Why？What's wrong？
'I don't know．Your mother wasn't ill．I saw her on Thursday and she was very well．Why did she die？I don' t understand．I want to find out．'
'Your mother took sleeping tablets，'Dr Pratt said．'Did you know？On Thursday she had a new bottle of tablets，but I can't find it here in her room．'
'I didn't know，'Roger said．'Very well．Let's go down-stairs and you can phone the police．'
4 Chapter
The police arrived very quickly．He was a big man in an old black suit and a black hat and coat．He wore a coat because he always felt cold．
'Good morning．I am Detective Inspector Walsh. 'Last night someone put sleeping tablets in Mrs Clarkson's hot milk．We are going to question everybody，and we need a room，please．'
Roger stood up．'I'm Roger Clarkson．You can have my father's old office．Come with me，it's along here，'
Jackie came in and sat down．She looked down at her hands and said nothing．
'We found the empty bottle of your mother's sleeping tablets in Diane's room，'the Inspector said suddenly．Then he waited．Jackie's face did not change and she said nothing．
'Tell me，did your mother get her tablets from the shop in the village？'
'Yes．My mother usually took a sleeping tablet every night so she needed a lot of tablets．Sometimes she got them from the shop，sometimes I did．
'I see．Your mother wanted to stay in this house．How about you？Did you want to move？'
Jackie looked up for a minute and then down at her hands a－gain．'This is Mother's house．I loved my mother．She was good to me．'
'Did you see your mother in her room last night？'
'Yes，everyone did．Diane made hot milk and took it to Mother．She usually drank a cup of hot milk before she slept．'

'What time was this？'
'I don't remember．About midnight，I think．'
'And the cup of hot milk？'
'It was on the table by her bed．'
'Did you need your mother's money？'
'No，Inspector．Money is not important to me．There are more important things，'Jackie said quietly．Don't forget Peter Hobbs．He lost his job because of my mother．He wanted to kill her，you know．And what about Diane？You found the empty bottle in her bag．
Inspector Walsh listened carefully．'We're going to question everyone，Miss Clarkson．' ‘Now I want to talk to Roger.’
Now，Mr Clarkson．
Tell me about your job，Mr Clarkson．Your mother is dead and now you're rich．Do you need money？'
Roger's face was suddenly afraid．'What are you saying？I didn't kill my mother．I need money，that's true．A friend and I want to build ten houses here，in this garden．We can get a lot of money for them．So．I wanted Mother to sell this house．she said no．She loved the house and didn't want to sell it．
Inspector Walsh watched Roger for a minute．'I see．We found the empty bottle of sleeping tablets，Mr Clarkson，in Diane's room．'
Roger's face did not change．'Oh？Someone put them there．Diane did not kill上一页 [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] 下一页
