Coughing twice, Kozo Okamoto continued: "Today's world is known as a global village, with the help of advanced communication technology and various means of transportation, people from various countries, regions and nationalities are so closely connected, so the outbreak of the plague in Southeast Asia has become a common threat to all mankind. Let us join hands in the days to come and usher in a new era of prosperity in the Asia-Pacific region......"

These words once again aroused warm applause at the scene, and everyone applauded there with sincere joy.

Two beautiful girls walked up to the stage, put a beautiful garland on Kozo Okamoto, and then folded their hands and bowed slightly.

Okamoto did the same, and also folded his hands and bowed in return.

For a time, the atmosphere at the scene reached the highest tide, and even many people were in tears.

Kozo Okamoto is really like a philanthropist, and his face is already very kind, which is quite deceptive.

Higashino looked around without smiling, and said with a sneer: "I really sympathize with these people!"

Cang Hao usually ignored what Dongye said without laughing, but Pang Jindong asked, "How do you say this?"

"They were obviously frightened by the Super Black Death. Higashino didn't smile and said very disdainfully: "But they didn't expect that it was Okamoto Kozo himself who spread the Super Black Death, not only did he not know the truth at this time, but he regarded Okamoto Kozo as a big savior." ”

Pang Jindong asked again: "So what do you think about this kind of thing?"

"All I can say is that most people are ignorant, and the public is often blinded. After a pause, Higashino continued without smiling: "Also, if you want to be a big savior for the public, it's also very simple. Make them feel the fear first, and then stand up to eliminate the fear, and they will kneel down and give you the chrysanthemum. I can see it, in fact, all the big saviors are big liars, the difference is just the difference in acting, some people play badly and lose their reputation, and some people can still receive incense after they die if they play well. ”

Cang Hao smiled and said: "Don't say it, this second B can sometimes say a few words of truth." ”

Higashino didn't laugh and was angry: "Why are you the second B!"

"You two don't say a word. Pang Jindong said a little impatiently: "From domestic to foreign quarrels, now in country T, do you want to let everyone watch jokes?"

Cang Hao and Dong Ye glanced at each other without smiling, and they were silent.

Soon, the event was over.

Somchai left for a while, not knowing what to do.

When he came back, he took Cang Hao and the others back to the car and whispered, "I prepared four submachine guns and put them in the trunk." ”

Cang Hao nodded: "Thank you." ”

"But if you don't have to, don't take it out. Song Chai told Cang Hao with no peace of mind: "After all, you are with our cabinet premier." ”

"I see what you mean. Cang Hao nodded again: "If you are not absolutely at ease with us, you will not prepare weapons for us at all." ”

"Of course. Song Chai sighed, looked around, and said casually: "Is the royal army still very face-saving?" ”

Cang Hao didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

"The event was organized by the Cabinet and invited representatives from all walks of life to build confidence. After a pause, Song Chai continued: "Originally, we didn't notify the royal army, but we didn't expect them to send someone over to protect it. ”

Cang Hao asked thoughtfully: "In other words, these soldiers at the scene were not transferred by you?"

"Of course not. Song Chai didn't take this matter to heart at all, looked at the time, and said, "Let's go and worship the Buddha, and then have lunch together." ”

Country T has a strong Buddhist tradition, and every citizen of country T has been a monk for a period of time as a "Buddhist servant".

As for the length of the Buddhist service, it varies from a few months to decades.

Therefore, it is normal for guests from afar to be entertained to worship the Buddha.

Dongye didn't smile and said helplessly: "Anyway, there is nothing to do, and there is only a trip to the mountains and rivers." ”

Cang Hao was not so relaxed, and glanced at Pang Jindong: "Master, what do you think?"

Pang Jindong smiled meaningfully: "I think something is going to happen!"

Higashino didn't smile and didn't understand at all: "What are you talking about?

"Nothing. Cang Hao patted Dongye's unsmiling shoulder for the first time, and he actually looked very affectionate: "Let's get in the car first, no matter what happens, if it comes, it will be safe." ”

The four of them were in a car, Pang Jindong sat in the co-pilot's seat, Wan Peng sat in the middle of the back row, and Cang Hao and Dongye Buxiao sat around Wan Peng, slightly crowded.

After the car started, it quickly accelerated and left the venue.

Cang Hao took a closer look and found that in addition to the three cars that his people on his side and Chawali and Okamoto Kozo were riding in, there were two cars in the entire convoy.

At the head is a police car, which is responsible for opening the road.

Behind the convoy was a lightly armored vehicle topped by heavily armed SWAT officers, apparently responsible for protecting Chavali.

