Chapter 454: A Guest from Far Away
(Thank you very much hjjggtujhfju and Milan little carpenter for the monthly ticket reward~~)
Ansel sat back in his chair and yawned, suffocating himself from the strong tea on the table, rubbing his fingers between the bridge of his nose and trying to dispel the fatigue of his body and mind to stay awake. β³
"Inspector Ansel, why don't you go back and sleep for a while, we'll take care of the matter here for the time being, and we'll let you know as soon as there is a situation."
In the office, after a sleepy Maiden buried his head in sorting out the copywriting, he looked at his boss who was not in a good mental state and comforted him.
Anse El sighed deeply, and a smile appeared on his resolute face and said to his deputy: "Maiden, compared to the hard work of everyone outside, how can we relax at will while waiting for news comfortably in the office?" Don't persuade me, I know my physical condition, and if I can't stand it anymore, I'll lie on the table and rest for a while. β
"Okay, then I'll make you another cup of tea." Maiden knows his boss's personality too well and knows that he can't convince the other party, so he can only express his helplessness in another way.
"I'm sorry for you." As he spoke, Anse El handed the teacup on the table to Maiden, who stepped forward.
Maiden took the teacup and looked at Anse Elle, who had strict circles under his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sometimes his dedication to duty was really admirable, and the subordinates around him who were deeply affected seemed to have great pressure and shame if they had the slightest slackness.
He may not be a good boss, but he is definitely a role model that deserves to be recognized.
Turning around and walking towards the door, the office door was slammed open. A group of grim and solemn people in black uniforms swarmed in.
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs does the work. Idle people wait to retreat! β
Out of the black uniform came a grim man wearing a large-brimmed hat. He glanced at Maiden in front of him and reprimanded unceremoniously.
"I wonder what the Ministry of Internal Affairs is here for?"
At this time, Anse El stood up from his chair and looked directly at the other party and said in a deep voice.
"You're Inspector Anse El of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Sheriff's Office?!" The man in the brimmed hat said in a cold tone.
"It's down there!" Anse El nodded fearlessly in acknowledgement.
"This is our credentials and warrant for our arrest, Inspector Ansel! Please come with us. After the man in the big brimmed hat confirmed the identity of the other party, he immediately showed the ID on his body, and then waved his big hand, and the subordinates in black uniforms around him immediately walked towards Anse El.
"Don't bother you, I'll be honest with your scrutiny."
After confirming that the documents were correct, Ansel coldly stopped the forced arrest of the black-uniformed personnel. Then he walked directly to the man in the brimmed hat under their guarded eyes.
"Maiden, I'll take care of it here, remember, if something unexpected happens, report it to Director Potlem immediately!"
Before leaving, Ansel did not forget to tell his deputy to leave under the escort of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he didn't seem to be worried about his situation at all, as if he had been prepared for it, thinking that it was nothing more than arrogant and arrogant, and the behavior of overstepping his subordinates was exposed, and it was just a big deal to be dismissed and investigated. It's just that it's a bit surprising that the other party came so quickly.
The Ministry of the Interior has a transcendent position in MontrΓ©es and does not belong to the same level as the Department of Justice. They are directly under the orders of Lord Augsig, and they are responsible for the internal law and discipline in Montreles, and anyone who dares to resist will be punished as treason, and the other administrative departments of Monteres are simply disgusted with the Ministry of the Interior, and once they are allowed to come to the door, it basically means that bad luck has come and their reputation is ruined.
Anse El has been known for the Ministry of the Interior for a long time, and this is the first time he has been arrested and interrogated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in addition to a little uneasiness, even mixed with excitement, it is really complex and strange ambivalence.
Out of the public security hall, the sky was still dark, the stars and purple moon shining in the night sky seemed to be much dimmed under the cover of the clouds, and the group quickly disappeared and left in the carriage of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"I'm curious about one thing, whether the eyes of your internal affairs department are planted in every corner of Montreles, otherwise how to explain your efficiency?"
Coincidentally, in the carriage escorting Ansel, there was a man in a big-brimmed hat who came to arrest him, anyway, the journey was boring, Ansel simply asked some doubts in his heart.
"You seem to be mistaken about something." The man in the big brimmed hat glanced at him coldly and said, "We didn't come to arrest you because of your trespassing. β
"Huh? What's going on? Anse El was slightly stunned.
"You'll find out later." After saying this, the big-brimmed hat didn't pay attention to the other party again.
Isn't it a transgression?
