Just a few hours later, news of Williams being taken away by the detective team spread, and various theories circulated. Some people say that he is too high-profile and has offended many people, and the finger is pointed at Zhang Tianlin, who has just been promoted to a member of the council; Some people say that during the years he controlled the Military Academy, he was arrogant and unreasonable, insisted on going his own way for his own desires, and suppressed his subordinates everywhere; Some people say that he embezzled military funds for his own selfish desires......

No matter what kind of remarks circulated in the outside world, Zhang Tianlin was the most surprised, and of course, the other members of the "cautious faction" were also inexplicably excited.

Yes, after so many years, the "expansionists" have finally been defeated, and now it is the peak moment of the "cautious faction", if Williams has an accident at this time, it is tantamount to announcing that the "expansionists" are not far from disintegrating.

Jingle Bell ......

"Zhou Ran, what's the matter?" Zhang Tianlin picked up his mobile phone and said.

"You've heard that Williams was taken away by Liu Xiangshan?" Zhou Ran said, not hiding the excitement in his words at all.

"Well, I've heard about that." Zhang Tianlin's calm answer surprised Zhou Ran.

"That'...... Do you have anything to do with it? ”

"Hehe, you said I arranged it?"

"That's not what I meant." Zhou Ran replied embarrassedly, "Now the outside world is spreading ......"

Zhang Tianlin did hear a lot of such rumors, saying that as soon as he was promoted to a member of the council, he began to suppress his old opponent and did such a despicable act......

Of course, Zhang Tianlin has a clear conscience and doesn't care about these statements at all. In other words, even if you really want to, you won't choose this time, it doesn't fit your style.

"Let them pass it on, I, Zhang Tianlin, am not that kind of despicable villain, and you don't have to pay too much attention to it. By the way," Zhang Tianlin instructed Zhou Ran, "Pay more attention to Zheng Dashen recently and see if he has any abnormal behavior." ”

"Zheng Dashen?" Zhou Ran asked puzzled.

"Do you think, the boss has been arrested, won't the younger brother do something?" Zhang Tianlin said with a smile.

"Okay, I get ......"

However, Zhang Tianlin is indeed very puzzled, in recent months, the entire coalition government has been busy dealing with the alien spacecraft incident, and Williams has been in Antarctica, what will he do? Even if Williams commits a crime, Pei Qing, as a good friend, will not let Liu Xiangshan take him away in front of everyone!

Zhang Tianlin understood after pondering slightly, Pei Qing didn't know about the arrest of Williams, and most of it was Liu Xiangshan's private actions. However, it is strange that Williams would obediently cooperate, which is not in line with his style.

He originally wanted to call Pei Qing to inquire, but then after thinking about it, even he knew about it, and Pei Qing naturally knew about it a long time ago, so he gave up.

......

After returning to the detective office, Liu Xiangshan did not immediately interrogate Williams, but said politely: "Dean Williams, I first wronged you to stay with us for one night, and we will talk again tomorrow." ”

Williams smiled and said disapprerovingly: "No need, go directly to the inquiry room, I'm very sober now!" You don't want to waste my time, you know? ”

Anyone who hears such words may be shocked, after all, he is the president of the Military Academy, and he has fame and power that ordinary people cannot reach. However, Liu Xiangshan is still full of confidence.

"Since you've said so, let's talk." Liu Xiangshan said, "Xiao Zhang, pour a glass of water." ”

"Captain Liu, let's start."

"Okay." Liu Xiangshan opened a folder unhurriedly, glanced at it twice, and said, "I brought you here this time mainly to learn about the collective suicide of the astronauts of the 'Speed of Light' spacecraft. ”

Hearing the words "astronauts committed suicide en masse", Williams just raised his head and glanced at Liu Xiangshan opposite, but there was no change on his face.

"Oh? This was a long time ago, does it have anything to do with me? ”

"Dean Williams, I really ask from the bottom of my heart, did they really commit suicide en masse?" Liu Xiangshan stared at him and didn't blink for more than ten seconds.

"Hehe," Williams smiled, "I'm afraid you know this question better than me, Captain Liu." ”

"Indeed, this case was the one I investigated at the time, and the evidence showed that they did commit suicide."

"That's amazing," Williams said, "and Captain Liu's question is obviously excessive." ”

"Actually, before the case was closed, I always had a question, but this question seemed to be insignificant. Thinking about it now, it is the crux of the matter. ”

Williams pondered for a moment and asked, "Can you talk about this question?" ”

"If you're willing to listen." Liu Xiangshan said with a smile.

"It's all here, you have to get something, what do you say?"

"Haha, the dean is really open-minded!" Liu Xiangshan said with a smile, "According to normal logic and past experience, if several people agree to commit collective suicide, most of them will choose the same place and end their lives in the same way, right?" ”

"Well, that makes sense."

"However, at that time, the astronauts were all isolated and died at different times," Liu Xiangshan said as he looked through the records, "Several people died five to ten minutes apart, but they committed suicide in the same way, how did this happen?" ”

Williams shook his head, and made a puzzled gesture, saying, "You Captain Liu are experts in this area, and even you can't solve the doubts, how can I, a layman, explain it?" ”

Indeed, this is the core question of this case, and Liu Xiangshan keeps asking himself, why didn't he continue to investigate it at that time?

