"I don't understand what you're talking about. The fastest update." Faced with Zuo Yan's question, Sam acted very calmly.
After all... this is a "planned crime", and it is impossible for Sam to put it into action without imagining any countermeasures in his mind.
His current calmness is the result of his preparation in advance.
"Oh..." Zuo Yan responded, "Then let me tell you, and you listen." He paused and continued, "As you said, if you take away what should be yours for John You would never have waited so long if you paid someone to kill someone over an inheritance. It is true that it was inappropriate to take action when the verdict was just handed down, but in the year or two after that... when you were the most angry, In the most depressing period, you still resisted and did not take action. It can be seen that... the matter of 'being taken away from your inheritance' was not enough to make you take risks; even if you knew that John was behind this matter, you did not take the leap. The boundaries of the law...because, at the end of the day...you are different from your brother, you are a good person."
"Ha!" John heard this and laughed dryly to show his disdain for these remarks.
Zuo Yan ignored him and continued to say to Sam: "This is actually quite ironic. They are two brothers who grew up in the same environment and were well-educated...the one who looks young and promising to outsiders , throwing the law behind in order to maintain his own image; but to outsiders, the one who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun still sticks to a bottom line. "
Having said this, he looked at Sam with a slightly regretful look, and then said: "Although John harmed you and you hate him, out of respect for the law, and perhaps also thinking about blood ties... you After all, he gave up the idea of extrajudicial revenge.
"In the end, you decided to give up your past life, live on your own feet like an ordinary person, and determined never to be associated with the name John Herbert...
"However, just when you thought you had closed the chapter on your family in your life, fate played a very interesting joke on you..."
While talking, Zuo Yan took out his phone, operated it a few times, and then turned the screen towards Sam.
At this moment, a photo was displayed on the screen of his mobile phone; it was a photo of a man, an ordinary-looking white man about forty years old.
Everyone present could recognize that the man in the photo was the deceased in this case.
"Pat Miller is thirty-nine years old and unemployed." Two seconds later, Zuo Yan continued, "Although he is unemployed now...but many years ago, he was also a senior white-collar worker, and the company he worked for at that time It's..." He looked at John, "...John Herbert Investment Co., Ltd."
The company reported by Zuo Yan is the one that John opened when he was young; this company still exists today, but it has become one of the many small shell companies under the Herbert Group.
Generally speaking, large companies will play this trick. They will register n different small companies in n countries... These shell companies have no office location, no real affairs, and no employees to work, but every month they will Arrange accountants to report accounts to maintain their existence. When necessary, large companies can use these small companies under their subsidiaries to digest various transactions and projects in the "gray area". Firstly, they can "avoid tax (the main purpose)", and secondly... in case of certain events in the future. If you want to litigate a certain project for various reasons, these "shells" can also be used as a shield for the parent company.
"John Herbert Investment Co., Ltd." is such an existence.
Once upon a time, it also carried John's dream, but now, it is an existence that has lost its use value and is like an outdated trademark.
"Mr. Zuo Yan, let me interrupt..." After thinking for two seconds, John suddenly spoke and said to Zuo Yan, "There is something I think it would be better to state now... Yes, I know this deceased, But I didn't recognize him when the case happened... In fact, I didn't even see his face at that time, because he appeared from behind me and suddenly attacked me; besides, I hadn't seen him for a long time. I had seen him... Even after he died, I didn't immediately recognize who he was. I just thought he looked familiar. It wasn't until shortly before Sheriff Dauster arrived that I remembered that this man had been there many years ago. They are my employees.”
"To say 'employees'... is too foreign." Zuo Yan continued, "He has been your personal assistant for more than two years."
Hearing this, John's expression changed obviously, and he thought to himself: "This kid... has actually gotten to this point..."
"At this moment, are you thinking...'This kid has actually found out this far'?" The next second, Zuo Yan actually opened his mouth and directly expressed John's thoughts, "Huh..." Before the other party could wait, Zuo Yan spoke. In response, Zuo Yan smiled and said, "From your micro-expressions and tiny body movements, I can basically guess what you are thinking... To be honest, if you had met me back then, you would probably have entered the world." Went to the prison to pick up soap.”
These words are not Zuo Yan's meaning, but Vidocq's original words; of course... Zuo Yan doesn't mind repeating these mocking contents in an appropriate tone, because based on what he knows so far, he He also despises and loathes John from the bottom of his heart.
"Yes, he was my assistant, so what?" John was a little angry, but he didn't get angry. He didn't respond to the other party's ridicule, but tried to bring the topic back to the case, "This doesn't conflict with what I said just now... I said that he attacked me from behind, and I haven't seen him for many years; after such a long time, let alone an assistant, even if he is a relative... it's normal not to recognize him, right?"
"I didn't think it was important at first, I just mentioned that he was an employee of that company... It was you who interrupted me and made the so-called "statement", have you forgotten it?" Zuo Yan asked back.
This was a sharp remark, and John was speechless.
"If you don't mind, I'll continue to say what I really want to say..." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zuo Yan turned his head and looked at Sam, and then said, "According to my guess, it was around the fall of last year that Miller found you and... told you something; and those things were the fuse of today's murder..."
"Before you say something more outrageous..." Sam responded coldly before the other party finished speaking, "What evidence do you have to prove... I know this person named Miller, and how can I prove that he has had contact with me?" (To be continued...)
