Twenty Seven Years

  Chapter 303 Successfully complete the task

   "What to do? The question is what to do now? They are not sure whether Speaker Flynn has gone out..." The captain of the guard looked at Lawrence while scratching his hair.

Lawrence firmly believed that the information would not be wrong. Speaker Flynn must have rushed to No. 51 Heller Street: "Chairman Flynn must have gone out! Otherwise, he would not have sent a servant to attract our attention! From the perspective of Speaker Flynn, if he If you want to send someone to drive us away, it is definitely best to lure us in the opposite direction, so he may be heading west, and we should have time to chase him now!"

  The captain of the guard had some doubts: "What if he didn't go out? Or did he go in another direction?"

   "Then let's keep a team of people here to keep an eye on the mansion, in case Speaker Flynn doesn't go out. Then we will chase to the west. If we can't catch up, there is nothing we can do. At least we will try our best." Lawrence persuaded.

"...That's it!" The captain of the guard couldn't think of a better solution, and he said fiercely to the other guards, "Lawrence, Vader, and Tyron, come with me, and the others keep an eye on this place, and absolutely no one can be let out! If Because of the impact of your omissions, I will be the first to take your heads!"

   "Yes..." All the guards said tremblingly.

  Time was running out, and the captain of the guard didn't tell the guards any more, and quickly led Lawrence and others to chase westward.

  Lawrence panted heavily, and followed the captain of the guard who was eager to find someone to track down Speaker Flynn without stopping, thinking secretly about the next countermeasure.

  In such a large direction to the west, they haven't seen the figure of Speaker Flynn yet, so how can they be brought to 51 Heller Street without intention?

   "Do you feel something is wrong?" Just as Lawrence was thinking hard, the captain of the guard suddenly stopped and looked around.

   "What's the matter Captain?" a guard asked.

   "Isn't there a curfew at night, is there a night patrol by the troops of the independent mixed division? Why have you walked for so long and haven't seen a single one?" The captain of the guard felt that there was an indescribable sense of weirdness everywhere today.

   "That's right... that's weird..." The guard was also puzzled.

Lawrence was sweating profusely. He was half tired, and half was caused by a mistake in his planned trip and nervousness: "Captain, do you think this has something to do with the matter of Speaker Flynn? It just happened to be a coincidence that they bumped into each other." ..."

   "It's possible." The captain of the guard looked at the branch road ahead, "We have to hurry up and find Flynn..."

  Flynn's mansion is not too far from Heller Street. Generally speaking, it takes 20 minutes to walk there. After they ran for 10 minutes, they could reach Heller Street in two streets.

  '"Captain, there are too many forks in the road. It is much more efficient for us to search together than to separate, or should we search in separate blocks?" Lawrence proposed again.

   "That's the only way to go." The captain of the guard gave Lawrence a high look. The guard was quite flexible, "If I remember correctly, there are Monument Avenue, Heller Avenue, and Tenth Avenue."

  Lawrence didn't want to smear himself with too much doubt, trying to preemptively said: "I'll go to Monument Avenue."

"Then I will go to Heller Street, and you two will go to Tenth Street. If you find Chairman Flynn, don't disturb him. Follow him secretly and find a chance to contact any of us." The captain of the guard quickly completed the assignment, "Okay, Hurry up, let's go."

  The four soldiers divided into three groups and rushed towards Monument Avenue, Heller Avenue, and Tenth Avenue respectively.

  After Lawrence came to Monument Avenue, he knew that Flynn would not come here, so he didn't search at all, and quietly walked to the adjacent Heller Street.

  —

  9:58 p.m.

  Bruce Avenue

  Morais and several comrades in ambush held loaded pistols, hid in the darkness, and silently watched Captain Dana and Lieutenant Bunier sitting at the street corner, smoking and chatting.

   "At ten o'clock, get ready for me. Be sure to kill them all at once and evacuate as soon as possible." Morais carefully told several comrades in the war department.

"clear."

"clear."

  The comrades raised their pistols one after another, and pointed their guns at the two officers who were not far away from them.

  Nine fifty-nine.

  Morais' eyes flicked back and forth between Captain Dana, Lieutenant Bunier, and the watch.

   Thirty seconds left.

   Twenty seconds.

   Ten seconds.

  Five seconds.

   One second.

   "Hit!" Morais fired and roared, followed by dozens of "bang bang bang" gunshots.

