Chapter XXIV: Detention

"Then Robin Williams, the ancestor of the family, was not killed by the monster because he could play the violin, but the rest of the crew was killed, and even the 'Goddess' was torn to pieces and sunk into the sea. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ten years later, Robin was discovered by a Spanish merchant ship, and he was adrift alone in a small boat in the Mediterranean, where he was rescued by a kind crew and then returned to England.

Although everyone thought he was insane, he had a few small bags of diamonds and gems hidden close to him, as well as other luxurious jewels, including three of those gold coins.

Of course, the above events were all written by Robin in his diary, but there was no record of the ten years he was imprisoned by the monster, and he refused to say anything when asked.

Everyone thought all this was incredible, and later the family members talked behind their backs, agreeing that the situation at that time was that something dirty must have happened after the fleet found the treasure, and Robin, the only surviving one, deliberately wrote what happened like this in order to avoid suspicion.

Robin returned to England and started out with those jewels, and soon became a new generation of powerful people. He was also awarded the title of Lord of Merit and granted hereditary privilege to the then King George II, Queen Caroline, a 65-carat blue diamond and an egg-sized natural ruby, and was awarded a large amount of money and land.

Robin Williamston was famous, and the mythical adventures recorded in his diary were widely circulated.

Everyone, and even many kings, organized expeditions to the South Atlantic in the hope of finding the treasure-ridden islands described in Robin's diary. But in the end, even Australia and New Zealand were discovered, but there was no trace of the legendary treasure island.

Later, Robin himself organized many expeditions, but not only India, Egypt, but not a single ocean expedition.

In his later years, he gave two of the three gold coins to the Holy Roman Emperor and the Archduke of Austria in exchange for the friendship of the Williams family throughout Europe.

Finally, before his death, he burned all the journals and expedition materials, and clearly stipulated that future members of the family were not allowed to participate in the expedition. Only one gold coin was secretly left as a family heirloom of the Williams family, and only the patriarch and his wife were qualified to know the secret and possess it, and vowed to protect it at all costs, and to hide it from everyone, otherwise the Williams family would be doomed.

Hehe, it seems that today is the end of the disaster, fortunately Mr. Easter is here today, otherwise the Williams family would not exist.

That's all I know, I wonder if Mr. East is satisfied?" said Catherine for nearly ten minutes.

A bizarre story like this, if it had been two months ago, when he heard Catherine's words, Dongfang Chen would definitely regard it as a wonderful adventure story, and he would have been slightly interested in the Atlantis described by the old man named Prosius, and he also believed that this expedition team must have fought for the treasure found occasionally, and the dirty things continued, and in the end, Mr. Robin Williams was a master and successfully returned with the treasure. Dongfang Chen has heard too many stories like this.

But now Dongfang Chen is different, after experiencing so much in just a few months, knowing that all this is definitely not so simple, his heart is itching, and he just wants to pull old Robin out of the grave and ask him in person.

Dongfang Chen was carefully sorting out the useful information in Catherine's words, when there was a knock at the door of the study, and someone said, "Lady Catherine, I am Hamilton, deputy chief of the Reading City Police Department. I am deeply sorry for what happened to you, and I know that you are currently immersed in great grief.

But I still advise you to come out of the shadow of grief for the time being, cooperate with our police, and talk about the process of what happened just now, we still have a few questions for you to learn more about the situation. ”

Catherine walked over and opened the door of the study, a middle-aged man of medium height, with a big beer belly, and bald was standing at the door, seeing Catherine and Dongfang Chen together, he was stunned for a moment, and then said politely: "This must be Mr. Easter, right? I heard that the gangsters who were killed and subdued downstairs were all from your handiwork." Thanks to you today, I didn't expect a doctor of history to have such skills, may I ask which unit in China did you serve in before?"

"Is this an interrogation? Mr. Hamilton, Mr. East is my grandson's classmate, and a distinguished guest of our family, and you have not even conducted a minimum investigation, so it would be rude for you to do so. Catherine said excitedly.

