I maintain law and order in the feudal world

In a small building at No. [-] Hengjie, a woman with hair wrapped in a long brown cloth walked around the room anxiously, biting her nails constantly, with hesitation and fear on her face. On the side is a five or six-year-old boy with curly hair sitting on a stool, his big black and white eyes moving back and forth following his mother's movements.

In the end, the woman couldn't bear it anymore, hugged her son and asked, "Xiao Shi, your father may come home today, shall we pick him up? It may be dangerous if we go, but what if your father is real?" The one was released, you said... shall we pick up your father?"

The woman bit her lip, she remembered that yesterday after dark, the door of their house was knocked suddenly, the woman was startled at that time, she hugged her son tightly and hid, in Ansai and at night don't open the door casually is everyone common sense.

She hugged her son and didn't make a sound, but the knocking on the door didn't stop. People outside even said that he was the city guard and had to inform Li Shishi's family in person.

Hearing about the moat, the woman became even more frightened, but Li Shishi was her husband, and she really wanted to know about her husband. After some struggles, she hid her son in the cabinet and fumbled for him from the kitchen stove. He took out a handful of ashes and smeared it on his face, and then carefully opened a crack in the door. The people outside were wearing yellow uniforms, and they really belonged to the city guards!

Before she had any other reactions, the moat team asked her if she was Li Shiyi's wife. The woman nodded, and the moat team told her that tomorrow was the day her husband Li Shiyi would be acquitted. Her husband will be released at nine o’clock. I hope she can come to the moat to pick her husband up. After talking about the moat team asking her if she will be there, she agrees indiscriminately out of fear, and waits until the moat team leaves and closes the door Only then did her mind turn, and she realized what kind of news the moat team had told her that her husband Li Shiyi would be acquitted tomorrow!

Whether this news is true or not, she really doesn't know, but everyone in Ansaihe knows one thing - people who enter the prison in the moat are equivalent to being sentenced to death. Since she was born, she has never heard There are examples of acquittals in the prison in the moat. Her husband is just a low-class person like her. How could he be acquitted?

"Let's pick up Dad quietly."

The woman who fell into memory was awakened by her son's voice. She gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay! Let's pick up Dad quietly!"

Saying this, the woman thought about it, anyway, the moat team knew where they lived, and if she wanted to kill them, she could kill them anytime, so she took a gamble this time!

At the same time, more than 100 family members on Ansaihe's West Street, Zhongyang Second Street, and Hengjie No. [-] and No. [-] are all caught in such entanglements. No one thinks that the news notified by Mocheng last night is true, and even several The family members felt that their husbands, sons, younger brothers, and older brothers were already dead.

Although their bodies were not found in the mass graves, such things are very normal. The mass graves are the most frequent haunts of Timberwolves. I don’t know how many people who died in the moat were thrown there, and the bodies disappeared. up.

But the moat team personally came to inform them of the news, and even many of them agreed to this matter out of fear of the moat team. Although they didn't believe the news from the moat team at all, they still had to come to the gate of the moat team before the time notified by the moat team.

Nearly 100 people stood in front of the gate of the moat. This spectacular scene attracted other people to stop. Someone asked: "Hey, are you looking for death? So many people gathered in front of the moat, you are dying !"

A gray-haired old man was leaning on a wooden cane. Hearing this, he smiled wryly, "It was the guards who asked us to come here."

The person who asked the question immediately showed sympathy and said, "Bless you." After that, there was nothing else to say.

After the onlookers knew the ins and outs, they all looked at these more than 100 people with sympathy, and even Ansai and a one-year-old child would not believe such a thing as acquittal.

Compared with this possibility, more people think that these people may have been conscripted to dig soil outside the city. This speculation was immediately widely recognized. Secretly, the entire Ansaihe people didn't think the moat team could last long, and now they really summoned the lower class to dig the soil for them.

"But there are still a lot of old men and old women inside. The moat team would not choose these people for arresting people and digging soil."

Someone raised an objection, and the people around looked at the old men and women in the crowd. This is true, the entire Ansai and the lower classes are under the rule of the moat team. If they really want to go out to dig, the moat team will not Maybe find these old men and women.

After thinking about it, the people around looked at the hundred people with more sympathy.

"Their family members are locked in the prison of the moat. Maybe this time the moat called them to kill them."

