Jingle Bell! Jingle Bell!

The ear-piercing ringtone of the phone woke Margot from her sleep.

Turn on the desk lamp and look at the alarm clock beside the bed, it's 3 in the morning? Who's calling at this hour?

This question didn't last long. Margot quickly remembered the little lover she was obsessed with, and immediately grabbed the phone receiver.

"Hello?" Margot tentatively greeted.

"Margo, it's me!" Josie's voice came from the phone.

"Josie, why did you call me so late? Did that matter come to fruition?" Margot asked tremblingly when she heard that it was indeed Josie.

"There is a result, but it has nothing to do with us." Josie said, his tone was a little weird, but Margot didn't hear it.

"Yes, I understand, it has nothing to do with us!" Margot took a deep breath.

"No, what I said literally means that Tony Wendis is dead, but it wasn't done by our people!" As soon as Josie heard Margot's words, she knew that she wanted to go wrong, so she bluntly said that she would I told you what happened.

Of course, the part where Josie "makes up the knife" was directly hidden by him.

As long as there is no such paragraph, even if their phone calls are monitored now, Tony Wendis' death has nothing to do with Josie.

It was all because Tony Wendis drove drunk, hit someone else's car, and was killed by mistake after a conflict... The police can easily come to this conclusion as long as they investigate the scene a little.

Hearing Josie's words, Margot was stunned for a while, and then ecstasy followed.

After all, she had always been a good girl before, and although she was determined to get rid of the awakening of Tony Wendis, it was impossible to say that she was not apprehensive.

Well now, Tony Wendys is dead and has nothing to do with her.

This made her feel extremely relaxed.

"Josie, I miss you..." Margot, who was in a good mood, couldn't help coddling Josie on the phone, completely ignoring the fact that the dead man was her husband.

"Baby, I miss you too, but it's not the time yet. I guess tomorrow morning, the police should find you. Then you can put a little pressure on the police according to the situation and let them implement this case as soon as possible. Wait until Once the case is over, we can be together in a fair manner." Josie comforted on the phone.

Margot understood.

The two had a deep affection for a while, and then Margot hung up the phone reluctantly.

After hanging up the phone, Margot, who was slightly agitated, did not continue to fall asleep, but happily opened a bottle of champagne for herself.

After drinking for a while, Margot suddenly remembered another thing.

That's my dead ghost husband. As a tennis player, he bought a lot of insurance.

With his death, it seems that he can get a large amount of compensation?

Margot couldn't remember this before, because Josie said that she wanted to make the dead ghost "disappear".

But if it is just missing and death cannot be proved, the insurance company can refuse to pay.

So Margot didn't think about it before.

But now, if this dead ghost is really determined to have been killed by manslaughter, as long as the insurance policy contract does not indicate the result of the injury caused by the third party, and the loss is borne by the third party such a clause, the insurance publicity will have to pay the full amount .

The annual insurance premium of that dead ghost is not low, and Margot has always been paying the money, and the beneficiary is naturally her.

How much is the total compensation? I'm afraid there can be several million?

Good guy, once this dead ghost dies, Margot's net worth will probably be doubled directly.

Good man!

Thinking of this, Margot felt the same sigh as Josie.

The hatred he once had towards Tony Wendis has also completely dissipated.

As a thank you, she decided to hold a decent enough funeral for this guy, otherwise she would be really sorry for the several million in compensation!

Time passed quickly, and it was morning in a blink of an eye.

Just as Josie expected, at eight o'clock in the morning, while Margot was having her morning tea, the police came to the door.

And it was Lieutenant Sheriff Dietrich who was in charge of the case that Josie did last time.

Although the place where Tony Wendis died was not in his jurisdiction, but it was the people in his jurisdiction.

Yes, without incident, Tony Wendys was dead, terribly dead.

At around five in the morning, he was discovered by passers-by. Because of the low temperature, his body was hardened.

Police found numerous bruises from the beating on his body.

But what really caused his death was the severe injury to the back of his head.

"Hello, Mr. Sheriff, I don't know what you can do to find me so early?" In the drawing room, Margot asked the visiting Dietrich while ordering the servant to make coffee.

"I'm sorry to disturb Mrs. Wendis so early, but I regret to inform you that your husband has passed away." Dietrich said.

"What? My husband passed away? What happened?" Margot pretended to be surprised, but she didn't show any sadness, because she wasn't sad at all, and there was no need to pretend to be sad.

Because as long as the police have some ability, it is not difficult to investigate the fact that the relationship between their husband and wife is not harmonious.

Pretending to be sad in this situation is likely to arouse suspicion.

"Mrs. Wendys and Mr. Wendys, don't they seem to be in harmony?" Dietrich asked curiously.

"Hehe, what kind of reason does Mr. Nervous think would make a husband stay away all night without a job?" Margot said quietly.

Hearing Margot's answer, Lieutenant Dietrich suddenly felt that he had asked a stupid question.

After the preliminary investigation results obtained before coming here, he knew the trajectory of the deceased's actions before he was alive... The other party had just come out of the chicken farm before he died.

Leave a young and beautiful wife like Margot alone at home, and go to a place like a chicken farm to find flowers and ask willows all night long.

In this case, if it is said that the couple has a good relationship, a fool would not believe it.

But just as Josie expected, Dietrich did not become suspicious of Margot because of this,

Because according to the situation at the scene of the crime, the police have basically confirmed that Tony Wendis got into a car accident after drinking and was beaten to death by the other party. There were more than one murderer.

More importantly, according to the evidence found at the scene, such as the car that was left at the scene and was damaged, the police have basically locked down the murderer and linked him to the jewelry robbery gang that was recently registered with the police— —that is, the four men in suits that Josie saw.

Coincidentally, those four guys were not just dirty buttocks. In fact, in the previous few months, this group had robbed jewelry stores in Chicago three times, and they themselves had lost their lives.

And it was none other than Lieutenant Dietrich who was in charge of the case of this guy.

For Josie and Margot, it's another good bunch.

It can only be said that there are so many good people.
