Chapter 65: The Vanishing Corpse (2)

Early the next morning, just after dawn, the colonel was woken up by the explosion.

He didn't understand why the safe zone was under martial law overnight, and Omega sent an email bombardment telling him that the academy was no longer safe, and that the travel of all survivors would be protected and restricted, and the old man was stunned, and the world was peaceful yesterday, so why did it end the world when he woke up?

Except for the Colonel, Abel and everyone else were notified, and the survivors were told that the safe zone was under martial law and that they should not go out without necessary reasons, and that the members of the Enforcement Department were armed with guns and patrolled the corridors of the main building and the academy as if they were facing a great enemy.

The colonel stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, opened the curtains, and saw that the college was deserted and devoid of pedestrians at his feet.

In addition to the high-level of the academy, only the head of the executive department has the authority to order Omega martial law, so this matter is obviously done by Lu Xun.

"Is there martial law?"

"Yes." Omega replied, "Because there are grave robbers again." โ€

"Another grave has been dug up?" The colonel asked.

"Yes, at about half past two this morning, Mr. Lu Xun and the heavy artillery found that the stolen grave belonged to Howard Hughes." Omega called up the deceased's personal information, "Born in 2001, died in 2045, former member of the executive department. โ€

"Howard Hughes......" Colonel pinched his eyebrows, carefully recalling this old subordinate, Howard Hughes and Edward Haytham were both members of the same group of executive departments, and they died in the early days of the establishment of the security zone, and the colonel couldn't remember exactly which mission, he only remembered that the old group of people in the executive department died one after another, and the death reports of those dead were still in his hands.

"Princess, what is Lu Xun doing now?" Sean asked again.

"Mr. Lu Xun is coordinating the work of the executive department to strengthen the safety and security work." Omega replied, "Because the identity of the tomb robber is still unclear, he does not advise anyone to go out at will at this time to avoid being attacked." โ€

Abraham pushed open the office door, "Old man! How is this going on? โ€

Sean turned his head, the middle-aged man was still wearing blue pajamas, revealing his hairy chest, his hair was unkempt, and his eyes were sleepy, "I got up early in the morning and was blocked by the people from the executive department!" They also forbade me to go out, saying that if I had an accident, they would not be able to guarantee my safety...... Is this a rebellion by the Executive Department? Mutiny? โ€

The colonel raised his eyebrows and reminded faintly, "Clothes." โ€

Abraham glanced down at his open placket, the belt of his dressing gown had been loosened at some point, his chest was wide open, and two hairy calves were exposed under the hem of his robe, and he now looked like an ancient Roman, who had just come out of his house and was on his way to the bathhouse.

The middle-aged man covered his clothes, "No wonder I just felt that I was walking with the wind, and my ass was cold and swishing...... Man, what are you doing here? Don't go out and preside over the big picture? Could it be that you are also restricted in your personal freedom? I'll just say that you can't hand over all the military power, old thing, and now become the commander of the light pole, right? โ€

Sean turned and sat down on the couch, poured two glasses of water, and pushed one to Abraham.

"The situation is much worse than the Mutiny of the Executive Department."

The middle-aged man was taken aback, "Isn't it more than a mutiny?" Is the Executive Department going to be a dictatorship? Do you want to make the safe zone a cave? Are we all going to be slaves? โ€

Sean ignored him, "The second grave was stolen and dug up. โ€

Abel was stunned, picked up the water on the table and poured it, and then slapped his thigh, "Scared me, I thought it was a big deal, isn't it just that an old grave has been dug up, and there are no casualties, and the executive department has not rebelled, why are you so serious?" โ€

Sean frowned, doubting for the first time the IQ level of his old partner.

The middle-aged man put his mind at ease, raised the glass in his hand, and looked around.

"No wine." said the colonel.

The middle-aged man was a little disappointed, he added half a glass of boiled water to himself, and then sat lazily on the sofa, "It's just an old grave, what are you worried about?" Old dude...... We've survived so many winds and waves, and the Night King's awesome characters can't beat us, one or two grave-digging thieves, can we still be afraid of them? โ€

The colonel crossed his hands and did not express his opinion, not knowing what he was thinking.

"I said you just get older and more cowardly." Abel commented, "When you were young, you led the company's executive department, but what were you afraid of? You're the only human in the world to single-handedly kill a Marauder, and if that were a record in ancient times, we'd have to give you a title like Monster Slayer Shaun or something. โ€

"It's not about guts." Sean shook his head, "When I'm alone, I dare to go head-to-head with the Marauders, but if there are other people present at the time, then I have to think about how to retreat...... You have to be careful when you are responsible for any of your actions. โ€

"I know." Abraham raised his head and drank the water from the glass, and with a gesture of drinking in a big gulp, he paused the empty glass on the coffee table, "I'm also a very cautious person, don't you see I'm coming for you...... Tell me, old man, what do you think of this grave robber? โ€

Lemon has also been notified by Omega that the security zone has entered a state of full martial law, and entering martial law indicates that there is a problem with the security situation in the academy, either an infected person has invaded, or there have been casualties.

Under normal circumstances, the Colonel would have gone to a meeting with the Hummingbird team after the security zone was locked, but Lemon waited until now and received no notice from the Colonel, which was a bit of a surprise to her. For this reason, Lemon specifically contacted Omega, and Omega's reply was "Miss Lemon has no duty duty this morning, you can stay indoors to rest, and if there are other tasks, the colonel will notify you in time".

So she just sat in the room and waited.

Lemon sat on the floor, hugging her knees, with a long knife, dagger and pistol on her left and a radio headset on her right.

This is her full set of belongings, if the next second the colonel's notice arrives, she can immediately put on her headphones, plug in the dagger and pistol, and go out with a long knife in hand, she has always been so neat and neat, always ready to go out. Before going out, she would tidy up the room, the quilt and sheets were neatly folded in squares at the head of the bed, and the water glasses, picture frames and books on the table were lined up against the wall.

Because she doesn't know when she goes out, she won't be able to come back, so every time she goes out, it is considered the last time, and in case she can't come back, then this room can be left for someone else.
