【423】Red Cloth and Judgment

When the three of Miller heard this, they suddenly realized that the reason why the Earl of Beihai distributed the dollar bills late at night was to promote this Chinese man named Li Enfu as the manager of some kind of fund!

Hmph, if it wasn't for such a handful, that 'Big Bird Assassin' might not have succeeded...

After figuring this out, Bresson and Jiu Ximi looked at Li Enfu with unfriendly eyes.

"You must know where the Earl of Beihai is hiding, right?"

Jiu Ximi grabbed Li Enfu in a vicious manner and asked questions.

"He was kidnapped by members of the Black Clothes Gang, huh, you all knew about it just now!"

Li Enfu was in a mess and looked at Kushimi wearily.

"The Black Clothes Gang, I've never heard of it! You must have deliberately made up a lie when you saw that my army was encircling you and you couldn't escape! Tell me, tell me the whereabouts of the Earl, you can live! Don't tell me, believe it or not, I will kill you?"

"It's useless for you to kill me, hey, he was really taken away!" [

"Hey, are you still talking hard? Come on, shoot him, and kill him to make an example!"

The hope of meritorious service and promotion was shattered, Jiu Simi and Bresson lost their manners, and ordered someone to kill Li Enfu as soon as they waved.

"Wait!"

Major General Miller spoke at the right time, stopped the guards, rubbed his head and thought: "The name Li Enfu sounds familiar, don't kill people randomly, maybe he is a famous person! Wade, is Wade there? Come here." !"

De Jong Wade was taking a 'fixed makeup photo' of the townspeople and captives in the small square. Hearing the call, he didn't dare to neglect, and hurried over.

"Li Enfu? You know, he graduated from Yale, published "The Story of My Childhood in China", he was quite famous in Boston, and later married a lady from New England..." Wade showed his rich professional knowledge, briefly I pondered for a moment.Just tell the most proud life of Li Enfu.

"and many more!"

Miller interrupted, saying: "He married a white man? Oh, then don't neglect, guard, untie Mr. Li!"

When the guard untied Li Enfu's rope, Bresson and Kushimi felt a little annoyed.He leaned over and whispered to Miller, "Why did you let him go? General, this Li Enfu must have a very close relationship with the Earl of Beihai. Once we torture him, he might recruit..."

"Punishment doesn't apply to him. I learned just now that there is indeed an underground gang in California called the Black Gang. Their background seems to be Russia, and they have entangled with the Earl of Beihai."

While Miller said this.Glancing at Wade, it was obvious that this news was also learned from the editor-in-chief.

"Without torture, how did you dig out the Earl of Beihai? Could it be that you really believed that the Black Clothes Gang was full of food and took him away?"

The two regiment leaders stared bull-eyed.

"It may not be because you are full. I told you two before that this earl is the most arrogant and exaggerated. It is not impossible to form a grudge with this black gang."

"Then what to do?" [

"Easy to handle, do you still want to get rich?"

Miller suddenly became mysterious, and asked in a low voice: "This town of Clinton seems to be richer than the previous three. Are you... not moved?"

"Uh, heartbeat, of course heartbeat!"

The eyes of the two regiment leaders lit up.It was a golden color: "But General, didn't you say that there is a group of reporters following us, should we restrain ourselves?"

"The situation has changed, of course we have to adapt!"

Miller smiled treacherously, and raised his hand a little: "Although the Earl of Beihai was not caught. But he left a huge handle, a reason enough for us to have a good time!"

"You mean..."

"That's right, it's the big red cloth!"

Miller revealed his final intention: "There are signatures and affidavits of the residents of this town on it, all of which are ironclad proofs that they support the Earl of Beihai! We will not torture this Li Enfu, but we can move those civilians!"

"what……"

The two regiment leaders were stunned and smiled knowingly: "Under the torture, we will be able to identify who is guilty and who is guilty. The guilty ransacked the house, and the guilty ones have to use US dollars to prove their innocence..."

