Chapter 10 The Long Song of the Surge ([-])

"Hurry up, you did a good job today, I'll give you a day off tomorrow!"

Officer Filmin's gruff shouts amplified very loudly in the dull private transportation channel, with layers of echoes echoing repeatedly. The sobering board was constantly being consumed, and it actually became a bit more unpredictable and strange.

The eyes of the couriers present changed slightly after hearing this, but most of them had no strength and had no response to the officer's promise. However, a few young people straightened their bodies and lifted the boxes they were carrying again and again. .

But...will it really be so?

Kotoryanagi hid on the rafters where the officers and patrols could not search, and carried out an investigation mission that was quite dangerous when he saw the mission description for the sixth time, but it was extremely simple because of a certain person.

"Mr. Klein, don't do this!"

The girl whispered, her face flushed and she patted the detective who was hugging her behind her. Her long pointed ears were stained with a shy red glow due to the heat circulating in the black film's breath.

The girl doesn't mind if her slender waist is caught by Klein, but it would be too embarrassing for her to have her sensitive ear tips close to her and breathe out!

"I think... you should consider... whether you are bringing too much equipment!"

The great detective's slightly labored voice mixed with hot air echoed in Qinliu's ears. The girl was startled. Looking back, she found that the great detective was flying out a rope from the wrist of his other hand to hook the edge structure. With one hand showing blue veins, he grabbed Qinliu's waist. His whole body was tense because he had to maintain the wrestling position. It was no wonder that he couldn't control his breath.

But precisely because of Klein's efforts, their shadows have always subtly merged with the shadows of the entire chandelier, blocking the possible future that could be detected by the monitors due to the shaking of the shadows.

At this moment, Feilin was not only feeling warm and fragrant, but looking at his ferocious appearance with veins on his neck, if Qinliu was equipped with a few good things from Outcast, the detective would probably fall down nearly ten meters with her. rafters.

"..."

The girl guiltily touched many practical objects located in secret parts, and timidly apologized with a smile:

The location Klein chooses is different every time. Sometimes two people have to ambush in two places, one monitoring and patrolling and the other eavesdropping inside. Sometimes one needs to be a balancing tool for the other, grabbing the listener's body parts to prevent flaws. .

——Perhaps because the information and materials involved are becoming more and more important, Victoria’s emphasis on confidentiality has increased with the tide, and the patrol team’s inspection

The investigation route changes every day. If Klein hadn't done a lot of research in advance, just finding a suitable monitoring position would have made Qin Liu very anxious.

Even so, the positions that Feilin Maomao is looking for have to become more and more biased, and the movements and physical sacrifices required are gradually more and more incredible. Most of the time, let alone the charming atmosphere, just keeping the movements unchanged for a long time can Make the party who is the facilitator miserable!

In order to face various situations, Qin Liu's combat uniforms have become more and more diverse, and naturally the weight has also...

Anyway, looking at Klein's struggling appearance, Qin Liu not only didn't feel that he was cheated, but also thought that Mr. Klein's will and strength were as amazing.

God knows why outcast knows so much about prop making!

Klein didn't care about Qinliu's apology. Feilin just pointed at his ear, and Miss Vaifan immediately put her ear down knowingly.

"Boss, do we really want to give these infected people vacation?"

In the patrol, the well-equipped film soldiers chatted with the leader who led them.

They have patrolled here too many times, and the comfortable search environment has undoubtedly made the film crews relax their vigilance - being a soldier in Victoria earns hundreds of dollars a month, and you are not respected by others. What a waste of life!

"Hmph," the leader made a snort of disdain, raised his chin arrogantly towards a group of infected people who had long since lost strength due to heavy labor, and a voice came out of the corner of his mouth: "On vacation? What are you thinking about? Until that day Remember to bring all your equipment when the time comes. Let’s go celebrate for them. If you want to blame them, just blame them for getting infected!”

"[Victoria swears], boss, are you so cruel?"

The soldiers who were nearby blew an out-of-spirited whistle and responded angrily. Ordinary people may not understand this kind of thing, but for them, veteran veterans of Victoria, the words of the leader have already determined the fate of those who are working hard to deliver supplies. The outcome of the infected.

But so what?The leader's words still make sense - if you want to blame them, just blame them for being infected!

After all, in today's environment, even if a homeless man disappears in a slum, he will have to be found by someone who is interested. But infected people are a thing that grows again and again. If it is gone, it is gone. Who cares?

"This has nothing to do with being ruthless or not." The leader got angry when he saw the arrogant soldiers. The ceremonial sword in his hand banged on the soldier's armor: "You kid, please pay attention to me! Trouble comes from the mouth." Don’t you know? This matter was decided when we recruited them. Our patrols are not just to prevent those all-pervasive tabloid reporters..."

