Dr. Zhong wanted to step forward to comfort Cretia, but he saw Cretia holding Vestri's head with tears in his eyes. He didn't know what to say for a moment. [Full text reading] shouda8 In this chapter, after priest Dermot finished his prayer, he ordered several church servants to carry Westri's body back to the church for a memorial ceremony, and asked Zhong Xiaoying to accompany Credia.
"Priest Dermot, are you okay?" Zhong Xiaoying couldn't help but feel strange when she saw that the murderer also stabbed the priest, but he was fine.
"God bless..." The priest took out a small scripture he carried with him from his arms, and poked a deep hole in the scripture with his knife. However, the sutra is very thick and bound with sheepskin, which effectively resists this sting.
The priest was still a little shaken, and his words were a little garbled, not as smooth as when he chanted sutras. Xu Xu knew that there would be no useful questions for a while, so his caregiver escorted him back to the church first.
"Set a sentry post at the door of the church." Quan ordered the director of the police station, "Send a special person to protect Huygens 24 hours a day! Tell him not to leave the business building these days."
His face was livid, and the situation was a bit big. He put on his gloves and silently explored the scene. The dagger used to assassinate Vestry was thrown on the ground. This is the standard dagger given to sailors by the Navy╠╠It is actually a sailor's knife.
This dagger is covered in blood. The murderer immediately dropped the knife and fled after stabbing the priest. Xu Li took out a brown paper bag containing evidence and carefully put the dagger away.
In addition, there were no valuable clues left at the scene, and it was impossible to protect the scene well in the chaos after the assassination.
Xu Xu returned to the office and saw Wei Bachi, Zhong Lishi and several other elders arriving. Wei Bachi has been socializing with Huygens these days╠╠Huygens did not come to the Far East to "increase knowledge", he came to the Far East with a clear purpose.
Although Wei Bachi did not know his specific purpose, there is no doubt that the purpose of Huygens's trip to East Asia was to collect specific intelligence about East Asia. After he arrived in Kaohsiung, he did not miss any opportunity to talk to the elders. Although His poor average level had to rely on translators, but the overall impression given to Wei Bachi was that Huygens was a person with a strong thirst for knowledge╠╠He was interested in everything. I am willing to communicate with the elders about anything. Even in Dr. Chung
Of course, diplomats have naturally been responsible for the government's overseas eyes and ears from the day they were born, and Wei Bachi is not taboo about this. He even felt that this was a good opportunity - to fully demonstrate his strength to the Dutch, to open up more trade opportunities, and to avoid their wild imagination.
As soon as Wei Bachi entered the door, he was so angry that he trembled with anger. He slapped the table and asked for permission: "Which bastard from the army did this? Take him out and shoot him!"
Quan Quan shook his head and said, "The murderer is pretending!"
"What?!"
Xu Li introduced him to the two cases that happened yesterday and today.
Wei Bachi was furious and slammed the table again: "What do you do to eat! Why don't you send someone to protect the foreign guests? Just let a little kid lead them all over the place!"
Xu Xu was already worried, but when Wei Bachi roared, he couldn't help but get angry. He responded without hesitation: "Mr. Wei, please pay attention to your attitude! I am not the director of the Kaohsiung Police Station, I am under the command of the Navy. And the leader of the Foreign Intelligence Service, responsible for the intelligence work of Operation Motive. Local security and protection is your scope of responsibility."
Wei Bachi was choked and speechless after being hit by him. His face turned as red as a fighting cock. Dr. Zhong quickly came out to smooth things over.
"Don't be angry, everyone. The matter has already happened. We can't make up for it by arguing here. Let's think about how to find out about it first."
Kaohsiung's mistake this time was obvious: no guards were sent to a more important figure like Westley. Both Dr. Zhong and Wei Bachi focused their attention on Huygens and did not pay much attention to the personal safety of the Dutch teenagers, nor did they expect that someone would specifically target them.
This matter is not a big deal. Not too small. Although the Dutch were not to be feared, the task given to Wei Bachi by the Senate was not to fight the Dutch. It would be of absolutely no benefit to oneself if something really happened.
Wei Bachi was like a deflated rubber ball. He unbuttoned his collar and sat down on the sofa: "You guys tell me what to do!" He suddenly remembered something: "In a few days, the officers will send a ship. Pick them up, and now not a single living person is gone!" He said, shaking his head and sighing.
Dr. Zhong thought that Bangkut had worked so hard to bring the child to East Asia to be vaccinated with cowpox, hoping that he would grow up safely, but he did not expect that he would die like this╠╠The trip to Kaohsiung turned out to be his life-threatening talisman. There is really a sense of emptiness in the unpredictable world. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"If Boncourt were to know that his son was killed, and that he was beaten to death by 'senator soldiers'... he would have to risk his life with us!" Wei Bachi shook his head and sighed repeatedly.
