Chapter 162 The first note of the prelude
When Helot and Melis took the rail car out of the mine tunnel, they realized that it was already late at night outside.
"I'm calling for support!" Melis took out a cylinder and pointed it at the sky, and a special flare shot out, exploding a magic firework high in the sky. "This is a signal flare exclusively used by the Imperial Military Police. Sheriffs, troops, and military police who see it will rush over immediately."
The magic fireworks in the sky stay for a very long time, and form a downward arrow, marking the way forward. Provide directions to the people who came to support you.
Helot looked back at the dark mine tunnel behind him, and thick smoke was billowing out of it.
Suddenly, the "Old Code" rushed out of the thick smoke, covered in black paste as if it had been fished out of a mire. "Old Codex" looked very tired, and it seemed as if it was about to fall from the sky as it swayed.
Helot reached out and grabbed the "Old Codex" and threw it into the space bag.
The impure death energy flows into the pages little by little.
The "Old Code" is so strong that it cannot be moved!
The current situation in the Iron Stone Community means that even if the empire's support arrives, they cannot enter the community to search. After the fire is extinguished, we have to find a way to extract the toxic gases inside and add fresh air in. Within a week, or even half a month, the empire would not be able to investigate.
Herot said to Melis: "I'll leave this to you. Anyway, I have nothing to do here. Go back and rest early, I have to go to work tomorrow."
Meilis threw it to Herot A special ID book: "This is your ID, team leader! Leave the rest to me. When support arrives, I will go to the palace to meet His Majesty."
Helot opened the ID book.
The first thing I saw was the Imperial Military Police badge, a golden double-headed eagle, with one talon holding the shackles and the other holding the sword.
Then there is a bust photo of Helot.
Leader of the Thirteenth Investigation Team of the Special Incident Investigation Section of the Imperial Military Police Headquarters: Helot Claude
The Imperial Emperor’s personal order: exclusive authority, full cooperation, no obstruction! It is stamped with the Emperor's anti-counterfeiting seal.
Very substantial!
"Go ahead and see you later!"
Helot put the documents in his pocket, called Filolo and walked away together. Bresini had turned into a bat and crawled into him. in his pocket.
Melis put her loose hair back into a bun, tied it in a bun with a hairpin, and then took out a pair of glasses and put them on. His whole temperament changed immediately, from a flamboyant warrior to a shrewd clerk.
It seems like a different person.
“Goodbye, team leader!”
At this time, a black police car sped over with its siren blaring.
The Imperial Sheriff's police car is very recognizable. Its front is very large, not only because it contains a high-power engine, but also because it can be deployed to form a bunker when necessary. In special events, the front end of the car can also extend out of the collision angle and break through the wall directly.
The police car is painted in blue as a whole, with the Imperial Security Shield badge printed on both sides of the door.
The sudden braking brought up a cloud of smoke, and then four police officers rushed out of the car. They were holding firearms and wearing long swords, and looked nervous.
A constable shouted to Helot who was passing by: "What happened here?"
Another young constable blocked his way. Firoro immediately pointed the pistol at Helot: "Who are you? What is the relationship between this girl and you?"
"I am the Imperial Military Police, and I want to get my ID now." Helot Show your hands to show that you are unarmed, and then slowly take out the ID from your pocket.
The Sheriff felt terrified as he was stared at by Filolo, and he was somewhat unsure which of the two people in front of him was dangerous.
He carefully took the certificate from Helot.
After seeing the content inside, his body immediately became stiff.
He put away his gun as quickly as possible and stood at attention in a standard military posture: "Lord Claude, please forgive me for my offense to you!" The other three sheriffs also stood at attention at the same time.
Helot stretched out his hand, and the Sheriff immediately handed over the certificate with both hands: "Please forgive me."
"You are right! In such a remote place, it is indeed worthwhile for an adult man to take a little girl with him. Suspicious. The entrance to Tieshi Community is just ahead. There has been some accident underground. My assistant officer is there. Just go and follow her orders.
Don't ask too much. It will do you no good to know too much. "
The sheriffs saluted Helot: "Thank you for reminding me!"
"You guys, please go ahead! Goodbye!"
"Sir, let me drive you off! The surrounding police officers are all coming here to support. They will misunderstand you when they see you."
Helot thought for a while, and it was indeed too far to walk back by himself.
It is really troublesome to show the ID again and again when the police officer comes for support.
"Okay, take your car back."
The young sheriff immediately stepped forward and opened the car door: "Please get in the car, sir... and this lady."
Helot got into the car with Filolo.
The police car started and drove them away from the industrial area.
You can see many police cars driving in the opposite direction quickly with sirens blaring along the way.
After leaving the industrial area, we drove forward for a while and entered the city. Neon lights of various colors shone in from the car window and reflected on Hailot's face.
He looked outside and saw that the citizens who had been busy all day were enjoying their nightlife. Nude pictorials of popular singers are posted outside the nightclub. People who have taken off their daytime disguises are releasing their stress, having fun and drinking passionately.
They believe that the money they spend today will be earned back tomorrow.
This is the confidence that today's empire's strong national power and prosperous economy bring to everyone.
If someone told them now that the empire is facing a crisis that may collapse, they would definitely laugh loudly.
Then he raised his glass and shouted: "Tomorrow will only be better than today, let's drink another drink!"
Tomorrow?
Starting tomorrow, the first note will be played as a prelude to a bloody chaos.
I wonder what decision Emperor Bradley will make after knowing what happened in the Iron Stone Community?
Is it going to be a big purge in the palace and the government with the power of thunder? Or is it to suppress this matter so as not to cause turmoil?
But no matter what, it is definitely right to stay far away.
Helot decided to go to work honestly during this period and play games seriously. When the showdown comes in the future, strong own strength is the strongest language.
The car stopped.
The young sheriff said: "My lord, the Golden Pine Apartment has arrived."
"Thank you!"
Helot got out of the car and walked in with Filolo Apartment building.
After exiting the elevator and turning the corner, I saw Fat Frog Banks standing at the door of his apartment, holding a backpack in his hand.
Seeing Helot back, the anxious Banks was relieved.
