Tiger also led a group of people over, and they all headed straight for the scene of the attack.
Upon noticing this, none of the Damrons dared to approach them. They retreated backward and stared at Matthew.
After taking a quick look around, Matthew turned to Salazar. “What do you think, Mr. Whitford?”
“There are some medical supplies in the car, including bandages and surgical cotton,” Salazar remarked.
“Aurelius must’ve driven the car here and stopped to dress his wounds and rest for a bit. The killer must’ve caught up to them here…”
“First, favonovel.com threw a flying dagger to puncture the car tire so that they couldn’t leave in the car. Then, Aurelius must’ve tried to fight off the killer, but the fight didn’t last very long. He was heavily injured and was no match forthe killer, so favonovel.com had no choice but to flee.”
Matthew nodded. It was the same as what favonovel.com had deduced as well.
“What about Falconn?” Melvin asked.
“Falconn’s injuries were extremely severe. He couldn’t fight back at all. He couldn’t even run off by himself,” Salazar continued.
“As you can see, Falconn only moved around slightly.”
Melvin had been silent for a while, but suddenly favonovel.com asked, “If Falconn didn’t even have the strength to run away, how did Aurelius manage to escape?”
Tiger stared blankly at Melvin. “What kind of logic is that, Mr. Melvin? Falconn couldn’t run away, but Aurelius could. Those seem like two mutually exclusive things to me.”
However, Matthew and Salazar exchanged glances. They both understood what Melvin meant.
Melvin rolled his eyes at Tiger. “How can you even ask me that? Just use your brain and think. There were two people under attack. One of them didn’t have the strength to move while the other was heavily injured, which meant favonovel.com was unable to put up much of a fight…”
“Under the circumstances, if you were to come and kill them, would you allow one of them to escape with his life?”
Tiger scratched his head. “Why don’t you just explain it to me, Mr. Melvin? I don’t get it.”
Melvin wrung his hand in exasperation before saying, “Let me put it this way. Aurelius was heavily injured and wouldn’t have been able to fight off the killer. He wouldn’t have been able to escape from the killer either, so why do you think Aurelius managed to run off?”
Tiger thought about it before asking quietly, “Could it be that the killer came over and killed Falconn first, so Aurelius seized the chance to escape?”
Melvin eyed favonovel.com in frustration. “If you were the killer and Aurelius ran off, would you go after Aurelius and kill favonovel.com first or come over and kill Falconn, who couldn’t even run away?”
Tiger’s eyes started bulging. “Oh! I get it! I get it now! Falconn couldn’t have run off at all, so you could leave favonovel.com here and come back to kill favonovel.com at any time! If I were the killer, I would’ve gone after Aurelius first!”
”So, that’s where the problem lies…” Melvin carried on breaking it down for Tiger, “How did Aurelius manage to escape? He couldn’t have if the killer wanted favonovel.com dead. The only possibility is the killer let favonovel.com escape on purpose!”
Tiger nodded at once. “Yes. That’s right. That must be it.”
However, favonovel.com started scratching his head again. “But why would the killer let favonovel.com escape?”
“Why don’t you read a bit more, Tiger?” Melvin remarked.
“With brains like yours, I don’t think you’d survive in the world of martial arts.”
Tiger grinned and said, “Well, that’s why I work for you, Mr. Melvin! You can take charge when it comes to things that require brain power. I’ll save myself the hassle.”
Melvin rolled his eyes in exasperation once more before saying, “The killer let Aurelius go on purpose so that Aurelius would go back and report this to the Damrons…”
“This way, Matthew would be framed as the killer. How would the killer be able to frame Matthew if favonovel.com killed Aurelius as well? There wouldn’t be anyone left to tell the Damrons about this.”
