Chapter 387: Influenza (2) Spreads
As a result, London, England, began to be shrouded in a haze of super-strong currents, sickness, and poison. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
From 50 AD, the first Celtic town was built here by Roman invaders. Until 1796, it has become the political center of the British Empire. London spans more than 17 centuries.
During this time, London was destroyed and rebuilt numerous times.
The earliest was in 61 AD, when Queen Boudicca led the populace in a rebellion against Roman rule. As a result, London was reduced to ashes under the fires of war. Later, in 407 AD, with the withdrawal of the last Roman troops from the island of England, the towns of London were empty.
Later, the Danes invaded England twice, looting, burning and destroying most of the towns. London, as a bridgehead, is naturally not immune.
Until the Norman leader of northwestern France, William William, was related by blood and participated in the battle for the throne of England. As a result, London became the capital of England in the 12th century. It is also gradually coming to an end, and the encounters that have been repeatedly destroyed by the war.
But the last time, a fire broke out in 1666, which caused London heavy losses. According to later statistics, more than 13,000 houses in the city were destroyed by fire, and more than 800,000 people were left homeless.
Now rebuilt, the London city is full of stone and brick houses. It is also to avoid repeating the mistakes of the London Fire in 66 years.
At the moment, on the London Bridge, a blonde girl, wearing a long rococo dress with a corseted waist, hurried to the opposite riverbank. A hazy crescent moon shone down, reflecting the debris floating on the surface of the river.
A few drunkards who were hanging out on the bridge immediately looked stunned, and looked at the blonde with straight eyes.
Looks very ill-intentioned!
They winked at each other and walked quickly closer to the blonde. As if aware of it, the blonde's pace also suddenly accelerated. The drunkards, without thinking about it, quickly followed.
So that after a while, the blonde and a few drunkards ran one after the other. But around the corner, the blonde suddenly slammed her right foot and fell to the ground. The drunkard who followed closely behind was immediately overjoyed and hurried around.
Just listen: "Miss! It's not safe to go out alone at night! One of them, a middle-aged drunkard with a pockmarked face, reminded in a weird way.
"Yes! Especially a young lady like you, who looks so good! ", replied another younger drunkard.
Seeing that the blonde was still with her head down, he comforted him even more proudly: "Don't be afraid, miss! I, Jade, will protect you. It's just that there will be some payment. The expression of the eyebrows fluttering is understood by a man.
As soon as the words were finished, the drunkards present laughed happily. The middle-aged drunkard who spoke first unbuttoned his trouser belt and was ready to go.
But at this time, the middle-aged girl, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly raised her head.
Surprisingly, there was not much panic on her face, but she was surprisingly calm. This made the triumphant drunkard a little unhappy.
Just as she was about to scare a few times, the blonde bent the corners of her mouth and showed a sneer. Without waiting for them to speak, he swept his long legs and tripped the five drunkards to the ground. Immediately, he cried out in pain and scolded. But in the nearby alley, seven or eight men and women dressed very ordinarily suddenly rushed out. But judging from their grim expressions, they are obviously not ordinary people.
The drunkards who have just gotten up from the ground also know that it is not good. He viciously warned the blonde and ran away. But before they could take two steps, the men and women who rushed out had already caught up with them.
Without further ado, he slashed them with a knife and knocked them unconscious.
Then he neatly picked up the drunkards and disappeared into the depths of the alley. The blonde woman pretended to be in a hurry and hurried down the street. So there were thieves, robbers, thieves and other people of all religions and nine streams followed, but without exception, they ended up with the same fate as the drunkards.
At dawn, under the corner of St. Paul's Church, drunkards, ghosts, thieves, and robbers woke up. Since the church often gives away some donated materials such as food and clothing, the wanderers in London will gather near the church.
It is not surprising that there are more drunkards, thieves, and robbers.
At this time, James shook his head, looked at the dazzling sunlight above his head, and felt that it was a little unreal. Because he clearly remembered that he was knocked unconscious at night. How now, unscathed, appears here.
I asked my companions, and they couldn't believe it.
But if they can't figure it out, they don't bother to think about it. While discussing where to get the wine, he walked away quickly.
And by the window on the third floor of the church, the blonde was expressionless, watching them disappear from sight. Until the church bell rang, the bell rang. The blonde turned around and said coldly to a row of young men and women, "Have they all confirmed?" ”。
A brown-haired Caucasian man hurriedly stepped forward and responded, "Report to the stationmaster!" As you commanded, they've all been injected. ”。
When the blonde heard this, she picked up the syringe on the table. When a drop of clear liquid dripped from the tip of the needle, she immediately smiled meaningfully.
And in a tavern in London's Bruthbury district, the drunkard James was happily drinking rum with his companions. Compared with yesterday, their luck today is much better. Not only did she succeed in snatching a woman's purse, but she also bought twice as much rum as usual.
It's just that it may be the cause of the cold last night, and he and his companions have a slight cough.
But that's okay too. Usually when they feel uncomfortable, that's how they gulp and drink. As a result, the body naturally got better.
So James, drank five bottles in a row. But his head was getting heavier and heavier. But he didn't believe that he was drunk. Because with the amount of alcohol you drink, you can drink at least ten bottles. I don't know what's going on today, but before I'm halfway drunk, I'm drunk.
Looking at his companions, they also fell on the table one by one, and they couldn't even pick up the wine bottles. This made him feel better. After all, in this case, it won't seem like he's too cowardly.
So his consciousness emptied, and he collapsed on the wooden table.
It didn't take long for the cough to start. James, who was asleep, was also woken up by a violent cough. It's like having a caterpillar in his throat that makes him itch uncomfortably. At the same time, the whole person is also extremely tired. I was so tired that I couldn't even lift my fingers.
The body, too, is like throwing it in the bakery and grilling. He was so hot that he was very thirsty. I wanted the guy to pour some water to drink, but the owner of the shop saw that they seemed to have some kind of epidemic. So let the guys, hide their eyes, and throw them out.
The next day, there were five more corpses in the alley near the tavern. Things like this are also commonplace for patrolling police. I just cleaned it up casually and sent it to the messy grave. (To be continued.) )