"Not necessarily."

After speaking, Liu Xiangshan took out a piece of paper that he had just pulled out of the folder and slowly pushed it in front of Williams. This is a photocopy, with the title clearly written "Report Letter".

Williams quickly scanned the content of the letter, his face still did not change, perhaps, his heart has been turbulent, but the performance is still unfazed.

"Captain Liu, this is an anonymous report letter, do you believe what is said here?" Williams said with a look of disbelief as a mocking smile slowly appeared.

Liu Xiangshan tried his best to restrain his emotions and warned himself to be calm, just like the old fox in front of him, he was not alarmed.

"Haha, Dean Williams, I have to say that the big people who have experienced the storm will really be calm at all times."

"What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting, just say it."

"Captain Liu, I don't have time to joke with you, this is just an anonymous letter, according to the laws of the coalition government, you have no right to arrest me. Secondly, do you know the relationship between your director and me? ”

"Oh, of course I know."

When Liu Xiangshan said this, although he was very calm, his face showed a short-term weakness, how could such an expression escape Williams's eyes? At the same time, it was Liu Xiangshan's expression that exposed a fact: the arrest warrant in Liu Xiangshan's hand was fake.

"I dare to say that Pei Qing doesn't know about this matter, and besides, the arrest warrant in your hand is also fake, do you want to show it to me?"

Liu Xiangshan was suddenly startled, and couldn't help but feel empty, he didn't expect to be recognized by him so quickly.

"Actually, Captain Liu," Williams suddenly slowed down, a sign that he had the initiative, "even if what this letter says is true, you have to come up with evidence, what about the evidence?" ”

Liu Xiangshan was silent, just staring at him silently.

Seeing this, Williams took a sip from the water glass, carefully tasting the boiled water without any taste.

"It's a little cold......"

When Liu Xiangshan heard him say this, he hurriedly shouted: "Xiao Zhang, what's the matter, hurry up and change the cup to a hot one!" ”

Just when Xiao Zhang aggrievedly put a cup of hot water in front of Williams, Liu Xiangshan said with a smile: "Dean Williams, don't think about it, in fact, I invited you over this time......

Before he finished speaking, a cry came from outside the door that made Liu Xiangshan have a headache: "What about Liu Xiangshan?" ”

"Captain he ......"

"Say!"

Then, with a "bang", the door of the inquiry room was kicked open.

"Liu Xiangshan, what the hell are you doing!" Obviously, Pei Qing was very angry, "You tell me clearly, what the hell is going on!" ”

When Liu Xiangshan saw the director, he immediately wilted, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Director, listen to my explanation......"

"I don't listen to your bullshit!"

Liu Xiangshan opened his mouth, but still didn't say it.

"Speak!" Pei Qing said angrily.

Liu Xiangshan wondered in his heart, you first asked me what was going on, and then you didn't listen to my explanation, and now let me talk again, are you angry!

Seeing that Liu Xiangshan didn't speak, Pei Qing turned to Williams and said, "Dean Williams, I'm really sorry, my subordinates are reckless, please forgive me." ”

Williams stood up and said with a smile: "Director Pei, don't put out the fire, Captain Liu didn't treat me badly, just invited me to come over and have a casual chat." ”

Hearing this, not only Pei Qing was surprised, but even Liu Xiangshan was very puzzled, obviously he forced him to come over, why did he speak for me again at this time?

"Really?"

"Of course, you see, Captain Liu takes good care of me, and the water is cold and immediately heats up." Williams said, picking up the glass and taking another sip.

"Is it true?" This sentence was asked to Liu Xiangshan.

"Did you listen to me again?" Liu Xiangshan said with a hippie smile.

"Be serious!"

"Dean Williams said it, I just invited him to come over and have a casual chat, there is no other meaning......" Liu Xiangshan said with a humble heart.

"You can talk about anything in Dean Williams' office, there's no need to be so ......" Pei Qing said and glanced around, the meaning was self-evident.

"Actually, it's not ......."

Without waiting for Liu Xiangshan to finish speaking, Pei Qing picked up the anonymous letter and read it cursoryly.

"Anonymous letters, or accusations of Williams killing, you dare to do that without any evidence?" Pei Qing reprimanded harshly.

"Lao Pei, it's not as serious as you say." Williams said.

However, Pei Qing didn't let him continue, but picked up another piece of paper.

"I knew that you kid would definitely come to this hand, and the arrest warrant would dare to be fake!"

Liu Xiangshan was completely wilted, and turned on the cheeky mode: "Ah, Director, you are really a god, nothing can escape your eyes." I'm not afraid I won't be able to invite Dean Williams......

"Okay, don't be poor, hurry up and apologize to the dean!"

"No!" Williams hurriedly said.

"Dean Williams, I apologize for not thinking things through." Liu Xiangshan said and bowed.

"Ahh

In this way, after Liu Xiangshan was reprimanded, Williams was invited into the office by Pei Qing, and the two chatted for a while before leaving. Although he did not get any useful information, Liu Xiangshan had a hunch that Williams was related to this case, and he would continue to follow this clue.
