Chapter 419 Sultry and Sexy âJohnson!â
Alfred called the housekeeper Johnson in.
Johnson humbly asked. âSir, what can I do for you?â
âGo and call Cecelia. Thereâs something I want to tell her.â
After hearing this, Johnson suddenly raised his head, his gentle eyebrows gradually turned cold, and even his tone of voice changed.
âSir, have you forgotten your agreement with our master back then? If you break your promise and tell the truth, then donât blame me for being cruel.â
When Alfred heard what he said, he looked at Johnson in surprise. As if Alfred was remembering something, and asked in shock. âWait, what do you mean? Are youâ¦â
Before Alfred could ask any questions, Johnson stepped forward quickly, took out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and stabbed Alfredâs abdomen directly.
âUhâ¦â¦â
Alfred fell to the ground and stared at him, probably never dreaming that Johnson was the person sent from there.
After Johnson killed Alfred, he picked up the candlestick on the altar table and threw it towards the curtain beside the wall.
The candle lit the curtain, and the flames soon caused the fire in the wing room.
After glancing at the person lying on the ground in blood, Johnson quickly ran out of the wing room.
The fire in the wing of the main house was spreading. The servants passing by noticed the fire and began to exclaim. âHelp! Itâs on fire! Come and put out the fire!â
The sound alerted other servants. Everyone found that it was on fire in the wing room, and they all came to put out the fire with buckets.
Adamâs room was not too far from the wing room. When he heard somebody calling, he immediately picked up the fire extinguisher in the house and rushed out, running towards the wing room.
He bumped into Johnson on the way. They met each other on such occasions. Adam recognized Johnson. Adam asked. âJohnson, is there a fire in the main house?â
âYeah, Iâm looking for someone to put out the fire.â
Johnson lowered his head and replied.
âOkay, I will go there first.â
Adam ran to put out the fire and didnât notice anything unusual about Johnson.
At this time, Cecelia was not resting and was looking at the files on the computer.
Remington lay sideways on the bed, holding his forehead with one hand, staring at the busy woman, his deep and hot eyes trying to attract her attention.
âBaby, are you done yet? Iâm so coldâ¦come hereâ¦â
He unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his sexy chest. He was like a peacock with its tail spread.
âYeah!â
Cecelia couldnât work with a clear mind under the temptation of Remington.
Turning off the computer, Cecelia came to Remingtonâs side. She pressed her knuckles and said in a joking tone. âAre you cold? Do you want me to give you a good thump to get you warm up?â
âI donât want it! I just want you!â
The man waved his long arm and hugged her into his arms. Just as he was about to kiss her, there was a knock on the door.
Remington paused slightly and frowned in displeasure. Who the hell would come to their room at this time?
And then they heard Snowâs voice come from outside.
âCecelia, Somethingâs wrong! There seems to be a fire over there!â
When they heard about the fire, Cecelia and Remington rolled out of bed at the same time, opened the door, and saw Snow standing outside.
âWhereâs the fire?â
âIt seems to be over there at the main house!â
Shouting could be heard in the distance, and bright firelight could be seen from the main house. And then they immediately ran towards the main house.
Cecelia and the others ran to the wing room of the main house and saw many servants were too busy to put out the fire, they also saw Adam was putting out the fire too.
Remington immediately joined the fire-fighting team. Fortunately, the fire was discovered in time and it was quickly controlled.
After putting out the fire, Adam covered his mouth and nose with a towel, took a flashlight, and rushed in to find Alfred with another servant.
The smoke and dust in the room gradually dispersed, and Adam and the others found Alfred lying on the ground in the room.
But there was a knife stuck in the old manâs abdomen. It could be seen that Alfred was definitely not because he was suffocated and collapsed due to the fire.
âOh my god! Master Songo! He has been killed!â The servant screamed.
âCecelia! Come in and take a look!â
Hearing the shouts of Adam and the others, Cecelia and Remington ran into the wet wing room.
The flashlight illuminated the old man on the ground. The water stains on the ground were mixed with blood, and everyone was shocked.
âHow so?â
Cecelia also didnât expect that Alfred would be killed.
âHe still has breath!â
Adam touched his pulse and felt his weak pulse beating.
âCall the ambulance! Call the police!â
Cecelia said to Remington. While she saying so, Remington had already made the call.
She knelt down and called to the old man again. âAlfred! Alfred!â
After a while, Alfred finally woke up. Hearing Ceceliaâs voice, he opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak.
âAlfred, who did this?â
Cecelia moved as close to him as possible, trying to hear clearly.
Alfred struggled to open his mouth and spit out a few words. âJohâ¦Johnson.â
Cecelia heard it clearly. âJohnson? Did Johnson kill you? Why did he kill you?â
âYeâ¦â
After the old man said a word, his head tilted to one side weakly. Cecelia put her finger under his nose and found that he was completely out of breath.
âWhat did you say? Alfred, wake upâ¦what did you just sayâ¦â
Cecelia didnât quite understand the last word he said. Alfred passed away suddenly, leaving her with a big puzzle.
Cecelia heard Johnsonâs name, but what was the last word he said?
Alfred died, in an unexpected way.
Cecelia led everyone out of the crime scene and told everyone. âMaster Songo was killed! The fire may caused by the murder!â
âHe said Johnsonâs name when he was dying. Where is he now? Did any of you see him? We need to find out Johnson quickly! It is very likely that he killed Alfred!â
The servants were all in a panic, but they were all sure of one thing. No one had seen Johnson from just now.
âI bumped into him when I came here just now! Now that I think about it, he must have fled in fear of crime after killing Master Songo! Iâm going to chase him now!â
After Adam said that, he ran out to chase Johnson.
Cecelia and Remington stayed where they were until the police and ambulance personnel arrived.
Unfortunately, there was no need to rescue Alfred because he was already dead.
Mr. Boris led a team to the scene. After understanding the basic facts of the case, he began to investigate the scene.
The police investigated the scene and extracted fingerprints from the dagger on Alfredâs body. After a preliminary identification, the forensic doctor took the body back for further examination.
Because Alfred identified Johnson before his death, moreover, and Johnsonâs behavior of escaping after the incident, the police initially determined that he was the first suspected murderer and immediately launched a manhunt.
For Remington and Cecelia, their night was ruined, and started to analyze the case.
Thinking of Johnson, Remington thought that he was honest. But Remington couldnât understand why Jhonson would kill Alfred. âJohnson looks honest and loyal, why did he suddenly kill Alfred?â
âI donât know either!â Cecelia couldnât figure out the reason. âCould it be that Johnson saw the decline of the Songo family, so he wanted to take advantage of it?â
âBut after investigating the scene, we found that there was no valuables stolen.â
âYes, this matter is really strange. Only by catching Johnson can we find out the truth!â
Remington nodded and asked. âWhat did Alfred say to you before he died?â
