Everything happened so suddenly that Quins was not even mentally prepared. The brewery was burned, the warehouse was destroyed, his home was destroyed, his family was killed, and only one of the several brothels was left intact. In just one night
, Quins fell from heaven to hell, and his domestic slaves and prostitutes all sat trembling on the street. Like Quins, they became homeless overnight. For them,
, the brothel is their source of livelihood and a home that protects them from wind and rain.
That night, Nancheng was in chaos. Many people wearing masks rushed into the Cockroach District. These people were extremely vicious, killing everyone they saw and setting fires constantly. The Cockroach District is a famous slum in New Nicholas City, surrounded by low-income people.
It is surrounded by a short wall and is used to separate it from the city. Many people live in the Cockroach District, a slum area that houses one-third of the population of New Nicola City.
The fire continued to spread. The houses in the cockroach area were not made of bluestone. Most of them were made of wood and wrapped in cloth. These simple residences were thrown around and soon became a sea of fire. The people in the cockroach area were wailing, and some
Masked men rush out to kill people from time to time. In order to survive, they have no time to put out fires.
When the city patrol arrived, it was already a little too late. Not only were they unable to put out the fire, but the masked men had also disappeared. It was obvious that the masked men were hiding among the people in the Cockroach District, but how could they tell them apart with so many people?
come out?
Recently, Cao Yuan has just climbed up to the position of guerrilla general. Although it is far from his original position, he finally doesn't have to look at the fat cook's face every day. Who would have thought that within two days of his free time, something like this would happen to the Nancheng he was responsible for?
Big thing, the entire cockroach area was completely destroyed
. He is not a good-tempered person. When he came to the cockroach area, he saw rubble and scorched earth everywhere, and smoke was still coming out in many places. He immediately became angry. Yesterday, the governor just held a banquet at the manor, and today
If something like this happens, isn't this a slap in the face? If this matter is not handled well and the supervisor gets angry, Cao Yuan will be the first to be unlucky. These days, he has done enough as a cook. At this time
The city patrol soldiers surrounded the cockroach area, and the poor people were also gathered in the open space outside the south city. Since the city patrol soldiers maintained order, these poor people did not dare to cause trouble. Looking at the overwhelming crowd, Cao Yuan frowned.
We knew clearly that the troublemakers were hiding among these people, but there was nothing we could do about it.
There are many people in the slums, and it is not uncommon for them to not know each other. What should I do? I was having a headache when I saw several women running towards me in a panic surrounded by a man. When these people came closer, tears flowed down their faces.
Fortunately, there was a translator beside me, and after listening for a long time, I finally figured out what was going on.
Quines' name is not unfamiliar. He was the first to respond to a series of reform policies. Unexpectedly, his family business was completely destroyed. It seems that everything tonight was premeditated. Cao Yuan instinctively felt that tonight
What happened is just the beginning, there will be a series of conspiracies behind it.
But he was just a martial artist and was not good at investigating crimes. Quins and the prostitutes were still crying miserably. Cao Yuan was a little annoyed and waved his hand impatiently, "Stop crying in mourning.
The Supervisor will definitely make the decision for you in this matter, now shut up, if anyone dares to make any more noise, I will have your tongues cut out."
After Cao Yuan's threats, the prostitutes no longer dared to cry and just wiped away their tears silently. They were not pretending to be sad. If the Orientals didn't make the decision for them, they wouldn't know where they would live tomorrow. Cao Yuan didn't know
What should I do? Several torches lit up on the street ahead, and a handsome man led a few guards towards here. Cao Yuan's expression moved and he hurriedly greeted him, "General Sha, why are you here?"
Although Sha Diao's military position is not as good as that of Zhou Dingshan and Liu Guoneng, his status is not low. Everyone knows that Sha holds a powerful force in his hands. He is very powerful and has won the trust of the governor. Cao Yuan did not dare to be disrespectful at all, not to mention
There are many things that need to be done right now. As a greeting with a slight nod of the head, Sha Diao looked at the situation in the cockroach area for a moment, with a sad look on his face, "General Cao, the supervisor is already aware of the matter here. The matter is urgent. You and I
We must work together to resolve the matter as soon as possible.”
