On December 10, Cinderella was already full of sorrow. [No Popup Novel Network]
Philmino hid in a dry well until it was dark, and he dared not run out until he couldn't hear anything outside.
Three years ago, he was just a scout in White Wolf Castle, and he was a good man, but he was just a small captain in the army. Later, he was fortunate to be valued by Chapel and became an aide to Chapel. Later, after Chapel started to follow Dean, of course, he joined Chaane with Dean's forces.
At one time, he thought that he would continue to work in his field. His boss would definitely be the general who led the army directly, and he would continue to be an adjunct to Chapel. He was not dissatisfied with it, and Chapel had always been pretty good to him.
But then, Chapul did not become a general, became the chief logistics officer, and began to manage the secret network of White Wolf Castle. He also ended his lieutenant career.
As Chappel's confidant, coupled with good skills, Firmino became an agent of the White Wolf Fortress Intelligence Network, which had just been established at that time and was basically nothing.
He was transferred to a secret agent.
After working for a while, he found that he seemed quite suitable for the job. In the following year, the scout came from, and he became a gold medal detective in Chapel's hands.
As a gold detective, he was given a task when the situation of Schindler changed drastically some time ago-dive into Hindrela and collect all the available information in this city And pass on the information.
Yesterday, Philmino, with a keen sense of smell, was one of the first people in the city to notice that Governor Conley was about to make a big move. Before the Holocaust began, he quickly dispatched his men to pass a message to Dane. At the same time, he lurked, intending to further understand the information.
But who knows, luck is so bad?
On the tenth, this is the second day of the Holocaust. Governor Conley's frenzied action continues. In the past two days, he has seen too many corpses.
He felt that he was hiding well. A small businessman who followed a humble chamber of commerce to come to the metropolis of Hindrera to do business would not get too much attention. But luck was unfortunate. The Chamber of Commerce had several guards, who had served in the army during the Bernie era.
He dared to swear as his "Gold Medal Agent" that the guards who ate meals in the chamber of commerce would never have anything to do with the so-called "Bernier Residual Forces". Those people really only served as soldiers in the past, but later became soldiers. They relied on a martial arts to eat and dine, and in the chats on weekdays, they did not show half of their nostalgia for their old master.
But it was only for the reason of 'being once a soldier of Bernier' that they were mad by the soldiers of Governor Conley as the so-called 'residual forces'.
At noon today, two squads of fully armed soldiers broke into the chamber of commerce. Without saying a word, he lifted his crossbow and shot at the sight. Firmino looked at the guards and was shot into a hedgehog in the first sight. Then, those soldiers with knives started killing people everywhere. There is no rule, and no matter what the identity of the killer is, any living person is their target in this house where ‘Bernier ’s Residual Forces’ had been hidden.
With Firmino's skill, of course he could kill a few soldiers and then go away. However, the whole city is almost the same situation, he dare to kill any soldier at this time, he will face the hunt of the whole city.
On the left and right measures, he did not dare to do so, escaped from the chamber of commerce, and found a dry well outside and hid in until he was too dark before he dared to show his head.
When he came out, he could be regarded as a well-decorated chamber of commerce. It had become a mess. The furniture was knocked over and there were knife marks and blood stains on the walls.
But, very strangely, he didn't see any corpses.
This is different from what he expected. He didn't believe that under the urgency of those soldiers and so many targets to be cleared, there were still people who worked hard to clean up the scene and clean up the bodies? In fact, according to his earlier judgment, the corpses of the chamber's buddies, guards, and small businessmen should be everywhere. Those corpses should not be cleaned unless they are stink.
The tall Philino was cautious, exposing his head from the window of the chamber of commerce, looking out.
Although the place where he is located is not the city center of Cinderella, it can be regarded as a prosperous place. But now, there is not even a light on the outside. It is dark and black, and a cold winter wind blows, letting people feel the coolness, and then it is very obvious and acrid. The smell, it feels almost hairy.
In the atmosphere of horror, Philmino did not have much to worry about. He can't be counted as someone who had been killed from the blood of the corpse mountains. When he was a scout, he was accompanied by Chapel in the battle on the Eastern Wasteland and was born and died. He smelled so much.
Looking around, there were really no figures, and he simply turned out of the room.
There were many bloodstains on the street, and many bloodstains had not even dried up, apparently not long after the killing.
But again, he had never seen a body on the street.
This strange phenomenon made him feel very strange and alert.
Too abnormal!
He stood in the middle of the street, pondered for a moment, found a building with a relatively high floor, and rolled over.
Standing on the top floor, his vision widened, and he looked around.
At this point in time, the brightly lit city was dead. Except for the location of the city's central palace and the lights, everything else was dark.
Philmino scratched his head a bit. Rao is such a gold-line agent who has been in the front-line intelligence work for almost a year and is still a seasoned gold medal agent. At this time, I do n’t know where to start and continue to touch. Clear situation.
