Chapter 684: A stab in the back

Soon Memnon's personal lawyer appeared in the headquarters building, and while some people didn't know why Memnon was able to see people outside, it wasn't strange to think about it. After all, Federer's press conference can be said to have alarmed many people, and tomorrow's newspaper will definitely use a large page to report the content of the press conference, and it will be the entire domestic and foreign public opinion circles that will be alarmed at that time. At this time, Memnon must have to find a way to protect himself, and when they knew that this person was a lawyer, they confirmed a statement.

Memnon has to plead guilty, so he needs to find a lawyer to discuss how to minimize his crimes.

They asked for a room without a recorder, and Memnon sat in his chair with a gloomy face, and he glanced up at the lawyer who had entered the door, and threw away the minutes of the press conference on the table, which he had specially requested from Main, "Look, I'm in big trouble. ”

The lawyer silently read the minutes of the meeting from beginning to end, and finally closed them and put them back on the table, he took off his gold-rimmed eyes and wiped them with a clean handkerchief, and as he wiped them, he asked, "Tell me what you think, I don't think it's appropriate." ”

"I'm going to plead guilty. Memnon's words did not make the lawyer appear any surprise, or any other expression, he nodded unhurriedly, Memnon continued, "I noticed that in this meeting record Federer confessed to our circle of interests in the West, but I don't know whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, he did not point the finger directly at me, but at the Western Mining Association. In all these things he confessed, I was more of a decent person than controlling the tax rate. ”

Speaking of this, Mennon himself couldn't help but laugh a few times, "He only said this now, before people react, before their curiosity is transferred from the Western Mining Association to me, I will first confess my guilt, and then find a way to get rid of it, this is my idea, do you think it is appropriate?"

Memnon was well aware that professional questions should be left to professionals, so he did not say anything else in his mind, but wanted to hear the answers given to him by a lawyer who had graduated from the law department of the Imperial Royal College and had a very good resume.

The lawyer put the handkerchief in his pocket, and the moment he raised his head with the legs of his glasses in both hands to put them on his eyes, the gold-rimmed eyes obscured a ...... It looks like the face of a bad guy, and the slightly hideous face becomes much softer under the backdrop of the gold-rimmed eyes, and the polite appearance is like a well-dressed beast. He took out a notebook and a pen from his briefcase, and then nodded and said: "This idea of yours is very good, I also read this record just now, but I did not find the 'incriminating evidence' you mentioned in it, but I found some evidence that you are a great politician." ”

"You have a very good saying, before people's curiosity is transferred to you, this road is to be strangled. The lawyer's understatement voice seemed to be very sure that this would definitely not be a difficult lawsuit, and his statement and attitude made Memnon a little itchy. When he thought the worst was on the horizon and was willing to suffer some damage, his lawyer told him that he was innocent, and there was nothing more impatient to know why.

Memnon couldn't help but stand up, he took a few steps, tilted his head and asked, "If I am innocent, can I not confess my guilt?"

The lawyer smiled and put down his notebook and pen, and he leaned back in his chair, his legs crossed, one hand pressed against the edge of the table, and the other on the back of the chair. He stretched out his hand and opened his palm horizontally and made a small gesture similar to a display, "Look, isn't this an obvious thing? The purpose of lowering the tax rate is to stimulate the mining market in the western region, and at the same time, it is also in response to the Cabinet's call to speed up the construction of the infrastructure of the whole society." If some mining resources necessary for social infrastructure are subject to high tax rates, this will make the miners' desire to mine less motivated, make them more passive, and will also cause the output to decline, which is not conducive to the mining resources in the western region to enter the market, and it is not in line with the cabinet's call to accelerate the construction of social infrastructure. ”

"The reduction of the tax rate stimulates the mining desire and speed of the miners, and at the same time keeps this part of the tax in the society, and consumption can greatly stimulate the economic construction of the entire empire, which is also a good thing. ”

"As for you contacting merchants to buy these mineral resources in bulk, I don't think there is any problem. As mayor of Vanliers, driving the local economy, as well as the three western states, is what you have to do as a mayor, and in the process you are not harming the interests of the empire, but working hard for the empire's recovery. Mr. Memnon, anyone who says you are guilty in this regard, he is a sinner himself!"

"It is a felony to frame, slander, and slander imperial officials!"

"If anyone is going to commit a crime, I believe that those tax officials who have committed serious malfeasance are the real criminals!"

