Chapter 3479 What is the truth(2/3)
The pursuers behind him escaped.
Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, he firmly believes in Victor's words.
A powerful cabal is planning a conspiracy.
And the person who leads this cabal is also a very powerful person.
Peter Lin?
Since Victor has suspected this person, he may already have some evidence in his hands.
In front is the Ministry of Transportation building.
During the Battle of Manila, fierce fighting broke out here.
Half the building was destroyed.
Before meeting Victor, Jonathan must ensure his own safety!
…
Meng Shaoyuan's head is as big as three!
Krista!
That's right, when he came back, he actually met Krista.
That female reporter!
I'm afraid it's too late to avoid it.
Varnado, who was so stubborn and had no eyesight at all, actually extended an invitation to Krista enthusiastically.
Well, Master Meng's lustful "reputation" is not only known to his subordinates, but also to the Filipinos in Manila.
Especially Varnado, he is the deputy chief of the police, so it is unreasonable to not understand this matter clearly.
Meng Shaoyuan was so angry that his teeth itched with hatred.
He didn't like reporters to begin with.
Moreover, Krista is also a female reporter with background.
But is there any way besides just saying not to invite her?
…
It seems that Victor has long been prepared for the worst-case scenario.
The bag for Jonathan contained food, water, maps, toiletries, and a pistol.
Jonathan checked the pistol and felt a little more relaxed.
Any agent who has a weapon in his hand will always be more courageous.
Even if he encounters those people again, Jonathan believes that he can kill a few of them.
He hid in the corner and ate something.
Now, just wait until it gets completely dark.
…
Varnado's wife is four years older than him and looks very old.
But I have to admit that she is a virtuous and capable woman.
She prepared a table of sumptuous dishes, but after she was ready, she returned to the kitchen.
Varnado also specially prepared two bottles of wine.
What I drank was malt liquor, a specialty of the Philippines.
This wine tastes okay.
A reporter is a reporter after all. After drinking for a while, Krista said: "Mr. Deputy Director, I heard that there is a strange case in Manila, an invisible man?"
Varnado smiled bitterly.
Krista is a reporter, and reporters are everywhere. Although the invisible man case is regarded as confidential by the police department, after all, so many people have been exposed to this case. How can it be so easy to keep it secret?
"This case is quite complicated." Varnado said bravely: "There are many things involved. It is not convenient for me to disclose the specific circumstances now."
"What about you, Colonel?"
As if she had expected Varnado's answer, Krista turned to Meng Shaoyuan.
"Me? What am I?" Meng Shaoyuan looked innocent: "I am a soldier, and any case is not within my scope of responsibility."
"Colonel, do you always like to hide yourself?" Unexpectedly, Krista said unceremoniously: "From the first time I met you, you always like to hide yourself. For example, in the Manila murder case, you succeeded
You have the ability to solve this case, but you are not willing to do it.
Colonel, can you honestly tell me what you think about the invisible man case, or do you believe that there are invisible men in this world?"
"I don't know, I really don't know." Meng Shaoyuan sighed and said: "There are too many things in this world that are difficult to explain. I can't know everything. Why can't invisible people exist?
That female student, Amelia, not only her, but also many police officers, including Deputy Director Varnado, witnessed her being bitten by an unknown, invisible creature and leaving scars all over her body. The evidence is conclusive. I can’t think of it.
No reason to believe it."
"Yeah?"
Krista seemed to still have a little doubt.
After she learned about the case, she tried every means to investigate. She even met the female student Amelia, and used money to bribe the police who witnessed the incident, and asked in detail about the entire incident.
It's so weird, so incredible.
It is difficult for normal people to view this incident.
However, based on Krista's understanding of Colonel Charles, it doesn't seem that simple.
At the beginning, during the Manila murder incident, Colonel Charles had the same expression.
What is he hiding?
Krista wanted to capture something from Colonel Charles's expression, but she was obviously disappointed. Colonel Charles looked so frank and honest.
Even his eyes were full of sincerity.
…
it's dark.
Before dark, Jonathan had entered the Department of Transportation building.
He must evade the US military patrol.
God knows whether those behind the scenes will extend their hands to the patrol team.
Moreover, he must also be prepared.
What if Victor falls into the hands of those people, what if he can't bear it and reveals this?
Jonathan carefully checked the place and determined the hiding place and his own escape route in case of emergency.
After everything was arranged, he felt a little relieved.
Now, just wait for Victor to show up.
This is the only person Jonathan trusts in Manila.
…
"Why must we pursue the truth?"
Faced with Krista's probing questions, Master Meng really had a headache: "What is the truth? Is it really a good thing to pursue the truth? There are so many unsolved truths in the world. Just relying on human beings, I am afraid that for several generations
It may not be possible to solve it. In this case, why can't we choose to give up?"
Krista was actually speechless for a moment.
This is Varnado's home, but now, he seems to be a guest.
Both of them are Americans, one is the emperor of Manila, and the other is a journalist with a profound background. Varnado doesn't know which side he should stand on.
…
There were slight footsteps.
Jonathan took out his pistol and held his breath.
Went up to the second floor.
"Jonathan."
Victor's voice came over.
Jonathan made no move.
Once upon a time, something like this happened.
