Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 4 Chapter 63: Detective Alexander
Levi was a Jew and a businessman, but he was obviously not from Venice, nor did he run from a manuscript of a British playwright who is not yet born today.
So in the end he was taken out of that house by Alexander, and left the Jewish gathering area in the eyes of the people who were suspiciously watching.
Returning empty-handed, this made Mahimo a little irritated. The monk who was ready to perform in front of the lord lord, in addition to reading a notice, could never do anything else, watching Alexander look low. After coming out of the house, Mahimo immediately greeted him and followed carefully, knowing that Alexander should not be in a good mood.
What Alexander did not expect was that Uliu brought back bad news. Looking at Isaac who had been tortured by the Moors, Alexander felt that today should not be the lucky day for their masters and servants.
It's just that Alexander didn't expect it to be that the words Isaac said made him unbelievable.
"You're right, it's a triple crown?" Alexander looked at the Jew who was sitting across from him, he believed that this person should have been frightened, so he should not be nonsense, and if he wanted to make up lies It's more absurd than to make a triple crown to make it easier to believe.
"I'm right, I beg you to spare me," Isaac shuddered, and when he saw the Moors walking around, he was terrified and shrank away. "I already know I tell you all, that Levi, the person I told him, he knew it all. "
Isaac yelled at the Moors, because he did not know what fate would be waiting for him, which made him more afraid.
"The Limo you said is here," Alexander said slowly as he watched Isaac, his gaze looking at the cell of another house across a few fences, where Limo was being held tightly. .
This is a prison on a solitary hill in the north of the city of Rome. Unlike the famous Roman Seven Hills, the terrain here is steep and difficult to implement. A huge prison is built on the side of the cliff on the side of the hill, except for a difficult mountain road at the main entrance. The entire prison stood alone on the cliff, and it was almost impossible to escape from here.
The location of the prison is very high, so standing on the tower next to the wall, you can clearly see the people coming from the direction of the city gate. This was originally a sentinel used by the Romans to defend the north. It was only later changed into a prison.
Alexander sent both prisoners to the prison, and Mahimo disagreed with the decision.
Although it is not known who these Jews were colluding with, but the monks believed that since this involved the Vatican ’s greats, those people would find a way to deal with this matter once they heard the wind.
Whether it's saving the Jews or killing them, it's easier in prison than in their own Marino Palace.
But Alexander still insisted on sending the two Jews to prison, and at the same time he sent a letter to Caesar.
For Alexander, it was his responsibility to find out the murderer. This may indeed be what he owed to Giovanni, but he did not owe the Borgia family anything.
So, when I found a clue that might be related to the murderer, I told the Borgia family that it had fulfilled his obligations to Giovanni. As for who actually wanted Giovanni to die, he had no interest, and he did not want to blend in with this. In trouble.
However, it seems that destiny intends to oppose him. When I heard about the Triple Crown from Isaac, Alexander knew that he was doomed to avoid this trouble.
Caesar came quickly. When he heard of the clues about the murderer, he immediately threw down a group of officers he had just summoned. These men were the generals of the Roman City Defense Army. Caesar was planning to use these people and the Vatican Guard he had established before. Foundation to build his own army.
The news about the triple crown also shocked him deeply. He began to disbelieve and then decided to see the Jew immediately.
Alexander just watched silently next to him. He always felt that something was wrong in this matter. Although the triple crown suddenly appeared and Giovanni died unexpectedly, it became a lot more reasonable, but he did not understand that Lemur was What's the matter, why didn't the Jew run away, or if the Jew guessed that their secret would be discovered, why did he let that Isaac run this way?
Alexander wanted to find out exactly what happened, but he just watched Caesar excited to interrogate the Jews.
"Sir, it seems that we have nothing to do here." Mahimo said a little unwillingly, and then he lowered his voice and said in an unstoppable tone of excitement. "That's a triple crown, a symbol of the highest honor in the entire Christ world."
Alexander glanced at the monk. He could understand why Mahimo was so excited. In the eyes of people in this era, the crown represents supreme honor and power. It is just in his view that the triple crown is a piece Apart from the precious treasures, it doesn't really make much sense.
Especially in a few decades, with the founding of the upcoming Protestantism and the pioneering initiative of the British Anglican Church, how much significance will the triple crown have for the world?
It's just that no one knows it yet, nor can it be imagined that the Catholic world, which has been standing in Europe for more than a thousand years, will soon fall apart.
Alexander thought about these things that no one would ever think of, even dreaming, but when he just walked from the low cell to the door, an angry roar suddenly sounded from the back channel.
Uliu immediately turned and ran in, while Alexander stopped and frowned for a moment, then shook his head slightly and continued on.
