The outcome of this matter is very clear. Whether it is from the perspective of the formulation, implementation or rationality of the law, Fernand should not survive in this world. Execution in public is the best way to deal with it. But as for the method of execution, due to some confusing reasons, the choice fell into the hands of French Ambassador Edward.
According to normal people's thinking, it would be disgraceful for him to fight in the field. He should keep a low profile due to circumstances and reasons, and letting Fernan die silently in prison is a very low-key good thing.
But in fact, Edward didn't do that.
Perhaps he was inclined to keep things quiet at first because he had no idea how to deal with the various problems that would follow. But at least in terms of responsibility, Edward could push back and use Vienna's security forces to block the knife in the letter to Nazo.
And the clerk...if he dies, then he dies.
But the development of things was still beyond his control. When he was forced to tell the truth, helped Werther find the criminal basement and successfully captured Fernand, something changed in Edward's heart.
No matter how you look at it, he is the victim.
There is no use of force in the field battle, it is a trade route. Although it is indecent and disgraceful, it is not illegal. In the current tense situation between Prussia and Austria, the French ambassador's indecency can be completely ignored, and it even played a certain role in promoting the relationship between France and Austria.
Having dealt with foreign affairs all year round, Edward immediately saw a turn for the better.
As long as you omit some details when describing the process, and then focus on the final result, you can turn "going out in the field and being blamed for everything" into "going deep into the enemy's lair, bravely fighting the villains, and assisting the police to succeed." Take it”.
There are too many things to write home about. Neither Edward, nor Vienna, who needs to have a good relationship with the French, let go of this opportunity.
When the result is a foregone conclusion, the process becomes very important, and the way Fernand's execution is presented can reflect the magnitude of the matter from the side. The French, who yearn for gorgeous pomp and circumstance, are never willing to end the life of this "legendary" murderer with an extremely ordinary hanging.
Because only a different way of dying than others can reflect his merits.
Compared to the French, everyone else present did not care where Fernand died. If possible, it would be best to hang it at the door of the police station immediately. Even Fernand himself had lost the meaning of living and felt that it would be more honorable to die on the rope than to die in the interrogation room vomiting blood.
But just because of the slight change in Edward's mood, all the people present had different opinions.
First of all, it was Fernand himself. He had no fear of life and death, and he had no fear of Edward, so he hoped to end this fucker's life as soon as possible. But Werther, who wanted him back, hoped that he could live, at least until the day when the verdict was handed down.
This concerns the whole police department, so it is also the thought of the vast majority of police officers in the police department.
But in such an environment, Delio, who is also the police chief, is different from them. He has both the thoughts of an ordinary police officer and another thought of being jealous of Werther. It can be said that Fernand would be happy if he was alive, and he would be even happier if he died in the interrogation room now.
This contradiction is also reflected in several newspaper reporters.
They have access to first-hand information and have a rough understanding of the current relationship between France and Austria, and they also hope that France and Austria can unite. But for the sake of newspaper sales and their own status in the newspaper, they also hope to make a wave of big news.
What's the big news?
It was certainly not the hanging of condemned men, for this was nothing new in Vienna.
Big news must use an unexpected event to completely change the existing balance and make at least some people feel nervous. Fernand's sudden death can make some people very nervous. Even if Edward is really relieved in the end, their existence can solve the lack of information in an objective sense.
Adding some oil and vinegar is enough to keep the hot dish going.
Nowadays, the people who really stand with the death row prisoners in the interrogation room are ordinary people.
They are family members, friends or bystanders of the victim. They don't know that there are all these ideological struggles and little thoughts behind the whole thing. They just want to see Fernan commit suicide, and that's it (this chapter is not over yet!)
186. Save him in order to kill him better
It would be too cheap for him to die in the interrogation room like this.
The most representative ones are Yingenatz, Alina and Fatolad.
