Jacob's expression froze, as if he found it difficult to speak, but after a while, he gritted his teeth and told him what Thomas Schindler had done.
"My father always wanted to treat Schindler & Co. as his own child. To be honest, if my mother hadn't schemed against him, I probably wouldn't have been born at all."
Jacob said with a wry smile:
"So he always hoped to make Schindler & Co. bigger and stronger during his lifetime. For this reason, when he discovered Sawada, a computer genius, he was ecstatic and wanted to bring him into his company immediately."
Having said that, he cast his gaze towards Sawada Hiroki, who had a complicated expression, and asked as if to confirm with him:
"Am I right about this?"
Feeling the gazes cast at him by others because of his words, Hiroki Sawada pursed his lips and nodded silently to show that what he said was not wrong.
Seeing this, Jacob ignored him and continued to say to the police half-truthfully:
"But he's just a child. No matter how powerful he is, he's still just a child who hasn't reached adulthood yet. So my father came up with an idea - adoption."
He pursed his lips and continued:
"As long as I can adopt him as my own child, then how can I call it employing child labor if I use the things my child makes in my own company? Plus, Sawada himself loves computers, so after his mother passed away, it was natural for him to be adopted by my father."
"But isn't this nice?"
The man who had questioned him first frowned again and said:
"Although it was a borderline case, it was a mutually agreed-upon matter. How could the other party possibly hate your father in return?"
Of course he realized that the child Jacob was talking about was Hiroki Sawada, so when he said this, his eyes were always looking at him.
But apart from confusion and a hint of emotions that were too complex for him to distinguish, the man did not see any guilt on his face.
At this time, Hiroki Sawada also reacted.
It had never occurred to him that Jacob would doubt him.
Although he really wanted to leave Thomas Schindler and did feel that his current life was very depressing, the way he thought of was to give up his own life rather than kill someone.
So after realizing what he said, Sawada Hiroki rarely spoke up to refute:
"Yes, no matter what, I am grateful to Mr. Schindler. Without him, I would not have been able to complete my research."
Although what he developed was also one of the reasons why he was under strict surveillance...
But like he said, he didn't hate him.
"But what if you knew he was involved in your mother's death?"
Jacob had known that Hiroki Sawada would say this, so he naturally thought about how to respond.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Hiroki Sawada's expression changed instantly.
"You...you...what did you say?"
What if his mother's death had something to do with him?
Who is it related to?
and Thomas Schindler.
Whose death is related to Thomas Schindler?
It's his mother...
For a moment, Hiroki Sawada even felt that the whole world was beginning to collapse, and the voice in his ears became unreal again. This also prevented him from refutating his words at the first time, and he could only let him continue to throw dirty water on him.
However, Hiroki Sawada stood there in a daze, unable to react, but the bodyguard standing next to him was not stunned.
He looked down at Sawada Hiroki worriedly, then raised his head again, looked at Jacob, and said in a cold voice:
"Sorry to interrupt, but how do you know that Hiroki knows about what you're talking about? If he doesn't know..."
Then everything Jacob said would not be true.
"It's you, who has always been hated and ignored by Mr. Schindler, who would do such a thing out of hatred, right? As for blaming Hiroki for this, it's probably out of jealousy, right?"
"Huh? What are you talking about? Why would I be jealous of him? In the future, the entire Schindler Company will be mine. Why would I be jealous of him? Envious of his lack of freedom? Or jealous that he worked so hard to create something, only to have to hand it over to his enemy in the end?"
Jacob felt a little nervous.
He felt that the development of things seemed to be different from what the person on the phone said, but when he thought of the plan the other party told him, his heart settled down again, and even his face returned to normal.
It was at this time that Hiroki Sawada came to his senses.
He seemed to have only heard him say that he was jealous of him, and he couldn't help but mutter:
"Yeah... why should I be jealous... I don't even have the right to play freely in the park..."
but……
"I really didn't know what you were talking about. If I had known earlier..."
If he had known earlier...
Hiroki Sawada was a little unable to continue, but he didn't need to say the rest because Jacob had already filled in the blanks for him.
"If you had known earlier, you would have taken action earlier, right?"
Of course, what he added was completely different from what Hiroki Sawada originally wanted to say, and there was no similarity at all.
Unfortunately, the people around him seemed to believe what he said, and those who were originally gathered around Hiroki Sawada unconsciously moved to the side.
If it's just one person doing it, it might not be obvious, but when everyone does it...
Hiroki Sawada looked at the people who had moved away from him in an instant, then looked at Amemiya who was still standing firmly beside him without any movement, and unconsciously moved closer to him.
Especially after the police determined the cause of Thomas Schindler's death and found the toxin that caused his death in a piece of cake...
Hiroki Sawada subconsciously grabbed the corner of Amemiya's clothes.
“This cake…”
"I brought it to Mr. Schindler, but I really didn't poison him."
Hiroki Sawada pursed his lips. It was the first time he was wrongly accused, and it was such a big thing that his brain was almost shut down, not to mention that he had just learned from Jacob that his mother's death might be related to Thomas Schindler.
Hiroki Sawada felt his mind was in a mess, and he didn't even know what he had said or what he should have said.
Fortunately, Amemiya was by his side.
"Did you examine the food residue in Mr. Schindler's mouth and stomach?"
