Chapter 58: None can escape (overhaul)

No matter how powerful the tower man is, he is still flesh and blood, and he can't compete with the sharp metal. Auston draws out the blood-stained sharp knife and jumps off the big man's shoulder. Behind him, the big man falls to the ground, trickling blood from the wound on his temple Out everywhere. After landing, Auston ran to Ryan's side without any hesitation, "The police received news from the informant, Starscream recruited people, and selected them to test their abilities on a prosperous planet, and the successful ones were recruited as their new members. I have asked the station to activate the emergency plan, and the police have also made arrangements."

Starscream is the most wanted pirate gang in the Empire, and Admiral Tolkien's Legion of Glory has been encircling it many times, but they are always inexhaustible. After the siege once, after three or five years, they made a comeback, as if the pirates who inherited Starscream's will cut one crop after another like a leek. The encirclement and suppression of the Imperial Legion instead made the legend of Starscream. The government of the Starscream Empire is still in a passive state and can do nothing. The best way is to go deep into the interior of Starscream to disintegrate it.

Helpless to say, what makes the government a headache is that every time Starscream recruits new recruits, there is always a lot of noise. They are in the dark, the police and the military are in the open, they often make a lot of arrangements, but they find that the location of Starscream recruiting new recruits is placed. Elsewhere, it was only when the incident happened that it was discovered that civilians had been killed and injured.

The same is true this time, who would have thought that the Starscream Pirates would target the second-level planet Belland, as well as the densely populated bus station. There is no more to say about the accountability after the event, etc. Lane and Auston have already been involved, and what they have to do is to solve the immediate trouble.

As the political and cultural center of a planet, Beiland Capital Bus Station has a perfect plan for responding to emergencies. When Auston exposed his identity and called for monitoring, he asked the station chief and the chief of the security department to urgently activate the plan. Outside the crowd screaming and fleeing, dozens of robots more than two meters high walked in at various entrances of the station. The robots shouted: "Don't panic, don't mess up, stand where you are, stand where you are."

In the constant repetition, some people in the frightened crowd gradually stopped moving along with the robot's voice. The calm mood was contagious, and more and more people stood still. Although there were still people screaming and sobbing uncontrollably, But it is much better than before. The hard shells of the armed robots give people strength and conviction. Their arms are extended, and when they are unfolded, they are more than six meters long, and they can hold more than 20 people at one time and retreat at the same time.

The police and the dazed stationed police also reflected that, with Auston's prior arrangement, they could no longer take care of the interstellar traffickers. They organized to start evacuating the crowd, and reducing civilian casualties was the key.

But there are too many people at the capital bus station, and it is not possible to evacuate the panicked and weak passengers in a short period of time.

Located in the middle of the station, Ryan was holding the baby and fighting back to back with Auston. With helpers, several station robots with only basic force were quickly eliminated. Ryan turned his attention to the big boy standing against the wall. The smile on his face froze, and he lost his composure. Zhang Huang looked left and right at a loss, looking for a way to escape.

"There is a child in that person's suitcase." Ryan tapped the big boy in the distance with his chin. There was always a black suitcase at his feet, and there must be children in it.

Allston shouted: "Lane!"

"Huh?" Ryan could hear the seriousness and seriousness in Auston's voice.

Auston looked at the men and women who were surrounded by police in the distance, but were still fearless and slashed with knives. He said, "Those people are not pirates."

Ryan looked over, and his heart sank. Auston was right. Those people were not pirates. They were ordinary people who took up weapons and slashed people with no rules. They were a group of incompetent resistance, so they sacrificed their ideals and beliefs with blood. extremists, because they shouted the slogans "Freedom, Equality, Kindness".

"That knife?" In order to avoid civilian casualties, Ryan raised the dagger and was about to throw it out, but found that there was something wrong with the men and women holding the knives.

In the eyes of Ryan and Auston, the cowardly woman with the **** long knife smiled miserably. She threw the knife away. The long knife hit the ground without making a sound of metal hitting the ground. The police shouted "put down your weapons and surrender" In the voice, she took out a small table knife from her bosom and cut it towards her throat, puff, blood splashed everywhere.

In the sound of blood splashing, the cowardly woman used her life to shout the final slogan, "Marriage is suitable for human nature, we want freedom and equality!"

