Aurora Sea (5)
Haixin City at night, illuminated by the hazy pale gold simulation light source, is brilliant and beautiful.
Tourists from inside and outside the emperor gather here, each looking for their own fun.
Wine and beauty, dazzling jewelry, sea and land delicacies, flying car competitions, simulated Star Wars everything, bustling places, no less than the first-class cities in the capital's star circle.
However, all the hustle and bustle outside has nothing to do with Yulia.
She huddled quietly in the corner of the attic, hoping that the bad guys who were rummaging through the cabinets downstairs would leave early.
It's a pity that she doesn't know that in front of those capable people, her existence has nothing to hide.
Soon, Yulia was grabbed by the collar and carried out.
"Little girl." The tall hook-nosed man said viciously, "Hand over the valuables, as well as food and water." ”
Yulia's tears were swirling in her eyes, but she held back them vividly.
Not only does crying mean nothing, but it can also provoke anger and a beating.
This kind of thing, in the week that her grandfather was arrested, she had already experienced it several times.
"Uncle." Yulia reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "There have been several groups of people who have come before, and now there is nothing at home, really." ”
Her stomach made a bowel rattle at this moment, confirming her words.
Hooknose frowned and let go of his hand, pushing her to the ground hard: "Damn, what's the matter!" I finally avoided the guards all over the street and came in, but I didn't expect this house to look small, but in fact, there was nothing! ”
Two other men also went up to the attic. The man with the tattoo on his cheek replied: "In the past few days, the city is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the brothers have been warned not to go out as much as possible - even if the life is boring, it doesn't matter, and you can't even guarantee to eat!" ”
Another bald man stared at Yulia for a while, and suddenly licked his lips heavily: "It's not that you can't survive a few hungry meals, but you can't let go of the fun in front of you." ”
"This little girl is only seven or eight years old, what can she feel like?" The hook man disagreed: "It's not good to get into trouble for this kind of thing." ”
The bald man didn't care at all, and crouched down to pinch Yulia's chin, forcing her to look up, and watched with satisfaction as her eyes widened in horror:
"Afraid of what? In recent times, it has been impossible for the police to put their minds on us. ”
The man with the tattoo on his face also rubbed his hands at this time: "Brother Xiaohui is reasonable. This girl's family has committed a big crime, maybe she will be connected to her, rather than die in vain at that time, it is better to cheaper a few of our brothers now. ”
As he spoke, he bent down and grabbed a handful of Yulia's long hair, put it to the end of his nose and sniffed it with a look of enjoyment.
"Please, please." Yulia's voice trembled: "I can find food for you, and I can also help you wash your clothes and shine your shoes, as long as you let me go"
Her begging was met with no mercy. The hooked man stood indifferently to the side, and the bald man slapped her to the ground with one slap and put his hand on her collar.
Yulia stopped struggling and closed her eyes.
Her heart was beating fast, and her body was trembling uncontrollably with fear.
Grandpa, please bless me, let me live I don't want to die yet.
The expected storm did not fall. Someone gently shook her hand: "Don't be afraid, it's okay." ”
The hand wasn't big, but it was as gentle and firm as the voice.
Yulia slowly opened her eyes and found that the three men had disappeared from before, replaced by two boys.
One of them was a little taller, standing with his hands to the side, not knowing what he was thinking. The other, about her age, looked at her with dark and bright eyes, smiling.
"We are friends with your grandfather, and he asked us to take care of you, and we happened to meet those bad guys."
"Just now?" Yulia asked hesitantly.
Those people looked tough, but they didn't look like they could just let go. She couldn't figure out what was going on, how could they disappear without a sound?
"Don't worry, you'll never see them again." Siloh said as he pulled Yulia up.
"Hungry, aren't you?" As if by magic, she pulled out a bag of food: "Answer us a few questions, and then you can have a good meal." Tomorrow at the latest, your grandfather will be back, and this nightmare will be over. ”
"Hmm." Yulia laughed and nodded vigorously.
In the dimly lit basement, there were seven or eight large silver cages, each containing several handsome mermaids, both men and women.
They were all given a secret medicine, and they could only maintain the state of a mermaid, and they could not transform back into a human body, let alone use any more source energy.
