Chapter 206 Notes
The light and melodious music echoes in the restaurant, with the rich and fragrant taste, elegant and luxurious environment and home-like service, it is worthy of one of the finest restaurants in Shenghui City, and Director Scott is a frequent customer of this restaurant, and the fine lamb with a bottle of aging is his habit of thunder. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On this day, he was concentrating on tasting the food when he heard a voice: "Excuse me, is there any vacancy here?"
Scott was stunned to find that it was the Marquis of Iron Thorn, Al Edward, who was talking to him. He hurriedly made a gesture of please: "Of course you can, it's my honor." There was no expression on his face, but he was very worried in his heart, and he didn't know what this marquis was looking for him.
"Disturb Director Scott's dinner, it's mine. As he spoke, Al called the waiter and asked for a bottle of good red wine.
"Where, where, I just finished eating, and you didn't bother at all. Just look at the fact that he still has most of the mutton left on his plate, how can he finish it.
Al smiled slightly, and didn't poke it, "I came here today to discuss the case with Director Scott, and I think you also heard about my examination of the body yesterday." ”
"Yes, I didn't expect you to be an expert in criminal names, which really embarrassed our police department. ”
Al leaned back in his chair, poured himself a glass, and unhurriedly told Scott about his findings, of course, the value of the two treasures was obscured by his spring and autumn brushwork.
"On that day, I asked myself again and again, what kind of warrior is alone, and there are these two kinds of treasures that are far apart and valuable at the same time? Thinking about the fact that Shenghui City is a place where goods and goods are connected in all directions, one may come to my mind. ”
"Goose thieves", Al coldly spat out two words, "Only those thieves who specialize in robbing houses and robbing caravans will have treasures from all over the world after robbing caravans from all over the world." ”
"That's right. "If it's a goose thief, it makes sense, these hateful thieves will leave treasures on their bodies after robbery, just in case." He gave a thumbs up, "You're still very knowledgeable." ”
However, Al shook his head, "But it is said that after the great crackdown on bandits a few years ago, almost all the goose thieves in Sunset Plains were wiped out. ”
"It must be some fish that slipped through the net, because they were exterminated by the city guards, and under the revenge of personal gain, they committed the crime of attacking the nobles, which is really unconscionable, and the crime cannot be punished. Scott said indignantly.
"But what about those abrasions on his body?"
"Perhaps...... It was because of his martial arts practice. Scott desperately struggled to find a reasonable explanation.
"And how do you explain that there are other bodies with this kind of abrasions?"
"They may be out of the same village, train together on weekdays, and it is possible to have the same scars. ”
Al nodded, "It can also be explained in this way, but I heard that at that time, Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia was extremely strict, and chased these goose thieves to the point that there was no way to go to heaven and no way to go down, and there was no one survivor in ten, and the goose thieves in the same stockade could run out so much, it was really a blessing of the gods." ", he said with a hint of sarcasm.
Scott was a little confused, he also knew something wasn't right, "Then you mean ......"
"Besides, among these people in black, there are still some people who don't smoke or drink, and such people are really rare among the goose thieves, and they have escaped the pursuit of Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia, so many coincidences, I don't believe it. ”
"So, why don't you think the other way around? This man is not a goose thief, but a city guard. ”
"City Guard?", Scott still had a confused look on his face.
"The city guards who participated in the suppression of bandits. Back then, the bandits were suppressed, and the momentum was huge, but in fact, there were not many real battles, most of the goose thieves fled from the wind, and the real battle was that Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia led a thousand city guards, breaking the nine links that gathered three thousand goose thieves, and this person may be one of the thousand city guards. ”
Scott understood, "Those two treasures are his trophies." ”
"And it should be the trophy of the high-level of the goose thief, this person may be one of the first people to rush in that year. ", Al added.
He stared at Scott and continued, "If it's the City Guard, everything can be explained. Why did this man have many wounds on his body and the others did not? Because there had never been a large-scale battle in the Divine Radiance City for a long time, the soldiers who had followed Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia had knife wounds on their bodies, and the other people probably didn't have as many scars on their bodies as those goose thieves and guards. ”
"These people are extremely white and clean, and they don't have any tattoos, and that's because they are not allowed in the army. They all had abrasions on their bodies, the result of the hard training of the city guards. One of them had calluses on the soles of his feet, and his legs were bent outwards but not noticeably, because he rode a horse, but not a cavalryman, and who in the army walked a lot and rode a horse? It was because he was a scout. ”
"There was also a man who was neat and tidy, and had no bad habits, as if he were a priest. What kind of soldiers in the army would be like this? The answer is that the guards of those generals, and this is the case of the guards of high-ranking generals, but why did such a promising guard officer retire from the army? From the long strips of scars on his back, which are intertwined, it can be inferred that he has violated military law, so he has been beaten with military sticks, and the military law he committed is not light. ”
Al uttered a long list of his reasoning in one breath, then spread his hands, "Director Scott, are you saying I'm right?"
Scott smiled reluctantly, "What a wonderful reasoning, Marquis of Eyre, I really admire you, it seems that it won't be long before this case will be understood." He wiped his sweat, and Al kindly poured him a glass of wine, "You're too nervous, a little drink might calm you down." ”
Scott picked up the glass, looked at Al with a complicated expression, and drank the whole glass of wine, and even choked twice because he drank it so quickly, which was very different from his usual demeanor.
"I'm still a little bit close to understanding, so I still have a question I want to understand. Al continued.
"Oh, what's the problem?"
"That's why I'm here to meet you, Director Scott, why did you send a killer to attack me?"
Al straightened up and asked bluntly, "Of course, we can be more direct, how did you collude with that organization, what kind of organization is that organization, and what are their plots?"
