Chapter 41: The Price
"Take me to see Zhu Tong." The tone was as cold as ice, and the chill in his eyes made Dongkang lower his head, the majestic momentum of being in a high position for a long time could not be pretended, nor could they be able to fight at this level, so they could only honestly turn to one side, raise their hands to make a respectful petition, and then lead the way in front of their heads, leading Du Peng towards the office area.
It was already an hour later for Dupont to come back, Vito stood behind everyone and looked at Dupon, there was no expression on his face, he couldn't tell whether he was angry or happy, he stepped out, walked to the door of everyone, coughed softly, to show attention, at the same time, his face showed a sad expression, and his voice said sadly: "Colleagues, friends, citizens of the republic, not long ago, there was an extremely bad assassination in our parliament building, Our esteemed and respected Senator Heman was assassinated, this is an extremely despicable political conspiracy, our enemies are hiding in dark corners, plotting to destroy the republic established by countless ancestors and martyrs like Heman with blood, we will never allow such a thing to happen, we must give justice to the dead, just now I had urgent consultations with Speaker Zhu Tong and Commander Nan Ze, reached a consensus, and unanimously agreed to set up a special investigation team, with Zuo Tu as the team leader and Bahrain as the deputy team leader, In the investigation of He-Man's assassination, no matter who is involved in the case or what shady scenes there are, it must be investigated to the end and the facts must be made public. ”
His speech ushered in a round of applause, but behind the applause was more people secretly muttering, this was already the tip of the needle just now, and it was almost a short battle, but in a blink of an eye, it disappeared, the two sides reached a consensus, and they joined forces to carry out action, which really has to be admirable, this is politics, so that you can never see what will happen next.
The left disciple took Lennon to follow Bahrain to take over the relevant evidence and audio-visual materials collected at the scene, these evidence is too crucial, because with all the audio-visual materials, it is possible to deduce the specific time when the surveillance system was destroyed, and even find relevant suspects from it. After mastering this, they took Vito to the second scene, that is, the place where Vito was shot, and the guards who were chasing the murderer at that time were also brought to the scene, confirming the situation, seeing someone shooting at Vito 1000, and also checking the traces left by the photon beam shooting against the wall.
All this evidence was brought together, and then after the analysis of all the people in the task force, it was determined that a gunman sneaked into the lounge through the window of the bathroom at the back of the lounge, and when Dupon entered the lounge, he shot and killed Seaman, and then evacuated the same way, in the process of evacuation, he encountered Vito 1000 who returned from the square, and saw him in a police uniform, which made the gunman worry that he would be unfavorable to him, provide clues for the police, and identify himself, so he moved the killing machine, intending to kill Vito 1000, in the process, The guards who were chasing the killer arrived, scaring the gunman away, and Vito 1000 escaped.
The analysis of the case confirmed a problem, that is, the suspicion of Du Pong was ruled out and it was determined that he was innocent, which made everyone in Du Pong's family breathe a sigh of relief, after all, the leaders of the faction cannot be damaged, because the leaders are the core of a faction of political forces, their leaders and commanders, and once he fails, then this political faction may quickly collapse and dissolve.
The report of the task force was delivered to Zhu Tong and Du Peng, and both sides agreed on such a preliminary conclusion, after all, the case is still in the process of being solved, and the final result will still take time. With such an outcome, Dupont was able to leave the Houses of Parliament, including the MPs and their entourage.
"Bureau, you... What did you promise him? Jian Fan's tone was very hesitant, but he still asked, because he knew that such a compromise must have a price, and he couldn't wait to return to the headquarters building before asking, so he opened his mouth on the way back.
Du Peng first pursed his lips, his eyes wandered, revealing unwillingness, with annoyance and anger, and then he said unwillingly: "Two seats for parliament." ”
Jian Fan was slightly stunned, and sighed in his heart; Sure enough, the price is not small. For Dupont's political group, the price would have been devastating.
"Originally, he was strong and I was weak, this time on his territory, he was almost framed, and then suffered a catastrophe, now this result, two seats, it is worth it, in fact, Zhu Tong should not want to kill you all, but just want to weaken the power in your hands, continue to press you, and have the upper hand, he is very satisfied, so he should forbear, as long as there is a breath, sooner or later it will be taken back, and the gentleman will take revenge, ten years is not too late." Jian Fan saw Du Peng's unwillingness and said with relief.
Du Peng's eyes jumped twice, nodded his head a few times, and muttered in his mouth: "Yes, sooner or later, I will take him back, sooner or later I will drive him off the stage, it will definitely be." ”
All this, Vito saw in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, and he unconsciously thought of a sentence in a book he had read: Save people and lose land, people and land will survive, save land and lose people, people and land will be lost. When it's time to bow your head, you must learn to bow your head, as long as you are there, everything has a chance to turn around.
Turning back to the case itself, Du Pong asked: "Zuo disciple, just now the system compared the portraits, but no results were found, and the blockade and search of various districts were not found, and Vito 1000 guessed that it was possible that he was smuggled in from outside the state, what do you think?" ”
Zuo Tu glanced up at Vito, with appreciation in his eyes: "Well, his guess is very bold, of course there is this possibility, first of all, the synthetic biological people in our city-state did not find the motif in the portrait, and the identity information of all natural persons in the city-state has entered the system information, and it can be said that there is no omission, so since Vito 1000 described, Smith's restored portrait did not find out the result in the system, then there is only such a possibility, the gunman came to the outside of the state, and the clues we pursued should start from this aspect, And as the main direction of pursuit. ”
Hearing Lao Jiu, who he had always trusted, say this, Du Pong couldn't help but look at Vito with appreciation, he nodded and said: "Okay, you just follow your ideas, in short, you must find a way to catch this damn gunman, who is he responsible for?" Why assassinate He-Man at this time? I had just made a deal with He-Man, but I didn't know that before it could be implemented, he was killed, and I lost a lot of help in the campaign. ”
As soon as he said this, Vito remembered the last time he overheard it outside Dupoon's office, and he guessed that the deal Dupon was talking about that time.
