Chapter 136: Unlucky Old Adam
The day after the Coastal Mercenary Fight, in a secret interrogation room at the Rome Police Station, Old Adam stared at the two men sitting on the other side of the table with a pair of frightened eyes.
Although the two of them were wearing police uniforms, as a city fox and a mouse, the old Adam, who had been dealing with the police for three days, had never seen these two people.
"What do you mean, you left your men and fled first?" the police officer, who introduced himself as Charles, looked at him playfully.
"Let me think about it, let me think about it, it was so scary, those two mercenaries were ruthless, but they killed half of my men in a few minutes, and I was already scared! I can't remember many details!" Old Adam's legs kept shaking.
"You'd better think about it, or you'll know that we're terrible, much worse than those two mercenaries!" Charles leaned back in his chair and threw the pen in his hand onto the confession notebook, which bounced twice and finally fell on the table, and the pen collided with the metal countertop with a crisp sound, in which old Adam was trembling.
He was sure that these two men could make him feel something more fearful than those two mercenaries, and he was convinced that just now, these two men had killed two of his men, one of whom had his wrists cut open and died of slow bleeding, and the other had every bone in his body broken, and finally, the police officer named Philip, in the eyes of that man full of longing, slowly stabbed a dagger into his heart, and old Adam could see very clearly that his subordinate, before he died, actually showed a satisfied smile on his face.
The two demons didn't ask the two men any questions the whole time, the answers they wanted to hear needed him to say, and his two men were nothing more than two chickens that scared him.
"Let me ask you again, did you leave your men and flee?" Charles asked again, his eyes did not look at Old Adam, but the place where he looked made Old Adam terrified, because the two dead men had not been dragged out, and the blood on the ground had not been cleaned up, and Charles was looking in the direction of the two corpses.
"Yes, yes, I left them behind!" Old Adam had already shouted, and he had no way to keep his normal attitude: "Those two demons are going to kill me, and I have to run away while they are not looking!"
"Hehehe, haha, you know what? I've found all your men, of course, the ones who are alive, there are quite a few, and I've asked them this question to everyone, do you want to know what they say?" Charles's unbridled laughter reverberated back and forth in the interrogation room, and Old Adam's mind was completely crushed.
"No, no, I don't want to know what they said!" shouted old Adam nervously.
"Well, tell me how you met those two mercenaries, how you got on them, and how you calculated them in the end!" Charles said sternly, tapping on the table.
"I said, I said......" Old Adam hurriedly poured beans into a bamboo tube and told him how he followed a noble couple, how he lured them to the beach with words, how he organized men to besiege them when he got to the beach, and finally was killed.
When the old Adam was escorted out of the interrogation room, Charles sat in his chair disappointed, thinking that he would dig up some valuable information, but in the end it was a very simple scene of attempted robbery and being counter-killed.
Philip came over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be disappointed, we didn't get nothing, at least we know that those two mercenaries are nobles!"
"There are a lot of nobles in this country, and we can't look them all up. Charles grumbled.
"No, it's not my country, it's Franks, these two mercenaries are likely to be Frankish mercenaries, I have sent a message to let the inner line in Franks check the mercenaries who have the title of nobility in the Franks and have recently taken over tasks on the border of our country, there should be news in the next two days. Philip said as he pulled Charles and motioned for him to leave the interrogation room, where the blood and corpses had not been cleaned up, and the smell was not good.
"Do you suspect that these two mercenaries are Frankish Bauhinia mercenaries?" Charles looked at Philip.
"It's not a suspicion, it's a certainty, I'm just going to confirm it, following this clue, we are likely to catch a big fish, if this Bauhinia mercenary group really has a Frankish royal background, then we may be able to catch a member of the royal family!" Philip licked his lips, the idea was beautiful, but he knew that it was unlikely.
"What do we do now?" the two men asked Charles again as they walked into the office of the local police station that had been specially opened for them.
"Wait, and so on, and the clues from all sides are summarized. Look at this, this is the transcript of the hotel owner, the pair of mercenaries have two earth dragons and a fiery red war horse, no, according to the boss's record, one of the two earth dragons is a flying dragon. Philip handed a transcript to Charles.
"Wyvern? How is that possible? That's a controlled weapon!"
"It's a controlled weapon for our country, but what about Frankish? What about Germany? Have you heard that these two countries have included the Wyvern as a controlled weapon?" Philip poured himself a cup of coffee and continued as he stirred it: "The hotel owner's transcript mentioned that the magic scanner in their store has scanned two earth-walking dragons, and there is no flying dragon identity tag, do you understand what this means?"