"Did you hear that we won't be auctioned off tonight?" Said a mermaid with a beautiful lake blue tail.
"Really?" The eyes of the other merfolk sparkled: "Julian, are they going to let us go home?" ”
"How could it be. I've heard that there will be no more contraband auctions for some time, including us. ”
"So, we don't have to be separated for the time being, we can still stay together and stay in Haixin City?"
"I guess so." Julian said, but the sadness between his brows lingered.
The heavy door slowly slid open, and several uniformed men walked in.
Looking at the Source Energy Gun in their hands, Julian's heart sank. It seems that his previous worries have really come true.
"Kill them all." The leader commanded.
"Why?" A delicate mermaid asked in horror as she held her hands tightly on the fence.
The leader waved his hand and stopped the killing poke that was about to begin.
"You're just not in good health. The lord gave an order to clean up all risks and hidden dangers. The Aurora Sea did not exist before, and there will be no mermaid auctions in the future. ”
When he said this, he shook his head slightly: "But don't worry, there will be many people who will accompany you on the road." ”
With a wave of their palms, the executioners silently pulled the trigger.
A bright green source of energy erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and then inexplicably stopped in the air.
"Ahhh Screams emanated from the mouths of the gunmen, who threw away their source guns and danced their hands and cried.
Julian mustered up the courage to look out, and saw a pale blue flame spreading from the palms of their hands to their arms, and there was no intention of stopping.
The person at the head of the group waved his source energy again and again, wanting to extinguish the flames on his subordinates, but it was like adding fuel to the fire, making the blue fire burn more violently.
"Who's messing around?" He jumped like thunder, his eyes were like knives, and he swept over the caged mermaid sharply: "You think these little tricks can help you escape? Stop dreaming! ”
His hands twitched, and one by one the source energy turned into large blades, flying towards the merfolk who had no power to resist.
"That's enough." Xi He appeared abruptly in the room. He didn't do anything, but the blades rolled back and cut the leader to pieces.
In the surprised gaze of Julian and the others, a bit of extremely bright green light appeared in his palm, turned into several extremely subtle green points of light, and flew into the foreheads of the mermaids.
Then they found that the source energy core, which had been extremely obscure in their bodies before, suddenly became clear and bright, and functioned freely.
The secret medicine that had restricted them suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The cage door opened silently, and the merfolk who had transformed into human forms walked out and knelt down reverently in front of Xihe.
"Wait a little longer before going out. Someone will take you home. And when he had finished speaking, the man was gone.
Mervyn stood on the top floor of the Star Commander's Mansion, overlooking the Sea Heart City below, but in his heart, he quickly went through all the affairs of the Aurora Sea, confirming that there was no more omission.
Just now, the latest order had been delivered, and countless soldiers and guards were pouring out of the prison and everywhere to purge the suspects and their families, as well as the families of all those who had been executed before.
They are full of resentment towards the Star Government and themselves, and if they happen to encounter them by the Inspectorate, there is a high probability that they will talk nonsense and break the current good situation.
Therefore, he must not take this risk. Left and right these lives, with the help of Bliss to cover up, is not a big deal.
As long as tonight passes, then the Aurora Sea under his leadership will be invulnerable and can withstand scrutiny and scrutiny in all aspects.
The Miao Empire is so vast, and the Aurora Sea is rated as a first-class this year, so it stands to reason that it is impossible for the Supervision Envoy to come to the door so early.
And after tomorrow, he should still look forward to the arrival of the Inspector, because he will most likely rise to prominence because of his excellent political achievements, and even be given a knighthood.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Mervyn's lips.
"Send a glass of Bingjue wine in." He commanded Bliss.
It was not bliss that responded to him, but a cold voice that was extremely strange:
"Captain Mervyn. I am Pro. Whereas, during your reign, Bliss has committed all sorts of felonies in defiance of the laws and regulations of the Empire, and has been detained pending trial, I have taken over the matter of Elysium. ”
"As for your crimes, I have handed them over to the Inspector and will be at his disposal."
The door opened, and footsteps rang out. Mervyn turned his head with difficulty to look at the comer, his face as dead as ashes.
