Forbidden City of Heze + Dalufei

After sending Ziluo away, Alpha returned to the office. Seeing that Lei Shu was still sitting in the same position and continuing to play with the chess game, he walked over and sat down on the opposite sofa, picked up a chess piece, and placed it on the back of him. satisfied position.

"It's too much of you to say that there is no one to play against." He sighed, "I have never lost."

"You can't be regarded as a 'human'." Lei Shu replied lightly.

"That's true." Alpha thought for a while and felt that he couldn't find the boss's flaws, but he still couldn't help asking, "However, in your opinion, is there anything special about that inspector general? I haven't seen you in private for several years. You have invited a stranger here, and you seem to be particularly concerned about him."

The chess piece in Lei Shu's hand fell down, and he raised his eyes to look at the young man with an interesting face, a sarcasm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "You are really jealous."

Seeing that the man didn't want to reveal what was in his heart, Alpha understood that this should be the part he was not qualified to understand.He didn't ask any more questions, but said with a little worry while matching the pace of the chess game: "Just let him go like this? He has crossed the line too much, right?"

"What's the hurry, I can't run away." Lei Shu's hand quickly moved a few clever moves, blocking the opponent's offensive one after another, appearing full of confidence. "To be honest, I'm in a good mood today. The first time I met this child face to face, it was much faster than I expected. It's rare that I want to enjoy the state of hide-and-seek."

He paused for a while, carefully observing the opponent's chess moves, and waited until the next step was clear to him, and then continued, "However, Bai Si's mad dog is completely out of control, and even the owner can't control it." Dare to bite. I don’t know how much information he disclosed about us, and it’s really troublesome to let it go like this.”

"Are you going to kill him?"

"It's not that easy." The man frowned slightly, and the chess piece between his fingers tapped the table repeatedly, "That rough-skinned and thick-skinned beast, since he dared to make a mistake, he must be prepared to deal with the worst." The consequences. The black market in Qiubao is no longer as simple as a supply station for the army. They have long wanted to completely get rid of our control and establish themselves in order to monopolize their profits. If they are not well prepared, they are enough to wipe them out in one fell swoop, and rash actions can no longer hurt them. If you are not careful, it will turn into a declaration of war on the central area."

"Bai Si's behavior is already a declaration of war against you?"

"Yes, but it's not just between the two of us, it's better to say that it's a provocation from the outer area by the Black Market of Castle, which represents the interests of the central area."

"I understand your concerns." Alpha smiled and took one of the opponent's chess pieces, holding it in his hand and playing with it.His boss is undoubtedly a master of chess, but this level of game moves is just the most simple procedure in his eyes. "The Qiubao black market is just a rabble of civil society. We have a well-trained army in our hands, and we have a certain chance of winning the liberation of the central area. However, Dalufei may turn into a state of civil war again. It's a pity, you A country that has finally stabilized..."

As soon as the words fell, Lei Shu sighed, as if he couldn't think of the next move, he stopped and rubbed his temples, and after putting down his hands, he clasped his fingers tightly again, this rare anxiety was palpable in words.

"It's all because of the failure of that plan that we are so passive. Otherwise, He Ze is now Dalufei's territory, and we can expand to the richest land in the Eastern Continent. Who wants to stay here? A tiny place, fighting for food with those rotting maggots?"

The mood of playing chess seems to be disrupted, unable to sink like choking dust rising up.Lei Shu simply stood up, dropped the newly filled black tea on the table, walked to the mini bar behind the sofa, and poured himself half a glass of strong wine.

"Shangguan Junliu not only caused us to lose the easy victory, but also plunged Dalufei into an existential crisis. Now, the capital has completely turned his face and regards us as the biggest thorn in the side. The mistress of the devil, An Lie, once To gain a firm foothold in He Ze, it is impossible to allow us to coexist with her. It is only a matter of time before Dalufei's internal and external troubles."

"However, since that plan has not been exposed, we have become more favorable in terms of public opinion. Because of the breach of the peace talks, all are already under the sanctions of the War Council, and several countries around He Ze have also stationed heavy troops on the border. She doesn't have the time to trouble us in a short time." Alpha comforted his boss with a relaxed tone, "Besides, now that Shangguan Junliu is in our hands, I heard that he has also suffered a lot and is like a useless person. Made good."

"Do you think he is really a fool looking for his own death?" Lei Shu's expression was still not so optimistic, he drank the spicy liquid in the cup one after another, making his throat as hot as burning. "Did you forget that the guy in the last life was still detained in the hands of the Bangdu Army? If the Tongdu restrained us, Shangguan Junliu would come to Dalufei without fear. Not only that, he was the leader of the Bangdu buried in Dalufei Huo Suo, if he had gone to other member states to serve his sentence, we would have tried our best to end his life. But now he is on our territory, if something goes wrong, we can't get rid of this responsibility, and everything is waiting Let’s make trouble with this.”

