Chapter 140. Act III, Adele Dawson

They are stranded on this isolated island and have lost contact with the outside world.

Zhou Jinru found that Adella glanced at him, he touched it quietly, and stood behind the female worker.

"Do you know what's going on?"

"But it can be speculated that Lentinium is in the hinterland of Victoria, and it is basically impossible for it to be attacked by hostile countries, and the surrounding vigilance force is also very strong, and it will not be able to capture the city in a short time, you should understand what I mean, right?"

Zhou Jinru snorted, of course he knew that Adella's words could be summed up in a few words, and the strongest fortresses were captured from the inside.

"That's a terrible suck."

He couldn't help but pout, he had just said that a force of more than 3,000 people would attack the palace, and as a result, Lentinium was really under martial law, hoping that it was only because of the riots caused by the march.

But looking at the attitude of Voller, it seems that it is not so simple.

"How many permanent troops are there in Voll?"

"More than 500 heavily armed soldiers are guarding this place, and the prison guards have to calculate otherwise, the barracks are equipped with steam mechs, and the will of the Victorian monarch is the spear in their hands. ”

"It's amazing."

Zhou Jinru kept his mouth shut, people didn't take these hired workers to heart at all, just one steam mecha could wipe out all the hired workers present.

After the initial commotion, the hired workers gradually calmed down, and the guards did not make any further moves, no matter who was waiting patiently, more hired people thought that they might not be able to leave Voller today.

"It's cold, and once it gets dark, the Folle prison, surrounded by the Saiga River, will only get colder, we need warmth, we need cold, we need food."

This is the voice of all employees.

The winter days were very short, and as the sun in the west gradually dropped and the temperature became harsh, the hired workers, who were already wearing thin overalls, had no time to rest, and they were tired all day and their stamina and will were at their weakest.

……

……

The fire was burning in the warden's office in Voll, the heat was constantly emitting from the fence, the warden wearing only a shirt and a cardigan patiently looked at a document, the riots in the city of Lentinium came to an end, the unemployed and laborers who had gathered temporarily were dispersed, the matter was not so easy to solve, the commander-in-chief of the guard of Lentinium dispatched the steam mech, everyone knew that flesh and blood could not fight against the steam mech, and they finally chose to give up.

The warden twisted the pen, paused for a few seconds and wrote on the slightly yellowed paper:

"It is necessary to be careful with those Jacobins, they are not simple parties, and if they are caught, they can be sent to Volle, where they will honestly tell everything."

The warden took an envelope out of a drawer, carefully folded the letter and put it in, and then sealed the letter, placing it in the corner of his desk, and there was a rhythmic knock at the door.

"Come in."

The warden held the frame of the glass, and the person who pushed the door in was his secretary: "Sir, those hired men want to return to the city, and if they can't, they think they should get what they deserve, food, water, and everything they need to spend the night." ”

"There will be no ferries passing by today, their wishes are destined to be frustrated, there are many places where Voller prison can rest, whether it is an ordinary prison or a special prison, there are many empty cells, if they want, I can arrange a single room."

"Won't this ......?"

"Don't worry about them."

The warden picked up the letter on the corner of the table: "Send this letter out and deliver it to the adult, and it must be delivered in person." ”

The secretary bowed his head, picked up the letter, and turned away, closing the door with his hand.

The warden sat at his desk, his fingers tapping lightly on the table, the ferry will not come today, the material reserves of the Voller prison can be used for three days, if you count these hired laborers, they will be exhausted in a day and a half at most, these people are trouble, it is better to send them out as soon as possible than to keep them in your hands.

He seemed to remember something, rang the bell at the table, and a civilian pushed the door in: "Sir? ”

"Contact Ms. Garville."

"Yes."

"Ask her if she can get a boat first."

"Yes."

……

……

"For some reason, we're just a bunch of trouble in the eyes of the big guys."

Zhou Jinru looked at the angry hired workers, because their demands were not met, and the warden threatened them with Vole.

Adella didn't have much worry like him: "I think the warden will find a way to get us out of here in order to reduce trouble, after all, this is his territory, and we are stuffed in by other people, and if something goes wrong, he won't have a good life." ”

"And what about our plan?"

Someone from the squad asked.

Now you don't have to think about how the mission was completed, do you want to use your flesh and blood to collide with the steam mecha?

"Maybe there's a chance."

The captain, who had not spoken, spoke.

"None of us can get close to the tower, and even if we do, what if we do, how can the guards inside solve it?"

"There's still a chance."

Zhou Jinru remained silent and listened carefully on the side, the captain of the action team did not speak until now, obviously he had done a very detailed investigation during this time, unlike the rest of the team who had the intention of giving up, he was always working hard for the task.

"It's still that problem, how to solve the steam mecha?"

"You don't need to deal with the steam mechs, you just need to keep them out of action."

Then, they began to discuss what to do next, and Zhou Jinru listened because the captain of the action team did not take him into account, in other words, he was an extra person.

"Zhou, you don't have to get involved, this matter has nothing to do with you, even if we fail in the end and are arrested, or killed, you will be fine."

Zhou Jinru nodded, maybe in the eyes of this captain, he was an eyeliner who was shoehorned in to spy on all of them.

"No, Zhou is qualified to participate, he is also a member of the organization, we should not exclude him!"

Adele's indignation didn't resonate much, and in the eyes of the other six people, Zhou Jinru was an outsider.

"Dawson, you have to be careful about your actions, this operation is already very secretive and dangerous, if there is an accident, all of us will die!"

Zhou Jinru couldn't help but glance at Adella more, and from the last name that came out of the captain's mouth, he noticed that her full name might be Adella Dawson.

"Zhou, thank you for your kindness, please leave now."

"Good luck to you."

Zhou Jinru immediately moved his steps and left, without the slightest hesitation.
