Chapter 457 The reason for the betrayal (4k)
"How can you be so embarrassed? Why do you have the face to say such words? Ah! Bo! Te!"
Outside the door, there was a roar that was so high that it was so high that it shook the eardrums of Raham and Abbott.
The frequency of this sound is so high that the table in the interrogation room can't help but vibrate slightly, as if resonating with it.
However, both Raham or Abbott looked as calm as ever, without surprise or movement.
It was as if there was just a breeze blowing on my face, leaving no trace.
"Aren't you going to answer?"
Raham asked with a deep tone.
“What answer?”
"Did I give the answer?"
Abbott replied casually, spreading his hands, as if he didn't care. "It doesn't matter anymore."
Raham pondered for a moment, then continued, but he did not rush to continue the conversation, but continued the previous topic.
"I think your becoming the undercover agent of Gallup Tilros should have something to do with the death of Deers Augustus?"
Abbott was not surprised by Raham's reaction and decision.
Because, if he was the one who led the conversation, he would do so.
Continuing final negotiations without sufficient information can easily lead to unfair misjudgment due to the lack of information and subjective influence.
This justice does not mean that the interrogation of Raham, who is the deputy minister of the Ministry of Justice, is illegal, but whether the decision on Abbott's disposal is reasonable.
Aschison was the invader, so he was naturally trapped in the situation and could not get the whole picture. However, as a bystander, Raham could not do so by his temperament.
Therefore, he decided to skip this topic for the time being, wait until all the doubts are solved and the problems are clear before making the final decision.
At that time, even if there is any deviation, it will definitely be within the range of the error allowed.
Instead of just like now, it seems like you have to make a final conclusion before you finish your words.
"Um?"
Hearing Raham's question, Abbott's indifferent and strange smile, which seemed to be there, disappeared once, and replaced by a cold look.
He stared at Raham without saying a word.
The cold eyes were like the biting cold wind on the Arctic Ice Field, making people's hair stand up, and they felt like they were getting goose bumps.
However, Raham seemed extremely adaptable to such a look.
This is also a matter of course. As the deputy minister of the Ministry of Justice and the real power in charge of the actions, how could it be that there is no experience in dealing with vicious criminals?
Although Abbott's eyes looked fierce, they were much more immature than the ups and downs that Raham had experienced.
Therefore, he had no stress response as he deserved and seemed extremely calm.
It was as if what he received was not the knife that fell on his body, but the gentle breeze.
"How did you know?"
It took a long time before Abbott replied in a hoarse and dry voice that seemed to rub two pieces of steel that had reached its peak.
The sound was weak and seemed to be extremely tired.
"For some questions, it is very difficult to solve them directly, but after you know the answer, it is much easier to push them back."
Raham first said something irrelevant with a little meaning, and then explained Abbott.
"We did not put you on the list of doubts until we learned the details of that year."
"Even after we got the things from the Tilros and the Chris family, we did not doubt you during the analysis."
"The reason I hide it from you is just because of routine rules and confidentiality regulations."
"After all, you are also several personal subordinates that Dilles Augustus, the previous generation of Gunfire Earl, trusted."
"And after Deers passed away, when Austin fled to the North and was beside Dalton, you could be considered a great work and no obvious flaws were left."
"So from beginning to end, the enemy we expected was not you."
"If you hadn't appeared tonight, we might have had no idea what was shocking."
Speaking of this, Raham's forward-looking posture, which was originally slightly oppressive, also slowed down slightly and became much looser.
"But now that you have known your complex identity and your relationship with Deers' death, we can make a very simple logical inference."
"First of all, you can be regarded as a powerful and genuine person in the Augustus family, both in the past and now."
"So, by common sense, you shouldn't betray Gallup's undercover agent, right?"
Abbott lowered his head and replied as if he was raising an argument, "What if the other party gave me some price that I could not refuse?"
Regarding these words, Raham just shook his head calmly, "This is indeed a fact that it may exist, but the possibility is too low and you can ignore it."
"When conducting the initial screening and screening, we confirmed from the Augustus family elders of the same period, such as Atcheson, that you did not receive any unfair treatment in the Augustus family. It can even be said that both status and treatment have reached the extreme."
"So, without being wronged, having sufficient benefits, and being discovered and trained by the Augustus family, we feel that the possibility of your rebellion is extremely low."
"It can even be said that this possibility is extremely low just to maintain scientific fairness, otherwise it would be absolutely not impossible."
Under the bright light, Raham's face was clear, but he was still as ordinary as a passerby. However, the heavy but unreleased momentum was enough to make people feel it clearly.
"The Tilros family can give you, and the Augustus family can give you too."
"The Augustus family can't give you what you want, and the Tilros family will not spend such a huge price."
"Because, if even the Gun Flame Earl family, which had accumulated a profound foundation, could not be taken out, it might only be precious in the conventional sense."
"And this preciousness must be a precious treasure that can be regarded as a family background."
"You are indeed important, but I don't think it will be important to that level."
Speaking of this, Raham suddenly paused, and then his tone increased by three points. "If the heart is not wronged and the treatment is given enough, this will happen."
