Conquering alien worlds starts from the game

The 43 soldiers were detained at the Correctional Office under the Military Jurisdiction Division of the Innatrix City Defense Army Headquarters.

The Correctional Office of the Military Judiciary, which is under the direct supervision of the Gendarmerie, is obviously not a good place... Of course, after all, it is used to detain soldiers trained by the Bartles family who made mistakes. The environment is better than that of the Westham Militia. The cell is still much better.

The special single room where 25-year-old Sam Hank was detained not only had a toilet, a sink, but also a small single bed covered with starched sheets and duvet covers. It was more like a living place than some factory workers’ dormitories.

But Sam Hank is not likely to be calm just because the detention environment is better...

When the military police in white caps and white military uniforms took him out of a single cell and brought him into the interrogation room, facing the interrogator of the military justice with sleek hair and meticulous uniform, Sam couldn't help being half aggrieved Half shouted angrily: "What exactly do you want to ask? Do you suspect that we have betrayed Innadris? I have already said that we have not done that!"

"Calm down, Sam Hank, losing your temper is not good for you." The interrogator, whose face was smoother than his hair, smirked, "Repeat your answer again, Sam Hank, you still plan to gather Kind, return to Westham?"

Sam was about to explode, and his face was livid: "Sir, please allow me to point out your wrong words, we are all soldiers of the city defense army, and we were forced to retire because the upper echelon misunderstood us. All of us can prove to each other , We never did any act of betraying Innadali or the City Defense Army during our captivity, please don’t call us ‘similar’, thank you!”

"Okay, Sam." The interrogator said calmly, "Then why did you return to Westham? Isn't that the sad place where you were captured, imprisoned, and shamed?"

Sam took a deep breath, tried to control his anger, and said with deep resentment: "That's because we were forced to retire, sir! We have nowhere to go without the city defense army!"

"I think you should know how hard it is to find a decent job in Innatrix. My family has owned a tailor shop for several generations, and I haven't touched sewing since I joined the city defense army at the age of 17. If you don’t want to learn tailoring all over again, an ordinary person like me can only pay someone to arrange for me to work in a factory besides being a mercenary!”

"The current world is really difficult, especially when it comes to finding a job." The interrogator nodded his head in agreement, and spread his hands, "But at least Inadoli has a job opportunity, Sam, you and I both know about Westem. None. There is not a factory there, and there are very few decent shops and workshops."

"That was before, sir." Sam tried his best to be sincere. "Now Westham has a lot of job opportunities. They are rebuilding the town's main road and transforming the former brothel into a formal factory workshop. I have seen the bean product workshop with my own eyes." There are many advanced machines that can squeeze soybeans into oil, and the remaining okara cakes can be made into delicious tofu. I brought back some tofu for my family to taste. They are recruiting workers everywhere, and they don’t need to spend money. You can apply for registration if you ask, besides, there are still many vacancies for operators in Westham Town Hall..."

Sam Hank is a relatively smart young man. He never mentioned the name of "Wagner Peet" and bypassed the appalling fact that the supreme consul of Westham Town Hall is an undead. The other party thought he was lying, and he wisely kept silent about Westem's employment conditions.

Sam, who tried to impress the other party with his sincerity, was doomed to be disappointed...

After hearing Sam's "excuse", the interrogator did not give a clear answer, but asked him to wait patiently for the news, and then asked the military police to take Sam back to the cell.

As Sam was being led out of the hallway, he found another brother being ushered down another hallway by two military police officers into the same interrogation room.

Sam couldn't help turning his head, feeling very disturbed...

Two hours later, Sam was taken out of the cell again by the military police and brought before the greasy interrogator.

"You can leave Inadoli." Seeing Sam, the interrogator said, "You can bring your family and those who you think need to be taken away. Sam, Captain Horn will give you half a day to get ready." Everything, after leaving, you and the people you took away will never be allowed to return to Innadri, understand?"

