Chapter 7 Gifts, Compromises?

Chapter 7 Gifts?

Vancouver is one of the most livable cities in the world, there are many nobles and royal heirs settled here, the population of Maple Leaf County is limited, the area is vast, and there is no powerful resistance group involved, so after the outbreak of wars in Asia, Europe and Africa, many powerful people have chosen to move here, most of them have properties all over the world, some already have villas and even estates in Vancouver, while others can find a good place to live just by signing a few more checks

But not so long ago, a disturbing mystery took place in the city

That is the bizarre death of the third prince Victor Wittstock, the cause of his death was actually when he was fishing on a yacht alone, accidentally fell into the sea and drowned, when his body was found, His Royal Highness was obviously dead, completely brain dead, there is no possibility of rescue

His death was very strange, and could only be explained by the fact that his yacht was in a state of flameout, and he was the only one on board, and the entire right leg of the corpse was wrapped in a mess of fishing line, and Victor's fat body was dragged by a fishing rod like a big hooked fish, so that it did not sink to the bottom of the sea

The investigation after the incident was very fast and thorough, and the police were directly kicked out and taken over, but the result still came to the conclusion of "accident", because they really couldn't find any traces of murder, even if they analyzed the entire ship inch by inch, checked every fingerprint, and even the DNA of every hair that could be found, they couldn't find the slightest useful clue

If you have to say that it wasn't an accident, then ...... At least from the evidentiary level, there are only two possibilities: first, that His Royal Highness the Third Prince committed suicide, and second, that is, the so-called complete crime

Even if these two assumptions are true, the team in charge of the investigation of the case faces the same problem, that is, if the murderer cannot be found, if it is a suicide, what about a complete crime? With the technology of today's world, and the existence of such a group of capable people, a perfect murder is not impossible to achieve, but the problem is that since the complete crime is successfully achieved, it means the victory of the murderer, because an important condition for a complete crime is that the murderer cannot be found, or even if he admits to murder, or even arrogantly tells the modus operandi, you will not find any evidence to accuse him except a confession

Therefore, the investigation team chose the conclusion of "accident", in fact, it is not difficult to choose, saying "suicide" is a scandal, which will implicate many things, and saying "complete crime" means admitting the existence of the murderer, but there is nothing they can do, and there is only one way left

So, these buddies were planted, and the collective demotion and dissolution and the governor of Vancouver was also unlucky, but he resigned on his own initiative very well, and under the persuasion of many colleagues, he was finally transferred to the municipal office of a second- and third-tier city as the deputy director of the office

Not to mention that it is not easy to be an official in these years, but anyone who is ruthless and courageous and knowledgeable will take on a few projects that destroy the environment and endanger the people's livelihood, or make a few big projects that look good and have enough oil and water to make some political achievements, as long as you are promoted and changed to a place of employment before the problem is exposed, it has nothing to do with you if the bridge collapses, the embankment collapses, the river stinks, and the people die after a few years

If you want to do nothing, you'd better find a fortune teller to look at feng shui, but don't catch up with any natural disasters**, such as train derailment, high-rise fire, road collapse, etc., in case there is a death toll of more than thirty-five, or there are nobles and royal families who suffer misfortune, you can do it yourself

Of course, there is another kind of difficult thing to do - a good cadre who serves the people, that is, the kind that does not even dare to accept a cigarette, never pats the leader's ass, relatives do not help when they ask for errands, children go to ordinary schools, wives can't even play mahjong, there is no lover, and secretaries all invite men, but such officials generally can't be promoted to the position of governor, don't mention it

All in all, when a big person dies, even if no one can be found to be responsible, someone will be forced to take responsibility for it, and when a small person dies, even if he breaks the iron shoes, he may not be able to find a place to reason

The world shouldn't be like this, it wasn't like it was in the past, I don't know why it's like that now

............

July 13, 2101, Maple Leaf County, Vancouver

In the mansion that originally belonged to Victor, the tea fairy was lying in a rocking chair, closing his eyes and listening to an old song

In all fairness, the melody of that song is not pretty, the rhythm is simple, and there are three vulgar elements in the lyrics, which if you have to classify it, it is very much like a comedy or a spoof interlude

"I want to leave my hometown, wander alone, the friends of the poor and the lowly can not be forgotten, the friendship is long and long, there is no pain, there is no sorrow, sitting alone does not hesitate, the chickens and dogs hear each other, the strangers go to all directions, people gradually go, the farther away from home, don't look back, where do I want to go, where can I be liberated? My Fair Lady Makes a Trip, Let Me Hug Left and Right, There is a confidant on the road ahead, and the whole world is my hometown."

When such a song is played from a set of expensive luxury sound systems and looped as a single song, it is a crime

What is puzzling is that the tea fairy's favorite song is this one, but anyone who has had some contact with him would never have imagined that there would be such a thing, and ordinary people would guess that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince should love to listen to symphonies or love songs full of literary style, or be a lover of British rock?

