"Captain Chen, welcome."

As soon as Chen Xing stepped into the coffee shop, the boss greeted him from the bar, his face full of flattering smiles. This is the territory of the third squad, and all the taxes are in his hands. In the face of managers, the boss naturally greets him with a smile.

"A cup of hot cocoa." Chen Xing said, and then glanced around seemingly casually, "Business is good." ”

"It's all thanks to you." The boss shook his hands and said politely.

With just one glance, Chen Xing discovered his target. In the corner of the store, by the window, a tall and thin man in a black travel robe was eating dinner in an orderly manner. When you look closely, the man's hands are wrapped in bandages, which exactly matches the description of the vendors.

The only difference was that the man took off his mask. In the dim candlelight, the face is covered with criss-crossing scars.

In order not to arouse the vigilance of the target, Chen Xing quickly withdrew his gaze. After waiting in front of the bar for a while, the boss made hot cocoa and handed it over, "Captain Chen, you ordered it." ”

"Hmm." Chen Xing nodded, didn't pay the bill, took it and left.

"Captain Chen, you go slowly." The boss greeted from behind.

Out of the coffee shop, Chen Xing walked quickly to the parking place, asked Xiao Yang to go back and bring people over, and he stayed to monitor and prevent the target from leaving.

Half an hour later, Chen Xing successfully waited for Ye Yang Bailiu and Aaron and the others. After surrounding the coffee shop, he walked straight to the man in black in the corner and sat down across from him.

"Friend, can you have a few words?" Chen Xing tapped his fingers on the table and asked. On the surface, it seems to be calm, but the hand under the table is holding a loaded Black Star hand/gun.

At first, the man in black was a little stunned, but soon regained his indifferent expression, put his hands on the table, and made a "please" gesture.

"So, let me introduce myself first......" Chen Xing paused and said in a deep voice, "I am Chen Xing, the leader of the third squad of the Orchid Town Garrison, the sheriff of the coastal community, what do you call you?" ”

"My name is Quake, and I'm a Revenant." The man said calmly, his eyes flickering with the glimmer of candle flames.

As soon as the words fell, a title involuntarily appeared in Chen Xing's mind, and then blurted out, "Wilderness Lone Ranger, Red Wolf Quake!" ”

"You know me?" Quake visibly froze, as if surprised.

"I've heard of it." Chen Xing said lightly, but his heart was fluctuating.

It is unimaginable that the famous knight in the northern wilderness is a murderer.

In his previous life, Chen Xing had heard of this man, who walked on the edge of the human-controlled area all year round, and was famous for his sympathy and help for the homeless. The homeless people called him the "Red Wolf", which means "the wolf with a red heart", and the citizens called him the "Red Dog", mocking him for "meddling with rats".

According to rumors, Quake's strength is not strong, he has not reached the town guard level for his life, and his reputation is not very big, mainly in the vicinity of Dragonstone Town and the fringe towns under its jurisdiction.

And what made him truly famous was an important historical event - the shattering of the dawn. This incident, in the official archives of the United Kingdom of Ambergris, is known as the "Great Northern Purge".

Quake was a key member of the outcastic rebel group Dawn Dawn, and was finally hanged in King's Square in Ice City. At the same time, it is also the only death penalty in the United Kingdom in nearly 100 years.

"Mr. Quake......" Chen Xing subconsciously used honorifics, not to mention whether the other party's pursuit was correct, just by virtue of the generous determination to die, he could already be called a "hero".

"There's something I want to confirm with you." Chen Xing said in a calm tone, trying to eliminate the unfriendliness in the wording as much as possible.

"Please." Quake said with a slight smile. Although the scarred face looked a little hideous, the atmosphere eased a lot and was not as tense as before.

"This morning, you were seen selling a mid-level radiation protective suit made by the Red Lizard Company in the back alley." Chen Xing looked into the other party's eyes, "Is there such a thing?" ”

"That's right." Quake replied, without hesitation.

