Chapter XXXIII
As in the previous meeting in the Old Town, at the long table in the dining room, a message board was used to sort out the conditions.
The prisoner, the end, the means, and the result, these four items are written on the message board. Lloyd and Yu Tatsumi stood on either side of the message board, with Chief Sergei and Second Colonel Sonia sitting closest to the message board, Sergeant Noelle sitting next to Sonya, and the rest of the Support Section filling in other positions in turn.
Lloyd couldn't help but be a little nervous, he didn't know what Yu Tatsumi had mastered, but he knew that this black-haired man had extraordinary insight and experience, and if he dared to say that he knew the real murderer, then he should know for sure.
What we need to do now is to identify our shortcomings.
Lloyd first consolidated the information and wrote the following information on the message board.
Prisoner: Black [Harmony] Wolves, Purpose: Hunger, Whim, Means: The physical ability of the wolf, as a result, disaster in various places.
Based on the information Lloyd and the others obtained, this is the most reasonable inference.
Looking at this meeting, Sonia couldn't help but wonder, it seems that this young investigator does have a set. Noelle, by contrast, was a bit more reserved. She was a member of the garrison, in a sense, a military man. The military and the police think differently a lot of the time, and she's excited to see what Lloyd will do next.
Lloyd took a breath, eased his tension a little, and said, "Among the known conditions, there is one condition that is not quite suitable. ”
You didn't wait for others to answer, and took a pen and casually ticked off the words behind the purpose: "It's the purpose." If the purpose of the wolves is to starve, then the damage to the hospital and the mine town cannot be said, if the purpose is a whim, don't you think it is too rigorous? ”
"That's right, and, on a whim, the wolves at the hospital have clearly orchestrated their invasion strategy." Lloyd nodded in agreement with his companion. "Now, is there anything wrong with this questionnaire?"
"Then, what is the identity of the wolf-shaped demonic beast?" Noelle asked with some excitement, she really wanted to know what kind of monster she had been playing with the garrison for three weeks.
Lloyd was stunned, he didn't expect Noelle to ask this when he came up, and he didn't know how to explain it, so he could only look at Yu Tatsumi helplessly.
The brunette boy casually hooked again. Rewrite the black [Harmony] wolf pack as "black military dogs".
Noelle flickered, and after thinking about it, he understood what he meant. Indeed, wolves and dogs are similar in some characteristics, and with the fact that most of the affected areas were attacked late at night, it is understandable to see the wrong wolf and dog in a low-light situation.
Moreover, since it is a military dog, then there must be a commander? Someone commanded someone to help escape, so it is understandable that they can avoid the search of the garrison. Noelle felt his train of thought suddenly clear.
Second Colonel Sonia also nodded in agreement, and asked rhetorically, "But, what does this mean?" ”
Yes, now this table is still confusing, and there is no clue about all kinds of information.
Hearing her ask, coupled with the fact that You had rewritten the Warcraft into a military dog before, Lloyd smiled confidently: "I can't explain anything." ”
Several of them were puzzled, not knowing what Lloyd was thinking. Lloyd also saw their confusion and continued: "So, guys, how about we think differently? ”
Lloyd said, picking up his pen and turning to rewrite the message board.
Prisoner:? , Purpose: Physical fitness of black military dogs, means: black military dogs, Result: Disaster in various places.
“!”
It's just the same content, but with a slight switch of each other, the perspective is immediately different. What was originally an incident of a demonic beast attacking a person has suddenly become an incident of deliberate destruction by someone in order to test the ability of military dogs, and the nature has changed from a disaster to a deliberate injury......
Chief Sergei smiled with interest.
What a flexible way of thinking. Colonel Sonia praised in her heart.
I still need to exercise...... Noelle reflected in his heart.
"The perspective has completely changed!" Randy said casually in surprise, obviously a member of the Support Section, but he was as surprised as an outsider......
"Well, I know you're surprised, but let me talk about the suspect and the conclusion first." Yuki Tatsumi seemed to be pleased with everyone's surprised expressions.
"First of all, the suspects. Assuming that the black ** beast is a military dog, then it is obvious that someone must be commanding them. As for the organizations that have the financial and material resources and the necessity for this, they are the Garrison, the Mafia, and the Karuman Foundation. ”
After speaking, she glanced at Second Colonel Sonya, and this intellectually calm woman did not waver in the slightest. When ordinary people hear that someone is deducting a trumped-up charge against themselves, I'm afraid they will be the first to stand up and refute it, right? She wasn't angry, but Noelle next to her was a little indignant.
"However, the garrison should be able to rule it out, I think, no one should be able to hide from Deputy Commander Sonia to secretly carry out this kind of thing, right?" You immediately removed an option.
Second Colonel Sonia nodded: "I'm sure." Even if the commander were to carry out this matter, I would definitely have a certain degree of mastery. ”
"Then, the next thing that can be ruled out is the Karuman consortium."
