Regarding the Winchester House explosion case, Kieran had gone through multiple deductions based on the clues he had. In the end, the conclusion he came up with was: Barney the Jackal helped Bridger to sell the stolen goods and then bought the whole Winchester House. In order to cover his tracks, he killed the family of three of Winchester House's original owner.
Then, all sorts of treasures that Buchel stole from Edland Museum attracted a buyer like Cymede Augen.
However, Kieran didn't know if it was Barney the Jackal who raised the price or Cymede Augen was planning to do the dirty trick or someone else appeared out of nowhere.
In the end, an accident happened and the whole Winchester House was blown up into the sky.
The general deduction was as such.
However, Anne Aldrich Augen's words forced Kieran to overturn his deduction.
"The one who bought Winchester House wasn't Barney the Jackal?"
Kieran asked in a testing manner.
Facing a Black Widow like Anne Aldrich Augen, Kieran's character wouldn't allow him to believe whatever she said.
No one could guarantee whether or not she was lying or not.
After all, from Kieran's point of view, it was almost second nature for her to lie.
"Barney the Jackal?
That little gangster who sold the stolen goods? You are talking about the robbery case in Edland Museum right? "
"To be honest, those treasures are only considered as treasures in your eyes. If you had seen Symede Augen's treasure room, you would feel that those things are too common. The window that you broke last night and the carpet that was damaged are much more valuable than most of the items in that batch."
Anne Aldrich Augen laughed.
It wasn't flaunting but it was an attitude of stating facts.
Of course, her tone also had a faint sense of ridicule.
Kieran wasn't moved by the ridicule.
He was a poor man himself, he didn't understand the thoughts of the rich and he didn't understand why a person like Cymede Augen would treat antiques as daily necessities.
However, there was one thing that Kieran was sure of.
Anne Aldrich Augen didn't lie.
Because the Augen Manor was there, he could find someone to evaluate its value at any time.
The other party was a smart woman. She wouldn't lie in this kind of situation.
"What do you know about that mysterious guy?"
"Why did Symede Augen go there?"
Kieran asked.
"These two questions are actually one, but … I don't know!"
"Is there a need to be so shocked?"
Anne Aldrich Augen's smile widened when she saw Kieran's slightly surprised look. Her smile seemed to be able to attract sunlight.
It made his face even more radiant.
"I'm married to Symede Augen. Since you're with the chief officer, wouldn't you understand my intentions?"
"So it's impossible for me to interfere with things that I shouldn't interfere with. Actually, from a certain aspect, I have to thank that mysterious man. If it wasn't for him, I might have to use other ways to get rid of Symede Augen. That old man is much more dangerous and scary than you guys can imagine."
When Anne Aldrich Augen mentioned her husband, she didn't just call him by his name directly, it was accompanied by heavy disgust and scruples.
"How many men did Symede Augen bring with him when he went to Winchester House?"
Kieran asked after some slight thoughts.
The number of bodies found in the Winchester House explosion case was five.
Among them, it was confirmed to be Symede Augen and Barney the Jackal's men, Rudder.
The remaining three bodies were unknown.
After his initial theory was overthrown, searching for clues from the bodies became the only clue that Kieran could pursue.
"One!
Tonita, Mayer's driver and bodyguard. He was once a very famous fighter and a pitiful fellow who had his arm broken by Mayer. "
"In fact, you are really lucky to escape from Mayer last night. He is a stubborn bastard, once he accepted the request to protect me, he would never change his mind and chase after the enemy, otherwise, your neck would have been broken!"
When the name Mayer was mentioned, Anne Aldrich Augen's face showed a sense of weirdness.
It was a mix of complaints, unwillingness, sweetness, pride and many other emotions.
Kieran raised a brow.
He wasn't a stranger to such an expression.
In [The Shaman's Partner], Ellie Jones always showed such an expression to him.
In [The Queen's Shield], Mary had the same tendency as well.
However, Kieran didn't think Anne Aldrich Augen should show such an expression.
It gave Kieran the most direct impression of the name Mayer.
It wasn't just that strength anymore.
Another disguise?
Kieran guessed out of instinct.
But right after that, Kieran shook his head.
The overflowing pride on Anne Aldrich Augen's face was definitely not faked. If the other party had really reached such a level, Anne Aldrich Augen would definitely not be faked.
If she could really achieve such a level of strength, the scariness of the woman before Kieran's eyes would be beyond imagination.
Even if she didn't have any powerful strength, it would still be the same.
"Thank you for your cooperation. Now, can we complete our first deal?"
Kieran said.
The scrutinizing gaze in his eyes got heavier.
The worst situation might not happen but if it did, it would be best to be prepared.
Kieran was used to preparing for a rainy day, he directly raised Anne Aldrich Augen's danger level by two levels.
"You really can't wait!"
Anne Aldrich Augen said so but her actions weren't slow at all.
She raised her hand and the driver further away came over with a phone.
"Is this Chief Greg?"
"It's like this … No, no, I'm not asking what you are going to do but what I want you to do. Now, right now, right now, I want to see you revoke the false arrest warrant on Chief Teresa during the press conference and restore her position! What? You want a scapegoat? "
"What does that have to do with me? I'm just helping Chief Teresa, as for the others? I'll leave it up to you. "
Anne Aldrich Augen didn't hide anything in front of Kieran and directly ordered the superior that Teresa mentioned.
That's right, it was an order.
It was like ordering the kitchen maid or the gardener in the house.
Besides, under Anne Aldrich Augen's order, Chief Greg was faster than expected.
Ten minutes later, Kieran saw Chief Greg appear on the TV in the coffee house.
Just like what Hoskin described.
The bald spot was still fresh in Kieran's mind.
"Is that okay?"
Anne Aldrich Augen asked after Chief Gregory confessed that he was deceived by Teresa's deputy and withdrew the arrest warrant for the female chief officer.
"Sure."
Kieran nodded and passed the original recording to him.
"It's more satisfying than I thought … Don't tell me you want more copies?"
Anne Aldrich Augen asked after receiving the recording.
"Some self-defense measures."
Kieran said calmly.
"A man who isn't sincere won't be welcomed by the ladies. You should be braver, such as …"
Anne Aldrich Augen said.
She probably wanted to mock Kieran.
But before she could finish, Kieran, who was sitting opposite her, suddenly exploded.
He held her in his arms.
The sudden hug stunned Anne Aldrich Augen for a moment. She then raised her knee and launched a kick at Kieran's crotch.
The merciless kind.
However, her knee was caught by Kieran's thighs.
"Don't move if you don't want to die!"
Kieran shouted and jumped back with Anne Aldrich Augen.
Only then did Anne Aldrich Augen realize a layer of mist had appeared around them without her knowing.
More importantly, the dining table and chairs that she and Kieran were sitting on melted.
It was like a lit candle melting under the flame.
"What happened?"
