Chapter 32 Chapter Thirty-Two

The ostrich remained motionless, as if aware of the danger.It couldn't fly, it could only flap its wings uneasily, greeted the rising sun with a strange dance step, then flew away towards a sand dune, and Fasuti pulled his bow with all his strength in vain.His muscles ached all over his body, as if he was about to cramp, so Leopard used the ointment in the small bottle on his waist to massage and massage him. "How many women have you played behind my back?" Su Ti sighed angrily, but did not answer. "If you don't tell me, I'll leave you alone. Don't forget that I have water and dried meat here."

"You went to such lengths. Just to ask this?" "Any difficulty can be overcome in order to find out the truth. That's what I learned from Judge Pazar." Upon hearing Yang Zal's name, Suti immediately felt a lot more comfortable.However, Avery and Asher will soon find the policeman's body and start searching for him. "Let's leave quickly." "You answer me first." She threatened Su Ti's lower abdomen with her head, "If you have other women, I will castrate you!" "It's not like you don't know that I married Tapene."

"I'll kill her myself. Any more?" "Of course not." "In a place as sensual as Coptos..." "I'm here to be a miner. After I set off, there's only desert." "There are absolutely no saints in Copthorne." "I am." "I should have killed you when I met you." "Shh, look!" Avery found the body.He untied the police dog from its leash, and saw the dog sniffing the air, but refused to leave its owner.After discussing with Asher, Avery immediately started back on the road. After all, fleeing Egypt with gold is much more important than hunting down a dying person.The policeman is dead, and the wealth happens to be divided equally between the two.

"They're gone." Leopard whispered. "Follow them." "Are you crazy?" "Asher can't escape my palm." "Have you forgotten what's going on with you now?" "Thanks to you, I'm much better. I should get better faster by walking a little bit." "I actually fell in love with a madman." * * * Pazar sat on the roof balcony, quietly watching the east.He couldn't sleep, so he went outside to admire the sky full of stars.The clouds are high and the sky is clear, the shape of the Pyramid of Giza can be seen faintly, and the dark blue sky covering the pyramid will soon emit the first light of dawn.The ancient country of Egypt, which was built with boulders, love and truth, and enjoyed peace for thousands of years, slowly unfolded in the chaos before dawn.At this time, Pazar is no longer the elder of the gate hall.Not even a judge, he just wants to forget himself and throw himself into the infinite.At the moment when the visible and the invisible are finally combined, communicate with the spirits of the ancestors and listen to their every whisper from the land.

Nefiri walked up to him quietly, barefoot. "It's not dawn yet...you should sleep more." He said softly. "This is my favorite moment. The golden light is about to leap over the mountain, and the Nile is about to wake up. What worries you?" How should he, a judge who firmly believes in the truth, confess to his wife? In fact, he also has doubts in his heart.Everyone thinks that he is extremely firm and his emotions are not affected by anything, but who knows that everything has a great influence on him and sometimes even hurts him?He does not allow evil to exist, and is unwilling to bow to sin.Time can never erase Bujini's unjust death.

"I want to give up, Nefiri." "you are too tired." "I admit that Cam is right. Even if justice exists, it is not feasible." "Are you afraid of failure?" "The evidence I have collected is complete. The accusation is clear and well-founded...but Dennis, or his party secretary, may still take advantage of legal loopholes and make all these efforts go to waste. If this is the case, why continue!" "It's just that you're bored for a while." "Egypt has lofty ideals, but it still cannot stop the existence of people like Asher."

"But you stopped him just in time, didn't you?" "After him, there will be a second, second Asher..." "If one patient is cured, there will be another, second... Shouldn't I heal them any more?" He gently held her hand: "I'm not a competent judge." "That's an insult to Matt." "But how can a real judge doubt justice?" "You doubt only yourself." At this time, the rising sun covered the body, dazzling, but also warm. "This is betting on our future, Nefiri." "We fight not for ourselves, but to brighten the light that united us. It is sinful to stray from the path that should be taken."

"You are stronger than me." She smiled and joked, "Tomorrow it will be you who cheers me up." The two embraced again to welcome another sunrise. * * * Before heading to the prime minister's office, Pazar sneezed a dozen times, causing severe pain in the back of his neck.Nefeli didn’t panic either, she fed him the juice decocted from willow leaves and bark (the willow tree contains the main ingredient of aspirin, so the Egyptians can be said to have “invented” it as early as 2,000 BC And use aspirin), this medicine is very effective in treating high fever and various pains.

The medicine really took effect very quickly.Pazar felt that his breathing was much easier, and he also seemed to have a sudden change of spirit in front of the Prime Minister, but Budge's back seemed to be getting more and more hunched. "These are the complete files of General Asher, Dainis the transporter, Xieqi the chemist, and Kadash the dentist. As the elder of the gate hall, I request the Prime Minister to open a court for treason, threat to national security, intentional murder, prostitution, and corruption. Wait for the charges to be prosecuted. Although some doubts have not yet been clarified, the charges have been established, and I don’t think there is any need to wait any longer.”

