Chapter 123: Nightmare
Background...... Skyscrapers covered in glass curtain walls pretend to stand majestically all around, night is falling rapidly, the neon glittering world is dazzling, the red and green pillars of decorative searchlights reflect the shallow and pitiful clouds, and the colorful lights on the McDonald's M sign are flowing and trembling not far away, and the crowd of people who are bustling with those bewitching lights are obstructively piled up in this world.
The giant LCD screen at the intersection of the pedestrian street is broadcasting the news, and the fashionably dressed beautiful anchor smiles seductively and lightly opens her lips: "The recent scandal incident between singer Zhao Hui and movie star Wang Da ......"
Season β I don't know, spring or autumn, I was wearing casual clothes that I couldn't remember what brand it was, sitting in a chair across from the LCD screen and waiting for someone.
The beautiful anchor babbled about the scandal, and I sat quietly, searching through the crowd, and I was sure that the other party was also searching for me.
The snow-white under the coffee-colored miniskirt, the fluorescent dark green above the cherry-colored glasses, and the clanging silver on the charcoal-black leather coat, I can see and understand this world, but I still want to destroy it.
A middle-aged man in a navy blue tweed uniform dangled out of the crowd and saluted me.
"Your Excellency the Secretary of State for Defense, I think we should talk about it."
I noticed that the collar of the uniform was a golden dragon with teeth and claws, and the flames under its feet.
"Sit down."
I know that his name is Yang Zhengjin, an army second lieutenant, and the leader of the third squad of the special vehicle squadron of the mobile team, but for what is it, there are three strange golden six-pointed stars on his bright red epaulettes, and the surroundings are also decorated with unfamiliar metal pine and cypress patterns......
My name is Liu Yun, Army Major, Captain of the Mobile Team of the 201st Special Operations Regiment, but Yang Zhengjin just said what is the name of Your Excellency the Minister of National Defense......
"I have considered the question of what Your Excellency is going to do, and this matter must not be allowed."
Yang Zhengjin raised his face, which was obviously close to the age of confusion, and said seriously, I remember that he should only be twenty-one years old, what is it for......
"Why not?"
I spoke, involuntarily, as if it wasn't me, but I dimly felt my lips movingβmy own.
"This is not what a sane person should do, the path you are going to take is the path of hell that will drive this country madly to destruction, I can't agree with you, I'm sorry."
"Don't you want to see this country dominate the world?"
"I just don't want to see this country destroyed by the world and plunged into endless darkness."
"You're cowardly."
"I'm just saying what I really think, now that the people are generally carried away by the successive victories, if we continue to fan the flames, the arrogant consciousness of the Celestial Empire will expand infinitely, and we will have to be pushed by the people to wage war against the whole world......"
"So what?"
"That's beyond the country's means."
"No, the potential of this country is beyond the imagination of the World Realm, we only need to give us another ten years to transform this country, and then we will definitely be able to carve up the World Realm with Deao!"
"Unfortunately, that is not possible, why don't you ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Minister of Commerce and Industry? They should be able to understand a little bit what we can do in the economic sphere in what way. β
I felt my lips tremble as the realm of reason crept into some buzzing creatures, their gray-black slime occasionally dripping onto the white marble floor, sizzling and rising a strange dark green smoke.
"They don't know anything! They're just Wenyi's lackeys! They are against me, they will not go with me, they will surely die! β
"Why do you hate Wen Yi so much!"
"I don't hate him at all, but for the sake of this country, anyone who doesn't cooperate with me will die!"
"Including me?"
"Yes!"
"Don't you understand, Wen Yi is you, you are Wen Yi?"
"What?"
I was puzzled, and a chill ran down my spine, and my gaze drifted around me as a group of young men with shaved heads, big earrings, metal boots, and black leather pants swept over my face with contempt, and words flowed through my consciousness, and before they could clearly manifest their figures, they were swallowed up by a sudden blood-red vortex.
"You're not alone, you're actually made up of countless souls with different personalities, including souls similar to Wen Yi, and that's why you chose to work with him, didn't you? He has been the prime minister for eight years, but you are willing to live under him, why do you want to be? Because he is you, what he does is what you do. However, there are other souls in your spiritual realm, you are now controlled by the soul that thirsts for destruction and killing, you don't care about the fate of this country at all, all you want is a burning world, all you want is destruction! β
"Shut up, I don't know what you're talking about! Zhong Xia Huo! β
I called out the name of a man, and I knew that he was me and one of my subordinates, the leader of the second squad of the 1st Special Service Squadron of the Mobile Unit, and the second lieutenant of the army.