The lawyer's explanation made Memnon suddenly realize, and even felt that this was indeed the case, that he had devoted all his personal time to the great construction of Van Liel and the great construction of the west, and that he had offended others for this, but in exchange for the accusations against himself, he refused to accept it! This was a frame-up, a slander, a slander, and he wanted to sue those who poured dirty water on him.

"But!", the lawyer's voice changed, causing Memnon's somewhat active mind to fall into a brief pause, "but there are other situations that you need to consider, the stupid common people do not have any ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and if you get away with it, it will lead to an even more troublesome situation, they think that you have used some dishonorable means to interfere with the justice of justice, and in the end, it is very likely that under the instigation of public opinion, the Imperial Cabinet will send an investigation team to find out everything." ”

"At that point, you're really in big trouble, so you're going to plead guilty, and I think it's a very clear choice, not only to confess, but to portray yourself as a tragic hero. After everything has calmed down, it may be better to file a reconsideration after a while while we are well prepared!"

The lawyer's words made Memnon completely admired, and it was obviously very worthwhile to hire such a lawyer with an annual salary of 260,000 yuan a year, and the money he had been distressed about now did not seem to make him continue to feel distressed.

"It's good, we need to make a plan and then act on that plan. ...... else", Memnon looked at the lawyer with some hesitation, "Can I trust you completely?"

The corners of the lawyer's left mouth were hooked, and the smile made people feel a little indescribable, "Of course, I am a lawyer with professional ethics, and during and after we signed the agreement and were hired, I would never provide any words of conversation between us and the outside world unless there were national security considerations involved." ”

Mennon pursed his lips, "Now there is another question, what about the four executive members of the Western Mining Association? They know some things about me that people shouldn't know, but this is also something that can't be helped......

The lawyer waved his hand to stop Memnon from continuing, "I don't need to know how well they know you, I just need to know what you're going to do and what you want me to do for you?"

The lawyer's confession made Memnon relax a little, he pondered for a moment, looked up and said, "Do you think it's better for them to be alive, or to disappear suddenly?"

"Of course it's better to live out of people's sight!", the lawyer gave his own answer directly.

Meanwhile, in a hotel in Montel on the East Coast, Amp sat on a living room couch in a suite, constantly raising his wrist to look at his watch, and he had made an appointment with Mr. Tuckers to meet here at three o'clock this afternoon. It was already 3:15, but Mr. Tuckers hadn't shown up yet. The main reason why he chose to meet on Doolin's territory was because it was the closest to the Federation's shipping routes, and he was already a dead man, so it was impossible for Doolin to keep an eye on him.

Inviting Mr. Tuckers back to the Empire is in the hope that he will be able to obtain some strong evidence from Mr. Tuckers's hands through some means, which can correct Durin's direct connection with the Great Gold Heist. Only by doing this can we dismantle Doolin's fortress from the inside out. What Doolin showed to people was almost impeccable, at least Amp had no way to attack and capture the fortress from the front, and at the same time, he completely filled in the loopholes that were easy to grasp, and many key witnesses and evidence disappeared without a trace, so that Amp had no way to take Doolin at all.

Durin grew up so fast that Amp thought that this person was not a psychopath, and only a neuropathy could have such a speed of thought growth. But although he grew up quickly, he also had a time when he was young, and that was the Tennell Gold Robbery. He had even seen Doolin's back upstairs in the warehouse, and he was sure that it must be Doolin. There are some loopholes in the Turnier gold robbery, some clues that can be pursued, and this is the price that Durin paid for growing up - he was young.

From the moment he learned of Anna's death, he completely dropped his work and went specifically to deal with Durin, which was also approved by his superiors. His superior, in fact, is not simply the MIA, but another agency. It may have been that Anna's death had provoked him, as well as their superiors, that Amp finally had a chance to get a glimpse of this special institution called the "Knights of the Rose". This institution is very mysterious and powerful, but Amp has no interest in knowing what this institution is like right now, and he is focused on how to get Dulin to do it.

This time, in addition to inviting Mr. Tuckers, he also used his newly acquired powers to "kidnap" the most powerful witness to the gold robbery in Ordo, a bank employee named Alyssa. Amp had already determined Alyssa's importance, and she had definitely seen Durin at the scene on the day of the robbery, but she lied when questioned later. Now is no longer the time to pay attention to procedures, and some extraordinary means may be able to pull down the equally unscrupulous Durin.

In addition to this, there was the manager at the time, as well as a guard on shift, and a cleaner.

Amp, who had lowered his arms, stood up, he walked to the window and looked at the hazy sky outside the window, his expression was as gloomy as the hazy sky!

This is a war that can only be won, not lost!
