Sure enough, as soon as Jacob’s voice fell, Grandpa said, “Is Krista too suspicious?”
I looked at Grandpa. “Grandpa, when did I say that Krista didn’t allow anyone to visit?”
“If not, why did you refuse Flora’s request? Flora meant well.”
“I know Flora means well. I have made my words very clear. Romeo needs rest, let alone Flora. You and Grandma should not visit for a few days.”
“What’s the matter, we’re both in your way?”
“You’re a picky old man,” I shook my head and said to Jacob, “Uncle Jacob, are you busy at the moment? If you’re not busy, please do something with me.”
“Yes, young master, I will go with you now.”
I nodded and looked at my grandmother and said, “Grandma, if you have nothing to do at home, you should educate your husband well. Don’t let him go out to see everyone make mistakes and be ashamed.”
“You boy…”
Grandma smiled. “My Cheney didn’t say I was wrong to you.”
I smiled and left with Jacob.
Out of the Plum Court, Jacob asked, “Master, what are we going to do now?”
“I arranged for a few policemen to investigate in the Fischer’s mansion. In the future, these policemen will secretly investigate the case in the Fischer’s mansion. When the time comes, you should cooperate with them a little. Don’t let other employees know about this matter.”
“Yes, young master.”
“Another thing, the Snow Court is not allowed to be approached for half a month.”
“Why?”
“I arranged for people to detect cyanide residues inch by inch. I don’t believe that when the murderer commits a crime, he will not leave any clues and medicines. I must find out the murderer. These days, Uncle Jacob, what you have to do is to put three meals a day at the door of the Snow Court.”
“Well, I will certainly finish this matter.”
“Uncle Jacob, in the Fischer’s mansion, the only thing I can trust is you. I hope you can cooperate with me and let things get to the bottom as soon as possible.”
Jacob nodded to me with a serious expression. “Master, I don’t want to lose peace in the Fischer’s mansion either. I will try my best.”
“Don’t tell my grandparents about this for the time being. If they ask, you can tell them that I asked you to help with business.”
Jacob nodded “Okay.”
“Then go back first.”
Jacob nodded respectfully to me and turned away.
I stood where I was, looking at Jacob’s back.
Seeing him go far, I took out my mobile phone and made a phone call. “Is it installed?”
“Mr. Cheney, it’s ready.”
“Come out quickly, he has gone back.”
“Yes.”
I hung up the phone, and my eyes were deep.
Uncle Jacob, it’s not you, is it?
You… won’t let us down, will you?
A sound came from my mobile phone, clicked on the information, opened the link, and downloaded the app according to the prompt.
Then, I clicked on the app, and the surveillance video of Uncle Jacob’s residence appeared on the screen of my mobile phone.
Jacob’s pov
When I walked to the lake, I looked around and saw no one around. So I made a busy call.
As soon as my phone was connected, I asked, “Flora, are you still at the Plum Court?”
“Hmm.”
“Come out and answer the phone. I have something important to ask you.”
After a minute, Flora’s voice came, “What’s the matter?”
“I ask you, this morning, did you leave any powder because you were nervous?”
“How do I know? Anyway, it is colorless and tasteless. Even if it stays, no one can find it.” She said, not caring.
“Flora, you child. ” How Could she be so careless? “I said I would do it, but you were so brave. Now, the child has not been removed, but it has startled the snake. In order to find the real murderer, Cheney not only sent the police at home, but also found professionals to find out if the murderer left any evidence inch by inch in the Snow Court.”
“Dad, I… I don’t remember slipping it out of my pocket at that time. What… What should we do? If those people find the evidence, won’t I be finished?”
I calmed down for a moment and then said, “Well, Flora, listen to me first. You weren’t the only one in the Snow Court. There are also Nolan and Afra, and there are several servants. Even if they find the medicine, they can’t prove that it is yours. You must remember that it has nothing to do with you, and you didn’t do it. From now on, erase it from your mind. Even if the young master finally finds you, you must insist that it has nothing to do with you, okay? ”
“Dad, I understand, you can rest assured.”
“Now go into the house at once, and accompany the old man and the old lady well. Remember, don’t make any mistakes before the old man. As long as the old man is on your side, Dad can help you.”
“Okay dad.”
Cheney’s pov
On my way out of the Fischer’s mansion, I called someone and said, “You guys check there and let me know if Jacob says anything wrong in the room.”
When I came to the hospital, I put down my mobile phone and went upstairs.
In the ward, Romeo has woken up and is playing Lego with Nolan.
Seeing me, Romeo said happily, “Dad, come quickly. Look, I fought much better with Grandpa.”
I gave Romeo a thumbs up. “My son’s IQ is really high.”
After saying that, I nodded to Uncle and thanked him for his hard work.
He nodded and smiled at me and said, “You came back early.”
“I have dealt with things quickly, and I remember to come back to accompany my wife and son.”
He smiled and looked aside at Krista.
Krista was sitting in a chair by the hospital bed, and my hand was naturally placed on her shoulder. “Are you sleepy?”
She was silent.
However, Uncle said, “This girl, she was tired. If that’s the case, I will prepare dinner, and you two should accompany the child here.”
“Uncle,” Krista pulled him by arm and said, “You already prepared the meal at noon today. I will go down to do it tonight, and you can accompany Romeo here.”
“Uncle, just listen to Krista. I’ll go with her.” I spoke too.
He nodded his head. “All right, then I will stay here with the child.”
Krista asked Romeo, “What do you want to eat?”
Romeo coaxed, “As long as you are gonna be the one to cook it, I like to eat anything.”
“Then you play here, and I will be back soon.”
“Mom, go quickly, I’m a little hungry.”
Krista gave him a spoiled smile, ignored me and turned to walk out.
I followed out.
Until we got into the elevator, neither of us said a word.
When I came to the kitchen arranged in the hospital, I asked, “What can I do for you?”
She didn’t want to talk.
I said, “What are we going to do?”
Krista still ignored me.
I was anxious, pulled her wrist, and said, “Are you going to ignore me all the time?”
There was a bit of coldness in her expression. “What qualifications do I have for me to talk to an extreme person in the Fischer family or a gentleman who is high like you?”
I was speechless and smiled, only to find that it was quite interesting when she played with a small temper.
I pinched her cheek. “Come on, I know, when I talked to you just now, my tone was very bad, but I meant no harm.”
