Wine and Gun

"He..." muttered Mr. Holmes. "He killed a fucking client."

In the future, Emma will also know that this may not even be the first client that Mr. Armalette killed: if he was really a Westland pianist, there were indeed several deceased clients of their law firm, Those few people are not even just Mr. Armalite's clients, but at least three other lawyers' clients... but when one of the law firm's partners says to you solemnly "I want to see the file of the case you have been in charge of recently. "How do you know if he's trying to find out about your recent work or murder your client?

Even some of the deceased were important clients of their biggest competitors. When these guys died, these lace news were brought out by Holmes to talk about in the office.

The moment Holmes put down the phone, he certainly didn't think much of it. At that time, Emma was just at a loss because of her boss's sudden gaffe, and she didn't even think that it would be related to Mr. Armalite.

She wouldn't know, at this time, there are still thirteen months and five days before she loses her job.

Emma sat restlessly at the edge of the elegant wrought iron round table. On the glass table was the coffee she ordered for herself. Her throat was dry, but she couldn't drink anything.

Emma now looks exactly like a ubiquitous traveler - imagine this scene: an elegantly dressed blond professional woman sitting in a coffee shop under a multicolored parasol on the side of the road with centuries-old On the small gravel road, countless tourists walked past her, all with relaxed and happy smiles on their faces. Looking ahead of the street from where Emma was sitting, the Eiffel Tower could be seen shining with a metallic sheen under a blue sky.

That's right, it's the fourth day since Emma received that mysterious letter, and she's in Paris, sitting in front of a historic coffee shop waiting for a murderer to interview her, and she's suspicious every quarter of an hour Once you are not crazy.

The letter, as succinct as those approvals Mr. Armalette had written in the corner of the document, read: "Miss Emma Grant, I happen to hear that you have not been able to find a suitable job recently, and if you are still I have a suitable position here if you are interested in the type of cases you handle at A\u0026H Law Firm. If you are available next week, I hope to interview you."

Emma's mind went blank for a minute after reading the letter...Interview? ! Was it really a fugitive who was wanted by the FBI? It's creepy to think that Armalette seems to know what's going on with her. Also, what is "the type of case you are in charge of at A\u0026H Law Firm"? Everyone knows that this law firm is for gangsters in lawsuits.

But maybe she wasn't really dreaming, because there was also a beautiful coffee shop brochure in the envelope. The time and place were written in the same handwriting on the cover of the booklet, and a ticket was attached. The landing place was Paris Charles. Charles de Gaulle International Airport.

She is now sitting under the warm sunshine of Paris in summer, and she still feels like a dream. Others will definitely point out to her that the guy who has been invited by a murderer and will go there is a lunatic, and Emma did have a nightmare of being murdered and dismembered overnight... Now, the time written in the previous brochure It was about to arrive, and Emma kept looking down at her watch. When the hands jumped to exactly three o'clock, she couldn't help but shiver slightly.

At the same time, a hand pulled away the chair opposite her.

"Good afternoon, Emma."

The voice she was very familiar with said.

Emma's job loss can be said to be expected.

Most of the A\u0026H firm had a pretty bad time following the arrest of Herstal Armalite, and even the firm itself was soon renamed "Holmes Law Firm", although this Law firms often plead not guilty to all kinds of murderers, but they really don't need to put a murderer's name on the sign.

In the first few months, before Mr. Armalette's case went to trial, Emma, ​​who was the person who had the closest contact with Armalette other than Holmes, was questioned several times by the police. Every time she had to leave her job, she could feel the eyes of many colleagues stuck on her back, whispering to her like the shadows hidden under the bed that she feared when she was a child. Unseen places squirm.

Because everyone will be curious: is there any sign of a person before becoming a murderer? Is he different from others, more crippled or more insane? What was wrong with him, just like the foreshadowing of the novel, when the truth was revealed, it felt creepy?

Apparently, they thought Emma would be the insider, since she was Amalette's paralegal, they were in the same room for almost ten hours a day, and Emma should have known the dark thoughts in his mind.

She should know the strangeness of the other party, and understand the dark tones hidden under the human skin; they are lawyers fighting murderers, and she should know the truth when she smells that.