Zhong Xiahuo jumped off the M-shaped sign of McDonald's, his muscular body wrapped in a tight jacket, combat pants and open trench coat, his majestic steps made people feel uncontrollable pleasure, and the bell-like sound seemed to have caused the glass curtain wall that indiscriminately reflected all the light to produce a functional crack.
"Kill him!"
I pointed at Yang Zhengjin and ordered.
An indifferent smile appeared on the corner of Zhong Xiahuo's mouth, and he raised his hand from under his trench coat to reveal an assault rifle.
"If we don't suppress your current soul, our loyalty to you will become meaningless, we want to follow a leader full of long-term wisdom to build a world empire with a great future, not with a madman who burns the fire of destruction and self-destruction, we also have a part in the transformation of this country, now this empire is the work of everyone, you have no right to dispose of it according to your own nature!"
Yang Zhengjin stood up and took the initiative to point his chest towards the muzzle of the gun.
"The Chief of the General Staff is right, we need your far-sighted wisdom and not blind and useless passion, please think twice!"
This voice is......
Two men with similar outfits to Yang Zhengjin flashed out of their vision, one of them looked like an eagle wolf, and the other had a slightly feminine appearance, and the names of the two were immediately called up in their consciousness: the former's name was Wang Zhi, a sniper and corporal of the Second Special Service Squadron of the Mobile Force; The latter's name is Liu Bailiang, a member of Zhong Xiahuo's squad, and he is also a corporal.
"China's GDP growth rate will hit a new high in 2020......"
On the big LCD screen, a middle-aged male anchor with a shiny forehead was replaced, chattering endlessly about the country's various data, how many dollars the gross national product reached, an increase of a few points over last year, a few percentage points lower than last year, how many billions of foreign investment were attracted that year, and how many billions of foreign exchange reserves were reached...... In any case, in terms of these numbers, we should live in a great country that is thriving and full of life, prosperity and strength.
Why would I pay attention to this?
Seeing Wang Zhi's face, my thoughts suddenly shattered like a crystal cup falling from a height of 10,000 meters onto the granite.
The 201st Special Operations Regiment was established in 2012 and is directly subordinate to the Ministry of National Defense with the main tasks of counter-terrorism, VIP defense and emergency handling of border crises. In 2015, a special mobile team was formed on the basis of the regiment's teaching company, with three special service squadrons and special vehicle squadrons, and its main task was to provide emergency assistance to various localities in the suppression of riots and counterinsurgency operations.
The so-called anti-riot operation......
"Captain Liu, what should these three people do?"
Zhong Xiahuo's human bell woke me up, and the muzzle of the Type 95 assault rifle in his hand was constantly moving between Yang Zhengjin, Liu Bailiang, and Wang Zhi.
"Kill."
I am not the one who said this.
A sturdy man who was more than half a head shorter than Zhong Xiahuo suddenly inserted himself between me and Zhong Xiahuo, and almost at the same time, three huge white regular script Chinese characters appeared next to his head: Ding Jieyun.
"All of them should be killed, if you don't support them, you will oppose them, you have to suppress and purge them, this is the will of the great leader, where does greatness come from? From the mountains of bones! In the distance, Qin Shi Huang pit seventy-six Confucian students, built the Great Wall, built palaces, and repaired mausoleums, tired millions of people, and the general greatness...... Recently, the founding leader of the People's Republic of China pit 76,000 Confucian students, and the Great Leap Forward and the Great Leap Forward fought to death tens of millions of people, unprecedented greatness! Liu Yun, don't you want to be greater? Go my way! The world belongs to supermen with an incomparably strong will! Use your iron will and the blood of hundreds of millions of people to create an unprecedented history! The great thousand-year-old empire is ahead, get rid of that useless soul, the soul that confuses you, yes, freedom, you need freedom, you need absolute freedom, not to be controlled by anyone, do whatever you want, reshape this country with iron and blood, build an incomparably powerful war machine, and make the prestige of Greater China famous all over the world, isn't it? Yes, you are sober, you should have been sober a long time ago, reach out, we should have been allies in the first place, we are one......"
Ding Jieyun stretched out his right hand to me, and his smile was extremely natural, no different from the smile I had seen before.
The gun rang out, Ding Jieyun fell down, and his left hand in his trouser pocket brought out a pistol.
"Traitor, it's still as insidious as a ghost."
Zhong Xiahuo walked over and spat at Ding Jieyun's corpse.
"Captain Liu, no matter what, I will always follow you."
"Wu Weigong, we will not oppose you no matter what, but for the sake of our common ideals, please think twice!"
Many familiar faces suddenly appeared in front of him.
One of the people who was most important to me, Wen Yi, smiled kindly and held out his hand to me.
That's the hand I really want to hold.
