    For some reason, Zhang Tie, who was sitting on the carriage, had an unpleasant premonition in his heart after seeing the pile of warehouses that were burned to ruins. Even he couldn't explain why, but he suddenly felt like  It was like a stone pressing down on him, giving him a slightly uncomfortable feeling.

    Who burned down the warehouse and destroyed it?

    Are they the accomplices of those lurkers from the Sun God Dynasty?  It is possible that the fifteen people he killed that day may not be all of them. There may be other people lurking in the city in the Sun God Dynasty. Those lurkers should probably know that this warehouse is one of their secret strongholds.  .

    But why did they burn the place down?  Destroy evidence?  It's possible, but lighting a fire is too eye-catching. If there are lurkers who have not been killed by themselves, what will those people who find that their companions have been wiped out do?  If it were me, in that situation, I would definitely run away immediately and not stay in Brape at all, let alone set a fire.

    I wonder if those corpses were in the fire?  When something like this happens, someone should come to the fire scene to investigate. If there are more than ten corpses suddenly appear at a fire scene, no one will ignore them wherever they are placed.  In the Norman Empire, when encountering a fire scene where a body was found, a yellow cordon would be drawn around the ruins as a rule. This cordon would usually remain in place for a long period of time, but just now, Zhang Tie  I didn¡¯t see any warning lines around the fire scene. Does that mean that the bodies in the ruins are gone

    Today¡¯s weather is very good, but all these questions make Zhang Tie feel as if a layer of fog has suddenly enveloped him.

    Because this matter involves Zhang Tie and the biggest secret that Zhang Tie doesn¡¯t want to be known, Zhang Tie can¡¯t just take it lightly. Zhang Tie always feels that the place was burned to rubble.  It revealed a strange feeling that frightened him.

    Riding a carriage to the block where the Greens were, Zhang Tie got off the carriage and casually made a mark on a street lamp on the street before returning to the place he rented from the Greens.

    As usual, at this time in the morning, Mr. and Mrs. Green were carefully taking care of the vegetables they had planted in the vegetable garden in front of their downstairs window. Perhaps it was because Zhang Tie had given them too much shock that night a week ago.  , when he saw Zhang Tie this time, although Mr. Green still took off his hat and said hello to him.  But he saw a trace of fear and hesitation on the faces of the elderly couple.

    For two old people who have lived peacefully in a place like Brape for decades, Zhang Tie's cold-blooded decision to let a soldier chop off a man's head that night and his subsequent actions, even though Zhang Tie felt that he  He was already 100% benevolent, but in their eyes, this kind of Norman Empire officer who could kill people at every turn still made them feel scared.

    Zhang Tie went upstairs.  As soon as I arrived at the stairs on the first floor, I saw the woman of the couple living on the second floor carrying a vegetable basket and seemed to be going to buy groceries. The woman also saw Zhang Tie, and then the woman's face turned pale. She was leaving.  In the middle of the stairs, she leaned stiffly on the edge of the stairs, forcing a smile on her face, waiting to let Zhang Tie pass first.

    Zhang Tie sighed helplessly, and then said nothing more.  He stomped up the stairs to his room on the fourth floor.

    A few minutes later, Zhang Tie, who had changed into an officer's uniform, left the Green couple's residence, stopped a carriage on the road, and went straight to the base where the Ninth Equipment Section of the Integrated Logistics Support Office was located.

    To Zhang Tie¡¯s arrival.  Second Lieutenant Piping still showed the same welcome and enthusiasm as before, but he obviously misunderstood the meaning of Zhang Tie's arrival. Shortly after Zhang Tie's arrival, he was in the office.  Second Lieutenant Pepin obediently took a ledger and a money bag.  The Ninth Equipment Section's gray income was paid once every two weeks. Second Lieutenant Piping thought Zhang Tie was here to get money.

    The patterns on the front and back of the ordinary standard gold coins of the Norman Empire are iron thorns and crossed spears of the god of war. These two patterns, one is the national flower of the Norman Empire, and the other is the symbol of the national religion of the Norman Empire. They are well-made.  , holding the gold coins that felt very tactile in his hands and rubbing them, Zhang Tie sighed in his heart. This kind of life was once what he dreamed of. He would get a lot of gold coins into his account every day without doing anything.  To be as rich as a country, he only needs to be richest. With these gold coins, he can buy properties or find a lot of beautiful women, and then live like a pig every day, surrounded by women and gold coins.  The days of wallowing in the heap seemed to be within reach now, but Zhang Tie knew that if he didn't work hard to run forward, maybe within two days, he and everything he owned would be reduced to nothing. èa·Û.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­?Things that brought him great trouble were before him.

    Seeing Zhang Tie holding the gold coins and sighing, Second Lieutenant Piping, who had been observing Zhang Tie's face, thought that Zhang Tie was a little dissatisfied and thought that the gold coins were not distributed enough.

