When they were three poles up, Apa turned the carriage around and headed towards the Garden Hotel. According to Apa, the Sheriff of Violet City, Utter, was a very capable man. After the city fell, he hid in the slums. Mixing with beggars and homeless people, he avoided the attention of the soldiers of the Shansha Empire. After the Shansha Empire withdrew its troops, he was the first to stand up and put order in the city. Under similar circumstances, the city will be temporarily in a power vacuum. This is the most chaotic time. Some people who have experienced the trauma of war do not mind transferring the pain to their compatriots. It was Erte who stood up in time. came out, preventing Violet City from suffering greater losses.
I often hear people say that Violet City is a beautiful city, but what An Fei saw is nothing close to the beauty. The streets are messy, and ruined houses can be seen from time to time. There are few pedestrians, and the faces of pedestrians are usually ugly. With any expression, if there is any, it is just numbness, and the whole city looks very desolate. Apa reluctantly told An Fei that there were more than 200,000 people in the entire Violet City. After the war, more than 3,000 people were killed and more than 11,000 people were missing. Most of the missing people were under the age of 15. It has been proven that more than 5,000 young women between the ages of 30 and 30 were kidnapped by the soldiers of the Shansha Empire. In other words, at least 5,000 families lost their daughters or wives.
An Fei asked Apa if it was possible for the missing person to come back. Apa shrugged his shoulders and told An Fei that that was impossible. Missing women cannot be treated like pampered children. If they fall into the hands of slave traders, they will have an easier time. In order to sell them at a good price, slave traders will ensure their basic life and will not abuse them excessively. It would be much more tragic if they became the playthings of the soldiers of the Sand Sand Empire. The offensive and defensive battle of Blacknia City lasted for a long time. If the Sand Sand Empire could not attack for a long time, they would feel anxious and would definitely vent their anger on the playthings. , if the land outside the Shansha Emperor's camp was turned over now, the remains of many missing people would be found.
Five thousand is just a documented number in Violet City. During the war, a total of 17 larger cities on the eastern front of the Mao Empire fell. So how many will there be in total? What if we add those towns? The huge number made An Fei feel frightened.
An Fei couldn't help but think of an old saying in his world, prosperity means people suffer; death means people suffer! The Mao Empire will definitely demand huge war reparations, but this money will only be used for post-war urban reconstruction, military pensions, recruitment and other national affairs. It will not give a single copper coin to the people. All the losses will only be used by the people. Bear it silently and digest it silently.
When he arrived at the Flower Garden Hotel, Apa jumped off the carriage first, carefully observed the surrounding situation, and gently knocked on the carriage to signal An Fei and others to get off.
An Fei lifted up the black cloth and pointed at the bamboo basket. The little guy raised his head and looked at An Fei's expression seriously. Seeing that An Fei's expression was serious, he stood up reluctantly and stepped into the bamboo basket. In order to prevent the little guy from getting into trouble, An Fei conducted more than a dozen trainings. As long as the little guy got into the bamboo basket, he could no longer move, otherwise he would be punished by An Fei. Although high-level monsters are said to be intelligent, the little ones are still in their infancy, so it is too early to talk about intelligence. It is better to forcibly cultivate conditioned reflexes.
Susanna picked up the bamboo basket, sighed softly, covered it with black cloth, and covered the little guy inside. Looking at the little guy's light blue eyes full of grievances, she really wanted to talk to An Fei and let the little guy go. come out. It's a pity that that's impossible. After being with An Fei for so long, she has more or less understood An Fei's character. Neither she nor the little guy can be willful. What An Fei hates most is acting willfully at critical moments. people.
The group of people walked into the Garden Hotel. The scene inside the hotel was as bleak as the outside. The hotel was not small, but at a glance, there were dozens of tables without a single customer, and they were all empty. The two waitresses were lying on the bar and taking a nap. When they heard the footsteps, they stood up and turned around in a hurry, but they were shocked. They were actually characters like Wu Yan. All the soldiers of the Shansha Empire had fled. , there is really no need to disgust the guests so much!
The two waitresses were also looking at the group of people blankly, and finally fixed their eyes on Susanna, forgetting even the necessary polite reception. This flower girl is so beautiful! They were surprised why the soldiers of the Shansha Empire would let such a beautiful girl go.
Apa walked over and whispered a few words to the two waitresses. One waitress took the lead and walked up to the second floor. She walked to the door of a private room, opened the door and stood sideways, her eyes still fixed on Susanna, Susanna blocked the bamboo basket with her hands uneasily. She was worried that people would discover her secret, but she didn't know that she had been regarded as a flower girl because of the bamboo basket.
