Chapter 869 Pulling Someone Into Trouble

"Did I do anything to make you suspicious when we went to see Klaus?" Decius asked.

"No, strictly speaking it's not you. Do you still remember what I was doing before we entered?" Zhang Heng asked.

"You were looking around, looking at the people in the corridor...oh, you saw Andea's people." Daikius said.

"I don't know who those people are, or even sure what their purpose is, but my friends in the southeastern city told me that those guys have been following us, and the murderer was to kill Ami a few minutes before we arrived. Dio’s, in other words someone realized that we were about to find the final answer, so they hurriedly killed Amedeo to prevent him from talking nonsense, but this raised another problem.”

Zhang Heng said, "Even if they are following us, how do they know our movements so clearly?"

"Did you start to doubt me from that time?" Decius asked, "So you casually fabricated the statement that Amedeo was likely to leave evidence."

"Well, this is not considered a fabrication. The possibility of such a thing is not small." Zhang Heng said.

"Aren't you afraid that I will really find out the evidence he left and then hide it secretly?" Daichius couldn't help but ask.

"We are in the same room, my friend, do you really think you can hide every move you make from me?" Zhang Heng sighed.

Decius was silent after hearing this.

"The only question left that bothers me now is, how deeply involved are you in this matter?" Zhang Heng looked at Daichiusi, "I personally tend to think that there is something between you and Andrea. Agreement, but the understanding is limited, because as the situation develops, your look of surprise does not seem to be fake, unless you are an extremely good performing master."

"I think your childhood experience has contributed to your acting career, but it shouldn't be able to completely fool me, especially after seeing Amedeo's body, your fear and shock are real. Also. Therefore," Zhang Heng snapped his fingers, "I was a little surprised that you hid my necklace without hesitation."

Decius finally spoke after being silent for a while, "What you know about me is just hearsay, and you don't know my actual life. If there is an opportunity in front of me, I can leave with my beloved." My family is something I can’t miss no matter what.”

"The premise is that you really have the bargaining chips with Andrea, and why do you think you won't end up like Amedeo?" Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows, "Also, I'm curious about what Andrea promised to What are you doing, asking you to come to his side?"

"He told me that as long as I don't mind my own business, he will provide me with a stable and decent job after the matter is over, so that my wife and I can move out from here." Daikius said.

"This condition sounds good. You should do as he said, ignore the necklace, stay with me and continue to play the role of Watson." Zhang Heng said sincerely.

"But I want more, I also want to stand out and enter the Senate, so that I can really hold my head high in front of my father and that bastard brother. If, if that necklace is really Amedeo By leaving important physical evidence behind, I have the capital to negotiate with Andrea." Daikius clenched his fists.

"Courage is commendable." Zhang Heng praised, but then he changed the topic and added, "It's a pity that he has no brains."

"…………"

"Okay, I roughly understand your position in this matter. Now it's time for us to resolve the ore matter." Zhang Heng clapped his hands and said.

"Are you going to have a showdown with Andrea?" Decius asked.

"Amedeo is dead. If you were Andrea, would you admit that you did what happened in the mine?"

"Probably not." Daikius said matter-of-factly.

"That's right, even if I bring you to confront him, he won't admit it. And strictly speaking, he just told you not to mind your own business, and didn't instruct you to do anything. You are only free to take away the necklace. Play.”

"So how do you want to convince him to reopen the Binotta mine?"

"Knowing who is the mastermind behind the scenes, it is a simple matter to resume work in the mine. I don't need him to admit that he did it. I just need to grasp his painful feet. We can follow the way of others." "Treat him personally," Zhang Heng smiled, "But it's better that you don't know the specific process. You can continue to fulfill the agreement with Andea and don't meddle in other people's business."

"I... don't quite understand." Decius looked a little confused, "Aren't you going to hold me responsible for this matter?"

"Yes, after all, you have been my Watson for a while, and holding you accountable will do me no good." Zhang Heng said, "In addition, you can rest assured that even if Andrea knows that I am dealing with him, he will not I will be suspicious of you, but from now on you have to tell me any news in time, and I may have something to do for you, but don't worry, I will pay you when I ask you to do something. Do you want to enter the Senate? Maybe I can help you with this matter."

…………

After learning who the mastermind behind the scenes was, Zhang Heng immediately formulated a counterattack plan, but before that, he had to do one thing first, which was to muddy the water and drag someone into the water.

Early the next morning, Zhang Heng went to visit Senator Dvoublaye. Divobraye was still very cautious. As a well-known neutral faction in the Senate, he was concerned about some people secretly communicating with the new emperor during this period. There are also rumors about the confrontation between the young emperors.

Adhering to his usual attitude of not offending anyone, he welcomed Zhang Heng, the new consultant, but he was not very enthusiastic. He just chatted for a few words in the front hall, but then Zhang Heng asked to go to the study. Looking at his collection, Divebraye couldn't refuse in person, so the two of them stayed in the study for a while. After that, they probably felt bored, so Zhang Heng said goodbye on his own.

So the relieved Divebraye sent Zhang Heng to the front hall and watched the Oriental leave his Domus.

As a result, as soon as Zhang Heng left the house, he went straight to Cobb's residence on the outskirts of the city. He also stayed at Cobb's residence for half a day as usual. This made Andrea, who was secretly monitoring Zhang Heng's whereabouts, very nervous. Of course he knew that Di Woblaye was the largest buyer of Cobb's farm.

Although he asked Amedeo to negotiate with Cobb and was willing to help Cobb pay the mine's liquidated damages, and was also willing to pay Cobb another sum of money, the mine was only a small part of Cobb's business; The bulk of the income still comes from his farm. If Divebraye also participates and uses his status as the largest buyer to put pressure on Cobb, Cobb is likely to tell everything about the transaction with him.

However, Andrea is still holding on to a bit of luck. After all, the old fox Dvobraye has been neutral for so long. It makes no sense to suddenly join the battle now. Of course, Andrea Dvobraye is not afraid, but you must know that Andrea is also It's just that the person who was pushed to the front desk had a more important political alliance behind him. Otherwise, Andrea, a small municipal official, would not dare to challenge the imperial power alone.

Diva Braye should not be so blatantly hostile to them, otherwise he would have to hug Commodus' thigh from tonight on. This may be just the bluff of the Oriental.

However, another day later, Andrea received the bad news that the sewer pipes in the area under his jurisdiction were damaged by unknown persons last night.
