Chapter 66 Hatred(1/2)
Among the green trees just north of Arlington Cemetery, there is a red brick house hidden. It is separated from Arlington Cemetery by a circle of low red brick walls. The whole atmosphere is low-key and solemn.
If it weren't for the towering chimney, people wouldn't have associated this place with the funeral home at all.
This is the highest-level funeral home in the United States. The soldiers and generals who died in business, as well as important figures, can be sent here to hold a memorial service, which is absolutely the last peak of life.
However, many dead people are not qualified to be buried in Arlington Cemetery, and they can be sent here, or maybe just because of convenience.
The nineteen dead people in Villa Remy were sent to the funeral home because they died in Langley, who was not far away.
Most of them died without a complete body. After being shot, they were lit with a fire, burning beyond recognition.
After careful identification, these deceased people were able to determine their identities one by one. According to their identities, they were only sorted out after collecting all the evidence.
One day cannot resolve the grief of the death of relatives. This night is another sleepless night.
With stars dotted, Scott Remy could no longer bear the crying of his relatives, so he came to a row of chairs in the courtyard and looked up at the starry sky.
Emmeton Remi is his brother and the host of this generation of this family. He is smart and capable, leading the gradually declining Remi family to become a member of the upper class again.
In Congress, he is a New Hampshire lawmaker, presided over the operation of more than ten committees.
In the family, he is the backbone of everyone and guides the family's rapid development in the business field.
Although he was a brother, Scott respected his elder brother as much as his father, but he encountered this tragedy when he was just over fifty.
He clearly remembered that a month ago, several professors from the Science and Technology Committee visited their homes and mentioned that a young genius appeared in Xiangjiang, who applied for 150 patents at one time.
These patents not only fill the gaps in the current electronics and computer fields, but also guide the future development direction of these two industries.
Everyone was excited about this discovery, and they had regarded these patents as the next trend.
But why did it become like this?
First, Professor Filson and his friends went to Xiangjiang, where they lost their lives, and then the tragedy of last night.
Because of coveting these technologies, they have not yet gained any of them, and have lost twenty-three lives.
No, it's far more.
The twenty-three people were just the losses of their camp, as well as the Hawks and Japanese people, so far, have lost more than eighty lives.
Moreover, at least half of these eighty people are big names representing different forces.
Even so far, no one knows who made the move.
Whether it was the night of the 11th or the night of the 12th, including the action last night, Evan Zhao had evidence of absenteeism.
The banquet was still held at his home on the 11th, and on the evening of the 12th, he was entertaining the Governor of the Hong Kong Republic. Last night, he was also under the surveillance of the CIA.
His phone, radio waves, and all communication methods are monitored. How did he arrange all this?
I originally thought that this young man who was less than eighteen years old was a lamb, but now everyone realizes that he is a real evil wolf.
But it was too late to discover this, and his brother had left him forever because of this lesson.
This is a consequence that the Remi family will never accept, and it cannot be accepted!
Even if the other party is a wolve, they will take him to hell together.
It was almost dawn, but the temperature was still hot, and Scott breathed a sigh of relief, as if he wanted to relieve his depression, but it made his body feel exhausted.
It has been more than thirty hours since yesterday and he has not had a rest.
A moment of sleepiness came. He closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap, but heard footsteps coming.
His assistant Carey came together with his brother's assistant Gavin. Gavin was on the phone while Carey was holding his cell phone in his hand.
"Scott, I just received the news that Arlington police had just released Evan Zhao."
He had long anticipated this point, and there was almost no evidence left on the scene. If the other party had not deliberately used the weapon of murder in Xiangjiang, they could not even associate the case with Filson in Xiangjiang's death.
There is no physical evidence or evidence, and Evan Zhao has dozens of lawyers under his command. More importantly, the media is paying full attention now, so the police can only release him.
Gavin walked closer, hung up the phone, hesitated for a while before saying: "Scott, Congress's consultations on Langley's violence were very unhappy, and today's overnight discussion came to an end. They were very shocked by the death of the senator and would put huge pressure on all walks of life to solve the case. However, in terms of attitude towards Evan Zhao, their attitude is now very ambiguous."
Scott gave up his seat next to him, looked at the outline of the coffin lobby of the funeral home shrouded in darkness for a long time before speaking, "Emmeton is dead, what plans do you have in the future?"
Gavin did not hide his anger and said hatefully: "I will investigate the cause of Emmeton's death and avenge him."
He is an assistant to the Senate, and to him, Emmeton Remy is a big tree, and he is a vine.
When the tree falls, he is finished. At least in his career, he will never be the first assistant to other senators. Even if he is recruited, he must start from the outside and slowly integrate into the core.
This is definitely the biggest setback in his life, who is already forty years old this year.