"However, Tongdu has long been a notorious invader. Even without the opportunity of Shangguan Junliu, as long as the time is right, they will declare war without any scruples, right?"

"This is Shangguan Junliu's scheming." Lei Shu snorted disdainfully, and walked to the large French window with his wine glass in his hand, "He has seen the Tao of robbers that Dongdu has always followed. Queen Lie had a private agreement. Now that she has given her country, she will not do anything harmful to him. From this point of view, he is not so much a fuse as a fuse. Because others are in Dalufei, Bangdu will not easily declare war on us. Such a dangerous balance between the two countries is restricted by him alone."

Seeing that his boss had no intention of continuing the mess in front of him, Alpha began to fiddle with the pieces on the chessboard, combining them into a pattern of black and white question marks. "I can't believe he really thought so much about it. He was just 20 years old when he was convicted of treason."

"The last life is because we underestimated him so much that we suffered so much. So even if he is locked in Mojila, it can't make people feel at ease. Since we can't kill the grass, we have to set him up with a stronger one." collar." Lei Shu said as he drank the rest of the wine in the glass in one gulp.Looking at the misty Argosta in the distant sky through the low pressure clouds and fog that filled the entire country.Under the dark land that was gradually getting out of control, there was a disturbing seed buried, imagining crushing the attempt that was desperately sprouting, he held the cup tightly.

"When we finish our breath, the Eastern Alliance will be re-established. Of course, this time as the leader of the alliance, it must be Dalu, who has the strongest military force. By that time, Shangguan Junliu will have no value in survival. Everything will be given to him." Our shame, we will repay it double."

Zilo didn't know how he got back to his deserted residence.Locking himself inside, he had sat motionless for nearly an hour, every muscle in his body tensed with the emotion that was always at the breaking point.

When he walked out of Crystal City, his mind was filled with only one impulse: to see Jun Liu immediately.

It's like a brainwashed person has suddenly regained all his senses, and he wants to meet this deeply cared person, who is his only connection with this world.As long as you hold his warm hand, listen to his voice, and feel his love, you will be able to determine the meaning of your existence and grasp this self that is about to disappear completely.He was so eager, but he struggled repeatedly to suppress this impulse until he was exhausted.

Can not meet.Finally understood why Jun Liu rejected him again and again.When Zi Luo kept trying to get closer to him, he realized that he was stepping on this sharp blade, and the end of the blade was right on the opponent's neck.

When did the tragedy begin?Even before he learned to walk upright, Qi Zi was already deeply mired in the quagmire of the Qiubao black market.When he fled to He Ze to join the army and fight, he thought that at least he could choose his own way of survival, at least he could give his sister happiness by his own strength.Obviously, she has put her hopes to the minimum, as long as she lives peacefully like an ordinary person.In the end, even such a humble vision was completely wiped out!

Zilo held his breath, otherwise he was afraid that he would cry out in pain, and his clenched fists were already trembling.As if he could no longer understand this cruel world, he almost laughed out loud, completely abandoning his already abandoned spirit in the chaos.

Whether it is my sister or me, I have never had the free will exercised as a "human being".From the beginning to the end, as a tool of war, we have not escaped from the cage of Dalufi for a moment.My sister thought that her sacrifice could give me freedom, and I thought that my sacrifice could give her happiness, but it turned out to be illusory in the end, and it was all a waste of effort!

"Junliu...you fool..." Zi Luo's voice was choked up in the silent room, like a patient who would die at any time, he closed his eyes tightly, and the young man who appeared in front of him was silent, using his pair of eyes Dark eyes stared at him quietly.

"Do you think I'm so stupid that I can't figure it out? It's my sister who betrayed you...she is the same thing as me...how can I love you? Do you think I...don't even have the courage to face this fact What?!"

No, it was actually the two of us who committed an irreparable crime against you.

The black-haired young man's clothes were messy, revealing the bruised and purple-red mottled skin underneath, and he couldn't even stand up. That was the tragic state he reappeared in front of Zilo after he was escorted to Darufei for a long distance.After being beaten by him, Junliu still smiled, his indifferent attitude was even more unbearable compared to the shocking scars on his body.

Why do you have to be so gentle when you have come to this point?Do you not hesitate to use your bruised appearance to continue to be brave?Can the crimes we committed against you be forgiven even if we couldn't help ourselves?Knowing nothing, can I escape the condemnation of my conscience and live a normal life?

You shouldn't have anything to do with things like ours.We can't bear your love for us, we can't even respond to it!I came to you selfishly and left you selfishly, even if you forget me forever, I will be filled with comfort and gratitude.Isn't that enough? !What have we become, why should you care! !

Zilo collapsed on the bed, buried his face between his arms, trying to hide his brokenness from the black monitor overhead.He bit his wrist hard and didn't make any sound until his whole heart was as empty as if it had been burned.