The woman's death ignited the nerves of this group of people. They threw away the blood-stained knives, took out a table knife or a utility knife or scissors from their arms, and stabbed them towards their aorta. Only the man in the lead charged with a knife and rushed towards the surrounding police. He let out a piercing roar, "Wake up, ignorant people, we are not animals, we should have the freedom to marry!" In the sound of gunfire , the man's voice was drowned out by the screams of the uneasy crowd.

chug-

Bellander's police took action and shot the people who made the **** terror at the right time. The viscous blood flowed out of the bullet holes, and the eyes that could not be closed after death stared at the sky, but what was ushered in was endless. dark.

On the ground, the hot blood splattered from the blood vessels of these people merged into the totem that symbolized freedom that was drawn at an unknown time.

Light, freedom, and equality, do we really have to fight for it in such an extreme and tragic way?

A strong sense of shock and powerlessness appeared in Ryan's heart. He opened his mouth to say something, but found that all his words had turned pale at this moment.

A familiar figure was moving not far away, Ryan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and after putting the baby into Auston's hands, he sprinted forward, but soon after he reached Evan's back, this abominable interstellar trafficker had already changed. Dressed up, with a beard attached to his faceless face, he tried to dash out of the station among the crowd of people who were running away. He didn't expect Ryan's sudden appearance at all, but he, who has been in the business of licking blood all year round, instinctively fell forward and avoided Ryan's attack.

Ryan raised his eyebrows, and his attack was avoided by an ordinary person with little force. But if you can hide once, there will be no second time. Ryan will not give Evan this chance.

puff-

The blade pierced through the body, and the famous interstellar trafficker "musician" Evan was nailed to the ground by Ryan. The handle of the dagger almost sank into his body, and Evan lay on the ground and spit out blood.

A policeman came over and looked at Ryan eagerly, "Put down your weapon and raise your hand."

Ryan stood up, shook off the blood on his hands, and said lightly, "The human trafficker 'Musician' Evan is on the ground."

The little policeman, who had experienced major incidents not long after his career, widened his eyes nervously, looked at Ryan in disbelief, and then lowered his head to look at Evan, which was completely different from the wanted order in his mind. With a move in his heart, he resolutely drew his gun and pointed it in Lane's direction. The little policeman's brain was wide open. Could it be that Evan thief shouted to catch the thief, injured a civilian and pretended to be Evan, and then took the opportunity to run away?

The place where the gun was aimed was empty, and the man who had no murderous intent after stabbing someone just now was gone. The little policeman looked up in annoyance, and there was still the figure of that person.

"Leader, I saw a person suspected of Evan." The little policeman reported his findings to the leader on the walkie-talkie.

The leader's voice came from the walkie-talkie inserted into the ear canal, "Where?"

"Across the wicket JPK30, but Evan has run away, civilians are injured and need rescue."

"Wait."

Not long after the little policeman waited, the leader hurried over with a few people and the doctor. The sweaty leader gasped and asked, "Where are the people?"

"Evan has already run away, but I remember what he was wearing. It was a man with a mask on his face." The little policeman said firmly.

The doctor had already given first aid to the man who fell on the ground. When he turned the man over, he was shocked to find that the dagger penetrated the body and nailed the man to the marble floor. There was no way to rescue him simply.

"Sir." The doctor communicated with the injured man in a gentle voice. The man had a lot of blood on his face and looked very hideous, "Hey..."

The doctor saw something raised on the man's face, which seemed to fall off at any time. Worried that these things would affect the breathing of the injured person, he stretched out his hand to remove it... Half of the human/skin/mask was peeled off, revealing that it was the same as the reward order. The face, this talent is "musician" Evan, the notorious interstellar trafficker.

Looking at the seriously injured trafficker, the police chief suddenly raised his hand and gave himself a slap, this time with such force that his head was heavily tilted to one side.

Little policeman: "Leadership!"

The police chief grinned, and the pain calmed him, "What are you doing, not helping to evacuate the crowd." It was he who had a problem with his decision-making. He received a call that the trafficker "Evan" brought people to arrest him at the bus station. Ignoring Starscream's new recruiting activities, neglecting that this group of mad pirates can do anything, they will not be concerned that a prosperous city is the capital of a secondary planet!