Someone whispered an extremely absurd guess, but it was this absurd guess that was recognized by most people, because the moat team has always done things like this and cannot be inferred from common sense. They kill people if they want to, no matter what the reason is When and how.

"It's really a crime. God's punishment has come, but the city guards still do such a thing. Aren't they really afraid that the gods will destroy Ansaihe?"

"Shh, don't say such things, if you are heard by the moat, you will be finished!"

These people have lowered their voices, but the family members of the prisoners standing on the edge still heard their discussions. Look, with the passage of time, almost no one still holds the idea that their family members can really be released. Even if someone had such unrealistic fantasies before coming, but after coming, standing in this desperate Among the more than 100 people, the unrealistic fantasy immediately burst like a bubble.

"Mom, I'm afraid."

An immature child's voice sounded, and the woman in a headscarf held the child tightly in her arms, comforting her: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Dad is coming out soon."

"Well! I haven't seen Dad for a long time, I miss Dad so much!"

The people next to him were hesitant to speak, with complicated expressions on their faces. No one was willing to speak out and cruelly break the child's expectations, but the fact...

"patta-patta-"

This sound is almost the nightmare of all Ansai and the inferior people. The moment the sound appeared, and the nearly 200 people who were onlookers fell silent in an instant, everyone looked nervously and fearfully at the empty gate of the moat. The sound of swallowing saliva came and went.

As the sound became louder, a figure in a yellow uniform appeared at the gate of the moat. Gudong, almost everyone swallowed at the same time. See.

067 scanned the people in front of him, and immediately counted the number of people present. There were 210 people, 60 of whom were standing in the distance. It seemed that they were not the family members of the prisoner.

In Interstellar, the prisoner’s family members will be notified before releasing the prisoner. Although the release time will not change due to the arrival time of the family members, it can be regarded as a reassurance for the released prisoners. Every prisoner in the outside world will have a new sense of timidity, and family members can give them the greatest sense of security.

The prisoners who were released before were arrested because of their special circumstances. One was taken into the moat with his daughter, and the other was Fan Shiwu because there was no record of his family's situation in his information. Sun and Sun, so they did not notify their families.

After yesterday's retrial was completed, almost all the prisoners were going to be released. Under such circumstances, the five security robots consciously worked overtime at night, went to their families according to their registered addresses, and told them that today's prisoners News of the acquittal.

It's just that the address registered by the moat team was inaccurate, and some family members' names were even filled in incorrectly. This put a huge burden on the work of the five security robots, and finally completed the task after midnight.

It was nine o'clock in the morning, and 067 was guarding the gate of the moat to maintain law and order. At the same time, he issued an order on the public channel: "Start releasing the prisoners."

068-071: "Received."

Soon the four prisoners were brought to the gate of the moat. They wore clean prison uniforms and had excited smiles on their faces. As soon as they stepped out of the gate of the moat, they saw the desperate and numb crowd in front of them. Just looking at their faces Looking at the expressions on his face, he didn't know for a while which of them was the one who was in prison.

"father!"

A cry of exclamation resounded in the crowd. Prisoner No. 002 at the head, that is, the old man, was taken aback for a moment, and then looked excitedly at the source of the sound. When he saw the figure in the crowd, he was completely frozen in place, and tears flowed from him. The corners of his eyes slipped, and he tremblingly said: "Six three, six three!"

A thin figure passed through the crowd and rushed to the dry old man. The short-haired woman was grinning clearly, but tears kept falling from her eyes.

The old man tremblingly stretched out his hand to touch her, but couldn't help but retract it when he saw his twisted and ugly right hand. The woman grabbed his hand and put it on her head, crying, "Dad, I finally See you."

The old man looked up and blinked his eyes, lowered his head and put his daughter in his arms, and said in a trembling voice, "Six-san, our father and daughter finally meet again."

The reunion of the father and daughter seemed to break some curse. The family members of the remaining three prisoners also rushed out of the crowd. The family members who thought they would die walked out with ease. No one thought of them. There is still a day to meet again, it is worth it, it is really worth it, even if the moat team draws out their knives to kill them at the next moment, they will not feel regretful, in Ansai and being able to die with the one they love Together, it might not be a kind of happiness.

The four prisoners were crying with their families in front of the gate of the moat. The golden sun shone on them, trying to give them warmth.
