Chapter 290: Is what you think is justice really justice?

Views:

Walking in front of Edward and Bancy, Jason threw the captive on the ground.

thump.

Amidst the dull landing sound, Edward immediately lowered his head and squatted down, carefully inspecting the prisoner in front of him.

Edward, who was born in the army, knew very well that any prisoner should not be careless, especially the "Ghost Squad"—Edward, who had already roughly understood the situation, was more than 70% sure that the person in front of him was a member of the "Ghost Squad". Not a full-time member, it should be one level higher than the trainee team members, and the kind that is about to enter the official team.

While Edward was checking, Bancy turned behind Jason.

"What's wrong?"

Jason turned to look at little Bancy.

"I, I just want to see if the clothes on your back have been burned."

Bancy scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

"I controlled the distance."

Jason replied, and then, pointing to the captives and the wreckage of the car, he said: "I suggest searching the veteran site, focusing on those who can contact Elwood or who can know Elwood's orders, his appearance is just right. "

"Um."

Edward nodded after checking the captives, but he didn't act immediately. Instead, he pointed to the other side of the road, motioning Jason to speak in a place where no one was around.

"Veteran sites are troublesome."

"There is a group of outstanding but rebellious guys gathered there, and my people can't get in at all."

"Also, the people there seem to have an inexplicable cult of 'Ghost Squad.'"

"They still think that the 'ghost team' is a hero, even if the 'ghost team' has betrayed the 'Silver Federation'."

In the corner, Edward said in a low voice.

"Have you investigated there?"

Jason continued to ask.

"Um."

"Just now I sent someone, and then..."

"My men were thrown out."

"They told me they wouldn't meddle in anything with 'Ghost Squad', but they didn't want anyone to bother them because of 'Ghost Squad'."

Edward smiled wryly.

"Do you trust them?"

Jason asked back.

"I would like to trust them."

"but… "

Edward didn't finish his words, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

How credible is it for a group of guys who worship 'Ghost Squad' to say that they don't want to interfere with 'Ghost Squad'

Basically equal to nothing.

"I have already reported to the 'Silver Federation' about the matter of the veteran site, but the reply is that I don't need to bother - can you imagine? For the first time, I hated the 'Silver Federation' for being so efficient!"

Edward continued to speak, and the wry smile on his face became more and more intense.

Edward is no fool.

The uncharacteristic efficiency of the 'Silver Federation' alone is enough to make him feel strange.

Not to mention, the affirmative answer has already revealed the ambiguous attitude of the 'Silver Federation'.

Although Edward didn't know what happened, he could be sure that it was definitely not a good thing.

Jason roughly guessed what the 'Silver Federation' wanted to do: Let the 'Ghost Squad' and the 'Dawn Pruss' family kill each other, so as to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

What puzzled him was that with the power shown by the 'Chenxi.Pruss' family, there was no need to do this at all.

Is there anything else the 'Chenxi.Pruss' family is hiding

Jason thought.

Immediately, Jason smiled.

A family that has been passed down for more than three hundred years has no hidden secrets, who would believe it

However, what kind of secret can make the 'Silver Federation' so afraid

Is "The Name Singing in the Starry Sky" really a lie

Involuntarily, Jason recalled that huge room and those gold, silver and jewels again in his mind.

certainly!

And that potion!

Are these all related too

Thinking about it, Jason turned and walked towards the female pastry chef not far away.

"Call the Pruss family and tell them what happened here."

Jason ordered.

Some things don't need to be done by yourself.

Jason believed that as long as the old Teddy of the Pruss family got the news, he would definitely take action.

Although he couldn't be sure what the 'Silver Federation' was afraid of, he could be sure that the 'Dawn Prussian Family' and the 'Ghost Squad' had long been at odds.

As long as it is confirmed that the 'Ghost Squad' is related to the Veterans Site, the 'Dawn Prussian Family' will definitely make a move.

"good."

The female pastry chef was a little puzzled, but that didn't stop her from calling.

By Jason's side, she was used to making phone calls.

Although it has been called to the police station before.

After seeing the female pastry chef dial the phone, Jason returned to Edward and Bansy again.

"Be on your guard."

Jason said so.

It wasn't that Jason didn't want to tell Edward and Bansy thoroughly.

It's that Jason doesn't trust anyone except Edward and Bansy.