Without waiting for the tour to finish, Noelle immediately retorted: "Why can they be excluded? ”
I saw that there was anger in her expression, and it was obvious that she knew about the Karuman Consortium and hated what they did.
What a jealous hate, I'm afraid I really hate Karumen's group, right? What a coincidence, I hate those guys too.
You thought about irrelevant things in his heart, and continued to explain: "Because, if it is the Karumon consortium, it will go even further, and it will not restrict intelligence. After all, they are 'merchants', and advertising is pointless if no one knows about it. ”
"Hmm...... Truly...... Sorry to interrupt you. "Noelle is not a dull person, and when she listens to You's slightest break, she understands that her thoughts are not mature enough.
She knew a little about the "glorious deeds" of the Karuman consortium. After all, that's the notorious "famous" Arms Chamber of Commerce...... In order to propagate weapons, they openly provoked fights, deliberately provoked state authority, sold high-powered weapons regardless of their targets, and even conspired to provoke a certain civil war...... Either way, it made this girl with a sense of justice grit her teeth.
Especially recently, they have openly settled in Crossbell, and although they are still in the preparation period, Noelle is convinced that they will definitely do something. Although the style of the Karuman consortium has been softening in recent years, it is still overly radical. Even if they had hired a hunting regiment to attack Crossbell, Noelle would not have been surprised.
If a person's nerves are constantly strained on something, they will become sensitive to all its information. Noelle was also too nervous about the Karuman consortium, so when he heard that the lobbying was not done by them, Noelle's first reaction was to help the Karuman consortium exonerate.
Giving Noelle a tolerant smile, You continued nonchalantly: "And Cross Bell's mafia forces, the only ones who can become the climate are Lubacher and Black Moon." And, just now, conclusive evidence has emerged. ”
"It's a sudden retreat of the garrison." It's not Lloyd, it's Ellie who reacts first this time.
After all, she is a person who wants to enter politics, and she has heard a little about the collusion between Rubacher and Crossbell's Imperial Councillors, and the rumors that the commander of the garrison is actually an Imperial Congressman who has fostered a high position.
"Well, the timing was too good." You nodded and continued: "Although there is no conclusive evidence yet, it is estimated that you can know a little bit by going to Mine Town, right?" It's just ............"
Although You didn't finish speaking, everyone understood what he meant.
Since it is related to the imperial parliamentarians, I am afraid that even if the evidence is conclusive, it cannot be punished, right? In the early years, the garrison also cracked smuggling cases many times and intercepted a large amount of contraband, but in the end, with the intervention of the parliamentarians, the prisoners were released, and even the smuggled goods were returned......
The crowd was silent, and everybody knew that. Second Colonel Sonia also sighed and sighed "Bad situation". Noelle also muttered to himself reluctantly: "Is there no way......
Seeing that everyone was silent, You shrugged his shoulders and asked, "Although it can't really cause punishment, how about we teach them a lesson?" Moreover, it can also give them the impression that 'someone is investigating them', so that they will be more careful in the future, at least not to cause trouble to people. ”
"Lessons?" Lloyd couldn't help but think of the bad boys who had been making trouble in the Old Town before.
When it comes to the word lesson, if it is used as a noun, in a context such as learning a lesson, it will feel like a good thing. And if it is used as a verb, such as teaching a certain lesson, it always reminds people of private fights, violations of discipline and law, and the like.
"For example, we and a couple of members of the security team, arrest them and something. Although it doesn't have any effect, I'm afraid it will give Lubacher the illusion of being targeted, right? Rubacher will definitely not ask for the removal of the garrison of the mine town for no reason, then, they must be planning something, such as the garrison will not protect you, we will protect you, but we have to give us a sum of money or something. After all, this is the time of confrontation between Rubacher and Black Moon, and the accumulation of funds is also necessary, right? ”
Yu Tatsumi said his speculation in one breath, and his expression became more and more confident. In some ways, his reasoning skills are better than those of Lloyd, an active investigator, especially when it comes to the machinations of evil forces.
"I see, do you have some reliable players?" Second Colonel Sonia muttered softly, her eyes subconsciously glancing to the side. Although it may seem arbitrary, in reality, there are many things to consider.
First of all, the team members must be non-aristocratic factions, otherwise the gains outweigh the losses...... In other words, it has to be someone Sonia can trust.
Secondly, there must not be too many team members, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that the commander will not see anything - although Sonia is sure that he can't see it, he must be careful in everything. In particular, this incident could be mishandled and could lead to a major disturbance within the garrison, which must not happen at this time.
Moreover, there needs to be a suitable reason for this team member to be reasonable in Mine Town.
In the end, the team members also need to have enough "weight", at least to let the mafia think about whether they can make a move against him before they make a move.
And all things considered, the most suitable person..................
Sonia smiled mysteriously, glanced at Yuu Tatsumi, and said, "Then, Noelle, do you want to take a little vacation?" ”