"What happened?" Mahimo whispered inexplicably, and then he saw Uliu, who was originally black on the face, and came out from the inside with a gloomy face.
"That Limo, died." The Moors looked at Alexander. "The Bishop is very angry now, and no one dares to approach him."
Alexander nodded, feeling strange from the beginning, and finally got the answer now.
That Limo was obviously prepared for self-sacrifice. He even chose to commit suicide despite violating the biggest taboo. Alexander could imagine that he should have taken some chronic poison in advance, and then stayed waiting for a search .
The only purpose for him to do this was to delay the investigation of the triple crown and to break all clues here.
Are these Jews so brave?
Alexander was surprised that, in his impression, the Jews should be more expressed in the pursuit of wealth, and the perseverance and perseverance when they were adversity.
It is this amazing perseverance and perseverance that allowed them to accumulate great wealth from generation to generation while successfully avoiding many persecutions against them in history and surviving.
Caesar's angry face appeared at the door of the cell. A huge storm brewed in his originally flexible and clear eyes. When he saw standing on the top of the cell's uphill and looking down at his Alexander, his anger was already To the edge of the outbreak.
"That man is dead, right in front of my eyes, and no one has testified."
Caesar stared closely at Alexander, and he even suspected that it was all Alexander's conspiracy at this time.
A man who might explain the cause of Giovanni's death, died somehow after he appeared. What is more suspicious is that it was at this time that Alexander was not around.
I believe that anyone who heard of this kind of thing, the only thing that can be thought of is that all this is Caesar's hands and feet. In order to cover up his crimes, he killed an insider.
Alexander stood on the **** and looked down at Caesar standing in the door of the cell. Although he guessed the purpose of the Jewish suicide, he was not sure whether this matter was related to Caesar.
Maybe Caesar really just happened to be in this affair, or did he really have a share in this matter?
Alexander thought about it, but he knew that with the death of Levi, the thing that he thought he could get rid of was obviously unable to escape.
"I'm going to see my father, what are you going to do?" Caesar stared at Alexander. If Alexander refused, then Caesar could be sure that all this was that Alexander was framing him.
Looking at Caesar's angry eyes, Alexander nodded.
"I will go with you to see the Pope," Alexander said, looking at the low arch leading to the cell. At this time, Caesar's two men had dragged Isaac out of it, and looked pale and almost collapsed. Jewish, Alexander shook his head a little helplessly. "You are unlucky. Now it is only the pope who can determine your destiny."
Hearing this, Isaac doubled his eyes, and his whole body was paralyzed.
Alexander VI sat on the steps of a small prayer hall and looked at the Jew who was kneeling in front of him.
Because it was noon, the fiery sun above his head could not open his eyes. The Jews were kneeling there with sweating and trembling, and beside him, Caesar ’s sword was on his neck, and that The familiar look of the sword made Alexander look twice.
Triangular ridges, four fingers wide, like a tapered armor piercing sword, this is Caesar's favorite weapon that he wears for a long time, and Giovanni also happened to be killed by such a weapon.
"Is this person what he said is true?"
The Pope looked at Alexander. He didn't seem to notice that Caesar glared at Alexander, but waited for Alexander to answer seriously.
"Your Majesty, at least my servant inquired from this Jew that this was the case. Someone received a large sum of money from the Jews for mortgage with a triple crown."
Alexander doesn't want to say who this person is. In fact, although the Vatican's big men always seem to be short of money, they are willing to risk their mortgage with a triple crown. It is not difficult to guess what such money is for.
"who is it?"
The Pope stared closely at the Jew, and when he saw him blank, he looked at Alexander again. "Can you find this man?"
"Your Majesty, you called me to Rome just to find out the murderer of Giovanni."
Alexander said lightly.
"Then I will order you to do this again now," the pope's voice increased slightly. He looked at Caesar, who was still angry next to him, and slowly beckoned to his son and Alexander. "Come, I want you all to come."
Looking at the two young men who walked in front of him, Alexander VI stood a little hard, leaning on his knees and stood up, his hand gently on the shoulders of the two, then stared at them and whispered, "Listen, I do n’t want to see you quarreling, Giovanni ’s death is already torturing each of us, and now we can no longer let blind misunderstandings and hostility ruin the newly established good relationship. "
Caesar wanted to say something, but at last he didn't say anything. He took Alexander VI's hand and kissed it gently. Then he turned his head and joined the pope. Both the father and the son looked at Alexander next to him.
Under the staring of the father and son, Alexander stepped back and bowed slightly, and then he turned and strode out of the prayer hall in Caesar's arrow.
"Father, do you believe this person?" Caesar asked, looking at the back of Alexander who was disappearing in the distance.