Black Eleven closed the door with his backhand and shut 'Wu Yan' out. The first thing Suzanne did was to lift the black cloth. The little guy raised his head and looked at An Fei eagerly. It's time for An Fei to nod his head.
He jumped out happily. Although he was only imprisoned for a short time, it was already a torture for the thirsty high-level monster.
"Sir, don't you need to order something?" Wu Yan, who was locked out of the door, asked timidly.
"It'll be a while." Black Eleven replied impatiently: "Apa, he should be waiting for us, right? What's going on with that Sheriff?" Black Eleven knew his future well. He turned out to be Someone has taken over his position, but His Majesty Yolande still asked him to follow An Fei, indicating that he will be An Fei's deputy in the future, so many things must be considered for An Fei first. After all, An Fei is the master of this Violet City. It is very rude and dereliction of duty to make An Fei wait, so Black Eleven was a little angry.
"I don't know, maybe there are other urgent matters that have delayed him. He is a very busy man now." Apa said with a smile.
"That's unreasonable. I really don't understand priorities." Black Eleven cursed and sat down heavily on the chair.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door: "Is Mr. Apa inside?"
"Here we come." Appa smiled and said, "Mr. Utter? Come in."
The door opened, and a fat man about thirty years old came in, with a full face of apology: "Sir Apa, I'm really sorry. I just found the remains of some missing people, so I went to deal with them. I'm sorry. Feel sorry."
An Fei looked at the visitor lightly. In terms of appearance and temperament, this person seemed very ordinary, but you can't be so superficial when looking at people! In addition to the sounds coming from the throat, there are also things like emotional language, body language, etc. that can allow people to obtain information. As human society becomes increasingly complex, the sounds coming from the throat are no longer reliable, and are far less reliable than emotional language and action language. To be honest, as long as your observation skills are good enough, you can definitely discover some interesting things.
When he got off the car, he took stock of the surrounding scenery. There were few pedestrians, and there was no one within two hundred meters. Even if they had just walked into the hotel, the sheriff in front of them rushed over, and there was no way they would knock on the door so quickly. . In other words, the sheriff should have been waiting nearby, even in this hotel.
"It's useless to apologize to me." Appa smiled, and then looked at An Fei: "This is Violet City Sheriff Utter."
The little guy slowly walked up to Utter curiously and arrogantly, raised his head and looked at it a few times. Susanna stood up in a hurry and shouted: "Come back!"
A flash of white light flashed, and the little guy appeared next to Susanna's leg, rubbing it affectionately. The experience in these days made it understand one thing, never anger Susanna! If An Fei is angered, and Susanna intercedes for it, the matter is not serious. If An Fei is angered by Susanna, An Fei will definitely punish it, and no one intercedes, then it is over.
Utter's pupils suddenly shrank. The speed, expression, and shape all proved the little guy's identity. Utter couldn't believe his eyes. What kind of person would he be if he could have a unicorn as a pet? ? At least he'd never heard of it!
"Sir, wait a moment, I have something to explain." Utter bowed respectfully, then walked to the door and said loudly: "You go back first, there is no need to wait for me."
"Yes, sir." There was a response from outside the door.
Ut turned around and walked back, his eyes swept across several people, and naturally fell on An Fei: "Sir, do you have anything you want to tell me to do?"
"Sit down and talk later." An Fei waved his hand.
"No, no, I can just stand." Utter said with a smile.
"You can sit down if you want." Susanna smiled and pulled out a chair for Er. She changed from a mercenary to the master of the city. This transformation was indeed too big, at least for Susanna now. Realize what transformation means.
"Thank you so much." Erte expressed his gratitude flattered, then carefully checked An Fei's expression, and then slowly sat down.
"I won't talk nonsense. My name is An Fei. I came to you just to know about the situation in Violet City. After all, this will be my home from now on."
"My God...you are Lord Anfei!" Erte exclaimed involuntarily. Out of political needs, Julande deliberately made Anfei's image extremely bright. Anfei has become a person who dares to face Any unparalleled warrior who challenges and faces any strong person, annihilating a squadron of gryphons is ironclad evidence! It suddenly dawned on Utter that such a person could of course have a unicorn as a pet.
"Have you heard of me?" An Fei raised his eyebrows. He was not sure what Yolande had done, so he was a little surprised. Even if he knew that he was the master of Violet City, his expression did not need to be so exaggerated.
