Chapter 1255 Farewell (Thanks to the Leader of Erbing Who Rang the Bell
After the autumn wind blew away, the last dead leaves fell to the ground in a mess and were trampled to pieces.
Just down the street, a sparse crowd gathered on the lawn in front of City Hall, holding signs and looking up at the buildings behind the fence.
The men and women are different, some are old and some are young, but they have the same slovenly appearance and embarrassing clothes, just like homeless people.
Whenever there is a vehicle coming in or out, they will get close to each other, wave the sign, and shout with all their strength:
"We want to work! We want to live!"
Unfortunately, no one could really hear it through the high walls and fences.
Vehicles come and go as normal.
Only the guards stared indifferently at all the callers who dared to approach, weighing the batons in their hands in a silent threat.
When the cold thin rain of early winter fell from the sky, in the cold wind, the crowds wearing only thin clothes could no longer bear the cold temperature and dispersed in panic.
Only a few people were still standing there, shouting and repeating.
But no one listened.
In the end, even the hoarse shouts were covered by the deafening shouts in the distance.
On a broad avenue beyond a street intersection, surging crowds were waving flags of all sizes. Thousands of people outside painted their faces with various colors, and slowly moved forward under the leadership of the front.
The news helicopter in the sky lowered its altitude and took pictures downwards, truly recording the entire process.
"Against discrimination! Protest against gender differentiation!"
"Support sexual minorities! Oppose harassment in the workplace!"
“Transgender is not guilty!”
"We have to respect! We have to understand!!!"
The sincere shouts and shouts moved the reporters at the front almost to tears. They described to the cameras in the China Unicom live broadcast room the sufferings of sexual minorities and the long-term injustices they have suffered, calling for The whole society takes it seriously and respects it.
A block away, the unemployed who were waving their signs and trying to get closer fell to the ground and crawled in pain under the sticks and drives of the security guards.
The remaining people had already gone into the alley in embarrassment, not daring to come out again.
When the clock at the top of the city rang, the sparse rain finally stopped, and the slight sunshine at two o'clock in the afternoon shone into this cold city.
The streets are still busy with traffic, the songs in the shops echo in the air, and there are many pedestrians.
This is a healthy and normal day in the Holy City.
Nowadays, the chaotic impact caused by the blackout half a year ago is almost invisible. Only guards with guns and live ammunition on every street still remind people that nothing is over yet.
‘The adjuster is still looking at you. ’
Everyone said so.
After the turmoil that almost affected the whole city had passed, no one dared to despise this name.
If at first there were still people who regarded the declaration on the TV as sensationalism, then the subsequent major events and the growing number of fanatical followers made this name deeply engraved in everyone's memory. .
That name is everywhere.
Not only in the destruction and graffiti that can be seen everywhere in the lower-rise areas, but also in the nightmares of countless gangs and street members, and even the rumors among company employees...
Call a lawyer.
Since that night, countless people who claimed to believe in this name began to take action, and how many people followed his footsteps and started to cause turmoil, but there were very few people who actually saw him.
It is only in the conclusive descriptions of witnesses after an attack and destruction that the words and deeds of that person can be heard.
There are countless people who go out to do evil in his name, and there are countless people who claim to act in accordance with his will, but there are very few who actually have anything to do with him.
True followers regard him as a god, but more people regard him as a madman with mental problems.
With the crime rate constantly increasing and countless riots, the Guard regarded him as a serious problem.
And only the giants who had secretly confronted him countless times knew that the existence of the Adjuster had become a parasitic cancer in this city!
The Eternal Electric Explosion, the Solomon Theater Massacre, the Gospel Financial Collapse, the Future Electronics Department collective kidnapping, and the poisonings that affected half of the Greenland Chemical board of directors...
Even, in order to destroy Xingchen Medical, a terrorist attack caused thousands of people to die in pain from biological and chemical weapons.
For half a year, that ghostly figure walked through the darkness and turmoil, constantly igniting burning flames in the dark places of the city.
Almost everyone can intuitively feel the rapid deterioration of the public security environment.
But what is incredible is that in such a bad situation, the economic market and corporate welfare benefits, which have been declining and declining in previous years, have actually improved.
Especially when Hope Energy reorganized the Universal Power Group, it fired less than 2,000 people, which moved the original employees to tears and vowed to serve the company until death.
Under such circumstances, revelations and reports against investigators and their associates are common.
Everyone accused the crazy lunatic with righteous indignation and denounced his misdeeds...
