Chapter 57: She Won
In the castle, in the vestibule, the situation has changed drastically.
The battle between the Inspectorate and the Guards has ended.
Two of Matthew's four senior officers fell, and the remaining two, like Matthew, had many wounds on their bodies, but the three of them were still guarding the crumbling "Wesley", staring at the spies of the monitoring team opposite. "Wesley" has been put on the ground by Babu at this time, supported by Matthew and protected by two officers, Matthew carefully supported his "Majesty", not even daring to make a big move, because he found that the body of "Your Majesty" has long exceeded the limit, and at this time it is supported by the strength that comes from nowhere, not to mention a slightly larger movement, even if it is so light now, Ma Xiu is worried about bringing serious harm to His Majesty.
And the spies they were staring at, more than a dozen people were gathering around the leader Snark, Snark's originally gloomy face became even more gloomy, while standing in place to listen to the reports of those subordinates who contracted to come and go, while glancing at "Wesley" who was surrounded by more and more people from time to time.
Seeing the change in the situation upstairs, the important ministers downstairs no longer rushed upwards in a chaotic manner, and the unidentified retreated to give way to the tortuous stairs, and the most powerful ministers joined hands on the stage, surrounded by Matthew and their three escorts, and burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's good for you to come back, it's good to come back." Very consciously not too close, several high-level people through the guards burst into tears, crying silently said, "I just heard that Your Majesty is sleeping, even your doctor has confirmed it, we are heartbroken and can't wait to follow Your Majesty to go together, fortunately you are back again, woo woo, it must be the blessing of the goddess Ella who pulled you back from the sleeping world." ”
As the high-level people spoke, they secretly spied into the corner of the corner pretending to be non-existent, Babu, Monica and Anna, obviously trying to figure out how His Majesty in front of him came back from the dead, and "Wesley" himself looked like he didn't know why, and he didn't dare to say more, so he could only support weakly.
"I see, this is something that a father can do? This son is ruthless enough, this family is really ......" In the corner, Babu had already briefly explained to Monica the secrets heard in the farewell room, hearing the whole process, Monica's expression changed again and again, until the end she could only open her mouth slightly, unable to speak for a long time, and finally sighed, shook her head and said, "Everyone is afraid of mutants, afraid of edge tricks, but those strange things can't do this kind of thing, I suddenly feel that people are much more terrible than mutants." ”
"Maybe it's because he's crazy." Babu also sighed a little dazed, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have come up with such a vicious plan"
"It's a good thing that Wesley's body didn't die and was saved by you, otherwise his vicious plan might have succeeded." Monica's eyes wandered, and she looked at Babu thoughtfully, "It is said that the person who can come up with such a plan should be very cautious, and it is the most critical point of this kind, it is impossible to leave without confirming whether the target is really dead." ”
"He confirmed." Babu shrugged, "It's a pity that he shouldn't know yet, there is a first aid technique called cardiopulmonary resuscitation." ”
"Huh?"
"I don't know why I mastered it, it's still the same." Babu crossed his fingers with his hands and made a pressing motion, "This thing can't cure the disease, but there is a chance to save the person who just died, although there is a high probability that he will die again after being rescued, but in some special circumstances, it is still very useful." ”
"Like now?"
"No, I should say like just now."
Both of them looked at "Wesley" who was surrounded by everyone from a distance, and His Royal Highness the Baron in his body must have enjoyed this feeling of standing in front of the stage and accepting everyone's praise and worship for the first time in his life, but unfortunately, since the body of "Cui En" left, the hatred in his eyes gradually faded, his breath became weaker and weaker, and his face became more and more gray.
"Brigade...... Traveler, Babu, Monica. ”
Without the obstruction of the secret agents of the monitoring team, the soldiers of the pro-guard outside entered the vestibule and platform one after another, completely protecting the city lord "Wesley" and General Matthew, and seeing that "Wesley" gradually became angry, Matthew ignored the other ministers who were crying loudly, his eyes were red, he sniffed and raised his head, blinked his eyes vigorously, and waited until the red silk in his eyes faded, and then put Wesley, who was already unstable, on the ground, knelt on one knee, hanging his head and saying nothing.
