Volume 4 Blood Lake Chapter 118 Internal Contradictions
When the fear that fills the heart cannot be released, the search for relief and a way out is a reflexive response. But that unscrupulous means in a panic will inevitably lead people astray.
On a street in the center of Black Lake City, a numb figure passed through the crowd, like a wandering spirit that could not be touched by the world. Because they are afraid of the current status quo and can't do nothing and wait for death, such people eventually appeared.
Unwilling to cooperate with Black Lake City, unwilling to believe in the Watchmen, and unwilling to join the Fallen Country, just following the path he thinks is right. As long as that path can keep him alive, or let the people he cares about live.
After a long time, they have once again split from Black Lake City.
Looking at the speech of the mayor of Black Lake City in front of the media on the big screen, he looked numbly, pursed his face with disdain, and just scoffed at it.
“...... I'm sure people have already found out, right? In fact, we can win over the country, as long as we can unite with the outside world, unity and cooperation can be mutually beneficial and win-win......"
In this atmosphere of growing tension, the mayor held several speeches and press conferences in an attempt to reassure the people's emotions. As a result, although many people are making a lot of noise, the vast majority of those who are willing to cooperate. It seems that although Black Lake City is already in chaos, as long as there is a big leader like the mayor, Black Lake City will definitely break the connection.
The numb figure smiled, looked at the propaganda poster beside him, and turned to leave with a tear of his hand.
"Mayor, there was a case in the Hongye Development Zone of Heihu City, where dozens of citizens died, and except for one ordinary citizen, the rest were identified as one of the people who called themselves 'Heihu City Autonomous Group'. ”
In the mayor's office, another case came one after another, dealing another blow to the mayor, who was already too busy to get out.
These days, all kinds of strange things are still coming out, and the city center is very busy at all. Those who commit suicide, cry like children and shout to go home, and even ordinary citizens kill people to show their loyalty to the country......
At present, the Black Lake City Dead Country Guards have basically been wiped out, leaving only some people around Peng Yuyun, and those who are considered enemies and defected to Li Zhucheng's Dead Country Guards. I thought that things were going to come to an end gradually, but the reality always added tasks to them again and again.
On the day of the first attempt to attack the city, although Bai Nanyu successfully repelled the Dead Country, and also showed that there were loyal Black Lake City guards within Black Lake City, people's fear still did not subside.
What's more, on this day, while Bai Nanyu was not in Black Lake City, there was another internal accident.
A team sent by the "Black Lake City Autonomous Group" to the so-called "Peng Yuyun's headquarters" lost contact at the destination point. It is worth mentioning that when law enforcement arrived there, they found that the crime scene was on the street, and it was already a long time after the crime.
It's been so long, and it's on the street, so no one will see it, right?
What can be thought of is the people who saw it at the time, and none dared to speak out. Because their voice is not necessarily useful, they are likely to be killed, and they don't know if anyone will save them.
This kind of psychology is really all over Black Lake City, and only a small number of people can really unite.
It was also a long time later that Bai Nanyu and the Bad Boy Alliance got the news that the team that Xu Wenxin was following was attacked and taken hostage. But not long after, because someone came to forcibly take the hostages before Bai Nanyu, the group of attackers decided to tear up the tickets.
When Bai Nanyu arrived, the law enforcement department had not yet arrived, after all, Bai Nanyu's speed was several times that of them, and he flew over at a speed like a meteor.
At that time, the streets were already in shambles, with cars smoking and more than one or two. It's hard to imagine how they could have prevented such a bold act from being made public in time, could it be that they had already turned their weapons on the people at that time?
Walking past the fallen corpse facing this side, Bai Nanyu squatted down, gently probed his nose, shook his head and continued to move forward.
If you look closely, most of these fallen people have signs on their bodies, but there is only one person who does not have any signs, and there are no iconic objects around. Maybe this person is an ordinary citizen, and he tried to call the security department and was killed in public, so people chose to remain silent.
