Chapter 18
The silence of a small potato
Because of the existence of the space dusts, the sky of the East Forest Region would never have the bright, beautiful and dark blue like the painting picture. Of course, it’s also hard to have the blazing sun to let people feel dazzled. But right at this moment, Sheilor thought that he was shined dazzled by the sun. Otherwise, in the same quiet as yesterday alley of the Bell Tower Street, how come there were a large group of ferocious, armed to the teeth and cold like the knife soldiers? The more absurd thing was, why would these soldiers put the muzzles to aim at him?
A wearing black cotton mask soldier seemed to say a few words to him, but the words became the buzzing sounds after they got into Sheilor’s ears. Because he didn’t regain the consciousness at all, he opened his mouth numbly and looked at all the things around him muddleheaded.
With “Bang” the sound, a soldier hit him in the head with the gunstock ruthlessly, a stream of blood flowed out, Sheilor had his body a shake, he didn’t fall to the ground, but the fishy smell of the blood and the pain on the left head made him woke up, he made sure that he himself was in a very absurd scene, a group of heavily armed soldiers… were aiming at him with the guns!
The still pointing at the temple that barrel was incomparably ice-cold and hard.
Sheilor was born calm and staid, but he still was just only a seventeen and a half years old orphan after all, when facing the near at hand muzzle, thought of maybe one of the casual movement by him, probably would let his good head to be shot to a lousy messy half watermelon by the metal bullet from the barrel, he then felt tremble with fear, so he shuddered and shivered, the crotch place had the spasm like the current passed through, not bad… he didn’t wet his pants.
“Name?” The buzzing sounds in the mouth of the been impatient soldier finally became the clear and bloody question closely, Sheilor answered with the trembling voice subconsciously, “Sheilor.”
A flat metal detector reached to behind Sheilor’s neck, stuck closely to his skin, a blob of came from the heart chill made his skin arose countless small protuberances once again. In the “Dee Dee” sounds, in the shortest time the data collector read the chip data in his neck, sent back to the data analysis base, confirmed his identity and all the file record from the day one since he was born.
“The target 2 confirmed.” That questioning soldier spoke the words in the communication device coldly, and then grabbed Sheilor’s hair, pushed him into an armored vehicle behind the entrance to the alley with extreme violence.
Sheilor didn’t have any struggle, because he knew that the struggle was useless. Although the showing physical strength of that grabbing him soldier was not stronger than those buffalos at all, but the deterrent force of those more than ten cold barrels around him were really too big. He didn’t shout for help neither, he always wanted to pass the sergeant examination of the Ministry of National Defense in these years, he had certain kind of understanding about the army, of course, he could tell it out clearly, these silent and devastated soldiers were true soldiers, rather than those bold and dared to pretend to be the federal troops kidnappers.
But he still really felt insulted, because he was clenched the hair and pulled on the ground, this thing itself was a very insulting position.
Just in a very short time, the blood full of face Sheilor had already determined what these soldiers came for, it looked like that the identity of uncle Fengyu had been exposed. But uncle Fengyu had already hidden in this city for more than ten years, but why he would be found the trail by the federal military suddenly? And he was just only a mechanic fled out from the army, but why he would attract so many heavily armed soldiers to come to arrest him?
The responding for the arresting Sheilor was the garrison of the East Forest police, after they pulled this youngster into the car, tightened his wrists with the special plastic bracelet directly, covered a layer of black cloth on his face, and then paid no attention to him any longer.
The military car moved, Sheilor felt a burst of burning pain on his wrists, the wound on his forehead was still running out the blood. Such rough treatment, let the youngster clearly understood that he was facing the really ruthless state apparatus, he wouldn’t make any meaningless resistance, he just calculated in his heart quietly, what the exact destination of this military car was any way.
