Looking at President Dutra's frustrated look, General Moraes unconsciously gave him a thumbs up in his heart.
No wonder you were able to rise from being the Minister of the Army to the President of Brazil.
What a great acting skill you have. If you hadn't ordered me personally to pin the blame on the Eddie family, I would have almost believed it.
President Dutra is also very satisfied with General Morais at this moment.
As expected, he is the Minister of Defense appointed by me personally, who actually announced this matter under such circumstances.
In this way, there is no need for deliberate publicity. The entire Brazilian government knows that the incident of Japanese mobs attacking the presidential palace has nothing to do with Dutra.
It's all the fault of the damn Eddie family.
Even better, the motives of both parties were so convincing.
That Japanese female spy named Mizuno Korei really makes the best use of her resources!
...
...
"Yes, Mr. President,
According to Raymond Eddy's confession, this Japanese woman named Mizuno Korei was a Japanese spy. "
General Moraes' expression remained calm as he nodded seriously in response to President Dutra.
President Dutra slammed his fist on the table in front of him and gritted his teeth:
"These damn Japanese sent so many spies to our country.
What on earth do they want to do? "
The government officials around them all looked grim, and the Minister of Justice gritted his teeth and said:
“No wonder the Eddie family would do such a thing, it turns out they are spies.
It seems we have all been deceived by them.”
This statement obviously wants to tell everyone that it is not our Ministry of Justice itself that has problems, but that the enemy is too cunning.
The Eddy family itself is a spy family, and the Ministry of Justice has been deceived.
At this time, he still did not forget to pick himself up, which made others sneer.
General Morais looked at the Attorney General with a hint of disdain on his face.
He continued to report:
“In addition to this incident, Raymond Eddy confessed another thing.
But now, I am not sure whether this is true.
Further careful investigation may be needed.”
Hearing this, President Dutra frowned. The blame for the Japanese mob's attack on the presidential palace had been placed on the Eddie family.
Why has another incident come up now?
Could it be that the Ministry of Defense has other charges against the Eddie family that they need to bear?
That shouldn't be the case! He hadn't heard of any comments that were unfavorable to the Minister of Defense!
After looking General Morais up and down, he said with anger:
"What? What else did he confess? Why are you so unsure?"
After coughing lightly, General Morais glanced at the Minister of Justice and said:
"Because what he confessed is somewhat different from what the Attorney General just reported?
So, I am not sure whether his confession is true or false.”
This time it wasn't just the President who frowned.
The leaders of the Ministry of Justice all frowned, not understanding what General Morais meant.
The minister's forehead was covered with sweat, and he began to think carefully about what he had just reported, which was inconsistent with what Raymond Eddie confessed.
Could it be that there are other hidden spies in the Ministry of Justice? Or is it that the influence of the Eddy family is not limited to the police system?
For a moment, the Attorney General's heart tightened and he swallowed hard.
Then his heart tightened. No way! It can't be such a coincidence!
The situation just reported couldn’t be about the assassination of General Fang Lang!
This Eddie family should have nothing to do with General Fang Lang!
There is no reason why the other party would participate in the assassination of General Fang Lang!
Could it be that Chief Hodges was really just a scapegoat, who was forced to confess by his own investigation team?
Thinking of this, the Attorney General felt terrible.
President Dutra's curiosity was aroused, and he said with a puzzled look:
"Oh! Since he confessed, you want to tell us so that we can have some reference."
General Morais glanced at everyone, then at the Minister of Justice, whose forehead was covered with sweat, and slowly spoke:
"According to Raymond Eddy's account, this Japanese spy named Mizuno Korei was sent to Craig Eddy by a man named Yakubu.
And this guy named Yakubu was the former deputy chief of the Natal Police Department.
During the period when General Fang was in charge of military rule in Natal, the Yakubu family was completely eradicated by General Fang and the local police system was reorganized.
This behavior made Raymond Eddie feel offended, so the organization planned an assassination attempt on General Fang.
