Chapter 411 Suoya changes the situation(1/2)

Although Soya is an independent country, its politics and economy are heavily dependent on other countries and regions.

Located near the equator, it is hot all year round without a dry season. The annual rainfall exceeds 3,000 mm. Many islands are covered with rainforests.

Therefore, Sawyer's main economic resource is forests.

Soya's economy is mainly based on logging and timber trading.

At this time, a businessman named Chen Dihua was already conducting geological exploration on various islands and might make new discoveries.

Chen Dihua is a national of Kangaroo Country. Sawyer is located in the eastern part of Kangaroo Country. It is politically and economically dependent on Kangaroo Country and attaches great importance to businessmen from there.

The newly elected head of government of Sawyer has dual citizenship of Sawyer and the Kangaroo Nation.

However, Sawyer belongs to a constitutional monarchy system, with the Queen of Britain as its head of state, so Sawyer also has a British governor, and various departments also have advisers sent by Britain.

July 7th is Sawyer's National Day. After holding National Day activities, Prime Minister Manasseh Sylvester went to Britain, Kangaroo Country and other places for goodwill visits as usual.

On the way back home, his plane encountered strong convective weather and made an emergency landing.

A few days later, Manasseh returned to the mansion with his personal entourage, but was assassinated in front of the door. Two gunmen shot Manasseh and others at close range with submachine guns.

During this exchange of fire, Manasseh was shot in the chest and abdomen. One of his bodyguards, his wife, and his daughter were killed on the spot. Even the police minister who was waiting in front of the door and wanted to ask Manasseh for funds was also killed.

In the past few years, domestic disputes have continued in Soya, and crossfires have occurred from time to time. The days of this incident seem to have passed.

Some people in Soya even considered the assassination of the head of government as a topic of discussion.

Manase returned to work two weeks later.

People discovered that Manasseh's behavior changed after he came back to life.

One of the changes was becoming distant from the governor and advisers.

The second is to become tougher in style.

It's no wonder that the wife and children were shot, but the murderer escaped. As the leader of a country, it is strange that he is not impatient.

At a regular meeting, Manasseh proposed to amend the constitution of Soya and establish an armed force.

Building armed forces will cost money. This proposal was of course opposed by the heads of relevant departments. The ministers of economy, commerce, and finance all said that Soya is a small country and there is no need to waste money on developing armed forces.

However, after some debate, the two parties compromised and agreed that Manasseh would entrust a security company to be responsible for the safety of the official residence and individuals.

Some people began to lobby Manasseh, recommending security companies that they had relationships with, such as Blackwater, Titan, and Jefferies.

But Manasseh had other plans and chose a security company called "Blue Shield".

Blue Shield Security has been established for just over a year and is registered in Western Australia.

The cost of the security company was reduced to 180,000 dollars, and everyone reluctantly agreed that Blue Shield Security would undertake the security work for Manasseh's official residence and personal security.

As the new police minister, Manase arranged for his assistant and soon-to-be son-in-law Rick Honipwela to serve as the new police minister.

Rick Honeypwella was the boyfriend of Manasseh's daughter. He was not at the scene on the day of the shooting and escaped death.

He is a local, less than 30 years old this year, graduated from Curtin University in Western Australia with a law major, and his loyalty is no problem.

After Rick took office, he began to hunt down the killers and masterminds behind the assassination.

The shooting took place in broad daylight, with people coming and going in front of the official residence. The killer got out of a business class car and set fire to it, and drove away a few minutes later.

Many people saw the appearance of the killer, and a tourist from a certain country even took a picture of the two gunmen!

As a result, the subsequent news became even more explosive.

On the day the gunman was wanted, someone reported to the police station:

According to photos of the wanted man posted on television, the gunman had attended a small gathering organized by the finance minister a few days before the assassination.

This small gathering was also photographed.

Rick immediately led people to the home of Finance Minister Hari Kumar and took Harihi roughly to the police station for interrogation.

Although the country is small, how can it be tolerated in a civilized world if the Minister of Finance instigates the assassination of the head of government!

However, Harry has British nationality and he was arrested so brutally. Is there any evidence?

The British Governor in Sawyer, Akilon Na, rushed to the police station after hearing the news. Rick provided Akilon with the photos taken of Harry and others gathering with the gunmen and said: "Currently there is evidence that Harry has a relationship with these gunmen.

Coming and going.”

Akilon then carefully looked at the photo of the gunman.

Photos of the gunman were posted to Sawyer TV, but who among Akilon and others watched Sawyer's own TV show?

