Sebastiao Hodges lowered his head for a long while before saying:
"I've made up my mind. Only if I plead guilty can I have a chance to save my life."
The current situation is indeed as he expected. If he tells the investigation team, they may be able to find out who is behind the incident.
But the more likely possibility was that he was silenced prematurely. After all, even his request to see Fang Lang had been delayed for such a long time.
Not to mention the situation that is unfavorable to the Ministry of Justice.
As for Fang Lang, he also does not want to expose the mastermind behind the scenes.
First of all, it is hard to say whether complete evidence can be obtained after the exposure. Without solid evidence, it would be extremely difficult to send a big shot in the Ministry of Justice to prison.
Even if everyone knew that he did it, it would be difficult to give him the punishment he deserved.
On the contrary, if anything unexpected happened to him, Fang Lang would become the main target of suspicion.
...
...
This is not conducive to Fang Lang implementing his revenge plan at all.
On the contrary, as long as you secretly investigate who attacked you, you will have many ways to ruin the other party's reputation and then arrange a good ending for them.
In this way, you can retaliate against your opponent as covertly as possible.
It is also helpless to know that Sebastiao Hodges chose to plead guilty, but fortunately, there is no death penalty in Brazil. After Fang Lang has taken revenge on the mastermind behind the scenes, there may still be a chance to get him out.
Fang Lang stood up and hugged the other party again before saying:
"Dude, give me a week to find this guy first."
Sebastio Hodges nodded, and the other party said:
"Fang, thank you for always trusting me. It's my honor to know you.
Don't worry! I won't confess right away.
If I confess my guilt right after meeting you today, it would arouse suspicion.
I will delay it for at least a month. I want to let everyone see that the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice is a joke.
The entire Department of Justice will become a joke.”
After saying this, he looked at Fang Lang as if he wanted to say something but ended up saying nothing.
Fang Lang smiled and said:
“Don’t worry!
Buddy, I will arrange for someone to take care of your family and I promise you won't have any worries.
After I get rid of the real mastermind behind this, I will definitely find a way to rescue you from this sea of suffering."
Hearing Fang Lang's promise, Sebastiao Hodges rarely smiled.
In fact, Fang Lang still believes in him, which makes him grateful from the bottom of his heart.
He felt that if he were in the other person's shoes, he would never treat himself like this.
After all, there was a time when even he himself began to doubt whether he really planned all this.
Only Fang Lang believed that he was innocent from beginning to end.
Now she even wants to help him take care of his family, how can he not be moved.
"Brother, be careful, these high-ranking officials are evil-minded!"
Fang Lang nodded, stood up and gave Sebastiao Hodges a big hug.
"You should also be careful and protect yourself."
After saying that, he turned around, opened the door and walked out. Qi Qingshan, who was at the door, saw Fang Lang was about to come out, so he stepped aside to make way for him.
After Fang Lang came out, the Justice Department agents who had been waiting outside the door quickly squeezed in and took Sebastio Hodges under control.
Investigation Director Orenz Rivian stood beside Fang Lang with a respectful look on his face and said:
"General Fang, I wonder if the suspect has revealed any useful information."
Fang Lang glanced at the other person and smiled:
"If he has any useful information, shouldn't he tell you?"
On the contrary, Sebastiao Hodges heard Orenz Rivian's words and seemed to suddenly react and shouted:
"Fang, believe me, I am really wronged."
The agents controlling Sebastiao Hodges were stunned when they heard his shouting.
He quickly covered his mouth with his hand and tried to drag him away.
Fang Lang hadn't reacted when he first heard Sebastiao Hodges's cry. What was going on? Wasn't he fine just now? Why did he suddenly start to cry out for injustice?
Soon he noticed Orenz Rivian beside him, with an inquiring look in his eyes.
I suddenly understood what Sebastiao Hodges meant. I didn't expect that this old guy, who usually looks stupid, would be so clever.
When Sebastiao Hodges asked to meet Fang Lang, Fang Lang had already begun to suspect that there was something wrong with the Ministry of Justice.
The investigation director in front of him thought of internal screening as soon as the murderous sheriff was silenced.
There is no reason not to infer that there are problems within the Ministry of Justice.
There is certainly some speculation as to whether Sebastio Hodges has thought of any clues.
But neither Fang Lang nor Sebastiao Hodges would believe him.
After all, it was because of his order to transfer prisoners and information that the captured sheriff was silenced.
Therefore, even if the two of them had any clues, they would not inform him.
Sebastiao Hodges's sudden cry of innocence was obviously intended to mislead the investigation director and make him think that Sebastiao Hodges asked to see Fang Lang just to cry out for innocence.
Otherwise, there must be an explanation for what the two of them talked about in the office.
In fact, Fang Lang was not worried that the other party would ask him what they talked about. If he didn't want to answer, no one could force him.
But Sebastiao Hodges might be dragged out and interrogated harshly.
Sebastiao Hodges was dragged away, struggling and shouting that it was unfair.