"It's a big deal." "I know." "The defendants are all people of status and status." Baji was not without scruples. "So their actions are all the more reprehensible." "You are right, Pazar. Although Asher's whereabouts are still unknown, I have decided to hold the court after the festival of the Goddess of Ope (goddess of the hippopotamus, symbolizing spiritual and material abundance)." "There has been no news from Su Ti." "I'm as concerned as you are. So I sent a team of infantry, assisted by special police, to scour the desert around Coptos. Also, have you found Blarney's killer?"

"No. Not a clue." "I want to know who did it." "I will definitely continue to investigate." "Nefeli's campaign for Surgeon General makes the situation a bit complicated. Someone will surely accuse you of maliciously slandering Kadash in order to pave the way for your wife." "I've thought about that too." "What's Nefiri thinking?" "She thought that if Kadashi was an accomplice, he should be punished." "You don't have the capital to fail. Neither Dainis nor Xieqi are easy to deal with. I'm worried that Asher will use his tricks and there will be another big reversal of the situation. Kuangyue criminals are always good at sophistry." "I am very confident. Because in front of you, lies will never stand up." Pazar said. Baji put his hand on the copper heart around his neck.With this gesture, he put the prime minister's duties first. * * * The conspirators hold another emergency meeting at the abandoned farmstead.Dai Nisi, who is always sure of winning and full of confidence, seems to be preoccupied today. "We must act immediately. Pazar has given the file to Baji." "Is it just a rumor or does he really have important evidence?" "The Prime Minister has scheduled a court date, just after Opel Day. It's good that Asher is involved, but I don't want my reputation to be compromised." "Didn't the Shadow Eater paralyze Fuzar long ago?" "He's had bad luck. But he won't give up." "Useless promises. You're about to be sued!" "Don't forget we're the ones in charge. We just need to use a little cunning." "Won't you reveal your identity?" "No, a simple letter is enough." Dai Nisi's plan was agreed by everyone.He added: "In order not to have the same trouble again, I propose to take the next step - to replace the prime minister. In this way, Pazar will not be able to play any tricks." "Isn't it too early?" "Just wait and see, now is the most favorable moment." * * * Before Asher and Avery could react, the police dog jumped out of the car and rushed towards a small knoll full of gravel. "When the owner died, it was like crazy," Avery said. "It's not needed now," said the general. "I'm sure we're out of patrol range, and there's no more hindrance." The police dog was foaming at the corners of its mouth and leaping between the rocks.Completely ignore the sharpness of the gravel.Su Ti asked the leopard to lie on the sand, while he bent his bow and was ready to go.The dog came to a sudden standstill as it came within range of the arrow. Dogs and humans are in a state of tension.Su Ti knew that the arrow could not be missed, so he patiently waited for the bulldog to attack first.In fact, he was really not happy about killing a dog.Suddenly the dog uttered a howl, and sat down, imitating the sphinx's position.Su Ti put down his bow and arrow, walked to the dog and stroked it lovingly. The dog didn't resist, but showed tired and anxious eyes.Having just escaped a ruthless master, will it be able to find a new one? "Come on." Suti said softly. It wagged its tail excitedly, and Suti had a new ally. * * * The drunk Kadashi staggered into the tavern.The inescapable court hearing really shocked him.Although Dennis repeatedly assured that the plan was perfect and invisible, Kadashi was still worried.He felt that he might not be able to resist Pazar, and after Yebo was prosecuted, he would no longer be the Chief Physician.So he needs self-anesthesia.Drinking is not enough, he also has to throw himself into the arms of a prostitute to relax. One of the largest taverns in Menwies has been returned to Shabab, and the reputation is far and wide.The women here always recite poems, dance, and play music before providing sexual services to noble and wealthy guests. Kadashi slammed open the door, pushed aside a girl who was blowing boxes, rushed at a Nubian waitress with a pastry tray, and pushed her onto a colorful cushion in an attempt to rape her.The girl's scream startled Shabab.She hurried over and pulled the dentist away with one hand. "I want her." Kadashi pointed to the girl on the ground, and the little girl hid in Shabab's arms in fright. "She's just a waitress." "I just want her!" "You leave immediately." "I'll pay whatever you want." "You keep the money, get out immediately." "I must get her, I swear I must get her." Kadashi walked out of the tavern, but did not stay away. He hid in secret and watched the staff of the tavern.It was not long after dawn that the Nubian girl returned home from work with several other maids. Kadash stalked his prey.When he reached a remote alley, he immediately grabbed her by the middle and covered her mouth with his hand.The girl resisted desperately, but in the end she couldn't stop Kadashi's brute force.He took off the girl's clothes, jumped on him and raped her. * * * "My colleagues," said the Elder Councilor, "the appointment of the Chief Physician cannot be delayed any longer. Since