In fact, they are all wrong, the tea fairy is almost a sonic deafness with incomplete tones, his style will definitely not be higher than any vassal and elegant young man of the same age in any corner of the world, he rarely has time to listen to songs, the only song he likes to listen to is this one, and this is the only song he can sing, and can sing a song with accurate tones Of course, he has never sung it in front of others

"Your Highness" a maid knocked twice on the door of the hidden room, stood at the door and said, "There is a guest asking to see"

Before these five words could be fully uttered from the other party's mouth, the tea fairy's brain made a series of inferences like a conditioned reflex

"How many people?" Cha Xian still closed his eyes and casually turned off the music with the remote control

"Just one" The maid paused: "It's a young lady"

The tea fairy opened his eyes and asked a very inexplicable question: "Isn't it beautiful?"

What do you mean? Aren't you ugly and you don't see you?" The maid said in her heart, looked up at His Royal Highness, and just wanted to open her mouth to answer, but the tea fairy said again: "I think I know the answer."

He sat up and walked over to the maid: "I've learned from the facial scanning system that she's royal"

The maid was a little stunned, but nodded her head

The tea fairy knew that these domestic servants who originally served Victor were somewhat snobbish, if it was a civilian, they would not report it, maybe the security guards at the door would take the opportunity to do some things like searching and rubbing oil, but if they were visitors with identity, these people would definitely not dare to offend, they must be called "guests" in a proper manner, and hurriedly came in to report, nodding their heads, for fear of offending some great characters

"'Please' to come to the reception room" Cha Xian added an accent to the word "invite", hinting at the importance of this visitor

The maid answered and went out

A few minutes later, the tea fairy was already sitting in the reception room with the visiting young lady

He broke away from everyone, there was a pot of freshly brewed black tea on the table, poured a cup for the lady, and then poured another cup for himself, and the tea fairy said, "Miss Jiang Yun is right?"

Jiang Yun's face was pale, her eyes were blank, there was no blood on her lips and cheeks, and she didn't react when she heard her name, she just slowly turned her face, looked at the tea fairy, and then took out a mobile phone from the handbag she was carrying, and put it on the table in front of the two of them

The phone was nothing special, at least it didn't look like it biting, it didn't explode suddenly, and the glass bottle seemed to be a perfume bottle, but the liquid inside was a strange pale blue

The tea fairy knew Tianyi's trick, he picked up the mobile phone on the table, opened it and saw an unread message with few numbers: press the dial button 1 to find me

The tea fairy glanced at Jiang Yun, but the other party was still the same, like a puppet that couldn't move: "Is it okay?" Out of upbringing, the tea fairy still asked before calling, but still didn't get any response

"That's good" At this time, Cha Xian confirmed at least one thing His post-mortem analysis of the Longjun incident was that Jiang Yun should have joined the Reverse Cross, although I don't know why this woman is a royal family and wants to do this, but the conclusions that can be deduced are nothing more than that, either she is ideologically opposed to the Empire, or she is mentally controlled, and there is a very small possibility that she fell in love with a certain male member of the Reverse Cross, of course, the probability is quite low Judging from the current situation, it is basically certain that she is controlled

Cha Xian pressed the dial button 1 on the mobile phone, and it was connected after about three or four rings, and the person who answered the phone was really Tianyi

"Which one?" Tianyi asked, the old man's phone on the desk of the bookstore didn't have the caller ID function at all, unless it was calculated that someone would call at a certain time, generally Tianyi would ask who the other party was first

When the tea fairy talked to him, he naturally got straight to the point and went straight to the point: "People are here with me, what is in that bottle?"

Tianyi heard his voice and knew his identity: "Oh, it's you, how is the injury?" Tianyi's behavior, for example, is like A pushing B off a cliff, but B was lucky not to die, and when the two met many years later, A asked B very indifferently, how are you doing lately?

"What's in the bottle?" the tea fairy ignored Tianyi's words and repeated his own question

"Neutralizer" He replied with a remark: "The neutralizer of the Type 77 Zombie Elixir"

The tea fairy understood in an instant, and he continued: "Jiang Yun is controlled by this potion you said?"

"That's right, in fact, after Longjun's plan, she is useless, I locked her up, I want to observe the follow-up drug reaction of Type 77, how long will it take to fail or kill the receptor, and the result has not been invalidated yet, and she is not dead, so I want to just let her go, by the way, let her send you a mobile phone" Tianyi said: "Oh, by the way, after detoxification, her original personality will be restored, but the memory of being controlled during this period will be retained, although she has not been violated or harmed in any way, but ...... She's been in a zombie state, and she's hurt someone, which should be an unpleasant memory for a woman."

The tea fairy's train of thought could closely follow Tianyi's every word, and he immediately said, "Was Li Wei killed by her...... The focus of this sentence is still behind: "Can I think so, you now have a drug that can enhance the physique of ordinary people to a certain extent, and turn it into a murderous weapon without thoughts and obeying words."