After listening to the leader's instructions, the little policeman hurried to help his colleagues evacuate the crowd. He inadvertently looked up and saw the surrounded totem scene, and saw the colleague investigating the scene holding four or five long knives in one hand. That colleague from the Criminal Investigation Department is so powerful? He licked his dry lips and continued to look in that direction. He was surprised to find that it wasn't that his colleagues were powerful, but that those knives were fake and not heavy enough.

With the participation of the police, it is not difficult to catch other people in the human trafficker gang along his line. Lane turned around, and Auston, who was holding the child, was nowhere in sight. After a brief panic, a thought flashed in his mind. He went to the toilet, and sure enough, he found Auston in the men's room. A big boy holding a black suitcase. The big boy was cornered and had nowhere to escape. He could only watch the people besieging him vigilantly like a small beast trapped in a cage, and shouted sternly, "Kill me, you will never know that you will be kidnapped. Where are those children!"

Ryan glanced at the black suitcase.

The big boy said, "Just one, there are other children." He rolled his eyes and decided to play the emotional card, his posture softened, and looked at Ryan and Auston pitifully, "I am a determined to be a pirate. Man, but the conscience of being a human is still there, and I didn't do anything about secret abduction. I know that Starscream's test is to secretly take away the children. I also wrote down the appearance of all the children, and I will help them go home when I have the ability. Uh……"

He looked down at his chest and saw bright red blood flowing out from it. It turned out that his blood was so red.

Auston withdrew his gun, his indifferent voice unwavering, "Already know where the rest of the children are."

The big boy widened his eyes and said unwillingly, "Impossible!"

"Really," Lane said. He believed in Auston.

"Impossible, impossible..." The big boy muttered to himself, and before his life was about to dissipate, he asked anxiously, "How did you know that."

But in his eyes, there are only the backs of two people gradually receding.

Auston said that if he knew it, he must know it. The big boy who aims to be a pirate is better than others in mechanical transformation, but he is still too tender in other places, but Auston was caught in a few words. The whereabouts of the children, they are still in the station, waiting for the big boy and the old man, as well as the dwarf who peddled electronic cigarettes, and the strong man in the tower to transport them away.

This is Starscream's test for recruiting new recruits - quietly transporting the child out of the Belland capital. For this test, Starscream specially contacted the human trafficker Evan to get the supply. In order to increase the difficulty, Starscream specially reminded Evan to find the children on the cruise ship. Once the parents called the police, the police would operate within half an hour.

Most of the tests were successful, except for the participation of Ryan and Auston.

And with plans never keeping up, Starscream certainly didn't expect extremists to swear blood in the station.

The children found it, and Ryan and Auston also stopped the conspiracy of the pirate group. The two of them did not go to the front of the stage and left with the baby directly. It took a while for them to learn that there were a total of Two were killed by pirates, three suffered serious injuries and lost blood, and more than 100 people were injured due to stampede and other reasons.

With Allston and Lane in control, the danger of pirates is reduced to a minimum. Because of Auston's advance control, it is now chaotic and orderly. After looking around and finding that there is no major incident, Ryan and Auston leave quietly, hiding their merits and fame. They hold the baby and see Sta, who is waiting outside the station. keff.

"The baby has been fed medicine, so he has been sleeping abnormally. You'd better take the baby to the hospital for a good check." When Auston handed the baby to Herman, he did not forget to instruct him.

When the child was lost and found, Graydon and Herman were overjoyed, hugging the child and thanking him again and again. Ryan asked them not to thank them, and take the child to the hospital quickly, "Don't park the car that way in the future."

"Definitely, never again." Graydon promised again and again.

If the bad guys want to make a move, it's fine in the downtown area. They don't need to care about the location at all. The exhortation is just to let Graydon and Herman relax a little bit.

Watching Starkoff leave, Ryan and Auston walked to the Blue Moonlight bar that they had made an appointment with. They agreed to meet at 9:30 there. Now it's not a few minutes away from 9:30.

"Caught Evan," Auston said. "Aren't you going to collect the bonus?"

"No." Ryan shook his head, Auston exposed his identity and checked the surveillance. The police must know that the Imperial Admiral General Dalton was here. If he went to collect the bounty, let people know that Auston's companions hunted Evan for the purpose of What a bad bonus. "Let's go, let's go from that alley to the Blue Moonlight Bar in 20 minutes, and let Fan Yanting wait there." Lane took the lead and walked forward.

