Chapter 258, stealing beams and changing columns
"Hahaha - how is that possible? However, if I have to say why, it may be that I want to continue the mission that I have not had time to accomplish in this new era. β
"Mission?"
"Well, almost! It's like when I joined His Majesty's King's Army. Although my position at that time was only to guard the king's side, in the final analysis, we and those soldiers who were protecting this country and were fighting on the frontier had the same meaning. β
"We have only one goal, and that is to see this country prosper forever and forever. It's just that now, there is a different ruler. Although Rohm squinted his eyes and smiled, Rocket could still feel a touch of loneliness from it.
"What about you, why did you become a police officer?" RΓΆm looked at the rocket curiously.
"Hee-hee, of course it is...... Of course it's that, guarding justice! Rocket scratched the back of his raised head embarrassedly, looked up at the sky, and said shyly.
"Hah, justice? Haha, that's a very broad word. β
"Huh?"
RΓΆm sighed, lost in his own reflections on the past. "Rocket, I don't know what that justice you're talking about looks like. But I, from the Xihua Dynasty, to the current federal government. β
"Along the way, I have seen countless people who uphold righteousness but serve evil ways. Of course, there are also those who carry out justice all the way to the end, so what? Oh, by the way, it's called a partner of righteousness. β
"Which one do you believe in?" RΓΆhm paused for a moment, but before Rocket could reply, he continued.
"In fact, everyone is sticking to the kind of justice they believe in their hearts, but in different ways."
"Is it justice to punish evil and promote good? Is it justice to fight violence with violence? Is it justice to protect the weak? Your justice is too superficial. β
"What's wrong, Captain?" Rocket gradually noticed the change in Rom's tone.
"Well, speaking of which, Rocket, have you ever seen the abnormal side of this wonderful world?"
"Abnormal?" Rocket's mouth opened slightly, indicating surprise. "You mean superpowers?"
"Not exactly." Rohm exhaled softly, then said. "Since you have chosen to be a police officer, as long as you continue to deal with bounty hunters in the future, one day, you will see. This world, this government, ......"
RΓΆm left the rocket and slowly walked towards the bizarre high-rises. At the same time, his voice slowly faded away, becoming smaller and smaller in the blurred vision.
Gradually, the raindrops in the sky began to fall densely. On the ground, the ripples in the puddles began with one or two, and then became more and more anxious, until a vast mist rose a few centimeters high at his feet.
Retracting his thoughts, Rocket stared at the thin figure of the girl in the center of the screen.
"Captain...... Hah......" Rocket sighed.
"Actually, I don't know how I'm going to live. Since your incident, justice or something, I really don't qualify, alas! In the end, even the captain of the captain ended up like that, how dare I talk about justice? β
"But it's just a time like this." Rocket smiled self-deprecatingly. "What appeared in front of me, just like the one we met that day, was also a lonely and helpless superpower on Planet 24! Haha, hey, Rom, you say, is this some fate? Yes? These two girls, I rocketed to save! β
Endless cannonballs swept away from all directions towards the girl on the street, and the dense trajectory eventually converged on the only target on the ground. The bullets in the air, all of which were specially made AU weapons, were carefully prepared gifts for these superpowers.
The locomotive flies at high speed between the tall buildings, and Rocket and Rubber Kai are among them.
After a continuous artillery bombardment, the streets of Tiancheng City suddenly became potholes, and the figure of the superpowered girl also disappeared.
"Are there no bones?" A soldier turned on the detector, but did not notice the girl's presence. After waiting for a long time, after confirming that there was no enemy's life breath in this area, he immediately reported the situation here to his superiors.
On the locomotive of Rocket and Rubber Kai:
"Are you alright?" The rocket regained the driving privilege of the locomotive from the AI and smoothly drove the locomotive towards the outside of Tiancheng City. And Rocket's question was said to the two girls in the back.
"Why save me?" Yuzu's injuries were so serious that she didn't even have the strength to raise her head, so she lay down in her seat and said weakly. Yue was next to her, and the two girls were next to each other
"Team...... Captain? Rubber Kai stared in disbelief at the wave of operations that the rocket had just made, and he was dumbfounded. Are you harboring fugitives? This is, this is ......" Rubber Kai choked for a while, and he couldn't think of a crime that was too suitable for a rocket.
