Chapter 25 Eat Melon
Li Qing was sitting in the study when he suddenly heard arguing coming from the corridor.
"This is an atrocity! You can't imprison us!"
"He's right." This sentence was said in both male and female voices, making it sound a bit chaotic.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please return to the study. Everything will be explained to you."
"You too, Mr. Bodie."
Then came the sound of dogs barking.
The butler is a big problem; he guides all the activities and is extremely familiar with the manor.
Li Qing entered the study and saw that Scarlett and the other six were sitting on the sofa. He also sat on a chair near the door with armrests, which was quite comfortable.
The six people in the room all looked uneasy and their expressions were unnatural.
At this moment, the butler led Bodie back to the study.
"Hey! What's wrong with you, sitting in my seat again!" Bodie said angrily, looking at Li Qing sitting in his chair.
"What, your seat? Is your name on the chair? Hmm?" Li Qing stood up, looking down at Bodi, his tall figure quite imposing.
Bodie didn't dare to make a sound, and stood silently to the side, looking at the difference in their sizes.
Scarlett looked at Li Qing with curiosity, sizing him up from head to toe, seeing how imposing he was.
The butler dared not say anything, fearing that Li Qing would disrupt his plans.
At this moment, a maid came into the study carrying a tray of wine, but few people drank it.
The butler's gaze swept over the group, stopping on Li Qing. After a moment's hesitation, he spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, you all have one thing in common: you've all been blackmailed."
“I wasn’t blackmailed!” Li Qing interjected.
The butler ignored Li Qing, took a deep breath, and continued, "For a long time, you've been paying those who threatened to expose you, whether you could afford it or not, but nobody knows who's threatening you, right?"
"How do you know so much? Are you threatening them?" Li Qing interjected again.
Upon hearing Li Qing's words, the butler panicked for a moment, but quickly regained his composure and said, "Of course not! I am also a victim. To be precise, my wife was a victim. She lost her life because she was threatened. I invited everyone here to expose the identity of the person who threatened you!"
"Oh? Then who are you calling a threat to them?"
"It's Bodie, he's the one who threatened you!" The Champion Plan was disrupted, and Bodie's identity was revealed prematurely.
When Bodie heard the butler call him a threat, he wasn't flustered at all, even though everyone present was his enemy. Was his composure due to some trump card or another reason?
The other six were less composed. The colonel stood up, intending to attack Bodie, but Bodie stepped on his toe and gouged out his eyes, causing him to fall to the ground. Bodie was about to kick him a few more times when Mr. Green and Professor Plum pulled him away.
Looking at the colonel lying on the ground, Li Qing wondered if he was really a colonel. His skills were so poor that he was taken down by someone who was physically weaker than him.
Mrs. White looked at Bodie, who was being held up by the two men, and kicked him between the legs.
Oh!
Bodie screamed in agony, his eyes wide as he knelt on the ground.
Looking at the group who had been led astray by the butler, Li Qing feigned seriousness and said in a deep voice, "How could Bodie be someone who threatens you! Wouldn't it be like a lamb entering a tiger's den for him to die if he came alone? If you were the ones threatening others, would you invite your enemy to your door? Wouldn't that expose yourself? It would put you in danger. No one would be that stupid!"
"Tell me how you were threatened. Having each other's weaknesses will make it easier for you to get along."
"And what about you? Why should we tell you? Does this concern you?" Mrs. White looked at Li Qing and questioned him.
"How could it not have anything to do with me? I'm helping you find the truth! You're all suspicious of each other, so having one more person listen won't make a difference. Why don't I help you analyze it?"
“That makes sense,” said the colonel who was lying on the ground.
Good heavens, he actually believed such a reason? What an incompetent colonel. I don't even believe what I'm saying myself. Li Qing was speechless at this colonel, wondering how he even became a colonel.
That's fine, I don't need to find any more reasons.
"Thank you for your trust, Colonel," Li Qing said, expressing his gratitude to the colonel.
The butler was also baffled, wondering what this man was doing. He turned to the others and said, "Since we're all in the same boat now, it won't hurt for me to reveal some details. Besides, I've been assigned to do so. Thank you, Yvette."
Yvette's eyes darted around, as if she understood something, and she turned and walked out of the study.
"Don't you think you should give us some face?" Mrs. White seemed reluctant to let others know her secret.
But people are just naturally gossipy. The more you try to hide something from others, the more interested they become.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? If you're embarrassed, then I'll go first," Scarlett said nonchalantly.
"I run a hotel and telephone service, and offer young ladies to gentlemen."
Mrs. Peacock looked at Scarlett with disdain, seemingly looking down on her for doing this kind of business.
Professor Plum, intrigued by Scarlett's words, walked up to her, took a puff of his pipe, pulled a small notebook from his suit pocket, and asked, "What's your phone number?"
It's clear they plan to patronize Scarlett's business in the future.
Seeing this, Li Qing burst out laughing. He never expected that this professor, who looked so respectable, was actually a lecher.
"What's up! Want to patronize Scarlett's business? You're such a nice guy!"
Scarlett leaned back on the table, rolled her eyes dramatically, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and looked incredibly alluring, exuding a wicked charm.
The butler continued, "Professor Plum, you used to be a professor of psychiatry, helping paranoids and murderers suffering from severe delusions."
“That’s right, but I work for the United Nations,” Professor Plum objected.
"Nothing's different. But you're not very familiar with pharmaceuticals, and your license was revoked, right? Because of a relationship with a patient, is that right?"
Professor Plum fell silent.
It seems that Professor Plum is indeed a lecherous devil, unable to control his lower body, and even lost his job because of it.
Such things are quite common. Li Qing in the main world has seen many similar news reports. One should control one's lower body!
“Disgusting!” Mrs. Peacock’s eyes were filled with disgust.
But retribution came quickly.
"Mrs. Peacock, what do you think of bribing your congressman husband to vote for a designated candidate?"
“My husband was just seeking normal advice, what’s wrong with that?” Mrs. Peacock retorted stubbornly.
“If it’s done publicly, then it’s fine, but what if the payment method is to swipe a dollar under the door of the men’s restroom?” The butler wasn’t going to give Mrs. Peacock any face and continued to press his advantage.
How would you describe this kind of transaction?
“I have to say it’s disgusting,” Scarlett delivered a devastating blow to Mrs. Peacock.
Li Qing thought to himself that women are so petty.
Mrs. Peacock turned pale and her self-esteem was severely hurt by the two men's sharp words.
