Chapter 161: Welcome to District 17

At the same time, the seventeenth arrondissement is downtown.

"Lilith exposed!"

The headset was extremely noisy.

There was no need to be reminded, and the others knew what was really going on.

Because Lilicy, who was supposed to occupy the high ground to complete the sniping kill, almost killed Aureliano in the face, and aimed her gun at each other in front of thousands of people.

This is not what a sniper does.

For a moment, they seemed to understand why Will had been arrested last night for going to the law enforcement headquarters to plant explosives.

Psionic beings.

They were sure that a minute earlier Lililith had reached out for a pre-planned sniper spot - a 70-story building facing the central plaza!

"Bang ——!"

A gunshot pierced the sky.

However, the gunshot did not come from Lilicy, even after being on the battlefield for a long time, they could not determine the source of the bullet for a while, they could only see the bullet piercing the firearm in Lilicy's hand, and the impact caused her to fall to the ground.

"Cover!"

As a comrade-in-arms for many years, the firefighters took action almost immediately.

The moment he kicked the door, he threw a smoke bomb in the direction of the crowd, as long as he rushed into the location of the smoke, it would not be a problem to shoot Aureliano, and the smoke would also cause a riot, providing Lilith with a chance to evacuate.

Next second!

The smoke bomb slammed into the wall and bounced back, and the rising smoke screen suddenly slammed his face and made him cough incessantly.

Looking closely, there was still the shadow of the central square in front of him, which was clearly a public toilet nearly a kilometer away from the square, and before he could figure out the situation, he felt a pain in his vest, and a strong electric current instantly surged through his whole body.

Soon in the smoke came a voice that seemed to come from behind a gas mask, "Report, Target Two, Captured." ”

Everything happened so much that the headset fell silent for a long time.

20 seconds.

That's how long it took the law enforcement to arrest the two.

"Door, it's a door!"

The hacker suddenly said that, as the master of the whole picture, he noticed that both of his companions had done the same thing before the anomaly occurred—through a door.

This was originally a very ordinary action, but it directly put them into an unexpected situation, "Stay where you are, don't act rashly, wait for me to ...... the infographic"

The hacker's thoughts were interrupted by a roar overhead, and three armored hovercars stopped above him, shadows enveloping the vehicles they were using to evacuate.

The ground seemed to tremble as several outcasts rang out, and several enforcers in exoskeleton armor surrounded the vehicle, locking on to the vehicle with anti-materiel weapons in their hands.

As the commander, Doug raised his hand towards Aureliano, who was far away from the podium, and the latter smiled slightly and continued his speech, "We are gathered here for the future of this city, and from this moment on, we don't need to bow to any enemy anymore......"

It's a trap.

Lu Xiang's unhappy parting with Aureliano at the Public Opinion Council was a trap set to make them relax their vigilance.

And when they bared their fangs, it only took 37 seconds to break them one by one.

"Please get out of the car and put your hands where we can see them."

Outside, there was a shout from the law enforcer.

Planted.

When these two words came to the hacker's mind, he was dragged out of the driver's seat by Doug and lifted in the air like a chicken.

This is not at all the same level as the opponent they met in a neutral country, as if it were ...... All their actions are firmly controlled by the other party.

It's a trap laid specifically for them.

"Target three, arrested."

……

The other side.

The man with a visible scar on the bridge of his nose closed the headset, his hands propped on the edge of the window, looking down at the crowd below, and from this angle, everything in the central square seemed incomparably small, whether it was Aureliano or the citizens listening to his speech, it became a dot of the lake.

He heard footsteps behind him, but didn't turn around immediately.

"Colonel Pelton......"

Lu Xiang recognized the other party.

A few years ago, a secret operations unit on the "outside" betrayed the coalition government, and the commander of the force, Pelton, was accused of treason.

The reason was the brutal massacre of civilians in a small town during a mission carried out by the "outside".

Subsequent investigations proved that the town was not a den of the rebels, and that it did not contain weapons of mass destruction, as intelligence claimed.

This incident caused an uproar in neutral countries and had an extremely bad impact on the image of the coalition government.

So, after some investigation, the coalition government found out that Colonel Pelton, the leader of the team, had clashed with the locals, slaughtered the town and tried to cover up his crime on the grounds that the other party was hiding weapons of mass destruction.

The reason why Lu Xiang knew about this was because a senior sister who took good care of her at that time participated in the mission of hunting down the rebel troops, which was equivalent to a graduation assessment for them.

The rebel forces engaged in fierce captures with them, and eventually almost the entire rebel force was wiped out, except for the Pell team and a few remnants of his party, who escaped and have been missing since.

Lu Xiang didn't expect that he would meet the traitor who had seen the photo once in the file room in this way.

As for the reason for Pelton's massacre of the town in the first place, and the truth about treason......

Maybe no one cared about that for a long time.

The coalition government has already decided on this coffin and has personally put an end to it.

"Welcome to District 17."

"The only people who can change the law enforcement in this city are the graduates of that school."

Pelton lit a cigarette for himself, and the atmosphere between the two did not reach the point of saber rattling, and the way they talked was more like friends they hadn't seen for a long time, "How, are you still used to life in District 17?" ”

"Habit."

"That's good."

Pelton raised his head and exhaled a puff of smoke ring, "However, the presence of a talent like you in District 17 shows that after all these years, the coalition government really hasn't changed at all." ”

For the first time in many years, he returned to his homeland.

When he was sent on a mission to the "outside world", he never imagined that the mission would last for nearly ten years, so much so that he could not even keep up with the changes in the city.

A border city can become so prosperous, I really don't know what the core area is like now?

Sadly, it seems that they can't get that far on their journey this time.

"Although it is a bit presumptuous to say this, I would like to ask you to restrain yourself and cooperate with our work."

Lu Xiang did not hesitate to aim his gun at Pelton.

Whatever had happened in the past, her job now was to arrest Pelton and his accomplices.

"I'm afraid it won't work."

A syringe slipped into Pelton's hand from the cuff, and the syringe was filled with a green unknown solvent, "The criminals caught after hard work are more fulfilling." ”

As he spoke, he plunged a needle into his artery.

Pelton was responded to by a gunshot.

The bullet went straight through his body, shattering the glass and crashing down the 80-story building.

The blue sky and the harsh sunlight catch your eye.

The sound of the wind echoed in his ears.

He felt the change that was taking place in his body, and that strange sensation was going up his veins.

When the view of the lake was clear again, the sunlight seemed to be obscured.

Remaining in the Pelton Hole, only a blood-red remains.
