One Punch Man King Engine

Chapter 87 – Dogs Eat Dogs

Child Emperor walked around the crowd and quickly returned to King.
He pinched his chin, muttering thoughtfully, “Mr.
Robert’s body has no obvious wounds.
There is only a small black wound on his palm, and his skin is purple.
The cause of his death is suspected to be poisoning.
The specific situation depends on the autopsy of the police.”

King glanced at Child Emperor, who was frowning.
Then he looked at Robert, who was lying covered by white cloth in the living room, and the frightened guests.
He secretly shook his head.
He did not understand deduction and solving cases at all.
He probably could not help.

Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and rested quietly, ignoring these worries.

Child Emperor stole a glance at King, who was staying out of it.
He pursed his lips and said to himself, “Before Mr.
Robert died, five people left the living room.
His wife Ayla, driver Luya, partner Cindy, subordinate Grey, and me.
These five were the most probable suspect for the poisoning of all the people present.
Of course, other suspects might still be discovered before the case is solved.”

“You are also suspected?!” King opened his eyes in surprise and looked at Child Emperor’s serious face.

“The great detective Sayed Michellf once said that before the truth was revealed, everyone must be suspected equally.”

Child Emperor nodded matter-of-factly.

King raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, “Which famous detective is Sayed Michellf? Why haven’t I heard of it?”

“Ayla is a gentle and virtuous wife who doesn’t like to show her face in public.
Um, she is Robert’s second wife after his previous wife passed away.
For many years, she has been silently supporting Robert.
Luya has been working as a driver for more than eight years.
Robert trusts him a lot.
Cindy is a major shareholder of Mr.
Robert’s company.
The two of them started a business together.
They worked hand in hand for more than thirty years to build today’s toy giants.
Their relationship is extraordinary.
Grey was Mr.
Robert’s secretary, a trusted aide that managed trade secrets.
Finally, I am Mr.
Robert’s special consultant, mainly helping Mr.
Robert’s company to solve technological problems.”

King glanced at Child Emperor, who was talking non-stop, and continued to close his eyes to rest.
He did not have so much leisure to solve the case!

“Lazy uncle.”

Child Emperor looked at King, who did not care about the murder case at all, and could not help but complain.
Robert was a director of the Association.
As an S-class Hero, don’t you have any concern for the perils of the Association?

“Child Emperor, have you found any valuable clues?” Maigret walked over with a serious expression.

“Not yet.
Perhaps you can start with Mr.
Robert’s death.” Child Emperor shook his head.

“Mr.
Robert’s death? I understand,” Maigret nodded, “I’ll tell them to hurry up with the autopsy and figure out the cause of Mr.
Robert’s death as soon as possible.”

“Miss Ayla, may I ask where you were during the period of Mr.
Robert’s death?”

After eliminating suspicion from the guests in the living room without any motive or opportunity to commit the crime, the officer in charge of the interrogation turned his gaze to Robert’s wife, Ayla.

Ayla was a noble lady.
She dressed up beautifully and was still graceful in her forties.
Her every move was full of elegance, and her every frown and smile was charming.
However, because of Robert’s death, there was a hint of worry hidden in her delicate eyebrows that induced a pitiful feeling.

She thought for a moment and then said softly, “At that time, I was in my bedroom.”

The police officer asked again, “I wonder if Miss Ayla has seen a witness?”

“I asked Luya to come to my bedroom and buy some specific cosmetics.”

“Bah, buy cosmetics? You bitch, is that fucker Luya paying you in cosmetics?”

An angry voice interrupted.

Everyone turned their eyes to the speaker.
It was Robert’s only son, Damon.
Damon had been kneeling in front of Robert’s corpse with a face full of grief, ignoring everyone, and now he was cursing his stepmother.

Damon’s face was filled with anger.
He pointed at Ayla and barked, “You two cheaters, don’t think you can hide your dirty deeds from the world.
In fact, my father had long discovered your adultery and was even preparing a divorce, you slut.
You must have fretted that you won’t get my family’s inheritance.
That’s why you took advantage of the time before my father divorced you to kill him and take the opportunity to get my family’s property.”

“What!?”

This news was explosive.
The world’s toy tycoon, Robert, was cheated on by his wife before he died.
He also discovered the adultery between his wife and the driver, but he ascended the heavens while he was preparing to deal with them.

This might be Ayla and Luya’s motive!

The police and guests looked suspiciously at Ayla and the flustered Luya, wondering if they were really the schemers who murdered Robert.

The police officer said seriously, “Miss Ayla, did anyone other than Mr.
Luya see you in the bedroom at the time of the death?”

“There is no one else but Luya and I.
Mr.
Policeman, I really didn’t kill my Rob.
Moreover, Luya and I have never had any improper relationship.” Ayla replied angrily.

Luya quickly echoed, “Yes, it’s just that I often help Miss Ayla buy cosmetics.
Our relationship is innocent, and there is absolutely no such dirty thing as Young Master Damon said.”

“Humph.”

Damon snorted coldly and did not continue to speak.

Luya suddenly pointed at Grey and said, “I think the person who killed the boss is Grey.
The boss trusted him very much when he was alive, but this traitor actually sold the company trade secrets and earned black money.
When the boss found out, he was furious and planned to call the police to arrest him.
He must have been afraid of going to jail, so he killed the boss.”

“Wow!”

Everyone looked at Luya and Grey.
They were stunned.
The inside news was getting more and more explosive! If there were reporters present, they would probably laugh to death.
These two pieces of news were definitely worth hundreds of thousands.

“You’re slandering me!”

Grey furiously pointed at Luya and shouted, “You fucker, in order to clear your suspicion, you actually speak nonsense.
Everyone in the company knows that the boss has done me a great favor.
I have always been loyal to the boss.
How could I kill the boss?”

Luya sneered, “Whether you did it or not, you know it in your heart.
The boss also knows it in your heart.”

This time, everyone stared at Grey with questioning eyes.
Regardless of whether he killed Robert or not, if the matter of him selling the company’s business secrets was true, he would definitely have to go to prison.