"Can you tell me where you came?" Chen Xing asked again.

"That's my trophies, plus two mineral scanners and a few little things." Quake said bluntly.

"This ......" Chen Xing frowned, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that the miner captain was really killed by the other party?

"Mr. Quake, have you ever done anything unethical?" Chen Xing asked tentatively. If it were possible, he really didn't want to be an enemy of a legendary hero.

"Nope." Quake replied without thinking.

"Can you explain, then, the homicide in Building 27 in the coastal community?" Chen Xing continued to ask.

"I'm seeking justice for an otherwise happy family." Quake said calmly.

"Mr. Quake, can I understand that you admit that you killed a citizen of the Red Dragon Principality?" Chen Xing said with some disappointment.

"So to speak." Quake said.

"Can you tell us why?" Chen Xing sighed, his voice full of regret.

"Can you treat me to a drink before you arrest me?" Quake hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice.

"Boss, two glasses of ale!" Chen Xing turned his head and shouted at the boss in the bar. Although it is a café, it also serves a small amount of alcohol.

After a while, the boss brought two large glasses of ale. Quake drank as he told Chen Xing what had happened.

Half a year ago, the mining team of Sinclair Mining in the town of Orchid went to the northern edge to prospect for minerals. Stop there as you pass through a tribe of displaced people deep in the wilderness. The outcast tribe was very simple and hospitable.

However, Andrew, the captain of the mining team, took a fancy to a pair of homeless mothers and daughters, and instigated the accompanying mercenaries to kill their families and take possession of them in a tent splattered with blood.

After some time, Quaker, who was traveling alone, passed by the tribe. The mother and daughter pleaded with him to get justice for them, and then committed suicide.

"And so I'm here......" Quake looked up and drank the wine from his glass.

"Mr. Quake, displaced people are not protected by the law." Although the story is sad, Chen Xing still reminded him. Even if he knew, the other party would not change his original intention.

On the Red Earth, and in the world at large, homeless people are treated as livestock.

"People who don't respect the rules shouldn't be protected by the rules."

"People who lose credibility should not be accepted by the credibility society."

These two points are the core policies of the Human Survival Committee on the "dishonest" and the "criminal". Because after the cataclysm, the living environment of human beings has become very harsh, not only to fight against natural disasters and diseases, but also to fight against residual radiation, countless mutated creatures, heterotopic creatures, and evil beings hidden in the void.

The danger of perdition is ever-present, like a sword hanging over the head. Once there is a problem in the allocation of resources, humanity will be in a situation from which it will never recover.

However, regardless of the ideology, there are its shortcomings and strengths, as well as dark corners that she cannot take care of.

The untrustworthy and the criminal are hateful, but in this world, there are still many kind and simple homeless tribes. They live on the fringes of human-controlled areas and live simple and primitive lives. Men and women weave, slash-and-burn, hunt and fish, and domesticate livestock. The sun rises and the sun sets. Although the surrounding environment is full of dangers and life is difficult and difficult, there is no dispute with the world and self-satisfaction.

"I ......" Quake looked out the window at the night sky, silent for a few moments, before nodding and saying, "I know......"

The hoarse voice was full of helplessness.

"I'm sorry, you have to come with me." Chen Xing put away all his emotions and said seriously and seriously. At this moment, he is the enforcer of Orchid Town, no matter who the other party is.

Because only by keeping his position can he have the future he wants. He was a man in three lives, and he knew one sentence best: "Ideals cannot be eaten as food." ”

He was just a small person, and in his last life, he was slapped to death like a fly by the Great Demon of the Abyss. These "kingdom events" are not his turn to think about. How to keep his one-third of an acre of land and develop steadily is his primary goal now.

Unless one day, he becomes a big man and has the ability to change the world.

But he thinks that for the human environment, he may still stick to the set of rules set by the Human Survival Committee, because no rule is perfect.

He saw very clearly that everything, in the final analysis, was because of this cruel world......
