Chapter 28 The Beautiful Girl and the StowawayOn April 12, the slow-moving sail Galen fleet also returned to Manchester. In addition to bringing back a large number of imported raw materials and more than 200 European indentured slaves, there were also thousands of military uniforms ordered by the Azorean garment factory.

But these are not enough to explain the strange attention that Ren Changle received later, because among the people who disembarked, there were also more than a dozen European girls who were first-class in the 21st century, regardless of their appearance or figure!

This is the "compensation" made by the Consulate General of the Azores, Swenbo, to "make up" for the death of a large number of European immigrants at the end of last year due to the forced blockade of too many European immigrants.

The European girls who got off the boat were protected by the police like frightened bunnies and sent to a specially designated health quarantine area in the Long Island New Area, and the army soldiers of a platoon responsible for the safety of the quarantine area were a little distracted.

The appearance of the best little Yanmar quickly made the single wolves through anemic overnight. It is said that after a period of time, one by one, the single wolves were dressed and walked around the staff of the Ministry of Immigration under various pretexts, watching the staff arrange these excellent products into the government or the national hospital of the capital for training.

According to Ren Changle and Shi Wenbo's hints, these European girls are all absolutely original goods that have been "carefully inspected", which makes the wolves with deep traditional complexes smile. But then there was a peculiar apprehension about the so-called "serious inspection".

The vulgar rumors about Swenbo's "breeding beautiful girls" in Europe have made most of the male compatriots secretly itch, and now these European girls who have been "carefully inspected" by the Consulate General. In the end, what is the original Cheng dΓΉ, the crossing wolves who are naturally vigilant about this problem can't sleep all night.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the situation of suffering from gains and losses spread on a large scale again.

At night, a gathering of friends was held in the "One Spoon" in the Long Island New District of Manchester.

Because of the time difference in the voyage, Ren Changle, who missed the news of the Far East and a good show in Congress, was furious at Su Zining's temporary investigation by the Congress after listening to the whole story.

"! What a thing, it's nothing to do when you're just full! What is wrong with Su Zining and Yan Xiaosong? Do you want to investigate the suspicion that I was also smuggled when I was in Europe?! A group of dogs know the neurosis of staying at home and enjoying it! When are we obligation? ”

In a high-end private room with a spoon. Ren Changle scolded and scolded, along with Huo Qian, Zhou Kemin, Zhu Xiaoli and other companions who were in trouble in Europe at the beginning.

"Brother Su, your idol aura has finally been shattered!" Zhou Kemin smiled and held the wine glass. The lieutenant, who had been commended by the Navy Command for his work on the suppression of European pirates, seemed to be much more mature at this time.

"It's just that I don't have the courage to do it, what kind of virtue do they think I don't know? A group of rural migrant workers ...... "Ren Changle seems to have drunk too much." As a result, he regretted it before he spoke, because Huo Qian on the other side had always advertised that he was a descendant of farmers, and Zhu Xiaoli was also a soldier from the countryside.

"Hey, I'm just not reconciled! Why do they always find all kinds of understanding to orchestrate us when we are tired and tired? Ren Changle hurriedly let out a sip of wine and used his drunkenness to hide his recklessness.

"I don't think it's a bad thing. Everyone has been depressed for many years, and there are many things that they want to say that they dare not say, and there is nowhere to say. Now there is a system and environment that allows them to speak out, rightly or wrongly, at least we can hear what they really think. And. I really got it wrong this time. ”

Su Zining waved his hand indifferently, and turned his gaze to Zhou Kemin: "The Navy Command should have received instructions from the Ministry of Defense, right?" You're coming out soon! ”

"Well, General Wang has already issued a combat mission this morning, and now the two light cruisers Liberty and Vostok are undergoing routine maintenance, and the Enterprise is preparing to escort the next batch of merchant ships to the Azores. Therefore, only the Delaware went to the waters near Bermuda Island in advance to do reconnaissance and ocean-going training. A month later. The 'Glutton' was built overtime, and then it was to be requisitioned by the Navy to carry engineering supplies and two platoons of land with the Navy fleet to occupy Bermuda Island and establish ports and forts. ”

Zhou Kemin hurriedly told everything he knew.

