Chapter 68: Mission
The bread on the stainless steel plate was directly reduced by half, and the soup in the porcelain plate was not less, but the original cloudy potato soup was already visible, and it looked no different from clear water.
Looking at the food that was only enough for one bite, and not getting angry, and quietly eating today's dinner, Colonel Boris made a big decision.
"Roman!" Boris said in a calm voice.
"Sir!"
When the orderlies standing not far behind the colonel heard the shouting, they couldn't help but wonder if the colonel wanted to pursue the matter of dinner? But now that the food stock has reached its limit, it can be supported for a few more days at most, and the colonel also knows about this situation.
"Come here, sit down!" the colonel pointed to a wooden chair not far away.
Roman looked at the colonel in embarrassment, but looking at the calm look on the colonel's face, he didn't seem to be angry.
"Sir, I'll just be standing!"
"I order you to sit down!" Boris was a little annoyed, this soldier is all good, but he is too rigid, and he usually has to give orders by himself in this situation.
"Yes!" Roman straightened up and did it in a dignified manner.
Boris looked at Roman's pale and emaciated figure, thinking of his plan, his heart was faintly unbearable, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, after all, this is a life-and-death mission! But he can't go in person, the atmosphere of the safe house is very delicate now, if he has an accident, the whole safe house will definitely fall into chaos immediately, and it will be ruined, and those who have no support will inevitably die.
Roman couldn't help but feel cramped by the Colonel's tight gaze, and was about to ask out loud, when the Colonel took a deep breath.
"Roman, the man in armor, do you think he is from our earth?"
When Roman heard the Colonel's words, he understood the meaning, they had discussed before, and suspected that these monsters that appeared might not be creatures in this world, although the history of mankind is not very long, but the various surviving materials do not record the slightest information about these monsters.
"Sir, I don't know if he's an earthling, but he's definitely someone who's hostile to those monsters, Huaxia has a saying that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and with his strength, it's very easy to kill us, and he didn't do that, so this person can be allied with us." ”
"Alliance? Not necessarily! Maybe he just doesn't have an interest in us?" Boris said slowly, "Have you heard today's news?"
"Yes!" Roman knew that the Colonel was referring to a team of knights who appeared during the day to hunt down monsters.
"Do you think they're in a group?" Bouris mused.
"Sir, it's possible that, according to eyewitness accounts, they are all wearing the same colored gear. Roman also has no more information for himself to analyze, so he can only guess.
"If so, it means that this is a powerful force, one person can deal with so many monsters, and now there are more than a dozen!" Boris seemed to be encouraged, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he stared at his orderlies tightly, "Roman, now there is a mission of nine deaths, and I need a trustworthy person to carry it out - to find those people!"
Roman immediately understood the reason for the colonel's sudden change tonight, but he couldn't help but fall silent, Roman was not a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, but the sudden flashing of his wife and daughter in his mind made him hesitate.
"Roman, my good boy, I will not force you, but now that there is not much food, and if I don't come up with a way before then, and I can't go on the mission myself, if I'm not there, the safe house will be in chaos, and the civilians will lose their shelter. ”
"Sir, I'll go!" Roman stood up suddenly, but his voice was calm, not because the colonel's words moved him, he just didn't want his wife and daughter to die miserably like that, he was willing to fight for them!
"Thank you, child, thank you!" Boris knew that he was doing everything right, but after all, he was asking a woman's husband and the child's father to carry out an almost mortal task, and his heart felt as uncomfortable as being grabbed by a pair of hands to the heart.
"Roman, there are a few more people you can call to me!" said the colonel, who quickly adjusted his mood.
"Yes!"
The Colonel gave a few names, where they lived, and so on, and Roman wrote them down and walked out, and began to follow the list to find people.
"Evgeny, to go or not, just half a loaf of bread will make you happy once, and if you're lucky, maybe twice!"
Seven or eight five-story houses around were filled with soldiers, and in a room on the third floor of one of the buildings, two soldiers were whispering.
"Don't go! Now you can't even eat, you still have this kind of mood, how sick!" A burly soldier turned his face inward, and scolded in his mouth, although he despised his behavior of taking advantage of people's danger, but one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only do not persecute them.
"Desire is the devil, I'm just looking for a 'demon slayer' to 'exorcise' for me!haha!" Thinking that what he said was funny, a slightly thin soldier on the other side couldn't help but laugh proudly by himself, "And I'm also doing good deeds, not for us to take care of, they would have starved to death! I tell you, you didn't know her bobo was so big!"
The soldier deliberately gestured to size, trying to lure Evgeny on the opposite bed.
", you will hammer you to death again!" Evgeny suddenly felt irritated in his heart, and suddenly got up and glared fiercely at the other side.
The face of the soldier on the opposite side changed suddenly, but as if he was shocked by Yevgeny's burly size, his mouth moved, and he didn't say anything cruel after all, and walked out with a calm face.
Angrily opening the door, he was suddenly startled by the figure standing outside the door.
"What the are you...... I'm sorry, sir!"
The soldier cursed loudly, but when he saw the face of the person who came, he couldn't help but change his mouth.
Roman didn't bother to think about it, and asked, "Is Evgeny here?"
"Well, it's inside!sir!" the soldier hurriedly stepped out of the way, then turned his head and shouted loudly, "Evgeny!
Lying on the bed, Yevgeny wondered in his heart, "What is the commander looking for a small soldier for me?" got up and looked at the door, and immediately recognized that it was Colonel Boris's side.
Roman glanced at the soldier who stood up, looked at the soldier's burly figure and couldn't help but nodded: "Are you Evgeny?"
"Yes, sir!" said Evgeny.
"Let's go, the Colonel is looking for you, come with me now!" Roman said, waving his hand.
"Yes!" Evgeny followed Roman in confusion towards the colonel's office, although he wanted to ask Roman if he had made any mistakes, but he thought carefully that there was nothing wrong with him recently, so he endured it and just followed quietly.
Soon they arrived at the office, and at Roman's signal he walked in nervously, and when he saw that in addition to the colonel, there were four or five other people standing there, and Evgeny became more and more puzzled.
"Sir!"
