Chapter 44 Investigation
Enrique is indeed dead.
He himself was seriously injured and his body was fragile. He fought fiercely and was hit by three crossbow arrows, one of which penetrated his abdomen and damaged his organs.
Enrique would vomit blood and die suddenly after injuries were added to injuries, without even a chance to save him.
Link stared at Enrique's body and was silent for a long time.
Jasmine took off her cloak, walked forward, and stood beside Link, her eyes full of worry.
Killing is no small matter.
Unless they have a cold nature, few people are immune to the effects of killing.
Link felt that he not only killed Enrique, but also killed part of himself.
Closing his eyes, taking a deep breath, Link activated "Occlumency" and used the sword of wisdom to cut away distracting thoughts.
"I'm fine."
Link turned to Jasmine with a relaxed smile, took the cloak she handed him, turned off the optical invisibility, and put it on his body, "Let's go, there will be a lot of trouble in the future."
Chao Xuan was not far away . The intelligent law enforcement puppet signaled, and Link led Jasmine to the administrative building.
Portable Intelligence has been notified before that Link and Jasmine need to go to the "School Disputes and Accident Investigation and Mediation Office" to accept questioning and investigation.
If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows.
Link admitted that he did have murderous intentions towards Enrique and indeed killed Enrique, but this did not mean that there were any irregularities in his handling.
No matter how biased your stance is, you can't find anything wrong with Link's series of responses after the attack.
Therefore, Link walked into the "School Dispute and Accident Investigation and Mediation Office" calmly. Although he did not hold his head high, he did not shrink back.
"Link Grande, Jasmine Kidman, please briefly describe what happened."
In the office, sitting behind the desk is an old man with white hair, wearing a badge representing the official wizard status on the chest of his robe.
The old man's hair was combed meticulously, his face was expressionless, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pulled down, making him look extremely serious.
As soon as the two entered the office, they were directly asked to make a statement without any detente.
Link did not panic and said: "After dinner, Jasmine and I went to the library to study as usual.
Entering the tree-lined path, I noticed that there was a murderous intention targeting us in the dark, so I immediately pulled Jasmine to hide and hide. Transferred and asked Jasmine to report to the college.
The intelligent law enforcement puppet has not yet arrived, and the people who ambush us launched another attack on us.
In order to escape, I started to deal with the opponent. The opponent
pursued me, and I had no choice but to fight back. Finally, in He accidentally killed the other party during the fight."
Jasmine added at this time: "Classmate Link had to fight back after the other party continued to attack several times." The
old man did not comment on the two people's words and asked: "The name of the deceased Do you know Enrique Bernalis? What is the relationship? Are there any conflicts?"
Jasmine responded proactively: "I once joined the 'New Blood Mutual Aid Association' and met Enrique there, and we had several encounters. It was a brief conversation, but it has nothing to do with it. As for the conflict, there is no direct conflict."
"Really?"
The old man turned to look at Link, "According to the investigation, Enrique Bernalis was once raped by Rivers. "Francis' commission threatened you, and you also launched corresponding retaliation. What is your explanation for this?"
Link responded calmly: "I don't think it is revenge. I just communicated with Mina Haverchuk and River respectively. Francis had a candid exchange and expressed my views on certain matters, without taking any retaliatory action against anyone throughout the process."
After a pause, Link showed a little edge: "If you or the college have investigated the entire incident, such as the whole story of Enrique Bernalis threatening me, such as what Rivers Francis did, For example, Mina Haverchuk's encounters and secret actions in it may be able to have a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding." "Well
..."
the old man pondered, looking at Link intently, his face expressionless, his eyes as calm as There is no wave in the ancient well, but it is breathtaking.
Link used his "Occlumency" at full power to resist the invisible pressure and torture from the old man.
"You have a good character."
After a long while, seeing that Link never flinched, the old man said softly.
I don’t know if he was praising him or if he had a deeper meaning.
After a while, the office computer on the desk received the on-site investigation report from the intelligent law enforcement puppet.
This report is presented in the form of pictures, texts and videos. Based on the traces at the scene, it basically restores the battle process between Link and Enrique.
"Calm and calm, resolute and courageous, he responds appropriately and uses tactics well."
The old man glanced at the report, with some admiration in his eyes. He seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to say it specifically to Link, "He is a combat expert. A good seedling."
Faced with the vague praise, Link remained silent, and there was no trace of pride on his face.
When dealing with this kind of people who are very sophisticated at first glance, you must be more cautious.
You think he is sincerely complimenting you, but in fact he just wants you to let down your guard.
Every word, every expression, every movement, every look in his eyes has his intention.
If you are not careful or unprepared, you will fall into the hole he dug for you.
The old man didn't take it seriously and continued to talk: "This 'thorn entanglement' was used very well. It was planned early and a fatal blow at the critical moment. Not bad, really good."
Suddenly, the old man asked: "Jasmine Kidman, what role do you think Mina Havchuk played in Enrique Bernalis's attack on you and Link Grande?" ?
As far as I know, Enrique Bernalis went to Mina Havcek several times before he attacked you.
And Mina Havcek gave you a relatively detailed plan before you were attacked. A subtle reminder."
This question has a trap. If you answer it slightly wrong, it's easy to get word-picking.
Link opened his mouth, preparing to answer for Jasmine.
The old man's eyes moved slightly, and he glanced at Link with his peripheral vision.
Suddenly, a mountain-like pressure fell on Link, so overwhelming that he could hardly breathe, let alone speak out.
Jasmine was completely unaware of what happened to Link. She lowered her head and thought for a moment before calmly replying: "I don't know what happened between Mina Haverchuk and Enrique Bernalis, and I don't know either. What is Bernalis thinking? But as far as the result is concerned, I am very grateful that she can give me a reminder, even if the reminder is subtle." "Really?" Hearing the words, the
old
man finally showed a subtle and imperceptible hint. The smile also loosened the hold on Link.
He waved his hand and suddenly read out the verdict of this investigation in a serious tone: "After investigation, Link Grande accidentally injured Enrique Bernalis in the process of self-defense in order to protect himself.
En The cause of death of Rick Bernalis was the recurrence of an old injury.
Therefore, Link Grande is found not guilty."
