Our Civilisation Vol 3: Jusqu'au Dernier Soupir (Our Civilisation in 5 Volumes)

By S.E Al Djazairi

A police inspector enquired about a gold mine that had been recently looted, focusing on four persons who had suddenly become millionaires. They all, however, gave justifications for their sudden wealth. The first explained that his wealth came from a sudden inheritance from his Aunty Rosa, and then cited witnesses, friends and other members of the family who confirmed the inheritance story.The second who did not know the first claimed that his wealth came as a result of a big win at the casino, and he showed pictures of such a big win: he celebrating with other casino members, all crooks in their appearance, yet the pictures acted as evidence in support of his story. The third used the same technique, also citing witnesses, including someone called Jojo, a thin moustached odd looking creep, who even confirmed that it was he who bought the winning lottery ticket.The fourth also relied on dubious looking witnesses who all swore that the fortune came after a treasure was found buried in a garden.The policeman had doubts but everyone's story seemed fine at first impression. If, however, the police inspector investigated further, he would find that all four persons, although not knowing each other, and living north-south, east and west of the gold mine, still all of them pass it on their way home and also pass it on the way to town. The fact that all four became rich precisely after the gold mine was looted was also a strange coincidence. If the policeman knew that they all four either knew someone who worked at the mine, or that they had access to the keys of the main gate, then there was a high certainty that the four of them owed their wealth to the looted gold mine. Our policeman does not need to look for gold traces on their clothes or hands (that we leave to volume 5). If, however, he can show the connections of the four to the gold mine such as by looking at dates of trips and stops, and who travelled where, and who stopped where, and one or two other facts, he can prove the guilt of the four lascars and the lies of their witnesses. If the pictures of the casino can also be proved to be forgeries, and that the ticket of the lottery never existed, and that Aunty Rosa was in reality very poor and that she died in a hospice for the destitute, and that the garden was in fact concreted twenty years ago (by a modern Muslim) then any of the four stories can be proved to be a con. This is indeed what we show in this volume. Also Chapters 1 and 2 and 3 of this volume include the explanations by the four persons, explanations which make no sense at all, are contradictory, and like all lies get lost in unintelligible rants. In volume 4, we will show what happened in reality; how the gold mine was emptied, when, how, and by whom.
