Chapter 274 Dilemma(1/2)
Captain Archido Martell also reacted immediately, his brows furrowed into a frown.
"You are right. You are not an ordinary clerk who can know in advance that evidence and personnel are to be transferred.
But now we should see if we can catch the murderer first.
After we deal with the matter here, we will analyze it carefully."
Major Antone Rosa turned to look at Captain Achido Martel, nodded and said:
"You're right, let's solve the problems we see first.
However, we must be careful not to be used as a gun."
Captain Archido Martell understood what the other party meant, nodded and said:
"Then I'll outflank you from the right, and you from the left. We'll outflank him in two roundabout ways, blocking the murderer inside."
After saying that, he was about to leave directly. Upon seeing this, Major Antone Rosa quickly stopped him and said:
"Ten minutes have passed, and we don't know which direction the enemy is going. We can't help by rushing in blindly."
He turned around and glanced at the reinforcements that were coming in:
"We immediately cordoned off the entire area and set up checkpoints at major intersections. Everyone is allowed in but not allowed out. If any suspicious persons are found, they will be arrested first."
Captain Archido Martell nodded and said:
"You're right, let's do it this way. After sealing off the entire area, we will investigate each household. As long as the killer is still inside, he will definitely not be able to escape."
Because this is an emergency and there is no unified commander, the investigation director of the Ministry of Justice, Orenz Rivien, has already gone to hunt down the murderer.
Therefore, everyone established a command system according to military rank.
Major Antone Rosa, the head of the Navy's investigation team, served as the temporary commander, and with the cooperation of the Sao Paulo Police Department, began to seal off the entire area.
The blockade had just been established, and Major Antone Rosa met Orenzi Rivien, the investigation director of the Ministry of Justice, on the newly encircled blockade.
At this time, Director Orenz Livien no longer had the arrogance and strength he had just now.
Because of the violent running while chasing the enemy, his face was flushed and his head was sweating profusely, making him look very embarrassed.
Seeing that Major Antone Rosa had established a blockade at the intersection, he hurriedly walked up the first few steps:
"Have you found anyone suspicious?"
Major Antone Rosa shook his head and said:
"We have just completed the blockade and no suspicious persons have been found yet.
Didn't you see the murderer?"
Director Orenz Rivien shook his head with an ugly expression.
"We followed the direction of the gunfire and found the location where the gunman fired.
There was only one shell casing left at the scene and nothing else."
Major Antone Rosa looked at the director in front of him speechlessly. You didn't even see the murderer, and you didn't know which direction the murderer ran, so you just chased him. Isn't this a waste of expression?
But he definitely couldn't say this directly, so he could only say helplessly:
"Now we can only pray that the enemy has not escaped from our blockade.
We will immediately arrange for people to search every house to see if we can find any suspicious persons.
Did Sheriff Wallaway Geller go to the hospital?"
Major Antone Rosa did not go to the Ministry of Justice's transfer convoy to check the situation, so he did not know the current situation of the murderer, nor did he know where the murderer's shot hit him.
Upon hearing this question, Director Orenz Rivien's face turned green and red, looking embarrassed and angry.
After a while, he sighed and said:
"The gunman was less than 100 meters away from the convoy and shot him directly in the head. The prisoner was confirmed dead on the spot."
Although he had expected it, Major Antone Rosa still found it difficult to accept this answer.
His tone was serious, his eyes fixed on Director Orenzi Levien and he said:
"Were you prepared for this transfer operation or was it a temporary decision?
How many people know your transfer plan and route?"
When Director Orenz Rivien heard this question, he didn’t understand what the other party meant.
His face turned red and he was about to retort.
But when I met the other party’s unyielding look, there were some words I couldn’t say after all.
"We had planned it long ago, and even the Sao Paulo branch had prepared offices and detention rooms for us in advance.
Many people know about the transfer plan.
I made a temporary decision to transfer the route. I didn’t make a plan, I just took the nearest route.
You don’t need to say more, I know you suspect that one of us has leaked intelligence, and I will report it immediately and apply for screening of all of us.
But now everyone must work together to find this killer."
When Major Antone Rosa saw the other party's expression, his face became very ugly.
What's the use of finding the person who leaked the information?
The only living person who might know the truth has been killed.
How to continue the investigation of the entire case is his biggest concern.
I understand in my heart that the most important thing now is to catch the killer, which requires everyone's cooperation.
In the end, I could only look at the other person deeply and nodded helplessly.
The area that was cordoned off was very large, and the door-to-door search didn't end until midnight, but the result was a huge disappointment to everyone.
Due to the whole-day blockade, people in the area were very dissatisfied and continued to protest.
The city government had to force the investigation team to lift the blockade early the next morning.
At this point, the Fang Lang attack case hit a bottleneck on the day the Ministry of Justice took over.
All members of the investigation team involved in the operation have been restricted from moving, pending screening.
Fangyuan Group Investigation Department Conference Room.
"Minister, the police chief is dead, and all the information and evidence have been sealed by the Ministry of Justice.
Now they have to conduct internal screening again and have no time to launch an investigation."
Zhong Ze listened to the intelligence officer's report, his face turned livid.
"It seems we can't count on these wastes, so we can only investigate them ourselves.
Originally we had no direction, but this time it gave us a new direction.
The intervention of the Ministry of Justice was very sudden. Why didn’t the Ministry of Justice intervene in the investigation when the incident first occurred?
Instead, it took five days to intervene.
Even if they received an order from the president to conduct an investigation, why did the investigation start at this time?
Is there any special reason?
Also, since it is an investigation, why does the Ministry of Justice want to take back the investigative rights of other departments? Wouldn’t it be better for everyone to investigate together?
In addition, the investigation is to investigate why all the data and personnel related to the incident were transferred.
I feel like there is something wrong with the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice. Do you think the mastermind behind the scenes is within the Ministry of Justice?
Maybe it's a big shot in the Ministry of Justice.
After all, the police department also falls under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice!
If you want to place people in the police system, no one can do it more easily than the big shots in the Ministry of Justice!"
All the intelligence officers in the conference room nodded one after another, although no one was familiar with the situation in Brazil.
But as a military unified agent, the ability of intelligence analysis has not been lost.
"But Minister, this is the Brazilian Ministry of Justice!
If we conduct such a reckless investigation and are discovered, will we cause trouble to the boss?"
After Zhong Ze thought for a while, he nodded and said:
"What you said makes sense. Today is different from the past. We are not familiar with the place in Brazil, so we should be more cautious.
I will send a telegram to the boss later, report the matter to the boss, and then act according to the boss's orders.
Don’t give up on the clues you are investigating, we must continue to pursue them.
This is the time when we show our value, and I hope we can let the boss see our abilities.
Do you understand?"
Everyone agreed in unison:
To be continued...