Fang Lang was somewhat impressed by this guy's acting skills.
Orenz Rivian obviously did not believe the content of the conversation between the two in the office, that Hodges was expressing his grievances to Fang Lang.
Because everyone knew that Sebastiao Hodges was wrongly accused, it was impossible for Fang Lang to be called over just to protest his injustice again.
If Fang Lang had not been the victim, Orenz Rivian would now have suspected whether there was some conspiracy behind this assassination.
After all, there are secrets between the victim and the suspect that they are unwilling to let the investigators know.
This is obviously not normal.
"General Fang, if this guy has provided any useful information, please tell us, otherwise our investigation will be in trouble."
Orenz Rivian's words were rather euphemistic, but Fang Lang could understand what he meant.
Isn't it that if clues are not provided, it may be impossible to catch the real culprit?
But Fang Lang now knew very well that even if he told the other party this news, it would be impossible to catch the real culprit.
The most likely scenario is to alert the enemy or prevent Fang Lang from having a chance to retaliate.
“The issue we are discussing has nothing to do with the case, and as for what it is, you have no right to know, nor should you know.
Let me reiterate that Sebastiao Hodges and I are very good friends.
I never doubted him from beginning to end, and I am still convinced that he is innocent.
So I hope you will exercise restraint when dealing with my friends.
From now on, I will arrange for people to come and check on his condition at regular intervals. If I find that you have taken any inappropriate measures against him, I will make you bear the consequences.
Please remember what I said. "
In response to Fang Lang's tough statement, Orenz Rivian had an expression that said, "This is too difficult."
I don't know how to continue my investigation.
In fact, at this time he already vaguely understood something.
If Fang Lang’s attack this time was not a conspiracy designed by Fang Lang himself.
That's the guy who launched this attack, the big guy in their Department of Justice.
Otherwise, no one would be able to mobilize insiders in the police department to complete this plan without causing any trouble.
And, found a perfect scapegoat.
Now he is just a small cannon fodder caught in the middle of the game between the big guys.
If he really found out the truth of the matter, he might be silenced.
And if he hadn't found out the truth, his career might have been over.
Thinking of this, he wanted to slap himself hard a few times. Why was he pretending to be so arrogant and blatantly excluding all the other people from the investigation team?
Taking the entire investigation task on himself is a typical case of digging a hole and burying oneself.
It is now impossible to push the mission out.
Because after he screened the investigation team of his Ministry of Justice, no problems were found.
The screening of other investigation teams began immediately. This action directly led to the other investigation teams being withdrawn by relevant agencies and conducting their own internal screening.
After all, these institutions are not small players, so there is no reason to ask the Ministry of Justice to help them with the screening work.
If there really is something wrong with their people, wouldn't it be a huge disgrace to their unit?
The consequence of this is that the only one still investigating this case is the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice, and they cannot shirk their responsibilities even if they want to.
Of course, in reality, they had no way of pushing it away, after all, they were conducting the investigation on the orders of the president.
The expression he showed as if it was too difficult was not an act.
It is an expression of his true emotions at this moment.
After Fang Lang expressed his attitude and warned the other party not to take any action against Sebastiao Hodges, he turned around and left the Ministry of Justice building without hesitation.
Leaving behind Orenz Rivian, the Justice Department's director of investigations, disheveled.
This time, the chief investigator did not go out to see Fang Lang off. Instead, he stood by the upstairs window and watched Fang Lang get on the car waiting downstairs and leave the Ministry of Justice building under the protection of a group of guards.
He did not look away until the convoy completely disappeared from his sight. Instead, he stared out the window with lifeless eyes, gradually losing focus.
At this moment, a fierce ideological struggle was going on in his heart.
Until a young agent came up to him with a folder and whispered:
"Team Leader, should we remove the monitoring equipment in the detention room?"
As a result, it was found that the investigation director was obviously not in the right state and was not listening to what he was saying at all.
He moved closer to Orenz Rivian and said:
"Team leader, team leader..."
After a while, the investigation director finally responded.
The detective seemed to hear the director say:
"Fuck it, I quit."
But, I didn't hear it clearly and I was not sure.
Orenz Rivian looked at the young agent beside him and said with some annoyance:
"What did you say?"
The detective noticed that Chief of Investigation Orenz Rivian had a very unhappy expression on his face. He resisted the urge to take two steps back and whispered:
"Team leader, should we remove the eavesdropping device we installed in the detention room?"
Orenz Rivian stared at the silly agent in front of him and said:
"Others have long been on guard against this move of yours, and won't fall into your trap at all.
Why don't you retreat and wait inside to listen to Sebastio Hodges's talk in his sleep?"
The young agent did not dare to refute. He shrank his neck and whispered:
"It's the team leader."
He quickly left Orenz Rivian's side.
In fact, the agent's ears were not hallucinating. Orenz Rivian made a decision during the time he was in a daze.
That is to leave this vortex of right and wrong as soon as possible, even if it means sacrificing your own future.
He had to jump out quickly, otherwise if he continued, he might die.