Seeing with his own eyes that Captain Dana and Lieutenant Bunier were shot several times and fell to the ground, the night patrol soldiers of the Light Infantry Regiment on the street rushed to follow the gunshots and muzzle flash while rescuing them. Stay any longer: "Withdraw!"

  —

   Ten o'clock sharp

  Laizein, West End, 51 Heller Street

The night training troops in the area from Flynn's mansion to Heller Street were transferred away by Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey. In order not to be noticed, the two of them stayed in the **** shop at No. 51, patiently waiting Flynn met.

   "Why haven't you come yet?" Lieutenant Colonel Geoffrey couldn't sit still and looked at the time frequently.

  Colonel Benson sat firmly, with a serious face: "There are guards watching over him, it's not easy to figure it out, just wait a little longer."

Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey stood up and paced back and forth: "In order to create opportunities for him to come here, I transferred all the night patrol troops that he had to pass through. If Joseph found out about such a transfer, he would definitely be suspicious, so The longer it drags on, the greater the risk to me."

   "Didn't you say that if you can't reach an agreement, you will simply arrest him?" Benson looked up at Jeffrey who was walking around.

   "But what if the talk is good? Then there must be no clues left." Jeffrey said.

   "This area is all up to you. As long as you don't tell it, no one will know what happened here." After arriving at the meeting place, Benson, who was having a hard time making a decision at first, calmed down.

   "Even I wouldn't dare—" Jeffrey was speaking halfway, when he vaguely heard footsteps coming from outside, he immediately fell silent and looked outside.

  Seeing this, Benson vigilantly touched the gun on his waist with one hand.

   "Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey? Colonel Benson?" A tentative inquiry came from outside.

   Jeffrey, who looked outside first, smiled: "Mr. Flynn."

   "Mr. Flynn." Benson hurriedly stood up to greet him.

  —

  The captain of the guard who was in charge of tracking down Flynn's whereabouts was groping carefully in Heller Avenue, when suddenly a figure jumped out from one side and made him jump.

"team leader!"

  The captain of the guard was about to draw his gun when he heard a familiar call and took a closer look. It turned out to be Lawrence: "Lawrence? Why are you here? Aren't you in charge of patrolling Monument Avenue?"

   "I ran fast. I ran around and couldn't find it, so I wanted to come and look for it with you." Lawrence told the captain the reason he just made up.

   "He shouldn't be able to run very far, let's look for it together." The captain of the guard did not doubt Lawrence's words, and after calming down his frightened heart, he prepared to take Lawrence to continue searching.

  Lawrence glanced at his watch, it was already 10:03. According to the information disclosed by the superior, the operation on the other side has already started, and it will soon affect them.

   Sure enough, before they took two steps forward, a car sped up ahead and stopped in front of the No. 51 **** shop.

   "Lean against the wall!" The captain of the guard pulled Lawrence against the wall to avoid being discovered by the other party.

   "Captain, it seems to be someone from the independent mixed division!" Lawrence leaned against the wall, staring intently at the soldiers who got off the car.

  The soldiers were some distance away from them, and they seemed to be carrying some important information. They parked the car and entered the **** shop quickly before checking the surroundings.

   "What's going on..." The captain of the guard was completely stunned.

  First, Flynn sent his servants out to attract their attention, and then he escaped from his shell, and then the night patrol troops in the nearby neighborhood disappeared out of thin air, and soldiers driving suddenly appeared on Heller Street.

   This is so weird.

"Could this have something to do with Speaker Flynn?" Lawrence pretended to guess, "Chairman Flynn fled today, and the night patrol just disappeared? How could it be such a coincidence? Speaker Lin makes way..."

   "Don't talk nonsense." The captain of the guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, not daring to follow Lawrence's thoughts and speculate about the things in the independent mixing division. "Once such unfounded things get out, we will all die."

   "Yes..." Lawrence swallowed.

  —

   "It's an honor to meet you." In the **** shop, Benson, Jeffrey and Flynn shook hands, "Please sit down."

   "It's also an honor to meet you two." Flynn sat down under the warm invitation.

  Jeffrey was a little too anxious, and Benson was still pouring water, so he couldn't help but ask first: "I want to know your specific thoughts."

"My specific thoughts? I think, since we have all appeared here, we must have reached a consensus on this matter." Fulin raised his eyebrows, and prepared to inquire about the reality of the two of them leisurely. "I admire the foresight of the two of you, and you didn't follow Francois to make mistakes again and again."