Boncourt was a senior merchant of the East India Company and was an equal figure to the Governor in Batavia. No matter how much we say this, it will not promote cooperation and enhance friendship between the two parties.
"The feelings of the Dutch are nothing. If you don't accept it, I'll beat you!" Fang Jinghan said nonchalantly, "Just lock down the little foreign horse and use it to kill him." It's a pity that you can cut the Chun Wan Geng. lazy?
"Isn't this fulfilling the enemy's wish?" Wei Bachi said, "People really want us to fight with the Dutch." He waved his arms and said excitedly: "Of course we are not afraid of the Dutch, but now is not the time to deal with them. ; Furthermore, I can’t swallow this feeling that I have to follow people’s routines honestly after being tricked like this!”
Dr. Zhong said: "There is a conspiracy in this matter!"
"It's probably Zheng Zhilong who did it," Xu said. This idea appeared as soon as he arrived at the murder scene╠╠The purpose of the entire case was too strong. It smells of frame-up from beginning to end.
According to the principle of reasoning: whoever is the biggest beneficiary of the case will be the biggest suspect. Zheng Zhilong is obviously the biggest suspect.
"The Dutch should not be so easily fooled. The methods in this case are too low-level." Wei Bachi said, "The purpose is obvious."
"Wrong, this method is very advanced." Xu Xu said, "People all over the street saw it. It was one of our sailors who killed someone, and this sailor was drunk╠╠In other words, he looked drunk .”
In other words, the frame-up was in the form of "passion killing" rather than "deliberate murder." It would be unreasonable to say that the Senate deliberately murdered Westley, but it would be completely reasonable for a drunken sailor to kill someone in the street.
From a liability perspective, Westry was killed by a Senate official on Senate territory. This is a well-known "fact" at the moment, and at least several people have witnessed this "fact".
If the Senate wants to clear its name, it must try to solve the case and find the real culprit. It must also have evidence.
With the management level of pirate gangs and even the government in this era, it is impossible to explain what is really going on. Even the British Navy in the 19th century may not have been able to guard against this trick.
Xu Xu said regretfully: "It's a pity that the murderer is already dead!"
Wei Bachi jumped up again and complained to Zhong Lishi: "Dr. Zhong, why are you teaching your goddaughter to play with a gun? This will kill the murderer with one shot! Aren't you killing people and silencing them for the enemy?"
"Xiaoying is not afraid that he will run away..." Zhong Lishi was a little at a loss for words╠╠I really can't praise Xiaoying enough for this matter. But at that time, there was really no good way to do it under the urgent situation. Their communication methods were still very backward, and they could not notify the patrol boats at sea as soon as possible.
Of course, if Xiaoying hadn't fired this shot, the murderer might have escaped unscathed. If he actually ran away, it would be the same thing to them as being shot dead.
"I think you are a little overindulged in your goddaughter." Wei Bachi said angrily and fanned, "She must be educated well!"
Zhong Lishi was full of slander against Wei Bachi, but he really couldn't argue with this matter.
The phone in the room suddenly rang. Quan Quan quickly picked up the call. The call was from Ren. The murderer's body had been transported to the health center. Ren planned to start the autopsy in an hour and asked Li Quan and others if they wanted to. Go check it out.
"I'll go right away!" Xuancheng said.
Dr. Zhong said: "I'll go too!"
Wei Bachi shook his head: "I won't go. I'm going to take care of the aftermath first, and then explain it to Huygens." He shook his head vigorously, "We will discuss how to deal with this matter later. "
Fang Jinghan had no interest in dissecting cadavers. Liu Zheng had recently found a guide on the commercial street and was about to go on a field inspection. He asked Fang Jinghan to discuss the inspection plan first, and then he left.
Zhong Lishi returned to the customs residence and prepared to pack the necessary equipment. As soon as I opened the door, I saw Zhong Xiaorou holding the tomb of the tomb Jiaojie Sixi and waving his hands to the ground.
"What are you doing?"
"It's all my daughter's fault. She accidentally shot and killed the murderer." Zhong Xiaoying cried and said, "Please forgive me, father."
"Don't cry, get up." Zhong Lishi waved his hands, "How do you know the murderer is dead?"
"My daughter just sent Cretia back to the store. When she came out, she saw Uncle Ren leading people to collect the murderer's body. He said that my daughter's shot was to help the bad guy 'kill and silence'. My daughter knew she was wrong. , please forgive me, father!" She felt regretful and sad at the same time, and couldn't help but fall on the ground and cry bitterly as she spoke.
