A busiest evening that after this probably was Thomas joined guard unit, passed, the guard teams leader one have not closed the eyes all night, the guard unit just caught one group of heathens in the city, garrisoned here to have the common people residence to set on fire, the fighting bravely fire after two magic was suppressed finally, later did not have the guard teams leader expected, really discovered the corpse in inside, moreover these had 15 to have time fully, the corpse without exception by changing beyond all recognition that the fire burnt, was hard to identify the status. 这大概是托马斯加入警卫队后所度过的最忙碌的一晚,卫队队长一整夜都没有合眼,警卫队刚刚在城中抓到一伙异教徒,警备所这边就有民居被人纵火,经过两个魔法时的奋战大火终于被扑灭,之后不出卫队队长的所料,果然在里面发现了尸体,而且这一次足有十五具,尸体无一例外被大火烧的面目全非,难以辨认出身份。 This number makes Thomas fearful and apprehensive, over 15 people of homicide cases have nearly ten years not to appear in Gourde Lees city, but this has not calculated, raises Qianwei team leader to receive an urgent report in Sun, discovered in a small park in coast six unknown corpses, in these corpses with the scene of fire, these corpses were also fired the hard coke without exception. 这个数字让托马斯心惊肉跳,超过十五人的命案在古德里斯城中已经有近十年没有出现过了吧,而这还不算完,在太阳升起前卫队队长又接到一份紧急报告,在一座沿海的小公园中还发现了六具不明身份的尸体,和火场中那些尸体一样,这些尸体无一例外也被烧成了焦炭。 The town council still held the special session early morning for this reason, ordered the second guard unit to be responsible for investigating these two crimes, the pressure of guard team leader was very big, the guard unit also issued the urgent notice, however later two days passed by, did not have the resident to report, seemed in the city no one to be missing to be the same radically. 市议会为此还在一大早召开了特别会议,责令第二警卫队负责调查这两起凶案,卫队队长的压力很大,警卫队这边也发布了紧急通知,然而之后两天过去了,却始终没有居民来报案,就好像城中根本没有人失踪一样。 Dimon placed on findings Thomas's desk, „that side Gagarin has no progress, that old fox is never willing to work with us, stated categorically own anything does not know, is only complaint in meals is not good, according to stipulation, we, if could not find him with the relations of these two things, can only put him to leave to tonight at the latest.” 戴蒙将一份调查结果放在了托马斯的办公桌上,“加加林那边还是没有什么进展,那只老狐狸始终不愿意跟我们合作,一口咬定自己什么都不知道,只是一个劲儿的抱怨所里的伙食不好,按照规定,我们如果找不到他和这两件事情的关系,最迟到今晚就只能放他离开了。” The guard teams leader are not about this result surprised, in fact he suspected the senior magician knows are less than the guard unit many, after all nearby he was knocked down to throw into others backyard, this explained the person who begins does not want him to know, matter. 卫队队长对于这个结果并不感到意外,实际上他怀疑老魔法师知道的并不比警卫队多多少,毕竟他是被人打晕丢进附近人家的后院里,这就说明动手的人不想要他知道之后所发生的事情。 „Moreover, just like the previous time, serious that quite fire little building destroyed, the scene almost could not find any useful clue, the one who suspected the arson was the same person, was right, the house-owner was a drunkard, has owed Gagarin money, but has not directly related to show that little building was concerned with Gagarin, actually that side park, from cotton material that on a corpse survived, seemed like Lionheart Empire that side craft, this group of people were very likely from the north.” Deputy team chief, „. Moreover the design of clothes seems like the style of aristocrat.” “另外,和上次一样,着火的小楼毁坏的比较严重,现场几乎找不到什么有用的线索,怀疑纵火的是同一人,哦对了,房主是个酒鬼,欠过加加林钱,但是并没有直接关系能证明那栋小楼和加加林有关,倒是公园那边,从其中一具尸体上残存的布料来看,似乎是狮心帝国那边的工艺,这伙人很有可能是从北方过来的。”