"Come to inquire"

At 9:13 in the morning on September 14th.

Bang, bang.

Hewen's mansion once again welcomed a guest. Although the two knocking sounds were not heavy, they seemed very coherent. It seemed that the visitor was in a hurry now.

Hewen walked to the door, opened it gently, and saw an anxious look on the girl's face.

Kelly walked into the room without saying a word, still holding a newspaper tightly in her hand.

She walked into the door, closed it directly, and looked around the room:

"Where's Hara?"

Hewen said:

"She went for a walk."

Kelly asked:

"She won't be back soon, right?"

Hewen nodded:

"No, what happened?"

Kelly and Hewen walked to the living room and sat down together. She asked first:

"Can you give me a glass of water? Or any drink."

Hewen walked to the wine rack:

"Can I drink wine?"

"Alcohol affects my brain. Can I have a glass of milk?"

Hevin poured Kelly a glass of milk that Hala often drank and placed it on the table in front of her.

Kelly drank the milk in one go and calmed down a little.

She spread the newspaper on the table, and a whole page was about one thing.

"A student at Allen University was brutally tortured and killed"

Kelly said a name:

"Abbas."

Hewen stepped forward and read the contents of the newspaper carefully. It was vague about the situation of the deceased. It only mentioned that his death was very tragic and extremely inhumane, as well as the place of death, the estimated time of death, the time of witnessing, etc.

, and did not reveal the name of the deceased or the specific details of his death.

Hewen asked:

"Are you sure it's Abbas?"

Kelly said it with certainty:

"I am very sure. I specifically contacted the police and got the name of the deceased. They have confirmed the identity and it is Abbas."

Hevin put down the newspaper and looked into Kelly's eyes:

"What do you think?"

Kelly said:

"It's a very strange thing, and it's very detrimental to us."

Kelly also looked back and looked at Hewen:

"Professor Hewen, you don't know anything."

At this moment, her eyes penetrated reality. One of the few, she took the initiative to enter the world behind the scenes, where she looked at Hewen's figure.

"No, I don't know anything."

Kelly nodded.

The scene behind the scenes met her expectations.

She pulled herself back to the real world:

"Professor Hewen, this matter is very strange. If..."

Bang! Bang!

The knock on the door sounded for the second time today. This time the visitor seemed to use a lot more force, but the interval was longer and he seemed more patient.

Hevin signaled Kelly to wait with his eyes and walked towards the door.

The man outside the door has a resolute face, is about 1.88 to 1.89 meters tall, and has a fairly strong build. He should have been doing sports or something like that all year round. The only drawback is that he seems to be in poor spirits.

The man looked polite but said firmly:

"Professor Hevin? I'm Detective Elwood from the Aaron Police Department. Can you come in and sit down?"

After hearing Elwood's self-introduction, Kelly, who was in the living room, seemed to become a little nervous.

Hewen nodded easily and said:

"sure."

Elwood followed Hevin to the living room. The moment the detective saw Kelly, a trace of doubt and curiosity flashed in his eyes.

However, he had no intention of exploring the identity of this woman and said to Hewen:

"I would like to have a more private conversation with you, one-on-one."

Hewen asked:

"For Abbas?"

A flash of light flashed in Elwood's eyes. This was exactly the name of the victim. It seemed that it was a very wise choice to visit Professor Hewen, who was not yet aware of whether he was an enemy or a friend.

Elwood replied:

"Yes, Mr. Hewen knows about this?"

Hewen said:

"That's right."

He looked at Kelly again:

"Kelly, do you want to leave first?"

Kelly replied:

"No, Professor, I think I can stay."

After taking the hint and getting Kelly's answer, Hevin said directly to Elwood:

"She also has something to do with this matter."

Elwood nodded and sat down directly. He glanced at Kelly's glass and Hevin's wine rack:

"Can you get me a drink too?"

Hewen asked:

"liquor?"

Elwood nodded and said:

"It's best if it's strong enough."

Hevin took a glass of Aired whiskey and gave both of them a little.

Elwood took half a sip:

"Sorry, but I really need these things to clear my mind and cheer me up, especially after watching something like that yesterday."

Hewen asked:

"What kind of thing?"

Elwood said:

"You don't know the crime scene? Then why do you know the victim's name."

Hevin explained:

"Because we had some unpleasant things happen to the victim, classmate Abbas, a few days ago."

Elwood's keen intuition told him that this would be a very useful clue. Of course, even if his intuition was not keen, he could still see the secrets hidden in it.

But he could see more. From the expressions of Hevin and the girl, every subtle twitch of the muscles, and every change of the tone, he could understand a little more about the two of them.

An ordinary detective might have increased his suspicion of Hevin, but Elwood, on the contrary, eased his suspicion of Hevin.

Indeed, there are many types of criminals who will take the initiative to confess their bad relationships with their victims to the police, such as narcissistic murderers, and psychological masters who want to use this to mislead the police and lead to reverse thinking.

But Hevin was not among them. Elwood could tell by looking at Hevin's expression.