Soon, the convoy arrived at the Temple of the Four Faces, which is the most famous attraction in Bangkok, and is a destination for all visitors to Bangkok.

November 9 is the birthday of Erawan Buddha every year, and countless celebrities gather here.

Not only in country T, but also as far as Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and even the whole of Southeast Asia, there are a large number of believers who come to worship the Buddha.

Cang Hao looked at the Buddha altar that was approaching, and briefly introduced: "Do you know that the name of the four-faced Buddha is Buddha, but it is not a Buddha, but a god. ”

"What's the difference between a Buddha and a god?" Higashino didn't smile and didn't understand at all: "Isn't a Buddha a god!"

"Wrong!" Pang Jindong shook his head: "Buddha, the full name is Buddha, which is transliterated from Sanskrit, if the paraphrase should be 'enlightened', that is, the enlightened person, who has attained supreme enlightenment, and has no divine meaning." ”

"Yes. Cang Hao patiently popularized science for the second B: "When primitive Buddhism was first born, in order to win believers from Brahmanism, it inherited some gods of Brahmanism, mainly the three main gods Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, but they were given different statuses in their own system. Today, there are three major schools of Buddhism, we mainly believe in Han Buddhism in China, and Southeast Asia belongs to Southern Buddhism, that is, Theravada. The two schools are not quite the same, the Han people only recognize Buddhism, not the existence of gods, and even claim that Buddhism is atheist. But Han Buddhism has been transformed to a large extent by our Chinese people, Theravada is different, they have some characteristics of primitive Buddhism. The so-called four-faced Buddha is actually Brahman, the god who created heaven and earth, and the father of all beings. ”

Dongye didn't smile and finally understood: "In other words, this god doesn't exist in our Huaxia?"

"Yes. Pang Jindong told Dongye not to smile: "However, it doesn't matter if there is or not, because Chinese Buddhists come to T country and still worship the Erawan Buddha here." After all, Buddhism is still very tolerant, and there are no fierce sectarian conflicts. ”

Cang Hao followed and said: "If anyone wants to do it here, it can be regarded as risking the world's condemnation." ”

"That's right. Pang Jindong sighed: "However, I also think that this place is really suitable for hands-on, when worshipping the Buddha, anyone will have no distractions, where would they think of being attacked." ”

Dongye didn't smile and thought that Cang Hao and Pang Jindong were really just talking about the Erawan Buddha, and at this time he was a little confused: "What attack?"

Pang Jindong replied very simply: "The military may want to kill Chavali!"

"What?" Higashino was startled without smiling, "Why do you say that?"

"The soldiers outside the venue were prepared for Chawalit. Cang Hao was very patient for the first time, and explained to Dong Ye Buxiao: "If I am not mistaken, those soldiers may be following behind now, ready to do it at the altar." ”

Higashino didn't smile and asked, "Why did the military kill Chavali?"

Dongye didn't smile and didn't understand the national conditions of country T, Pang Jindong had no choice but to temporarily popularize science: "There have always been contradictions between the cabinet and the military, historically, the cabinet could not control the army, and several times, the cabinet was overthrown by a military coup, and Chawali almost fell into such a fate." However, because Chawali dug up the corruption nest of the military, and then won the support of the king, causing a major change of blood within the military, so he temporarily gained the upper hand. ”

Cang Hao took over the topic and continued: "It is precisely because of the corruption nest case that the military must hate Chawali, in fact, we should have expected that the military would inevitably attack Chawali." ”

Higashino didn't smile and asked, "Then shouldn't we wake up?"

"Is it useful?" Pang Jindong said with a smile: "Chawali has no military power, and if the military decides to kill him, he can only be captured." ”

Higashino was not convinced by the smile: "Do you want to let Chavali wait for death?"

"Of course not. Cang Hao shook his head: "Isn't there still us." ”

Higashino didn't smile and asked stupidly, "Are we going to prepare?"

"Nothing to prepare. Pang Jindong knocked on the window and said with satisfaction: "It's not bad, it's a bulletproof car, and it can be used as a cover." ”

As he spoke, the convoy had stopped at the Buddhist altar on all sides.

The area here is not large, you can walk around in ten minutes, and the environment is very quiet.

Due to the depression of tourism, there are no tourists at the Buddhist altar, so there is no need to temporarily clear the site, just get off the bus.

Through the car window, Cang Hao had already seen the golden Buddha body, and suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the police car in front of the convoy exploded.

Cang Hao was not surprised at all: "Sure enough, it started!"

However, the next scene was unexpected by Cang Hao.

A group of militants emerged from the woods behind the altar, but instead of the royal army, they were dressed exactly like SWAT.

It can also be said to be exactly the same as the gang of militants in Sihanoukville.