"What?!" Sam was shocked, "I don't understand, sir! Isn't this exile? But we didn't do anything wrong!"

The interrogator's smirk remained the same, but his eyes and tone were colder than before: "Sam Hank, are you questioning Commander Horn and His Excellency III's order?"

Sam shuddered, and his heart sank.

In Innadril there is only one noble lord who is called the third—Adela III of House Barteles!

"No, sir, I didn't mean that." Sam closed his eyes and lowered his head in despair.

Sam's father died young, and his mother, Mrs Hank, ran a tailor shop in Mary Street Market.

Mrs. Hank is very good at mending pettiskirts and shirts, and can repair them so seamlessly that even if you look closely, you can't see the repair marks. She is very popular with middle-class customers in the few blocks around Mary Street, who not only rely on needlework for a living He took care of Sam and his two younger siblings, and raised Sam to be tall and strong.

The person Sam is most grateful for is his mother, Mrs. Hank. If his mother hadn’t inherited his grandfather’s handicraft work, he would never have enjoyed a carefree childhood and youth. Work in a workshop.

Sam always brings home his generous salary. With the money he keeps getting back, Mrs. Hank's life is much easier. In recent years, she doesn't have to stay up late and work like she used to, and she has been cured. Eyes, there is still room to add a layer of beautiful tulle to the skirts of myself and my daughter.

During the period when Sam was captured and lost contact, Mrs. Hank almost cried out her eyes, which were finally cured. If her relatives and friends did not try their best to dissuade her, she might have taken the risk to go to Westham to see her son; son It was Mrs. Hank's happiest thing to be able to return safely. After being forced to retire, Sam was depressed, and it was Mrs. Hank who kept encouraging him to cheer up.

Seeing Sam being escorted back by the military police, Mrs. Hank immediately ran out of the store and hugged her son tightly.

"Great, Sam is finally back." The old neighbors in the shop next door heard Mrs. Hank's cry and came out to check on the situation. They were very happy for their family when they saw Sam taken away by the gendarmerie.

The military police escorting Sam looked indifferently at the onlookers, without any intention of hiding anything for Sam, and read to Mrs. Hank the exile order issued by the Military Justice Department for the soldier Sam Hank.

The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar in an instant, and Qi Qi hurriedly backed away, afraid of being implicated by Hanke's family, and Mrs. Hank, a little woman, was so frightened that she almost couldn't stand still.

"How did this happen?" Mrs. Hank was terrified and tried to plead with the military police. "Gentlemen, is there some misunderstanding here? My Sam has never done anything wrong. Our family has always been honest and responsible. We Nothing wrong?"

"It's Jim Hank's own request, ma'am." The gendarme shook off Mrs. Hank's hand impatiently. "They're going back to Westham."

"I, we won't go, Sam, we won't go to Westham, let's stay here, okay?" Mrs. Hank pulled her son in panic, pleading.

Sam was silent.

"This is an order from Your Excellency the Commander and Your Excellency the Third, ma'am." The gendarme said sternly, "It's not something you can easily pass by if you want to go back on your word. Where will you put Your Excellency the Third!"

Hearing the title of His Excellency III, Mrs. Hank suddenly felt dizzy.

The next half day was like a nightmare for Sam himself and the Hank family.

They had to pack up their belongings and leave Innadrie before dark, and were permanently prohibited from returning—such a strict exile order that everyone avoided their family; when Mrs. Hank cried and tried to take the When he gave away his belongings, all the neighbors who had lived with him for decades closed their doors tightly, for fear of having any relationship with their family.

Mrs. Hank took home the undelivered belongings in frustration, and cried to Sam, who was guarded by the military police all the time: "When I sent out the tofu fruits you brought back, they were not what they are now."

Sam shook his head, didn't say a word, just put all his energy into packing the luggage.

