Chapter 327 I won't be stupid, but what about Chen Tong? Two in one(1/2)
In the dark sewer, a group of mobile infantry waded through the deep water to search forward. The pale white search light reflected off the wall, reflecting the nervous faces.
The reaction to killing an SSS-level powerhouse is very violent. Claude Chester has been dead for several days, and there are still waves of search teams repeatedly searching in the sewers of Star City, and there are still search teams.
The attitude that it’s not finished until it’s done.
"Captain Tasang, why don't we turn off the search lights! If we really encounter those two assassins, we can't even pretend we can't see them..."
"Yes, Captain, there are old and young brothers. If you die here, your wife, children, and property will all belong to others. It's not worth it..."
Captain Tasang was a strong man in his early forties, with eyes as sharp as a falcon, but looking at the dark sewer with no end in sight, he gritted his teeth and hesitated.
This time, although the Chester family tried their best to block the news, due to the deliberate spread of the news by some thoughtful people, even the family warriors at the bottom knew the specious truth, and people were undercurrents of panic.
The legendary figure of the Chester family, Claude Chester, is dead. The Chester family will face a dark and critical moment. It is possible that the wall will fall and everyone will push the tree down and the hozens will scatter...
...
According to past practice, the Chester family must at least pay some price and give up some benefits in order to calm the turmoil.
But the head of the Chester family was ruthless enough. He almost used violent methods that touched the bottom line of other wealthy families, and mobilized the family's private army to enter the City of Stars at all costs.
This behavior is ostensibly to search for assassins, but in fact it also means to use force to deter other wealthy families.
When we besieged and killed the great elder of the temple, everyone had a share. Now that our mainstay is dead, not only do you not help, but you also want to eat me up?
That's good! Come here! Be happy! You kill me with a sword, and we all fall in love and kill each other.
As for the task of searching for assassins, it fell to people like Tasang. None of those A-level and S-level family strongmen who usually show off their power were searching personally.
Although Li Zhe and Mu Yu are described above as weak villains who are young, not very strong, and are good at using despicable means to successfully assassinate them, and they were also seriously injured. As long as the search team finds traces of each other, the Federation will immediately send strong people.
Come and support.
But this is just a lie to fools. An assassin who can kill an SSS-level strongman can kill a struggling mobile infantry like Tasang even if he only has a few fingers left to move.
If you really find traces of the other party, it's basically like receiving an invitation to death.
"Captain Tasang, let's find a place to rest and go back when the time comes!" An older veteran also began to persuade Tasang.
"Buzz buzz~"
"Shh~~"
Captain Tasang's communicator rang. He made a silence gesture to his companions around him, and then connected the communication.
"The 116 search team reported that section 33 of area B26 was not found and is continuing to search forward..."
"Understood, I will start announcing immediately..."
Captain Tasang received the new order and connected the communication to the portable loudspeaker of the mobile suit.
After he pondered for a few seconds, he said to his companions behind him: "I have received an order from above, asking me to do something in the sewer. Please stop following me."
“…..”
Everyone was very puzzled, but the strong Captain Tasan had already walked forward, and the mobile suit's portable loudspeaker began to mechanically play an announcement.
"The Interstellar Federal Government reports to the Knights of Justice: Tomorrow at noon, 1,281 criminals will be publicly tried in District 16 for the crime of harboring treason and subverting treason. We hope Inspector General Li Zhe will visit...
..The prisoners include Li Shaoqing, Du Guoming, Wang Xishang, Rooney Cole..."
Until Captain Tasang walked away, the long list was not finished. The cold mechanical voice read each name without emotion, just like a red ink pen marking blood-red crosses on the judgment book one by one.
According to what Li Zhe has learned over time, Li Shaoqing, Du Guoming and others are important members of the reformist faction formed by Chen Tong, and Wang Xishang is the eighth child who once worked with Li Zhe.
Despicable and shameless people, the intention to kill them is obvious.
"Can we force the assassins out with just this method? Are those two assassins stupid?" A recruit looked at the captain who was leaving in confusion, and couldn't help but ask the veteran.
The veteran shook his head and said, "Who knows! The legendary knight of justice often does stupid things."
"Find a dry place to stop ahead. I brought a bottle of good wine. Let's keep warm. I hope those two assassins are not in the sewer. Otherwise... we will take care of Tasang.
Wife and children."
The sound in the sewer vibrates and spreads for a long time. As long as such a loud sound is heard by the assassin, how can he still survive?
The veteran sighed and turned off the high-power search light, and darkness suddenly returned to the long sewer.
He followed the wall and waded forward through the stagnant water. A group of mobile suits behind him breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.
But they didn't know that several of them were already on the verge of death.