The patrolling guards' voices became smaller and smaller with the footsteps. The most dangerous moment had passed. The two eavesdroppers could finally change their stiff hiding postures for a while, but Xiaoqinliu still held her mouth tightly, her beautiful big eyes Yuanyuan opened her eyes, and a vast mist covered her purple pupils.

"what happened?"

Klein grabbed Qinliu's horns and called her back to her senses from her wandering mind.

The girl's legs went weak and her whole body collapsed. Klein had to hold her shoulders to stabilize little Qinliu's figure - they were still on the rafters at the moment. If Qinliu accidentally made any noise, he would be There will be a big problem if Victoria soldiers are attracted!

It would take him a lot of time to erode these idiots into obedient marionettes one by one, but it was a waste of time!

"They, they want to kill all the infected people!"

The girl cried out in a low voice, her frightened little face full of bewildered fear. She grabbed Klein's arm in desperation, and regardless of whether she was helping out at the detective branch on weekdays, she poured beans through a bamboo tube. All the news that arrived was told:

"The guards told the infected workers that they could take a holiday after finishing their work, but the soldiers prepared weapons to kill all the infected people! There are thousands of infected people here transporting supplies!"

She was right. This was the tenth warehouse that Klein brought Qin Liu to. All the warehouses they visited had a heavily armed officer guarding about fifty infected people with sallow faces and severe malnutrition. And this one There are twelve warehouses in the complex alone, and there are a large number of infected people outside who are being watched by patrols transporting goods!

Will all these infected people die?

Qin Liu couldn't imagine what kind of Shura field it would be!

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Klein patted the girl's back to comfort her, then frowned and led her away quickly, stepping on the connection between the beam and the wall, leaving the Victoria Supply Building Complex and running towards the detective agency branch in the town.

Chapter 11 The Long Song of the Surge ([-])

"What? Thousands of infected workers will be executed by the military?!"

Outcast listened in astonishment to the news Xiao Qinliu told her with a pale face, and the halo on her head jumped twice in shock.

Those are thousands of infected people, and their living lives are to be executed without any explanation? !

"There must be something wrong here. Isn't it transporting supplies? Why is it so secretive?!"

The pale-haired Sakota paced back and forth in Klein's office, with a rare cold sweat breaking out on his usually calm face.

Even a Tower of Babel operator like him, who had seen big scenes, could not accept that an unarmed infected person was killed so lightly.

What do they think of life?Can someone be executed just because they are infected, just like brushing off unpleasant dust from their clothes?

"

This is not impossible. "

Klein, who was sitting on a soft leather chair, squinted his eyes, his dark blue eyes thoughtful.

"Not impossible?"

Outcast looked at Klein, feeling ridiculous at the judgment of the famous Londinium detective: "How could such a thing happen? Aren't the nobles and businessmen in Victoria very wary of the military? How could they..."

"Why mess up the situation."

Klein looked at the dashing Sakota and mentally added a few things to her information sheet:

This is a person who looks cold and courageous, but is actually a little impulsive when things happen. If someone around him is in danger...

He glanced slightly at Qin Liu, who was also panicking: For example, this little Jenny, it is very likely that Outcast will save her at any cost, even if it costs Outcast's own name.

Several cold and shameless plans were easily devised along the lines of his thoughts. Jenny, Tower of Babel, Kelsey, Rutland...many of them would make Outcast obedient or follow his plans in ignorance. The vicious plot was randomly inserted into Klein's complete thoughts.

No, maybe it could be more interesting...

stop!

Klein gently touched the upper and lower canine teeth on his right side, and used the sound that rang in his skull to stop his thoughts that were running as fast as a wild horse. The cold and indifferent but extremely evil thoughts were firmly blocked from his mind. From [Qiao Lun] 】The infection made Detective Felin sigh a long time and return to normal, using a rare clear opening to explain to Qin Liu and outcast:

"Since the beginning of our cooperation, the two of us have followed me for many investigations - no, it should be said that with the changes in the situation in Kazdare and the return of the Tower of Babel to Alphonse, Victoria of Babel lost the support of the base camp. The office can no longer afford the increasingly high rent in Xiaoqiu Town, so you are already my employee, right?"

"..."

Outcast and Qinliu both lowered their eyes guiltily, not daring to look at Klein's blue eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts - the establishment of the Anti-Demon Alliance allowed Victoria to deliver a large amount of supplies to Ursus, either for free or after the defeat of Kazdel. Drawing from the spoils of war, regardless of whether the Ussans will admit it after winning the impossible victory, it is certain that a town like Xiaoqiu Town, which is uniquely located and can transfer a large amount of military supplies, will benefit from this.

