Chapter 22 - Manchester United vs. Arsenal

"I mean there was no argument!"

"I heard you. I asked you why you wanted to kill her?"

"I didn't want to kill her, are you an idiot?" Ander was furious.

Lin Hao stared at Lin Hao silently for a while, then smiled and asked, "Do you have a leukemia patient in your family?"

Ander remained frozen in the same posture he had just used to criticize Lin Hao.

He immediately realized, and just as he was about to return to normal, Lin Hao's next words came: "I've found a way to poison him!"

"First, let me explain my situation. I was innocently dragged into this conflict by accident. It wasn't you who gave me the sleeping pills, but the deceased An!"

"This matter is neither a big deal nor a small one. After something like this happened, no one will dare to admit it. The sleeping pills were ordered by An and administered by Hal!"

"But Hal probably couldn't move me by himself. I don't know who he moved with, but I guess it was a male companion!"

"I was moved to Ann's room, but Ann has probably forgotten about it!"

"As for An's movements, when she went to the party, she first tried to contact those big shots, but of course they wouldn't pay attention to her. So she turned to those who were less famous. Judging from the fact that she came to me, it must not have been very successful. In the end, I didn't agree to her request, and she seemed a bit embarrassed and angry!"

"She then continued searching for people and instructed Hal to administer sleeping pills. Note that it's highly likely she didn't instruct me. Of course, this is just speculation. If I were her, I would choose other players, since everyone on the field except me is a millionaire!"

"Something happened; there's a good chance we can extort some hush money!"

"But An became enraged and embarrassed, leading Hal to mistakenly believe that An harbored resentment towards me and was seeking revenge!"

"Hal found his male companion, Byron, and after the autopsy, the two had sex!"

"The two of them entered the room at 10:48 and came out at 11:00. I think you can understand what I'm trying to say!"

"After An came out, she found you again. You put a blindfold on An and, during the process, directly forced her to drink arsenic!"

"There were traces of an eye patch on the body!"

"You must have hidden the container of arsenic in a very secluded place in the hotel, but if you put in the effort, you can definitely find it!"

"It's not difficult to discover these things. A careful look at the autopsy report will show that he had relations with two people. Otherwise, there wouldn't be DNA and oil on rubber items. It doesn't make sense!"

"Your method wasn't very sophisticated either; it was somewhere between passion and hesitation. You must have decided to kill him a long time ago, but you hesitated to do it, so you kept the murder weapon hidden on your person!"

"I've finally reached my breaking point, because you've become a complete substitute!"

"I won't say these things, but they can find out anyway. It's just a matter of time. I don't have that much time. I have to get back to the competition. I need to solve the case as soon as possible. What I said has no supporting evidence, but if you follow what I say, they will definitely find evidence. Then I won't need you to confess!"

"It's definitely a fool's story!"

Lin Hao stood up and extended his hand to Sasha. Sasha was still in a daze, but when she came to her senses, she quickly reached out her hand. Clearly, she hadn't thought of this at all. The main misconception in this world is that once someone finds a partner, they won't find another.

More importantly, she always believed that Ander hadn't returned to the hotel. She got the news from other hotel staff, and since there were no surveillance cameras, she could only ask other people. But just because the other staff didn't see him, it didn't mean he really didn't go back. And just because he didn't go back didn't mean Ander couldn't go out.

Once you abandon the right path, it's difficult to go back, and you'll likely end up taking many detours.

Because of the significant public impact of this incident, and because Ander himself admitted to it, the process was swift, and Lin Hao's name once again appeared outside of sports news.

Once was a coincidence, but twice, this kid really has the ability. Of course, this ability is actually useless. Just like Lin Hao himself said, even if they take some detours, they will eventually find the right answer. After all, it's not a particularly clever thing.

The final findings were almost identical to Lin Hao's predictions.

It must be said that there is a certain thrill in helping to solve cases, but it's hard to say you like it. Who doesn't like being a detective? Finding out the murderer and leaving him nowhere to escape? But that means someone has been murdered.

Every detective hopes that there will never be a case to be afraid of in their lifetime.

When Ander confessed, Lin Hao was told he could leave. Before leaving, Sasha treated him to a meal to thank him and praised him to the skies.

When Lin Hao returned to the club, his teammates said that he seemed to be wasting his talents playing football.

He felt there was nothing wrong and decided to try to avoid going out.

Lin Hao still needs to rent a house; finally, he won't have to wander around anymore.

Their next match is another clash of titans, the 15th round of the Premier League, against Manchester United.

In the world of football, rivalries between teams mainly fall into two categories: one is geographical, such as Manchester City vs. Manchester United, Manchester United vs. Liverpool, Arsenal vs. Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool vs. Everton.

If both sides are quite strong and have their share of wins and losses, the enmity between them will only deepen.

Another possibility is that some teams have become stronger, creating competition and rivalry. For example, Chelsea and Arsenal don't actually have any deep-seated hatred. Wenger has left, and Mourinho has also left Chelsea, so there's basically nothing between them anymore.

Therefore, having many arch-rivals proves that a team's period of dominance is long. Look at Manchester United; they don't have much of a match with most of the strong teams.

According to statistics, the list of the most hated clubs is the top ten, which are the strongest teams, either historically strong or currently strong!

Even without any prior grudges, when two strong teams clash, their fans are bound to get excited. Some rude people might start by insulting or mocking the other side, which could easily escalate into a war of words.

This match will be held at Manchester United's home ground, the famous Old Trafford, the Theatre of Dreams.

The away team's bus arrived at the stadium first, where they changed their clothes. The home team arrived shortly after, greeted the fans outside the players' tunnel, and then entered the stadium.

Both teams warmed up, made final preparations afterward, and then waited in the player tunnel.

The players from both sides entered the field. Arsenal's starting lineup consisted of a three-defender formation, with Mustafi in the center, Holding on the left, and Papas on the right.

The two wing positions are: left wing - Kolasin; right wing - Bellerin.

In the middle are Guendouzi and Torreira, and further ahead are Iwobi and Ramsey.

At the very front, Pleasant Goat was positioned, while Lin Hao sat on the bench.

Manchester United side!
