C3637 (2/2)
”Shut up!” ”Otis, get out of here...” Samuel was so scared that he was sweating all over. His assistant had almost blurted it out.
The murals they stole from the Great Buddha's ribs were actually very hidden. Most people could not find them without looking carefully, so the British people had always thought that Shang Tai and the others did not find them at all.
After a period of time, even if they found a mural flaw, they could still push it onto history and not admit it!
Samuel was so scared that his soul almost flew out of his body. He didn't want to turn himself into a mural thief before finding the murderer.
The assistant did not dare to speak any further. He lowered his head and retreated to a corner to sit on the sandy ground without uttering a single word!
Shang Tai just stood there and watched as the Englishman pretended to be stupid. She took a deep breath and said, ”Mr. Samuel, I have already sent a telegram regarding what happened today!”
”I believe that the British Embassy in Beijing will soon find out the details of the situation. Furthermore, I invited Zuo Zongtang's subordinates to coordinate the investigation …”
”What happened? ”Whether it was an accident or if someone really did kill him, I think the investigation will eventually come to a conclusion!”
”Since you all have such suspicions, then please ask this assistant to come with us to explore the site! I think there will always be evidence that a wise person can understand! ”
”Mr. Samuel, please rest first. There will definitely be an explanation for this!”
The British did not expect these Chinese to be so generous as to form a joint evidence team at the first possible moment. They thought that the Chinese would kill them all at once!
When Shang Tai left, Samuel drank a bowl of bitter medicine and said to his assistant, ”Your Majesty is right. If you want to investigate the exploration site immediately, bring my camera and sketchbook and record down everything on the site …”
”When we return, Qing Government and our embassy will give us their analysis... ”Go ahead, I need to rest!”
At this moment, Samuel felt chills down his spine, especially when his assistant had almost blurted it out. He was so scared that his three souls had fled.
It was at this moment that the evil aura entered his body. This was a taboo for patients with cold wind!
The golden-haired assistant led her companions away from the camp and towards the water collecting station. Only then did she realize that there was still another group of people on her left who had already sealed off the area and were taking pictures.
”Sir, I have already ordered the soldiers to seal off the area within fifty steps of the lake …” Take a look, and record it yourself! ”
”However, let me remind you in advance that the water depth below this hole is not even 1.5 meters …” I was wondering, how could this shallow pond drown people? ”
”Hehe …” Even if we Chinese want to kill you, you don't have to do something so stupid, do you? To poison, to find someone to pretend to be bandits, to lure you to the Quicksand District... Isn't that all a way? ”
The Englishman did not respond to the provocation from the left. Instead, she began to record all the data on the spot. She busied herself for the whole day, but by nightfall, the assistant was dumbfounded as well.
”My God! Was this really an accident? No sign of murder? ”
But just as he was running back to the tent to ask Samuel for permission, he realized that Samuel was completely unconscious!
