"My name is Reese, the leader of the Gray Wolf Gang in Palm Springs, a Roman legion."
Reese said with a painful expression:
"We heard that a little girl will pass by here today, and someone has offered her a high reward."
Speaking of this, Reese lowered his head, his eyes wandering a little.
"So we came here, we planned to kidnap her to collect the reward..."
"hehe."
Ryan looked at Reese playfully, laughed and said:
"You are dishonest."
As he spoke, he squatted down, pulled up Reese's hair and stared at him. His tone of voice was as cold as an iceberg:
“Since you are a member of the Roman Legion, you should know the consequences of killing the Shadow of Caesar.
After kidnapping this little girl, you didn't run away. Instead, you swaggered into the house prepared by the Roman legion for this little girl.
how? Do you think the Roman legionaries are fools and will not take revenge on you? "
Reese looked away and whispered tremblingly:
"I do not know what you're talking about."
Ryan held the dagger inserted in Reese's thigh and twisted it hard, stirring up a mass of rotten flesh from the wound on Reese's thigh, causing Reese to scream in pain.
"Tell me, who ordered you to do it!"
"It's Isis! It's Isis!
Stop moving, I say, I say, please stop torturing me! "
Reese twisted his body and shouted, the last trace of cunning in his eyes completely disappeared, replaced by extreme fear.
"Isis? Governor of Palm Springs?
ha! "
Ryan laughed angrily after hearing this.
"You said that the governor of the Roman legion asked you to hunt down the shadow of Caesar?"
After speaking, Ryan grabbed Reese's hair, lifted him up, and yelled:
"Are you taking me for an idiot?"
"It's really him! I didn't lie to you! You believe me! Please believe me!"
Ryan's eyes narrowed, then he let go of Reese's hair and let Reese sit on the ground with a plop.
Then I heard Reese continue:
“The night before yesterday, someone found me and hired me to kidnap a person protected by Caesar’s Shadow.
I didn't want to accept it at first, but he offered me a large sum of money and promised that as long as I could return to Palm Springs, someone would protect me from the revenge of Caesar's Shadow, so I agreed. "
"Who is that person?"
"I have no idea."
Reese shook his head as he spoke, and then quickly continued:
"But I kept an eye on him and sent someone to follow him all the way. I saw him entering the Governor's Mansion. I asked someone again and found out that he was the purchasing steward of the Governor's Mansion."
"Do you know who you want to kidnap?"
“I really don’t know this!
I was also surprised when I saw it was a little girl. "
"Why are you staying here?"
“It was the people of Isis who asked for it!
It's the guy with a really big sniper rifle. "
Reese didn't know what an anti-materiel rifle was. He could only describe it this way, and then he continued:
“Since you know that Caesar’s Shadow is dead, you should have been to the scene, right?
The big hole in the engine on the front of the car was made by him with that gun.
It was he who told me about this place, and it was he who asked me to stay here and wait for his orders. "
"Where is he now?"
"Let's go. After we came back at five o'clock in the afternoon, he drove away.
He told us to wait for him to come back and then tell us what to do next. "
"When does he come back?"
"Tomorrow morning at the latest."
The little girl hid in Yang Jie's arms, secretly looking towards Reese from time to time, and then quickly retracting her head.
Just when Rock stabbed the leader's thigh with a knife, Yang Jie pulled the little girl in front of him and turned his back to Rock, who was interrogating, to prevent her from seeing the bloody scene.
At this moment, the little girl seemed to realize that Team Akainu was "teaching the bad guys a lesson."
She looked at Yang Jie, the fear in her eyes faded slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she asked weakly:
"Are you sent by dad to save me?"
Yang Jie controlled the drone with one hand. He stopped what he was doing after hearing the little girl's words, but did not choose to answer.
After thinking about it, Yang Jie stretched out his hand to touch the little girl's head and asked in the gentlest tone possible:
"Little sister, who is your father?"
Seeing Yang Jie's kind face, the little girl finally relaxed. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said:
"My dad is a very, very powerful person."
This is how children talk. After hearing this, Yang Jie chuckled and then asked:
"Very powerful? How powerful is it?"
"It's very, very awesome!"
After the little girl finished speaking, she seemed to feel that Yang Jie didn't believe it, so she opened her white and tender hands again, stretched them as far as possible to both sides and gestured:
"So awesome! Really!
Although I have never met him, my mother and uncles all say that my father is a great and respected man! "
Those uncles?
Yang Jie thought of the corpses of Caesar's shadows he saw in the wasteland.
A girl with a prominent father and being escorted by the shadow of Caesar. All circumstances indicate that this little girl has an unusual identity.
hiss……
Could it be Caesar's child?
It's possible!
After this rather absurd conjecture appeared in his mind, the more Yang Jie thought about it, the more reasonable it became.
After hesitating for a moment, he asked:
"Then what's your father's name?"
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and said aggrievedly:
"I have no idea……
My mother didn't tell me, and neither did my uncles. "
After finishing speaking, she added anxiously:
"But everything I said is true. Christine and her mother made a promise not to lie!"
Yang Jie smiled and touched Christine's long golden hair, comforting the little girl. Seeing that Ryan and the others were almost done interrogating, he greeted:
"Akainu, come on."
"Switchblade, you continue."
Akainu ordered, then turned around and walked to Yang Jie and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Yang Jie told Ryan his conjecture and then asked him what he thought.
"This is impossible."
Ryan chuckled after hearing this, and then explained:
"Caesar is almost seventy this year. If this is really his child, then he must have had this little girl when he was in his sixties.
For an old man in his sixties, whether he can stand up and stuff it in is a question. "
For Caesar, Ryan, a former Lone Star officer, had no respect at all. Instead, he made a joke about Caesar, and then continued to explain:
"Besides, Caesar was childless and there were rumors outside that he was sterile."
Yang Jie nodded.
“So, this little girl cannot be Caesar’s child.
But Wrench, you're right about one thing. "
Ryan smiled and looked at Christine in Yang Jie's arms, and then said:
"The person who can be escorted by Caesar's Shadow is still so young, which means that this little girl must have a good background."
"Akainu, there's a situation."
As soon as Ryan finished speaking, Elena's voice rang in his ears:
"The defense in Dax Town seems to have been assembled and is now slowly heading towards you.
They're moving very carefully. You still have some time to get out, but you have to do it quickly. "