But the strange thing is that everyone knows what a terrifying villain the adjuster is. But everyone seems to be secretly colluding with the prosecutor's accomplices...
Catch them endlessly and kill them all.
Until the guards of the Holy City gave up looking for clues through reporting, even the deputy director's wife and children were about to become the investigators' accomplices.
After all, who would let the deputy director come home and find that in addition to the whole family, there was a smiling stranger waiting for him at the dinner table?
After the overt search disappeared, the secret search and pursuit never relaxed at all.
Detectives and informants from corporate giants are still densely spread throughout the Holy City, looking for any news and clues.
In particular, Dark Horse Industries, which has become famous recently, has gained a lot of attention by capturing many accomplices of molesters in one fell swoop. And its chairman ignored the risk of death and the threat of terrorist attacks. He denounced the transfer lawyer many times in public, mocking and insulting his personality and appearance. For a time, in the news of Shengdu Entertainment, he was Known as the conscience of the Holy City.
However, there are only a few lucky ones like Dark Horse Industries.
For the pursuers, their goals are like non-existent phantoms.
I could clearly hear his sneer in the darkness, but when the light came on, all the clues would disappear, leaving only the mess on the ground, mocking the opponents who overestimated their capabilities.
There were more people who tried their best, but could only find a few scavenging hyenas and impostors.
But even so, the giants are still running unhurriedly, and under the slowly shrinking dragnet, and in the pursuit of countless cameras and eyeliners, there are still times when the key is caught.
Everyone knows that the giants can lose countless times.
As for the lawyer, if he loses once... he is finished.
.
"Is it the real thing?"
"Yes. It is said that I have met the lawyer in person."
"Then we are very lucky."
"Whether that's good or not is another matter, but this guy's luck is not that good..."
Under the dim light, the smoking guard at the door chatted, occasionally turning back and looking through the window on the iron door into the narrow space inside.
The man hanging on the chain was constantly twitching in the electric current, his rickety body arched violently, and the wounds all over his body burst open, like small mouths waiting to be fed.
Thick blood flowed from the toes whose nails had been removed and fell into the pool of accumulated blood.
Three minutes later, the interrogator, who had returned from peeing, slowly turned off the switch.
The current stops.
With a harsh friction sound, a chair was moved in front of him, and the somewhat lame middle-aged man sat down. When he tilted his head, the person behind him stepped forward and lit the pipe for him.
Then, a basin of cold water was poured on the prisoner's face.
A hoarse moan sounded.
It was like waking up from a nightmare, wheezing, coughing, convulsing and contracting.
"Are you okay, Mr. Polgar?"
The middle-aged man took off his pipe and sighed with pity: "You seem a little... cold?"
Polgar on the chain made a hoarse, vague sound, as if in response, but also like an indifferent sneer.
But soon, someone stepped forward, pulled up his hair, forced him to open his eyes and look at the interrogator.
"You've already heard the conditions. They won't change again, and there won't be any more."
The man smoking the pipe slowly exhaled and looked into his eyes with gray eyes: "Don't waste time, be kind to yourself... Tell me, kid, where is the adjuster?"
"In the south? No, it seems to be in the north..."
Polgar choked and whispered hoarsely, but in the end, she seemed unable to hold back her laughter, "Hey hey hey, I can't remember clearly. Maybe it's in the east, or maybe... up there."
The laughter was too high-pitched, lost its pitch, and in the end, turned into a muffled gasp.
It's like spitting hard.
Unfortunately, he ran out of energy, and bloody saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, falling to the ground lonely.
The interrogator sighed and waved his hand.
The assistant behind him moved forward again, showing Polgar what he had in his hand - an old electric drill with a sharp drill bit attached to it.
A sharp spinning sound sounded for a moment.
Soon, it turned into a dull sound, covered in painful screams.
A few minutes later, someone came up, replaced Polgar with a new intravenous drip, injected drugs, and kept him alive.
Then, the electric drill was withdrawn.
The interrogator asked again: "Where is Huai Shi?"
"Hey, in your...your...nightmare..."
The interrogator waved his hand indifferently.
The electric drill was replaced with a scalpel.
Ten minutes later, the interrogator asked again. This time, Polgar did not answer.
The electricity was reconnected, cold water and medicine, then the mouse, and finally the carpenter's electric saw slowly cut his finger in half from the middle.
At the end, after changing the third bottle of intravenous drip, the doctor who checked the situation turned back, glanced at the interrogator, and gave a silent signal.
After clearing the third pipe of cigarette ashes, the interrogator asked one last question:
"Last chance, Polgar."
"Lawyer, where is he?"
