Lamont did not notice how unusual Archer was acting. He then went to the bedside table and picked up the bottle to take a look. “It’s a headache medicine. The person who lives here must always have a headache.”
He did not hear any response from Archer, so he turned to look at the latter, who was staring at the flowers in a daze. He looked at him strangely and said, “Sir, are you listening to me?”
Archer ignored him and walked to the flowers. He then reached out to pick them up and seemed to be curious.
After checking them for a while, he suddenly said, “Lamont, do you smell a weird fragrance in this room?”
Lamont sniffed subconsciously and nodded. “Apart from the smell of the medicine, there’s a sweet fragrance.”
“Do you think that this is a familiar scent?”
“You mean this?” Lamont was also a little familiar with it. He thought for a moment and said, “It feels familiar because I remembered that I smelt it in the office of President Garcia once.”
“How about the flowers then? Do you think this flower arrangement looks familiar?”
Lamont was surprised to see the flowers that Archer held. “Huh? Why are they so similar to the flowers in her office?”
“Yes? Why is that so?” Archer asked.
“Could it be that Lucian lives here? Did she like the things that President Garcia used as she had followed her for so many years?”
“No way! It can’t be Lucian!” Archer went to a bed and picked up a strand of long hair on the pillow. “She has short hair, but the person living here has long hair!”
He then put it into his wallet. “Other than the familiar flower arrangement and scent, I know the way Natalie places the objects is different from others as I have been with her for five years. You can take a look at the decorations in this room.”
They were classified into different categories, and they were arranged neatly. Lamont knew that she was a rigorous person. However, he did not know much about her life, but Archer was different.
Both he and Natalie had loved each other for so many years. That was why he knew her habits very well. He then opened the wardrobe. The fragrance in the wardrobe became stronger, and some clothes were arranged neatly.
This was not unusual because she had always been particular about how she arranged things due to her obsessive-compulsive disease. While she had been together with Archer, she had always put blouses on the left and trousers on the right of the wardrobe. Now, the clothes in the wardrobe were also arranged in the same way.
He became more suspicious after picking up the fragrance sachet in the wardrobe. “This is also her favourite sachet. This person who lives here has the same habits as her. What a coincidence!”
“Sir, do you mean that the person has to do a lot with President Garcia?”
“I don’t know! I’m just telling you what I’ve seen. How can people have the same habits?”
“Perhaps this was a coincidence? Since there are so many people out there.” Lamont did not dare to confirm this.
“However, Gonzalec, the boss here, is also the distant cousin of Lucian. Rumour has it that the person staying here is Gonzalec’s cousin. Well, if we narrow down our list based on this information, it sounds a little inaccurate. It can’t be a coincidence that Gonzalec’s cousin and President Garcia have the same habits, right?”
“I also thought like that, so I want to see who his seriously ill relative is.”
“That’s simple. We’ll know it if we arrange for people to take pictures of her in the hospital,” Lamont replied.
“Not only that, but we should also tell them to bring a strand of her hair back.”
“Huh? Are you going to do a DNA test as you suspect that the patient is not the person living in this room?” Lamont was surprised. Archer had kept the hair from the bed, and he wanted his men to bring back a strand of the patient’s hair from the hospital. Needless to say, he wanted to do a DNA test to verify her identity.
“Yes, how can his relative be sick at the same time? This is such an unusual coincidence! Maybe I’m overthinking, but I feel that the patient is the one who lives here. We have to figure it out since we already suspect something is going on.”
Lamont asked Archer, “Who do you think is the one that put the poisonous gas in this room?”
“Although that b*tch gave birth to Raymond, he is not a bully like her. Also, he never takes sides, so he should not have any other rivals. Now, the most possible person must be the one who hates Savannah. What’s more, I can’t think of another person except for Lucian, who had a chance to kill her.” Archer answered without hesitation.
“If so, Lucian is too vicious, isn’t she? To get revenge on her, she even attacked Raymond!” Lamont was furious. “He is innocent, and I think that he didn’t want to be in such an awkward situation. I always thought that she was sensible and didn’t expect that she was so sly.”
Archer remained silent. Although Lamont was talking about Lucian, he was indirectly talking about Archer as well.
Why did all of these have to do with Raymond? In fact, it was all because of Savannah’s viciousness. She didn’t like Raymond for more than 20 years and almost caused his death. Wasn’t she out of line?
As they were talking, there was a noise coming from the guest room of the resort.
“Uh! Why is it so noisy?” Archer was shocked.
“Something may have happened! Let’s go and see!”
They immediately returned in a hurry. After they reached there in a short while, they saw two policemen’s bodies covered in blood being carried into an ambulance.
Then, the ambulance drove out of the resort quickly. Both of them looked at each other after they saw the situation. They immediately stopped a policeman and asked, “What happened?”
“The murderer is hiding in the room. Two of our colleagues were stabbed by him when they went to check inside!” He answered.
“Where is he hiding?” Lamont also asked.
He was shocked once the police told him that the murderer was hiding in Valeria’s room. Had the murderer been hiding in the room while waiting for a chance all this time?
Archer was also uneasy. “Are there other casualties?”
The police officer shook his head. “No!”
“Where is he now? Has he been caught?” Lamont also asked.
“He already jumped out of the window and ran away! We are searching for him! By the way, he is very fierce, so he may kill anyone that he sees. It’s best if you can hide in a safe place for a while and come out after we catch him.” The police suggested.
“Well, we’ll hide first, and you should be careful.”
Archer looked a little serious after he saw them leave in a hurry. “Find Valeria immediately! This murderer is hiding in her room, and his target must be Valeria! We must ensure her safety now.”
