Emery

Eight years later, a new Emerai was rebuilt—

"Hey, have you heard? The new governor is a young major general."

"I've heard, I've heard, it is said that he is the iron-blooded colonel who helped us completely repel the principality of G two years ago.

There have been eight years, and now he is only 23 years old. "

"No, I heard that he has a cruel and cruel personality. It is because of his iron-blooded wrist that he was promoted so quickly in the army and died at his hands on the battlefield.

There are too many people to count. "

"I also heard that when he was a major, he led a group of people on a mission, but was ambushed and trapped for more than half a month.

All the people in the team died, only he survived. "

"Ah, I've also heard about this. It is said that he survived by eating the corpses of his comrades."

"Wow, it's scary! Stop talking, if those soldiers hear it, we'll be finished."

On the square, several neighbors gathered together, whispering to each other about the iron-blooded colonel who is about to serve as the new governor, oh no, it should be

It's called Major General Jagged.

The Principality of M has gained a comprehensive advantage in the nearly two years of war. Not only has it won several battles one after another, but it has also plundered a lot of the territory of the Principality of G.

Now the war in the north is still spreading, and the south has temporarily ceased fighting. As for when the fighting will resume, no one knows now.

Emelai was silent as a dead city for six years. After Principality G was repulsed, it was formally rebuilt by the senior officials of Principality M.

Nowadays, the citizens here are all migrated from neighboring cities, most of them are the middle and lower classes of society. After coming here, they receive subsidies from the state and get

Some land or manor, everyone produces together.

"Aunt Mary, I have brought you the seeds you asked for."

A gentle voice sounded from not far away, and the neighbors who had gathered together just now turned their heads at the same time and looked at the visitor with a smile on their faces.

.

The young man in his early twenties has a slender figure. It can be seen that he has been exercising all year round, so although he is a little thin, his body is not thin.

The body is more hidden strength and tenacity.

Brilliant blond hair, angelic handsome face, when he smiles, it seems to be more dazzling than the sun.

Aunt Mary greeted him cheerfully, she obviously liked this young man very much, "Jamil, thank you for your hard work, come to my house soon, I have stewed fresh

Chicken soup, take it home for you. "

"I also have freshly picked fruit from the orchard here, Jamil, you take it back too."

"I have some fresh vegetables, Jamil, take them back with you."

All of a sudden, everyone surrounded the young man. With a smile on his face, the young man said a little shyly, "No, every time everyone gives me this

There are so many things, how embarrassing. "

As soon as this sentence was said, the neighbors immediately became enthusiastic again.

"What's the matter, Jamil, if you hadn't helped us all back then, how could our house have been built so quickly."

"That's right, our cow was sick that year. If it weren't for you, our family would have starved all winter."

"Now your mother is seriously ill, you are so busy that you don't have time to go to the field, but you still help us deliver things, Jamil, we are all very grateful to you, for this

Small meaning, you must accept it. "

"That's right, after I have turned over all the land in the manor, I will go to your house to help you take care of your mother, and you can hold on for a few more days."

Faced with everyone's kindness and concern, Jamil could only nod and accept, and then followed everyone to get things.

Jamil embraced the things from the neighbors. He was about to say goodbye and leave when he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes not far away.

A dozen or so horses galloped to the front, Jamil hurriedly retreated with everyone to make way.

The horsemen were all soldiers in military uniforms. They passed through the square defiantly. They clearly saw many citizens in the square, but they didn't surrender at all.

The speed of the horses was low, and many people were brought down by them when they ran past quickly. For a while, the square was full of wailing.

Jamil was protecting the large and small bags in his arms, looking at the direction where the group of soldiers were leaving, his eyes burst out with anger.

"Is this the soldier brought by the new governor? It's too much." Aunt Mary gritted her teeth and said angrily.

"Yeah, I heard that this group of people is very arrogant and domineering. They caused public resentment when they were stationed in the capital. I heard that the president just doesn't want to control

They were transferred to Aymelai. "

"It's disgusting, so we won't have a good life in the future? Major General Iron Blood's subordinates are indeed a group of barbaric and inhuman fellows.

