„A registered letter has just treasure come to you, there.“ Sabrina, a really lovely woman entered the office of her husband and waved a letter in her hand.
„Who does send me a registered letter Kenny looked up from his work on and in the direction of his wife?“? „A certain Steward Blackmoor, a notary. She read from the envelope from Aberdeen „.
„And what he wants of me I finally do not know him. Can't introduce to me what he wants of me either. And calculated a notary. This can mean nothing good. Open him.“
With these words Sabrina opened the change. She had read the first sentences, she sat down on the first finding cash chair hardly, that. She saw more fully Kenny's horror, however, could recognize that the message could not be bad by her face, because his wife gave him a smile.
He grumbled it to full curiosity something: „Say now what is in it there?“
„Do you know a certain Roul Windscale?“ A little fresh air wafted itself you with the letter while she was looking at it questioningly.
It feverishly wondered whether it had belonged to these names before „Roul“. And while it was looking about in its brain meanders, it recited this name in front of itself again and again. „Roul...Roul Windscale? Never heard. Who shall be this, then?“ He almost burst with curiosity. He cracked of his office chair and tore the letter for it from his hand. His curiosity and interest were more greatly as be behave.
He quietly read the letter. He shouted the heel almost really out of himself which was the most interesting as actual, though, „ I inform you that you are the only heir of Roul Windscale legacy. For the further clarification of the facts I ask you to call after a previous telephonic arrangement in my chambers. With best regards and so on and so on.“
Kenny's breath went faster than usual by reading particularly fast.
„I have inherited something I do not even know of
somebody. How the world is shifted anyway.“ He put on almost an Indian dance with joy.
„Kenny.“
His wife tried to stop him.
„Kenny.“ Did she get a little louder? But not her words still heard be auditory passage.
„Kenny!“ yelled at her him loud. He was calming down again only now.
„You want what my treasure, then? Kenny kidded around approximately a cigarette?“ because of joy around. It was not clear for him why he behaved like a crazy one but since he had never inherited something, this was already joy enough even if it should not be too much.
„What is it said in the letter you know this, do I not believe your uncle really?“ She looked at him astonishedly. She had never experienced him so much.
„I have never heard from this uncle. This means
just waits. My father had told me once that he has a brother. He did not know where this one lived, though and he also did not have contact to him. You had parted in the quarrel because of a small thing once. Why did he not even know more? However, all this is already what, too, I know about his brother. He had mentioned not even his name to me ..“ His thoughts of taking without the view of the letter sought in the past.
„Will you call?“ Quietly Sabrina enquired with Kenny and put her arm around his hips.
Your looks met. „Yes sure. It is clear to me that much does not jump at this thing but we have a sound reason to go on holiday a couple of days even if. I think this is good for us both. Or not?“
Sabrina only looked Kenny into the eyes and nodded. She had asked him to go again on holiday already since long, since he was put under stress so in a frightening way lately. That he had a reason to relax a couple of days and she was pleased with it now, however, not that his uncle had died. This was important to her.
Kenny who also promptly reported with a deep voice at the end of the other side did not think over for a long time and took the telephone receiver, chose the number of the notary: „Notary's office Blackwood!“
Kenny reported with his name and the request why he called. He made an appointment and the conversation was already ended with that, too.
You had arranged an appointment with him in the chambers for the next Monday at four p.m. This still gave Kenny the possibility of finishing work differently before so anyway he he had promised his wife, holiday wanted to take himself a week.
The remaining week flew like a nozzle jet there. Which really still wanted to take care of Kenny, the things the journey he did not make everyone but he otherwise was satisfied with themselves and his work so that nothing more was in the way to Aberdeen.
Both put themselves on on the way, on the Monday morning all too long flight did not come after one at there, took a room in a beautifully
situated pension, got into a restaurant and took the midday snack here. It was already nothing special, something else for somebody who always eats only plain fare, however.