Regarding the Navy's hyped European banditry story, Su Zining can imagine the scene of the Navy's current high morale. Although a valuable and one-sided ocean-going combat cannot directly prove whether the navy's combat effectiveness is qualified, it is at least in terms of morale. The navy now dares to operate in the open ocean, instead of the previous offshore navy that could only roam around Manchester Bay.

"What about you, Zhu Xiaoli, why haven't you heard anything about you?" Ren Changle, who had been running the sea for a long time, drunkenly poured wine for Zhu Xiaoli at this time, and pointed in the direction of the National Hospital, "Have you done the Xia Qiu Yu?" I'm surprised, you wooden man, why did Xia Qiuyu take a fancy to you? ”

"Hehe, you know that I belong to the army special combat team, so my affairs are kept secret......" Zhu Xiaoli tasted the imported wine slightly, and he didn't plan to take care of this friend who drank too much and started talking without boundaries.

"Hey, it's still comfortable when we used to be in Europe together, you can do whatever you want, you can say whatever you want!" Ren Changle spread his arms on the back of the chair and looked at a room of friends, his expression was not very natural.

"Everyone has to go back to their normal life trajectory, which is what everyone desperately wants after the catastrophe." Su Zining thought for a moment and whispered his opinion, "But once people settle down, they will be troubled by more emotions, and the direction and content of their extreme desires will change again. The vulgar one says, **Not guilty! ”

At the moment when everyone fell silent, suddenly a series of rapid police whistles came from the street outside Yipinspoon, and dozens of seconds later, several more gunshots rang out!

Zhu Xiaoli was the first to jump up, and then Zhou Kemin also reacted, and the two jumped up and down to the window, and took out their pistols from their waists - the latest six-shot revolver produced by North Industries Company, due to the use of special paper shells. Therefore, it is not possible to directly reload bullets in battle, and can only be replaced with a new revolver magazine to achieve a transitional firearm that fires continuously.

Lifting the curtains and shining through the glass windows, two European policemen pushed a native Indian to the ground in the light of kerosene street lamps on the street. The native Indian appeared to be wounded, and blood was dripping from one leg. He was dressed in a simple linen coat, but not in the style of the more affluent local Dravaare, judging by the hairstyle. Appears to be a hired hand from some Indian tribe further afield.

"Go see what's going on!"

Su Zining thought for a moment, and quickly got up and picked up his suit jacket. After the group looked at each other, they also left the private room.

Under the dim kerosene street lamps, seven or eight passers-by gradually gathered.

The thin body of the young Indian of an unknown tribe who was gagged by rags was handcuffed from behind his back, curled up on the ground and trembled, one thigh was dripping with blood, and his clothes were ragged like a beggar.

The two European-American policemen were panting with their eyes in the air, apparently running a lot of way to capture the Indian, and finally had to shoot to capture him.

"What's wrong? Print what the Dian hired does. ”

Zhu Xiaoli separated the crowd and walked to the police with a group of companions, frowning and looking at YiqiΔ“ in front of him. Expressing dissatisfaction with the police shooting in the streets.

In front of me is an army captain, and more importantly, a Chinese!

After the two European policemen glanced at each other, they hurriedly saluted, as if they really couldn't organize their own Chinese language. One of them simply used English: "Captain, we were patrolling past the night school of technical education, and when we found him sneaking out, we went up and interrogated him, and he ran away, and we caught up." Outcome...... As you can see, we had to shoot! ”

Although Zhu Xiaoli was born as a special soldier, his English level was not as good as that of a person like Su Zining after all, so he could only turn his head to look at Su Zining and the others half-knowingly.