"General Sha is saying that, Cao also thinks so, but you are also aware of the current situation. You know that the troublemakers are hiding in the crowd, but you don't know how to distinguish them." When Cao Yuan said this, he looked sad.
Look.
Sha Diao touched his chin and thought carefully. Unlike Cao Yuan, he felt that this matter seemed complicated, but in fact it was very simple. All he had to do was find one of the murderers. These people were also acting under orders, and they were all insignificant people.
The key is to find out who planned this rebellion. There are many poor people in Cockroach District, and most of them are people who have had nothing to eat. Life was already difficult, but now they have no place to live, and their belongings have been burned. It can be said that they have little livelihood security.
Everything is gone. A group of people who cannot live anymore are either making trouble or robbing each other in order to find food and shelter. No matter what the outcome is, it will not be a good thing for the city of New Nicholas.
As expected, the opponent's plan was deep enough. He figured out the link and gave a few instructions to several translators. The translators then went to the poor people to spread the word, "Don't panic, everyone. The Governor of the East has issued an order. The city lord's palace will fund the reconstruction of Cockroach."
District, the city lord’s palace will be responsible for everyone’s food rations for the past month. You just need to wait with peace of mind. If necessary, you must cooperate with the city patrol soldiers to find the traitors who have rebelled."
Sha Diao’s arrangement is very necessary. In this way, it will at least ensure that the poor people in the cockroach area will not riot and nip the other party’s plan to cause trouble in the cradle. With the guarantee of the patrol soldiers, the poor people can feel relieved
Quite a few. As long as they have food and drink and can survive, who would risk beheading to cause trouble?
With no worries anymore, everyone relaxed and began to hate the thieves who were causing trouble in the cockroach area. Many people had already started to curse, "These damn people have to burn down just the place where they live. How dare they have any conscience?"
?If I find them, I will cut these beasts into pieces with a thousand knives."
After appeasing the refugees, the next thing Sha Diao did was to interrogate them. These interrogations were all random. Even so, the number of people was so large that such an interrogation was still a bit like finding a needle in a haystack. The Sha Diao didn't ask many questions, registering names, and then
I have asked more than 40 people repeatedly about my specific place of residence, and I haven’t stopped yet.
Cao Yuan had been standing beside him, feeling dizzy from Sha Diao's interrogation process. "General Sha, just ask, can this thing be useful?"
Sha Diao smiled faintly and ignored Cao Yuan's impatient expression, "Of course it will work. General Cao will just keep reading patiently and he will soon find out who the murderer is."
Sha Diao seems very confident. What he is good at is starting from small things. He is very patient when doing things. If he is impatient, he will often miss many useful details.
Around nine o'clock, five poor people were called to the makeshift interrogation room, five people, three women, and two young and strong men. These five people had been interrogated before. Although they walked into the interrogation room again, they
These people were still a little frightened and did not dare to breathe. The sand sculpture put away his momentum and did not add more pressure to them. "Don't be afraid, everyone. I called you in because I wanted to play a game with you. The rules of the game are very simple.
You all come from the same place of residence. Now, no one of you is allowed to speak, and you are not allowed to say a word. Point out the people you know. Remember, you must know each other and know each other's name. Let's start identifying them now.
.”
Sha Diao is very familiar with the situation in urban slums. The living conditions in each slum are urgent, the population is large, and most people are strangers, but most people living in the same area know each other. These poor people live together and often get together to brag.
, there must have been some communication. After listening to Sha Diao's request, the five people all breathed a sigh of relief. Starting from the first woman, this woman carefully looked at the people in front of her and pointed at them one by one, except for the young man at the end.
Strong man.
Immediately afterwards, the second woman began to identify. She pointed to the first woman, and then pointed down, but still did not point to the last young man. When the third woman came forward, before she could finish identifying, the last young man appeared.
The strong man was already sweating. Another young strong man also looked at him suspiciously, as if he was trying to think of who he was. Since they all lived in the same place, how could they not recognize him?
Slowly, Cao Yuan also figured out the way. He waited for the third woman to identify him. Without waiting for Sha Diao's instructions, he took two steps forward, slapped the last young and strong man to the ground, and then slapped him hard.
He kicked his feet twice and said, "Okay, tell me, who sent you here?"