As the saying goes, being an official for thousands of miles is only for making money, and being a soldier is actually the same. Kushimi and Bresson want to improve their ranks, but the ultimate goal is not all to make money?

Now that there is a ready opportunity to make a fortune, how can the two regiment leaders let it go?

With a crash, the giant red cloth was unfolded, and the densely packed brush characters and palm prints on it were revealed in everyone's eyes.

"Whoever reads the name, shout it. If you don't shout it, you will be found out later and you will be severely punished!" Jiu Simi stood beside the red cloth triumphantly, assuming the duty of a judge.

"Why? You have the right to punish people? They are all citizens of our country!" A member of the press corps mustered up the courage to stand up and questioned Miller.

"Yes, there will be a trial, and there will be judges. It's not up to you soldiers to run amok!" The hot female reporter also questioned.

"This is a time of war, and the White House has issued a military control order. We, as judges, will not spare any criminals!"

Major General Miller didn't panic at all, and replied unhurriedly: "The townspeople of Clinxington are suspected of shielding the Earl of Beihai, and also participated in an illegal assembly, and signed a petition against the federal law. This is serious. It's treason! No mercy!"

"Treason?" Wade frowned lightly, "Isn't it a bit serious?"

"No, it's not heavy at all!"

Miller snorted: "Their signatures and pledges mean that they are in conflict with the laws promulgated by the Federation, and in fact constitute a blasphemy against the laws of the Federation! On behalf of the military department, of course I have the right to judge them, see Does it hide the accomplices of the Earl of Beihai!"

Hearing this, Wade already understood that Major General Miller was determined not to let these townspeople go, he sighed, took a step back and said, "Major General, I believe your trial is fair. Do you want to take a picture?"

Miller replied: "You can take pictures, but the photos need to be reviewed by me..."

Miller and Wade were negotiating news standards, while Bresson and Kushimi did not stop. The soldiers called each other according to the names on the big red cloth... The "big trial" in the town of Clingington, It has already started.

"Qianshanyuan, come out by yourself!"

"Peter. Which one?"

……

"Johnny, stand up!"

As soon as the names were called, there were ten of them. Following the shouts of the federal soldiers, the ten townspeople stood up hesitantly and tremblingly, and walked to the central open space surrounded by the soldiers.

After the merger of the Five Route Army under Miller's command.There were nearly 3000 people, except for those who were still patrolling and searching outside, the remaining soldiers packed the small square to the brim. They didn't need to speak or shoot. Just standing there was extremely oppressive!

Poor those ten townspeople, they are ordinary people, facing this momentum.Almost freaked out, two of them wobbled for a while before collapsing to the ground.

"This is your signature? This, Qian Shanyuan, was written by you, right?"

Holding a whip in his hand, Bresson pointed to the big red cloth and asked sternly.

"Yep……"

"You are guilty, do you admit it?"

"Recognize. Recognize what?"

"Don't admit it? You still don't deny the evidence. It seems that you are a hidden accomplice of the earl! I declare that you are sentenced to death and deprived of property rights for life. Immediate execution!"

"Um, what? Ah..."

There was a shot.With a scream, the lead mountain source fell to the ground, with blood overflowing from under his body, gradually changing towards the last form of life—a dead body.

There was more than one scream.The press corps also burst into air-conditioning and exclaimed, and several reporters blurted out: "How can you kill people "randomly"?"

The fiery female reporter grabbed Wade's arm and said, "Editor Wade, we must stop all of this. This is a massacre, an atrocity against humanity!"

"calm!"

Wade put his arms around the small waist with one hand, raised the heavy camera with the other, and clicked: "We are faithful recorders of the facts, and the situation is complicated now. We must first protect ourselves before we can reveal the truth here. Send it out! Everyone, please calm down and work first!"

Wade's prestige is very high, and the rest of the war reporters nodded solemnly when they heard this, and stopped shouting, but set up their cameras and frantically took pictures of the 'trial center'.

