Chapter 207: Eloquence

While the guerrillas and victims were busy, a group of soldiers arrived at the scene of the fire and began to check the identities of the people at the scene.

One of the officers, who was at the head of the fire, turned around the fire, found the target, and began to interrogate Cassius: "Are you a local?" ”

Cassius put down the log and replied in a modest manner: "I am from the kingdom of Liber. ”

"So, why are you here?"

"I am a guerrilla, and I received an invitation from the Kasley guerrilla branch some time ago to come and support." After Cassius replied calmly, he kindly reminded: "There are still so many fires here that need to be dealt with, there are still so many wounded people who need to be treated, and there are still residents in these houses who don't know if there are stranded residents, why don't you command the soldiers to go into disaster relief?" ”

The officer shouted angrily: "What I need to do, it's up to me to decide, your identity can't be proved by talking, who can prove it to you?" ”

"I can prove it!" The tall Kim stepped out from the side of the firelight. "My name is Kim Wasek, a guerrilla from Kaslai."

"It turns out that he just doesn't move gold! It's really majestic. Among the survivors, there was a cry of admiration.

Kim Vasek was a celebrity in the Republic of Calvard, he won the national martial arts championship at the age of seventeen, and when he won the championship with his bare hands against the opponent's blade, he caused a sensation, and after being interviewed in newspapers and magazines, he joined the guerrilla and won the support of the common people.

Hearing this, the officer scolded this guerrilla who was quite famous in the republic: "Isn't it just a nosy civil organization, what is there to be angry about?" ”

Some of the victims on the side retorted loudly angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, the guerrillas are much better than you guys who eat food for nothing." Our house is on fire, what do you do? Did the arsonist get caught? There have been so many things in the past, so many people have disappeared in the city, when have you played a role? What's the use of interrogating everyone here now, is the arsonist still here waiting for you to catch him? ”

"Shut up!" The officer shouted: "This time we have put the whole city under martial law, and we will definitely be able to find out the villains." ”

"Even if martial law is under martial law, you should inform the police department."

A police inspector walked up and introduced himself, "I'm the city's police chief, Matthew Linde. On behalf of the Police Department, I would like to express my gratitude to all the guerrillas for their hard work, especially for their timely support, especially the fact that the Fudo Gold has come to support the city. ”

After introducing himself, the police chief turned around and said to the officer: "I am very grateful to the army for helping the city under martial law. However, for the citizens of the city, the police are more familiar with it, and the police will take over the work of checking the personnel at the scene. ”

The officer was angry: "If you are really useful, why do you send our army to garrison here, if you want to take over, take over." He shouted to the adjutant, "Order, go back to the camp." ”

"Please wait a minute." Cassius, who had been observing the situation, interjected into the topic at the right time.

"As for the cause of the fire this time, our guerrilla organization does have some inescapable reasons, so we have to inform the military and the police department, but can you please send someone to clean up the fire first?"

"Oh!" The two officials turned their heads together.

Cassius shouted at the various officials who arrived one after another: "The guerrillas are indeed responsible for the cause of the sudden fire in Angorewen and the burning of an entire street, so we hope that we can give a public explanation to all the victims of the disaster, as well as the soldiers, policemen, and government officials who arrived one after another, and hope that everyone will come and listen." ”

"Do partisans have anything to do with fire?" There was a buzz from the crowd.

Cassius exclaimed: "There are still many uncleared fires here, it is too dangerous, we will move to the small square over there to explain, and I hope that the mayor and councillors of the city, and all those who care about the safety of the city of Angore, will come and listen." ”

"I am the mayor of Angorivin, and we would love to see what the guerrillas will explain to us." An official who had just arrived said.

The police chief hurriedly introduced to the guerrillas: "This is the mayor of the city, Mr. Joseph Winterlaw, Mr. Mayor, this is the famous guerrilla Fudokin. ”

The mayor's eyes lit up and he took the initiative to shake hands with Kim: "On behalf of the people of this city, I would like to thank you for your support. ”

Kim was a little embarrassed and whispered: "That Mr. Cassius is the real celebrity among the guerrillas, and I am nothing at all." ”

"Oh!" The mayor's eyes lit up, and he went to shake Cassius' hand again.