The person next to him translated, but the young and strong man just lay on the ground and groaned, without answering a word. Cao Yuan wanted to hit him again. Sha Diao went to shake his head to signal for peace of mind. He lifted the young and strong man from the ground, and Sha Diao
Holding a sharp dagger, he gestured towards the man's lower body. The man's face changed with fright, and his legs trembled. He was not afraid of being beaten, but he was afraid of becoming a eunuch. Now he finally spoke,
"No, I said...I said...I am a disciple of Bishop Yagolov. What happened tonight was what Yagolov and others ordered us to do. We also acted under orders, please let it go.
Let’s do it.”
The sand sculpture wrinkled his nose and snorted coldly. These undead people were indeed up to something. "Continue talking, are the things about Quins also ordered by the Yagorovs?"
"Yes, Yagorov personally formulated the plan. According to the plan, we should retreat immediately after destroying the rats. Unexpectedly, the patrols came so quickly, and many people were directly blocked in the cockroach area.
"In desperation, we had no choice but to pretend to be residents of the cockroach area. Unexpectedly, we were discovered." The man's face was filled with sadness and indescribable depression. He never dreamed that Orientals would come up with such a method of identification.
Sha Diao naturally didn't know what others were thinking. Now that he had obtained the desired result, there was no need to waste time. He immediately ordered to mobilize some soldiers from the Ruifeng Battalion and headed towards the west city. Before the time passed, more than 300 soldiers from the Ruifeng Battalion arrived.
The church was surrounded by water, and at the same time, the Tyrell family of the great nobleman of New Nicholas, Renowski, was also heavily besieged.
There was chaos in the city of New Nicholas at night, and Yagorov was in a very good mood. He seemed to be able to see the scene of poor people gathering to make trouble. He stayed up all night in excitement, and when dawn was about to break, he was still in an excited state, watching
There was a hint of fish belly white on the horizon, and good news should have arrived, but the door was slammed open with such a violent noise that the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground and shattered.
A group of soldiers retaliated indiscriminately and tied up several believers. One of the believers wanted to resist, but was stabbed with several bloody holes. Seeing these ferocious soldiers, Yagorov tried to calm down.
, "You...what are you going to do...how can you kill living creatures in the holy place of the church? You are blaspheming God and will be punished."
Sha Diao had already figured out what Yagolov was shouting through a translator. He didn't take it seriously. He stepped in and stared at Yagolov with a sharp gaze. Just one glance made Yagolov feel like he was being taken over.
Feeling seen through, a chill ran down my back, "Mr. Bishop, do you have the nerve to say these words? Are you really spreading the gospel of God? If you still have mercy, will you attack the countless poor people in the Cockroach District?
?”
"You're talking nonsense." Yagorov couldn't help being frightened, but this kind of thing must not be admitted. He must be killed. Once he lets go, there will be no way to survive at all. Even if the Easterners don't
If he does anything, the angry poor people in the Cockroach District can drown him out, "What happened in the Cockroach District has nothing to do with me. If the overseer wants to move the church, just say so. Why bother looking for these reasons."
"I really can't shed tears until I see the coffin. Come here and tie up Yagolov. All the tortures in our secret hall will be tried on Yagolov." Two secret hall guards came forward, one on the left and one on the left.
The right general Yagolov was caught in the middle. Now Yagolov was finally a little scared, and he wanted to torture him. Isn't this a trick of subduing? "You are unreasonable. You are a trick of subjugation. If you spread the word, who will believe it?"
you?"
"Ha" the sand sculpture couldn't help but his eyes widened, and then he waved his hand at Yagolov's face. The force of his hand was so strong that Yagolov was blinded. "What's the point? This is the first time I heard it.
If someone wants to reason with the Intelligence Bureau, you are still the first one. Do you think you are a fool, or are you too smart?"
Most of Yagolov's anger and energy were immediately released. The other party was not a fool. In comparison, he was a fool, a complete fool. The sand sculpture sneered at the corner of his mouth and reached out to tap Yagolov's chest, "
You idiot, you really thought you could hide it from the enemy. To tell you the truth, the Superintendent had long expected that you people would not give up, but he didn’t expect it to happen so quickly."
"What?" At this moment, Yagolov was completely stunned. Did he really fall into the trap of the Orientals?
