You thought you were saving me, but in fact, you got me killed.

“You bastard, even if I become a ghost, I won’t let you off.”

“And you, William Carter, if it weren’t for you, with Lily Scott dead, all of the The Scott Family’s property would have been mine, mine…” Matthew Hill struggled, cursing furiously.

“You beast, I’ll bite you to death!” Patron Scott was furious, lunging forward and kicking and biting wildly—nose, ears… all bitten off. Just like that, Matthew Hill was bitten to death alive.

“Lily, it’s your father’s fault, your father harmed you. It was I who let the wolf into the house, letting this beast into our home…”

“Young Master Carter, you really are impressive. But, how did you figure all this out?” Head Constable Brooks asked admiringly.

“Heh, the net of heaven is vast and wide, but not a single thing slips through.

Although Matthew Hill was furious, there wasn’t a trace of sorrow.

And the perverted killer didn’t actually use a real radish when he stabbed it into the woman’s body, but Matthew Hill didn’t know this.

He took it upon himself to use a real radish.

Just now, Second Young Master Thompson said there was inner qi in the radish, but what I want to say is, he was mistaken.

With Matthew Hill’s strength, he hasn’t cultivated inner qi yet—that’s a skill only those at the ‘Condensed Embryo Realm’ possess.

Since there was no inner qi infused into this radish, the radish itself couldn’t have caused such severe injuries to Lily Scott.

So, it’s all an illusion…” William Carter spoke at length, once again displaying the style of a renowned detective. He had regained the demeanor of the ace investigator he was in his previous life in the Dragon Group.

“Impressive, truly impressive. So, a case can be solved like this too. We were all blinded by the perverted killer and almost let the real murderer go.” Head Constable Brooks stroked his beard, full of amazement.

If he knew this guy was just making things up, who knows if he’d be so angry his stomach would burst.

Actually, if it weren’t for the ‘Great Freedom Causality Eye’, William Carter would have almost been fooled too.

Because, he suddenly discovered that a thread of deathly aura emerging from Lily Scott’s body was actually entangling Matthew Hill, refusing to let go.

It seemed that some kind of causal relationship had formed between the two, and with the experienced eyes from his previous life, he finally caught the real culprit.

“Brother William, I didn’t expect you to have such a talent for solving cases. My apologies.” Eric Harris cupped his fists, and William Carter knew his admiration was sincere.

Because, as he spoke, the ‘popularity’ above his head was nodding toward him, showing it was genuine and not just flattery.

This showed that ‘popularity’ could change its attitude at any time.

Your enemies might even develop goodwill toward you at certain times.

And at this moment, William Carter was surprised to discover—

The ‘popularity’ above Eric Harris’s head, as it nodded, was rushing straight into his own ‘Great Freedom Causality Eye’.

Looking at the ‘popularity’ emerging from Head Constable Brooks and the others, it was also flowing into his causality eye.

In an instant, over a dozen threads of popularity rushed over.

William Carter immediately felt invigorated, his mind clear and refreshed.

He found that the mysterious orb in his glabella was spinning, absorbing this popularity, and gradually growing larger.

However, this kind of causal resonance generated by the other party’s admiration didn’t last long. After just a few dozen breaths, some people’s popularity stopped flowing into William Carter.

Like Eric Harris, who suddenly seemed to realize something, and not only did his popularity stop flowing into William Carter’s causality eye, but it even shifted to the side.

This showed that Eric Harris no longer agreed with him, and was once again standing on a different viewpoint.

Although compared to the very beginning, when his popularity was completely opposite, now it was just slightly off, but it still showed that Eric Harris’s view of him had changed.

Maybe, with a bit more effort, this guy could fully side with him and become someone worth recruiting.

But Charles Thompson was different. Even now, his popularity was still going in the opposite direction, standing in opposition, determined to go against him to the end.

Since that’s the case, he naturally had to deal with this guy, so he smiled and said, “Young Master Thompson, we made a bet just now, didn’t we?”

“That’s right, that’s right, Lord Miller is our witness.” Andrew Carter shouted loudly.

When Charles Thompson heard this, his face instantly turned red.

If he really crawled three circles on the ground like a dog, how could he ever show his face in Edward again?

“Young Master Thompson, I was there too. I’m sure you won’t go back on your word, right? The The Thompson Family is a big family, your word is your bond.” Eric Harris said with a dry laugh.

“This is one thousand taels!” Charles Thompson pulled out a banknote, looking pitifully at William Carter.

“Trying to fob us off?” Andrew Carter and his brother shouted excitedly. If they could fleece him, of course they’d go all out.

Anyway, the three major families of Edward never see eye to eye, so there’s no need to show too much courtesy.

“Two thousand taels, that’s all I have.” Charles Thompson’s face was almost as red as a pig’s liver.

“Money? The The Carter Family still has plenty.” William Carter shook his head indifferently.

“Last year, for my birthday, my father gave me a house in the eastern alley. It’s yours now. And, Young Master Carter, we’re both from the three major families of Edward, there’s no need to fall out, right?” Charles Thompson pleaded.

“Do you admit your mistake?” William Carter snorted from his nose.
