Chapter 16: The Mist


I don't know why, since he saw the pile of warehouses that were burned to ruins, Zhang Tie, who was sitting in the carriage, had a bad premonition in his heart, and even he couldn't tell what it was, but suddenly he felt like a stone was pressed in his heart, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Who burned the warehouse destroyed the scene Is it possible that the fifteen people he killed that day may not be all of them, and there may be other people in the Helios Dynasty lurking in this city, and it should be possible for those lurkers to know that this warehouse is a secret stronghold for them.

But why did they burn down this place, and it was possible to destroy the evidence, but wouldn't it be too eye-catching to light a fire, and if there were really lurkers who hadn't been killed by themselves, what would those who found out that their companions had been wiped out if they were themselves, in that case, they would definitely run away as soon as possible, and they wouldn't stay in Brape at all, let alone set a fire.

I don't know if those corpses encountered this kind of thing in the fire, someone should have come to investigate the scene of the fire, if there are suddenly more than ten corpses at a fire scene, no matter where they are placed, they will not be ignored.

In the Norman Empire, when encountering the fire scene where the corpses were found, a yellow cordon would be drawn around the ruins according to the custom, and the cordon would generally remain for a long time, but just now, Zhang Tie did not see any cordon around the fire scene, does that mean that the corpses in the ruins are gone Today's weather is very good, but these kinds of questions make Zhang Tie feel as if he is suddenly covered with a layer of fog.

Because this matter involves Zhang Tie, and it involves the biggest secret that Zhang Tie doesn't want to be known, so Zhang Tie can't wait to ignore it, Zhang Tie always feels that the place that was burned to ruins reveals a strange feeling that makes him frightened.

Riding in a carriage to the neighborhood where Mr. and Mrs.

Green were, Zhang Tie got out of the carriage and made a mark on a street lamp on the side of the street, and then returned to the place where he rented from Mr. and Mrs.

Green.

As usual, at this time in the morning, Mr. and Mrs.

Green were carefully taking care of the vegetables they had planted in the vegetable garden in front of their downstairs window, perhaps because Zhang Tie had shaken them too much that night a week ago, and when he saw Zhang Tie this time, although Mr.

Green still took off his hat to say hello to him, he saw a trace of fear and hesitation on the faces of the old couple.

For two old men who had lived peacefully in a place like Brape for decades, Zhang Tie's cold-blooded decision to let a soldier cut off a man's head that night and his subsequent actions, even though Zhang Tie felt that he was already 100% merciful, in their eyes, this kind of Norman officer who could kill people at every turn still made them feel afraid.

Zhang Tie went upstairs, and as soon as he arrived at the staircase on the first floor, he saw the woman in the small couple living on the second floor carrying a vegetable basket and seemed to be going to buy vegetables, the woman also saw Zhang Tie, and then the woman's face turned white, and she was originally walking in the middle of the stairs and leaned stiffly on the edge of the stairs, squeezing out a smile on her face, waiting for Zhang Tie to go first.

Zhang Tie sighed helplessly, and then didn't say anything, and went up the stairs to his room on the fourth floor.

A few minutes later, Zhang Tie, who had changed into a new set of officer uniforms, left the residence of the Greens couple, stopped a carriage again on the road, and went straight to the base where the Ninth Equipment Section of the Integrated Logistics Support Office was located.

For Zhang Tie's arrival, Ensign Piping still showed the same welcome and enthusiasm as always, but he obviously misunderstood the meaning of Zhang Tie's arrival, shortly after Zhang Tie's arrival, in the office, Ensign Piping obediently took an account book, as well as a money bag, the gray income of the Ninth Equipment Section is once every two weeks, and Ensign Piping thought that Zhang Tie was here to get the money.

The pattern on the front and back of the ordinary standard gold coins of the Norman Empire is the iron alder and the crossed spear of the god of war, these two patterns, one is the national flower of the Norman Empire, and the other is the symbol of the state religion of the Norman Empire.

You can also go to find a lot of beautiful women, and then live the kind of days of rolling in the piles of women and gold coins like a pig every day, and now such days seem to be within reach, but Zhang Tie knows that if he doesn't work hard to run forward, maybe such days will not be passed in two days, and he and everything he has will be turned into powder.

In front of him, it seems that there is something in front of him that may bring him great trouble.

Seeing Zhang Tie sighing with the gold coin, Second Lieutenant Piping, who had been observing Zhang Tie's face, thought that Zhang Tie was a little dissatisfied and thought that the gold coin was less.

"Although these gold coins are not much, but this is already a tradition formed by the Ninth Equipment Section over the years, if you want to break this tradition, you may offend many people, and there are people who have sat in your position before who want to share a little more, but in the end, those people have not stayed in this position for a long time" Second Lieutenant Piping said carefully, after all, the wealth is moving, and he can get one percent of the profit, and he is always thinking about when he can get two percent of the profit.