The time today did not vanish like the last week. On the contrary. By the curiosity and nervousness the minutes like hours seemed to creep. But once an end has and the time had come so to come at the notary service everything.
They rang at its front door like the bricklayers on time. Kenny who did not belong just to the arms of the country either was astonished at the sight of the house to run this house, finally it was built in the ancient style and had to be got also so certainly was not cheap. Everything was here only of the fine and good. It looked beautiful but here one already had to have a differently filled purse to get this standard.
It did not last too long when the buzzer of the door moved. The door burst by itself without a further assistance. Kenny and his wife entered the splendid hall. At the end of the hall stairs introduced themselves up, one approached them
on this turned grey a little stretching sir, the hand in front of themselves here, contrary to.
„Assume I Mr and Mrs Windscale?“ His grin in the face already seemed exaggeratedly as nice as pie. Kenny did not like such people who carried around their exaggerated kindness in the face. The natural was kinder in him. But he made a good mine the bad game and grinned also about the measures.
Kenny ran towards the gentleman and without losing a word, he nodded only agreing while he was shaking hands with the host, so that this grasped her like a dirty rag. There is nothing more abominable but to get a feeble handshake. Something Kenny let usually turn round on the sales was this feeble welcoming not wanting to touch almost. But Kenny knew he had something to expect here, not much but he also wanted to listen already to what the notary had to say if.
„Please, they follow me up to my office.“ The sir was more than curt. But the Windcales imagined, what it shall follow, us the sir. That both agreed what concerned the sir showed in the looks which threw them to themselves. Sabrina twisted really
the face when she followed the master. She liked the stuck-up to-do of the sir just as little like her husband.
They took a seat three after Mr Blackwood had them offered a seats. „I would not like to talk around this for a long time but come to the essential one at once. Your Uncle, Roul Windscale, died last week. To what I think this is doing nothing to the thing at the moment.“ He stretched the sentences so as if he wanted to maltreat time.
„Why this adds nothing to the thing Kenny, however, wanted to know this more exactly?“.
„Now yes. If they insist on it. Your Uncle has been killed,...through something“ He broke off, looked for the correct words?
„Does this have to be said so difficult? „ or they prefer to say nothing? Kenny was a little indignant. His first impression of the notary, splint to confirm himself as right. Kenny would best of all have recited his thoughts in front of himself loudly, but his education refused for him to tolerate this.
„I difficult would not say but he has been murdered. No-one can say this of whom, why. The police stand with a puzzle. Been killed primarily because of the way to these he has, more questions appear as answers.“ He turned the ballpoint pen certainly between his fingers already for the one hundredth time. He showed how nervous he was.
„What they mean“? Kenny was curious and the hints somehow made him nervously with the way. Sweat penetrated from his pores.
„Well. How shall I say this? I have not seen the body. So I only can tell them what I know from the police.“ The notary broke off in his story and saw in Kenny's eyes as if he wanted to make sure, whether some such information is not too hard for Kenny.
He continued his story after a while of the silence. He took deep breath deeply and worked his voice like before differently. „His body was carved up. It lay on the ground, its arms and legs were detached from the body. Even the head shall have been divided off cleanly and put to the trunk
correctly again. When one turned his body over they locked solid, the heart he got separated from behind. But why this everything is inexplicable.“
The out separate heart "lay" on its place? Kenny shook it at this thought, how its Uncle lay on the ground and all bodily members were separated from the trunk again, too.
"No. This is even more inexplicable than all other things. One still could indicate a ritual at the parts of the body divided off. But the missing heart rejects this theory again." The notary shook himself. Was to him horrified at this thought " but I think we should not talk far about it. Because I cannot give them more information." The notary took the files lying in front of themselves with that and opened them.
"I become in their presence, open the cover of the will now, the right will suit them if?" It looked deeply in Kenny's eyes. It could not withstand the look for a long time, though. Kenny agreed nodding, the notary turned his look on the envelope again hardly that.
