Good question, Zuo Yan continued,I can tell you clearly that I have evidence, and its solid evidence.

As he spoke, he clicked on his phone a few more times and opened an audio file.

A few seconds later, a mans voice came out of the phones player.

Im Peter Miller. Its 6 p.m. On October 12th. Ill be meeting Sam Herbert in an hour

Zuo Yan had only played the first few sentences before he immediately pressed the stop b.u.t.ton.

As for Sam Just by hearing the beginning, he couldnt help but change his expression.

The reason why you have the confidence to say those words is undoubtedly because you believe that you didnt leave behind any evidence of your interaction with Miller. Zuo Yan was not surprised by the change in Sams expression. He simply continued,indeed Miller is very cautious. In order not to leave a call record, when he first came to find you, he used the method of suddenly talking to you in a public place;After that, for every meeting you made, you would use the method of leaving a secret message on a public online message board to set the time and place.

The place where you guys will meet is most likely in the crowded business centers. The surveillance equipment in those places is installed and managed by merchants. Its different from the police surveillance cameras installed on the streets Merchants usually dont keep the surveillance videos for too long. Therefore, even if the scene of your meeting was captured by a camera, you dont have to worry about the video being preserved for too long.

I have to say that this face-to-face method is very good, and it greatly increases the efficiency and security of your work Including the key link of payment. You also pay cash in person and do not involve bank transfers.

Everything youve done Theres almost no trace of it.

However Its also because of this that the cautious Miller will definitely hold back. After all He still needs to take a sum of remaining payment from you after the matter is done. If you go back on your word or try to kill him to silence him, hell have to be prepared. Otherwise Hell be taking the blame for you for nothing.

So, this evening, before Miller met you He recorded this recording in advance. He explained the deal between you and him from beginning to end. If something unexpected happens, such as You want to renege on the payment, he can threaten you with this recording that was recorded before the time of the crime

Hold on. At that moment, Feng bujue interrupted,Miller is also involved in the case. If we hand the recording to the police Doesnt that mean he will die with Sam?

Its not mutual destruction. Zuo Yan looked at brother Jue and replied,if Miller took the recording to the police and turned himself in, considering the content of the recording and the circ.u.mstances of turning himself in, he might end up with a light sentence as an accomplice. As for Sam Because of the court ruling that he was a swindler in that will case, plus a clear motive and a planned crime, he, the main culprit, might not be able to get out of prison for the rest of his life.

Zuo Yan wasnt repeating Victors mind monologue, he was saying it himself. This was because before entering the room, Victor had already gone through the entire case in Zuo Yans mind. Therefore, Zuo Yan was able to deal with any sudden problems on his own. This was a tacit understanding between Victor and him.

Similarly After a slight pause, Zuo Yan continued,if Miller was arrested in the process of committing the crime, this recording can also be used as evidence to reduce his charges. Its better to be safe than sorry.

HmmI see. When Feng bujue heard that, he put on a thoughtful look and nodded.

He was acting

In reality, brother Jue did not only understand this after hearing Zuo Yans words. He had thought of this long ago. But In order for the case to last until Chapter 33, Feng felt that it was a good time to ask such questions.

From Zuo Yans and Victors perspective, Feng bujues question was reasonable, and it would help them explain the case and the logic of each party, so they answered him patiently.

Eh? After a moment of silence, Feng bujue seemed to have thought of something. He raised his voice and asked,then how did you get this recording? Could it be that Miller has the recording on him?

Yes, brother Jue. Zuo Yan smiled as he waved the phone in his hand.This isnt my phone.

Feng bujue had already noticed that the phone Zuo Yan was holding was different from the one he had given to dawist earlier. He was just asking the obvious.

This phone is Miller s. Zuo Yan continued,of course, he didnt bring it with him when he committed the crime, or else Mr. Herbert would have found the recording before all of us. As he spoke, he glanced at John, hinting that the latter had already searched the body before the police arrived.About an hour ago, the police confirmed Millers ident.i.ty and found this mobile phone through a search of his residence on the island. Ten minutes ago, I used the corpses thumbprint to unlock the phone screen and found the recording just now.

Oh I see Feng bujue read it out loud.This is indeed a safe method. If Miller is caught by someone outside of the police before and after the crime, and the recording is not with him, he is not afraid that the evidence will be destroyed. And once hes officially arrested by the police, he can ask the police to go to his house to find his phone.

Its a pity Miller never thought that he would die Two seconds later, Zuo Yan took over. His tone had a slight change. It seemed like Victor had come online again.Fortunately, he left enough information for me to deduce the truth of the case.

As he spoke, he looked at Sam again.

At this moment, Sams face was pale with a tinge of green, and the cold sweat on his back had soaked his s.h.i.+rt.

Sam did not say anything in the face of Zuo Yans intense gaze. He was well aware that At this moment, the more he said, the more mistakes he would make. Although he was already in despair when he heard the recording, at the edge of the cliff called collapse, he still grabbed a branch called luck to support himself and not fall.

Hmph Youre pretty quiet now, arent you? Zuo Yan replied coldly,after I proved that you did not not understand what Im saying and you and Miller do know each other If you continue to act like this, wont you look a little embarra.s.sed?

Vidok was aggressive, while Sam continued to keep quiet.

Alright No matter what, we can finally talk about your motive Zuo Yan paused for a moment before continuing,as Ive said before, your real motive Is not John s.n.a.t.c.hed away the inheritance that should have belonged to you, but John, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d who has no blood relations with you, killed your father and s.n.a.t.c.hed away the inheritance that should have belonged to you.