there are no other candidates, one must be chosen between Neferi and Kadash. As long as no decision is made, we must Continue to discuss." This statement was unanimously endorsed by members.So the doctors all spoke enthusiastically, some calmly, while others spoke impassionedly.Those who support Kadashi's attacks on Nefeli are quite sharp.Didn't she use her husband to incriminate Kadashi and make him a complete failure?Such a person who ruins the reputation of a famous doctor with such obscene means is really not qualified to be the Chief Physician. A retired surgeon also said that Ramses the Great's dental disease was getting worse and he needed an experienced dentist by his side.Pharaoh is the foundation of the country's prosperity, shouldn't he be given priority?No objection was raised. After four hours of tit-for-tat, voting began. "The next Chief Physician will be Kadashi." The Elder Committee finally announced. * * * Two wasps flew around Suti for a few minutes, then turned to attack the dog, which was chewing the jerky.Su Ti watched carefully, and finally found out the hole they were hiding in the ground. "This is your chance, take off your clothes." Suti said. Leopard Pan had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, so he took off his clothes and leaned on Su Ti. "Don't be busy making love yet." "Then why..." "I'm going to dig out part of the hive, so I have to wrap my whole body tightly." "If you get bitten, you're sure to die. These wasps are terrible." "Don't worry, I intend to live to be very old." "So you can sleep with other women?" "Help me put my hat on." After confirming the location, Su Ti began to dig.The leopard directs his every move.He was covered with cloth, which the wasps could not sting through.Finally he put a swarm of buzzing wasps into the sheepskin bag. "What are you going to do?" "Military secret." "Stop joking around." "You have to believe me." She placed her hand lightly on his chest.Just listen to him say firmly: "Asher must not be allowed to escape." "Don't worry, I'm familiar with the desert." "If you lose track..." Before he finished speaking, the leopard knelt down and began to caress his thigh, so aggressive, so slow, and provocative that Su Ti finally couldn't help it.Between the ferocious wasp and the dozing giant dog, the two enjoyed wild passion upside down. * * * Nefiri was shocked.Since entering the hospital, the Nubian girl has been crying non-stop.Traumatized physically and mentally, she clung to the doctor's hand like a drowning person.The beast that raped and took her virginity escaped, and Thana was clearly seen by several people, but only the victim's own confession could bring him to justice. Nefiri applied medicine to the injured vagina and gave the girl some sedatives.After she calmed down a little, she agreed to drink something. "Do you want to talk?" Beautiful black girl looking at doctor with lost eyes. "Will I be healed?" "I promise I will." "I've got vultures in my head and they've eaten my stomach... I don't want that beast's baby!" "Will not." "What if I'm pregnant?" "I will abort you myself." The girl began to cry again, and after a few whimpers, she said: "He is very old and smells of alcohol. When he attacked me in the tavern, I noticed that his hands were very red, his cheeks were high, and there was a smear on his high nose. Some veins. A devil, a spontaneous devil!" "Do you know what his name is?" "My boss knows him." * * * This is Nefili's first foray into the entertainment venue. The decoration and smell inside are indeed lingering and indulgent. Sure enough, Shabab did her best to decorate the tavern with a full atmosphere. Prostitutes can easily seduce customers who are frustrated in love. . As soon as the boss heard that the doctor who had treated her in Thebes was visiting, he immediately came out to greet her. "It's a pleasure to receive you. But you're not afraid of damaging your reputation?" "It doesn't matter." "You've cured me, Nefiri. I've been following your orders. The rheumatism is almost gone. You seem tense and preoccupied... Does this place make you uncomfortable?" "The maid in your tavern was raped." "I thought there was no rape in Egypt anymore." "It's a Nubian girl, now in the hospital. Her body will recover soon, but this will be her shadow for the rest of her life. She roughly described the suspect's appearance and said that you recognize him." "If I speak out, will I need to appear in court in the future?" "of course yes." "My only purpose in doing things is to be cautious." "It's up to you, Shabab," Nefiri said, turning around and leaving. "You have to be considerate of me, Nefiri! If I come forward, my illegal business will be exposed." "I only care about that girl's pitiful eyes." Shabab bit her lip: "Will your husband keep this tavern for me?" "I can't promise you that." "The culprit is Kadash. He has troubled girls here. He was drunk and rough." * * * Pazar was sullen and frowning, pacing incessantly. "Nefeli, I don't know how to tell you the bad news." "Is it so serious?" "It's so unfair and terrible!" "I'm about to convince you of a terrible thing. You must arrest him at once." He goes to his wife.Hold her face up. "You cried." "Yes, Pazar. I investigated, and now it's your turn to close the case." "Kadashi has been elected Chief Physician, and I just received the official document." "Kadashi: A vile and shameless murderer who raped a virgin girl."
