Chapter 5: Attacked
Yu Youzi, who was standing behind Lemore, listened to the discussion of the ministers and thought about two other things: it seems that as long as a person with a little IQ can detect the strangeness in the continuous sabotage incident, or the character behind the scenes is to make people aware of the strangeness, which makes people think of the Black Tribulation Society that has its own ideas and is being preached everywhere......
The compensation offered by Lemore for the destruction of the building by Paimigo was actually deducted from the salaries and funds of the guards of Willmüller, although I don't know how much budget was allocated to the guards, but it was definitely not enough to repair the house. And the ministers also take it for granted, it seems that there is no such concept of "state compensation" in this world. How do you think Paimigo's attack is another terrorist attack, and there is some compensation on Earth. Then again, even if there is a concept of compensation, it must not be available now, the airport is repaired, the civil war has not been resolved, and there are too many places where Karelian needs to use money now.
The cool breeze from the chiller kept the council hall cool, and the Minister of War and the Secretary of the Interior argued fiercely for several rounds about the level of IQ of the mastermind behind the scenes, but of course neither could convince anyone, and finally Lemore interrupted them.
"Indeed, it is not advisable to let people enter and leave the palace casually when the mastermind is not found. ”
The two ministers said no more.
Lemore looked sideways at Yu Youzi, who was standing in the back row, and said, "You just said that you fought with the snake man, how do you feel?"
Yu Youzi took a step forward: "It is full of explosive power, and it should be a dual cultivation of demon and martial arts, I don't know if all snake people are like this......"
Minister of War: "The snake people are a race whose warriors are both martial arts and magic, it depends on their physical structure, but they will always lean to one side, magic or martial arts...... The snake people who infiltrated the city this time should all be magical. ”
"How they got in must be traced. Lemore said very seriously, the Minister of War should be, write down the marshal's request.
The Speaker opened the next topic to the topic: "On the disposal of Paimigo's body." ”
The Chancellor of the Exchequer, who had not spoken, spoke up: "Paimigo's meat should be edible, right?"
The people in the council hall looked at each other for a while, and no one really thought about it, but after standing up, there was almost a huge beast the size of Duluo Tower, and how much flesh did it get.
The Minister of the Interior frowned and said, "No one would want to eat the flesh of such an unknown creature, right?"
Yu Youzi interjected: "I read an issue of the Explorer's Yearbook that said that Paimigo's meat is edible, but the meat is too old and has a bad taste...... Snake people don't eat Paimigo meat, but there are human adventurers who have tasted it......"
Minister of War: "There is no shortage of food in our kingdom. "The implication is that there is no need for this meat, just throw it away.
Speaker: "We can call in some airships and hoist these bodies out of the city and bury them." ”
Lemore nodded: "Hang it out, burn it before burying it, don't cause a plague." "The meat of Duluolou is so big, you have to dig a big pit to bury it, and if you let it rot, even if you bury it, it will cause an epidemic.
Chancellor of the Exchequer: "Paimigo's organs should be able to be used as magic materials, feet, chela, why don't you recruit some merchants and let them deal with them...... Paimigo was killed by our silver knights, and the ownership of the corpse is naturally ours, and we are not selling, but giving it to the merchants, who will surely gladly accept it. ”
Speaker: "Yes, set a time for the merchants, preferably within a day." ”
Home Secretary: "Just find a few more chambers of commerce, and I can contact you about this matter." ”
Lemore: "Let's do it." ”
After that, the issue of how the snake people entered the city and who was behind the scenes was discussed, and Yu Youzi stood in the back and listened quietly as he did when he first came to the council hall to participate in the regular meeting, and he still had no right to speak.
At this moment there was a sudden knock on the door of the council hall, interrupting the discussion of the people in the hall, and a liaison officer appeared at the door, and after saluting, he walked quickly to Lemore, handed a cloth bag to the marshal, and said, "The ...... found on the outer wall of a ruined Dullo building."
Lemore unfolded the white cloth bag, which turned out to be a strip of cloth wrapped in words written on it, and Lemore frowned when he saw the words on it.
