Cosma Empire

The military vehicles stopped at the square in the city center unimpeded all the way. After the military control, the military requisitioned two commercial buildings around the square as a temporary headquarters to facilitate the control of the entire city.

Memnon followed the two soldiers to a room on the second floor, but he frowned and didn't go in.

"Your Excellency Mayor, why don't you come in?" Lieutenant Mary stood in the room and looked at him. Memnon already knew the female officer's name when they were on the road, she was called Mary.

"Are you going to interrogate me? Or do you want me to cooperate?" Memnon chuckled a few times, and the laughter was filled with a kind of sarcasm. In the room in front of him, there was no sofa, no coffee table, no decorations and green potted plants, only a table, three chairs, and some recording equipment. These people were taken as prisoners by him. He was extremely angry in his heart, but at the same time, he was also very curious. What happened that made the military dare to interrogate him like a prisoner? Did something go wrong?

At his position, he already knew that the impact of the information gap was not just as simple as a few words. He stared at Lieutenant Mary. Lieutenant Mary really smiled this time, and she smiled very generously.

"You misunderstood, Your Excellency. Because we just came here, we didn't pay attention to the layout of the room. If you think this room is not suitable for your status, you can go and have a look at other rooms, or directly choose One room, I can assure you, all the rooms are similar." These words were very good, explained the reason for "slow waiting", and gave Memnon a ladder.

Memnon showed a dazed look, then stepped into the room. He wouldn't really check to see if the other rooms were all a table and three chairs, that would only embarrass himself.

After the three of them sat down, Lieutenant Mary took out several transcripts and put them on the table next to Memnon, "We rushed to the scene immediately after we found out that Matthew was assassinated last night, and took some evidence and photos ..." She pushed the photo of Matthew's death in front of Memnon. The photo was taken at the scene of Matthew's death. Matthew was leaning on the chair, his throat was cut, and even part of it could be seen Adam's apple. At the same time, a knife was inserted into his left eye socket, which was very scary.

There are also several photos of Matthew lying on the dissection table. At this time, the dagger stuck in his eye socket has been taken out. After comparing the traces, the military believes that this dagger is the one that cut Matthew's throat.

"We found only two pieces of evidence at the scene, one was half a very shallow shoe print, and the other was a cigarette butt that had been smoked. Other than that, there was no obvious discovery." Lieutenant Mary then took out from the file A certificate was issued, "Then we investigated the records of the Telegraph Bureau. About five minutes before Matthew was killed, he was talking to Mr. Duhring. We also asked Mr. Duhring, and he gave an affirmative answer. , and told us that Matthew asked him to verify something."

Lieutenant Mary smiled strangely when he said this, "Your Excellency, do you want to know what they all said?"

Memnon frowned and leaned back, leaning his elbows on the armrest of the chair, and pinching his chin with his fingers. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Lieutenant Mary, hesitating for a moment, "What did they say?"

"What did they say? Let's talk about it later." Lieutenant Mary directly changed the topic, which made Memnon feel a little uneasy. He felt that Lieutenant Mary or the military had decided on him. It made him breathe a little faster than before.

Lieutenant Mary asked again: "According to our understanding and the information provided by some witnesses, Mr. Matthew went to your office yesterday morning?"

"Yes, I sent him."

Lieutenant Mary nodded, "Have you had any quarrels? Or violent conflicts?"

Memnon shook his head and said, "No, the atmosphere of our conversation has been very good and peaceful."

"Then you can tell me why Mr. Matthew walked away cursing you and Mr. Dooling as he left?"

Memnon froze for a moment,

At that time, he felt that the atmosphere between himself and Matthew was indeed very peaceful as he said, with no quarrels, no conflicts, and even a slightly more intense tone and action. Why would Matthew scold himself and bring Du Forest? He quickly reacted, "Because I told Mr. Matthew that Du Lin hoped to resolve the dispute between him and the West Mining Association in two ways, one good and one bad, maybe Mr. Matthew misunderstood me. meaning, so I have some dissatisfaction with me."

