Chapter 176: Assassination (5) -- Fruit
But this obviously couldn't convince Zhao Teng. Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info shook his head and retorted: "But you are now a Ming person!" It's not the Mon! And how do you know that the assassins are Mon? The Police Division has not made public the progress of the case. Did you know the Assassin before? ”。 The further down he goes, the heavier the tone becomes.
In fact, he suspected that Zhou Ye was not just tattooed. There was also the timing of Zhou Ye's slip and fall at that time, and the reason for explaining afterwards. Because, according to him, he fell because the bike was not properly maintained, which caused the chain to break.
But Zhao Teng's father runs a bicycle factory, and Zhao Teng also has some understanding of related issues. Under normal circumstances, the bicycle is not well maintained, and most of them are off the chain and off the chain. Unless the chain has a poor breaking force, the pulling force it bears is insufficient. Otherwise, it is very difficult to break the link.
Although Zhao Teng's father's car dealership is state-owned, his father is the factory director, and he is actually in charge of the entire car dealership, which can be regarded as half of his own. Therefore, Zhao Teng knows the quality of his own car best. So he took advantage of Zhou Ye's inattention and carefully checked the chain of the car.
Only then did I find that there were many traces of human wear and tear on the chain, which was not just a matter of maintenance. And the broken sawtooth is straight. This indicates that someone had done something to the chain beforehand. Thinking of the time when Zhou Ye slipped and fell, it was a coincidence, and he couldn't help but doubt Zhou Ye.
Coming to ask him today is also a temptation. After all, speculation is speculation, not an established fact. But judging from Zhou Ye's words just now, he was obviously aware of the assassin's actions. It's just that whether or not you participated, and how much you participated, is another matter.
At this time, Zhou Ye sneered twice. seems to agree with Zhao Teng's words, and he doesn't defend himself. Instead, he said in a tone of reminiscence: "You know what? Before '92, when I was still living in Myanmar. The Burmese king not only imposed heavy taxes on our Mon people, but also allowed the Burmese to seize the territory of our Mon people. The slightest disobedience will result in beating and scolding, and at worst death.
In particular, in 1790, the Burmese king Bodaopaya (Meng Yun) wanted to build a 150-meter-high Ming Gong pagoda, so he forcibly conscripted 100,000 laborers. The young and strong men in our village were basically captured by him. My father and my two older brothers were also captured by Burmese soldiers at that time. Later, they never came back. I was only 10 years old! If he hadn't been young, he would have been taken away.
So, I hate the king of Burma! Hate all the Burmese! Speaking of this, his face distorted together, revealing a frightening anger.
"So! You're in league with those Assassins! As he spoke, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Zhao Teng was shocked, turned around and saw Horton standing proudly at the door, like a victorious rooster. Behind him, there were also Zhang Yang, deputy director of the Intelligence Department, and Luo Bin, director of the Police Department, who looked serious and stared at Zhou Ye with their eyes like torches, obviously agreeing with Horton's words.
And in the aisle, there are also a large number of police officers in navy blue uniforms.
It turned out that Horton lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, afraid that Zhao Teng and Zhou Ye would discuss something unfavorable to him. I secretly ran to the next room to eavesdrop! And this Dongying inn is basically built in accordance with the traditional Japanese house, using wooden building materials. This sound insulation effect is naturally not very good.
It was also Zhao Teng and Zhou Ye who were so involved that they forgot that the wall had ears!
So Horton accidentally overheard the secret of the assassination. He didn't like Zhou Ye, so he immediately used the inn's phone to notify the police department and asked them to arrest people.
In this way, Zhou Ye and Zhao Teng were taken away. After some understanding, Zhao Teng was indeed innocent and was released. This made Zhao Guangyi, who was waiting outside the police department, cry with joy.
And Zhou Ye was left for strict interrogation because he was too suspicious. In the end, he is a fifteen-year-old and a half-year-old child, how can he withstand the various interrogation methods of modern times. was only locked up in a small black room for half a day, and Zhou Ye cried and recruited everything.
It turned out that he was indeed involved in the assassination, but strictly speaking, it had nothing to do with it. Because the day before the assassination, his uncle came to tell him to stay away from the Burmese prince during the competition. Although he guessed something, he was not sure.
It wasn't until the assassination happened that he dared to believe it. It was also after the fact that he found out that his uncle had tampered with his bicycle and tried to prevent him from racing. But he didn't think about it, he was stunned and persevered until the moment before the crime, and fortunately saved Zhao Teng and others.
Hearing this, Zhang Yang and Luo Bin's frowning brows were also slightly relieved. However, Zhang Yang threw out the next question.
"But none of the three assassins are related to you."
This made Zhou Ye silent for nearly a quarter of an hour, before he was like a deflated ball, drooping his head, and said helplessly: "He is not a Ming man." ”。 I know I can't be cheated, but I don't want to confess. It's like squeezing toothpaste, and only half of it is said.
Zhang Yang and Luo Bin didn't urge him, just waited quietly and let him explain slowly.
After a few more minutes of silence, he continued: "My uncle fled to Siam, and now he is the personal guard of the Siamese envoys. ”。
Publicize them, and immediately let out a sigh. He didn't stay long, and immediately led a large group of people to the Siamese embassy to arrest people.
Unfortunately, when I went, the envoy of the embassy said that the Siamese envoy had gone to the national hospital to visit the Burmese prince.
These words were like a bomb loaded into a clock, which made Zhang Yang and their hearts tense suddenly.
Just as they rushed to the hospital, the British embassy was opposite the Siam embassy. Magorny was standing in front of a transparent glass window with a panoramic view of the Police Division's movements.
"That's fine! lest we do it! Magorny said pleasantly. If Da Ming didn't find out the murderer again, he couldn't help but want to help. But in that case, the UK is at risk of being exposed. So it's just a joke. He won't make a move unless he has to.
Philip stood respectfully beside Magorny, half a step behind. responded: "I just don't know if the Meng people can grasp the opportunity." His face was a little worried. After all, this is a game that Britain has put a lot of effort into arranging, and if the timing is not right, this game will not be able to play its maximum effect.
Margorny shook his head disapprovingly, and said in a firm tone: "The Meng people will seize the opportunity!" Otherwise, the deal with us will not be reached. And... The rest of his words didn't come out. This visit to the Ming Dynasty was a foreshadowing that had been laid long before the visit to the Qing Dynasty. Since God had given him the opportunity to perfect these foreshadowings himself, he had to do his best to plant fruit for England.
The Meng people are just one of them.