Scott's hand clutched the back of the row of chairs tightly, tried to control his anger, and said calmly: "I'm not a policeman or a lawyer. I don't need evidence. As long as I know that this matter is related to Evan Zhao, it's enough.
Emmeton is the most important core of the Remi family. I would rather die by myself than he gets hurt. But now, he is dead.
I have inherited half of his relationship in politics, and you have inherited half, and I can introduce all of my half to you. There is only one condition, that is, you will continue to serve our Remi family in the official position."
“What do I need to do?”
"Don't worry, at most half a month, you will know what you need to do. During this period, the most important thing is to use Emmeton's unexpected death to win our own interests."
Looking up at the dazzling starry sky, Scott felt that his heart was broken into stars.
An old figure appeared at the door of the refrigerator, and another slightly fat figure supported her.
The two of them looked around at the door and walked straight towards them.
Scott told Gavin: "You go back and rest first. Our family has no free time these days, and you still need to inform us."
Gavin received Scott's promise and originally wanted to show his loyalty. When he saw the two figures walking over, he was silent and said, "Scott, don't worry, I will always be a loyal ally of the Remi family."
Facing the two women walking over, he stood up slightly, nodded slightly, and then turned around and left.
Scott stood up and sat down with the old figure. "Mom, you should go and rest."
"It's not too late to rest when I die." The old woman sat down and patted Scott's back of the hand holding her arm. "Emiton is your father's favorite child. He inherited the best qualities of the Remi family. Although I like you more, I also know that Emiton is the hope of our family."
The slightly fat figure was a beautiful woman in her early thirties. She waited for the old lady to sit down, stood behind the chairs, and looked at Scott with a worried look.
Scott gave her a comforting look and looked straight into the old lady's eyes. "Mom, we all know that you are the best mother."
"But I am also the saddest mother now, my most promising son, and I will always leave me. No matter what method you use, I must avenge Emmeton."
"Yes, I will."
"What are you going to do?"
"Blood debt and blood repayment."
The old lady patted the back of his hand with relief, nodded and said, "You are the hope of the Remi family. This matter cannot involve you. On the family fund, I will withdraw 10 million US dollars tomorrow. You can tell me your plan. I am not confused yet, and it may not be worse than your operations. All the consequences will be borne by me, the immortal."
"Mother……"
The old lady sternly said, "This is also the only reason that supports me to survive."
His wife and assistant Carey nodded slightly from the perspectives that the old lady could not see. Scott also knew that this was the best choice, but he couldn't get through the emotional barrier in his heart.
This is his mother!
However, facing his mother's cold gaze, he nodded slightly.
…………
Washington became more and more peaceful in the early morning. If there were no people's voices in the villa area, it would be even more peaceful.
Fortunately, the house in the villa area that Zhao Shanhe and his friends rented was next to the Freemasonry Memorial Hall, which had little impact on other residents.
After leaving the police station at 3 a.m., it caught the media off guard. There were too few people left behind. They did not stop Zhao Shanhe and the others, so they returned to the villa smoothly.
Although others came out, they were restricted.
You cannot leave Washington within half a month.
If other clues are found within half a month and Zhao Shanhe can be accused of, he will be formally detained.
Of course, if he can't find it, he can leave here.
Zhao Shanhe is not in a hurry. Anyway, it will take some time for his patent application.
When he woke up in the early morning, Zhao Shanhe browsed most of the newspapers on the market, and there were only twenty-three news articles about him, which was half less than the nearly 100 articles yesterday.
Zhao Shanhe knew very well that this was the action taken by Congress and the White House. Until there was no evidence and could not convict Zhao Shanhe, they were unwilling to let Zhao Shanhe be active in the media.
Today is not the Internet era. As long as you control print media and television news broadcasts, ordinary people will not receive other information.
Zhou Guowei didn't sleep almost all night. When Zhao Shanhe was taken to the police station, he had to arrange everything, and even deal with the CIA and the Bureau of Investigation to deal with the eavesdropping incident.
Zhao Shanhe was released successfully because he agreed to sign a letter of understanding and did not pursue their illegal acts.
Otherwise, he would not have been released so smoothly.
The villa where I live was installed with more than a dozen eavesdropping machines and a camera, but they didn't know anything about it.
The spy incident happened around me, and it still had a great impact on ordinary people like them.
He has been busy with Zhao Shanhe's patent for nearly two months. He knows that these patents are very important and have a lot of money. He thought that other companies or companies would use various means to obtain patent authorization, but he did not expect that even the CIA would come out.
The CIA is not scary, the terrible thing is the Bureau of Investigation, and they are now involved.
Through the media, they also knew the whole story of the incident. Because these patents were involved in enterprises and international institutions from more than a dozen countries, the media introduced this matter clearly.
To be continued...
