Chapter 196 Political Events
"Everyone." Grelen knocked on the table and said loudly to everyone.
All the members of the parliament noticed Gleren's arrival.
"Everyone, I believe everyone already knows that His Excellency the President was assassinated at the Hubin Hotel and unfortunately died. I deeply condolences for this. The most urgent task now is to elect a president so that our Rezel Federation can quickly stabilize and not be taken advantage of the opportunity to enter." Grelen said righteously.
"Hmph, Glellen, why did you go to the Lakeside Hotel with the President? Why did you have nothing to do with the President? I'm afraid you're going to do this later." A member of parliament sneered and said.
Other members of the parliament also looked at Glellen.
Gleren's eyes suddenly became sharper, and he said, "I'm fine? A joke, I was stabbed in the abdomen by the criminals. If my guards had not fought with the criminals to death, would I still sit here and talk to you about national affairs?"
Gleren said very pitifully, and several members of Congress who supported him said, "Yes, Your Excellency the Vice President is also one of the victims. It would be too disappointing to doubt him like this."
"I have no other meaning, but I think that before electing the president, we still have to find out the cause of the president's death. I think we have to immediately redirect the images in the private room of the Lakeside Hotel to see if the murderer is this person." The congressman who just spoke said.
The other members of the parliament nodded, "I agree, let's call out the surveillance image first."
“Yes, that’s right.”
"Okay, since that's the case, I've already made the image of the Lakeside Hotel, so everyone can take a look." Grelen said without any worries.
The MP who made the opinion just now stared at Grelen, trying to see something from his eyes, but Grelen's expressionless face and a dull look disappointed the MP. Could it be that it was not Grelen who did it?
The image was projected onto the light screen, but there was a blank space on it, and only the lens was constantly shaking.
The members of the parliament were disappointed again, and there was no clue. What should I do?
"The image photoshoot in this private room is just bad, so there can only be such a shot. However, the murderer was captured by us at the scene. There is no doubt that we can start a trial of him and also want other accomplices of him." Gleren said.
The members of the parliament looked at each other. Although the president's confidants were a little unwilling to give in, they had no choice but to nod and agreed.
"According to my information, this murderer is a pirate from the Rose Pirates. The Rose Pirates is a new pirate group that has only emerged recently. Their captain is the famous Red Bearded Adopted Son, Roger Von Watrefin." Grelen said.
"Is it the big pirate who offers a reward of 240 million?"
"That's right. And there is another important thing. Roger was once an intermediate officer of the Appalachian Kingdom before, which means that this matter is likely to be related to the Appalachian Kingdom." Grelen said with a serious expression.
"The Kingdom of Appalachia? Vice President, you are a little exaggerating. What is the relationship between the Kingdom of Appalachia? Even if you can't be so arbitrary just because Roger was once a soldier of the Kingdom of Appalachia." A member of parliament raised his own objection.
"Yes, I also think this matter should have nothing to do with the Appalachian Kingdom. It is best not to associate the assassination with the Appalachian Kingdom, as it will rise to a political event between the two countries." said a member of parliament.
Everyone also nodded, saying that they did not want to see the evils with the Appalachian Kingdom, after all, this was the national policy set by the president before.
Grelen cursed inwardly, squeezed out a smile and said, "Since that's the case, then we will first arrest Roger's Rose Pirates, and then elect the president before tomorrow."
"I have no objection to the wanted Roger, but it's too urgent to elect a president. Vice President Amin is still patrolling the planet in Bangui." said a member of parliament.
"Don't forget, I am the first vice president. It's his business whether Amin will come back or not, but the presidential election must be completed within tomorrow, otherwise I will automatically become president." Gleren said loudly.
"You! You are trying to seize the throne with power!" a member of parliament said angrily.
"Whatever you say, the presidential election must be completed tomorrow anyway."
The members of the parliament remained silent. They knew that Gleren was deliberately trying to force the presidency by taking advantage of this incident. Amin was far away on the planet of Bangui and could not come back for a while. Even if he wanted to come back, it would be two or three days later.
Many parliamentarians have made a decision in their minds. As a politician, it is their symbol of being able to do everything. Moreover, Gleren is the largest oligarch in the Rezel Federation, controlling one-third of the wealth of Rezel Federation, and following him is not a loss.
Griren came to the broadcast building and launched a national live broadcast notice.
Grelen appeared before the nation's people.
"Dear citizens, something extremely bad has just happened. Our dear President, His Excellency, was assassinated at the Lakeside Hotel three hours ago!" Grelen said with a heavy expression.
His words caused a stir. The people across the country were stunned. The president died. Where will this country go?
Roger and Tatia were buying things on the street at this moment. After seeing Glyren's national live broadcast, Roger's face changed, and he felt a little uneasy, and he felt very bad.
Roger pulled Tatia to a secret place, preparing to see what Grelen said below.
"It was this person who killed Your Excellency the President!" Gleren said, and then a person's avatar appeared on the light screen, which was Zhuo Luo.
"What's going on? How could it be Zhuo Luo?" Tatia screamed in surprise, and Roger said intimidly, "Oh, why did Zhuo Luo be involved in this political incident? It's so bad now.
Gleren continued, "This murderer comes from the Rose Pirates. Their captain is the famous pirate recently, Roger von Watreffen. Now, he is somewhere in the federal government of Razel. I officially issued a wanted order to the people of the whole country. If anyone finds this man, please report to us immediately and never let the murderer who killed the president go unpunished."
"In addition, the new presidential election will begin tomorrow to decide who will be the next president," said Gleren.