This time, without waiting for Su Zining to say anything, Zhou Kemin took a few steps up, tore open the rags in the mouth of the Indian youth, and muttered in the Drabe Indian language, which was unknown to everyone present.

After a few minutes, the injured Indian finally lowered his head and sobbed softly.

"What did he say?" Su Zining only spoke at this time, and he intuitively found that this Indian guy with the identity of an unknown tribe was not simply trying to do something bad in night school.

"He was a far away place on the west bank of the river, and theoretically belonged to a small tribe in the area that spoke the Delaware language, but when he was a child, his parents' tribe was annexed by the Baohatans, and this time he came with a trading party of the Baohatans, as a labor porter, and slipped away while the other party was not paying attention. Sneaking to the outer islands with a piece of wood, he mingled with the Delaware Indian hired men at the coal mine, and then sneaked into the block while transporting coal to the industrial zone today. ”

Zhou Kemin roughly briefly said what he heard, and when he said that the other party actually swam through the hundreds of meters wide water in the northwest of Staten Island with a single log, everyone couldn't help but be impressed.

Interesting, the 17th-century version of the Great Escape? Or a 17th-century version of smuggling? After Su Zining listened, some bloody pictures appeared in his mind: groups of battered Indians were staggering towards a new country that represented light and justice......

Coughing lightly to dispel the vulgar thoughts in his mind, Su Zining repeated Zhou Kemin's confession in English to the police, and then said, "Did these things happen before?" How is it usually handled? ”

After glancing at his colleagues, one of the younger police officers said, "Indians like this who infiltrated the city have found about three cases in the past two months, and the previous two have been handed over to the Department of Homeland Security." ”

Let Liu Yun's Department of Homeland Security handle it? Everyone was stunned again, as if Liu Yun belonged to the kind of person who was a bit psychopathic in their eyes, especially in the face of those "flawed" European residents or Indians, who usually made extreme measures that were difficult to understand.

The Department of Homeland Security's special police officer, with less than 10 people, can claim to be the Internal Military Police. In the past few months, more than 10 European criminals have been shot by Liu Yun as indentured servants, and the so-called criminal acts are nothing more than petty theft and the like.

In fact, from the original meaning, they can all understand why Liu Yun is so wary of the criminal behavior of European immigrants, and even the extreme way of dealing with it without any compromise. But Liu Yun's devilish comments in the mouths of European-American residents also made people in the Ministry of Justice complain a little.

Liu Yun's explanation is even more speechless: these people are indentured slaves who do not even have the right of temporary residence. Therefore, it is not within the jurisdiction of the country, and their criminal acts fall under the definition and target of the Department of Homeland Security.

"Well, put yourself in your police station first, and the captain will vouch for it, and I'll contact your superiors and the Department of Homeland Security. Also, ask a doctor to treat his wounds! Don't shoot lightly in the future, there are many people in the neighborhood. You're going to get hurt by mistake! Su Zining thought about it for a while, and still planned to meddle in this matter, even if it might be said by some people to overstep his authority.

"Su Zining. You're using me as a shield. When Zhu Xiaoli heard this, his face was rotten.

"Forget it, I'll vouch for it." Zhou Kemin walked up from the side. He handed his ID to a policeman, "Navy Lieutenant, First Officer of the USS Liberty, Zhou Kemin." ”

"Okay lieutenant!" The two policemen hurriedly stood upright, and then walked away with the injured Indian guy between them and the left and right. A group of European-American residents who watched the excitement also left.

"What are you going to do?" Ren Changle, who had not spoken, couldn't help but ask.

"No, I just want to know how the Department of Homeland Security handles this kind of 'smuggling'. Maybe in the future, not only the Indians in the neighborhood, but also the Europeans. ”

After Su Zining finished speaking, he walked away alone. Leave a group of dead friends looking at each other.

The next day, Su Zining came to the most corner of the government office area.

