Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 768: Public Execution

    

r scouting terrain and tracking. The moment it touched the magic circle, it dissipated. If I hadn't been nearby at the time, we wouldn't have discovered it.""Hmph! The only one who could do this is Na...The broadcast was made in the morning and repeated in the afternoon, ensuring that all survivors in Qi-mu City could hear it.

The ripples was stroking the wind while watching the cars driving away, a little envious. He had a car but couldn't take it out in the open, and he had to work hard for a while himself.

At this moment, a knock on the door echoed. Lian Yi could tell by the rhythm of the knocking that it was Yuan Chongming. She opened the door and let him in to speak.

"Ripples, did you hear the broadcast just now"

"Well, I heard! Getting ready to join the fun tomorrow, what are your plans"

"We're planning to leave one person at home tomorrow, and the rest of us will go to the central square. After all, we can get relief supplies there, and any amount is better than nothing."

"Okay, let's take action together tomorrow, bring Dr. Liu and Nurse Director Xu along."

"Okay, this is a good time to let Jiayao go outside for some fresh air. He's been cooped up lately."

Yuan Chongming said with a smile.

"Is it appropriate to take children to see an execution"

Ripples pursed her lips and asked, "Don't let the child have a childhood shadow."

"Times have changed, he needs to learn to distinguish right from wrong. He doesn't have to watch the bloody scenes, at least let him understand the principles."

On this point, Yuan Chongming was very insistent.

"As his uncle, you have the final say."

After exchanging a few words, Yuan Chongming bid farewell and left.

The next day at 10:00 a.m., almost everyone on the 15th and 16th floors showed up, only Zhao Jia stayed behind to look after things. She said she didn't like watching people being executed by firing squad.

Throughout the entire Sanshui Huating residential area, many people also went to the central square. It wasn't to watch the execution; they went to receive their food rations.

When they arrived at the central square, skating and snowboarding their way across the icy ground, they were met with a sea of faces. Despite the devastation caused by both nature and man, it seemed that there were still many survivors.

The center of the square was a temporary platform built up with ice blocks. Dozens of people were kneeling on it, surrounded by armed police officers. Although there were many people in the square, the scene was orderly.

"Survivors, this time our military and police cooperated to eliminate the evil forces led by Sun Qiang."

The ripples, they were far away, but because of the amplification device, they could hear it clearly.

"Sounds familiar, isn't this the Strong Brother we killed"

Son Wei Feng lowered his voice and asked Lian Yi.

"Listen, what he's done is bad. When the time comes for him to be shot, see what that Sun Qiang looks like."

Ripple said calmly.

And young Tang Jiayao was sitting on his uncle's shoulders, curiously looking at the bad guys tied up on stage.

The first offender, Sun Qiang, died in a fight with someone while robbing food the day before his arrest.

Hearing this, Lian Yi and Sun Weifeng looked at each other, confirming that their "qiang ge" who had been wiped out was indeed the black evil force targeted by the military and police.

"We've also done our part to rid the people of harm!"

Ripple smiled and said.

The sound of gunfire, "bang bang bang," echoed through the air. The first group of twenty was shot dead, followed by another twenty who were dragged away. These men were clearly terrified, whimpering and begging for mercy, but no one showed them any sympathy. Each man received a single peanut as they were sent to their deaths.

Over these five rotations, a hundred people have been executed. It's clear that this time the military and police are truly determined to crack down on these scum. It also serves as a warning to those who jump around and cause trouble.

After the execution ended, twenty teams were formed on the square and began distributing relief food. It was only at this time that people in the square made a sound, lining up nearby to receive their rations.

The ripples They also lined up orderly, the vast square was not cutting in line, nor making trouble after all, the blood on the stage was still hot!

They were well-prepared, dressed warmly and brought provisions. They queued for three hours and finally it was their turn.

"Name!"

"Ripple of melancholy."

Current address.

"Room 15A, Building No. 4, Shanshui Huating Residential Complex."

"Identity card number."

Ripple reached into their pocket and pulled out an identity card, actually taken from space, and handed it to the registration officer.

This is my identity card.

"Okay, just a moment."

The other party was very quick. After registering, they returned the ID card to Ripple and asked her to go behind them to receive their rations.

Ripple opened up her little cloth bag, and the soldier poured a spoonful of rice into it for Ripple. He gestured for the next person to come forward.

Even the ripples didn't mind, after tying the bag tightly and stuffing it into his backpack, he stood aside waiting for his companions.

Yuan Chongming and Jiayao soon caught up with her. As they waited for Li Qian and Liu Zili, etc., a tall man in a military coat walked over to the two of them. He stopped his steps before Lian Yi and Yuan Chongming, then politely spoke:

"Hello, our Captain Song wants to meet with a few of you."

Ripple and Yuan Chongming looked at each other, both saw doubt in each other's eyes. In the end, Yuan Chongming still said with a smile:

>

"Okay, we just need to wait for our companions first."

"Of course."

Half an hour later, everyone had arrived except Zhao Jia. Then, under the leadership of the handsome officer, they got on a military truck and headed to the temporary camp.

Along the way, none of them spoke. They all adopted an attitude of "whatever happens, happens," and Ripple even took out some dried fish to feed Whirlwind.

Since the incident with Xiaoxiao, Lianyi went back and made an identity tag for Xinfeng to hang around its neck so that it wouldn't be remembered by certain people again.

Because they were taking a car, it only took them an hour to reach the temporary headquarters building. In a 30-square-meter makeshift office, they met Captain Song.

"Hello, Captain Song!"

Yuan Chongming spoke first. He had met Captain Song last time, and it was he who took down Xu Shengli's stronghold in the wealthy residential area on the hillside.

"Hello, please sit down!"

Captain Song spoke in a friendly tone.

After everyone had taken their seats, Yuan Chongming was the first to speak:

I wonder what Captain Song thinks we're here for

"Indeed, there's something I need your help with."

As soon as he said that, Lian Yi raised her eyes to look at him for a moment before continuing to pet the cat. The words "Nothing good comes from unsolicited help, it must be either treachery or theft" were plastered on the top of his head.

"Help What can we do to help, right now just staying safe is hard."

“No, you are all rare talents and people who stick to their principles. Moreover, last time when we captured Xu Shengli’s territory and this time when we apprehended Sun Qiang, you all secretly contributed your efforts, saving us a lot of trouble. We are very grateful.”

"Captain Song, a verbal expression of gratitude is too superficial. Some tangible support would be better. We accept food supplies or warm clothing."

Ripple smiled and said,

“Of course, we've got everything ready here. The main reason for meeting you guys today is to invite you to join our special task force with the military and police. You'd be responsible for tasks like finding food, combating crime, and gathering intelligence. You'll enjoy the same benefits as our military and police personnel - no more hunger or hardship, and your safety will be guaranteed. Take some time to consider it.”

Captain Song straight to the point stated their purpose for inviting them.

"The terms are quite tempting, could we consider them and get back to you Besides, our teammates are waiting for us at home."

Of course, I'm waiting for your good news!ll told to Ripple in a letter written by Zisu later. Ripple listened as if it was a joke, thinking that this Tang Zijun was indeed the son of Tang Huirong, both alike in their selfishness.People from...