Standing next to the former is Claire, the boss of the two dead girls. Regardless of the relationship between the boss and the client, Alantha has also been "taken care of" by Ingenac; beside Elena is Albert's brother; Fatto Ladd appears here as a friend of the old marshal.
It is difficult to reconcile the differences between these people. If Kawei is not there, the final result will often be nothing.
[I feel that an open-air operation performed by Mr. Edouard, the French ambassador, is a sufficient reflection of his greatness. ]
The clerk told this sentence to Edward who was still working in the study: "This is what happened at the police station, because the guy really couldn't stand it, so Mr. Carvey made this suggestion after knowing your thoughts. "
Edward didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Of course he hopes to achieve his goal, but if Vienna really has something to hide, he will not be too difficult. After all, he also wanted to save face. If he really pushed the other party, God knows if he would reveal the embarrassing things he did on the Danube River.
Things that were originally simple have become a lot more complicated because of Edward, but as long as Edward lets go, things will still return to the simple track.
But now Kawei got involved and not only demolished this simple track, but also took Edward further and further in a more complicated direction.
"You're so thoughtful..." Edward put down his quill and frowned, "Surgery in the open air, and he's still a death row prisoner. It's a shame he thought of it!"
The clerk was stunned: "Then I will go back to the police station now and tell them to take them into custody first..."
"No, no, no, no, you misunderstood." Edward's face suddenly relaxed, and a smile slowly climbed to the corners of his mouth, "Dr. Carvey's idea is very interesting. Although I am the French ambassador, who can Can you resist the temptation of being the host of an open-air surgery?"
"You agreed?"
"certainly."
Edward stood up and stretched: "It's just that things have reached this point, and the initiative seems to be out of my control again. It still depends on whether Vienna is willing to do this. After all, it is an elegant city of music. "
"I heard that Dr. Kawei has gone to see the emperor overnight."
"Oh, it's really efficient." Edward took the red wine from the clerk's hand and took a sip of it. "I think this is interesting, what do you think?"
"This...I don't know either."
Edward looked back at him, and then sank his gaze into the dark night scene outside the window with little light: "Alas, my dear Plamon died in a foreign land like this. It's such a pity... I'll find someone tomorrow. , let’s put his remaining parts together and bury them on the banks of the Danube.”
"yes."
...
Kavi on the other side did not go to the Hofburg Palace as they thought, but continued to stay in the police station. The reason was still the same as when he met Justina before. Even if he went there, he would be placed in the reception room at the entrance and could not enter at all without Franz's permission.
So the burden of delivering the news fell on the shoulders of Fatorad and Ingnatz.
It was nearly 0 o'clock, and Franz didn't sleep either: "Why are you here? Is something wrong?"
"It's about the murderer." Fatolad said first. "His Majesty the King should have received the news. He has been caught and is currently being held in the Vienna Police Station."
"Well, I know." Franz looked down at the military deployment report and didn't pay too much attention to it. "The police station did a good job, and the results were very satisfying. After a few days, the director handed in his crime report. , I will decide the date of execution together with the French ambassador.”
Fatorad felt harsh hearing this.
No matter what, if an Austrian prisoner commits a capital crime, it is a domestic matter within the country. It is natural for the king to decide the method of execution. There is no need to discuss it with the ambassadors of other countries.
But seeing the way Franz was focusing on war preparations, Fatolad still endured it: "Your Majesty, there is a small problem, I'm afraid there is no time to wait (this chapter is not finished!)
186. Save him in order to kill him better
. "
"Huh? What's the problem?"
"That lunatic will not live long." Fatolad glanced at Ingenac beside him and continued, "If his luck is worse, he may die tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Ingenac also stepped forward and nodded: "I talked with Dr. Fatorad, and the surgeon made the same judgment."
"Almost dead?" Franz finally put down the report in his hand, "He is a brutal butcher who killed more than a dozen people. Why is he almost dead? Did the police department use too much punishment?"