'

Everyone was discussing in dissatisfaction, Jamil sighed lightly, turned around and said, "Anyway, everyone should be careful in the future, and if you meet those soldiers, you can avoid them."

Just avoid it. "

"Hey, that's not true, who made us just petty citizens, and we have no ability to fight against soldiers at all."

"Even if there is, you can't make a move, okay? A while ago in Dosa, someone confronted a major in public, and was shot dead by the major on the spot."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Jamil glanced in the direction of the Governor's Mansion with a complicated expression. This is how soldiers are now, relying on their status and power to bully

Oppressing citizens is violence and insults at every turn.

But shouldn't soldiers be there to protect citizens?Why are they now more brutal and more feared than those invaders?

Three days later, when Jamil came to the square again, intending to send some home-grown corn to the neighbors as a gift, he heard whips and screams.

"Forgive me, my lord, please spare us!"

A man in coarse cloth was kneeling on the square, covering a child in his arms with both hands and begging for mercy.

In front of them, a man wearing a major's uniform was riding on a horse, and the whip in his hand was whipping the man's body from time to time.

There were several citizens around, but no one dared to go up and stop the major.

"Aunt Mary, what happened?" Jamil took a closer look, only to realize that the man being beaten was Uncle George, whom he also knew.

"George rammed the major's horse," whispered Aunt Mary.

"how could be?"

"Major rode on horseback and almost ran into George's kid, so he rushed out."

Jamil frowned when he heard this, and took a step forward. Aunt Mary quickly grabbed him, "Jamil, don't be impulsive, you last time

Didn't I also say that if you can avoid it, avoid it?Don't ask for trouble. "

"Aunt Mary, I want you to avoid it as much as possible." Jamil said in a low voice, broke away from Aunt Mary's hand, and stepped out of the crowd.

"Stop!" Going straight to George, Jamil grabbed hold of the major's whip.

"Uncle George has apologized repeatedly, why is the major still refusing to forgive him, he just ran into your horse, you were not injured, let alone the square

There are already a lot of people in the Venerable Master, so you shouldn't ride a horse and run amok. "

Jamil's loud words made the surrounding onlookers gasp. The major on the horse glared at him angrily, and tried to withdraw his whip several times.

Jamil didn't let go.

"Presumptuous, mere pariah, how dare you block my whip!" The major yelled angrily, and waved his hand vigorously, Jamil suddenly let go of the whip at this moment

, the major used too much force, and even leaned back and fell off the horse.

With a "bang", the sound of the heavy object falling to the ground made the surrounding onlookers couldn't help laughing in a low voice.

The major blushed, got up angrily, and swiped his whip at Jamil.

With a "snap", Jamil held his whip for the second time, and his handsome face was now filled with anger.

Contrary to his gentle appearance in the past, he tightened his whip and said loudly: "The president sent troops here to protect the citizens of Emerai, to maintain this place.

The normal order is not for you to oppress the people, or is it that the new governor who has not yet appeared is not only cruel to the enemy, but also to his subjects?

Are the people inhuman? "

"You are so brave, you dare to even talk about the governor!" The major shouted angrily.

"Amelai is a city of free speech. I don't remember the President issuing an order restricting our discussion of the military."

"You!" The major turned pale with anger, and suddenly pulled out the pistol from his waist.

"Ahhh!" Some of the onlookers screamed, and some turned around and started to run away.

But Jamil looked at the major without fear. The two ends of the whip were held by the two without giving in to each other, and it was tightened in the air, just like it was tightened in the square.

The air seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder everywhere.

The major didn't fire, but his hand was shaking slightly with anger.

At this time, a series of uniform footsteps sounded from the front of the square, and after a while, a group of soldiers with guns on their backs ran over and quickly took the major and

Jamil surrounded.

"Major Hagrid, may I ask what happened? The governor saw that you haven't shown up for a long time, so he specially sent us to pick you up." Captain Cliff King, the team leader

He gave Hagrid a military salute respectfully.

Hagrid York put down the hand holding the gun, with a hint of hostility on his face, he pulled back the whip vigorously, pointed at Jamil and said, "Catch him.