    "Although these gold coins are not many, this has been a tradition formed by the Ninth Equipment Department over the years. If you want to break this tradition, you may offend many people. There were people in your position who wanted to get more.  But in the end, those people didn't stay in this position for long!" Second Lieutenant Piping said carefully. After all, wealth is very attractive, and he who can get 10% of the profit is always thinking about when he can get 20%.  Second Lieutenant Piping compared profits and felt that when the new lieutenant section chief took 20% of the profits, he might also want to get more.

    Glancing at Second Lieutenant Piping sitting in front of him, Zhang Tie smiled and put away the heavy bag of gold coins. Based on his feeling, Zhang Tie knew that there were at least 22 gold coins in the bag, which was roughly equivalent to  Dad's salary for the past two years is not a small amount of money for ordinary people. "Second Lieutenant, I am very satisfied with the current situation and have no plans to change anything, so you don't have to worry!"

    Second Lieutenant Piping breathed a sigh of relief.

    "By the way, I've been recuperating in the countryside this week. Why is the atmosphere in Brape this time even more tense than last week? Haven't those saboteurs from the Sun God Dynasty been caught yet?" Zhang took a sip of water.  Tie asked seemingly unintentionally.

    "On Wednesday, two soldiers from the 21st Division disappeared in Brape. Because of this, the atmosphere in Brape has become tense again in the past two days!" Second Lieutenant Piping said in a low voice, "Because I don't want to cause any problems.  The atmosphere in Brape was tense, so the news was not announced to the public!¡±

    Zhang Tie was stunned for a moment, "Did those lurkers and saboteurs from the Sun God Dynasty do it?"

    "It's very possible, but I'm not too clear about the specific situation. The people in charge of arresting those people in Brape are the red gloves of the empire. It's been two weeks since those people came to Brape, but unfortunately they still haven't gained anything. Look.  It seems that those guys have a false reputation" A somewhat sarcastic smile appeared on Second Lieutenant Piping's face.

    "Red gloves?" Zhang Tie, who heard this word for the first time, glanced at Second Lieutenant Piping with some confusion.  "What red gloves?"

    Lieutenant Piping then remembered that he, a commander who had just come out of Black Flame City, might not know who the "Red Gloves" were in the Norman Empire, so he explained it to Zhang Tie seriously.  Second Lieutenant Ping was so naughty that he couldn't help showing some disgust when talking about those people, the entire Iron Horn Legion.  Probably no one likes guys wearing red gloves.

    "You mean, the secret police under the Imperial Order Review Committee are now responsible for investigating and arresting the saboteurs and lurkers of the Norman Empire in Brape?" Zhang Tie was inexplicably shocked by the news he just learned now.

    "Yes, those guys' coming to Brape seems to have something to do with the conflicts between the big shots above. I heard that Marshal Lin Changjiang and the big shots of the Imperial Order Review Committee can't get along" Second Lieutenant Piping explained to Zhang Tie again.  I heard the inside story about how these red gloves came to Brape because of the bombing. "Because of the disappearance of the two soldiers of the 21st Division, everyone suspected that it was the lurkers of the Sun God Dynasty who did it.  No one knows what those people are going to do next. The superiors above are very angry, so the atmosphere in Brape has been a bit tense these days. The Red Gloves have transferred a lot of people from outside in the past week"

    ????????? Could it be that in addition to the ones he killed, did the Sun God Dynasty have another group of lurkers in Brape?  I thought of this answer.  Zhang Tie breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Maybe those people really burned that warehouse. Those guys were really not afraid of death and did not run away immediately after the incident was completely exposed.  There might be some secrets in the warehouse that they don't want others to know. After all, they didn't do a thorough inspection of the warehouse at that time.

    Zhang Tie found several "appropriate reasons" for what happened.

    Zhang Tie at this time.  He didn't think that the "red gloves" that Lieutenant Pepin mentioned would have anything to do with him. The "red gloves" were just tools thrown by the big shots to Brape. Their targets were the guys from the Sun God Dynasty and themselves.  What intersection will happen to such little people?

    With this thought, although there were still some questions, Zhang Tie put the matter aside for the time being.

    "Do you have any acquaintances in the legion's equipment department?" Zhang Tie asked Piping.

    ¡°There is no officer in the entire Iron Horn Legion Logistics Department that I don¡¯t know!¡± Second Lieutenant Piping said with some pride.

    This is the advantage of people like Lieutenant Pepin. No matter where they are, they are well-informed and can know a lot of people.Friends, people like Reinhard will be majestic on the battlefield, but people like Second Lieutenant Pepin can also do well in certain places.

    ¡°Then, go and drive and come with me to the legion¡¯s equipment department?¡±

    "Sir, are you trying to"

    "Can't the recipients of the Iron-Blooded Medal receive a special piece of equipment as a reward from the legion's equipment department?" Zhang Tie smiled. He had almost become a useless person some time ago, and he didn't care much about the fact that the Iron-Blooded Medal rewards special equipment.  In my heart, I won¡¯t be able to use it anyway. Now that I have fully recovered, if I don¡¯t take such an aboveboard benefit, is that still me?  It just so happens that I don't have a suitable weapon right now, so it's natural to go to the equipment department to pick one.

    As the equipment store for the entire legion, there should be more good things than the equipment warehouse of the Thirty-ninth Division stationed in Black Flame City