The businessman who bought a house in Xiaoqiu Town probably never expected that one day he would make the biggest and richest business in his life because of an empire separated by hundreds of thousands of kilometers:

The prying eyes of various forces on transportation cities like Xiaoqiu Town have caused the housing prices of this little-known town to rise steadily. The residents living here were dumbfounded as they watched the housing prices increase dozens of times in one go.

Except for some houses in critical locations that were forcibly confiscated by the military, a large number of temporary or permanent homeowners in Xiaoqiu Town were freed from wealth.

"The lucky people from Xiaoqiu County" once became a scornful term used by surrounding towns for the residents of Xiaoqiu Town who sold their houses in the town and moved here - there is no need to infer how much jealousy or jealousy there is in it.

The poor Victoria Office of Babel settled in Hill Town. At that time, for unknown purposes, Babel established offices in various well-known countries in Terra, and many operators stayed there for many years.

However, in this wave of the times that has left countless people dumbfounded, they have become not uncommon victims. Operators who have not purchased real estate quickly find that their funds are stretched thin, and it is very likely that even if they work 24 hours a day in Xiaoqiu Town Even though he was working hard, he couldn't afford the rent to rent a house and convert it into an office.

outcast touched the gun in his hand and thought for a long time, then looked at the ignorant Xiaoqinliu, sighed, and rejected the bad habits developed during the mercenary battle in the Tower of Babel. He did not use Source Stone to etch bullets or grease his face. The film landlord made the final decision.

Fortunately, things took a turn for the worse. The great detective from Londinium, Crane Conan Moriarty, chased the behind-the-scenes aura surrounding Victoria and rushed to Hill Town. He bought the Tower of Babel office with the landlord's nodding compliments. .

——Neither Outcast nor Qinliu knew how much it cost, but from the landlord who left Xiaoqiu Town happily the next day and disappeared directly, this lecherous and greasy creature stared at Xiaoqin with a lustful look every time he came. Fatty Liu’s film must have made enough money to satisfy his greedy appetite.

Although Klein actually didn’t spend a penny.

But this does not change the outcome of the duo in the office. One of them is Sakota, who is increasingly reluctant to live in Kazdare with the rise of Sakaz, and the other is a young and immature girl who has not been exposed to anything. , there are few large funding sources to be found in Victoria.

What's worse is that following Lysandral's declaration of rescue when the First Empire of Cazidel was established, almost all medical operators ran back to the Tower of Babel to report on their work with doubts. They didn't even have enough doctors and medical supplies!

Worrying about maintaining contact with the Tower of Babel, the two people who did not want to leave recommended themselves to Klein and became two hardworking people working part-time as thugs, cooks, logistics, assistants, doctors, embroiderers, and repairmen under the great detective.

But at least they kept the Tower of Babel office in Victoria—even if it was just a small Victorian phrase carefully filled in in the corner of the Crane Detective Agency plaque.

The two generalists at least reduced a lot of troubles in Klein's life in Xiaoqiu Town. As a bonus, Detective Felin was willing to borrow the books from the bookshelf that filled an entire wall.

Show them, as well as the Victoria Londinium newspaper to which he has subscribed for many days.

I don't think two operators who care deeply about Kazdaele and the Tower of Babel would be more interested in his other collection of books.

They don't even care enough about Kazdaele's affairs. They want to take apart every word mentioned in the news about the Anti-Magic Alliance and think about it carefully. How can they have time to read other books?

Now that Klein is asking him, it’s no wonder he knows very little.

Chapter 12 The long song of the surging tide ([-])

"In fact, as long as you see "Victoria's Dark History" on the third row of the bookshelf, you can almost understand what I said when I said that judgment is not impossible."

Fortunately, Klein had no interest in catching others in pain and chasing them down. The reminder of what happened to Qin Liu and Outcast flashed by, and the topic quickly transitioned to this investigation:

"Sometime during Aslan's reign, there was a famine in the settlement of the Tara people who had cooperated with Drak and then surrendered to Aslan again. However, the Aslan people deliberately did not sign the food release agreement and watched helplessly as the Tara people Straining people to starve to death.”

!

Kotoryu watched in surprise as Klein recounted this unknown past. He was obviously a famous detective in Londinium, but he was familiar with the dark history of Aslan, the direct controller of Londinium. As a great detective, he had a deep understanding of the secrets. Curiosity and disdain for tradition are palpable.