'

"I didn't break the law, you don't have the right to arrest me." Jamil said loudly, but it's a pity that his thoughts are too simple. In today's society,

The army does not need the support of the law to arrest people.

"Take him away." Captain Cliff raised his voice and gave Jamil a contemptuous look.

Dare to despise the authority of the army and provoke the major, this kid seems to be impatient.

"My lord, you can't catch Jamil, he didn't make a mistake!" Uncle George tried to dissuade the soldiers who swarmed up.

"Whoever talks nonsense, arrest them together!" Captain Cliff ordered coldly.

For a moment, all the remaining citizens in the square looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to speak for Jamil, even Aunt Mary and the others just bit their lips

, looking at Jamil with a worried face.

"Why are you arresting me!" Jamil swung away a soldier who was trying to grab his arm.

Although he was unable to join the army due to physical reasons, Jamil has not relaxed his training over the years. His fighting skills

Very good, even if a veteran who has served for many years faces him, he may not be able to defeat him.

The soldiers who tried to catch him were defeated by him one by one, and panda eyes appeared on several faces.

Major Hagrid raised his gun again, and with a "bang", the bullet hit the ground at Jamil's feet, making a crater in the ground.

"If you dare to move again, the next shot will blow your head off." Hagrid sneered, and it didn't look like he was joking.

Jamil clenched his fists angrily, but he knew very well that if he didn't want to die here in vain, he had to go with them.

The soldiers took Jamil away, and the square returned to calm, only the anxious neighbors began to discuss how to save Jamil.

"Teach him a lesson!" After Major Hagrid left this order viciously, he left the cell in the basement of the city hall and went to the headquarters on the second floor.

Superintendent's office.

The office is very quiet. The all-black furniture makes the room look very cold and hard. Just stepping in, you can feel that the owner should be

A ruthless man.

The newly appointed governor was sitting behind a huge desk, waiting for him with a blank face.

Hagrid only glanced at the other party, and he clearly felt the other party's displeasure. He bowed respectfully, bowed his head and said, "Governor, I'm sorry.

There was a little accident on the way. "

No one answered, and the office was as quiet as if Hagrid was alone.

The wind blew the light beige curtains, and the curtains lifted slightly, passing by the motionless person sitting behind the desk from time to time.

Short gray hair, light gray pupils like glass balls, handsome and cold facial curves are tight, thin and sexy lips maintain a straight angle

Speed, without the slightest increase.

The man just sat there, and the cold aura emanating from his whole body made Hagrid's forehead drip with cold sweat.

Time passed by, and although the cool wind kept blowing into the study, Hagrid's military uniform was soaked through quickly.

After a long time, so long that Hagrid felt as if a century had passed, the man said, "If you keep me waiting so long next time, you won't need two

No legs, they can't walk fast anyway. "

"Yes, there won't be another time." Hagrid found his voice trembling when he answered.

The man's sharp sword-like eyes finally stopped staring at him, but landed on a document on the desk, and said coldly: "Investigation results.

'

"No one named Jamil Hawke has been found in Dosa or nearby cities, Governor, are you sure the person you are looking for is in Dosa or nearby?

'

Hagrid felt cold sweat dripping down his brow again as he answered, and he knew his superiors would not like hearing the answer, but he didn't.

It wasn't his fault that he had found someone.

The man fell into silence again, and the way his eyes were lowered exuded an air of calm and prestige, which made Hagrid dare not look up at him at all.

After 10 minutes, the man spoke again: "Blonde hair and blue eyes, 23 years old, thin body, first find out all the people who meet these three conditions in Emerai

. '

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now." After Hagrid finished speaking, he walked out of the study as if fleeing, and heaved a sigh of relief at the door before calling his subordinates to go out together.

Find someone.

In the office, the man stood up and walked to the window, looking thoughtfully at the large purple calamus flowers planted in the courtyard outside the window.

In the long memory, the only memory that was not spent in a fight was that person sitting at the door of the abandoned warehouse, looking at the opponent

Facing the abandoned flower bed, he said: "It would be great if I could grow flowers. I want to plant calamus flowers nearby." 』

He no longer remembers why he mentioned this matter in the first place. What is still deep in his memory is the longing expression on that person's face when he said this sentence.

