Chapter 210: Acupuncture, Finding the Maid
"That family of theirs has developed many poisons that are difficult to cure. The poison your wife was poisoned with this time seems to be one they developed."
The poison that was spread from the refugees before and was finally cured by Jiang Zhi, according to Jiang Zhi's understanding, should have been passed down from their family.
It seemed that they had developed a new poison and wanted to find a group of people to test it.
Jiang Zhi checked it at that time, but was delayed by other things and did not continue the investigation.
Of course, this is not the first time that Jiang Zhi has fought against them, so Jiang Zhi was able to recognize that this poison should be the one developed by their family.
"But it's possible that the poison is not aimed at your wife." Jiang Zhi added: "It may have been obtained by someone with ulterior motives to harm your wife."
Norton Herbert also nodded: "It's possible."
Then he would have to check if there was anyone around him who had contact with that family.
"Alright." Jiang Zhi didn't continue to talk to him about this matter. He just gave him an idea for Meng Qinghuai's sake. "Next, I will give acupuncture to Mrs. Mary Congreve. You need to leave first."
"President Alfred Tobias can stay."
Seeing that Jiang Zhi was really capable, Norton Herbert left the room on his own accord and took several servants out of the room, leaving Jiang Zhi with a quiet environment.
Jiang Zhi's acupuncture lasted for a long time, and Norton Herbert was not idle during this time either. He began to investigate who around him had poisoned Mary Congreve.
When Jiang Zhi came out, a long time had passed.
Lady Mary Congreve also went to bed from exhaustion.
Jiang Zhi and Alfred Tobias were taken by the servants at the door to find Norton Herbert.
Norton Herbert was in the hall, where he had talked with Meng Qinghuai before.
But now his expression was no longer as gentle as the last time Jiang Zhi saw him talking to Meng Qinghuai, but extremely gloomy.
Meng Qinghuai would never make this kind of expression. Compared with Norton Herbert, Meng Qinghuai was different. Meng Qinghuai usually had an aura and expression that kept strangers away, while Norton Herbert usually looked gentle. But when he showed such a cold expression that revealed his true nature, the feeling was completely different.
It feels like falling into an icy cave.
There was someone else in the hall at this time.
Right in front of Norton Herbert was kneeling a middle-aged woman dressed in servant-style clothes. There were two men standing on both sides of her, who looked like the people who escorted her here.
The woman kneeling on the ground had a look of fear on her face.
There was no sign of abnormality on Jiang Zhi and Alfred Tobias' faces.
Norton Herbert looked much better when he saw Jiang Zhi and Alfred Tobias coming out. He said to them, "Please sit wherever you like."
After Jiang Zhi and the other man sat down, he asked again, "Have you finished the acupuncture? How was it, Miss Jiang?"
"Not bad," Jiang Zhi replied, "I will give Mrs. Mary Congreve two more acupuncture treatments later. We can make an appointment then."
"Okay." Norton Herbert replied quickly.
"Norton, what are you doing?" Alfred Tobias asked him when he saw the scene in the hall.
"Humph! I just checked." Norton Herbert's expression turned stern again. He looked at the servant kneeling in front of him. "She was the one who poisoned my wife!"
If Jiang Zhi hadn't said this time that the person who poisoned was most likely someone in his manor, or even someone around them, he would have urgently checked everyone who was often around his wife, and he wouldn't have found the truth so quickly.
He had previously speculated that maybe he had offended some force at some point in the past, which was why Mary Congreve was poisoned and retaliated against.
The servant in front of him burst into tears upon hearing this: "Master, I am innocent, I really know nothing, it was not me who poisoned the Madam, it was not me......"
Norton Herbert looked at her with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person: "Not you? Do you think I would send someone to arrest you if I didn't find out the truth?"
The servant was shocked when he heard this, but he still cried, "It's not me, it's really not me, how dare I poison the lady..."
"Master, please believe me, it really wasn't me."
Norton Herbert gave a look to the men behind him.
The servant understood, stepped forward, opened his cell phone and placed it in front of the maid.
The servant was shocked when he saw the contents on the subordinate's mobile phone.
"me……"
"After reading this, you still dare to tell me it's not you?"
Norton Herbert had installed a lot of surveillance cameras in the villa before, basically without any blind spots, but he would not install surveillance cameras in the rooms.
But after Mary Congreve fell ill, Norton Herbert was worried that something might happen, so he installed a surveillance camera in a hidden corner of Mary Congreve's room.
He didn't tell anyone about this. After Jiang Zhi's reminder, Norton Herbert realized that there was a high possibility that someone in his villa wanted to harm Mary Congreve, so he checked the surveillance in the room.
The servants didn't know there were surveillance cameras in the room, so they drugged Mary Congreve's food while she was sleeping.
This investigation actually led Norton Herbert to find it.
The servant's face suddenly turned bad, and he hurriedly tried to crawl forward to beg for mercy: "Master, I really didn't do this voluntarily, and I don't want to harm the lady! Master!"
But she didn't have the chance to crawl forward to beg for mercy from Norton Herbert, because she was held back by the two men standing beside her, preventing her from going forward and getting in the way of her master.
"You said you didn't do it voluntarily. Then tell me, who ordered you to do it?" Norton Herbert wanted to lead her to continue to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes.
But the servant seemed to have thought of something and stopped talking, not saying who had instructed her to do so.
"No, no one instructed me to do it. I poisoned myself."
Is he treating everyone in the hall as fools? He just said that he did not do it voluntarily and did not want to harm the lady, but now he changes his words and says that no one instructed him to do so and that he was the one who poisoned her. How is this possible?
"Oh? No one instructed you?" Norton Herbert asked in a depressed tone, "This poison is not simple. It was developed by a hidden family and it hasn't even leaked out yet. How did you, a little maid, get it?"
The maid was a little scared and didn't say anything.
"Also, since you don't want to speak, I have plenty of ways to make you speak. That way, it will be much more painful than death. Do you want to know?" Although Norton Herbert had a smile on his lips, there was no smile in his eyes, which made people shudder.
"I...I..." The maid stuttered a little, and finally seemed to have made up her mind: "Master, I really don't want to harm the lady. Someone forced me to do it. She said that if I didn't do it, my family would be in trouble."