The retainers of Donggu on the side also saw the clue, and they all stopped crying one after another, their expressions became solemn, they took off their hats and bowed their heads, and were silent, making the whole platform quickly become quiet, and "Wesley" held Matthew's outstretched hand, but did not say anything to him like the real Wesley, but looked around with his eyes, until he saw Babu in the corner, he stretched out his hand to them, and called the names of the two in a weak voice.
The two looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and walked hand in hand, and the soldiers guarding were instructed not to stop them, so that the two went straight to his side.
Squatting down beside "Wesley", Barbu took his other outstretched hand, and the two of them looked up close at the shell of a wonderful life, and the victims in it. Wesley's eyes were full of reluctance and pleading, and he held Babu's hand, his lips trembled, and he wanted to say something, but his voice was too hoarse to make a sentence.
However, Babu seemed to have understood what he wanted to say, sighed softly, and shook his head: "I'm sorry, what Ira can't do, we can't do it, we can't do it, we can give you more than half an hour of time, it's already our limit, I told you this result just now, I'm sorry, I didn't lie to you." ”
For a moment, "Wesley" showed a rather fierce expression, as if he was about to burst out and kill, but was immediately interrupted by violent wheezing and coughing, and when he opened his eyes again, the ferocity and resentment were gone, and all that remained was despair and deep helplessness, and the hand holding Babu slowly let go, pointing to the bewildered Aurora and the second highness Sophie who had just stepped onto the platform.
The three eyes met unexpectedly in this way, I don't know if it was the first time that the three of them met for many years, but each other's eyes were very complicated, as if they contained a thousand words, and they were entangled for a long time before they finally separated.
"Wesley" let out a sigh that seemed to come from the soul, and once again struggled to raise his hand, and stretched out his hand to the two highnesses, Sophie and Aurora hesitated for a moment, but still slowly leaned over, but neither stretched out their hand, just lowered their heads, full of wary eyes at "Wesley".
I don't know how long they looked at each other, Aurora's wild face appeared confused and puzzled, and Sophie's beautiful face also appeared a trace of doubt, and then there was an incredible suddenness, trembling and whispering: "It's you?" Is it you? It turned out to be you, my ......"
Her lips were open, but the words behind her were swallowed back, and at this time, Aurora suddenly stretched out her hand, although with a vicious look, she still held the hand stretched out by "Wesley". Seeing this, Sophie gritted her teeth, twisted her head to the side, and shook her hand awkwardly.
The four hands finally clasped together, and "Wesley" struggled to move his arms together, bringing Aurora and Sophie's hands together. The hairs on the back of Sophie's hand stood on end, and Aurora subconsciously twitched her hand, but she obviously had explosive power, and her hand shook enough to easily pull "Wesley" away, but she couldn't break free from his trembling and powerless hand, so the hands of the two women were held together, and then "Wesley's" hands were also folded, and they were weakly pressed on the backs of their hands.
Sophie and Aurora looked up at each other at the same time, looked at each other again, and then turned their gaze to "Wesley", who had actually regained a slight flush on his face. The distorted and hideous abominable face of the past is actually smiling at this time, not the cruel smile of the past, but a faint, gentle, peaceful smile, just like the humble boy who once existed in his memory.
The man smiled and spat out the last words to the two sisters, "I'm sorry." ”
Then, the hands on the two small hands hung down weakly, and "Wesley" closed his acting skills with a smile on his face, and never opened them again.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, woo woo woo."
Knowing that this was the last interaction of the family, the surrounding ministers did not dare to make a sound to disturb, at this time, seeing "Wesley's" arm slip down, and his chest did not rise and fall again, several elderly people still cried, Matthew also lowered his head this time, his shoulders twitched for a while, his fists pressed on the ground and rubbed hard, and the back of Mo's hand was blurred and he didn't know it.
And Sophie and Aurora, who were holding hands, suddenly seemed to have been electrocuted, and almost at the same time let go of the hands that were holding together, and wiped them vigorously on their bodies in disgust, as if they had some disgusting dirt on their hands, whether it was their movements or demeanor, they were surprisingly consistent, as if they had rehearsed countless times.
The two looked like they were eager to cut off their hands, and their eyes turned to the side in the opposite direction, and no one looked at anyone anymore with disgust, but it didn't last a few seconds, and their eyes returned to the corpse on the ground, Aurora stared at the corpse blankly and muttered: "He seems to be ......"
"I know, shut up, stinking beast."
"Cheap bitch, you ......"
