The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

"Master Investigator, these are all the employees I can find now."

Alonia glanced at these employees, and then asked.

"Well, have you seen the man who hired you?"

"No..." The two homeless men looked at each other and shook their heads.

"But..." said another tramp, "the man I know is there."

"who is it?"

The homeless man didn't hesitate for a long time this time, and pointed to an employee.

"Who is he?" Alonia asked Aken.

"His name is Marlowe." Aken waved at the employee, "Get over here, Mr. Investigator has something to ask you."

Marlowe stood out from the crowd with a disturbed expression on his face.

"Have you caught some stray cats and dogs recently?" Alonia asked directly.

"Yes..." Marlowe was a little surprised, "What's wrong?"

He didn't have any intention of hiding it, so he said it directly.

In fact, arresting stray cats and dogs is really not a crime.

The laws of the empire do not stipulate that stray cats and dogs need to be protected, unless they are domestic pets that belong to personal property, otherwise such stray cats and dogs will not be cared about even if they die.

So this sort of thing is perfectly fine, at least legally.

"What are you catching cats and dogs for?"

"This..." Marlow was taken aback, then turned to look at Aken.

"This is our company's business." Akon's smiling face was a little stiff, "I asked Marlowe to do this."

"What kind of business?"

"Clean up the neighborhood environment." Aken lied casually, "These stray cats and dogs usually shit everywhere, which has a very bad impact on the cleanliness of the street, so someone entrusted us to catch them, and then clean them all up to purify the street environment."

"So what's the matter with the rumors? Could it be that it's your business to hire homeless men to spread rumors about homeless animals being caught and eaten by homeless men?" Alonia asked.

"What rumor?" Aken looked confused, "Master Investigator, we will naturally admit what we have done, and what we have not done is that we have not done it. We have not hired anyone to spread rumors, and why do we do this kind of thing?" Want to spread rumors? Let others know that cats and dogs were caught by us, is this something shameful or illegal?"

It has to be said that what Akon said is indeed reasonable. It seems that there is no need for them to spread such rumors. Even if people know that they caught cats and dogs, it will not have any impact.

However, the premise that this will not affect them is that they catch stray cats and dogs really for the so-called "purification of the street environment".

Whether they catch stray animals to purify the streets or eat them, no one can control them because of this kind of thing, and they have no reason to cover up this kind of thing.

unless……

They knew what bad things these stray animals were used for, because if someone sacrificed the stray animals they captured, they would be regarded as sacrifice providers, and they could be charged as accomplices, thus Let them enjoy free board and lodging for several years.

Of course, enjoy it in prison.

Chapter 1 Eat Ru Like Ru (3)

If there is no direct evidence, and the people from Aken Manpower Company all insist that the arrest of cats and dogs is for some ridiculous but not illegal reasons, then there is really nothing to do with them.

Alonya also has experience in this kind of thing, and she didn't threaten. Seeing that Aken insisted on pretending to be stupid, she got up and took Lu Nier and the others away.

Akon yelled behind them.

"Three adults, go slowly!"

After seeing the backs of the investigators disappear, Aken's face gradually darkened, and he asked the little brother beside him.

"Have the corpses been disposed of?"

"It's all been burned, and the investigators couldn't find any evidence."

"Hmph, next time, let me know in advance of this kind of work, don't take it randomly, and contact these customers, and this kind of order to catch animals will not be accepted in the future."

……

There is obviously something wrong with this group of people, but they can't ask directly. In this case, all Lu Nier can think of is to investigate from other places.

For example, start with the missing animals and find their traces.

Walking out of the company, Lu Nier looked around, but he didn't find Angela, and he didn't know where she had gone.

Alonya sent the two homeless men away, her expression was not very angry, probably because she was used to this situation.

