In the narrow and dark confinement room, Shi Huaiya sat on the cold ground, holding her knees with her arms and letting the cold air wander freely.
After being disarmed and imprisoned in a solitary room, she lost her sense of time. Every minute was extremely long. At first, she was still shouting to let her out, but later she sat on the ground in a daze without saying a word.
The cold night made her whole body stiff. She was extremely worried about the safety of the doctor and the Rhode Island operators, because everything they encountered in the ruined city was a conspiracy, but she didn't understand it until the last moment, and she didn't even have time to do anything. issue any warnings.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the sound of artillery was so loud that Shi Huaiya heard it and cried silently in the darkness. Her self-blame and fear prevented her from crying loudly. What came to her mind were the tragic deaths of her former comrades. scene. Later, her eyes also died, leaving only an empty body.
Unknowingly, Shi Huaiya fell asleep. She had a terrible dream, which continued her previous fantasy. Her dead comrades dragged their broken bodies and asked her why she wanted to kill them.
"I don't!"
"I've thought of a way."
"sorry……"
"Woooooooooooo..."
Click.
The door to the confinement room opened, and a beam of light shone on Shihuaiya, who woke up from a nightmare. She couldn't stand the dazzling light and fell to the ground.
"Miss, you are suffering."
A pair of warm and strong hands helped Shi Huaiya, put a thick coat on her body, and put on a pair of wide sunglasses for her.
This voice belongs to the family's old butler, an old man in his sixties, but why does he appear in the secondary base?
The familiar smell of perfume appeared in Shi Huaiya's dim sight. A white-haired old man, wearing a straight dress, was handing over a cup of hot drink.
"Miss, drink some to warm yourself up."
Shi Huaiya's limbs were numb and she couldn't even hold the cup. A pair of big, generous hands helped her hold the cup. A trace of warmth spread from her hands to her whole body, dispelling the chill in her body.
"Ah~"
The old man smiled kindly: "Miss Frozen, my salary for this month will be deducted."
Shihuaiya lowered her head and took a sip. The warm liquid flowed down her throat and into her stomach. She felt like she was alive again, and the butler's words relieved a heavy worry in her heart.
"Miss, there is news from Longmen that all members of Rhode Island's support team have survived. Some of them have returned to Longmen ahead of schedule. Please don't cry anymore."
Shi Huaiya looked at the housekeeper in disbelief: "Is it true? But..."
The housekeeper supported her and walked slowly: "Is it true? When did I deceive the young lady? Master Wei issued an order overnight, asking the Guards Bureau and the hospital to organize personnel to rescue the wounded. Except for the few Longmen combatants who died, the rest All Rhode Island operators survived."
Shi Huaiya said dullly: "A miracle..."
I never thought I would be so lucky in the end!
"It is indeed a miracle. The commander of Rhodes Island divided his team into two. One team made many passes through the siege of the integration movement and squeezed out through a gap. The other team faced The extremely cruel Sakaz warlock troops, but they all fell into the Rhode Island commander’s confusing behavior and let each other go again.”
Shihuaiya learned about the heavy losses Rhode Island suffered when it encountered the Sakaz warlock troops in Chernobog. Several combat teams were annihilated, and a large number of elite operators and even senior senior operators died in the battle, which made the opponent famous. Prestige.
But this time, a giant with terrifying power was played around by a skinny child. It was simply unbelievable!
The two continued to walk forward. The housekeeper seemed to be very familiar with the environment here and easily led the young lady to the mobilization square of the base.
A strong smell of blood hit his face, and Shi Huaiya looked at the scene in front of him in stunned silence!
There were corpses everywhere, blood flowed all over the floor, even the soles of her shoes were covered with sticky plasma, and several people in black armor were cutting wounds among the corpses.
Her face, which had regained some color, suddenly turned pale, and her lips trembled as she said, "What on earth is going on?"
The butler said without changing his expression: "Originally, I didn't want the young lady to see this dirty scene, but the patriarch said that the young lady suffered a great loss, and she must watch these traitors commit suicide with her own eyes in order to relieve her anger. Now this secondary base has been taken over by the Shihuaiya family. ”
"Master Wei was very dissatisfied with the behavior of these rebellious people attacking allies, so he sent special forces to carry out clean-up work. During the elimination process, strong evidence of collusion between the traitors and the integration movement was also found. With complete witnesses and material evidence, he was executed on the spot without trial. .”
Beatrix Shihuaiya didn't know how many traitors those men in black had killed, and she didn't want to know. This secondary base cost a lot of money, but the revenue it brought also increased sharply every day. In the past, Shihuaiya The family can only get involved in part of it but not control it alone. Now it has directly taken over one. It is self-evident how much say it will have in the upper level of Longmen in the future.
But her heart was trembling with fear. Master Wei was so fast in suppressing the rebellion. There was no wrangling, no hesitation, no trial, no jury, just like...
It's like having the butcher's knife ready from the beginning, just waiting for the prisoner to put the noose around his neck!
"I……"
"Oh, by the way, Miss, there is a document that must be handed over to you. You will understand after reading it."
The housekeeper took out a document sealed with paint from his pocket and handed it to Shi Huaiya. She tore open the envelope suspiciously, and there was a notice inside.
Due to a major accident in which friendly forces were surrounded by the integration movement due to command errors, she was dismissed from her post and no longer served as the staff officer of the Longmen advancement force of Satellite City No. 1145. She returned to Longmen today for another appointment.
"Don't worry, Miss. You are the hope of the family's future. Your talents are simply buried in this ruined city. There will be plenty of opportunities to show your talents when you return to Longmen."
The housekeeper comforted Shi Huaiya, who looked gloomy and uncertain. There was another piece of information in his pocket.
The rebels entrenched in the secondary base have been brought to justice, but the elite team that went out to pursue Rhode Island has disappeared.
People are missing every day in the ruined city, and people are dying every day. A mere two hundred people are not enough to fill the teeth of this giant beast that chooses and devours people. He did not mention this trivial matter. What should he do to make the young lady feel better? Big things to consider.
"Let's return to Longmen now without reporting to Commander Du?"
"No need at all. We are taking the family's independent route. You only need to submit a paperwork report to Mr. Wei."
