The arrival of Lucas made Alice, Nick and others present fall silent, and everyone was full of suspicion about Lucas, but because there was no conclusive evidence to face each other with his former comrades, it was difficult for everyone to do it for a while.

The atmosphere in the restaurant seemed to freeze because of Lucas's arrival, and Lucas also sensed this strange atmosphere.

"What's wrong?" Lucas asked tentatively after taking a real look at everyone's expressions.

"The secret passage has been destroyed, do you know who did it?" Nick was the first to ask.

"I did it!" Lucas touched his bald head and said calmly, "Not long after you entered the dark passage, the headquarters was attacked by the black knights, and the situation was urgent, in order to prevent the black knights from discovering the dark passage, and attacking you from behind along the dark passage, Zoro asked me to blow up the dark passage."

"Sure enough, the headquarters was attacked," Bill said angrily.

"What about Mr. Zoro?" Nick asked, he didn't care what happened to the headquarters, what he cared about was Zoro, and if Sauron was safe, the headquarters would be where the brains of the Revolutionary Army were.

"Mr. Sauron was sacrificed," Lucas said sadly, "to cover me, besieged by the Black Knights"

"......" Although everyone had the worst in their hearts, everyone couldn't help but feel sad when they heard Lucas's confirmation.

"How did you get here?" Alice asked.

"I've come from the transit area after a lot of twists and turns," Lucas said truthfully, "Alice, you seem hostile to me."

"There are more than thirty of us in total, and now there are only seven of us left, if it weren't for the traitor leak, we wouldn't have been ambushed by the guards here" Nick's hand was already slowly touching his waist.

"In order to besiege us, the A7 District Administration has dispatched a large number of guards and mechanical police, and even Sean's Revolutionary Army branch has been devastated," Bill said in a deep voice, "Who do you think is a traitor?" ”

"If I were a traitor, I would have surrounded this place with guards and mechanical police!" Lucas sneered.

The waiter in the restaurant immediately walked to the window, leaned against the curtain and looked out of the window, and after finding that there was nothing unusual, he shook his head at Alice and the others.

After seeing the waiter shaking his head, Alice and the others also relaxed a little.

"I'm here to join you and assist you in completing Your Excellency's mission," Lucas slowly walked over to Alice and sat down, "If you have to be suspicious, isn't Charles the most suspicious?" ”

"In order to become the leader of the revolutionary army, he will reveal the location of the headquarters to the administrative bureau and exclude dissidents, won't he do such a thing?" Lucas shrugged.

"How did Charles know we were in A7?" Nick asked, shaking his head.

"With Charles's power, won't you plant an eyeliner or two at the headquarters?" Lucas

explained.

What Lucas said is not impossible, Charles is indeed a careerist, who has coveted the position of leader for a long time, and makes this trick of killing people with a knife to exclude dissidents.

Among the six commanders of the revolutionary army, only Charles is the strongest, and he can do it by relying on his influence to install one or two eyeliners in the headquarters.

"Charles, the traitor, must be eliminated and avenge Mr. Sauron and his dead brothers!" Bill's fan-sized hand slapped the table in annoyance.

Alice looked at Nick, and Nick happened to look at Alice, and both of them saw a trace of unwavering suspicion in each other's eyes.

In the entire revolutionary army, Alice, Nick, Lucas, and Bill are all middle-level cadres who are the mainstays, and Zoro also intends to train the four, but Bill is straightforward and simple by nature, and Lucas has a gloomy personality, only Alice and Nick have won Sauron's heart.

With the resourcefulness of the two, they will not easily doubt a person, but they will never easily give up their doubts on a person who is full of doubts.

But before there is conclusive evidence, the two naturally will not attack Lucas, after all, the revolutionary army is weak, and the loss of any cadre is a huge blow to the revolutionary army.

"Revenge aside, the most important thing now is the top-secret information in the hands of His Excellency Zhan Ji" Nick glanced at Alice deeply, "What does Your Excellency Zhan Ji command?" ”

"The task here has been completed, Your Excellency Zhan Ji has already gotten what you want, what to do next is to wait for her arrangement" Alice stood up and said to everyone, "You guys can rest here for the time being, I need to communicate with Your Excellency Zhan Ji about the next plan"

With that, Alice walked towards the door.

"We'll be waiting for you here, stay safe on your way," Nick reminded.

Alice walked out of the dining room and did not go straight to the apartment, but into a dark alleyway.

She always keeps an eye out for anyone following behind her, and her years of experience in counter-tracking have taught her how to spot the tail behind her or avoid the enemy's gaze.

After going around the alleyway a few times, and not finding the tail, he walked towards the apartment.

Alice, who returned to the apartment, happened to see Hongchen Zhanji feeding Fangweis, Hongchen Zhanji's left ankle had been repaired, and Fangvis was also awake, but he was still a little weak.

She told Red Dust and Fang Wei about finding Nick Bill and the others, as well as the sacrifice of Sauron at the headquarters and her suspicion of Lucas, but Red Dust didn't react, as if these things had nothing to do with him.