"Now it is basically certain that someone hired the Aken Manpower Company to catch stray animals, and then use them for unknown purposes, and it is the kind of use that is likely to be illegal, such as offering sacrifices to evil gods." Alonia said, "That's why Aken Manpower Company, after knowing about it, quickly cleared itself and got rid of this matter..."

"Aken Manpower Company spread the rumors after the animals disappeared, right?" Lu Nier expressed his opinion, "That is to say, they probably didn't know that the animals they captured would be used to take them away. Do something that hurts you. When you find out later, you will rush to remedy it."

"Where's Li Jie? What do you think?" Alonia asked again.

"My words..." Li Jie thought for a while, "If you want to solve this case, I think the fastest way is to go directly to the people in this company, and then ask who is the person who hired them to catch the animals."

"What do you think we should do now?" Alonia asked Lunier again.

She did this on purpose to train Lunier and Li Jie. After all, in her eyes, they were just trainee team members who were still learning how to be investigators.

"Actually, I think Li Jie's method is good. It is indeed the easiest and quickest way to ask the people from the company, but they will definitely not cooperate with us, so we have to use some means..."

Seeing that the two team members agreed, Alonya nodded with some relief.

This answer is qualified.

As the two said, a ready-made, the fastest way to solve the case is at hand.

It is already known that the missing animals are related to this company, so naturally it is best to start the investigation from this company.

"You've spoken very well, and I'll leave the rest to you." Alonia patted Lunier on the shoulder, "I'll rest over there."

"Hey, you're the captain!" Lu Nier couldn't help complaining. It seemed that she threw the task to the two of them to solve the first case like this.

"Because I am the captain, I am more obliged to let you solve the case independently. Otherwise, I will solve the case by myself, and you will just watch from the sidelines. It is impossible to learn more from the sidelines than to solve the case yourself, right?"

"For newcomers, you can learn more by observing the actions of experienced formal investigators, right? Not everyone can be self-taught." Lunier retorted.

"That's true..." Alonia thought for a while, "Well, then, you can try to solve it by yourself first, and if you really can't do it, how about you come to me? Just treat me as your last resort, a secret weapon. "

"..." Lu Nier didn't know what to say for a while.

"I don't care." Li Jie said.

"That's how it is." Lu Nier actually thinks it's good, because it can reduce Alonia's combat power and add more danger to himself when encountering a sudden dangerous situation.

Although I haven't seen the captain make a move with my own eyes, but the current Lunier, judged by the basic perception of E-level, the captain's strength is definitely not weak, and this is not weak, because his current strength is not weak.

"Then I'll go to the cafe before and take a rest first. If you have anything to do, you can find me there, bye."

Alonia walked very simply.

"Have you thought of any means to ask?" Li Jie asked proactively.

"Not yet..." Lu Nier shook his head.

"Why don't we just arrest him and force him to interrogate him?" Li Jie suggested, showing a surprising side.

"Investigators should have regulations. It is a violation of the rules to use violence to force a confession without definite suspicion?" Lunier said.

"But is there any other way besides this?" Li Jie asked back, "Although there is no direct evidence, they already have enough suspicions. Their performance directly shows that they are indeed related to this case. As long as we If you press for useful intelligence and relevant information, then there were not enough suspicions before, but now they are.”

"Indeed." Lunier nodded, "But what if the violent questioning doesn't work?"

"Always try first."

"Okay... But we have to plan first. Our current identity is too conspicuous. It is estimated that this company is sending people to follow and monitor us now."

"Someone is watching us."

"you saw it?"

"The eyesight of our elves is far better than that of humans." Li Jie said, "From the time we first walked on this street, I noticed that there are two people pretending to be chatting behind you on the left side, but their eyes are always on the road. He didn't leave us, and there was also someone staring at us from the window on the second floor of this company..."

"Let's get out of here first, and get rid of their surveillance first."

"it is good."

The two left here quickly, and not long after they walked out of the street, the people watching behind them left.

This made Lu Nier's original idea of ​​arresting the watchers who were following him fall through.

