Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The mayor of Calcutta is named Abagun. He was once an official under Prawandin. Li Zhen led the army to Calcutta. After Guo Songtao's assessment, Abagong not only was not demoted, but was also appointed as the mayor of Calcutta by Guo Songtao.  As mayor, Abagong's promotion made him work harder and he was full of energy all day long.

    On this day, Abagong finished his work for the day in the afternoon and went to the wine shop after get off work.

    He is an upright official, and most of his salary is managed by his wife at home. He only has a little left to drink. This man always has some hobbies. Abagong's only hobby is drinking a little wine.

    He is not a drunkard, as long as he has wine, and most of the places where Abagong drinks are roadside stalls, not high-end places. The little money he has is just enough for him to drink at roadside wine shops.

    "A pot of wine and a plate of peanuts."

    Abagong sat down on the table carelessly and ordered a pot of wine and a plate of peanuts.

    He is a regular customer and the boss is quick to prepare.

    Abagong poured a small cup for himself, held it up with a sip, and then let out a long sigh, feeling comfortable all over. He sat on the side of the road drinking, leisurely, watching the people coming and going on the road.  , with a faint smile on his lips. These days, the tasks on his shoulders are very heavy, because there are many custody matters that need to be dealt with and cannot be delayed. In the old days of Prawangdin, many things did not need to be done and were left aside.  People are in charge, but the current government does not support idle people.

    Of course, Abagong also enjoys it, because the officialdom is not as dark as before.

    This is also in line with Abagong's attitude towards life.

    "Let's go."

    After Abagong drank the last glass of wine, he was still unsatisfied, but he still put down the money for the drink and staggered out. He didn't drink much wine, but everyone would get drunk if he was not drunk. This guy was dizzy and staggered.  , walked out steadily.

    "Snapped,."

    There was a gunshot, and Abagong, who had taken a few steps away, responded.

    The owner of the wine shop followed the sound and suddenly saw Abagong lying on the ground. Especially when he saw gurgling blood flowing on the ground, he screamed in fright. The owner of the wine shop did not dare to delay and immediately reported the case. It did not take long.  , the army came and took Abagong and the people at the scene back for investigation. As the mayor, Abagong was suddenly shot and killed. It was not a small matter.

    ¡­¡­

    The military camp outside the city, Li Zhen¡¯s tent.

    Guo Songtao reported: "President, after careful interrogation about the murder of Calcutta Mayor Abagon, I can confirm that this was a premeditated assassination. Abagong was an honest official and was deeply loved by the people.  He loved him, and the person who was most at odds with him was the killed Gulzhari. Gulzhari was already dead, so why would anyone want to kill Abagon? No one was involved with Abagong anymore, so I inferred  It was a murder, and it was an organized and premeditated murder."

    "Are there any suspicious targets?"

    Li Zhen asked.

    Guo Songtao looked bitter and shook his head: "Not yet. Abagong was drinking at a roadside liquor store and was shot dead when he walked out. There is no clue."

    Li Zhen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where's the bullet? Have you taken it out?"

    "No." Guo Songtao shook his head.

    Guo Songtao's eyes lit up and he said: "The bullet is the breakthrough point. I will ask someone to take out the bullet and check what kind of gun it is from." Guo Songtao looked excited and left in a hurry. Li Zhen frowned. He felt that this matter would not be so simple.  , Abagong has not offended anyone, so it is impossible for him to suffer a vendetta.

    After a while, the guard lifted the tent curtain and walked in, saying in a low voice: "President, Governor Zhang is here to visit."

    "Please." Li Zhen said.

    Soon, Zhang Zhidong walked in.

    Zhang Zhidong looked solemn and said: "President, I just received a telegram from surrounding cities. Mayors and officials of many cities were shot dead. At present, the deaths of these people have caused turmoil in many places.  , people are panicked.¡±

    brush.

    Li Zhen¡¯s face turned dark instantly.

    Guo Songtao reported that the mayor of Calcutta was shot dead, and now similar situations have occurred in many places around Calcutta. This is enough to prove that it is not a vendetta or a paid murder. Assassinations can be carried out on a large scale.  It's not just a personal problem, it's an organized and premeditated murder.

    Even being able to kill the mayors and officials of major cities at the same time is not something ordinary forces can do. Even though there are many forces in India, they are basically limited to the local area and cannot cross borders. Those who are truly powerful are also limited to the extreme.  A few, and these very few are already in Li Zhen's control, and there is no possibility of mistakes.

    Li Zhen¡¯s mind changed.He said: "Invite Prawandin and I will give him a try."

    "You doubt"

    ¡°It¡¯s unlikely, but it can¡¯t be ruled out.¡±

    "clear."

    Zhang Zhidong immediately went to invite people, and Prawangdin soon came to Li Zhen's tent with a mournful face.

    Prawandin said respectfully: "President, please look for me."

    Li Zhen did not let Prawandin sit down, and said calmly: "Prawandin, the mayor of Calcutta, Abagun, was killed. Do you know about this?"

    "Ah~"

    Prawandin quickly shook his head and said, "President, it has nothing to do with me."

    Li Zhen frowned and asked, "I asked you if you know."

    Prawandin nodded and replied: "I don't know. I thought you thought it was me. President, please believe me. I never leave the house these days. I am carried around in the military camp every day, and no one comes."  Those who visit me really have nothing to do with me.¡±

    Li Zhen stared at Prawangdin carefully and observed the changes in Prawangdin's expression.

    This person really doesn¡¯t seem to be able to make such a big noise.

    "President, something has been discovered."

    Guo Songtao rushed in furiously. After seeing Zhang Zhidong and Prawangdin, he nodded to Zhang Zhidong and said, "The bullet in Abagong's head has been taken out. After identification, it is a bullet from a British standard gun.  .¡±

    "Huh,."

    Prawandin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had almost suffered a disaster.

    These British people are so hateful.

    Li Zhen looked at Zhang Zhidong and ordered: "Immediately send a telegram to inquire about the assassinations in surrounding cities, and inquire about all the bullets. If they are all bullets from British standard guns, then"

    Speaking of this, Li Zhen's eyes turned cold.

    Guo Songtao raised his eyebrows and asked, "President, assassinations have also occurred in other places."

    Li Zhen said: "They appeared in batches. I suspect it was done by the British."

    Zhang Zhidong immediately went to arrange the verification, while Guo Songtao had to appease Abagun's family and re-appoint the new mayor of Calcutta. He left after a while. Prawandin withdrew without any danger, feeling the British in his heart.  After greeting all his ancestors, he was very old and had some physical injuries. He just wanted to spend his old age in peace, but he didn't expect that this would happen.

    In half a day, Zhang Zhidong checked all the information.

    The final verification results were consistent, and they were all British standard gun bullets. In this way, Li Zhen's speculation became reasonable. It was obviously the British who were responsible. With a clear answer, Li Zhen's heart was already filled with anger.

    Anyone can do it if they don¡¯t play by the rules.

    If the British want to stab him in the dark, he won't be polite.