Before the sky darkened, the carriage guarded by the gendarmerie came to Mary Street. The gendarmerie roughly drove the Hank family, who had packed their belongings hastily, into the carriage, and sent them out of the city with another family of soldiers who also lived on Mary Street. .

Mrs. Hank held her own luggage in one hand, and held her little daughter in the corner of the carriage with the other, looking out of the window in panic at the old street where she had lived for decades.

None of the neighbors came out to see them off, only a few befriended ladies quietly opened a corner of the window, carefully and secretly waved handkerchiefs to them.

Mrs. Hank cried again.

All 43 soldiers and their families were driven out of the city before dark and left near the Luoma Market Square outside the city gate. Some relatives and friends rushed to see them off after getting the news. For a while, Luoma Market cried Shocking...

It’s okay for a small family like Sam’s family to be separated because the elders of the older generation have passed away. Some soldiers are the kind of big family where the oldest male master is still alive and there is no separation. People were all expelled from the city because of one person's ties, and the level of chaos was simply indescribable—it was still in the mule and horse market, and several families fought violently because of internal quarrels.

In the chaos, a few veterans stood up and asked all the families to gather together, and rented a cart from the mule and horse market to move overnight—in any case, these soldiers knew about Westem's situation, and they all believed it was here. Westem can solve all problems.

Some soldiers' families had already accepted their fate, and some soldiers' family situations were more complicated. When they talked about relocating to Westham, they became noisy again.

Amid the quarrel, the extended families of several soldiers separated on the spot, some of them went to Westham with them, and some of them went to other villages and towns to make a living.

Sam found a family to rent a carriage together. The belongings of the two families were loaded into the carriage. The women and children squeezed into the carriage, and the men could only follow the carriage on foot. Suddenly, there were too many people renting a carriage, and the rent-a-car market at the Luma Market took the opportunity to increase their prices. Everyone is reluctant to pay that extra money.

After tossing until it was almost eight or nine o'clock in the evening, the bloated convoy started to set off.

Before leaving Inadili, Mrs. Hank, who squeezed her little daughter into the corner of the carriage, couldn't help but look back at the familiar and unfamiliar west gate of Inadeli, and burst into tears: "Your uncles can't even come to see you off... …If I had known earlier, I would not have given them the fine salt and spices you brought back, and selling them to grocery stores is better than giving them to such people.”

Sam, who was walking beside the carriage, raised his hand to hold his mother's cold hand, and said softly, "It's okay, Mom, those salt and spices are nothing at all...When you get to Westham, you can have as much as you want."

Apart from his mother, the second person Sam was grateful to was Mr. Gould, the housekeeper of the Bartleys family.

If he hadn't been seen by Mr. Gould who happened to be passing by in a carriage five years ago when he was running on the street carrying a big bag while helping his family deliver goods, then he would not have been able to jump up the ranks, from the eldest son of a tailor to an annual income Junior middle class over twenty gold coins.

Among the captured soldiers, Sam may be the one who hates Westam the most and regrets this unfortunate encounter-he is very unwilling to lose his golden job in the city defense army, and he very much hopes to serve in the city defense army all the time. until he retires.

Returning to Inadoli with his companions, he waited for a few days with fluke, and finally he was ordered to retire from the headquarters. Sam only felt that there was darkness in front of him...

He is only 25 years old, and he can still serve in the city defense army for at least 20 years. He could have received hundreds of gold coins in salary and subsidies, and a pension after retirement, but all of this is gone. Six gold coins Severance pay put an end to all his ambitions.

Sam was so depressed that he drank at home for a few days and didn't wake up until he found out that his mother had secretly lowered the living standards of everyone else except him. Westem went to work to earn money and give his family a better life.

It never occurred to him that this choice, which Sam thought was unusual no matter how he looked at it, would land him in the Military Judiciary Correctional Service and lead to his and his family being deported and exiled.

As much as Sam once yearned to worship the Bartleth family and respect Mr. Gould who changed his destiny, how much resentment he has in his heart now.