In this city, it is not just him who belongs to the intelligence network of White Wolf Castle. It is estimated that there are no less than twenty intelligence personnel who he knows and has contact with each other. Just yesterday, when the massacre just started, before the city became so miserable, their intelligence personnel had contacted them in some specific ways, and roughly estimated the people involved in the massacre. 50,000-that's the population of almost half of the city!
But now it seems that the situation is not just that simple. If only half of the city's people were killed, then there should be 50,000 or 60,000 people in Cinderella. Where have those people gone? Why didn't you cry? You know, since he has been hiding in the dry well for half a day, the cries of the city, the light from the flames, and even some explosion sounds have never been cut off, and it only slowly became smaller and stopped until dusk. .
It's really clueless and can't figure out the situation. He sat on the roof and figured out, and decided to leave for the palace near the city center.
Firmino didn't know exactly what would be near the palace, nor did he know exactly what to look for. However, from the time of looking at the roof, it seems that the rest of the city should not be very different from the neighborhood where he is located. Roughly, it is difficult to detect the results. It's better to try your luck in the center of the city.
Don't say, he did see something.
After walking carefully in the quiet city for a while, only a few hundred meters away from the central palace of Cinderella, he could no longer move forward. The street in front was blocked by two teams of soldiers. The soldiers carried weapons and guarded the way forward under the torches beside the road.
Although he hasn't tried it yet, Philmino is sure, as long as he dares to show up under the light of the torch, he doesn't need to say a word. Those soldiers who see a living person will definitely pick up blood in their hands Weapon to his body.
As for the hard break ... Although he is relatively confident in his skill, he has not yet confidently, and can rely on a small dagger attached to his waist to glance at the dozen or twenty full corpses in front of him. Armed soldier.
He twitched his nose and his eyes fell on the room next to him.
After a while, soldiers guarding the block seemed to hear the sound of cats or mice passing by. Except for two complaints, they did not attract more attention.
There was a smile on the corner of Firmino's mouth after bypassing the guarded soldiers from the roof. It was just that his mouth had just opened, and he was almost vomited with a thick stench from the surface.
"Where does it taste so strong? Is it possible that the corpses in the city have been gathered here?" He complained this way, but the thought flashed in his mind, but he was caught by his keenness. come back.
He realized that his casual complaint was likely to be true.
Those disappearing bodies ...
However, this is just a guess. Firmino decided to move on and see if he was as expected.
This time, he didn't even need to find the direction, he went in the direction guided by his own sense of smell.
After climbing over two more defense zones guarded by soldiers, he finally found the source of the smell.
"I ... my God!"
Fillino, looking out of the window on the second floor of a house on the street, was stunned by the scene he saw in his eyes!
Corpses! All corpses! Stacked corpses!
Sure enough, as he had expected before, all the dead bodies in the city were gathered. In front of his eyes, it should have been the clean corner of the exterior wall of the Cinderella Palace. However, since weekdays, many soldiers have guarded the corners, and no one is allowed to come near. But at this moment, they are all humans. Dead body.
The corpses were already piled close to the height of the palace's outer wall, and not only this one had piled up the corpses, looking left and right, along the edge of the palace's outer wall, the piled corpse mountains could not even see the end. !!
He didn't know why Governor Conley had gathered all these corpses. This should almost be the population of the city!
Of course, in a city as large as Cinderella, it's impossible to really kill everyone. Like him Philmino, did he escape? However, there are certainly very few who can survive in this massacre. Looking at the scale of the corpse accumulation, even though he only saw this small corner, he only needed to make an estimate based on the situation he saw now, and he could make a general judgment in his heart.
According to the length of the exterior wall of the Cinderella Palace, if there is such a degree of corpse accumulation everywhere in the entire exterior wall, the number will be almost 100,000.
This means that Conley has slaughtered the entire city by himself!
Philmino took a breath and felt numb all over. His insights are not uncommon, but it is the first time that he has seen so many corpses stacked together!
Although, from a long distance, he could not see the specific appearance of any corpse, but he could imagine how heavy the accumulated wrongdoings would be on the countless corpses?
This must be the most terrifying scene he has ever seen in this life.
Frightened for a few minutes, he slowly calmed down.
After restoring his calm mind and starting to think again, his deep doubt filled his heart. In his impression, killing 100,000 people in the city, this is not a small siege ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Even if these 100,000 people are all defenseless civilians, but they are human, have legs and can run Will hide. Moreover, not all civilians are defenseless. For example, the guards of the chamber of commerce he had previously hidden were holding swords in their hands.
Five thousand people, killing so many people in two days? It's incredible.
And, even if killed, how can so many corpses be transported from all parts of the city to the corners of the palace in these two days? This is also a problem that Firmino couldn't figure out.
However, these are just 'small' issues. For him, the more important thing is to figure out why Conley did this? What good would it do for him?
He realized that this was a very important piece of information, and figuring it out was definitely a great achievement. Moreover, even if no mention of credit is made, it is a matter of great accomplishment for intelligence personnel like him to just unlock such a shocking secret.
He dispelled the fear that had shrouded in his heart, and intended to start further investigation.
Still a two-in-one chapter. (To be continued.)