Polgar groaned and said something vaguely, but the interrogator remained indifferent and still stood where he was.
In the dead silence, only hoarse laughter gradually sounded from the hollow and shriveled body.
Under the drag of the chain, the naked Polgar gasped and raised her neck with her last effort. Her empty pupils were filled with scarlet bloodshot eyes.
And, some kind of creepy fanaticism.
"You will eventually... be burned to the ground!!!"
"..."
The interrogator did not speak any more. He just finished smoking the last pipe of tobacco, looked back at the camera behind him, and stood up after indicating that he had done all his efforts.
"Dispose of it."
The interrogator leaves.
The iron door was not closed, and with the sharp sound of wheels turning, a trolley was pushed in.
Polgar, who was dying in chains, was left in the car, vomiting and coughing up blood.
The trolley moved slowly.
Passing through the long tunnel and slowly going upwards, in his daze, Polgar felt the bumps on the ground, the stench coming from the wind... and the increasingly noisy and high-pitched shouts.
In front of the final iron gate, the cart tilted forward and dropped him to the ground.
Someone took out the syringe used at noon from his pocket, inserted it into his neck, injected the medicine, and finally patted his face: "This is a good product, it will give you an advantage."
The shouts grew louder and louder.
Across the iron gate.
As if there was a fire burning in his chest, Polgar groaned hard, and the last strength emerged under the pressure of stimulants, allowing him to hold up his body.
He raised his head with difficulty and looked at the door that slowly opened.
There was also a bright light behind the door that was so dazzling that it seemed to blind the eyes.
"Titan!"
"Titan!!"
"Titan!!!"
In the stands behind the high wall, countless ecstatic spectators were calling, shouting, and roaring the name crazily. Countless drink bottles and banknotes fell from the high platform and piled up on the edge of the arena.
The low footsteps were like an earthquake.
When the iron cage was torn apart by brutal force, the three-meter-long deformed giant broke out of the cage and roared wildly, inspired by his animal nature.
Under the transformation of Xingchen Medical, the test subjects have been filled with distorted organs. The big mouth on the chest slowly drips with sticky drag. On the face like a crocodile, the small eyes slowly rotate, filled with scarlet. .
Look at Polgar who stumbled out of the door on the other side.
"Titan! Titan! Titan!!!"
Countless spectators shouted, admiring this rare feeding show.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Supreme Arena!!!"
Amidst the spray of sparks, the host slowly rose from the high platform, holding a microphone and shouting loudly: "I believe everyone has been waiting for a long time, no more nagging, no more nonsense - welcome to our twelve consecutive wins. Fighter, cruel and ruthless killing beast——[Titan]!!!”
As a result, the shouts filled with excitement and joy became louder and louder.
"And next, the lucky ones who will appear will have the opportunity to compete with the Titans——"
During the host's joking introduction, the spotlight illuminated the embarrassed figure covered in blood: "The peerless villain of the Holy City, the confidant of the conciliator and his loyal dog - the ascetic Polgar!!!"
In the hoarse and enthusiastic introduction, everyone couldn't help but remain silent for a moment, widening their eyes and looking at the rickety prisoner displayed on the big screen.
The man who was dying and almost unable to stand.
Immediately afterwards, the shouts, which were far more crazy and high-pitched than before, sounded again, like thunder.
Unfortunately, the name of the duelist was not shouted.
But a more hungry command.
"Kill him! Kill him!! Kill him!!!"
I don’t know how many people were already hungry and thirsty. Their eyes widened, they pulled on the railings and roared at the beasts in the field: "Titan, eat that son of a bitch!"
"Tear his dick off!"
"Kill him, Titan!"
"kill him!!!"
The shouts turned into a torrent, echoing in the field, making the hungry beasts more and more manic.
The Titan screamed and trampled on the ground, its small eyes fixed on the prey that was sent to the field, and the big mouth on its chest was filled with saliva.
Again and again, the chain was pulled.
In the cheers and cheers of the audience, the chain was stretched until it was deformed, until finally, it broke completely!
The high-pitched voice brought the atmosphere in the venue to a climax.
Amid countless distorted smiles, the escaped Titan was running wildly. After being hungry for several days, he opened his big mouth and swooped out at the prey that was unable to stand still!
Then, there was a sudden explosion of thunder.
boom!
Scarlet rainstorm blowout.
In the frozen silence, the headless beast flew out and landed on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, his left arm exploded and fell off, and his right arm, legs, and finally, were beaten to a pulp by the sniper at the top of the arena.