Since the 'Ghost Squad' can buy off the veterans' site, why can't they buy off Edward's men

You know, Edward is also from the army, and his subordinates are naturally from there.

Perhaps money cannot move these honest people.

but…

What about other things that are not money but are more than money

For example: help them get rid of an unsightly, unconscionable black policeman, scumbag who persecutes the innocent, but they can't take action due to principle.

Jason can still remember the sheriff named Thorndike, showing off his power in front of him, and then being shot in the head.

There is no love without a reason in the world.

There is no gratuitous hatred.

Since the 'Ghost Squad' has already betrayed, but is still regarded as a hero by the people at the veteran site, it must be that the 'Ghost Squad' has done something in line with the 'heroic behavior'.

Except for those black policemen and scum who were killed, Jason couldn't think of anything else.

Those at the Veteran Site considered the 'Ghost Squad' a hero for such an act.

With the same background and great similarity, would Edward's subordinates do this

The answer is: probably!

Even if you are hurt yourself, such things will still happen.

Because pain will turn such recognition into a sense of mission.

'They sacrificed voluntarily. '

'For us! '

'To draw out those damned enemies! '

'They are the real heroes! '

Under the preconceived premise, words like this can definitely have a pretty good effect.

Even, it will make the listener prepare for the worst.

They will sacrifice for ideals.

because…

They think they are righteous.

Think about the repeated setbacks of Edward's previous actions.

Jason remained silent.

He couldn't tell Edward and Bansy about his guess.

Some things are destined to be unspeakable.

Edward and Bancy looked at Jason in surprise.

However, out of trust in Jason, both of them nodded cautiously.

Then Jason and the pastry chef re-boarded the stagecoach.

"Your Excellency, where are we going?"

asked the coachman.

"Do you know Veterans Site?"

Jason asked.

The purpose of his 'inspection' is for the 'Ghost Squad'.

And now, with the location where the 'Ghost Squad' might be hiding, Jason will naturally not give up.

"certainly."

"There lived a group of fighting heroes."

The coachman replied in this way, and then, the stagecoach bypassed the street and drove towards the road leading to the veterans' station.

Roll, roll.

After the wheels and the stones on the ground were crushed, the axle made a unique sound.

Jason closed his eyes and meditated.

He knew very well what would happen to him next.

It is necessary to recharge your batteries.

The female pastry chef also roughly guessed it, so the female pastry chef closed her mouth tightly and even took her breath lightly.

About thirty minutes later, the carriage stopped in an area near the outskirts of Xinde City.

The sign of the Veterans Hospital can be seen from a long distance.

The Veterans Station is on the other side of the Veterans Hospital.

Both are in the same area.

However, there is still a distance between them.

After all, veterans hospitals need quiet.

And the veteran site

It may not be their intention to be noisy and noisy, but it is inevitable to argue over some things and fight violently.

They're a stubborn bunch in their own right.

They all have a bullish temper.

Similarly, after being irritated, he is aggressive like a red-eyed bull.

The female pastry chef can see the lawn in the distance through the car window. Several caretakers are pushing wheelchairs into the sun. Some people with limited mobility are sitting on the wheelchairs.

Different from ordinary patients, these people still have their backs straight even if they have limited mobility. Even if some of them lose their legs, it is still not a reason to crush their spines.

Instead, they sat more upright.

The sound is also extremely loud.

The sun shone brighter on their faces.

They were all wounded on the battlefield, right

Was Jason here before

What would Jason be like at that time

Looking at this scene, the female pastry chef couldn't help thinking.

She wanted to know more about Jason's past.

Therefore, she made up her mind that she must come here to ask more about Jason when she has time in the future.

The carriage continued to move forward, passing through the veterans' hospital, and came to the vicinity of the veterans' station.

However, before approaching the veteran's site, the female pastry chef felt chills all over her body.

Not the severe cold of winter.

It's a cold feeling.

Moreover, compared to the Veteran's Hospital, which was only lively just now, the Veteran's site, which was supposed to be extremely noisy, was completely quiet.

There was no one on the lawn.

Not a single person was there.

There was not a single sound coming from the house at the site.

Such silence is suffocating.

Even, the bottom of my heart is hairy.

Especially after passing through the excitement of the Veterans Hospital, coming here is like entering another world.

The female pastry chef couldn't help becoming nervous.

She subconsciously looked at Jason.

Then, she realized that Jason was... laughing