But Fang Weisi looked at her in disbelief, the sacrifice of Sauron at the headquarters, and the loss of many brothers and comrades in the revolutionary army made Fang Weisi's emotions unable to calm down for a long time.

"You're still very weak, and it's not easy to have big fluctuations in your mood," Hongchen Zhanji held down

Fang Weisi said from his shoulder.

"Something so big happened, how can I treat it calmly!" Fang Weisi said angrily, although he joined the revolutionary army not long ago, everyone usually treats him well, Zoro is even more kind to him, and Tang Xiaoqian not only healed himself, but also cured his terminal illness.

Fang Weisi has not been an indifferent person since he was a child, although he has not enjoyed any family affection, but who is good to him, he knows in his heart, he has found a feeling of home in the revolutionary army, although this feeling will not be said, but he has always kept it firmly in his heart.

There is no mercy in this place in the civilian area, there is no kindness, there is only the desire to survive and the law of the jungle, although the environment in which he grew up is so cold, but warmth has always been his heart's yearning.

He has been strong for so many years, even when he was abused by Alice and Bill to the point that life is worse than death, he will not shed a single tear, but in just one or two days, he has burst into tears again.

The death of Aunt Sophia and the death of Zoro made the self-proclaimed strong Fangweis cry red-eyed.

"A big man cries like this," Alice slammed into her feet and walked towards the living room, no one saw that the moment she got up, a drop of crystal fell on the bed and then disappeared.

Alice's eyes were moist, and the long-suppressed depression had not broken the embankment the moment she learned of Zoro's death, but the moment Francis cried bitterly, her tears welled up uncontrollably.

"When you are alone in the future, you must learn to be strong" Zoro's words seemed to be in his ears.

Twenty-five years ago, Alice's father burst into the house and shouted "Alice!" Alice! ”

The father searched all over the house but couldn't find Alice, "Stop playing, come out quickly!" ”

Finally, the father found Alice in the closet, who thought she was playing with a hidden cat, and 7-year-old Alice saw her father so panicked for the first time.

"Alice!" The father took Alice out of the closet and said eagerly, "No matter what happens for a while, don't make a sound!" ”

Alice still looked at her father blankly, is this a new game? Why is my father so vicious?

"Look at Daddy" The father tried to calm down his emotions in front of his daughter, "Alice is obedient, don't make a noise for a while!" Did You Know? ”

Alice looked at her father like this, maybe today's game was different from before, and her father hugged herself hard and stuffed herself under the bed, burying herself in the innermost part with some miscellaneous items.

At this moment, the door of the house suddenly broke open, many people broke in, and the sound of gunshots and screams rang in Alice's ears.

She was frightened, her eyes widened, not knowing what was going on outside.

"Ahh

However, he was in severe pain.

"I'll just ask you a question, and I won't kill you if you say it!" A deep voice said, "Where is your stronghold in the Garden of Eden!" ”

"I don't know!" The father's voice was bitter and firm.

"Bang" was another gunshot, and the father cried out in pain "I really don't know!" ”

The "bang" shot rang out, and the father stopped wailing and fell heavily to the floor.

Alice happened to see her father's bloody face through a crack, and his father's eyes widened with horror and relief.

Perhaps it was the father who saw Alice hidden under the bed, and his distorted expression was no longer hideous, no longer frightened, and he stopped breathing with a hint of smile and reassurance.

Alice covered her mouth and looked at her father, who stopped breathing but still looked at her, the footsteps outside gradually faded away, but Alice still didn't move, still didn't make any sound.

The silence in the room seemed to freeze time at this moment, and Alice just looked at her father motionlessly in front of her, and he still remembered the last words that his father said to himself, "Don't make a sound, can't move!" ”

I don't know how long it took, a slight footstep walked in, and the footsteps came to my father's side, and slowly brushed my father's eyes away with my hand, and my father finally closed his eyes.

Alice mustered up the courage to reach out her young little hand and touch her father's face, and just as she was about to touch his father's cheek, a thick, warm hand grasped her wrist.

The middle-aged uncle took Alice to a restaurant and ordered her a glass of milk and a fluffy cake, she didn't know who this middle-aged uncle in front of her was, but she heard the people around her call him Mr. Zoro.

"You'll live here from now on, and this will be your home," Zoro said with a kind look at Alice.

Alice didn't speak, just gulped down the cake and drank the milk.

"This is Sophia, she will take care of you," Zoro said, pointing to a young and beautiful woman beside him.

Alice looked at the woman named Sophia, a woman with a bewitching figure, the most beautiful of all the aunts Alice knew, certainly worse than her own mother.

Sophia looked at herself curiously with her big watery eyes, "Hello, little Alice"

Zoro got up, came to Alice's side, squatted down, brushed away the tears from the corners of Alice's eyes, touched Alice's head, and said lovingly, "In the future, you will be alone, you must learn to be strong", and then turned and left.

Alice turned her head to look at Zoro's fading back, and at this moment the 7-year-old Alice suddenly understood something, and since then, the word strong has penetrated into Alice's bone marrow.