Unfortunately, this operation failed and was avoided by General Fang."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at the Attorney General.
At this moment, the Attorney General wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
In my heart, I had already cursed everyone in the Ministry of Justice investigation team.
Du Zhong even murmured:
"Ah! This... this... the investigation team below did report it.
The chief named Mr. Hodges confessed his guilt!"
"I'm afraid he was tortured into confessing!"
"If you wanted to confess, you should have done it long ago! Why wait until now!"
"That's right. It's such a simple frame-up. Anyone with eyesight can see it. But the people in the Ministry of Justice are just turning a deaf ear to it."
"That means there are followers of the Eddy family in the Ministry of Justice!"
"Who says it's not true? You know, Craig Eddy was once the Deputy Minister of Justice."
"I heard that as soon as the Ministry of Justice investigation team took over the investigation, the only suspect who was captured alive was silenced."
"It's clear that the Ministry of Justice also has problems!"
The people around him were hesitating and talking like a knife, stabbing the Attorney General's wound, causing a mouthful of blood to get stuck in his throat and he almost vomited blood.
Fortunately, the President did not want to replace his Attorney General now. He coughed twice and said:
"Ahem! Okay, everyone be quiet.
It seems that Raymond Eddy is quite honest, and the case of General Fang's assassination has been solved.
He had arranged for someone to assassinate General Fang, but now the assassination failed and he himself fell into General Fang's hands.
This can also be considered as the cycle of life and death.
Now that Raymond Eddy has confessed his crimes,
Then we should seize the time and convene a military court as soon as possible to try his case."
Just when President Dutra wanted to end the topic here, the Deputy Minister of Justice, who had been silent, stepped forward and whispered something in the Minister of Justice's ear.
The Minister of Justice, who was sweating profusely and looking like he was going to die on the spot, rolled his eyes and looked at the Deputy Minister with some surprise after hearing what he said.
I saw the other person nodding at me.
The Minister of Justice gritted his teeth and spoke again:
“Mr. President, I heard that in addition to Raymond Eddy, the Eddy family also has an older brother named Briso Eddy.
This Brisso Eddy did not work in the government, but served as secretary general of the Labour Party.
We have the trust of Mr. Vargas, the chairman of the Labor Party. Should we also make this public?"
When President Dutra heard this, he immediately understood what the other party wanted to express.
Obviously, the intention is to use this incident to strike a blow against the opposition Labour Party and weaken its rapidly rising political advantage.
President Dutra had long known about Briso Edi's situation, and this guy had already been arrested and interrogated by the Intelligence Bureau.
I just don't know whether the other party is involved in these things.
However, since they have been arrested, there is no reason to release them, otherwise he would not have directly accused Eddie's family of treason.
The officials of this government are all non-Labor Party members, and everyone is on the same side on issues against the Labour Party.
So, upon hearing this, the President did not express any opinion, but other officials had already begun to talk about it and were ready to take action.
The President knew that he should express his opinion at this time, otherwise if he allowed his subordinates to act recklessly, it might cause unnecessary chaos.
Therefore, he coughed lightly and said:
“I know this Mr. Brisso Eddy, he is a very capable secretary general.
He was also among those arrested this time.
General Morais, I wonder if your investigation has revealed that Mr. Brisso Eddy was involved in these matters?"
The military does not belong to any political party, so generally speaking, the military's investigation results are more convincing.
Hearing President Dutra's question, General Morais nodded and replied:
“After our investigation, we have not found that Mr. Briso Eddy is involved in these cases.
According to Raymond Eddy, his brother was not aware of these circumstances either.”
President Dutra frowned at this. He had not thought about how to use Briso Eddy to deal with the Labor Party.
The most that can be done is to eliminate Briso Eddy and weaken the power of the Labour Party.
But now when he heard the results of the investigation, he felt something was wrong.
Living under the same roof, his father has problems, his brother has problems, how could he not have problems?
This is unacceptable.