Although it is said that it is the task of the security department to deal with these people, if people continue to remain silent as before, the brave men who are willing to sacrifice will die in silence sooner or later.
Suddenly, a movement attracted Bai Nanyu's attention, and when he looked around, it turned out that Xu Wenxin was quietly running over.
"Xu Wenxin, what's wrong with you, what's going on here?" Bai Nanyu hurriedly walked over, but he hugged him and crouched down behind the cover, as if there were hidden snipers all around.
"A lot of people died, but for some reason, they left me behind. Xu Wenxin gasped.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or deliberate, Xu Wenxin is actually the only "member of the Black Lake City Autonomous Group" who has not been killed. Originally, when he found out that he was going to be ambushed, Xu Wenxin wanted to send a message to Bai Nanyu, but he was still a step too late. His mobile phone was knocked off by someone who suddenly rushed out, and the otherwise peaceful street instantly became chaotic.
At that time, Xu Wenxin shouted, "Pick up my mobile phone and call Bai Nanyu", and after hearing this, someone immediately ran towards the mobile phone with anticipation, but the attacker fired a few shots, causing those people to quickly turn around and disperse.
When he looked at the phone again, it had already been picked up by someone, and the angry attacker began to search for it one by one, and finally noticed a person who was holding the phone but did not dare to move, and did not hesitate to kill him as an example. This behavior made people flee everywhere in a hurry, not daring to interfere in the affairs of the place again, although someone called the security department later, but by that time it was too late.
What happened after that, as described earlier, was that someone rushed to save people, but it led to the killing of the group of Black Lake City Autonomous Groups and their tragic death on the streets.
Then why didn't Xu Wenxin die? That's because before preparing to execute Xu Wenxin, someone said to Xu Wenxin, "Why do you have Bai Nanyu's phone number?" So when Xu Wenxin was executed, those people hesitated, let him go, and fled.
Let go of Xu Wenxin and run away?Why?
Just as he was thinking, a hurried footsteps came, and before he could react, Bai Nanyu first met his eyes with the group of people. Then, she followed the sight of the group of people and looked at Xu Wenxin beside her.
"Xu Wenxin? It turns out that you and Bai Nanyu know that guy? You are a spy sent by her? Why! We didn't do anything bad, why do you spy on us?"
As soon as he stood still, the man in the cap screamed without saying anything. Bai Nanyu didn't come back to his senses for a while, looked at Xu Wenxin, looked at the corpse on the ground, and waved his hand at the people who came.
"No, I just...... I'm just afraid you're going to make the wrong move...... Because you're too impulsive right now......"
"I've put up with you for a long time, is our move wrong or right to be measured by you, a little brat?" The man wearing the cap slammed the cap off and pointed at Bai Nanyu's nose and criticized it, "You don't have that ability, what are you?" Don't think that you can stand on our head if you have done a few good deeds, tell you, we will always be your predecessors, and show respect to Lao Tzu!"
After receiving an inexplicable scolding, Bai Nanyu frowned, and didn't know whether to be angry or show weakness. But now that we haven't figured out what happened, let's not argue with that group of people.
Yes, look into it first.
"What are you going to do?" Bai Nanyu had just turned around and was about to investigate, when the man in the peaked cap shouted loudly.
"I'm going to see what's going on, it's not a way to fight around like this now, isn't it, at least to figure out the situation first. After Bai Nanyu finished speaking, he turned around again, but was pulled back by his arm.
"I said, will there be any problems with your Xu Wenxin, after all, he escaped from Peng Yuyun's side. The man in the cap said, his eyes staring at Xu Wenxin. It felt like he had caught his prey, but Bai Nanyu also understood that he was just furious because he had lost a group of comrades.
Just about to refute him, after thinking about it, Bai Nanyu still nodded weakly and looked at Xu Wenxin, as if he was hinting at something.
"Well, for safety's sake, we should get you to the vigilantes. After speaking, Bai Nanyu looked at the people around him again, "Also, if he is wronged, don't forget to apologize." ”
"That'...... That one...... Bai Nanyu ...... Look at this ......" Xu Wenxin suddenly patted her from behind Bai Nanyu and handed her a note.