副队长顿了顿,“而且衣服的款式看起来像是贵族的风格。” Thomas is not surprised, before he had analyzed by this group of people, since can evade the search of guard unit in the city, without the help of local influence definitely is not possible, the aristocrat, among some big aristocrats often has the complicated relation particularly, moreover they will also prop up some local young aristocrats in some important places as the puppet. 托马斯并不感到意外,之前他就分析过以这伙人既然可以在城中躲过警卫队的搜查,没有当地势力的帮助肯定是不可能的,贵族,尤其是一些大贵族间往往都是是有着千丝万缕的联系的,而且在一些重要的地方他们还会扶植一些当地的小贵族作为傀儡。 However as the matter stands the matter became more complex, this group of people had no fear of great distances to arrive at Gourde Lees, moreover intentionally hid own identity, behind this is hiding what secret obviously, but they died near Gagarin family/home, the guard teams leader felt the pressure again. 不过这样一来事情就变得更复杂了,这伙人不远万里来到古德里斯,而且还刻意隐瞒了自己的身份,这背后显然隐藏着什么秘密,而他们又在加加林家附近死去,卫队队长再次感觉到了压力。 But at this moment, the front door of his office was opened by a person suddenly, a man of steward appearance disregards the stop of person, this walked directly, in two people to room nods, later looked up to the guard team leader, the light say/way, „Chief Thomas, Count Nathan was invited.” 而就在这时,他办公室的大门突然被一把人推开,一个管家模样的男人无视身旁人的阻拦,就这样径直走了进来,冲屋内的两人点了点头,之后抬头看向了卫队队长,淡淡道,“托马斯队长,内森伯爵有请。” The tone of opposite party is polite, however said these words is the unquestionable tone says, obviously this steward not to the opportunity that the guard the team leader rejected, in fact he also knows that the opposite party was not possible to reject. 对方的语气还算客气,然而说出这句话却是不容置疑的口吻说出来的,显然这位管家并没有给卫队队长拒绝的机会,实际上他也知道对方是不可能拒绝的。 Because in this city, dares to refuse the humanities of Count Nathan is not many. 因为在这座城市中,敢拒绝内森伯爵的人本就不多。 When two magics, Thomas returns the garrison institute, the complexion is very gloomy, Dimon approach, „team leader, I found a clue, Gagarin once through one group of underground influences said that has made the contact some time ago with another gang......” 两个魔法时后托马斯重新回到警备所,脸色很是阴沉,戴蒙迎上来,“队长,我又找到了一个线索,加加林不久前曾经通过一伙地下势力放出话来和另一伙人进行过联系……” However he has not thought that Thomas actually beckons with the hand, broke him directly, „this case had ended, later do not check again.” 然而他没想到托马斯却是摆了摆手,直接打断了他,“这个案子已经结束了,以后都不要再查了。” „Why?” Dimon hears word is startled, suspected that own ear has problems, „before team leader you, had said that the nature of this case is very bad, how does the murderer several commit murder is held...... such words we to give a Gourde Lees's people confession?” “为什么？”戴蒙闻言一怔,怀疑自己的耳朵出了问题,“队长你之前也说过的吧,这起案件的性质很恶劣,凶手几番行凶都没有被抓住……这样的话我们怎么给古德里斯的民众一个交代？” „Confession...... naturally has the above person to give, we must do after is stops all investigations, concentrates on other cases.” Thomas's look seemingly unprecedented exhausted. “交代……自然有上面的人来给,我们要做的就是停止之后的所有调查,把精力放在其他的案子上吧。”托马斯的神色看起来前所未有的疲惫。 The Dimon also some not indignation, „is this the meaning of meaning or Count Nathan of parliament?” 