Wein's series of rhetorical questions made Groka look unhappy.
As the Chief of the Legal and Political Section of the Caspars Solemnity Bureau, Groka is a leader after all. Even if Director Baroque is alive, he still has to show some courtesy to her. What's more, now that Baroque is dead, Groka is competing for the position of Director.
She is a strong candidate. These days, even other colleagues who are eyeing the position of director have a much better attitude toward her. After all, no one knows who the winner is before the appointment letter is issued.
I'm afraid no leader would like Wei's attitude, especially the series of rhetorical questions that almost put "You have a problem" on Groka's forehead.
Groka glared at Wein and said coldly: "No comment."
Wein shrugged: "Okay, haha, no comment... indeed, this is your business after all."
"It's good to know."
"But..." Wei Yin changed the topic, touched his chin and said with a smile, "The Suzheng Bureau has been in chaos these past few days. I'm afraid several spies from the nearby Grand Duke are also paying attention to this."
Groka's expression stiffened.
Liang twitched the corner of his mouth, good guy, this sentence obviously contains a threat...
Although this whole incident involves multiple organizations, from the Suppression Bureau, "Giant Industries" to the Blood Howl Gang, they all have one thing in common, that is, their interests are related to the Central Region.
In other words, it is tied to the current regent government, and no one wants something to happen to "Giant Industries", causing the Central Region and its affiliated areas to fall into turmoil.
However, several grand dukes who covet the throne do not care about the economy and people's livelihood of the Central Region. For them, "Giant Industry" not only has little impact on their own territories, but even if it collapses, it will be nothing. If they can overthrow "Giant Industry" in one fell swoop,
, just enough to allow companies under the Grand Dukes such as the "Commercial Federation" to enter the Central Region, seize the market space left after the collapse of "Giant Industry", and then control the economic lifeline of the Central Region.
Therefore, people like Duke Hohenlohe will be happy to watch and even actively promote the exposure of information, thus combating the "Tiger Industry". If the information falls into their hands, not only will it not be concealed and suppressed, but they will add fuel and jealousy and publicize it with great fanfare.
And cooperate with other means to maximize panic.
Leon glanced at Wein. He had no idea what this guy was thinking. At present, it seemed that Wein was trying his best to avoid the leakage of information, but now he brought out the Grand Duke to threaten Groka. If Geluoka
Lorca insisted on rejecting Wein...Leon always felt that this guy would really package the information and sell it to those Duke spies.
Groka frowned. Although she had not met Wein several times before, when such a "dangerous person" appeared in Caspars, Suzheng Bureau naturally reacted and responded to Wein's arrival overnight.
After several days of meetings, the final conclusion was "leave it alone and try to meet his demands as much as possible."
This kind of compromise is impossible. If ordinary people dared to threaten the Suppression Bureau, they would have been arrested long ago, but Vin Noyes... even the hunting operation launched by the General Administration against him failed. Casper
What can the local government agencies in this second-tier city do?
After a long silence, until the cigarette on his fingertips burned out, Groka sighed: "If you have any questions, just ask."
She finally gave in.
"Since you said that, I will boldly ask the question." Wein smiled and said, "Did you kill Director Baroque?"
The silence that was finally broken was bridged again with just one sentence.
Leon's eyes widened, what's the problem? Director Baroque... was killed by the Ms. Groka in front of him?
Wait, the ability to control dreams that she just showed clearly belongs to the category of mental illusions - this is consistent with the fact that Director Baroque died of some kind of illusion-like ability.
Facing Wein's question, Groka did not show any panic, as if what she heard was not the accusation of "you killed someone", but the accusation of "the wind is very noisy today" that can be
Ignore the nonsense.
This silence made Leon a little uneasy. He looked around and saw that there were only three of them in the reception room, and the exit door was closed. If there was a fight, it would be Wein who would fight Groka with a bottle of oil.
In the absence of foreign aid in Groka, considering the strength shown by Wein, they should have a pretty good chance of winning...
"You're right." Groka spoke out, admitting the accusations Wein made against her, "Director Baroque did die at my hands."
Is this an admission? Leon has no idea what these people are thinking, and Wein hasn’t produced any strong evidence yet.
Regarding Groka's calmness, Wein didn't say anything. He just leaned back and sank into the soft sofa: "Is this the intention of the superiors, or is it because of your personal hatred?"
"Barok is a greedy idiot. The superiors wanted to spare his life, but I think it's not necessary." After admitting to killing Director Barok, Groka showed an unusual smile, changing his previous cold-faced image.
"Baroque is dead, and there is no intention from above to investigate."
Vin spread his hands: "But you didn't kill him because he was a 'greedy fool', right? Let me guess... it was because of Marshall?"
