But it also depends on who is listening. At least in the ears of a few scammers, this story is full of loopholes.
First, the most obvious question is, how did Maxford die?
Fate killed the rival clown?
Is it possible? It's not impossible. After all, none of the players present know Fate. If Lake thinks it is possible, it means that Fate is not a purely good person.
The question is, if Fate killed Maxford personally, then why when Lake disappeared, he chose to contact the Golden House to find someone first, instead of directly suspecting that Chen Xi used the same method to kill Lake to counter Yu Ximu?
Could it be that this group leader wants to use Huang Jinwu to expose Chen Xi's dirty tricks?
But how could he be so confident that the Golden House could not find out that he had committed murder?
Imagine, when a murderer finds out that his rival has "taken away" the clown in the same way, shouldn't he immediately realize that his plan is likely to have been exposed and lead to revenge, and thus become more cautious?
How could he possibly contact a third party and put himself on the spot?
Also, even if Lake was impersonated by Longjing, Fate's reaction when he saw Lake again could not be fake. He was only concerned about where the other party had gone, but did not mention at all whether Lake's disappearance had anything to do with Chenxi. This was not the reaction of a murderer at all.
Even if he wanted to avoid suspicion, he should have tried it, but he did nothing, which was totally illogical.
Thinking of this, Cheng Shi frowned slightly and asked:
"Where is Maxford's body?"
Lake shook his head. "I don't know... maybe Mrs. Frode buried him secretly? His death couldn't be known to the outside world."
"You haven't seen his body?"
"Without... what's the point of seeing or not seeing?"
Cheng Shi's eyes flashed with a strange color, and he smiled and said, "Of course it makes sense. If you don't see it with your own eyes, how can you know how Chen Xi's clown died?"
Lake was stunned: "He was strangled to death by Fiter."
“Oh? Really?
Then let me ask you, if the perpetrator were you, after carefully erasing all traces inside and outside, would you choose to strangle Maxford with a rope that was covered in traces?
The other party was obviously drunk and unconscious. Since he didn't resist at all when he started fighting, why didn't he choose a more covert method?
Don't tell me that Fate, who can contact Blacks, can't even buy a bottle of colorless and odorless poison."
"I..." Lake was confused.
“Also, what was Maxford strangled to death with?
I mentioned the rope, but do you know what the real murder weapon was?"
"I..." Lake was not stupid. He thought of something from Cheng Shi's tone. His face suddenly turned pale and he said, "...I don't know. Mrs. Frode didn't say."
Hearing this, Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice:
"In other words, everything you know about the murder was dictated to you by Mrs. Frod. You didn't see the crime scene, the so-called murder weapon, or even the body, yet you simply believed her one-sided account?"
“…”
These words directly broke Lake's defenses. He really wanted to say that Mrs. Frode was crying sincerely. It couldn't be fake, right?
But he also knew that this didn't mean anything. He didn't think so at the time, but now he thinks it's full of doubts.
But Lake couldn't believe that he had been deceived.
Even if we don't know the murder weapon, what about the footprints? They are definitely Fate's. He even threw away his shoes to cover up the traces.
Hearing this, the Grand Marshal began to sigh.
He shook his head repeatedly, then laughed as he sat on the chair, "Although I don't do murders in such a flashy way, I do know that assassination requires stealth. Since Fate knew he had to throw away his shoes afterwards, why did he wear those 'obvious' shoes to commit the crime?
Even if I just pick up a pair from Chenxi, can't I clear myself of the charges? "
“…”
Indeed, there are so many loopholes here!
Lake was dumbfounded. He curled up in the corner, with countless expressions flashing across his face at once, shock, fear, worry, or anxiety. He didn't know what was going on in his confused mind. He just hoped that the experiences of the past few days were all a dream, and that he would wake up from this dream soon.
However, the nightmare had just begun for him.
The three scammers present sneered at the same time, and Zhen Xin became the "worst" villain.
She looked down at the clown with a meaningful smile on her face.
"If all this was told to you by Mrs. Froude, and you didn't see it with your own eyes, how can you be sure that Maxford is really dead?"
“!??”
Lake shuddered violently and collapsed to the ground.
He felt like the sky had collapsed on him.