Cassius watched as more and more people gathered over as an opportunity. He jumped up a step and said in a loud voice: "Please come here immediately, we have a lot to tell all parties about the truth about the fire and how to track down the murderers, especially the military." ”

The guerrillas looked at each other in bewilderment, not understanding what Cassius was paying attention to.

Cassius stood on a high place, but when he saw many soldiers on duty, he couldn't help but secretly move a few steps to this side, and those officers also followed, he couldn't help but show a smile, which was exactly what he wanted.

Seeing that the people had almost gathered, he began to speak in a loud voice: "Just tonight, there was a terrible deliberate arson in the local area, and this arson is suspected by the guerrilla association to be connected with one of our operations. Just yesterday evening, five guerrillas from the Kasley guerrilla branch received an important tip and came to Angori Wen. Soon after the guerrillas arrived, it was discovered that one of the guerrillas in the city had been secretly poisoned, and we sent him to the temple for treatment, and he has not been out of danger until now. Then, not long after, a terrible arson occurred in the city. ”

"We believe that these two things are connected, and it has to do with the purpose of our arrival. Both of these things were designed to hinder the guerrillas and free us from time to carry out our stated purpose. As we have seen, the purpose of the perpetrators has basically been achieved. ”

However, there are still many people who do not know who the perpetrators of this arson case are. I can tell you that they have been linked to a number of arsons, disappearances and abductions of children that have occurred in the Republic of Calvard in recent years. Citizens should also recall that in recent years, a number of people have gone missing from Angorivin. And now, we have some clues, these missing people, most likely hidden near Angoriwen, is why we are here. ”

"Is what he said true?" "I can't believe it." "The guerrillas must be sure to say that."

There was a lot of talk in the small square, and in the past few years, nearly 100 people have disappeared in Angorivin, which is a terrible thing for a city of just over 50,000 people.

"Then what are you waiting for, police and guerrillas, go get them back." Everyone shouted.

"The operation we came to the city, it was supposed to be a secret investigative operation, but the news was leaked, this fire, they deliberately set the fire in order to hinder our steps, you can see, the actions of the arsonists were premeditated, they used Molotov cocktails, from arson to the fire spread a whole street, it was only a few minutes, and now, there is still the smell of Molotov cocktails in the air." Cassius continued to speak loudly.

Nearby, many of the soldiers were attracted by Cassius's words, and Cassius noticed that the non-commissioned officer's expression was very stiff.

"Although our actions have been exposed, this cannot stop our determination to rescue the missing people, you can see that the police and soldiers are here, the mayor and the government officials are here, they are there, and there are no criminals who cannot be subdued. We implore the army and the police to form a joint operation team to rescue those who are missing. Cassius's words were sonorous and powerful.

The mayor stepped over excitedly, grabbed Cassius' hand and asked, "What you said is true?" ”

Cassius looked at these strange, uninformed officials in front of him, his eyes flashed with sincerity and persuasion: "The time of this operation is urgent, the criminals have already known about our arrival, if we are any later, they are likely to jump over the wall and kill those kidnapped people, for this reason, we implore all the armed forces who have come to the scene to take immediate action." ”

"Act now, act now." Citizens are shouting.

"Let's row our own boat and get our loved ones back!"

Cassius was pleased to see that the officers were no longer able to give the order to return to the camp smoothly, and the soldiers were waiting for instructions to attack.

In the shadows, several arsonists hidden in the crowd watched in amazement as events unfolded in a direction they never wanted to see.

Don't miss it, this is a great opportunity to make a name for yourself! The mayor said impassionedly: "I declare that I and the police chief Linde, as well as representatives of the army and the guerrilla association, will form an operational command group, and we need to gather all the armed forces of the city at once, some to defend our city, and most to arrest the murderers and rescue our relatives. ”

"Right now, right away!" The small town that had been burned down by a fire was really boiling at this time. Many turned home, took machetes and guns, rowed their own boats, and joined the combined army.