In the prison cell located underground, the sound of "cracking" whips kept ringing, and Major Hagrid viciously waved the whip in his hand, whipping him hard one after another.

Looking at the man chained to the rack.

For three whole days, the man did not beg for mercy once under the torture.

A cry of pain.

"Bastard, I'll make you hard! Let's see how long you can be hard!" Hagrid angrily picked up the salt water that was on the side, and poured it on.

"Clatter!", the iron chain that locked Jamil trembled violently, his neck was raised suddenly, but he still clenched his teeth, and did not say what the other party wanted.

heard the voice.

Inside the cell, the two guards looked at Jamil in shock, their eyes widened and they couldn't speak.

Even if a professionally trained spy or soldier arrives here, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand such torture for three consecutive days. What is this man?

How can people persist to this extent?

Hagrid was trembling with anger, walked up to Jamil, and slapped him with a "slap".

Jamil's head was tilted to one side, cold sweat dripped down his pale face like water, but the light in those sea-blue eyes never dimmed at all.

light.

Jamil stared at Hagrid with eyes full of stubbornness and hatred.

"Major Hagrid, the governor is about to leave for the square." Outside the cell, a guard carefully reported.

Hagrid turned his head angrily, and said angrily, "Have you not found the person the Governor is looking for?"

"Yes, we have searched almost all of Emerai, but we haven't found anyone who fully meets those three conditions."

"Damn it! If this continues, sooner or later we'll be out of luck." Hagrid said angrily, and kicked Jamil in the stomach.

On the ground, he vented his anger fiercely.

Jamil snorted and lowered his head, as if he didn't have the strength to maintain his eye contact with Hagrid.

Hagrid turned and walked outside the cell, stopped halfway, turned to look at Jamil, and sneered, "Speaking of which, although you

He is very popular, but he has an angelic face, huh?If I throw you there now, it should make me angry, right? "

Jamil slowly raised his head, staring at Hagrid with intense anger in his eyes, having endured three days of torture without ever entering the water meter, now

He is holding on with the last will.

He vaguely guessed where Hagrid was talking about, and the terrible memories that spread from the depths of his memory at that moment made him unable to utter a word.

Hagrid turned his head to the two guards who were still in the cell and said, "Throw him to the death row, I want to see, after he is taken in turn by those people."

, Do you still have such ambition? "

After finishing speaking, Hagrid turned around and left, behind him, Jamil suddenly burst into a roar: "Bastard, you despicable and shameless villain, I will kill you!

'

"Kill me? Let's talk about it after you survive." Leaving a sneer, Hagrid left the underground cell.

As soon as the governor came down to the hall on the first floor, Hagrid went up to meet him cautiously, and opened the gate of the city hall for the governor.

Today is the day when the new governor officially meets the citizens for the first time. The meeting will be held in the square, and they are planning to go there now.

"Governor, please spare Jamil!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the gate, he heard loud voices from all around. More than 20 citizens crowded outside the iron gate of the city hall, shouting loudly.

"Governor, Jamil is here to protect us, please let him go."

"Your Excellency, Mrs. Vincent is sick in bed and needs Jamil's care. Please don't lock him up anymore."

"Governor, Jamil has done a lot for us, he is a hero in our hearts, you can't allow your subordinates to detain him like this for no reason

down. "

"Your Excellency..."

As soon as Aunt Mary and the others saw the new governor coming out, they immediately shouted loudly.

It's been three days, it's been three days since Jamil was taken away. After much deliberation, they couldn't think of any other way except to collectively plead for Jamil's life.

Major Hagrid's face immediately changed, his eyes widened, and as soon as he raised his arm, he wanted to ask the guards to drive away this group of ignorant citizens.

The governor, who was wearing a dark black military uniform, suddenly spoke, his voice was as cold as ice, but there was a trace of surprise, "Who are you talking about? Which Jamil?

? "

Hearing these words, a white light suddenly exploded in Hagrid's mind, Jamil?The man who damned contradicted him was called Jamil?