At this time, the interrogation has come to the second person.

"Are you Peter?"

"Ah, yes, yes..."

"This is your signature and handprint, isn't it?"

"Hey, yes, but I'm not the earl's party, I'm just greedy for money, I'm damned, I'm wrong, don't kill me, I'll give you back all the money..."

The white Peterf wept bitterly, and tremblingly handed the dollar he had just received to Bresson from his pocket.

"Pay back what? I didn't send it to you!"

Bresson gestured with his eyes, and the soldier next to him intercepted the dollar: "I'll ask you again, you signed it, you are guilty, do you admit it?"

"I admit it, I, I admit it!"

The lessons learned from the past are right under our noses, and Peterfu is still nodding his head, for fear that if he is a step too late, he will follow in the footsteps of Qianshanyuan.

"Well, pleading guilty is right! There are red and black letters on the paper. If you don't plead guilty, I will send you to God to repent! Collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country is a capital offense. If it is placed on the front line of the border, I will not talk nonsense with you. The point is over." The one with the name will be shot down, I guarantee it will be correct!"

Bresson snorted, pulled Peterf over, and shouted, "Go to the back and sign your plea. Congratulations. You answered quickly. My life is saved."

With two role models, one good and one bad, one dead and one alive, the townspeople in the future will know how to choose!

Soon, seven of the eight people in the back chose to plead guilty, bowed their heads, walked to the crowd of soldiers behind and pressed their fingerprints again: But this time, they didn't have any money to receive, and instead they had a dollar reward from Long Hao , They were all scoured by those hungry soldiers laughing and laughing.

After witnessing all this, Li Enfu said angrily to Major General Miller, "This is not a trial, but blackmail by death! What did they sign? Is it a contract of prostitution?"

Miller replied lightly: "It's not a bond of sale, but a pleading guilty... In fact, it's almost the same, just donate [-]% of the property to make atonement! Soon, this town will belong to us, and, yes They voluntarily signed their fingerprints to agree."

"General, you are clearly robbing!"

"Come on, I left them [-]% of the property, which is considered kind! Like the first person, Qian Shanyuan, he has been judged to be an associate of the earl, and his family will be implicated. His property All will be exiled to the army! Hehe, it's very miserable."

"You, you are too evil, these townspeople are innocent!"

"Gu? After they take your bonus, they will no longer be guilty. People die for money and birds die for food. Have you ever heard this sentence? They are just a bunch of stupid people who lost their heads because of greed! Blame it! , I can only blame the Earl of Beihai and you, in the middle of the night. What a big autograph, and you didn’t put away the signed red cloth afterward..."

Miller smiled sullenly: "So, you gave me the reason, they all died because of you!!"

"Strong, strong words are unreasonable!"

Li Enfuli defended vigorously, and then fell silent, because he knew that what Miller said was very reasonable: the miserable fate of these people was almost caused by him and Long Hao working together!

For a moment, Li Enfu felt his chest constrict.The pain was so bad that I lost the strength to speak...

Li Enfu almost collapsed, but the "Earl's Party Screening Activity" in the small square was not over, but in full swing.

The first ten people are the 'chickens' who want to scare chickens to scare monkeys. Next, for the sake of efficiency, there are four federal soldiers standing on the four sides of the big red cloth, bowing their heads and calling their names. come up.

They can't hide even if they want to.Because there are neighbors who have identified her next door, who wants to get away with it.Immediately someone was identified, the identified person was rewarded, and the identified person was rewarded.

In this scene, Wade told the hot female reporter in a low voice: Have you heard the story of the crab?Similar to this!

The female reporter's eyes are heart-shaped: I have never heard of it, editor-in-chief Wade, you are so knowledgeable!

Wade is proud: I also heard from Chinese fishermen.On the beaches of San Francisco, the crabs caught are put in a basket, and the fishermen there are so frugal that the basket does not deserve a lid.