He smiled and said:
“It seems that this Raymond Eddie is ready to take all the blame on himself!
Don’t they understand that once someone in the family is found guilty of treason or espionage, even if other family members are not involved?
Is there no chance to participate in political activities?"
Since the President wanted to blame Craig Eddie for the Japanese mob's attack on the presidential palace, there was no way he would allow his eldest son to be safe and sound.
The reason why he did not want to use Brisso Eddy's identity in the Labour Party to attack the Labour Party was because he wanted to keep the impact of this incident within a controllable range.
The chairman of the Labor Party is the previous president Vargas, although Vargas was ousted by the National Alliance and the Social Democratic Party for manipulating the election.
But this does not mean that President Vargas' influence in the government has declined.
On the contrary, the Labour Party has been very active recently and is showing signs of resurgence.
In this situation, President Dutra does not want to turn this matter into a political struggle between parties.
If things go wrong, this government may end up being branded as one that suppresses other parties.
But this Brisso Eddy said he knew nothing about these things, not to mention whether the President believed it or not.
Even if he believed it, he would not allow Briso Eddie to pick him out.
After all, he knew very well in his mind that the so-called involvement of Krech Eddy's organization in the Japanese mob's siege of the Presidential Palace was simply something he instructed the Ministry of National Defense to impose.
Once this Briso Eddie leaves prison, some unnecessary trouble may arise.
General Morais obviously understood what President Dutra meant, so he continued calmly:
“Just because we haven’t found any problems with Briso Eddy yet doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any problems.
Although, Raymond Eddy took all the blame on himself.
But according to the results we got from Boots David, the butler of the Eddy family, this Briso Eddy also has a lot of problems. "
As to what the specific problem was, General Morais did not say more.
President Dutra did not ask any more questions.
The current situation is very clear. How can there be absolutely clean people in such a political family?
Some things cannot withstand investigation, so let an intelligence agency specifically find problems with one person and convict him.
It really couldn't be easier.
Nodding, President Dutra understood and said:
“Now that the problem has been discovered, let’s get to the bottom of it.
We will never allow a family that has committed treason to escape sanctions and go unpunished.
Do you understand? "
"Yes, Mr. President!"
General Morais nodded without hesitation.
If it is something else, he won't get too involved.
But since it involved treason, he would never allow such a person to escape punishment alive.
If President Dutra wanted to get him involved and use this incident to stir up party disputes, he would definitely not agree.
But the other party's intention was obviously just to target the Eddie family, so their goals were the same.
So he nodded without hesitation.
Just as a group of bigwigs were discussing in the Operations Hall of the Ministry of Defense how to reward Fang Lang and punish the Eddie family.
Fang Lang has already landed on the Fernando de Noronha Islands, accompanied by a group of naval generals.
Looking at the messy battlefield and the soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield.
Fang Lang said with some emotion:
“It’s such a waste to use such a large island to exile prisoners.
The location of this island is very important, although it does not have a suitable deep-water port and cannot accommodate large warships.
However, it is not a big problem to park some small fishing boats.
We can blast and expand this small port to make it easier for our fishing boats to stop here for supplies and move towards the deeper ocean.
At the same time, we can build a military airport here as a transit station for our aircraft.
If used well, the cruising range of our aircraft will extend deep into the Atlantic Ocean, blocking the shipping lanes of the North Atlantic and the South Atlantic.
Expanding our Brazilian presence in the Atlantic.
De La Torre, your staff needs to think carefully about this issue and come up with a truly feasible plan.
When the time comes, a document will be submitted to the Ministry of Defense.”
In fact, this is not the first time Fang Lang has proposed such an idea.
Unfortunately, this place does not fall under their jurisdiction, so it is difficult for them to intervene.
But the situation is different now. Since the island has been recaptured by them, they will have to stay on the island and clear out the remnants of the enemy.
More importantly, after this incident, the police headquarters probably would not continue to keep this island as a place of exile.
This was a good opportunity for him to implement his plan.
