Chapter 885 Cemetery
The structure of Ita's small town is similar to that of Chascomus, both of which are divided into "tofu blocks" by narrow streets. The entire city is overlooked from the air, like a Go board.
The small town is dominated by Hispanic and Italian Paraguayans, and there are also some German and Indian mixed races in the city, but in general, white people are still the majority.
In the neighborhood near a cemetery to the northwest of the city, Yang Jing and his team found the house where Martin Bowman lived at that time.
According to the information obtained by Yang Jing, after Martin Bauman fled to Paraguay again from the Argentina's seclusion Chascomus, he came to Ita with the pseudonym Herman Schroeder, and bought a house here, and then continued to live in seclusion.
Unfortunately, not long after arriving at Ita, Martin Baumann was replaced with gastric cancer. He persisted for four years. In the end, the executioner did not die on the gallows of the Allied forces, but died in a local hospital. His body was buried in the cemetery not far from the house where he lived.
As for the skeleton dug out at the Reelt Station in West Berlin, although it was undoubtedly Martin Baumann tested after DNA, Yang Jing believed that Martin Baumann did die in Ita at that time, but later some intelligence personnel bribed the local officials and secretly dug out Martin Baumann's remains and transported back to Germany, and buried them near the Reelt Station.
As for why those intelligence personnel do this, it is actually very simple.
After all, Martin Bowman is a very high-ranking war criminal. As Sitler's secretary-general, he knew a lot of secrets, and the crimes he committed were enough for him to be hanged dozens of times. But such a war criminal who should have appeared on the gallows eventually escaped from Berlin, where the army was blocked. It would be strange if there was no trick in it.
Why can you figure it out with your butt?
It's very simple. Martin Bauman has a lot of secrets of Germany, including clues to those treasures. He was able to escape from Berlin, obviously because he used some clues to treasures.
Don’t think that the Soviet Red Army controlled by Stalin was a good person. In the face of huge interests, few people could defend the bottom line.
Therefore, it is no surprise that Martin Bauman was let go by the Soviets.
Later, since Martin Bauman died of gastric cancer, his body was still useful. For example, taking the above method, secretly transporting his remains back to Germany and digging them out at a "right" opportunity.
How about it, Martin Bowmann wasn't we let go, right? He committed suicide here himself!
So, if you have nothing to do, just accuse us of letting go Martin Bowman!
Maybe someone was greedy for wealth and let Martin Bauman go. This was a very serious mistake. But since the error was caused, I would like to find a way to make up for it. Obviously, using this method to make up for it is a very good way.
Yang Jing asked himself for such a simple thing, if he was the top leaders of those countries, he would have used this method to calm the condemnation of the people in the country.
Moreover, based on the information obtained in his hands, it is enough to prove that although Martin Bauman escaped from Germany and had subsequent trials, the executioner was always in a state of surveillance. But why did the intelligence personnel from these countries not arrest Martin Bauman for trial? This is also very simple.
The reason why Martin Baumann was able to escape to Argentina smoothly is that there must be shameful exchange inside information. If a person like Martin Baumann is arrested again, he will inevitably be subject to public trial and no one dares to execute this guy secretly.
Then the question arises. Once Martin Bowman is subject to public trial, the dark side of his escape to South America will inevitably be exposed. This is undoubtedly a huge humiliation for the Allied government, and may even cause the fall of a certain government.
In this case, it would be better to let him die on his own instead of catching this guy back.
Whether it is Britain, France, the United States or the Soviet Union, they are not as radical as Israeli agents arresting Adolf Hillman. The governments of these countries have to consider too much because their butts are not clean. Do they dare to open up such things?
"Boss, I have confirmed that the house is the house where Martin Bowman lived during his lifetime." On the third day after coming to Ita, Chris gave Yang Jing a certain answer.
With Chascomus' experience, Chris and others are naturally becoming more and more familiar with doing this, especially in a poor country like Paraguay, where money can almost settle everything.