A small country of 300,000 people, a land as big as a cow's butt. These people are the news themselves, why do they still watch Sawyer's TV?

Akilong was surprised when he saw the photo. He also knew the two gunmen. One was named Liang Guokai and the other was named Li Dengyu. Both of them were timber merchants from Liuqiu.

Their fathers ran a chain company called Guangyi Wood Industry and Guangyi Furniture. Relying on the supply of Suoya wood, they were developing well in Liuqiu.

Liang and Li have taken over Guangyi Wood Industry and Furniture Company since this year. This time they came to Sawyer to negotiate a wood supply agreement with Harry.

In fact, it's just a matter of getting to know each other and socializing.

The idea of ​​three people taking photos was proposed by Liang and Li. It was considered as an announcement that they had inherited their father's legacy. Taking a photo was considered as a commemoration, pursuing a sense of ceremony.

Seeing the photo, Akilon's heart beat wildly because he also took a photo with the two of them.

The person in charge of taking pictures was a reporter sent by Sawyer's news department. There were only a few people in the news department, but this reporter was a newcomer and he didn't know him.

It was probably this reporter who broke the news to Rick.

Sure enough, Rick threw over a photo of Akilon and Liang Li and said: "Mr. Governor, you have immunity in Sawyer. I can't detain you, but I hope you can provide some information about these two killers."

information."

Aquilon was about to explain that these two men were just timber merchants, but as a politician, he realized his position and immediately changed his words:

"The party was organized by Harry, and the lumber park is Harry's property. They must have received Harry's invitation when they came to Sawyer. This is the first time I have met these two people, and I was not familiar with them before."

Aquilon told the truth.

Rick sneered and said: "Mr. Governor, do you have any suggestions about this incident?"

Akilon waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, I hope the murderer can be caught soon."

Harry was imprisoned, but the case made no further progress.

However, Harry's timber garden was sealed, and the police in Liuqiu also received a letter of assistance from Sawyer.

After learning the news, Liang and Li shouted that they were wronged. They had already returned to Liuqiu before the shooting incident.

Since their parents had certain status in Liuqiu, they only explained their whereabouts to relevant parties in Liuqiu, and no compulsory measures were taken.

The information on their flights and passports proved that they had indeed returned before the shooting.

People speculated that the two gunmen had put on makeup and changed their appearance.

But looking at the gunman's appearance, skin color, facial features, and hairstyle in the photo, they are exactly the same, and even the clothes are the same as he wore at the party.

Liu Qiu sent the investigation status back to Soya Police Station.

Such a reply certainly aroused Rick's anger:

Although Soya is small, it is still a sovereign country. Since you are protecting your businessmen, don't blame us for resorting to violent measures.

Next, people saw that Rick, like a mad dog, began to investigate the business of the Liuqiu merchants in Sawyer. Anyone with problems was held accountable, and a large number of employees were even detained.

A large number of merchants who stayed in Qiu had to leave Suoya.

Liu Qiu quickly sent someone over to question him, but Rick's attitude was very tough: "Hand over the murderer first."

A representative of Liuqiu explained: "We have already investigated. They returned to Liuqiu before the incident. They have flight information and airport customs clearance records. Many people can prove it."

Rick said: "That is your conclusion. In our country, many people saw their faces, and there were people just a few meters away from them."

"Then maybe he's wearing makeup and a mask?"

Rick said: "Wearing a mask? Wearing makeup? Do you think this is a movie?"

Representative Liuqiu said awkwardly: "But why did they want to assassinate Mr. Manasse? There was no motive?"

Rick said: "But Harry has! He may have been behind the conflict two years ago, and now he is coveting the position of prime minister."

Representative Liu Qiu can only shut up. If he continues talking, he will be interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.

In short, this assassination incident became the trigger for Sawyer to change again.

And Rick had Blue Shield Security as his thugs, and he quickly defeated more than 300 police officers.

The obedient ones were kept, while the disobedient ones were expelled, and some were even arrested.

Assassinating the head of a country is a serious matter. No one will stand up to block the gun at this time.

Soon after, Harry's men launched an attack with the purpose of robbing the prison. However, with the rapid response of the Blue Shield security company, the conflict was quickly quelled, and Harry's remaining men began to be wanted.

Within the government, more than 2,000 public officials began to pass through the screening process and verify each one.

The political situation in Soya is once again in turmoil, and all aspects of the country are observing it.

However, these battles occur at the top.

As the locals say: dog bites dog.
