The ins and outs of Holden's inference are plausible, and all the loopholes can be reasonably explained, but there is an important problem."
But if Alber was coerced, why didn't he speak out?"
Issa raised her doubts, followed by further explanations."
I mean, if the company thinks it's effective to threaten Mr.
Alber, then they can threaten to kill Mrs.
Alber and force Mr.
Alber to comply, without actually carrying out the killing.""
But the problem is that the company must have explicitly or implicitly stated or implied Mr.
Alber before, but Mr.
Alber ignored the threat and refused to sign the test report, which can be understood as the company was forced to go further and carry out the killing, forcing Mr.
Alber to comply, which is reasonable.""
But why did Mr.
Alber choose to remain silent?""
You see, there was an accident in the 12th arrondissement, and the vigilantes had chosen to close the case, but Mr.
Alber made a special trip to the 3rd arrondissement to report the case; The company threatened Mr.
Alber that he had to sign, and he ignored the company's oppression.So, could Mr.
Alber shut up because of his wife's death?
”At this point, Issa didn't continue, but met Holden's gaze.Following Horden to investigate many cases, Issa's vision and way of thinking have made great progress, and in the chaos of information, she cleverly found an important clue.Issa was clearly not surprised to see Holden's calm eyes.Trento and the others followed Issa's gaze and looked at Holden.Hoden's expression didn't change at all, "You ignore the possibility, Mr.
Alber didn't know that all these cases were manipulated by the company, he sent a signal to the company for help, and then he was out of trouble, out of gratitude, he was willing to repay the company, not to be coerced." ”"What if, then, Mr.
Alber, who would rather bend, knew that it was all just a conspiracy trap?
What do you think he will do?
”Of course, this is just Holden's speculation.In the final analysis, it is necessary to talk face-to-face with witnesses, look for clues, find evidence, and find the truth in the fog.Facing everyone's eyes, Hoden didn't continue to argue, but asked with a smile, "Can we meet Mr.
Alber now?"
He should have waited a long time. ”Trento's eyes were a little mixed, because of Holden, and because of Isa, he originally thought that he would rely on himself to use Holden's chicken feathers to make the arrow cover people's eyes, and finally solve the case, but he didn't expect that he didn't seem to help anything, and the current situation has fallen into another crisis, and he is not sure......
Trento didn't answer, but hesitated for a moment, stood up, and turned to leave the room.Slowly closing the door to the conference room, Trento stood in the doorway, his knees slightly weak, not because of Horden and Issa, but because of the Southern Orson Company, behind which stood ......
He originally thought that things might just be a little boring, hoping to find out the truth, but he didn't expect that the spearhead was directly pointed at the Southern Orson Company, so should he continue?
With a long exhale, Trento quickly gathered his thoughts, forbidding himself from any further thoughts, refocusing on the case, and turning towards the next conference room.Either way, they've all come here, and there's no reason to give up halfway; Moreover, pulling Hoden over, plus Ray Peters and Brutus, may be a very wise decision, maybe the "chicken feather arrow" needs to really evolve into the "arrow of order" to exert its power.…… The appearance of Odin Alber in front of him is not what he expected - to be honest, a middle-level manager who has been hanging out in Fenglan Lane all year round, but also a tough bone who would rather bend than bend?
It's really hard to accurately paint a fixed impression in your mind.The short dark gray hair went up like a steel needle, and the traces of time could be seen on the forehead and cheeks, condensed into wrinkles, and the thin and tall figure was very strong compared to a forty-five-year-old middle-aged man, and there was no sign of beer belly or middle-aged fortune at all.Most importantly, he has bright eyes, eyes that sparkle even in the dark.In just one face, Holden made a deep impression on Mr.
Alber, not because of how handsome his facial features were or how outstanding his temperament was, but because of his straight spine in the midst of exhaustion and embarrassment.People with faith are still different after all—whether this belief is right or wrong, or something in between, that's another matter."
I thought that the eyewitnesses had proven my innocence."
Mr.
Alber's voice was slightly hoarse, and he made his position clear word by word, not scolding or complaining, but telling a straightforward truth, "I don't understand why you need me to come and cooperate with the investigation. ”Trento didn't know how to speak: for Monsieur Alber had watched him speak, but someone else had the initiative now."
Mr.
Alber, do you like mints?"
Hodden opened his mouth to ask a question, and Alber followed the voice and looked at it, seeing Howlen's youth at a glance, but he didn't ask questions, still calmly asked, "No, I always thought it should be tooth powder." ”At present, toothpaste has not appeared in Iwabuchi for the time being, and tooth brushing is currently suitable for tooth powder, a kind of cleaning product that is ground into powder after the herb is dried.However, the taste of tooth powder is not very good, so Tuno's doctors have developed a peppermint tooth powder, which is ground into a powder and mixed into the tooth powder, which not only keeps the teeth clean, but also keeps the mouth fresh.Of course, brushing teeth is a thing that is "still popular", let alone tooth powder.As for mint leaves, it's an even rarer item.Since the spread of peppermint tooth powder among the aristocracy, people have gradually discovered that the fresh smell of peppermint is indeed effective in getting rid of bad breath, so mints have been derived to clean their breath at other times other than brushing their teeth."
Mints" have always been considered a medicine.For the upper class aristocrats, especially ladies, if others accidentally find that they are using mints, they will often be defaulted to the meaning of "bad breath", and naturally no one wants to do this, so mints are always something to hide.Holden's abrupt question did not disrupt Alber's rhythm, his answer was smooth and calm, not because of the subtext of "bad breath", but responded in a dignified manner, which made Horden gently bow his head in understanding, Issa and Trento also quickly exchanged glances.This is an important clue.()