"Hehe, aren't they fugitives?" Rocket smiled absentmindedly. In the smile, there is relief, and there is also a joy after revenge. tower
"But they're bandits hunted by the army and the police, captain!"
"Xiao Kai, you will understand in the future. Believe me once, let's get out of here. β
"Oh? Oh! Then I'd like to hear what you have to explain later. β
Between the high-rise buildings, there are all kinds of locomotives, flying cars, and suspension motorboats flying back and forth. In fact, all of these are the troops of the superpowers who have been on this trip, and they come from many forces.
After the battle in this area was over, the soldiers finally went back to their respective homes and went to their own mothers. They dispersed and rushed to the city, where they could still faintly hear the fighting.
Rocket and Rubber Kai's locomotive also blended in, and silently moved through the various enclosures, towards the edge of the city.
Rubber Kai sat behind the driver's seat of the rocket, staring at Yuzu and Yue, two superpowered girls who were in poor condition, and was very puzzled. "Speaking of which, captain, how did you just get the two of them out of the eyes of so many people?"
"Humph! That's my secret skill! Want to learn? Take the apprenticeship. Rocket laughed.
"Hey, Rocket, what are you proud of? If the boss knows about it. I'm afraid neither of us can do it anymore. If you don't know, I'm going to eat with you in prison, you ...... Senior, it's a shame that you can still laugh now, I really admire you, ha! β
"Don't say that! Don't you feel like your previous life has been lacking in fun? What now? Is it exciting enough? Now, Kai? β
"Captain......" Rubber Kai sat in the back seat, and suddenly found that the rocket seemed to talk a lot more today. It's rare to see a captain like this! I'm a little skeptical that you're possessed by some strange spirit. β
"Captain...... Where are you going to take them both? Tiancheng City is now wrapped in the army. β
And when the rocket thought that it had deceived its peers, but a few drones hovering in the sky recorded everything that had just happened here.
A super-spacious intersection with several large armored vehicles parked on the ground, is where the SWAT commander's makeshift camp is located.
The officer at the head of the group, when he saw from the projection the wave of operations that the rocket had just fired and stole beams and columns, immediately smashed his fist on the armored car.
"Damn, that bastard Rocket, he fooled us with holograms. You're still trying to take those two women out from under my nose? Qingli, you now take two teams of people over and take them down. I will inform the nearby police and military to assist you. β
After a while, the two SWAT officers discovered the abnormalities around them.
"Hey, what to do, they seem to know that we are harboring fugitives." Rubber Kai saw the pursuers behind him from the screen next to him.
"Don't panic."
"Why don't you tell me not to panic at this time? Oh, yes, speaking of which, this matter actually has nothing to do with me at all, it was all done by you, captain, and I really shouldn't panic. Hahahaha, what am I panicking about? Afterwards, Eraser Kai actually laughed.
And the rocket on the side, while paying attention to the battle situation ahead, also nodded with a smile at the words of the subordinate behind him. "Mmmm, after all, Xiao Kai, you are just an accomplice!"
"Hey, Captain, what do you mean by that? You don't want to spew blood! Am I not an accomplice? I have nothing to do with it. It's all your fault, it's all your fault! β
"Well, that's right......" Rocket smiled meaningfully.
"By the way, Xiao Kai, I have a question for you."
"Huh? Don't talk to me. β
After all, this is the pride of this child! If Rubber Kai really didn't trust him, he would have put his gun on the head of the rocket a long time ago. But this incident did make Xiao Kai angry.
"Xiao Kai, you ...... Why did you come here to be a police officer? Rocket, with a normal heart, asked him curiously.
"I don't know." Rubber Kai immediately replied without thinking.
"Shy?"
"I didn't! I was just...... Just don't want to see anyone get hurt. At this point, Rubber Kai's voice became quieter, and he glanced at the two Yuzu next to him, and saw that the two seemed to be unconscious. Only then was he relieved, and said in a whisper. "I've told you before, about my past."
"Huh? Have it? Why I'm not impressed at all. Rocket looked dumbfounded, and then suddenly remembered. Oh, as if I'm drunk. β
"Humph!" Rubber Kai said angrily. "After all, you used to drink yourself unconscious in the tavern every day under the guise of office work."
