Chapter 676: Attack
Translator: Dess Editor: EbonyFrost
Regarding the explosion case of the Winchester House, Kieran performed multiple speculations based on the clues in his hand .
His final conclusion was Barney the Jackal helped Brigal to dispose of the stolen goods, so he bought the entire Winchester House and to cover his traces, he killed the original owner's family of three, thus killing the witnesses and eliminated the evidence .
Then, the stolen treasures from Edland Museum attracted Symende Augen as a buyer .
Though whether Barney the Jackal raised the price on the spot or Symende Augen wanted to double-cross him, or even some unexpected player interrupting in the midst of the trade, accidents happened and the entire Winchester House was blown sky high .
It was the general conclusion that Kieran could think of but after Anne Aldrich Augen told her side of the story, Kieran was forced to refute all of his theories .
"The one who bought Winchester House wasn't Barney the Jackal?" Kieran asked in an attempt to find out more .
While facing against Anne Aldrich Augen, Kieran's character couldn't allow him to trust anything she had to say . No one could guarantee the things that she said weren't a lie .
From how Kieran looked at her, lying had become her second nature .
"Barney the Jackal? That little thug that disposed of stolen goods? Oh, you are talking about the thieving case at Edland Museum?"
"Well truth be told, that batch of treasures might be valuable treasures in your people's eyes but after you've seen Symende's treasure room, you'll notice that the stolen treasures were too ordinary . The carpet that you tore apart when you broke in last night, that piece alone was worth more than almost everything from the stolen batch of treasures . " She laughed .
It wasn't to boast but she said it like stating the facts, of course mixing in a slight sense of mockery .
Kieran was unmoved by those mockeries . He was born poor and couldn't understand how the rich thought, nor would he understand why Symende Augen treated an antique carpet as a daily item .
But, one thing was for sure, Anne Aldrich Augen wasn't lying because the manor was built right there and Kieran could simply find a person to evaluate the price of the items inside .
Anne Aldrich Augen was a smart woman, she wouldn't make up lies on such a fragile stand .
"What do you know about that mysterious guy? Why did Symende Augen go to that place?" Kieran asked .
"These two question is actually one question but… I don't know!"
"Do you have to be so surprised?"
When she saw Kieran's surprised face, Anne Aldrich Augen's smile became brighter, that smile seemed to attract even the sunlight . It made her face even more dazzling and beautiful .
"Since you can be with that lady chief officer, then how could you not understand my goal of marrying Symende Augen? That is why I would never interfere with things that I shouldn't touch . In fact, I have to thank that mysterious guy from a certain aspect . Without him, I'm afraid I have to use other methods to ditch that old geezer Symende Augen, he is much more dangerous and scary than what you people can imagine . "
When she mentioned her husband, Anne Aldrich Augen didn't only call out in his full name but also utter it with immense disgust and scruple .
"When Symende Augen headed to Winchester House, how many men did he bring with him?" Kieran asked after thinking deeply .
A total of five bodies were found in the Winchester explosion, two of them could very well be Symende Augen and Rudal, Barney's subordinate .
The remaining three bodies were unidentified yet and after his original theory was refuted, finding leads from the bodies became the only thing he could go after .
"One! Tonita, his driver and also his bodyguard . Once a famous fighter but that poor guy that had his arm broken by Mayer once . "
"To be honest, you are really lucky that you've escaped from Mayer last night . He is a stubborn fella, after accepting my protection request he wouldn't change his motives to chase you, otherwise your neck had already been broken!"
Anne Aldrich Augen looked weird when she mentioned the name, Mayer .
