    "You are right. There is no room for overturning that inheritance case Seven years later, the available evidence has basically been lost. Whatever we say here can only be inferences." Zuo Yan continued.  He said, "This is also the reason why you can maintain such a fearless attitude."

    "I am confident because I have a clear conscience." John's tone was a bit proud, "Unlike some people" He said, his eyes moved to Sam, "I will soon be punished for buying  The murderer is in jail.¡±

    "That's not necessarily the case." When Feng Bujue interrupted, he also stood up and stepped forward to refill himself a glass of red wine. "Many times a thing that seems unquestionable at first glance has its essence completely different from its appearance."

    When he said these words, John, Sam, and Dost didn't hear anything interesting, they just thought it was a trick.

    But Zuo Yan already smelled something strange in these words; Vidocq, who was hiding in the dark, was even more shocked when he heard the words The feeling of being seen through made him almost explode.

    "Classmate Zuo Yan, please continue." Two seconds later, Feng Bujue picked up the refilled red wine glass. While walking back to his seat, he looked at Zuo Yan and added.

    "Hmm Okay." Zuo Yan hesitated for a moment, then continued, "As of this point in time, the situation is relatively clear What Miller has mastered is very fatal to John. As long as Miller exposes John  He had no blood relationship with old Herbert, so legally speaking, he was an outsider living in Herbert's family without even the adoption procedures.

    "In this way even if the so-called 'will' was really forged by Sam, it would not have any impact on the order of inheritance; because old Herbert never left any real will So, in  After it is determined that the existing will is false, the Herbert family's property should be distributed according to the general rules of inheritance law, and the only legal heir to the property is Sam.

    "Of course, even so, John is not in Miller's hands. After all, John has a lot of resources at hand; if Miller exposes the matter, John will definitely hire some expensive lawyers to help him fight.  This lawsuitwhether it starts with the 'de facto adoption relationship recognized by law' or makes an issue with the 'limitation of action in inheritance law'it cannot be said that there is no chance of winning.

    "There is no doubt that when Miller started blackmailing John, John had already settled the account, but he had a guilty conscience after all God knows if there are any loopholes left in the inheritance case, so John still  Gave money.

    "However, he didn't give much; as a businessman, John was naturally well versed in bargaining skills. He calculated Miller's account clearly and put it on the table to discuss with the other party.

    "We are both involved in the case, and we have the same guilty conscience. It would be of no benefit to Miller to expose the matter It is nothing more than harming others and not benefiting himself. In addition, there is a new crime of 'extortion' If the two of them really fight,  If the fish is dead and the net is broken, Miller will be even worse.

    ¡°So, after some ¡®negotiation¡¯, this extortion turned into a situation similar to charity.

    "For the past three years, John has transferred a sum of money in his own name to an overseas account every month. The owner of the account is of course Miller. The amount of money is not too much or too little, which is about the monthly income of a middle-class person.  salary.

    "For John, it doesn't matter at all. His cost of raising a dog is higher than this; and for Millerat least initially, this condition was good, because that was when he was at his most depressed.  At that time, people who were about to end up living on the streets were usually not picky about money.

    "However not long after, Miller, who had been living a subsistence life for nothing, began to be greedy again

    "After calming down, he must have realized that he clearly held such a major secret, but only received scraps of profit; so, unbalanced, he gradually became dissatisfied with life, and then ran away  He vents on social media, and then wants to go back to his old jobbut he doesn't want to risk giving up the stable 'income' he already has.

    ¡°In the end, all Miller could think of was to go to John to renegotiate, but he was forcefully rejected.

    "Shortly after that happened he approached Sam."

    Having said this, Zuo Yan was silent for a moment, as if waiting for everyone here to digest this information.

    "I understand Miller's motive for finding John. It's just for money" After a while, Feng Bujue was the first to speak, "But what does he want to do when he finds Sam?"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "This guyhas been asking questions knowingly" At the same time, hiding in the ventilation ductVidocq in Daoli muttered something in his heart.

    "What?" No one else could hear these words, but Zuo Yan could. He immediately asked in a mental dialogue, "Are you talking about Brother Jue?"

    "I don't know for what purpose, but he seems to have been guiding our narrative, asking us to explain the case in as much detail as possible" Vidocq replied, "But in fact I can feel that he  See as far as I can.¡±

    "This" Zuo Yan thought for a while, "Then he intends to help us?"

    "I don't know." Vidocq replied, "Anywayyou continue to tell me, and I will observe and observe"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Others could not hear a word of the inner dialogue between the man and the cat. In their opinion, Zuo Yan just thought for a while without saying a word.

    Then, he said again: "It's very simple, it's also for money, but the amount and the way to get it are very different."

    "I understand!" Suddenly, Daost shouted out with a loud voice. Judging from his suddenly enlightened expression, he was like a child who had finally solved a very difficult riddle. "As long as John is killed, it will be announced that he is not a murderer."  The secret of old Herbert's biological son, then there will be no lawsuit. At least the part of his property that belongs to the Herbert family should be inherited by Sam!"

    "Actually, it's okay if he doesn't announce it." Zuo Yan continued, "To put it another wayif Miller doesn't tell the secret, then in the eyes of outsiders, after John's death, his property will be his only one in the world.  The 'younger brother' inherited."

    "The truth about John's life experience is Miller's trump card." At this moment, Sam, who looked solemn, answered again, "In case I am blocked in the process of inheriting the inheritance, he can use that to come back; in addition, when  When he first came to me, he already knew that as long as he showed me his cards, I would help him."
