Chapter 366: The Scapegoat
Morgan. After William's matter became a big one, the Navy Headquarters basically dug up all the information related to William that the Navy Headquarters could find.
Including the collusion between Roy, Alcatio, and William, especially Colonel Roy's charges of embezzlement and bribery, collusion with localities, and self-respect, are even clearer.
Originally, because of Akin's matter, the navy from the East China Sea has been implicated to a certain extent. Heller was not only from the East Sea, but also an officer recommended by Colonel Roy.
The current Colonel Roy has been regarded as a sinner and a parasite by the top brass of the Navy, believing that he is the culprit who led to William's rise.
The officers he recommended were naturally even more unpopular.
Later, the Navy investigated that Yusolin. Heller had been in private contact with newspaper reporters, and was the source of clues to the news that caused the navy to encircle William, and he was directly sent to the cold palace and sent to the frontier.
Either Yusolin. Heller's behavior of privately contacting newspaper reporters and his attitude towards the untruthfulness of the news and thus causing deviations in naval intelligence have violated the taboo of the Navy's top brass.
They don't care about Yusolin. Heller's repeated reports within the Navy that no one heeded, may be pursued after the fact, but for now, they will only pursue Yusorin. Heller poked the internal affairs of the Navy to the problems of outsiders.
If it weren't for the fact that the navy was still at war with William and others at this time, the person who would have been stabbed out of William's deeds would be punished, and the internal impact would be bad, and it would be easy to cause criticism. Heller's situation could be a little worse.
Yu Solin. Heller is now stationed at a desert island outpost not far from the windless zone, which is inaccessible except for Ursolin. Heller has no one else to live in, and even in the surrounding seas, he may not be able to see a ship passing by for half a day.
Due to the change of the navy's usual route into the windless zone, this post was almost abandoned. Heller's task is to prepare enough fresh water for the warships that are about to pass by after receiving orders from his superiors, as well as provide a place to rest, and if he sees a pirate ship appearing in the surrounding waters, he must also use the phone bug to notify his superiors as soon as possible.
But in fact, since Yusolin. After Heller arrived here, he never used the phone bug, and this phone bug that depended on him seemed to be infected on weekdays, wilted, and had no energy, as if he was sick.
During this time, Yusolin. Heller often has nightmares, groggy every day, he actually has a bad premonition in his heart, but because he has no clue, he can't connect it all together, and only when he dreams every day, he will be awakened by the faint speculation in his heart.
"It's early in the morning......." Yu Solin. Heller leaned his face to his watch in the moonlight, barely made out the time, and muttered to himself.
Then he didn't light the lamp, just like that, staring out the window, thinking about his future, thinking about the current form of the outside world, thinking about the original ideals, thinking about Colonel Roy's admonitions, thinking about all the mess, and his mind was in a mess.
Yu Solin. Heller was thinking wildly, and suddenly rubbed his eyes, and on the shore in the distance, a small warship quietly approached the shore.
Yu Solin. Heller immediately looked back at the phone bug, but found that the phone bug was still lying on the table, sleeping deadly, and even a small snot bubble appeared, which did not ring at all.
Yu Solin. Heller's mind was suspicious.
With the remoteness of this place, even pirates who scurry around the sea like headless flies all day long will not patronize it, let alone such a warship that is undamaged and alone? If you are ordered to come, you should also be notified by your superiors.
Yu Solin. Heller shook his head vigorously, driving away the drowsiness and confusion, and pulled his revolver out of a nearby drawer.
This kind of weapon, which is now very common in the East China Sea, has not yet been listed as a weapon by the Navy. Heller paid for it himself.
Yu Solin. Heller has also been on the Great Voyage for a long time, and knows the atmosphere here, there is no shortage of daring pirates, and they can't do anything to pretend to be a navy.
He checked the ammunition, and by the moonlight he saw four uniformed figures disembarking from the ship and sneaking towards the outpost.
The actions of these people made Yusolin even more. Heller felt wary, and he tightened the revolver in his hand, glad that he had woken up in time for the night, and that he was usually familiar with the outpost environment because of boredom and nervousness.
Yu Solin. Heller quickly arranged the room in a simple way, pretending to be a sign of escape, and then pulled on the floor next to the bed for a while, setting off a mossy cellar entrance that had not been used for a long time, and almost merged with the surrounding floor, thus becoming hidden.
Because the outpost is close to being abandoned, there are no longer as many materials stored as before, and this cellar has long been sealed and not used. Heller found out that there was such a hidden place next to this bed, and because of the faint insecurity in his heart, he has moved to this bed since then.
Yu Solin. Heller took her weapon and hid under the cellar, deliberately leaving a gap at the edge of the cellar door, and listened intently to the movement in the room.
The gates of the outpost, which had fallen into disrepair, even if they were opened carefully, would still make a slight noise, which might have been fooled to the ears of those who were asleep, but to the ears of those who were attentive, it was very harsh.
Four strange navies crept to the dormitory, and at a glance they saw empty beds facing the door.
Three of them, with their faces changing in unison, strode into the room, and when they looked around, they found that there was no one in the room.
The last to enter the room was a dark-faced, old-looking naval officer, who seemed to be the commander of the four, and glanced at the room of Yusolin. After the arrangement left by Heller, he asked in a solemn tone, "He got the news!?" ”
After sending the other two Navy soldiers to the other rooms to investigate, the black-faced officer directly placed Yusolin on the table. Heller's phone bug picked it up and dialed.
The other side of the phone was quickly connected, and the black-faced officer said succinctly: "The person is gone!" ”
"How so?" A rhetorical question came from the other end of the phone bug.
"He may have received some news," the post was very small, and the other two searching Navy soldiers had already returned at this time, and the black-faced officer looked at them with a phone bug, both of them shook their heads, and the officer said to the phone, "We searched the outpost, but we didn't find any trace of him, he should have fled in advance." ”
"There is a private harbor south of the outpost, where there is the only small boat on the whole island, he must have run there, you go after it! Be sure to arrest him, don't let him run away! The man on the other end of the line commanded urgently.
"Got it." The black-faced officer hung up the phone expressionlessly, his eyes sweeping from under the bed as if unintentionally.
At the other end of the cellar, Yusolin. Heller covered his mouth tightly in order to control the cry of grief, and the phone bug imitated the voice of the user on the other end of the phone vividly. Heller could already hear it, it was the voice of the lieutenant colonel who brought him here on his first day on the island.