I think that this new lieutenant section chief may also want to get more when he is holding 20% of the profits.

Glancing at Ensign Piping sitting in front of him, Zhang Tie smiled and put away the heavy bag of gold coins, the gold coins in this money bag, by feeling, Zhang Tie knew that there were at least 22, which was probably equivalent to his father's salary in the previous two years, and it was not a small amount of money for ordinary people to collect, "Second Lieutenant, I am very satisfied with the current situation, and I have no intention of changing anything, so you don't have to worry" Second Lieutenant Piping secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, I've been recuperating in the countryside this week, why is the atmosphere in Brape even more tense when I come back this time than last week, haven't those saboteurs of the Sun God Dynasty been caught yet" Zhang Tie, who took a sip of water, asked seemingly unintentionally.

"On Wednesday, two soldiers of the 21st Division disappeared in Brape, and because of this, the atmosphere in Brape was tense again for the past two days," Second Lieutenant Piping whispered, "because I didn't want to cause tension in Brape, so the news was not announced to the public" Zhang Tie was stunned for a moment, "Did those lurkers and saboteurs of the Sun God Dynasty do it?"

"It's very likely, but I don't know the specifics, it's the Red Gloves of the Empire who are in charge of capturing those people in Brape right now, those people have been in Brape for two weeks, but unfortunately there is still nothing to gain, it seems that those guys are also in vain" A somewhat sarcastic smile appeared on the face of Second Lieutenant Pepin.

"Red gloves" Zhang Tie, who heard this word for the first time, glanced at Second Lieutenant Piping with some confusion, "What red gloves?"

Second Lieutenant Piping remembered that he, the commander who had just come out of Black Flame City, might not know who the "red gloves" were in the Norman Empire, so he seriously explained to Zhang Tie, even with the slickness of Second Lieutenant Piping, he couldn't help but show some disgust when talking about those people, and there was probably no one in the entire Iron Horn Legion who liked those guys who wore red gloves.

"You mean, it's the secret police under the Imperial Order Review Committee who is now in charge of investigating and arresting those Norman saboteurs and lurkers in Brape" This news that he only knows now makes Zhang Tie's heart inexplicably shocked.

"Yes, those guys seem to have something to do with the contradictions between the big guys above, I heard that Marshal Lin Changjiang and the big guys of the Imperial Order Review Committee don't get along" Second Lieutenant Piping explained to Zhang Tie what he heard about the inside story of these red gloves coming to Brape because of the explosion this time, "Because of the disappearance of the soldiers of the two 21st Divisions, everyone suspects that those lurkers of the Sun God Dynasty did it, and no one knows what those people are going to do next, and the commanders above are very angry, So the atmosphere in Brape has been a little tense these days, and those red gloves have been transferred from outside a lot of people this week."

Could it be that in addition to the ones he killed, there were other groups of lurkers in Brape in the Sun God Dynasty Thinking of this answer, Zhang Tie breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, maybe that warehouse was really burned by those people, those guys were really not afraid of death, and they didn't run away immediately after the matter was completely revealed, maybe there were any secrets in the warehouse that they didn't want to be known, after all, he didn't do a thorough inspection of the warehouse at that time.

Zhang Tie found several "suitable reasons" for all this in his heart.

At this time, Zhang Tie didn't think that the "red gloves" in Lieutenant Piping's mouth would have anything to do with him, the "red gloves" were just the tools of struggle thrown by the big people to Brape, and their targets were those guys in the Sun God Dynasty, what would happen to small people like themselves Thinking so, although there were still some questions, Zhang Tie put this matter aside for the time being.

"Do you have any acquaintances in the equipment department of the legion?"

Zhang Tie asked Piping.

"There are no officers in the logistics department of the entire Iron Horn Regiment that I don't know," Second Lieutenant Piping said with some pride.

That's the advantage of a person like Ensign Pepin, who is well-informed and has a lot of friends wherever he is, and a man like Reinhardt can be powerful on the battlefield, but a person like Ensign Pepin can also be at ease in some places.

"Then, go drive, and take a trip with me to the Legion's armament office."

"Sir, you're here to be" "Isn't the winner of the Order of Iron and Blood able to receive a special piece of equipment as a reward at the equipment of the legion" Zhang Tie smiled, he almost became a waste some time ago, and he didn't pay much attention to the matter of rewarding special equipment with the Order of Iron and Blood, and he couldn't use it anyway, and now he has completely recovered, and if he doesn't take this kind of fair and honest benefit, then he is still himself, and it just so happens that he doesn't have a suitable weapon now, and it is a matter of course to go to the equipment department to pick a weapon.

As the equipment department of the entire legion, there should be more good things than the equipment depot of the 39th Division stationed in Black Flame City:
