I'm Not a Theatre God

Chapter 138 Angry Xi Renjie

"What are you going to do?" Zhao Yi looked up and asked.

"Of course, I have to fulfill my duties as a law enforcement officer."

"Duties?"

"The law enforcement officers headed by Tan Ming and Zuo Tong have taken human lives lightly, massacred people, and plundered public property for their own use. As a law enforcement officer, I have the authority to purge the law enforcement system in the three districts." Chen Ling answered slowly, "Of course, after that, I will also temporarily seize the train... We can't let public property fall into the hands of criminals."

Zhao Yi was stunned for a long time before he heard from Chen Ling's words, "Are you going to kill people and take the train?"

Chen Ling glanced at Zhao Yi and didn't answer.

Zhao Yi seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Chen Ling... Can I ask you for a favor?"

"What is it?"

"There is a law enforcer... I want to kill him myself." Zhao Yi's mind flashed the face that stabbed his father thirteen times in the crowd. It was a face he would never forget until his death. His eyes flashed with murderous intent, "I want to avenge my father!"

Chen Ling glanced at him, "Intentional murder of a law enforcer is a felony, do you dare?"

"Fuck the felony!" Zhao Yi cursed in a low voice,

"If you give me I can't even avenge my father, so what's the point of me entering Aurora City alive? Anyway, I've been going against my father for a long time. The worst that can happen is that I'll get beaten up by him after I go down!"

Seeing the burning anger in Zhao Yi's eyes, Chen Ling's face flashed with approval, and he nodded slightly,

"It's true that intentional murder of law enforcement officers is a felony..."

"But as long as there are no survivors... who can prove that you killed someone?"

Hearing the second half of the sentence, Zhao Yi was stunned. He looked at Chen Ling in astonishment. The pair of eyes that narrowed into a smile were like a poisonous and cruel snake.

The raging fire burned beside the two of them. Chen Ling turned his head calmly and looked at the gradually disappearing train.

"If you want to avenge your father, I won't stop you... The premise is that you have to be able to catch up with that train."

After the voice fell, Chen Ling's figure turned into a residual shadow and rushed out along the railroad tracks!

Chen Ling has the [Blood Robe] and [Killing Dance] to help her catch up with the steam train that just left the station. However, this may not be the case for Zhao Yi. His face changed. He finally looked down at Uncle Zhao's body and muttered to himself:

"Dad... I will definitely avenge you. I will live well... Don't worry about me."

Zhao Yi wanted to take the body with him, but he was doomed to miss the train. Moreover, his father was most afraid of seeing him fighting with others. If he saw him avenging himself, he would probably be in a panic.

The fire spread on the ground, gradually engulfing the bloody body. Zhao Yi did not stop and ran towards the train with all his strength!

...

The biting cold wind whistled beside the train, and a figure in black rushed into the carriage.

"Commander Xi! You are finally here!" Seeing this, Zuo Tong's face showed joy, "Now we are all together..."

Before Zuo Tong finished speaking, the black shadow rushed in front of him, and one hand pinched his neck tightly, lifted his whole body with great force, and slammed it heavily on the inner wall of the carriage, making a dull sound!

"Who is it?!" Xi Renjie's eyes were full of rage. He pinched Zuo Tong and his eyes swept across the entire carriage.

"Who told you to shoot civilians?!"

This roar directly frightened everyone in the carriage. More than 20 law enforcers crowded together, not daring to look at Xi Renjie's eyes, and bowed their heads in silence.

Clang-clang-

The carriage was dead silent with only the whistling wind.

"You are law enforcers! Your duty is to protect the people! How dare you shoot at civilians?!" Xi Renjie's hand pinched Zuo Tong's neck purple, and the latter could no longer breathe, his eyes full of fear.

"... Commander Xi, we don't want to do that either!" Brother Jing couldn't help but speak, "But they are like crazy, rushing forward without caring about their lives. If we let them all squeeze into the car, how can we go to Aurora City?"

"You want to go to Aurora City! They also want to go to Aurora City! They just want to survive! Tell me... what did they do wrong?!"

Xi Renjie let go of Zuo Tong with one hand, and instantly pulled out the gun from his waist with the other hand, pointed the gun at Brother Jing, and roared in a low voice.

Brother Jing was speechless.

The law enforcer on the side hurriedly spoke, "In fact, the destruction of the third district is inevitable, and those people will die sooner or later... We can't deprive us of the opportunity to survive just because they want to live..."

"Yes, we are also acting in self-defense. We warned them, but they didn't listen..."

"You..."

Xi Renjie's eyes were wide open, and he stared at these people, wishing he could shoot them all to death on the spot.

"Brother Jie, calm down..." Tan Ming, sweating profusely, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "The order from Aurora City is to send them into the city... If you kill them here, how will Aurora City explain it?"

Hearing this, Xi Renjie's pupils shrank slightly. He struggled for a long time in his eyes, but slowly put down the gun.

He took a deep breath and said:

"I'll settle accounts with you after we enter Aurora City."

Seeing this scene, the other law enforcers in the carriage finally breathed a sigh of relief... At some point, their backs were soaked with cold sweat.

As the speed of the train gradually increased, the crowd that could barely follow the track was completely abandoned behind. The steel beast galloped in the hum of steam, and only the endless black track was left in front of it, disappearing in the mist.

For this carriage, thirty people were not considered crowded. The law enforcers sat down one after another, and the seats were wide and narrow. They looked at the land passing by the window, and their expressions could not hide their excitement.

This excitement came from the relief of escaping death and the anticipation of entering Aurora City. After a while, the depressing atmosphere of the previous episode had passed, and they began to whisper to each other.

"I heard that people in Aurora City live in big houses, five or six stories high. Is that true?"

"Of course it's true. There are more than three million people in Aurora City, and the buildings are much taller than our three districts. It is said that there are buildings more than ten stories high, which are particularly spectacular."

"More than ten stories high? People have to climb so many stairs every day. Won't they be tired?"

"Why tired? People have elevators."

"Elevator? What is that?"

"It's a box that can automatically carry people up and down the stairs. Once the door opens and closes, it has already reached more than ten floors."

"So magical?"

"What is this? I heard that there are electric lights in Aurora City. At night, the streets are bright, much brighter than kerosene lamps, one by one, like stars."

"Because there are not many factories, it is said that the air in Aurora City is sweet..."

"..."

Everyone talked one after another, with eyes full of longing.

Xi Renjie sat alone in the last row of chairs. It would be a lie to say that he didn't have a hint of anticipation in his heart when listening to these things. However, he looked out the window at the streets shrouded in flames, and his mood was indescribably complicated...