"Today's meeting was also beyond our expectation. I have to say that you gave us a brand new choice. However, whether this choice is attractive and worth our risk, I think you still need to specify it." Benson said The poured glass of water was pushed towards Flynn.

  Flynn said thanks. He had expected that Benson and Jeffrey would contact him to obtain greater benefits, otherwise no one would take such a big risk to leave the side that is sure to win and support them. And he is well aware of the importance of the two corps in this power struggle, and he is ready to throw out enough benefits for this: "The two should also be very clear about continuing to stand on Francois' side until he restores the monarchy. What kind of development will you get in the future. Maren Joseph has firmly secured the position of the commander of the independent mixed division. If François really wants to promote you in the future, it is impossible that after Pissel was assassinated and killed Therefore, if the situation continues like this, the best result for the two of you is to maintain the status quo."

   Benson and Jeffrey had no objection to this point, and they came to meet Flynn because they recognized this idea.

"It is impossible for our parliament to do this, and we will not allow such absurd things as civilian major generals. So if the two of you can help us impeach François, force him to step down and re-stabilize Brecy's political situation, at least independent chaos You can leave the position of commander of the editor and the commander of the Laizein Guard Division to you." Flynn said.

   Benson and Jeffrey looked at each other.

  Staying by Francois' side is hard to accomplish, and the status of defecting to the parliament will be greatly improved, and they are moved.

  Flynn was keenly aware of the heat in the eyes of the two, and chuckled inwardly with disdain.

   Compared with the parliament regaining control of the political situation, the positions of the two major generals are nothing.

"Report!"

  At this time, the voice of a soldier came from outside the door.

  Benson glanced at Flynn, Flynn understood, and quickly stood up and hid aside.

   "Come in." After Flynn hid, Jeffrey called the soldiers to come in and speak.

"Regimental Commander, Colonel Benson." The soldier saluted the two and said, "The Equality Association assassinated Captain Dana and Lieutenant Bunier of the 1st Cavalry Regiment who were in charge of the night patrol on Bruce Street in the South District. Now Major General Joseph They're leading people over there."

   "The Equality Society has appeared again?!" Benson felt a headache for the Equality Society, which has been frequently assassinated recently.

   "Why did you come at this time..." Jeffrey was annoyed.

   They finally met with Speaker Flynn and talked about the benefits, and the Equality Council started another incident.

   "We have to go there too." Benson also felt uncomfortable, but he didn't doubt that the Equality Society's assassination tonight, but felt that it was a bit unfortunate.

   After all, the Equality Association has carried out multiple assassinations in a row in the past few days, and today's assassination is not a surprise.

   "Us too?" Jeffrey didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning behind it was very clear. He also wanted to have an in-depth conversation with Speaker Flynn.

"You go to the car and wait for us first." Benson sent the soldiers away, "There is an assassination over there, Joseph will probably check our defense work, it would be bad if he finds out that the night patrol troops around here are abnormally mobilized gone."

   "We have the opportunity to meet again, or we can communicate by letter instead." Speaker Flynn came out from behind the exhibit cabinet, and for the sake of safety, he did not choose to leave the two of them chatting all night long.

   "Fucking..." Jeffrey cursed, "Damn Equality Council!"

   "Then let's go first, and you can find a way to contact us later." Benson got up.

   Shouldn't you be the ones contacting me?

  Flynn was extremely puzzled, but he didn't speak out because of the emergency.

   "The nearby night patrol will be back in half an hour. You have to go back before then. Be careful on the road." After reminding Flynn, Benson and Jeffrey hurried out.

  —

   "Come out!" Lawrence raised his chin at the No. 51 **** shop.

   "Don't make a sound." The captain of the guard bumped Lawrence, and then he didn't dare to blink, staring at the door of the **** shop.

Under their secret watch, Colonel Benson, the commander of the 7th Light Infantry Regiment, and Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey, the commander of the 15th Light Infantry Regiment, came out of the **** shop, got into the car and sped in the direction they came from. go.

  Before their car disappeared from sight, another person came out of the **** shop, which shocked the captain of the guard.

   "It's really **** Fulin! I didn't expect them to collude!" The captain of the guard looked at the last person who came out of the **** shop, and he couldn't help cursing in a low voice.

  Different from the excitement of the captain of the guard, Lawrence no longer had surprise in his eyes. Instead, his body softened and he almost collapsed against the wall.

  The mission has finally been successfully completed!