Due to the angle, Yu Youzi, who was standing behind him, took a clear look at the strip of cloth - the emblem of the Black Tribulation Society, and the three major crimes accusing Hygilia.
Lemore asked the liaison officer to take down the strip of cloth and show it to the ministers present, and said, "It seems that this incident is the work of the Black Raiders again." ”
"They are indeed the ones behind the scenes!" said the Minister of War hatefully, and the ministers who were looking at the cloth bars began to discuss and nodded their heads in agreement. And Yu Youzi, who knew that there was still a traitor, thought that things were not so simple.
The meeting was held until the twentieth meeting in the afternoon, and from time to time the Wang family's advisers and liaison officers came in and out, and the preliminary work of the incident caused by the snake man was completed. At the end of the meeting, Lemore asked Yu Youzi about the murder of the Minister of Equipment, Bao, and the progress of the airport bombing, as everyone knows, the queen handed over this work to Winsmo and him, and now the Black Raiders have launched a second attack, and it is urgent to find them out.
Until Winsmo finds out the traitors in the ruling hierarchy who colluded with the Gang Raiders, there will be no substantial progress in the case...... Of course, this can't just be said, after all, the matter of the mole only stays at the stage of suspicion. On Winsmo's side, although Yu Youzi often visited his office, he had never seen him, and this Wang family detective should be searching all over the city, for example, he should be on the portal side today.
"Sorry, we haven't gotten any clues yet, but Winsmo has blocked the city roads and portals, and the Black Raiders won't be able to escape. ”
Lemore was obviously not satisfied with this answer, but nodded his head to indicate that he understood, and the meeting ended there. Lemore asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Secretary of State of the Interior to continue their meeting in a smaller conference room after dinner to discuss the matter of handing over Pamigo's body to the Chamber of Commerce, but none of this had anything to do with Yu Youzi.
Soon after Yu Youzi left, Tahi Yuan couldn't sit still at all, she had just seen such an exciting scene of Paimigo's attack, how could people calm down now, the books in the room couldn't read at all, she turned around, and finally put on the backpack on the bed and decided to go out.
The city of Carré is a busy urban area with a bustling commercial scene, many large markets, surrounded by ordinary residential buildings, and only a few blocks away from the Dulo Building. Due to the continuous events in the royal capital, the market was somewhat depressed, many shops were closed, and there were not many pedestrians, but the city guards came and went, and it seemed that there were more passers-by.
Tahi walked aimlessly on the stone slabs, passed a market and turned into it to see that it was nothing more than dried vegetables and fruits.
All the way through the market, there are rows of single-family buildings, if you take out four of these single-family buildings, it is a Duluo building, but the residents here obviously do not have the economic strength, just look at the house number, you can see that there are at least three families living in one building.
Skirting the street along the single-family building, you will see a row of shops and a rare Duluo building not far ahead. There were also hotels on the shop street, but in the end, I chose the one recommended by the Magic Carriage Master.
Tahiya took a closer look at each of these shops, because she also had such a shopping street in her amusement park. The difference is not only in the goods sold, the shops in the amusement park are all one-story small rooms, while here are small buildings with two or three floors, which should be the same as those in the city of Cassuda, with shops on the first floor and home accommodation or hotels on the upper floors.
As he walked and watched, he suddenly rushed towards him from a shop, all with fierce expressions and pistols in their hands.
"Get out of the way!" one of them shouted at Tahi, who was still standing.
There was a bang behind him, startling the stunned Tahi again.
It turned out that the gate of Duluo Building on the opposite side exploded, and an old man in black jumped into the street, and it happened to be Tahi Yuan in front of him.
Tahi felt a pull behind her, and when she came back to her senses, she had fallen into the hands of the old man in black. Because the old man in black was lying on his back, he was one head shorter than Tahidi, and he could only clasp Tahijin with one hand and put a sword on Tahidi's waist with the other.
Only then did Tahi react and raise her level strength, and with one hand she pulled the hand on her shoulder, and at the same time pushed forward with the force of her feet.
