A week after the Battle of Kuroki Pass.

Huang Zheng lay on a bed in Suero's temporary hospital, staring out the window in a daze. This house in the inner city, originally the house of a viscount, was now requisitioned by the government to house many wounded soldiers.

Because of the tight room, Huang Zheng shared a ward with three other people, and his injuries were the least severe of the three patients, and one of his patients had his leg broken by vindictiveness, and finally had to amputate his entire thigh. The other was hit in the head by psychic magic and lay unconscious for a week. Twilight sneaked into his consciousness twice, but failed to pull him back, and it looked like he was less lucky.

Huang Zheng turned his head to see that his patient Song Pingtao was practicing walking in his room with a newly made cane. Human beings are actually very strong many times, and this big boy cried all night when he knew that he was going to lose a leg, but now he mustered up the courage to challenge his body.

Seeing Huang Zheng looking over, Song Pingtao said, "Huang Zheng, you said this is a magical world, I can always find a way to get my legs back, right?"

"Exactly the same as the original?" asked Huang Zheng.

"What do you mean by the original one?" Song Pingtao said puzzled.

Huang Zheng said: "I have thought about this problem in the past two days. It's how to repair a part of a limb. Huang Zheng crossed his hands behind his head and said, "You can't do it with healing magic alone. All I can think of is using the Golem technique to make you a metal leg, or asking the elves to get the sap of the World Tree, just like Xiao Chen did for Luo Ling. Also, you can consider becoming my spiritual attendant and give up this body completely, so that when I help you project your body, you will have a healthy body. ”

"Are you kidding my legs, making me give up my body?"

"No, I don't have the heart to joke at all these days. Huang Zheng's face was very calm, "I'm just imagining all kinds of possibilities. The golem's legs, our skills are certainly not yet at the point of control. World Tree ...... Hehe, Xiao Chen was a gift that he only got after saving the entire elf and dark elf clan, so in the final analysis, becoming a spirit servant is the quickest way to want a sound body. You must know that there are more than 40 people who have chosen to become the spiritual servants of our mages this time. ”

"Forget it, when I didn't say it. I still have a leg and a pair of hands, and I'd rather live in this world by myself. ”

"Wise choice. Huang Zheng said, "I'm just showing the possibilities." ”

There was a knock on the door outside the room, and then the door was opened from the outside. Song Pingtao glanced at the door and was taken aback, the person who came was actually Wang Jiyuan.

"Commander!"

"How is Xiao Song recovering?"

"Good! I'm recovering well! You must give me a chance to fight the Imperials and avenge my fallen brothers. ”

"Don't worry. We will not spare the Imperials in vain. Now I have something to talk to Xiao Huang about, is it inconvenient for you to go out for a walk?" Wang Jiyuan said, "Let me ask the guards to help you?"

"No, I don't. I can do it myself. Song Pingtao walked out of the room with a cane.

Wang Jiyuan walked up to Huang Zheng's hospital bed and asked, "You asked someone to bring me a message, saying that you have something very important to report to me?" The past two days have been relatively busy, and we have to guard against the Imperial people coming to attack Suero and the surrounding towns, and we have been engaged in the defense of the city, and now we have time to come, you can say it." ”

Huang Zheng said: "There is something to report, but I must state in advance that this matter is just a guess." ”

"Say it. I will have my own judgment. Wang Ji said from afar.

"I don't know if your side or the committee has any investigation results into the breach of Heimu Pass?" Huang Zheng asked first.

Wang Jiyuan said: "The scene was very chaotic that day, how did it happen, there is no unified statement now, but one thing is certain, someone opened the door from the inside." The door was opened by an Imperial infiltration force, but we can't be sure how they got in or how they managed to get through the door without anyone noticing. ”

Huang Zheng nodded, and took out a piece of paper from the side, on which was drawn a map of Heimu Pass, with many symbols marked on it, and dense annotations were written, there was time and personnel. "The next thing is exactly what I'm going to say," he said. You see, at that time, Shi Hao and I arranged the sentry post and patrol team of Heimu Pass together after referring to Olgas's opinion. I've been pondering this diagram for the past two days, and I've found that no matter how the enemy sneaks into Blackwood Pass, as long as magic is involved, magic fluctuations will be detected, unless they find these blind spots. ”

Huang Zheng drew three circles on the map, indicating that the detection of places that might not be covered by magic.

"But these places are not discoverable to outsiders, not even those from Olgas. Because the defense of the pass that Shi Hao and I rearranged was completely different from when Olgas was managing Kuroki Pass. Moreover, most of his men were in the recruit camp and some outposts, and they did not have the opportunity to run around in the Blackwood Pass. The only people who can find these nodes at Kuroki Pass are probably our own people. ”

"You're suspecting that the Guards are traitors!" Wang Jiyuan said.

Huang Zheng did not answer this question directly: "And there are still a few clues, first, ordinary soldiers have no chance to explore these places everywhere. In those days, the situation on the side of Kurokiguan was tense, and the internal management was very strict. Second, because these three places are dead ends, there are patrols around, and if ordinary soldiers appear in such places, they will definitely be carefully interrogated by the patrols, but now there is no patrol warning in advance, indicating that this person's level is enough for the patrol to relax their vigilance. ”

Wang Jiyuan said: "Maybe it was a sudden attack by the enemy, and the patrol team didn't have time to react?"

"Our requirements for the patrol team are to maintain a high level of vigilance and to warn of any abnormalities as soon as they are detected. Each patrol also has fighters who are quick to react and can use vindictiveness, if ...... Without the distractions of familiar people, it's hard for me to imagine that they wouldn't even be able to report the news. Huang Zheng said.

Wang Jiyuan pondered for a while and said, "There aren't many people in your frame." Looks like you have a clear goal?"

"No, there is no direct evidence yet. Huang Zheng said: "But at present, my number one suspect is Zhang Hong. ”

"He?" Wang Ji said from afar, "I thought you would be the first to suspect the local-turned-escort officers. Zhang Hong played a very important role in this retreat, and many people were able to evacuate safely thanks to his organization. If you talk about it, you're going to get into a hornet's nest. ”

"I understand, not to mention that I can't give evidence now, and this matter needs to be investigated. We'd better not startle the snake just yet. ”

"I heard that Montenegro will send an investigation team to investigate the incident at Heimu Pass, as well as the relevant responsible persons. ”

"You want me to work with them?" asked Huang Zheng.

Wang Jiyuan showed a smile and said, "No, I want you to do it alone, someone will cover for you, isn't that just right?"
