“So, you’re saying …” John continued,”Sam didn’t actually know the secret of my birth from Miller, so he came to the island yesterday and was ready to make up with me?”

“Yes, I am.” Feng bujue answered without thinking.

“Ridiculous!” John asked,”then how do you explain Miller’s recording? And how do you explain Sam paying Miller?”

“It’s very simple. ” “Miller is blackmailing Sam,” Feng bujue said.

“Ha?” John was so shocked that he didn’t know what to ask next.

“If it’s really as you say …” Zuo Yan’s mind was clear, and he immediately continued,”then I’m curious … Why would Miller blackmail Sam? Does he have anything on Sam?”

“There is.” Feng bujue looked like he had already thought of the answer.

This time, even Sam was shocked. This man was asking himself “did I?” in his heart.

“Let me re-enact what happened a year ago and correct the mistakes in your reasoning.” Feng bujue continued confidently,”about a year ago, Miller did not ‘manage to find Sam’ but ran into him on the street.

“After Miller recognized Sam, his experienced criminal mind immediately made him think … That there was something to be gained from this person.

“So, he followed Sam and found out where he lived and worked. Then, he appeared in front of Sam and threatened …’I’m going to tell your colleagues and friends your true ident.i.ty’.”

“Wait …” Zuo Yan had already caught on to some clues from these few sentences and interrupted,”What do you mean … By ‘true ident.i.ty’?”

“Ha …” Feng bujue laughed.”This … No one here knows, but … Since last night, I’ve been talking to Sam for quite some time, so I know …” He paused.”The current Sam lives in New York; In the US, he didn’t use the name ‘Sam Herbert’, but ‘Sam Parker’.”

“What?” Dawst’s eyes widened as he exclaimed.

“There’s nothing strange about this. ” Feng bujue said,”let’s put ourselves in your shoes … Let’s say you are a rich second generation Playboy who spent every day in the social circle before the age of thirty, and your father happens to be a rich man who has his face and name printed on a can and is quite famous in Europe; One day, you suddenly lose all your property in a lawsuit and bear the infamy of a swindler. At that time … What should you do? How can you start a new life like a normal person?”

“Travel to the other side of the ocean, conceal one’s ident.i.ty, change one’s appearance …” Zuo Yan muttered the answer.

“Pa! Pa!”

Brother Jue snapped his fingers.

At the same time, he looked at Zuo Yan in approval, but the latter did not seem to be happy at all.

Several seconds later, Feng bujue continued,”without a doubt … This is the reason why Miller wanted to strangle Sam …”

“In the past seven years, Sam finally managed to gain a foothold in the United States and found a stable job with a high income that he felt could display his talents and realize the value of his life. He also had a girlfriend that he could talk about marriage with, and some real friends who were not his fair-weather friends.

“In this case, if Miller appeared and told everyone around him that he’s a liar and that his ident.i.ty is fake, I think you can imagine the impact and consequences.

“In summary … Miller has enough capital to control Sam.”

When he said this, Sam’s face was filled with a look of “WTF?” , But in his heart, he was muttering: “If I didn’t know that I was hiring a killer, I would have believed it.”

“In the following year …” On the other side, Feng bujue continued to narrate.”Sam gave Miller quite a lot of money, just like you said …” He looked at Zuo Yan and said,”in order to not leave any evidence, Miller had been using a secret message on the public message board to ask Sam out to make the payment face to face, and the places he chose to do so were all public places … Why would he do that? Of course, it was because he was blackmailing Sam. He didn’t want to leave any call records or other evidence, but he also had to be careful of Sam doing anything to him. When Miller received the money, he asked Sam to give him cash directly, just like yesterday. This way, there would be no bank transfer records. ”

“Hold on!” At this moment, John interrupted him again.”You just said … That it was a ‘coincidence’ that Miller and Sam came to the island on the same day, but now …”

“That was just a moment ago.” Feng bujue did not even allow the other to finish his question.”I was just trying to match your ‘bullsh * t’ earlier and give you a logical conclusion. That explanation was to show you … In a situation where there is no evidence, using ‘coincidence’ can easily refute your question. But now … I’m talking about the real case …”

“Are you trying to say …” The next second, Zuo Yan narrowed his eyes and continued brother Jue’s conversation.”The reason why Miller and Sam came to the island on the same day is because Miller asked Sam to come to the island to pay?”

“Idiot! You’ve already been led into his logic!” Victor warned Zuo Yan from the dark, but it was too late. Zuo Yan had already said it.

“Well, you’re a famous detective indeed. Your reaction is very fast.” Feng bujue continued,”and then … Sam, who came to his hometown, suddenly felt a sense of melancholy and reminiscence. He thought of the grudges he had in the past … He felt that kins.h.i.+p was the most important. After all, he was Living a Good Life now, so … He suddenly decided to visit John and reconcile with him.”

“You’d better stop!” John couldn’t take it anymore.

At this moment, John and the other two people in the room were like women who were pressed to the ground and violently abused. However, this violence came from the mental level …

“According to what you said … No one paid Miller to do it, right? Then why did he come to kill me?” John shouted.

“To let Sam inherit your inheritance.” Feng bujue said.

“Ha?” John didn’t know how many times he had reacted like this. He was on the verge of tears.

“Isn’t it obvious …” Feng bujue said.”Miller was blackmailing both of you at the same time. Even though you are very rich, you only gave him a small amount of money every month, but Sam, who is a wage earner, could give him a large sum every time. Comparing the two, Miller would of course think that blackmailing Sam is more cost-effective, but he also understood…That Sam doesn’t have that much money for him to exploit. Then…From Miller’s Point of view, what do you think can be done to adjust this situation?”