"What should I do now?" Li Jie asked.

"If you want to arrest, you have to arrest someone who knows the inside story of the disappearance of cats and dogs... First of all, the boss Aken must have known about it, but it is more difficult to arrest him, and even if he is caught, it is estimated that the difficulty of interrogating him will not be small I think that Marlowe is fine. He participated in the arrest of cats and dogs, so he should know some inside information. It is also possible that he only knows that he caught cats and dogs, but he doesn’t know why he was caught. Maybe it’s useless to ask him..."

At this moment, Angela came from a distance, and it seemed that she was still on that street before.

"Do you need help?"

"What were you doing just now?" Lunil asked.

"I took advantage of the time when you entered the company for questioning, and collected some information nearby, and got to know the personnel and composition of Aken Manpower Company."

"Who did you ask?"

"Of course I'm looking for employees of this company." Angela smiled, "As long as there is a little temptation, these low-level employees will not be able to control their mouths."

Li Jie looked at Angela, then turned to look at Lu Nier and asked.

"Can she be trusted?"

"Yes, she is a reporter. She is the client of this case. I think she can help us."

This point Lunier sincerely, in terms of the ability to collect intelligence, he felt that Angela was completely qualified, much better than himself, because the information she collected brought him key hints in the last case.

"I know, I saw her in the first case."

Having said that, Li Jie didn't speak any more, but she should have accepted Angela's existence.

"So, is there anything I can do for you now?" Angela repeated.

"A little……"

Lunier thought about it, explained the current information to Angela, and then expressed his doubts and guesses.

"I see. If you're worried about catching the wrong person, then that Marlowe should know the inside story."

"why?"

"Look." Angela took out a notebook from her pocket, then spread it out and handed it to Lunier.

Lu Nier took the notebook and read it with Li Jie.

"Personnel structure chart of Aken Manpower Company?"

There are one name after another on it, and their respective identities and statuses are marked. For example, there is "President" next to Aken's name.

Like a pyramid, Akon’s name is at the top, and then from top to bottom, each name is written on it, among which is Akon’s name, and his position is "foreign affairs director", in the company structure chart Li is located in the second class, second only to Akon.

That is to say, Marlowe is completely a big shot in Aken Human Resources Company, the kind who belongs to the company's top management, and is very likely to participate in some secret decision-making.

"What does he, the director of foreign affairs, do?" Lunier asked.

"In the Aken Manpower Company, their business is divided into two parts. One is the company's own business, such as lending usury and fraud. They claim that this is internal affairs, and the other is to accept entrustments from customers outside the company and help others solve the problem. Various incidents, collecting employment fees, this is what they call foreign affairs." Angela explained, "And this director of foreign affairs, that is to say, Marlowe is the leader who manages the entire foreign affairs business, and all foreign affairs business must be handled from him first. It is under his management, and he has a lot of power."

"Got it." Luneil said, "That's Marlowe."

"Do you have any plans?"

"Since this Marlowe is the director of foreign affairs, there must be times when he is performing foreign affairs. We can monitor them in turn, catch him while they are performing foreign affairs, and then press for information."

"It's really a simple plan...but I like it, but your clothes are too conspicuous. I suggest you change your clothes. The investigator's uniform is easy to attract attention and is not suitable for surveillance."

What Angela said was indeed reasonable, so Lunier and Li Jie returned to the investigation bureau, changed into a set of clothes, then changed the entrance to enter the block, and found a suitable location to monitor the entrance of the Arken Human Resources Company. .

As for Angela, she was also on this street, in a coffee shop not far from the company, eating lemon cake while leisurely writing something in her notebook.

Surveillance is undoubtedly a job that requires patience. Lu Nier and Li Jie hid at the surveillance location and observed the entrance of the Aken Manpower Company.

The period of surveillance seemed to stretch even the time.

"Lu Nier." Li Jie suddenly whispered.

"Ok?"
