"Mr. Justice, please listen to me. I came to you and Lisa because I can't think of anyone else who would listen to me and believe that my husband is innocent."

Daphne said with tears in her eyes.

Musk shrugged, resisting the urge to tell the truth: Deep down, he didn't believe Maxim Wenders was innocent either.

"My husband did lie to the police. Rebecca did not die in a shipwreck. She was already a corpse before Maxim dragged her onto the sailboat."

"That night, Maxim alone drove Rebecca's body to the sea, then opened the sea valve, causing the sailboat to sink to the bottom of the sea. He rowed the famous lifeboat back to the shore, pretending that nothing happened."

"When someone asked about Rebecca's whereabouts, he said that he was sailing out to sea and disappeared in the storm. It was not until Rebecca's body was washed ashore by the tide along with the sunken ship and was discovered by the police that he had to admit that he had made it up. lie."

Lisa didn't know whether to laugh or cry when Daphne said this.

"My dear friend, aren't the details you mentioned exactly the same as the testimony released by Mrs. Danvers in court? This can only prove that your husband did murder his previous wife."

"No no! Lisa, please listen to me, things are not as simple as you think!" Daphne replied excitedly, "The key is that on the night of the crime, Maxim and Rebecca were in the dock where the sailboat was parked. There was a heated argument."

"Yes, and Mrs. Danvers was outside the door at the time. She heard the sound of your husband shooting Rebecca and witnessed the whole process of him moving the body." Musk said impatiently.

"But have you ever thought about why Mrs. Danvers was outside the door at that time?" Daphne asked suddenly.

Musk was stunned for a moment, vaguely feeling that this was not a coincidence.

"It's hard to say that Rebecca was very dissolute during her lifetime. She often met her lover in the docks on the seaside in the name of rowing at night, while Mrs. Danvers, whom she trusted most, acted as a sentry for her mistress. Watchdog."

Daphne took a deep breath and continued:

"Maxim had known about Rebecca's infidelity for a long time. He just wanted to protect the honor of the family and could not divorce her. He kept it until that night, maybe because he had a few too many drinks and he couldn't bear it anymore. Angry, he broke into the dock alone with a shotgun and scolded Rebecca for her shamelessness. "

"It was also a coincidence that Rebecca's lover had something to do that night and was unable to come to the appointment. Mrs. Danvers was also dozing off and did not stop Maxim from breaking into the dock in time until she was awakened by the couple's quarrel."

"In the dock, Rebecca faced her husband's rebuke. Instead of repenting, she shamelessly told Maxim that she was pregnant with her lover's child. This bastard would be imprisoned in the name of Maxim's son. After being born, he will inherit the Wenders family’s estate, including this Manderley Manor.”

"Maxim was deeply angered and wanted to shoot this shameless woman. However, he finally restrained his impulse, threw the gun on the ground, and told Rebecca face to face that he would marry this bitch at all costs. If my wife gets a divorce, the scandalous things she has done must be made public!”

"After saying these words, Maxim turned and left."

"Rebecca's self-esteem was hurt by Maxim's disdainful attitude, and perhaps she was worried that her dissolute behavior would be exposed, so she became angry, picked up the shotgun, and threatened Maxim to return to her immediately and take back those words."

"Poor Maxim, who was completely heartbroken by this woman, ignored her threats and continued to walk out the door."

"At this time, Rebecca fired a shot into the sky in an attempt to scare Maxim. As a result, she accidentally fell and the back of her head fell on a wooden wedge, and she died accidentally."

"After Rebecca died, Maxim also panicked and tried to disguise Rebecca's death as a shipwreck."

"The reason why he made this irrational choice was first of all because he didn't want to make the family scandal public, and secondly because under the circumstances at that time, he really couldn't clear himself of the murder suspicion."

"These things were all told to me by Maxim himself. He dares to swear in the name of the Lord that this is the whole truth about Rebecca's death!"

Daphne wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked up at Musk and Lisa, her eyes were extremely hot.

"I believe everything Maxim says, but that's not enough. Lisa, Mr. Justice, for the sake of the Lord, I beg you to try to clear poor Maxim's name and help me." Make the truth of the case known to the public!”

Her friend begged with tears in her eyes, but Lisa couldn't bear it and turned to look at Musk: "Dear, Daphne is so pitiful, let's help her?"

Musk reluctantly nodded and said seriously to Daphne: "Mrs. Wenders, Lisa and I will try our best to help you, but I have to say some unpleasant things up front. We will not take sides during the investigation. , in case the truth finally discovered goes against your expectations, I hope you can face it calmly. "

"Don't worry, Mr. Justice, I have prepared for the worst." Daphne replied with a choked sob.

"Okay, Mrs. Wenders, you go home and wait for the news. Lisa and I will be busy next." Musk stood up to see off the guests.

Daphne finally found the right person.

The presiding judge in Wenders' wife-killing case was Lisa's father, George Colt. Through this relationship, Musk was allowed to enter the detention center that evening in the name of the defense lawyer hired by Mrs. Wenders for her husband.

Lisa accompanied him to visit Mr. Wenders in the detention center. She was nominally the assistant of the young lawyer Musk Justice, an inconspicuous girl carrying bags. In fact, the role she played in this meeting tonight was even more crucial than Musk himself.

"Mr. Wenders, I am entrusted by your wife to defend your case. Before that, I hope to have a frank conversation with you."

In the reception room of the detention center, Musk looked at Maxim Wenders, who looked haggard, across the table.

"Let's skip the routine nonsense, Mr. Justice. If you want to know anything, just ask, and I will answer truthfully."

Mr. Wenders' attitude was very unfriendly.

What Musk saw in his eyes was not a guilty conscience, but more like a kind of self-abandonment.

"First, let's review the details of the night of the incident..."

Musk calmly guided the topic and asked Mr. Wenders to recount the cause and effect of Rebecca's death.

Mr. Wenders was in a very depressed mood, but he still patiently answered every question, and the details he described were exactly the same as what Daphne said.