The note was small, with crooked handwriting on it, and it looked like it had been written in a hurry, but what was it?
Help me......
Another night is coming, just like this season, and perhaps the day in Black Lake City will gradually become shorter.
Imperceptibly, the traffic flow in Black Lake City has become loose, and the only thing that may not change is the lonely street lamp on the side of the road, which still shines like that, illuminating the way forward for people. Yes, there are fewer and fewer of them, but the street lights are still shining, shining empty, hoping to show others the way forward.
Wu Shengquan, the leader of the security team, took advantage of the night that had just fallen to go to the branch of the security team, preparing to take a good rest after completing this last case.
Looking at this lonely street lamp, he took out his mobile phone and flipped through the photos, thinking back to the day when Bai Nanyu captured the Dead Country Guards first. Those people may have stopped chewing their tongues by this time, but they were partly silent.
The back under the street lamp was subjected to countless accusations, although there were countless complaints, but they still had to be pressed in their hearts and continue to work professionally. I thought that I would continue like this until one day I couldn't hold back anymore and collapsed, but who would have thought that that kind stupid boy would actually let the captain of the guard team whom he admired the most come to talk to him.
Regardless of whether people cared about Bai Nanyu's words or not, at least he had heard Bai Nanyu's heart, no matter what, he thought that he had to continue with this touch.
Even if one day, he will die because he continues to stand in front of people.
The branch was in front of him, but Wu Shengquan's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his brows were tightly locked. Following his line of sight, behind a window, a figure was standing by the window, and because it was very soundproofed, he didn't know what was going on inside.
Maybe it's thinking too much, Wu Shengquan shook his head, and looked over again, but found that a shadow covered with some liquid appeared on the curtain, and the person was gone.
Did something happen? Wu Shengquan hurriedly took out his pistol, walked to the security booth, looked at the bleeding security guard, and sniffed. The security guard is alive, it seems that someone knocked him unconscious, and someone must have infiltrated the branch.
Without hesitation, Wu Shengquan took out his mobile phone and entered the branch office while dialing the number of the branch office. However, no one answered after a few calls, and when he was thinking about it again, a hand stretched out from a door caught his attention.
It seemed that someone was there, Wu Shengquan leaned against the wall and quickened his pace, looking at the figure on the ground, his breathing couldn't help but become short.
This person is not dead, but it is almost there, he seems to be pointing at something, trying to make Wu Shengquan notice something.
Is it over there?
Turning his head sharply, Wu Shengquan subconsciously jumped into the room with the door open, and several bullets passed by him.
Who's that? Can't let him go. Thinking so, Wu Shengquan leaned against the wall and probed his face sideways. A figure moved in the afterglow, Wu Shengquan hurriedly retracted his head, calmed down for a few seconds and probed again, the figure seemed to stand up and run away.
Poking his head out, the figure had already walked to the door at the end of the corridor and fired a blind shot at Wu Shengquan's side.
Retracted and dodged, Wu Shengquan immediately rushed out without hesitation, and shot the leg of the figure who had just run out a few meters. The shot seemed to be a bullet with an eye, and it hit the man's leg with great precision. At this time, he took advantage of the victory and rushed out of the gate, which was the back door of the branch, where a black car was parked.
But what made Wu Shengquan more concerned was not the car, but the man who was helping the man who was shot into the car.
"Captain Liu, you ......"
Hearing Wu Shengquan's call, Captain Liu smiled coldly, pushed the person he was holding into the car and got into the car.
The acceleration of the car was very fast, and before Wu Shengquan could catch up, the speed of the car was already out of reach. There was only one way in the end, Wu Shengquan fired two shots at the wheels, although the car still did not stop, but it may be able to track it later.
Captain Liu actually escaped from prison, looking at the direction where the vehicle was gone, Wu Shengquan panicked, and just reluctantly returned to the branch.