The military car stopped, no soldier would care for this poor youngster, there was not even any sound came out, it’s thus clear that the tough quality of the federal troops was. Just in this long and hard to endure silence, the shrinking in the corner of the car Sheilor looked as poor as an abandoned shrimp.
…………
…………
The angry footsteps treaded broken a caisson outside of the military car, the angry voice criticized all the soldiers couldn’t raise their heads around the military car, “you kept watching on him, why would you still let him run away?”
What people run away? Sheilor turned his body slightly, he prayed who this officer talked about was uncle Fengyu inwardly to himself secretly.
Colonel Lake took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose, the anger fire could burn the tens of heavily armed soldiers around him to death enough, but he forced himself to repress his own emotion, because after all who came to cooperate with his action on the ground were the East Forest garrison soldiers, besides this action, they were not under his lead.
He had enough reason to be angry, in order to catch or kill that named Yufeng mechanic, the Federation had already prepared several months for that, the ground monitoring didn’t have any problems all the time, but when his mecha squad just arrived on the surface of the planet by taking the warship, why would the mechanic have disappeared from the repair shop on the fourth block of the Vanilla Avenue suddenly?
It’s three o’clock of the afternoon, it’s the most languid time of the human being, and it’s also the scheduled time to start the assault. But right before the assault, they lost the target suddenly, Lake had a hint of cold feeling in his heart.
In the temporary camp for the action outside of the fourth block, a huge ultra thin screen had already been set up, there were countless light spots moving on it or fast or slow, and that rounded by the black line, marked as target 1, was appearing and disappearing on the light screen, and it’s unpredictable.
Lake looked at the light screen coldly, he kept silent for a long time. He knew the whole process of this action, from the beginning when the Charter Bureau found that electric shock stick, in the earlier stage of the federal investigation, could find the deputy director Paul Long of the West River state’s second police station easily, and then checked the leader Levi of the orphan gang out, and then checked Levi’s good friend Sheilor out, and locked the target on that boss of the repair shop finally.
They could rule out Sheilor from the data of the chip very easily, that repair shop boss of course would be Yufeng. But Lake didn’t think of, this most wanted man of the Federation would have the ability to avoid the splendor of the First Charter unexpectedly. In the spreading all over the human world electronic monitoring network, he slipped away below the eyelids of the monitoring staffs.
The East Forest Region was too far away from the Capital planet, the monitoring of the central computer couldn’t do it the real-time, it had at least more than four minutes delay. That mechanic obviously made use of this kind of delay, outsmarted everybody. And the other party might have a kind of device in hand to shield the signal of the chip in the nape temporarily.
Once he thought of this, Lake got his mood more heavily, he now could totally understand why the central computer of the Charter Bureau would list this thing as the first grade, why he would receive the command that he could kill the target directly. A couldn’t be caught and punished by the splendor of the First Charter criminal, it’s really a character too horrible, if let the truth of this matter spread into the human society, it’s afraid of only one thing that it would arouse the unappeasable wa
ve.
“The target 1 had been injured when he was running away.” An officer of the garrison command reported, “the whole planet has now blockading the landing and take-off entirely, he can’t flee out of here. Even there are four minutes of time difference, but the ring of the encirclement would be smaller and smaller, at most one more night, we could catch him.”
“I can’t wait for another night.” Lake said with the cold face, “where is the apprentice of the repair shop?”
The blood all over body Sheilor was brought up by some people, Lake wrinkled his eyebrows slightly, he was not very satisfied with the means of these East Forest colleagues. But he knew that the state of the affair was in emergency, of course he wouldn’t say anything more, he looked at the youngster and asked with the cold voice, “I want to know, where your boss could be hiding.”
The black cloth was torn down, the spotlight of the indoor made Sheilor narrow his both eyes, he looked at this colonel in front of him and kept silent.
A fist hit him in the stomach ruthlessly, the fierce pain made him spit out nearly, however, Sheilor was still narrowing his both eyes, he looked at these soldiers around him and kept his stubborn silence.