The female reporter was surprised: If the lid was not covered, wouldn't the crabs crawl out and run away?

Wade: No way.Because no matter which crab wants to climb out first, it will be torn off by the crabs behind.

That's right, the scene in front of you is the same as the 'fisherman's crab basket', thousands of crabs, ah no, they are the townspeople, supervise each other, and report each other, as long as they just signed on the big red cloth and collected the money, then Absolutely can't escape!

Seeing the long queue of townspeople lined up to accept the 'trial', Bresson and Kushimi smiled at each other, knowing that Klinxington had already entered the hub, and they were about to make a fortune, so they bowed their heads. Look at the last of the ten 'chickens': Johnny.

"You, look up!"

"I, I plead guilty, woohoo, I plead guilty, I'll go to the back and sign, don't kill me!"

Johnny was worried, why did he stop when he tried the first nine?So when he heard the questions from the two officers, he hurriedly answered them.

"Are you black?"

"Yes, but I'm an American citizen, and our family was born in California!"

"Hmph, other people may sign for money, but you, I dare say, you must also feel racially discriminated against, right?"

"No, no, I feel very, very... happy living in America!"

"Happy you 'hair' ball, nigger! You can't even tell a lie, look at your name, why did you sign it three times?"

Kushimi kicked Johnny, knocking some of his shiny white teeth away.

The unlucky black man rolled a few times, and rolled under the big red cloth. There were already three federal soldiers beside him, their faces were as cold as ice, and each of them pointed to a mark: three signatures and two palm prints!

"I, I... this, this..."

Johnny's mouth was leaking, and he was so simple-minded that he couldn't think of a suitable reason for a while. He couldn't say that he was greedy for money, so he queued three times in a row and received rewards three times, right?

"Stuttering, guilty conscience! Take him down, go to his home, and see if you can find any clues related to the whereabouts of the Earl of Beihai!"

Kushimi let out a cold snort, and immediately some soldiers set Johnny up, and then found Johnny's family members from the crowd, and threateningly killed Johnny's dwelling!

Before leaving, Jiu Ximi said to Bresson: "The major general's idea is good. To frighten these townspeople, killing just one person is not enough. Killing a few more of such niggers is the kingly way! "

Bresson smiled and said: "That's hard work for you, I'm here to watch, if the effect is good, we might as well launch a 'sweeping crime operation' on the town of Clinton, get rid of those annoying niggers, and save the world Make a contribution to the purification."

Kushimi said with a sinister smile: "I know, don't look at these niggers as strong as cows, but as long as I give you a little guidance, I believe their bones are softer than anyone else, and it's okay to bite people..."

A group of federal soldiers escorted Johnny's family and Brando's family to a certain street that had been swept away. Johnny's and Brento's houses were only three houses apart, so they knew each other well.

Johnny's family, big and small, men and women, more than a dozen blacks, sobbed like a stray dog ​​stuck in the neck, their faces were shining brightly, obviously tears of fear had covered their dark cheeks.

"Whose house should we go to first?"

Kushimi looked at Zai like a pig and dog, glanced over, and asked Johnny and Brento jokingly.

"his home!"

Johnny and Brento spoke at the same time, pointing fingers at each other.

"Whose family?"

"His family, he told me about the money distribution activities. He, Brando, is more likely to be the earl's accomplice!"

"Go to his house, he gets the most money, Johnny, I know, the girlfriend you talked about recently is Chinese! I'm just greedy for money, but you have long been interested in the Earl of Beihai, and want to betray our great federation !"

Both of them are quite reasonable, but Brando, who seems to be involved in Johnny's identification, has the upper hand.

"Go to your home!"

Kushimi smiled coldly and pointed to a house, which was Johnny's home.

The reason is simple, because this one is the closest to Kusimi Station.

Johnny's dwelling was not big, it only had one floor and five rooms. Soldiers like wolf and tiger rushed in and immediately turned Johnny's house into a mess and the sky was dark. (To be continued..)
