When Cyrus reported his investigation results to Jiguo Yuanyi, Yixiao fell into silence completely. His eyes that were originally closed now tried to open them, revealing the whites of his eyes.
Obviously, Yixiao did not expect that the Navy's investigation results would be like this.
When he had a conflict with that noble, there were definitely many witnesses. He was so domineering that it was impossible to even perceive such a thing wrong.
But the result of Cyrus' report at this time was actually a unanimous accusation of murder. This kind of thing is simply unacceptable with a smile.
At first, Yixiao thought the navy was up to something. After all, he had been wandering around for so many years and had seen a lot of corrupted navy.
However, when Ji Guoyuan said those words out loud, he quickly calmed down with a smile, closed his eyes, remained silent, and waited for the navy's decision.
"Dudu." Ji Guoyuan put his left hand on the table and tapped it lightly. Although he had some guesses, he still couldn't rely on his own trust to determine the nature of the incident.
Many times, there is no way to do things based on pure trust.
Only through just means can the result be guaranteed to be just with a high probability.
"Cyrus, what do you think about this matter? Did anything strange happen during the investigation?"
Ji Guoyuan pointed at the stool beside the table, motioning for Cyrus to sit down and talk.
However, after looking at and smiling, Cyrus did not choose to sit down. Instead, he saluted Jiguo Yuanyi and gave a formal report:
"Report!"
"I think there's something fishy about this!"
"During the investigation, I asked many people. Although they all said that he suddenly killed Viscount Wembley, there is one thing that I am very concerned about."
"Those are the people I investigated. Their words are basically the same."
"Normally, I can understand that ordinary people would remain silent or give incoherent narrations after experiencing such a horrific incident, but I think there is something wrong with everyone being able to calmly say the same thing!"
"And when I was investigating, the Cuiluan Principality was also sending people to investigate this matter."
"I left later than the people from Cuiluan Principality!"
Cyrus reported, describing some of the situations that he thought were problematic. He did not add any exaggeration, did not blindly believe that what the people said was absolutely correct, and did not point the finger directly at the smile that hurt him in the previous battle.
"Is this so"
"I have to say that the Cuiluan Principality is very efficient."
“So many things can be done in such a short period of time, and the administrative efficiency is very good.”
Cyrus heard the sarcasm in Jiguoyuanyi's tone, but the Cuiluan Principality is a member of the World Government. If Jiguoyuanyi's words were spread, the impact would be somewhat bad, and he was laughing in front of everyone. In the face of this outsider, Cyrus made up for it:
"This is also normal. Normally, the countries joining the world government are countries with certain strength."
“It is normal for a country like this to have somewhat high administrative efficiency.”
"And the one who got into trouble was Viscount Wembley of this country, who is a noble. I found out that Viscount Wembley is the younger brother of the Duchess."
Cyrus has indeed investigated a lot of things during these times. At least, he has a very clear understanding of Viscount Wembley's interpersonal relationships.
After finishing speaking, Cyrus continued to ask:
"Brigadier General Jiguo, what should we do now?"
"If we go by the testimony of witnesses, the criminal is already clear. Generally speaking, our navy is actually obliged to assist the participating countries in arresting criminals, not to mention that the criminals are still on our ship."
Things had reached this point, and Cyrus had no idea.
He clearly knew that there seemed to be a hidden agenda in this matter, but if the witnesses' confessions were consistent, it seemed that Yixiao was really being labeled as a criminal in this matter.
Although One Piece is a "superpower" world, the order of the world is difficult to restrain a super strong person like Yixiao.
But isn't the existence of their navy just to safeguard justice and restrict these "superpowers" from doing evil?
Moreover, Cyrus believed that if Ji Guoyuan took action, their navy would not necessarily lose to Yixiao.
"That's really difficult to handle."
"Mr. Yixiao, what is your opinion now?"
"Faced with such a thing, do you have any thoughts?!"
As soon as Ji Guoyuan stopped tapping on the table, he already made a decision in his heart, but he still moved his eyes to smile and asked with a smile.
"Hehehehe."
"Although I am not a well-known big shot, there is not a single lie in anything I have said!"
"Although I don't know why those people lied, but since the other party said so, let's assume that they are right."
"But. Navy."
"I won't let you go, because I really didn't lie."
As Yixiao spoke, he slowly stood up and seemed to be planning to leave, but Cyrus stopped directly in front of Yixiao and had no intention of letting him go.
Ji Guoyuan saw that Cyrus was about to fight with Yixiao again, so he waved his hand towards Cyrus and said, "Let him leave, it's okay."
"But, Mr. Yixiao, are you just going to leave with the name of 'murderer' on your back?"
"Even if you are framed, does it not matter?"
When Cyrus saw Yuanyi motioning to get out of the way, he smiled and was about to leave. However, when he reached the door, Jiguo Yuanyi suddenly asked.
"As you said, the people of Cuiluan Principality must have a very hard life!"
"Even if they are framed, I don't want to add any more burden to their lives."
"I can probably understand now what they think."
"If you bear the name of a murderer, you will bear it."
Saying that, he smiled and was about to leave.
But at this time, Jiguo Enichi also stood up, smiled at Yixiao and praised:
"Mr. Yixiao, you are really a gentle person."
"But if this world allows gentle people to endure more harm, wouldn't this world be very twisted?"
"As a navy, if we see this distorted world and don't consider changing it, wouldn't we, the navy, also become very distorted?"
"Mr. Yixiao, I am a navy man. I never shy away from talking to others. I stand behind justice."
"Some people may think that a navy like me is quite hypocritical, but this is what I plan to do."
"At the very least, let gentle people be treated gently by the world."
With that said, Ji Guoyuan turned to look at Cyrus and said:
"Cyrus, you said that the witnesses all have the same caliber, right?"
"In this case, let's go investigate the people investigating the case in Cuiluan Principality. By the way, go investigate the deeds of Viscount Wembley."
"I believe what Mr. Yixiao said. I think the guy who plans to kill someone just because he is blocked from the road must have a 'criminal record'!"
"You don't have to look for ordinary people. No matter where you are, there will be underground forces. Those people are better informed and dare to speak out!"
"Killing a person who has committed a heinous crime is also a good deed, isn't it?"
After saying that, Ji Guoyuan smiled at Yixiao.
After hearing this, Cyrus nodded slightly, glanced at him, smiled, and passed directly over the other party to leave the cabin first.
After Cyrus left, he slowly turned around with a smile, and a smile appeared on his originally bitter face:
"Brigadier General Ji Guoyuan."
"I really want to see what kind of person you are!"
After Yuanyi heard this, he slowly sat back in his seat and said to Yixiao:
"Mr. Yixiao, I think you should not be in a hurry and sit down for a while."
"Let's continue chatting."
