldly: "Cross? Hahahahahahahahaha..." He looked up and laughed like crazy: "You still can't let go of it until now. Is your cross?" There was a hint of bitterness in his tone, and he looked at Mrs. Mel sadly.

Mrs. Mel also looked at Colonel Mel, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Charlie, Charlie..." At this moment, it seemed that she could only call out this name.

"Pastor Bruce." Colonel Mel suddenly turned his head and looked at Evan with a cold expression: "My wife should believe in religion halfway, I don't think it's a big deal, you use this kind of thing to prove that my wife is A nun is too ridiculous, you have also met my wife, can there be two people like this in this world?"

Evan knew that Colonel Mel would not give in easily, he smiled softly: "Before this, I didn't believe it either, but after this incident, I dare not assert anything easily."

He waved his hand behind him, and walked out with Butler Chris who came with him. After a while, Butler Chris led a middle-aged nun in. She had kind eyes and looked like the most ordinary nun in the world. She is a middle-aged woman, but her sharp eyes and rigid mouth confirm that she is not as gentle as she appears on the surface.

"This is Dean Tracy of the monastery. I think among us, only she has the most say." Evan said calmly.

The moment Dean Tracy came in, Colonel Mel's face changed. He always thought that this old nun should be in the slums of Calcutta to keep company with the lowly poor, but now she appeared in front of him. in his living room, ready to testify against himself.

Dean Tracy glanced at Mrs. Mel, who was hiding behind Mel with a timid expression, and said with a hint of disgust and dissatisfaction in her eyes. She said coldly, "She is indeed Eliza."

Her words were stiff and cold, as if without any emotion, which made everyone present chill.

But Evan didn't seem to be affected in any way. He smiled slightly and looked at the pale-faced Mrs. Mel and Colonel Mel: "My dear lady, oh no, it should be my dear Eli Sister Sha, do you have anything else to say?"

Eliza froze completely at this moment, she didn't seem to have much courage to face this stern nun.

"You...why did you come back?" She whispered, with a trace of despair in her tone: "Didn't you say that you want to go to Calcutta to fulfill your long-cherished wish? Why do you want to come back?"

Dean Tracy wrinkled her nose in disgust, then returned to her usual indifference, and said in a flat tone, "I'm in Calcutta. I heard that you passed away, so I want to come back to see you."

"Look at me?" Eliza cried and laughed, with a very strange expression: "I always thought you hated me, and you would give up your ideals for me, don't you know? If you don't stay in Calcutta this time If it is enough for one year, then the church will give up its promise to you, and you will still be curled up in this small monastery forever, with no way out."

"I know." Compared to Eliza's rich feelings, Sister Tracy was as cold as a stone, but such a simple reply made Eliza completely stunned, and she looked at the woman in front of her in disbelief. This person seems to be looking at some kind of monster.

"My mission is complete, may I leave?" Sister Tracy looked at Duke Wilson behind Evan and asked calmly.

At this time, Duke Wilson was also at a time when heaven and man were at war. Hearing her question, he just nodded indiscriminately. Sister Tracy nodded slightly, turned and left.

Sister Tracy's departure seemed to inject a boost into this weird living room, and it boiled instantly.

"It's actually true!" Sheriff Chandler looked at Colonel Mel and Elisa excitedly: "You two! You two are...shameful!" Sheriff Chandler held back for a long time, and finally held back A word came out.

Colonel Mel had a cold face without any expression. Eliza was held tightly in his arms, with a sad and sad face.

Evan stood by and watched, but he only felt amused in his heart. He smiled and said, "What can Colonel Mel do? Elisa will never leave the church. If he wants to be with Eliza, It can only be done in such a way, why do you think Colonel Mel married an ordinary lady? There are so many ladies crazy for him, but he ended up marrying someone who is nothing, now you should know , what he married was not her person, but her face."

Evan said this with a smile, but the meaning of this sentence was so cold that it made people shiver.