"At that time, the Tara people were still well-known in Terra. The actions that accompanied Drak in raising the flag against Aslan, the victor of the Victorian Civil War, attracted widespread sympathy in most countries. It was learned that the Tara people were facing famine and Aslan After almost deliberately signing a contract to starve a large number of Tara people to death, Colombia, which transformed from the pioneer land of Victoria into an independent country, prepared some food for the Tara people out of sympathy..."

The corners of Klein's lips curled up, and he sarcastically recounted Aslan's indelible past, using cruel and cruel details to nakedly break the so-called Victorian glory and protection of Aslan's kings - how ridiculous!On the one hand, we shouted to the vassals that we protected Victoria, and on the other hand, we signed the contract and starved to death the Tara people who had been recognized as part of Victoria.

Maybe when the next Victoria Aslan comes to power, he will say to the people of Tara with sympathy that it was the fault of the previous generation of King Aslan that you all starved to death, and it should not be spread to the next generation. Return to Victoria. Well, I will promise to treat the people of Tara well.

Then he threw the bewitched Tara people gracefully onto the battlefield and watched with compassion as these historical issues disappeared.

Ah!

King?Bloodline?noble?great?

Klein was surprised that these words could be used on Terran people who had not yet emerged from the feudal era.

"Then that part of the food saved the Tara people?"

Qin Liu asked, with an indelible longing for Victoria in her round eyes - like a little girl lost in history.

outcast rubbed her nose in embarrassment. She had personally experienced the Sakaz Civil War, followed the Evil Spirit of the Tower of Babel, and communicated with Kelsey, who was also one of the Big Three of the Tower of Babel with the Evil Spirit. She had no idea about the so-called glory of the Victoria Kings. He knows everything about the sacrifices, and he also understands more clearly what kind of brutality and blood is buried under the elegance that the Victorians advocated for many generations:

Let Colombia win over the hearts of the Tara people in Victoria?

Just hearing that the food comes from Colombia, outcast can almost understand what kind of choice the Victorians will make:

"Then that part of the grain was directly detained by people from the Victoria Grain Bureau in the name of 'damaging the Victoria grain market and failing to register Victoria-related brands'. Ten days later, they all disappeared. The Colombian diplomats were very 'surprised' to find that there were... High-quality food with the trademark 'Colombian Relief Food'."

As if he felt ridiculous for Qinliu's idea, with a smile that made Qinliu, who was born in Victoria, feel ashamed, he completely shook up what the Aslan royal family, nobles, and businessmen did at that time, shining like a starry sky. The dazzling blue eyes reflected Qinliu's astonishment and disbelief, and Outcast's seriousness and thoughtfulness, linking Aslan's dark history with the Victoria military's kill order:

"After knowing this, let us look back at this execution order for the infected, and things will become simple and clear."

He said: "Jenny, no, Miss Qinliu, maybe you are more interested in the officers and infected people during the transportation. Even if you need to pay attention to the entire transportation, I can see your sympathy for the infected people and your disgust for the officers." , but I’m as interested in the supplies they’re delivering as you are in the people delivering them.”

"Perhaps you haven't noticed, but the weight of the materials transported by the infected workers has been decreasing these days. The sound of their shoes hitting the ground, the footprints in the dust, the loss of physical strength when lifting the materials, and the rapid breathing are all from His voice ranged from hoarse to listless."

"But I also investigated Victoria's official announcement on this material transfer. It said that there were no problems with every material dispatch. They even wrote that in order for the Ussans to win, Victoria was paying a sum of money. Come to a larger material account."

"Then...here's the problem."

Detective Felin narrowed his eyes with a smile, and his dark blue pupils were covered by slightly raised eyelashes. After observing his inference and investigation of various cases for some time, Outcast realized that this was Klein's habitual action when solving mysteries. And he did lift the layer that led to the military's sense of execution

The mist running wildly in the direction of the dyer:

"Why do we keep saying verbally and in writing that the supply of support supplies is constantly rising, and that it is getting easier and easier for infected workers to transport supply boxes? I have inspected the terrain of Xiaoqiu Town. Geographically, it is not the most optimal, but why? Victoria chose Xiaoqiu Town as the vanguard to transport supplies to Ursus?"

"The answer is so obvious that when I said it, I didn't even know whether to lament the lack of concealment of the Victoria military or the cleverness of the film businessmen in covering up evidence and manipulating the political situation."

Klein spit out a bunch of speculations as quickly as a Sakota rapid-fire shooter quickly emptied his magazine. The truth implied in the words made Qin Liu shudder. She quietly looked at the detective in pure black, her pupils trembling, as if Begging him not to reveal all the hidden truth.

But where would Klein listen to the pleading of this poor Victoria girl?
