Davis Barry thought seriously for a while before answering:
“As far as I know, this was a private act on the part of Raymond Eddy.
Or rather, it was the behavior of Raymond Eddy and Reiko Mizuno. It has nothing to do with the Eddy family.”
This answer did not surprise Cirio Recchi at all. After all, judging from the current situation, only Raymond Eddie was involved.
But the Eddy family is a whole. If Raymond Eddy is touched, it will definitely lead to revenge from the entire Eddy family.
Neither Fang Lang nor Cirio Reich would be naive enough to think that things would end with Raymond Eddie.
"OK, now let's move on to the next question.
What do you know about the death of your old comrade Jesse Colantuono?"
Davis Barry's first reaction when he heard this question was that his pupils contracted sharply and his entire back was instantly wet with cold sweat.
...
...
He was very clear that this matter and arms smuggling were two completely different cases.
If it was arms smuggling, Raymond Eddie could still save his life.
This incident will definitely bring the entire Eddie family into irretrievable disaster.
But since the other party asked Jesse Colantuono, he didn't dare to bet that the other party didn't know the situation.
"I...I...I...I was not involved in this matter."
In the end, Davis Barry could only suppress the panic in his heart and answered in a low voice with a slight trembling.
When Syrio Reci saw the cold sweat on the other's bald forehead, he knew that this guy must know something.
As to whether he really did not participate or was pretending not to participate, it all depends on their own subsequent investigation.
"Whether you were involved or not is not up to you to decide, we will conduct our own investigation and judgment.
What you need to do now is to honestly explain the problems you know.
If the information you provide does not match what we have, you must be prepared to bear the consequences of lying.
So far, the communication between us has been smooth.
I didn't torture you.
But I have to tell you that using torture to extract the information we want from the enemy is our most basic skill.
I hope you don’t want to try it.”
The tone is flat, as if telling you what dishes you can eat today.
But to Davis Barry, it sounded like a chill on his back, and he felt a chill all over.
I almost shivered.
As a bodyguard, his job is to exchange his life for money, so he shouldn't be so vulnerable.
But recent events have made him realize that even if he keeps all the secrets, his family will not get any compensation.
That's why he seems to be very careful about his life and no longer loyal.
He was obviously able to listen to Syrio Recchi's warning.
Since everything about Raymond Eddie has been explained before, there is obviously no need to be stubborn now.
“I…I understand!
I will tell the truth."
Syrio Regis didn't want to talk too much with him, so he asked directly and bluntly:
"Then tell me what you know!"
"He...he was...killed in an assassination attempt."
"Tell me clearly what assassination attempt led to his death.
Now that we are asking about you, do you still think you can hide it? Tell the truth."
"It is...it is...it is an attempt to assassinate General Fang Lang, the commander-in-chief of the Navy's First Fleet."
"Time and place."
"May 26, São Paulo."
"Who is the mastermind?"
"Raymond Eddy, Director of Public Security of the Brazilian National Police."
Cirio Reci was well prepared for this answer. He very much hoped to get answers here to the questions that concerned him and his boss the most.
So, he tried to keep his tone unchanged and continued to ask:
"What's the reason? Why did he plan this assassination?"
The question gave Davis Barry a brief pause, and just when Cirio Recchi thought there was no answer.
The other party seemed to recall it before continuing:
“I don’t know the exact reason.
But...from what I heard from their discussion, it seems to be related to the dominance of the police system.
It seems that General Fang has extended his hand into the Eddie Family’s sphere of influence.”
Hearing this unexpected answer, Cyrio Ricci immediately remembered the so-called Police Club.
Didn’t General Fang’s intervention in the police system lead to the elimination of the Yakubu family in Natal?
Think about the woman named Mizuno Reiko, who was also given by the Yakub family to Krejci Eddie, the Deputy Minister of Justice.
It seems that the rumor in Natal that the Yakubu family has a deep background in Rio de Janeiro is not groundless!
It turned out to be this Eddie Family.
It is unlikely that the Eddie family would directly assassinate a naval fleet commander for the sake of the Yakub family.
However, Fang Lang took a series of actions later, such as forcing all police officers to participate in training and opening police schools.
The policy that requires all police officers in Natal to graduate from the police academy or undergo police academy training has made the Eddy family feel a huge crisis and challenge.
This should be what Davis Barry just said, reaching out into the Eddie family's sphere of influence!
But from the perspective of people like Cirio Reci who are on Fang Lang's side, this is not a matter of infringing on the interests of your Eddie family.
Instead, it contributes to the advancement of the police system.