Aurora's face immediately became hideous, and the fingers of her hands flicked, as if she was about to jump up and break Sophie's neck, but before she could do anything, she stopped, and looked at the steps of the platform, where the graceful Abby was walking slowly, her expression calm, but there was a faint sadness in her eyes. She ignored the two women who almost fought, and walked straight to the corpse of "Wesley" and slowly knelt down, gently tidying up the corpse's remains, while Matthew, who had been guarding the corpse, gave her a place as if he took it for granted, guarding her and the corpse.
On the other side, Snark, who had been with the inspectors and kept his distance from the other important ministers, walked over with a gloomy face after listening to the reports of several subordinates, and although the other important ministers had hostile faces, they still gave way to him, until he approached the cordon of the guards, and was stopped by the officers who had changed into arms.
"You traitors, do not come near." There were young officers with their weapons in their hands and shouting loudly.
"Betrayal? Our monitoring team has never been loyal to a certain person, but only responsible to the city lord, just now Cui En is the legitimate city lord, of course the monitoring team must be loyal to him, now the city lord has been replaced by His Majesty Aurora, and the object of my allegiance has naturally been replaced by her, how can you talk about betrayal? Snark smiled coldly, his eyes glared, the young junior officer couldn't stand the pressure, and subconsciously took a few steps back, allowing the inspector to easily walk past him and go straight to Aurora.
As soon as Aurora looked up, he saw Snark coming towards him, his face immediately showed anger, the cyan bulging veins all over his body writhed like a snake again, the energy fluctuations in his body were almost visible to the naked eye, his fists were clenched tightly, and he greeted it with a cruel smile.
However, before she could catch up, a hand stretched out beside her and grabbed Aurora's wrist, how could an ordinary person's hand hold an elite-level fighter who was close to the strength of the commander level, but being held by this hand, Aurora stopped. Stiffly, he looked down at the hand on his wrist, and then nodded his head and looked directly at the owner of the hand.
"Stinky beast, I know you can't understand human speech, so I'll only say it once, and I can't mess around." Sophie held Aurora's hand with disdain, but she had other thoughts in her heart.
"Bitch, let go, or I'll tie you up and put you in the stable."
Idiot, now that the pro-guard team has suffered heavy losses and its strength has been greatly reduced, it is comparable to the combat power of the monitoring team, and it may not be able to eat the opponent, and it can't force the other party to be anxious, not to mention that this kind of person can be used in the future, how can he follow the mood. These words turned around in Sophie's heart a few times, but she couldn't say it in front of Snark, so she could only take a sip of her head, let go of her hand and close her eyes.
Who knew that Aurora didn't swing his fist, but instead glared at Snark's cold face, snorted heavily, and said in a muffled voice: "Tell me, what are you going to do?" ”
"Your Majesty." Snark, however, as if he had not heard the disgust and anger in Aurora's words, bowed and said as if nothing had happened, "The spy has reported that the rebel Trine has been found. ”
"Huh?" One sentence made almost everyone around focus their attention here, especially Aurora, who couldn't care about clenching his fists anymore, and couldn't wait to ask, "Where is it?" ”
"When he fled, he was broken by the citizens who went out, and now the citizens are spontaneously searching for him, and the members of the monitoring team are also rushing over." Snark said with a blank face.
"Okay, we must find him as soon as possible, and this farce should be over." Aurora said, clenching her fists.
"Aurora, you have more important things to do before you bring him back." Abby finished sorting out the remains of "Wesker", and the sadness in her eyes had faded, leaving only the anger that was not easy to check. She sneered, looked at the important ministers around her, and suddenly said loudly, "On Wesley's last orders, congratulations to His Majesty Aurora, the lord of the new city, on his succession." ”
Only then did the surrounding ministers react, hugging and pushing Aurora to the middle of the platform, and then knelt on one knee at the top and bottom, all shouting the same slogan.
"Long live Your Majesty, Lord of the City."
The slogan spread all around the castle, and in the midst of the slogan, Abby sneered and whispered to herself, "You shouldn't have done it to Trian, Wesley, since you did, then I don't have to scruple." Even if you can come back alive from the Avengers, there is no chance that from now on, the position of the city lord will completely belong to Aurora, not to mention, with the Avengers' hatred for 'you', can you come back alive? Hum. ”
Abby didn't shy away from Babu and Monica, and after snorting heavily, she whispered to the two, "'She' won." ”
