The security team pulled up a barrier, and Horden was not able to enter directly, and was intercepted by the security guards guarding the door.But Holden didn't wait long.Thunder Peters and Brutus followed in their footsteps, and the security officer recognized the two young masters at a glance, and only after Thunder Peters explained the ins and outs did the security officer open the barrier and let all four of Hordon and his party enter.In the midst of the surging crowd, you can see the starry Gaston Longxiang at a glance.A group of faces in suits and leather shoes gathered around Gaston, and Squadron Leader Trento was among them, but it was another unfamiliar face who was reporting to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and Trento could only stand half a step behind, bowing his hands respectfully and politely, and he was only one of the many listeners.Because all the attention of the audience was focused on Gaston, coupled with the dense crowd, the appearance of Holden and his party did not alarm too many people.From afar, Hoden could capture the majesty and solemnity exuded from Gaston's body, although his usual elegant demeanor still controlled his expression and etiquette, but he couldn't feel the usual spring breeze at all, and the air pressure in the entire space was obviously suppressed.In Holden's view, the Southern Orson Company has made a bad move today: perhaps because the Southern Orson Company has always been used to being strong, and the arrogance of no one in their eyes makes them forgetful; Maybe it was because they didn't expect Holden's entry to involve the appearance of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and things were unexpectedly out of their original control.Perhaps because of a deviation in the execution of the killing, the professional killer was not able to wait for Alber to return home and do it early; Maybe it's because they're going to give the Third Precinct Security Force a shocking education, but they accidentally touch someone's backscale.Perhaps, there are other possibilities.But no matter what, in the end, the Southern Orson Company tried to kill people and silence Alber in a hurry, but they directly acted in the security team and killed four security officers, including Isa, and brewed a bloody crime.This is absolutely self-defeating.In recent years, the Leia Empire has been implementing the security team, hoping that the security team can assume the official law enforcement function and establish the entire legal system, although the implementation process has encountered many resistance, from within the nobility, from high-level psionics, etc., but the current king is still very resolute, and has achieved good results.But what is happening today is a challenge to the king's authority - if the murderer can carry out the murder directly within the vigilantes, then where else is safe in the empire?
If the authority of the security forces cannot be guaranteed, how should the law enforcement process be carried forward?
What's more, today is the security team, so who will be tomorrow's turn?
A nobleman's private residence?
Tuno Palace?
Or the king's bedchamber?
His Royal Highness the Third Prince represents the attitude of the king and the attitude of the empire, and I am afraid that this matter is difficult to be good, which can be seen from Gaston's expression.But Holden's thoughts are more far-reaching: from the attitude of the captain of the Trento squadron, it can be seen that the Southern Orson Company may not be so simple, the biggest possibility is that there is the support of the nobles behind it, then, today's incident, whether it is the aristocracy's plan to challenge the authority of the royal family, or the accident caused by deviations and mistakes in the process of issuing orders from superiors, this will also become a game promoted by the next case, and different situations may lead to different results.The only thing that is certain is that Alber feared that his arm would not break his thigh, and his testimony might not be able to pull those men off the horse without a decisive word; But now it has evolved into a thigh-to-thigh contest, the weight of Albert's testimony has risen, and the once unreachable top management has become pawns, and they are no longer untouchable.Now, what Horden needs to do is to fan the flames and make this storm bigger, so that all the guys who are high up and pointing the country will fall into the dust, and their noses will be bruised and their faces will be swollen, and then they will compare and see who has the bigger and harder fists.Hodden didn't go straight to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, but quietly hid his figure and silently moved towards the direction of the conference room - as he had just said, he didn't trust the security team's ability to collect evidence, and there was more evidence left in that conference room than blood."
Count Gustav Ryochamp has arrived!"
At this moment, a formal call with a long tail came from behind him, and the grand and honorable pomp and circumstance was much more cumbersome than the approachable His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and a appearance could make everyone in the audience clearly realize that another member of the royal family arrived at the scene, and the etiquette must be fully followed.Count Gustav Longchamp, the younger brother of the current ruler of the Lea Empire, that is, the uncle of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, did not hold an official position, but only hung the name of a minister of etiquette, and usually did not care about things, but there were many rumors of romantic gossip.It is rumored that Count Gustav has recently arrived in Iwabuchi, visiting the mountains and rivers, looking for food, hugging left and right, and having a happy leisure vacation; But I didn't expect that today I would be able to appear in the security team of the third jurisdiction?
So, what exactly is he here to do?
Because of Gustav's arrival, everyone at the scene followed the faint commotion, and their eyes were projected in the direction of the entrance, which instead gave Holden a chance, and his steps slipped quickly in the direction of the conference room.Thunder Peters and Brutus reflexively prepared to meet Count Gustav Longchamp, but they saw Hordon and Robben taking the opportunity to sneak away, both of them were stunned, Brutus did not have so much burden, and immediately followed the footsteps, but Thunder Peters was a one-eyed look, and after hesitating for a moment, he missed the best opportunity, and finally could only stand in place.Faintly, Gaston seemed to notice Holden's figure, and the eyes of the two quickly crossed in the air, but Holden's footsteps did not stop, and then flashed directly into the corridor behind the bend, hiding his figure; Naturally, Gaston withdrew his gaze and looked back at it.Hodden and Robben stepped into the hallway where the conference room was located, and Brutus was a little slower, but still caught up.Behind him, the lively sound of greeting Count Gustav was quietly surging, and the depression and solemnity of Gaston's presence at the scene before had quietly settled, and the sound of squirming could detect faint excitement and excitement.In front of him, the corpse that had not had time to carry it lay crookedly - but the position had changed, it looked like it had been moved, although no blood was detected, but the dark red carpet under his feet was filled with a pungent fishy smell, and after taking two steps forward, he could detect a viscous and damp liquid faintly oozing from the carpet under his feet.Syllable.Syllable.Wet.Slimy.It's like stepping into a swamp.()