Therefore, in his eyes, the Eddie family's behavior of regarding Brazil's police system as their own private sphere of influence and not allowing others to interfere is simply an unforgivable crime.
The other party was even more furious as they wanted to assassinate Fang Lang because of his actions in rectifying the police system.
But now was the time to interrogate Davis Barry, and he could only keep these thoughts to himself.
The anger in his eyes flashed away, and he continued to look at the other party calmly and said:
"You just mentioned their discussion. Who are they specifically?"
Davis Barry didn't dare to look at the other party's reaction at this time, but when he heard this question, he didn't hesitate.
He continued to answer:
"Mr. Brisso Eddy and Raymond Eddy, the Eddy brothers.
And some of Mr. Craigie Eddy's old men."
"That means Mr. Brisso Eddy was also involved in the plan to assassinate General Fang, right?"
“Whether he was involved in the planning or not, I don’t know.
But you should be aware of it.”
"Are all the old men of Mr. Craigie Eddy that you are talking about members of the Police Club?"
At this time, Davis Barry was no longer surprised when he heard the other party mention the Police Club.
He nodded very calmly and said:
“Yes, Mr. Raymond Eddy is now the president of the Police Club.
Mr. Brisso Eddy is no longer involved in the affairs of the Police Club and seems to be preparing to go into politics.
The focus now is to assist former President Vargas in developing the Labor Party.”
“So, this so-called Police Club is a tool used by the Eddy family to control the Brazilian police system, right?”
“Uh! I’m not sure about that, I’m just a bodyguard.
If you want to know the real core secrets of the Eddie family, there is someone who can answer it for you."
"Oh! Tell me, who is this person?"
"The Eddy family's butler, Boots David, an old man who has served their family for nearly forty years."
Cyrio Reich didn't know this person, but he believed that Davis Barry would not lie about such things.
Nodded and said:
"So what do you know about this police club?"
“Uh! I don’t know much, but as far as I know, this club didn’t seem to be founded by Eddie’s family.
It was Mr. Credo Eddy who took over the operation of the club after the police reform.”
Seeing that the other party really had no more information to provide, Sirio Recchi nodded.
Now I know what I want to know most.
All that remains is to report to Fang Lang, and then start formulating a counterattack plan against the Eddie family.
On the other hand, interrogating Vox was actually very simple.
This is just a gangster and has no affiliation with the Eddie family at all.
However, engaging in illegal arms trade will result in him facing a long prison sentence.
But when all the evidence was placed in front of him, he no longer had any room for denial.
Especially when he was told that he could get a reduced sentence if he was willing to serve as a witness and identify Raymond Eddy.
He told everything he knew almost without hesitation.
Soon, two interrogation records were placed in front of Fang Lang.
Seeing the contents inside, Fang Lang remained silent for a long time.
He didn't expect that the reason why the Eddy family attacked him was because of his reorganization of the Natal police system.
Of course, this may be just one of the reasons.
But this also indirectly proves the filthiness of politics and the despicable means used by the Eddie family.
In Fang Lang's impression, political opponents should be killed through political means.
Fang Lang didn't know what kind of person Credo Eddie was.
But his son is indeed not a qualified politician, and he would resort to such low-level means as assassination to deal with him at every turn.
Then don't blame yourself for killing him.
I didn't understand why the other party attacked me, and I still had some doubts.
But now we have a general direction and solid evidence.
Fang Lang was about to start seriously considering how to bring the entire Eddie family down to dust.
Within the time it took to finish a cup of tea, a complete plan had taken shape in Fang Lang's mind.
Walking to the desk, Fang Lang made a call.
"Mr. Anderson, our TV station is on the air. Do you have any explosive news materials ready?"
“This isn’t explosive enough, I have some proper news here.
Please arrange for a film crew to come over!"
"Don't worry, this news is definitely explosive enough."
"Oh! You're coming here in person?"
"No problem. I just happen to have two ideas that I want to discuss with you. I believe they will make our TV station soar to fame."
"Well, I'll wait for you in Natal."
Then, Fang Lang called his younger brother Fang Tao.
"Tao'er, the Brazilian Times is now the largest newspaper in Brazil, right?"
"That's good. Arrange for two of the best political journalists to come to Natal to see me tomorrow.
I have a big news here that needs to be released through them.”
"You come here by yourself? No problem, then you and Mr. Anderson can come together!"
After hanging up the two calls, a smile began to appear on Fang Lang's lips.
The media empire that he had set up in advance could finally begin to play a role.
Mr. Eddie, are you ready to face the criticism from public opinion?
I hope you like this gift.