The soldiers around Lieutenant Mary were taking notes quickly, and there were cameras and tape recorders in operation around them. The imperial cabinet and the Ministry of National Defense are very concerned about the turmoil in the west. This place has always been a "lawless place", smuggling, murder, human trade, gang fights, government-business collusion... almost all the bad things that can be found are here. Once the turmoil in the west intensifies, it will quickly enter a state of "anarchy" in the west.

At that time, it is very likely that some unacceptable things will happen under the interference of external forces.

The war between the Empire and the Federation had ended twenty-two years ago, and what ended was only a superficial war, and the war continued where people could not see it. For example, last year, an extremist religious organization created a horrific suicide incident. One hundred and ninety-four people died from the thought brainwashing of this extremist religious organization. Arrival" and die in a row.

Later, when the Military Intelligence Department and the Security Committee investigated the tragedy, they found that the top leaders of the extremist religious organization had fled the empire, and found out that behind this organization, there were some federal consortiums that had been supporting their activities.

There are many similar things. Some large foreign consortiums support extremist organizations within the empire with funds or materials to carry out activities such as sabotage, incitement, and riots, in an attempt to break the peace of the empire and create turmoil. Once there is uncontrollable turmoil in the west, these external forces will take the opportunity to enter. They may not be able to declare war on the empire head-on, but they can achieve the goal of dividing or even splitting the empire through financial, material and even human assistance.

Therefore, the high-level officials of the entire empire are very concerned about these things in the west, especially the things that involve almost all the big powers in the west.

Mary pursed her lips and smiled, "What about this afternoon? We have more than one testimony and eyewitnesses to prove that Mr. Matthew went to your office again in the afternoon. Just being assassinated, do you think Matthew's death..." Lieutenant Mary smiled meaningfully, "Does it have anything to do with you?"

"You should save these words for Mr. Du Lin who called him last, not me!" Memnon sneered and countered.

"Our people are also asking about Dulin!", but for some reason, Lieutenant Mary's eyes looked a little helpless.

On the other side, people from the military stood in the hospital ward and asked almost similar questions. Their initial plan was to bring Durin back to the headquarters, where Durin might answer their questions "seriously" . But what they didn't expect was that the appearance of a person made them have nothing to do!

Just when they were about to do that, a man walked into the room. His name was Thomas.

The current Thomas is no longer Colonel Thomas at the Illian Naval Base in the past, he is now Rear Admiral Thomas!

The old commander felt that he was too greedy to persist for another two months and had to wait until the official adjustments were made before giving up his position. He might as well retire early and send a report to the Navy Headquarters. The Navy Headquarters agreed to the little old man's application and request as a matter of course, not only approved the little old man's retirement, but also allowed Colonel Thomas, the "gold medal salesman" in the navy, to pass the threshold that he would never be able to cross in his entire life, and became a member of the navy. major general.

As soon as Du Lin made a phone call, he came, and at this moment he was peeling apples for Du Lin.

There is such a "military boss" here as a guarantee for Du Lin, how dare these big soldiers from the Western Army Military Region take Du Lin away by force? Unless they want to be court-martialed for inciting naval antagonism.

The current navy is a piece of rotten meat, stinking black water, and has become a tool for the high-level navy to make money. But let’s say give up. After all, the coastal defense treaty just signed has not been stripped from people’s shallow memory, but let’s say don’t give up. The performance of the navy is really a headache for the Ministry of National Defense.

The Ministry of National Defense no longer allocates funds for the navy. The navy has found a way to make money. Now it is said that the navy is the navy of the empire. It is better to say that the navy is the navy of the admirals. , It is these people who pay to support the entire navy. Of course, no matter how they got the money, whether the money is legal or not, everyone must admit that it is precisely because of these people that the navy has not been completely dispersed.

Recently, the cabinet has the idea of ​​reconciling with the navy. The importance of coastal defense is becoming more and more obvious day by day. If the empire cannot firmly hold the navy in its own hands, if a war really breaks out in the future, maybe the navy will become Destroy the sharpest knives of the empire.

"Mr. Dühring...", the officer had just begun to speak, but was interrupted by Thomas.

"Soldier, don't you see that I'm talking to my friends? Is that what your superiors taught you? Go out and stand there. When I let you in, come in again!" Thomas raised his eyebrows, still It's a bit like a general!

He withdrew his gaze, put the polygonal apple in his hand on a plate, and handed it to Du Lin.