"You can say that," said Tianyi

"How did you establish the command mechanism...... Sounds, smells, psychological cues?" the tea fairy asked

"It doesn't matter, even if I mass-produce this medicine to create an army, it will be just a group of ordinary people with enhanced physical fitness, whose military literacy and adaptability are far inferior to the same number of regular troops, they just use the knowledge in their own brains to effectively carry out my orders, but they are not soldiers themselves."

Cha Xian said: "You sent Jiang Yun to me and guided me to think about the military aspect, in fact, you wanted me to ignore the real horror of this drug...... If you give an order like this, such as 'pretend not to be controlled and live as usual', then you have a perfect pawn that can be activated at any time, and until you wake up, the controlled person has no flaws, they are just using their original memories and bodies, 'as usual', to live and lurk...... As long as the drug does not fail, it will be in this state until death."

"Huh...... You've really made progress," Tianyi said with a smile

"You use this tone to praise me, it can't help but seem too arrogant" Tea Fairy said: "I have always respected my opponent"

Tianyi: "Okay, I apologize, but don't be in a hurry, because I have another thing to tell you that will make you angry, but at the same time can reassure you" He laughed: "Type 77 is not completely without side effects"

Hearing this, the tea fairy couldn't help but set his eyes on Jiang Yun

Tianyi continued: "It should be impossible to create a latent spy army after mass production, because this experimental object in front of you has become a mute, and I don't know how long it will take to produce the effect, anyway, I only found out before sending her out this time, I tried to order her to speak, but she couldn't make a single sound, and I also asked a very good doctor to check her vocal cords, but no lesions were found, I can only think that the drug damaged some part of her nervous system, causing her to lose the ability to speak"

Cha Xian looked at Jiang Yun, was silent for a few seconds, controlled his anger, and replied in the same tone: "I see, since there are such side effects, then I am indeed a lot more relieved" He immediately changed the topic: "Let's talk about business...... You're going to ask her to bring your phone, so you see and smell it."

"Uh-huh...... After reading it, Tianyi's voice sounded happier than just now: "My condition is that your third emperor brother 'withdraw from the competition for the heir to the throne', but you have done it thoroughly, not only completed, but also permanently."

Ay...... You are really ruthless, with your ability, it should not be difficult to set up a game, let him jump into a trap, and defeat him politically? Unexpectedly, you made him a dead man, which is a half-brother......

The tea fairy listened to the other party's playful tone, and when he replied, he was still as calm as water: "My approach is different from what you imagined, which makes you feel a little weak, right?"

On the other side of the phone, there was suddenly silence

The tea fairy said again, "What do you think...... Am I really merciful, just, and orderly? Maybe I'm performing?"

Tianyi spoke again, accompanied by morbid, trivial laughter, and a tone that exuded excitement: "Since you were a child, has it been a show for your whole life?"

"What? do you think I can't do it, or can't you do it yourself?" asked the tea fairy coldly

Tianyi laughed, he didn't answer this question, and the tea fairy also knew that this was not a problem, the two tacitly knew it, in fact, neither of them believed the words of the other tea fairy, it may not be a bluff, Tianyi's laughter and the silence just now were very likely just pretending

"Very well, you did a good job in this game, so, I want to ask, which hostage do you want me to release?" Tianyi asked

The tea fairy took a sip of tea in a hurry, and the delay of these few seconds may be to think, or it may just be to show that he is not in a hurry: "Do you still need to ask this question? I originally thought that after you saw it, you would directly release a hostage and ask him to deliver a letter to me."

"Hmph...... Sure enough, it's the waiter, in other words, if I let him go, you will immediately take this opportunity to turn the court upside down?"

"Isn't that what you want?" Cha Xian replied, "You want me to be the emperor, don't you?" Then, I need to break the current pattern of Tiandu and reorganize the situation in my favor, and you must cooperate with me when necessary."

"Are you talking to me about cooperation?" Tianyi smiled and said, "I heard you right?"

"You can take this as an order from the future emperor"

"Joke, the current emperor can't order me"

"Refusal is not the attitude that a gamer should have," Cha Xian said

Tianyi: "Okay, I'll let go of the waiter, not only will I release the waiter, but I'll also hand over the long tassel to you"

"Hostages don't make sense to you anymore, do they?"

"Now that you're inviting me in, what's the use of me being hostage?"

The tea fairy sneered: "Hmph...... Then I'll leave this phone behind."

"Yes, but I've been very busy lately, unless you have a whim and are ready to hang yourself at home, don't call" Tianyi

"Don't worry, I'm also very busy, what I have to do may not be easier than you," Cha Xian said, pressed the hang up button, and ended the call

He looked at Jiang Yun beside him, his expression was very complicated, there was a lot of sympathy and hesitation in his eyes After looking at it for a long time, the tea fairy sighed and fed the bottle of neutralizer into her mouth......