"I believe in you and my child," Alexander VI standing on the steps bowed his head and kissed Caesar's head. "But now we need him to do things for us," said the pope, kneeling on the open ground, and was almost basked. The faint Jew, a servant walked over to grab the collar of the Jew and walked to the corner. "And you should pay more attention to Lucrezia now, after all, she will soon be engaged to Alfonso of Scaly. . "
Hearing his father's words, Caesar's face could not help passing a shadow. He had seen the Alfonso more than once. The young man's manner and appearance were unsatisfactory, but this made Caesar take heart. There was an inexplicable irritability. When thinking of Lucrezia might be fascinated by that beautiful brother Xia Sang, Caesar suddenly lost interest in everything in front of her.
Alexandria was obviously not as sentimental as Caesar. After leaving the Vatican, he took the man back to the house in the Jewish gathering area. Looking at the mess inside, Alexander sent the others out and left him alone.
Did those Jews really get the triple crown?
Alexander pondered over and over again that although the crown was of little significance to him, it did not mean that others were dismissed.
More importantly, who actually mortgaged the money with a triple crown?
Alexander slowly walked to the empty counter, looking at the mottled marks on it, imagining the Jews who counted the gold coins day after day in this basement, his fingers lightly scratched The surface of the counter with various letter symbols was pressed, and then a finger tapped on the top.
Alexander opened the door and asked Uliu, who was waiting outside, to bring a few soldiers in, and then pointed at the counter, which looked unusually heavy, and ordered: "Tear down this counter."
"Master, do you mean to take it apart?" Uliu's eyes lighted up. "Do you mean there is any secret in this counter, is it a dark grid or a secret passage underneath?"
"Uliu you are smart, but sometimes smart people don't like it," Alexander said a little jokingly, and then shook his head. "When you want to find a secret, the secret is often in front of your eyes. be found."
Although it was a bit inexplicable, the clever Moor knew he could n’t ask anymore. He immediately greeted the soldiers and began to dismantle the old and bulky counter. Uliu was a little strange. Alexander did n’t seem to want him to completely destroy this look. Furniture that is very common to go up, when prying off those inlaid wedge grooves, repeatedly told me to be careful.
A counter was soon torn apart, looking at a pile of old wood lying on the ground, Uliu also deliberately stepped on the ground where the counter was originally placed.
Feeling a firm sense of trample on his feet, the Moors couldn't help being disappointed.
Alexander squatted down and looked carefully at the disassembled wood. He was not sure if his guess was correct, or that everything was just his cranky thoughts, but he decided to try it.
If you look closely, you will find that these same seemingly old woods are mixed with some newer materials. Some of these materials are whole blocks of wood, and some are used to fix a certain place. A wedge nail, or simply a piece of cloth that is newer than other felt cloth on the countertop.
"What are you looking for?" Mahimo asked a bit strangely.
"I don't know, but it should be a very important thing," Uliou could only answer in this way. The cautious arrangements along the way, but in the end, the blows that were finally obtained made the Moors a little frustrated, which also made him hope that Alexander could find something Clue, and then give him a chance to redeem his previous failure.
"This kind of place is where those Jews meet in secret," Alexander said while looking for it. "Obviously these money-keepers do n’t want too many people to know this place, even if they are themselves, so if the things or tools here are damaged, they If you ca n’t fix it yourself, you ’ll only find people they trust. ”
Alexander said slowly turning over a piece of wood, which seemed to be a beam supported under the counter. Such a heavy counter and the heavy gold and silver wares accumulated on it over the years, let this beam used to support the counter top. It's already slightly curved.
"Do you know what Joseph is doing?" Alexander suddenly raised his head and asked, seeing Mahimo's stunned look, he couldn't help smiling. "Of course you know, God enlightened Joseph ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Let him marry virginity Mother Mary, and Joseph was inspired by God to accept this sacred mission. "
Listening to Alexander ’s words, Mahimo could only keep nodding. He knew that he could only do so, because what the Lord Lord said was the support that the entire Christian world regarded as existence for thousands of years.
Just somehow, listening to Alexander, Mahimo could always feel something not quite right from it.
That seems to be ... sarcasm?
The monk immediately shook his head and shook the absurd and terrifying thought out of his mind.
"And Joseph, the man who touched the Son and got the glory of God, was a carpenter," Alexander said, raising the beam. "As a tradition of carpenters, they always like to carve in the most critical place. The unique trace of the manufacturer himself, even if this tradition has passed for thousands of years. "
He said that Alexander raised his hand and threw the beam to Uliu, who was already very excited.
"Find this carpenter, this person is at least familiar with those here!"