Isn't the person the Governor has been looking for called Jamil Hawke?And... Hagrid's complexion immediately turned into a dead gray color, with blond hair and blue eyes,

23 years old, skinny build, what the hell did he do! ?

When Aunt Mary saw the Governor speak, she immediately replied: "Governor, we are talking about Jamie Vincent, who contradicted you three days ago.

The Major Hagrid beside you was captured by your guards. "

Fortunately, not Jamie Hawke!Just as Hagrid was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly met the governor's gaze.

Those light gray eyes seemed to be two icebergs that would not melt for thousands of years, and the coldness that emanated from them made Hagrid stiffen all over for a moment, his whole body froze.

Start trembling.

"where is he."

The extremely clear four words penetrated into Hagrid's ears, making his scalp completely numb.

He suddenly remembered what order he gave before leaving, and the blood in his body froze at that moment.

"At... I threw him on death row."

A gust of wind swept past his eyes, and the governor, who had never been moved by anything, opened his eyes slightly, turned around and rushed into the city hall.

Throwing people who don't like it into the death row for those condemned to play maliciously is a method of torture that is almost commonplace in the army.

When Hagrid followed the governor into the death row, the scene in front of him made his eyes widen in shock.

Obviously, he has stretched to the limit, and Jamil, who is on the verge of a coma, is still stubbornly leaning against the corner of the death row, waving his fist

, kicking his legs to keep those prisoners from getting close to him.

He looked very embarrassed, his clothes were hanging on his body like rags, and the wounds on his body did not look like flesh and blood because they were washed by salt water

Blurred, but still startling.

His legs trembled slightly, and his body was barely supported by the wall behind him, but his expression was very stubborn, and the light in his eyes shot out.

The light is so bright that it can almost illuminate the darkness in the death row.

Perhaps it was because of his posture that the death row prisoners around him did not rush forward, but looked at him in surprise.

No one who has been thrown into the death row can be so strong.

Hagrid noticed that the governor, who had been icy up to now, seemed to soften the tense corners of his mouth the moment he saw Jamil like this.

some.

"Let him out."

The icy voice was the same as before, and Hagrid couldn't help shivering, feeling that the change in the governor's expression he saw just now was simply an illusion.

Jamil was released, he sweated profusely, and his shaky footsteps lost the strength to support him the moment they led him out of the death row.

Hagrid was surprised to see their iron-blooded major general bend his knees, catch Jamil condescendingly, and then hugged him horizontally.

Without looking at anyone, the governor left the cell with Jamil in his arms.

Back in the hall, he walked towards the second floor without stopping. Hagrid knew that he should choose to shut up at this moment, but he couldn't help but speak: "

Governor, meeting with citizens..."

"not going."

The cold three words came from the stairs, Hagrid and a group of guards in the hall were stunned, why not go?To what extent is he willful?

Can you say these three words without hesitation?

"The citizens at the gate..."

This time, those who went upstairs didn't even have to respond, leaving only a vague sense of impatience in the air.

"Major, what should we do now?"

Captain Cliff walked over with a nervous expression. He naturally saw the person in the governor's arms just now. Now, he and Hagrid were thinking about the same thing.

The problem is that they have a few days left to live.

Obviously, Jamil Vincent is Jamil Hawke, the man the governor has been looking for these days.

Although they didn't know what the governor's purpose in looking for this person was, it seemed that no matter what it was, they had committed a big taboo.

"Inform the citizens that the governor has something to do temporarily, and the meeting will be rescheduled. As for the people at the door, tell them that the governor has released Jamil, but because he was imprisoned

The governor decided to let him stay here temporarily to heal his injuries. "

"Yes, I understand, but Major, do you think the governor will..."

"Don't ask me, I don't know." Hagrid replied grimly, God knows he's so nervous now, someone better be able to tell

What kind of punishment will he face?

Based on what he knew about the iron-blooded major general, even if the major general gave them two bullets, he wouldn't think it was a bit strange.

Hagrid gritted his teeth as Jemil's angry roar sounded in his mind. Perhaps, it is not certain that he will really die at the hands of this kid.

Damn it, why didn't he realize earlier that that bastard was blond and blue-eyed?