"None of that, thank you very much for your kindness and dinner!, Lady Catherine, I think it's time for us to say goodbye, and I'll give it back to the Williams when I find the answer." You and your family are at risk right now and it is best to apply for special protection from the UK Government.

Believe me, Lady Catherine, and Mr. Hamilton, these bandits who are here today are just children, and I hope you must be mentally prepared. ”

After Dongfang Chen finished speaking, he said to Hamilton: "Mr. Director, in view of my nationality and identity, please forgive me for not saying anything now, I will go to the police station later I will make a few phone calls to my mentor, lawyer and the Chinese Embassy in the United Kingdom, you can also completely listen to these calls, only when the lawyer appointed by me is present, I will say everything about what happened to the William family just now."

And my belongings, I wouldn't let anyone touch them without a lawyer present, let alone hand them over. Now please take me back to the police station, I just need a single room.

Again, Mr. Director, I must properly settle the people who protect the Williams family, as well as the gangster who was caught below, and he is their commander. Well, that's all I can say. ”

After speaking, Dongfang Chen closed his eyes and recuperated, looking like no one cares about it.

Hamilton never expected that Dongfang Chen looked like a nerd on the surface, but he was so familiar with international law and foreign-related case handling procedures, not to mention that with the Williams family testifying, it is impossible to want Dongfang Chen to be a suspect, after all, he is the life-saving benefactor of the family, and the Williams family is relatively famous in Berkshire, and he will not do such a thing if he is shameless.

Mr. Director sighed secretly in his heart, so he had to do what Dongfang Chen said first, and he couldn't run anyway.

Before leaving, Dongfang Chen patted Jason Williams on the shoulder and said, "Jason, you are also a man, and you should also shoulder the responsibility of protecting the whole family." ”

After saying that, he got on the helicopter without looking back, leaving Williams alone with tears on his face in the wind.

After eight hours at the Reading police station, three of Europe's top lawyers and a Chinese official in the UK accompanied Dongfang Chen for questioning.

Dongfang Chen knew that he had nothing to say, and only hid the ancient artifact in the shape of a strange instrument and a gold coin and hid it on his body.

Regarding the section on killing five gangsters armed to the teeth in an instant, Dongfang Chen only said that he had practiced various martial arts such as taekwondo since he was a child, and the problem of marksmanship was also said to have been used to deal with the complex and sinister archaeological environment, and he had specially done military training for a period of time.

In short, I said these things to the police over and over again, and I can match them with what the Williams family said. In the end, the police really couldn't ask any new tricks, so after making a record and signing a bunch of documents, they let Dongfang Chen leave.

Before leaving, Dongfang Chen handed over all his things, even the bandit clothes he was wearing took off and handed them over to the police, and only took his backpack, claiming that this backpack was originally his own, and it was full of personal belongings, and the police couldn't say anything.

Finally, Dongfang Chen said to Director Hamilton: "I hope you can keep my inquiry record and my own situation confidential, because the gangsters ran away and threatened to retaliate against me." I don't care, it's mainly because I'm afraid of endangering my family and friends. ”

Hamilton hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, Dr. Dongfang Chen, the police officers who contacted you are all from the London headquarters, and they will return to London as soon as they finish their work, because there are several similar cases around the world, so all the information in this case will be classified as top secret, and only people of a certain level can apply for access, and the Reading Police Department will not leave a case record."

However, it is possible that the international police will also question you at that time. Also, the Williams family is now tightly guarded, out of contact with the outside world, and Dr. East is reassured. ”

"It's okay, I'm also very willing to do my part, Mr. Director, thank you very much for taking care of me during this time, I wish you all the best, goodbye!"

Unexpectedly, Dongfang Chen's goodbye turned out to be a farewell, and Hamilton also fulfilled his promise to Dongfang Chen with his life!
