Chapter Ninety-Eight: Rie's Decision
The old man's proposal surprised Riya, whether it was a nursing home or a research institute, it was a place that paid attention to seniority, and any personnel transfer could not be decided with just a fluttering sentence, everything had to be done according to the regulations. Although Donald had only been offered the position of acting dean, Ria knew that this was already an exception for the Senate.
If it weren't for this incident, no matter how strong Donald is, it will take at least twenty years to get through.
Just like Ria himself, his case-handling ability is excellent, but even if he has the opportunity to enter Sa Lanxing, he is only as a law enforcer.
If he wants to get through, it will take a long time.
In the entire civilization, probably the only exception is Commander Orland, who is like a plug-in, all the way to the top.
This matter also requires Ria to realize that the old man's words are really not alarmist, and the Senate is willing to make such a compromise for this reason, which shows that the Sa Lan civilization is really in crisis.
Although the current surface is calm and the waves are not clear, but secretly, the dark tide must have been turbulent.
There is also the whereabouts of the Imperial fleet, although it is not widely known, but as one of the main focuses of citizens, the destination of their expedition is not a secret.
But in the past, they also used to go back and forth to the silver heart, so this time, no one thought deeper.
At this moment, Riya's nimble brain unconsciously connected the matter of Sa Lanxing with the purpose of the Imperial fleet's trip.
At such a critical moment, what is the purpose of the Imperial fleet's journey to the Silver Heart?
Ria thought about it, but asked the question in her mind.
"So, what was the purpose of the fleet led by the commander to the Silver Heart a few days ago?"
The old man gave Ria a surprised look, as if he didn't expect him to be able to connect the two things so quickly.
He thought for a moment and said, "Riya, there are some things that you shouldn't know right now. ”
"I see what you mean, but can you tell me if their trip to Silver Heart has something to do with it?" Ria was not a person without measure, and he knew that it was inappropriate to ask this question at this time, but the news he had learned was so appalling that it was impossible for anyone to be calm when they knew that their homeland was in a situation where it could be destroyed at any time, right?
Ria is also a man of flesh and blood, who longs to know all the truth, and wants to do his part to improve their situation.
But he was doomed to disappointment, and the old man shook his head firmly: "Ria, I can't tell you the answer. ”
Ria replied in disappointment, getting this answer was something he expected, and he only asked the question with a bit of luck.
Long after the old man left, Ria locked herself in her workshop, where she didn't move.
His assistant stood a little nervously outside the workshop until a call came from inside.
The assistant answered and went in, and he heard Ria instruct: "Sort out the information on this case and submit it to the Interstellar Court in two days." ”
When the assistant heard the news, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The information about this case has been sorted out, and I will send it to you for review." ”
Ria gave him a deep look and nodded.
Until a prompt sounded in his light brain, he opened the information sent by his assistant, looked at it carefully, and found no problem.
Only then did he close his light brain: "I remember, as soon as you entered the Law Enforcement Bureau, you followed me, and it has been ten years now. ”
Riya's words puzzled the assistant, who couldn't understand why Ria had suddenly brought up the topic.
But the habit he had developed over the years had left him with no time to think about it, and he had already answered Ria's question: "You're right, it's going to be ten years soon." ”
"As soon as the ten-year period expires, you can obtain the qualification of a law enforcer and handle cases independently."
"Your Excellency, I don't want to leave you, I just want to continue to be your assistant."
Ria smiled and said, "When I was your age, I didn't think much like you, and at that time, I thought about surviving the past ten years early and becoming a real law enforcer. ”
Riya's attitude made the assistant a little flustered: "Your Excellency, I ......"
"Alright, there you go." Ria waved her hand and motioned for her assistant to go out.
But the assistant's feet were like nailed to the ground, and he couldn't move away.
"Your Excellency, you know everything, don't you?" Since a few days ago, Riya's attitude towards him has been completely different, he is not unaware, but he is still holding on to that kind of luck, thinking that it is his delusion.
It wasn't until today, that Riya's words to him finally made him realize that he was thinking too simply.
"What should I know?"
"Your Excellency, I'm sorry, that subordinate of Sisoka, I killed ......" The assistant lowered his head and said in a muffled voice.
"Why are you doing that?" Even though Ria had already guessed the real culprit, it was still a little difficult for Ria to accept it when she heard him admit it herself.
"That day I received a mysterious email, the email said that Hisoka's case is very wide-ranging, if you continue to investigate, you will be in danger of your life......"
"Why would you believe such an email from an unknown source?"
"Your Excellency, I have been following you for nearly ten years, and I have learned more or less about your ability to handle cases, and the email seems to be of unknown origin, but there are many clues in it that make me believe in the authenticity of the email......"
He knows Ria's character very well, and as long as there is a clue, he will persevere in investigating it. Therefore, even if he told Riya about the email, it could not discourage Riya's determination to continue investigating.
The only way to get him out of the case is to die without proof.
Ria listened to the assistant's story and was silent for a long time, knowing that if it wasn't for the assistant who took the risk to kill that person this time, he might have found more clues along the way.
When the time comes, it will only muddy the waters even more.
"No wonder, you have repeatedly urged me to close the case as soon as possible."
"I just don't know, who is the person who sent the email? Starnet's privacy protection is too tight, and I can't find a loophole to trace the identity of the other party. ”
"I'm afraid it's because of this that the other party dares to send you an email directly."
Ria was ambivalent about his assistants, and it stands to reason was his decisiveness that saved them all. The one who died was also innocent. Judging from his current crimes, he may not be able to get the death penalty, but as long as the truth of that matter is revealed, what awaits him is a dead end.
Therefore, Ria did not feel sorry for the death of that person.
But Ria always put himself in the position of a law enforcer, knowing full well that he was not a judge and could not convict criminals.
His assistant's practice of killing people without permission was unacceptable to Ria.
"After this incident, I will help you apply for the assessment of law enforcers, I believe that with your ability, there is no problem in passing the assessment......"
Even if he didn't agree with his assistant's philosophy, Ria didn't deprive him of his qualifications to become an enforcer, and he wanted to leave everything to the examiner.
The Sa Lan civilization has a mature assessment system, and whether a person can become a law enforcer or not is not determined by him, nor by any other person, but by the assessment system.