戴蒙还有些不忿,“这是议会的意思还是内森伯爵自己的意思？” Thomas knits the brows, „this time, even if, later this words do not say again, parliament the meaning of meaning still good Count Nathan is not we can violate, I know that you are thinking anything, but the justice not every will attend one time, this time clarified let alone is the matter between aristocrats, was not we can meddle, at least in Gourde Lees city not resident but, therefore was injured, therefore this result I can also accept, this matter on stopping.” 托马斯皱了皱眉,“这一次就算了,以后这种话都不要再说了,无论是议会的意思也好还是内森伯爵的意思也罢都不是我们能违背的,我知道你在想什么,但是正义并不是每一次都会出席的,更何况这次摆明了是贵族间的事情,不是我们能插手的,至少古德里斯城中没有居民因此而受伤,所以这结果我也能接受,这件事情就到此为止了吧。” Dimon silent long time, suddenly opens the mouth saying that „because of that anonymous letter?” 戴蒙沉默了半晌,突然开口道,“是不是因为那封匿名信？” „Un?” Thomas is just about to leave, hears word stopped the footsteps. “嗯？”托马斯正要离开,闻言又停下了脚步。 „According to team leader your request, I reported the matter of anonymous letter to the town council, the town council had been starting preparing to investigate this matter recently, however I actually heard that this morning the parliament dismissed the investigation group.” “按照队长您的要求,我将匿名信的事情上报给了市议会,市议会最近已经在着手准备调查这件事情了,然而今天上午我却听说议会又解散了调查小组。” „What therefore you want to say that suspected that what I and Count Nathan am making to trade in private?” Thomas turns around, tranquil say/way. “所以你想说什么,怀疑我和内森伯爵在私下做了什么交易？”托马斯转过身来,平静道。 „No, I believe the team leader, I worried the team leader you were forced by these shameless powerful officials.” Dimon's tone is somewhat excited. “不,我相信队长,我只是担心队长你被那些无耻的权贵胁迫。”戴蒙的语气有些激动。 „Group was dismissed is because had finished regarding my investigation, the town council thinks that I am not suitable again the duty that is the team leader, the contribution that considering that these years I make, the town council decides to award me the title of honor aristocrat, simultaneously assigns to the harbor to assist Baron Ismail to conduct the tax administration me, in view of the fact that the right candidate has not taken over my position at present, therefore the transfer order can only postpone, seemed like me also to in the garrison treat previous some time, ok, the truth that you want to know I have told you, nothing words continued to go back to work.”. “小组之所以被解散是因为对于我的调查已经结束了,市议会认为我不适宜再担任队长的职务,不过考虑到这些年来我所作出的贡献,市议会决定授予我荣誉贵族的头衔,同时将我调往港口协助伊斯梅尔男爵进行税务管理,但是鉴于目前并没有合适的人选接任我的位置,所以调令只能暂缓,看起来我还要在警备所待上一段时间,好了,你想知道的真相我已经都告诉你了,没什么事情的话就继续回去工作吧。”。 Dimon's look is somewhat awkward, „team leader, I do not intend to suspect you......” 戴蒙的神色有些尴尬,“队长,我不是有意怀疑你……” Thomas beckons with the hand finally, hints him not to need to talk too much, but thinks to supplement, „knows why initially I found you , because on you some qualities make me appreciate very much, especially you regarding the insistence of justice and truth, this quality are getting more and more rare in this city now, but I do not know that actually now my choice is to is wrong, will get down your sense of justice sooner or later to kill your own, will want to sit to this position, the light will have the sense of justice is insufficient, you also need first learned compromise and sacrifice.” 托马斯终摆了摆手,示意他无需多言,不过想了想还是又补充了一句,“知道当初我为什么找到你吗,就是因为你身上的一些品质让我很欣赏,尤其你对于正义和真相的坚持,这种品质如今在这座城市中已经越来越少见了,但是现在我也不知道自己的选择究竟是对是错,这么下去你的正义感早晚有一天会害死你自己的,想要坐到这个位置,光有正义感是不够的,你还需要先学会妥协和牺牲。”