The old man in black was able to pull her back, and with the force of his hand, he pushed her to the opposite side with the force of Tahi's kick, and at the same time stabbed her in the back of the heart with a sword. The gang of three or four people who rushed out of the store were immediately smashed by Tahi who flew towards them.
But the windows on the second and third floors of the shop suddenly opened, and several city guards with light guns came out, and they aimed at the old man in black at the moment.
The old man in black obviously had a good level, he moved and dodged, dodged the slender pillar of light, and blocked it with a sword if he couldn't dodge, but this series of dodges came down, and he unconsciously retreated to the gate of Duluo Building.
The group of people who were knocked down by Tahi Yuan stood firm, raised their arms, and the stone crystal on the gloves pointed directly at the old man in black, and more people came out of the shop next to them, and they were either pistols or light guns in their hands, all pointing directly at the old man in black, and surrounded him at the gate.
And from the door, a group of city guards with light guns also poured out, joining the encirclement to block the retreat of the old man in black, they were wearing neat uniforms, it seems that the people pouring out of the shop should be city guards in civilian clothes.
"Give up the resistance, I can't get anything out of you, right? Suddenly there was a voice from inside the shop, Tahi Yuan sounded a little familiar, stood up and looked back, only to see that it was the male official who told him in the morning where Yu Youzi was. He came down from the second floor of the shop.
"Ahh......h
"Oh, isn't this the girl who came to us in the morning to find something to do with our otherworldly boys?" Winsmore beckoned, "Are you alright? I saw you stabbed just now...... Something fell out of the back, isn't it money?"
After he reminded him of this, Tahiya felt a push on his shoulder before, and there was a violent impact on his back, so he hurriedly unloaded his backpack, only to see that a gap had been pierced on it, and there were a few gold coins dangling there. The old man in black had a sword that was killed, trying to pierce the backpack and penetrate her heart directly, but it was blocked by the compacted Liver's money bag placed in the inner layer of the backpack, and the 172 gold coins saved the girl's life.
Although 172 pieces may seem like a lot, they are about the size of a fist when put together in a money bag. But correspondingly, this lump of metal becomes quite thick when it is entangled together......
However, now there are obviously no 172 pieces, and there must have been gold coins that have fallen out, Tahiya was shocked, hugged her backpack, ignored Winsmo and the old man in black, and jumped up and circled around the ground looking for Liverlai who had fallen out.
Seeing the girl in the cuifu jumping around, it can be regarded as an explanation to Yu Youzi, Wen Simo smiled and ignored Ta Xiyuan, walked into the encirclement and looked at the old man in black, and said sarcastically: "You wanted to kill that girl just now...... Why don't you kill yourself, don't you Black Tribulation Society like death the most, or do you want to surrender to us...... What do you say about that phrase, eternal night?"
"The night is endless. The old man in black opened and closed his withered vine-like lips up and down, "Ignorant people, the only real thing in this world is death. ”
The corners of Winsmo's mouth curled: "You're right, for you, you're already dead...... Are you willing to tell us anything before you die, as your last words? ”
The old man's bark-like cheeks stretched out, and he looked very happy: "We just want to lead more people to understand the truth of the world! Don't you want to know the truth!! " actually shouted loudly in a tone of pity, as if he wanted to vent all the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time, and felt grieved by the obsession of the people of the world.
The city guards surrounding him looked at each other, and all the shops on this street closed their doors and windows one after another after the old man in black came out, and the shouts of the old man in black echoed in the streets that seemed to have become lonely.
"Accept the night!! the old man in black shouted, and he raised all his strength and rushed towards Winsmer.
For the people of the Black Tribulation Society, Wen Simo, who has reviewed the literature in detail in the past few days, has never thought that he can catch the live mouth, and even if he catches the live mouth, he doesn't expect to be able to ask anything from the mouths of these people with extreme thoughts. The old man in black is obviously a diehard loyalist, they don't care about their own lives, death is a kind of return for him, a return to his own concept and heart, it is an extremely happy thing, and the reason why he is still in the world is just to bring this happiness to more living people - simply put, it is to insert a sword into the heart of every living person.
"Shoot!" As soon as the old man in black moved, Winsmo gave the order without hesitation.
