He told Wayne and others about the latest developments in the "Pig Man Case".
"There were certain problems with the direction of our investigation before. We just speculated that the pig man might be a magician with many evil deeds, and we have been trying to find commonalities among multiple cases that had almost no connection with each other... But in the end, there was no one at all. Think about the fact that the Pig Man is not a certain person, but a mask shared by those who want to cover up their crimes."
Chris looked a little shocked when he heard this.
But Difu probably knew it in advance and didn't show any surprise.
"How could it be?! This is too unbelievable...didn't anyone realize the problem? What about those who came forward to report the crime?" Chris couldn't help but ask.
The senior official smiled wryly.
"Several more suspicious suspects have been arrested, but there may be more unexposed criminals behind the scenes."
"Fortunately, Mr. Ecos is still pursuing this matter privately... Otherwise, the city guard, which has reorganized many personnel, would not be able to discover this doorway for a while." He said slightly happily.
At the mention of Echos, Chris suddenly cheered up.
"Is Lord Echos in the city guard now?" she asked curiously.
"Uh... not really."
After receiving a negative reply, Chris was slightly disappointed.
"How can there be a job with such loose requirements? Doesn't that mean you can fish if you want?" Wayne heard her dissatisfied thoughts.
Ignorant girl~ The person you want to see is sitting next to you, so you are not fishing.
Wayne changed the subject in a rather subtle mood.
"So, agreeing to the interview this time is just to send a signal to the outside world that the matter has been settled?" He filled in the unfinished subtext for the other party.
"Not bad." At this point, he looked a little confused.
He seemed to be hesitating whether he should speak so thoroughly to these outsiders.
But he soon made up his mind and explained simply: "Because we are currently unable to determine how many people can escape guilt through this, we have to release the news first to appease the people, so as to avoid panic in the capital... And those who want to People who want to use this to get away with it will realize after seeing the interview that their little tricks have been seen through."
"If a similar incident happens again, everyone will not think that there is really some kind of legendary monster, but will think of letting the city guard catch the prisoner as soon as possible."
Wayne couldn't agree with this statement.
It should be said that he didn't have much confidence in the City Guards in the first place, so he couldn't talk about disappointment.
But Chris frowned tightly.
But in the other person's territory, she didn't say anything disrespectful.
It wasn't until the Leaf Publishing House group left the City Guard headquarters building and on the carriage ride back that Chris couldn't help complaining: "He said a bunch of things that seemed very reasonable, but in fact he didn't mean to investigate them carefully. .”
"Of course we will still investigate..." Wayne lifted the corner of the car curtain and looked at the sky outside the window. "As he said just now, isn't there Echo? The criminal will always be caught."
"But...but we can't blame everything on Miss Echos alone."
After truly feeling how deceived these colleagues were, Chris began to feel some sympathy for Echos.
Realizing that she seemed to have a different impression of Echos, Wayne withdrew his gaze from the window.
There were only two of them in the carriage. The other employees of the publishing house were sitting in another carriage behind them, so there was no chance that outsiders could hear their conversation.
"He still tried to cover it up a little for his own people." Wayne said with a slight smile, "He said he didn't want to worry the people of the royal capital, but in fact he just wanted to take credit for it."
After a few glances at the interviews collected by Bato and the others, Wayne understood what those people were thinking.
Although Echos's contribution was mentioned, it was only mentioned in a few strokes, and the credit for this matter was also extended to the entire city guard.
Even Simon, who was basically not involved in this matter, was mentioned because of his status as acting commander. It seems as if it is because of his attention and leadership that such great progress can be achieved.
It is equivalent to saying that I have given them a wave of seniority in vain.
This left Wayne feeling a little speechless.
Although qualifications were of little significance to him, and it would be easier to lower his reputation a little, he still felt that those people were too careless in doing things.
It was probably the persona Aikos had always shown that caused them to misunderstand her.
I don’t even think of giving myself more mission funds. Is my credit so easy to take advantage of?
Here, Wayne was still thinking about how to vent his anger, but Chris just sighed quietly.
"...The city guard is like this, it's really worrying."
Wayne answered without paying much attention to this: "Well, what are you worried about?"
——The sky is falling because there is a tall person supporting it.
Take me for example.
"My wish in this life is to eat well and wait until death..." Chris placed her hands flat on the small table in the center of the carriage and rested her head on it.
The good shock-absorbing structure makes the carriage run very gently, so that it can easily make tired people feel sleepy.
She closed her eyes and whispered: "If these people are so messy, how can I still eat alone and wait to die with peace of mind?"
Wayne was silent for a moment.
Then he suddenly smiled and said: "We still have a long, long time to spend in this life. Do we really not think more about our wishes in life?"
Chrissy didn't open her eyes or give an answer.
…
"Wangdu Morning News" published an explosive special report.
With this as an introduction, everyone in the capital suddenly focused their attention back on the "Pig Man Case".
It is said that even His Majesty the King was shocked by the bloody truth hidden in the "Pig Man" legend, and ordered that the prisoners who had weaved such huge lies be hanged.
While the people were scolding those unscrupulous people, the reputation of the city guard also increased a lot.
"It seems that there are still people in the city guard who are doing practical things..." At the end of people's words, there will always be such exclamations.
"Yes, yes! I heard that after Lord Simon took over, he discovered something was wrong when looking through the files, so he sent Lord Echos, the most powerful person in the city guard, to investigate..."
It was passed on as if they all saw it with their own eyes.
In addition, there are also some "special" voices mixed in the rumors.
"——Lord Simon is much more powerful than Bulwer. Bulwer spent so long finding nothing, but as soon as Lord Simon took office, the case came to light."