"How could I not know! That flying dragon is not in our flying dragon record, this is an unidentified flying dragon, most likely it is a flying dragon from another country!"
"So, which country is most likely? String together all these recent events!" said Philip, continuing to induce Charles.
"Frank, the Bauhinia Mercenary Regiment, that elite squad!"
"That's right!" Philip nodded and continued: "I don't think there is any need to continue the investigation here, we have to report the situation here to the director, our sea lion plan needs to be suspended, I believe that our plan has been mastered by the Franks, and continuing to implement this plan now will only cause us heavy losses!"
"Report, sir, the latest information!" a policeman outside the door sent the latest information, and after the little policeman put down the information, he didn't even dare to raise his eyes to look at it, and immediately retreated.
Philip took a few glances at the information, and immediately handed it to Charles, he said: "I guessed the same, they came to reconnoiter our military port, they were observing outside our military port all day before yesterday, and yesterday they went to the beach next door to the officers' club, fortunately, there were not many people in the beach, they should not have found any useful information." ”
"Judging from this information, we really don't have to stay here any longer, what are you going to do back to Paris?" asked Charles.
"There's no point in going back and staying any longer! Inform the 40th and 51st Frontier Regiments to block the mouth of the Yalong Valley for me, I have a gut feeling that they will return from the Yalong Valley, and we will block them there!"
When Philip and Charles hurried out of the police station building, the chief of police in Rome was already waiting in front of the building, and when he saw the two of them coming out, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Captain Philip, Lieutenant Charles, are you leaving so soon?"
"Hello Mr. Director, yes, we will leave at once, the situation has changed, we must rush back to Paris as fast as possible, please help us prepare the fastest horses. "Philip had wanted to go to the police station's stable to find two good horses, but since their chief was here, it was not good to bypass the chief here, and go his own way.
"No problem!" the director turned around and whispered a few words to his entourage, then turned around and asked, "I wonder what to do with Adam and his dozen or so people?"
"Hmph, that's a bunch of scum who dare to attack the nobles of the Empire, they should be hung on the gallows. A cold voice came from Philip's mouth, and the police chief was busy explaining to his entourage, but Philip stopped him: "Mr. Chief, please wait a minute, we can't forget about those mercenaries!"
"Okay, those mercenaries are also hanging on the gallows?"
"No, those mercenaries rescued the Imperial nobles, and they should have been rewarded, but they intended to smuggle ethereal stones, which is also true, so punish them to hard labor for five years!" Philip directly took the place of judge and prosecutor, sending Adam and his mercenaries on a different path.
If Philip and Charles hadn't come, then Adam and his men would probably have been at large again, and since those mercenaries had been caught, hard labor was inevitable, but at most, the arrival of Philip and Charles changed their fate completely.
The chief of police sent Philip and Charles not a war horse, but a dragon on the ground, two neatly draped dragons, the two of them turned over and rode on the dragon, and took the reins of the spare dragon handed over by the policeman, and the two knocked on the belly of the dragon, and the two galloped to Paris.
As soon as they came out of the north gate, outside the city gate, a large group of people were watching the hanging people swinging, and the two of them deliberately slowed down, and saw clearly that the people who were hanging and hanging were indeed Adam.
Those mercenaries naturally don't need to care, they must be on the way to the hard labor field now, the two looked at each other, I really didn't expect that this Roman police chief was quite efficient.
The two of them didn't care how the robbers, who looked like civilians, wailed and cried, and didn't even watch everyone's execution, they indifferently galloped past the crowd of onlookers, and soon disappeared at the end of the road.
Also galloping on the road were Yu Wuming and Vivian, who were ready to rush to Lausanne, Switzerland, in two days, according to Vivian, there happened to be an intelligence station of the Empire in Lausanne, where they could settle down and send the information back to China through the magic communication machine of the intelligence station.
They shot more than ten people in one go, this is a serious criminal case anywhere, it will inevitably attract the attention of the local police, they can only run far away to avoid the other party's sight, even so, Wei Wei Anxin did not put down the stone, she is also an intelligence officer, their series of actions, must have attracted the attention of the intelligence department of the Angsa Empire, the Angsa Empire came to the door, it was only a matter of time.
Maybe the Angsa Empire hadn't reacted yet, or maybe it was the reason why a lot of other reasons were piled up, anyway, except for the large group of peasant bandits, the two of them ran smoothly into the Alps, then into the mountain town of Lausanne, and then into the hammam in the center of the city.