"I can only think that there is a strong external force involved."
"This kind of external force may not be a bribery or bribery, nor may it be a temptation or seduction."
"But it must have made your originally rock-solid type flaw."
Raham looked at Abbott's drooping head, and looked at the shadows cast on the table. His tone, which seemed to have solved a problem, naturally fell back and began to decline, but it was still powerful and sonorous.
"And among these many possibilities, only the death of Deers Augustus is the most likely."
His speaking speed is neither fast nor slow, and his tone is neither light nor heavy, but he put an end to the previous words and concluded.
After a pause, Raham continued, "And, have you already given clues to your previous words?"
"You said that you were the indirect culprit that caused the death of Deers Augustus."
"But we didn't find this in our previous information collection or in the process of searching for clues."
"Even Acheson and others who have known you for decades and who were able to be dependent on life and death during that period, they did not know."
"I think this should be a secret."
"Did Gallup find it?"
Speaking of this, Raham seemed a little curious and naturally brought some exploration into his tone.
However, if Abbott could raise his head, he would definitely find that Raham's expression was still calm and calm, like a cold deep pool, without any twists and turns.
"No, no."
Abbott shook his head and gave a negative answer.
"You're right, but you guessed this in the end."
The drooping head slowly raised, and after the flash-sharp sharpness, the old face that had lost its energy and spirit appeared in front of Raham.
He hooked the muscles on his face, as if he wanted to smile, but in the end he failed to do so.
"Gallop did not discover this fact, but took advantage of my mistakes."
"He is the executioner who killed the old master, and I am an accomplice."
Speaking of this, the muscles on Abbott's face twisted unconsciously, becoming extremely strange, as if they were crying but not crying, as if they were sad and resentful.
"Then I don't understand even more, why did you get to this point?"
Raham's face naturally showed a look of doubt.
This is not only a performance, but also a bit real, because he really can't understand the cause and effect relationship.
However, this time, Abbott did not ask questions and answers as before, but fell silent.
"I probably know what's the reason."
As soon as a familiar voice suddenly rang in Raham's ear, he took away his attention.
Raham glanced at Abbott, then activated the magic circle that had been arranged in the interrogation room, stood up, and walked outside the door.
Bang!
The door was closed, and the silver-gray steel door was filled with magical brilliance, as if it was wrapped in the entire interrogation room.
Outside the door, a tall silver-haired figure stood there quietly, motionless, like a sculpture.
It was Acheson who had been listening outside.
Previously, after Raham and Abbott had a deeper conversation, the originally irritable slap and roar outside the door had disappeared. Raham originally thought that the other party could not help but walk away, but when he heard the previous voice transmission, he found that the other party was still standing at the door and did not go far away.
However, it seems that he has calmed down a lot.
"Tell me, what do you think."
Raham looked at Acheson, whose blood was still looming in his pupils and had not completely dissipated, and did not exchange too much greetings and asked directly.
He knew that Atcheson now did not need comfort.
When he calmed down and stopped roaring on the door, he had returned to his normal state, that calmness and tenacity that could control an Earl family.
"Abbott was the smallest, smartest, and most favored of those people in our group."
"Dilles regarded Abbott as his younger brother, and he cared for him very much."
"If I were to choose someone the most said it was impossible to betray Deers, I think at least one third of our group would vote for Abbott."
"And this is one of the reasons why we chose Abbott to lurk with Dalton."
Raham did not rush to interrupt Acheson's reminiscence-like narrative, but patiently sought useful information in these words.
He knew that even if the other party was amazed by Abbott's affairs, he would not be able to deviate from the topic at this time and waste time on things that were meaningless.
So, he was very patient.
"I was also confused, but before, when I heard Abbott's final statement, I understood a little, why did he get to this point."
"At the beginning, Deers' last trip plan was formulated by Abbott, and Deers would be ambushed because of a mistake in the plan."
"After the incident, we were conducting a strict internal inventory."
"I thought it was other aspects except for mistakes, but now it seems that it is Abbott's problem."
Acheson's eyelids drooped, as if he was deliberately avoiding the lights in the aisle.
The coherent words suddenly stopped, and Acheson shook his nose slightly, as if it was just a natural pause.
"In Abbott's view, he was the culprit of Deers' death, the murderer who killed the head of the family who treated him as close as his elder brother."
"This seems to be just a simple description, but on Abbott, it is enough to crush everything in his heart."
"I don't know what Abbott experienced, what he had undertaken, and what he had endured after this."
"But I think this guilt, this kind of guilt that cannot be said and endured alone, must be like the increasingly fierce fire, burning his heart, making him suffer and unable to be relieved."
"In this case, it is not impossible for Abbott to be exploited by Gallup when there is a flaw in the mind."
"After all, guilt and shame seem inconspicuous, but they are like weeds, growing freely in the heart, making the heart gradually desolate."
"And the poisonous snakes that appear in this heart field will naturally invade and devour his soul."
Raham nodded very understandingly. He could understand this situation.
The essence of grace becomes enemies is that a person's heart bears too much pressure, which defeats his original defense line and causes abnormal distortions in his heart.
Great kindness is OK, great guilt is OK.