On the raised platform above them, Li Zhe and Mu Yu, whose presence was obscured by Cainiao Station, were eating hot pot and observing their actions.
Mu Yu took out the meat and vegetables from the hot pot, put it into a small bowl for Li Zhe, and whispered: "Those people in the Federation are really stupid. What does trying those criminals have to do with my father? My father is from Lanxing and not from the Federation."
Li Zhe ate the hot pot silently and suddenly said: "I will definitely not be stupid, but what about Chen Tong?"
Mu Yu, who was adding vegetables to the hot pot, paused for a moment, then put down the colander and looked at Li Zhe calmly.
"Father, actually when I went out to inquire about the news yesterday, I received a reply from Chentong."
"She asked me to use extraordinary means to ensure your safety in extraordinary times."
"..."
Li Zhe instantly felt that the fat beef in his mouth no longer tasted good.
Mu Yu actually learned to hide things from herself. Is this a sign that the girl has entered a rebellious stage?
"Extreme measures? Do you really want to knock me out? Then you didn't tell Chentong that I suppressed your bloodline?"
Mu Yu's face darkened, and he lowered his head and said nothing.
How could she possibly explain this relationship to Chentong clearly?
Why is she focused on becoming a king?
If Chen Tong now knows about her blood relationship with Li Zhe, how should the seniority be calculated? Why should I call you Chen Tong?
Sister? Little mom?
Go to hell!
Li Zhe threw his chopsticks on the small table, stretched his neck and said solemnly: "Let's go and have a look tomorrow. If Chen Tong doesn't show up, it has nothing to do with how many people will die. But if you knock me out, don't blame me.
Cut off ties with you!"
Mu Yu lowered her head and remained silent, but she couldn't help but have an idea in her heart.
"If he cuts off relations with me, then I don't have to wait until I become a 'king'..."
However, her psychological fluctuations were captured by Li Zhe through blood connection. Although he could not perceive the specific thoughts and thoughts, Li Zhe could still distinguish the emotional fluctuations of "eagerness to try" and "little surprise".
"What the hell are you thinking of?"
Li Zhe looked at Mu Yu now, as if he was seeing a rebellious little girl, starting to compete with him in a battle of wits and courage.
"nothing......."
Mu Yu denied it in a panic, but she didn't have the talent of "lying". She always spoke based on her strength in everything, and she never bothered to lie.
However, Li Zhe did not continue to question Mu Yu. Instead, he suddenly pricked up his ears and leaned to the edge of Cainiao Station to look into the distance.
A bright light floated from a distance, and someone kept calling repeatedly.
The voice of this call was a little hoarse, but also a little familiar.
............
Li Qiaowei rowed a rubber boat and floated down from the upper reaches of the sewer. Her hoarse voice kept repeating a sentence, which seemed monotonous and mechanical.
"I'm here to find you...you have to hide it...don't let me find you!"
When the rubber boat rowed under Li Zhe and Mu Yu, they faintly heard Li Qiaowei's whisper.
"You must hide well...Don't come out and die foolishly..."
"..."
Li Zhe and Mu Yu felt a little sour and unhappy in their hearts as they watched the rubber boat slip by the river under their noses.
If it was a little girl shouting these words, then she must be happily playing hide-and-seek, but Li Qiaowei's appearance at this moment made people look a little distressed.
His waterproof jacket was covered with stains of sewage, his face had turned pale and lost its rosiness, a few strands of hair were wet and stuck to his smooth forehead, his eye sockets were slightly sunken, but there were a lot of bloodshot eyes in the whites.
Li Zhe already knew that a few days before Chentong was attacked, Li Qiaowei, like Qiao Yian, was also expelled from the Federation Ancestral Star by Chentong.
Li Qiaowei is a direct descendant of the Li family in Jingchuan. After being promoted to SS level a few years ago, she has been hailed as the future backbone of the family. However, the Li family in Jingchuan participated in the siege of the elder of the temple. With Li Qiaowei and Chen Tong
How do you want her to handle her relationship?
Are you trying your best to help Chentong?
Or is it the family that protected and raised her, gave her countless resources, let her sit on the throne of the commander of the First Army, and regarded her as the hope of the future?
No matter whose head this entanglement falls on, it is a purgatory-level trial targeting the soul and human nature.
In the end, it was Chen Tong who rescued Li Qiaowei and prevented her from falling into a dilemma.
But looking at Li Qiaowei's appearance now, it is obvious that she has been mentally tortured beyond words.
But this time when Li Zhe arrived at Star City, he only made an appointment with Qiao Yian, but not Li Qiaowei, which should have made her feel even more uncomfortable.
To be continued...