Even the offices of the Ministry of State Security and the Ministry of Religious Affairs, where the office space seemed to be hidden from the eyes of others, were filled with smoke, and the two young men were smoking.

"Stowaways? That's a good word! Brother Su, this congressional hearing has been wronged. The little brother is soft-spoken, and there is really no way to help you fix those tongue-chewing roots! Liu Yun seems to have been working very well in the past few months, and his speech is more "slippery and hypocritical" than at the beginning.

"Don't go around in circles, give me an explanation, I think it's more troublesome, but it's also valuable." Su Zining thought for a moment. directly picked out his opinion, "If I guessed correctly, Li Xiang also looked for you." ”

"Brother Su really sees things very accurately!" Liu Yun was stunned for a moment, quickly opened the drawer, took out a stack of papers, flipped through it, and pulled out a copy of "Not only did I find several cases here, Li Xiangna's immigration department, when sorting out and verifying the Indian employment situation of various enterprises, also found some inexplicable extra people, and basically there were no nearby Indian villages to claim them." ”

"Inexplicably extra people? How many are there? When Su Zining heard this, he shouted in his heart.

"Probably, I'll count...... There are currently 143 people, mostly men. Liu Yun swiped his finger on the text and said the number, "There are a few sneaky and clear offenders, who have been shot by me, and there are just 140 people." ”

"What tribes are they from?" Su Zining took the text and took a brief look, and found that basically these smugglers were concentrated in the mines in Xidian Town, Waidao District and other places, and a small number of them had even infiltrated various production enterprises for several months before they were discovered.

"Tribes you've never heard of, but a handful of Bahatans, Pecots, Mohicans, oh, and a dozen Drawa from both sides of the Song." Liu Yun recalled slightly before answering.

Drava?! Su Zining frowned, stood up, and walked back and forth in the room.

"Li Xiang came to me last time and asked about it, because in his father-in-law's village, there was a young man missing, and I told him the truth, but he didn't dare to go back and say it, haha." Liu Yun grinned and got up and pushed open the window to dispel the smoke in the room.

Is the life of the city of Manchu really so good that it can attract Indians everywhere to smuggle themselves away at the risk of being hostile to their own tribesmen? Su Zining suddenly felt a little funny.

"I know what you and Li Xiang think, you think that such Indians may be the first batch of truly naturalized natives with the strongest sense of belonging, right?" Liu Yun looked at the foreign minister in front of him mysteriously, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "But don't forget, if they are really found by their own clan, what will happen to them, and how much turmoil will they cause?" Now, it's not necessarily good for us. ”

"So?" Su Zi looked at each other quietly, waiting for an answer.

"Don't worry, I'm not the devil you think, it's just to scare people and make an impression on them. In fact, many of the shootings you hear about are fake, unless they are indeed intolerable. These smuggled Indians, along with the criminalized Europeans, have been sent to Silver Valley, across from West Point, where life may have been a little miserable, but it has given them a way to live. When we really have the capital and ability to decompose the influence of those big tribes, we can let them return to a normal life. If there is a similar situation in the future, I will deal with it in the same way. ”

After Liu Yun finished speaking, he stretched hard, then opened the door of the office, turned back to Su Zining and gestured: "Minister Su, would you like to accompany me to the police station in the Changdao New Area, I heard that I have caught a drunk woman on the street and smashed residential houses, a European indentured slave who has just arrived!" I'm going to shoot someone this time! ”

Through the crack in the door, Su Zining found that he didn't know when, there were actually five "internal military police" standing on the lawn outside the door, each with a revolver hanging from his waist, and his body was standing straight.

They are all Europeans of five size and three thick, and they have the same uniform as the police officers affiliated with the police department, but there is an armband on the left shoulder and arm, and a shield with a contrived shape.

You, Liu Yun...... Su Zining threw away the cigarette butt and directly raised the middle finger of his left hand.