Then, there was the stunned host, the audience in the first-class seats, and the panicked guards.
A harsh electric sound exploded from the speakers, buzzing endlessly.
In the end, everyone froze in place, feeling the coldness that made their lungs and bones tremble in the sudden deathly silence.
Even the sound of breathing seemed to have stopped suddenly.
The whole world came to a standstill.
Only in the darkness, at the foot of the stairs, the sound of low footsteps slowly rose, passing through the layers of open doors, towards the countless horrified spectators.
It's like being in your own palace.
Move forward slowly.
Stepping on the steps stained red with blood, I crossed over the gradually cold corpses.
In the end, I walked into the dazzling light.
The slightly thin man with long gray hair narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his hand to block the too dazzling light. When he lowered his head and looked at his companion sitting on the ground, he couldn't help but smile.
"Polgar, are you okay?"
Polgar was sluggish.
It was difficult to see the smiling face clearly through the empty pupils, but the low voice was so familiar, as if... in a dream.
His lips were pursed and he was breathing hard, but he couldn't say the name.
"Holy, Holy See?"
"Well, it's me."
Huai Shi nodded, bent down, and sat on the ground next to him, as if he had just parted ways just now, and said to him: "I saw you didn't come back, so I came to find you."
Got to the top floor.
Came to their arena.
"me……"
Polgar gasped hard and was choked with sobs that he could not speak.
"I was a little worried along the way, but when I saw you looking so refreshed, I felt a little relieved." The lawyer smiled and looked at his face: "You look like a man now, Polgar, that's amazing. "
"Uh-huh!"
Polgar nodded vigorously, already in tears!
"How old are you? Don't cry. It's embarrassing like a child."
Huai Shi sighed softly, took out the cigarette case from his pocket, tore open the package, lit one in the corner of his mouth, took two puffs, and stuffed it into his mouth: "Red Wolf, the brand you wanted to buy at that time... ...Am I remembering correctly? Slow down, idiot, don't choke.
I told you to quit smoking a long time ago, but you didn't listen. Smoking is harmful to your health. Do you believe me this time? "
Polgar took a breath with all his strength, spit it out, and felt a slight warmth. I don’t know why, but through the smoke, that distant face became clearer.
He was looking at himself, smiling helplessly.
"Feel sorry."
Huai Shi said, "I couldn't save you."
Polgar grinned, revealing his broken gums, as if he was smiling, but the cigarette fell weakly from the corner of his mouth.
It doesn't matter anymore.
He had already been prepared.
This was obviously the right thing to do, he had seen through life and death long ago, but when he saw those calm and compassionate eyes, he couldn't help but want to cry.
Don't want to die.
Feeling viscerally scared.
I didn't want to leave in such a mess, not knowing where I was going.
I couldn't help but choke up.
Looking at those eyes that seemed to be forever compassionate, I choked with sobs and finally prayed:
"Can you...please...take me for a ride?"
"Of course."
Huai Shi answered matter-of-factly, stretched out her hand towards him, "Want to come?"
"We're together," he said.
The man stood in the light, smiling and waiting.
Polgar gritted his teeth and tried his best to raise his fingers, trying to touch his palm.
But it's too far away.
Like a phantom, hard to reach.
He had no strength left.
The mutilated palm fell weakly, but was caught by Guangli's hand.
Hold tight.
A familiar laughter sounded, inviting him: "Let's go, my dear friend, let's set off."
Well, let's go.
Polgar smiled and closed his eyes in contentment.
He exhaled his last breath.
In Huai Shi's hands, the blood-stained fingers slipped weakly and returned to the dust.
Huai Shi was left standing alone, staring at that peaceful expression, watching his former companions follow and leave with such concentration.
Police sirens and explosions gradually sounded in the distance.
In the silence, Huai Shi quietly watched the cigarette on the ground extinguished in a pool of blood, nodded, turned and left.
However, after leaving, he casually looked back and glanced behind him.
"Remember to practice it for Mr. Polgar."
The lawyer said: "This is his funeral."
The followers who were half kneeling on the ground nodded silently and pressed the switch of the detonator. Countless firelights rose up amid the violent vibrations.
The arena, the blood, the spectators and the corpses of the beasts.
Everything quickly disappeared in the collapse.
Only the flames burned in the ruins, and the scarlet color rose, dyeing the clouds into blood.
The howling hurricane spreads.
Like a roar.
To this frightened world, announce the return of death!
After being stuck for a day, I finally figured it out. Also, it seems that there are activities for monthly passes at the beginning of the month. Please give me monthly passes~