With a smile on his face under the black mask, Auston stepped forward and rushed to Ryan's side, held Ryan's hand, and continued to walk forward pretending not to care. Ryan looked at the hands of the two people and laughed.

There are various themed bars on the bar street, some of which sell feelings and are classical and retro; some are full of sweetness and are romantic and dreamy; some are resident singers and bands who send songs and follow the style of music festivals; some are decorated plainly. Wuhua, specializing in selling drinks... The Blue Moonlight Bar is the last one. On the bare wall outside the door, there are three big characters written in a straight line - Blue Moonlight, monotonous and almost boring, when people approach, the door of the bar opens automatically, Exposing the interior environment that is nothing new inside.

There is a bar in the middle. There are many people sitting around the bar. Almost everyone has a glass of Belland's cold beer. The craft beer made from the hops grown on the ice field has a high degree of concentration. The taste is bitter and sweet, with a strong The aroma of barley, people who don't have much alcohol, just pour it in one cup, this kind of cold beer is also called fragmented wine.

After a simple blending, it can show different flavors. However, the Bellanders who live in the cold place like the mellowness and excitement of cold beer. After drinking several glasses, they just blush and their tongues are not big.

Lane and Auston found Fan Luanting in the corner of the Blue Moonlight Bar, who was staring at the holographic projection. The holographic projection was playing a clip of Connor's first interview with the news media since he became famous. The interviews that Na accepted were all in the form of voice communication, and never appeared in front of the public with their true face.

Apart from some fans who have attended a small book signing, few people know what the well-known Internet writer Connor looks like.

"Connor wrote in the latest chapter that Emperor Qin Feng Anderson played the piano for his beloved. There is no record in all official documents that the emperor can play the piano. Do you have historical evidence or did you just make it up?" The bald male host people ask questions.

Connor said with a smile: "Emperor Qin Feng is a real person and a hero of our empire. How can I make up a character based on him? Of course there is a basis. I also want to thank my cousin who gave him I bought a lot of books, and one of them mentioned that the emperor could play the piano, so I used it in the text, and that’s why everyone sees this paragraph.”

Anyone who knows Connor knows that he doesn't usually smile that much, and the smile in the interview is very fake, like wearing a plaster mask, a rigid, soulless smile.

The host raised his eyebrows, and he asked, "Unofficial History?"

"No, it's a memoir written by a staff member of the President's Office 700 years ago. I checked a niche book, and it has sold more than 1,000 copies since it was published. Luckily, my cousin became this one. One of more than 1,000 people, so that I know a more real Emperor Qin Feng."

"Thank you Connor's cousin." The host said to the camera as if he was looking at Ryan: "If it wasn't for my cousin, we wouldn't be able to see such a real and interesting side of the emperor. The iron-blooded president of the empire turned out to be When there is such tenderness, playing the piano for the lover, the war is raging outside the window, and the Zerg army is about to invade. It is not yet known whether human beings can hold the final front. In this environment, the emperor played "To Lover", a strong contrast. , it will be unforgettable for a long time after reading.”

Ryan, who was seated, was unable to spit when he heard this. He had just played the piano for Auston not long ago, and he played the intro to "Blue Danube" in pieces, which Auston would appreciate.

Ryan wanted to speak and interrupted the video that Fan Luanting was playing, but was stopped by Auston because Auston also watched it. Ryan stared at the desktop boredly, not wanting to watch the video, but the sound kept entering his ears.

The host asked a sharp question, "Did Connor think that he would receive so much opposition when he wrote "Song of the Beacon", I did a lot of homework before interviewing you, and I went to the novel's website to scroll down Looking at the comments, I found a lot of comments criticizing you, some of which were so extreme that I couldn't help frowning even a passerby. How did you deal with it?"

"I used to be very glass-hearted. I was saddened by the comments of readers. I could think about a few words in my heart for a long time, reflecting on what I did not do well, what made the readers dissatisfied, and even had the idea of ​​giving up several times. It's my cousin. Listen to my nagging, spit bitterness, support me and don't give up." Connor's smile was a little sincere, "Afterwards, I probably encountered more, and accepted the well-intentioned criticism. I chose to ignore them. They can't get into my eyes. You said that "Song of the Beacon Fire" was insulting high-rise buildings. That's how I dealt with it. In fact, I don't understand very much. Emperor Qin Feng Anderson is our hero, if not Where did his various governance behaviors more than 700 years ago come from our present beautiful life, and why should he overthrow his credits and achievements?"