They wanted to query some information for more than 60 years, and directly open the way to the US dollar and do anything. So they easily found relevant information from the archives room of the Ita Municipal Government that had been covered with more than half a century.
"Herman Schroeder, German, entered Argentina on October 23, 1954 by boat along the Parana River, and purchased a house at No. 22 Charles Street in Ita on November 2...Herman Schroeder died of gastric cancer at the San Lorenzo Municipal Hospital in Ita and was buried in the San Loorá Catholic Church Cemetery in Ita at the age of 60..."
Looking at the yellowed information in his hand, Yang Jing also sighed that the charm of money was indeed full of success. Chris and other guys actually took out all the original files in the municipal government archives room.
These archives clearly record how Martin Bauman, who was named Hermann Schroeder, entered Paraguay, and how he bought a house in Ita, even how he died, where he died, and where he was finally buried.
"Boss, this house is now owned by a Hispanic family. We have carefully observed that the family now has an old lady in her seventies, suspected to be the mother of the owner. The owner and his wife have three children under them, two boys and a girl. The youngest girl is in elementary school, and both boys are already in middle school. This family is normal and there is no doubt. Moreover, this house was purchased by the old lady's father in the early 1960s, and it has been more than half a century."
Hearing Chris' words, Yang Jing nodded. It was obvious that this house was born after Martin Bauman died. Because Martin Bauman had no heir, it would be impossible for him to inherit the house to others after his death. Then, after the city government took back the house, it was sold to the grandfather of the current owner of the house after a period of time.
"Let's go, take me over to see the house, and have you found the cemetery where Martin Bowman was buried?"
Chris nodded and said, "Finally found, Martin Bowmann's cemetery was her name Hermann Schroder's pseudonym is still in that cemetery, and it is well preserved. But it is probably empty below." Chris smiled maliciously.
Yang Jing did not hide some of the things in these information from Chris, so he also knew a lot.
"Okay, then let's go over and take a look now!"
The result of looking at the house was naturally not even P. As with the house that Chascomus looked at, the house had been replaced, and the owner of the house had not known how many times it had repaired the house in more than half a century. Even if there was something hidden inside, it would have been discovered long ago.
Yang Jing used the Sky Eye skill, so he naturally could not see any clues, so he had to settle down and took his group to the cemetery.
The cemetery is not far from the house where Martin Bowman lives, just two streets away. The cemetery is not big, and is surrounded by lush trees. Judging from the trunks of these trees, these trees are at least over a hundred years old.
A small Catholic church is located on one side of the cemetery. Such a combination of churches and cemeteries is very common in Western countries. When Yang Jing was hunting treasures in the Philippines, he had seen many such combinations.
Whether it is the Philippines or Paraguay, they were formerly colonies of Spain, so most of the Catholic churches here have cemeteries.
The weather today is a bit gloomy and rare to be cooler, but the cemetery is very quiet and there is no one to see.
Yang Jing ordered Chris and the others to wait outside. He and Princess walked towards the church with two bouquets of flowers purchased from the flower shop outside.
"Yang Jing, why do we put flowers on that executioner?" Princess didn't understand Yang Jing's actions.
"Haha, don't worry, there is a reason for me to do this. Because the information shows that when Martin Bowman lived here, he came to this church every week and donated a lot of things to this church. So, I want to use the identity of the descendant of Herman Schroeder to chat with the priest in the church to see if you can get any useful clues. When you meet the priest later, you will say this..."
The princess was a little unhappy. She knew that the identity of the guy who was going to pay tribute to her today, even if she was pretending, she felt a little confused.
While talking, the two walked into the church, and a priest saw them and came to meet them.
The reason why he held the princess was because Yang Jing didn't understand Spanish, and Princess understood and spoke very well.
Sure enough, the priest said aloud to the two of them, it was in Spanish.
Chapter completed!