"It was not caused by the police station, Your Majesty. He was already suffering from a serious illness."
Ingnatz had been Fernando's surgeon, so he naturally understood Fernando's physical condition better: "He has bladder stones, cancer, and bilateral breast hyperplasia. But the most serious thing is his digestive system. In our case, When he left the police station, he had vomited several mouthfuls of blood."
Franz felt strange: "It's just vomiting blood. Don't you usually bleed people?"
"This is different." Fatolad explained with a smile. "He bleeds because someone does it, but his body can bleed without us operating it. This means that the bleeding is uncontrolled. He was likely to bleed to death within a short period of time."
"Just like the seriously injured soldiers on the front line?"
"You could say the same thing."
Franz stood up, adjusted his military uniform and walked to them: "The time when it happened was too unlucky. It was related to Edward's attitude towards Austria. I need him to live, at least until Edward gives advice. So. Say, can this disease be cured?"
"I'm afraid not." Fatolad shook his head directly and said, "At least internal medicine can't. So far we don't have a hemostatic medicine that can be used. If there is one, it is an ointment for external application and is ineffective when taken internally."
"What about surgery?"
"As for surgery..." Yingenatz also shook his head, "Your Majesty, the current medical methods are ineffective for his disease."
"What should we do? Just watch him die in the police station? Or hang him tomorrow morning without asking Edward?" Franz's head couldn't stop hurting when he thought of Edward being kidnapped. "We must let him Edward handled the matter well enough for us to use it.”
"That's why we came." Yingnaz said the reason for their visit, "Kavi made an...e...a suggestion."
"Kavi?"
Franz had a very good impression of Kawei. At least the French Countess’ recent breast cancer surgery did not disappoint him: “Let’s listen to whatever suggestions he makes.”
"Actually, from a doctor's perspective, Fatorad and I both feel that this suggestion violates a doctor's responsibilities."
Ingnatz made a premise first, but Fatolad didn't take his words at all. He said with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense, I have no objection. On the contrary, whether it is from a doctor's point of view, or from the perspective of His Majesty the King and From the perspective of the French ambassador, I think this suggestion is very good."
"Surgery is not a performance! It is not something a layman can use to show off!"
He spoke the second half of the sentence very softly, and because he didn't open his mouth, he even seemed to be gritting his teeth. But Fatorad didn't care about this and said to Franz: "Dr. Carvey suggested replacing the death penalty with an operation with an almost 100% mortality rate, and let Ambassador Edward be the host."
Even Franz, who was used to seeing saucy operations, was surprised. He had never thought of such a method: "Open-air surgery?"
"Yes, it's just like the street autopsies back then." Fatolad said, "You should have noticed that this is a win-win-win-win-win situation, oh no, maybe it's a good idea to win-win-win situation four times."
Franz did react quickly, realizing that Edward would never waste this opportunity.
As long as Edward agrees, he, as the master of Austria, will naturally not object.
Just passing Edward's level is already a good suggestion. In addition, income and the trust of the onlookers in the country's efficiency can also be thought of.
"Four wins? Franco-Austrian relations, money, credibility, and one win?"
"Has Your Majesty forgotten the old marshal?" Fatorad said, "Maybe this treatment will make the old marshal change his mind. (This chapter is not over yet!)
186. Save him in order to kill him better
Yes, that is his biological son after all. "
"It makes sense."
Franz was very satisfied with this suggestion: "You can decide the time and place. Once you decide, just go ahead and do it. I will write a letter to the mayor explaining the stakes involved."
"The location is being considered in some famous squares, but due to the paving of the surgical site, we need your word of mouth."
"Oral message?"
"Yes, in order to keep Fernan alive until that time, we need to do our best to save his life. For this, we will even use a lot of medical resources. This is not in line with the sentence he deserves, so we need your oral instructions." Fattola De quoted what Kawei had just said, "Because by saving him, we can kill him better."