Connor threw the question to the host, and the host's eyes changed instantly. Obviously, this question was not in the template that was discussed at the beginning.

The host rounded up the field, slyly poking haha, "Because our current society is free and civilized, anything can be brought up. Everyone must be very curious to know how such an excellent Conor succeeded, we will ask now. Of course. , and there are questions that everyone is very interested in, what does Connor's ideal lover look like?"

Connor smiled, and he said lightly: "I am a patient with phi3 element deficiency."

The smile on the host's face couldn't be hung, and the video of the interview was interrupted. I don't know if there is still another or Fan Luanting kept this part.

Anyway, where there was Connor, Fan Yanting couldn't see other people. After the video was over, he found that the general and Ryan were sitting beside him, and said in surprise, "When did you come?"

"Just arrived." Ryan thought for a while and said, "Watch the video with you for a while."

"Oh." Fan Yanting scratched his head embarrassedly, and after watching the video for a while, it must not be a while, "What do you want to eat? Would you like to try Bayland's craft beer, it tastes very pure and is brought from the river. The natural ice cubes are so delicious that you can't drink them anywhere else."

"No need." Auston looked cute after drinking, but it's enough to drink some low-alcohol beer. After drinking the craft beer, you pour it out as soon as you drink it. When you go back, you will carry Auston and leave .

Fan Yanting didn't insist, "Then let's have some honey water. It tastes good too." He called the waiter and ordered two glasses of honey water. The difference, sure enough, alcoholism and sweetness are the two major hobbies of the Baylanders.

This kind of honey water basically says goodbye to the menu of Lane and Auston, who are not people who like too sweet. Just as he was about to talk about what he had seen and heard after the separation, the light screen in the store was interspersed with news, reporting what happened in the Bayland bus station. The scene on the screen was chaotic, with blood and injured people everywhere, and Ryan, Ao. Stone left completely different. The background of the live reporter's broadcast was filled with the shouts of adults, the cries of children, and the banging of various instruments... Suddenly, the black body bag slowly disappeared from the screen under the **** of the police. I don't know. Either the perpetrator or the victim.

The originally lively bar quieted down. When I heard that someone had lost blood and was injured at the scene, and the hospital was in urgent need of type B blood, someone in the bar put down the wine glass and left the bar after talking to a friend. It was a person who was rushing to the hospital to donate blood. .

Such a big event happened at the bus station, but the bar street not far from it did not hear any movement.

Ryan raised his eyebrows. The news magnified the situation at the station. What was the purpose of doing this?

The screen changed and started to replay the surveillance video at the time of the incident. I saw a reserve pirate crushing a person's head (fuzzy processing) and controlling the station service robot to attack. Sensitive speed action... I also saw extremists with blurred faces shouting vague slogans and slashing their necks to commit suicide, and seeing the blood that was trampled around them in a mess, similar to some kind of sacrificial totem... In the picture The sudden appearance of Ryan's sassy figure is the picture of him pinning the "musician" Evan to the ground neatly.

Fan Yanting's eyes widened, his eyes moved back and forth, on the screen for a while, and on Ryan for a while. And Ryan, silently took off his clothes, flipped his sleeves, and put it on. Fortunately, the clothes could be worn on both sides. He messed up his hair and took off his mask. In this way, he was completely different from the people in the news. .

"You?" Fan Yanting asked vaguely.

Ryan nodded, "Yes."

As the news continued, the voiceover said: "The notorious human trafficker Evan has been captured. The police learned about the trafficker's network through him, and quickly deployed control. More than ten planets acted at the same time, destroying a huge trafficker across two star domains. The population gang rescued more than 30 infants and young children, and dozens of men and women with the gene sequence X were rescued at the same time. If the police did not arrive in time, they would have ended up in the hands of pirates." The news of Evan's arrest was concealed. Can't stop, the police used extraordinary action to quickly eliminate the gang of human traffickers, and the efficiency was fast, setting a historical record.

Fan Yanting's wide eyes never got smaller. He pressed his voice and asked, "General, Ryan, didn't you come to Bayland on a cruise ship because of some secret operation?" Also great.

Ryan looked at Auston with a helpless smile on his face, "Trust me, everything was an accident." His original intention was just for five thousand stars.