Anse El frowned, thinking about the meaning of the other party's words in his mind, he didn't remember that he had violated the law and discipline, could it be that someone deliberately framed him when he didn't like it? While he did have many enemies, he didn't believe anyone could have such a great deal of power to influence the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was directly under Lord Augsig.
The wheels are rolling and time flies.
Suddenly, the carriage slowed to a halt, and before Ansel could come to his senses, the housekeeper in the carriage rudely pushed him off.
Staggering to the ground, Ansel's anger instantly dissipated when he saw the building in front of him, because the stately building standing in front of him was not the office of the Ministry of the Interior at all, but the residence of Lord Augsger!
"This is ......"
Looking at the font of the Governor's Mansion with silver hooks on the plaque above the gate, Ansel trembled physically and mentally, and the whole person was stunned.
"Let's go! Don't waste your time! β
Feeling a sharp push from behind, Anse Elton came to his senses, and then walked into the governor's palace in a daze under the push of the internal staff.
Walking through the garden corridor, before he knew it, the housekeeper who was escorting him was the only one left with the brimmed hat, and they stopped in front of the door of a richly decorated hall.
Knock knock knock -
The big-brimmed hat knocked on the door cautiously, and said in a very respectful voice: "Lord Augsig, the person you want has been brought by his subordinates. β
"Bring him in." Inside the door, a deep voice spoke.
"Yes."
As he spoke, the big-brimmed hat pushed open the door and walked in with his hand pressed Ansel's head.
"Eden, I've worked hard for you, let him go and retreat." A deep, deep voice rang out again.
"Yes."
Ansel's lowered head was in a state of pressure, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the big brimmed hat leaving, but he didn't dare to raise his head.
Quite simply, because he didn't dare.
"Ansel, I've heard of you, Montres is a good law and order thanks to people like you, and here I need to thank you for all these years of hard work and effort."
The familiar voice sounded again, and Ansel hurriedly said in fear: "Your Excellency is falsely praised!" β
"Lift your head up! How? Don't you even have the courage to look at me? His voice said with a hint of teasing.
Anse El took a deep breath, his stiff neck slowly lifted, and in his sight, a middle-aged man with a majestic figure in the seat in front of him suddenly caught his eye.
His sitting posture is very casual, his bronzed face is full of angular coldness, his thick eyebrows are raised high, his eyes are dark and deep, the bridge of his nose is straight, and his thin and pursed lips are pursed with a dissolute smile, like a lonely and arrogant Lin Ying in the dark night.
"Ansel, don't talk nonsense, I'm looking for you this time to ask about something."
There is no doubt that the lord of Monteres, Augsig, is on the throne!
"My lord, I must know everything and say everything!" Ansel bowed his head respectfully.
"Before that, you might as well listen to the other guests in the hall." Augsig said lightly.
It was only then that Anse El noticed that there were other people in the hall, and when he looked around, he saw two strange men sitting on the seat to his right, and the feeling on their bodies was very strange, full of mysterious awe.
Hearing Augsig's words, a man in the seat stood up and said: "More than half a month ago, a merchant ship from Port Louis across the channel in the waters near Monteres was attacked by pirates, except for the captain who was seriously injured and fell into the sea, all the other crew members were unfortunately killed, and the ship was burned. Gotch! β
Well? Hearing the man's words, Ansel's eyes widened, as if he had thought of something.
"If it weren't for the captain of the merchant navy who was rescued by chance, we wouldn't have known an important secret hidden in this matter." The man continued: "The captain woke up from a coma the other day, and he told us that the man who had hired him to cross the Strait of the Summer Wind to Monterres and assassinate them was the one who wanted them! β
At this time, Ansel completely understood the reason why Master Augsg "invited" him over!
"Ansel, I know you've been tracking down Brunding lately. Gooch & Claydo. The truth of Ochie's death, if it is not bad, should be unmistakable about the people who caused these two murders. Augsig said calmly, "These two are from the Inquisition of the Radiant Sanctuary, I need your help in finding clues to the wanted murderers on the text!" Therefore, I will give you the power to cut first and then play to ensure that the tracking is smooth! β
"Thank you for your trust, your subordinates will not disappoint you!" Ansel immediately knelt on the ground and said in a respectful voice.
"Get up, and then you can discuss the matter with them about the investigation."
Augsig nodded, then left them and left the hall.
"Inspector Ansel! I'm sorry for you. β
The two men from the Inquisition said to Ansel with expressionless faces.
Calming down his nervous excitement, Anse El clenched his fists.
"Without further ado! Please come with me to the Public Security Department for the time being! (To be continued.)
