Steel Steam and Flame

Unknowingly, he came here again. Waters' gaze didn't need to be self-controlling, and was completely placed on the silhouette of the ruins in front of him. In the last two years after returning from the empire to a small country, he did not have a fixed residence and range of activities in order to avoid constant searches by various power families. I went around in many small countries and went to live in too many cities, but only stayed for two or three months, and then went to the next place.

I went to see Delya not long ago, and Hesley also rushed over afterwards. The three of them talked a lot, and they couldn't do without the boredom brought about by leisure. But there was not much time to get together comfortably, just one night, after which Waters and Hesley left separately.

For some reason, Waters returned to the first living city where he returned to the small country from the empire. It was like a loop, he thought. However, he also thinks this is a good new starting point. After meeting Delya, he has determined to go back to the dark world and continue the arms trade with a new identity... No, it should be said that it is a small-batch arms sales now. And Hesley, the protection network that had not yet been incorporated into the arms business network, its development has not been affected. The money accumulated in the arms business in the past can be used for a long, long period of time.

Waters knew that he would not be a person who could relax, and a little rush was the environment in which he could survive. And some things have been left there, and will slowly degenerate. He was also afraid that one day after the head of the regiment came back, he would no longer be able to manage the manufacture and sale of arms because he had not been in contact for a long time.

At this moment, he took a long breath of relief, shaking his head and preparing to turn and leave. It can be seen that there is no one around, only the sound of a horn will be heard in the distance from time to time, and the posture of turning is frozen.

"Forget it, let's go check it out. Although he and Hessley have both visited it a month ago." He knew that he wanted to go and check it out in his heart, if it wasn't for the pressure of being caught. , He can even live in the ruins. But finding excuses for yourself can always fill people with invisible courage, "It's not far away, it's just a reasonable walk after breakfast."

As he got closer to the ruins, Waters' body automatically and naturally entered a state of alert, and his steps relaxed. He didn't want anyone to know what the ruins meant to him, nor did he want others to know what was in the ruins.

Not a long distance, but Waters spent more than half an hour.

In the ruins of a building, the air carries the cold of winter and the loneliness that no one has visited for a long time. Looking at the huge concrete block in front of him, Waters watched the surroundings vigilantly, and then he lifted a corner more laboriously and took out the stainless steel box pressed underneath.

Putting down the concrete block carefully, he took the box and sat down against the ruined wall. Looking at the sky from the gap, the snow clouds spread across the entire sky, pale gray and black, and it won't be long before there will be a heavy snowfall.

He stared at the stainless steel box, moved his fingers, and then stopped. Because he has been going around all the year round, he has come here the most times compared to Hesley and Delya. The lid has been opened many times, but this action has not entered the memory, making him feel difficult every time.

Hope often brings despair, and Waters doesn't know why he suddenly thought of this sentence. But I know the meaning clearly, and it is also very clear that after the lid is opened, there is nothing but unchanging air in the box. But every time he comes here, leaning against a corner, his heart is full of expectation and hope. The despair deposited in the heart in the past will be cleared away, but after that, it will be filled with despair and loss again.

But it doesn't matter anymore, Waters thought, as a surgeon who hasn't completely separated from human attributes, it seems normal to him to retain some human emotional characteristics.

After taking a deep breath and exhaling, Waters felt like he was doing a sacred thing, and then opened the lid.

A letter that I didn't know if it was put in a few hours ago, a few days ago, or a dozen days ago, lying silently in the box, entered the suddenly bright Hesley eyes.

"Ah, Ms. Sotu Yali, are you leaving here?" In Xiaoxue, a middle-aged woman who was about to go to age was standing in front of a flower shop, looking at the sign by the door, carrying a bag full of ingredients. Speaking, the words are full of regrets.

"Because of some things, I need to go home." The woman who was taking care of it came to the door, put down the trimming scissors, smiling, "Many times, thank you for your help, Ms. Trevi. Remember to prepare for this house. In the flower shop, you helped me a lot."

"It's all trivial things..." Ms. Trevi looked at Sotu Yali's face, "It's really not very quiet here recently. There are defense forces vehicles everywhere. In fact, it's good to leave here."

"Yes, you have to pay attention to Ms. Trevi recently. I heard that it is very unsafe at night. It is best not to go out." Then, Sotu Yali turned around and picked out a large bunch of flowers and handed them over, "Thank you. With the help of this time, it will be a new year in the near future, and I hope that this place will return to the way it was not long ago."

The lady took the conversation, looked at Sotu Yali's face, and sighed and said, "I wish you can open a bigger flower shop when you go home."

"Thank you." Sotu Yali slightly bent over to thank her, and waited until Ms. Trevi went to the front of the street, then turned and looked at the shadows in the flower shop. In. I remember that this was the technique that was given to me by the previous commander, when we were still developing arms business in the Imperial Manoma."

"But really blending in, won't you make your mood a little sad when you leave?" Hesley walked out of the shadow of the flower shop, wearing a piece of clothing with a light green striped moving company logo, very thick. Now he is a strong porter.

"What about the eleven suitcases in the basement?" Hesley asked, looking at the bunches of flowers beside him, "It's a pity that these flowers are almost at night, and they can't be sold."

"Flower shop, did you make some money?" He thought of something suddenly, and said like a joke, "The small basement you dug out by yourself. Eleven suitcases means there will be 22 runners. Pistols, dozens of reinforced steel bombs, more than a thousand rounds of high-quality platinum bullets, and, most importantly, eleven pneumatic swords made by mechanics of absolute quality."

"In the past year, the price of pneumatic swords in the black market has fluctuated around 15-40 million holy coins. The specifications you like are definitely not cheap. If you do a little calculation, who would have thought of this? The true value of a flower shop is at least more than 160 million sacred coins."

"I thought I had developed the original protection network that was enough to consume funds, but compared to you, it was still too economical." Hesley sighed, but there was no blame in the words, it was all uncontrollable and overflowing with joy. , "It needs to be moved several times, and towed away at one time will attract suspicion, an unexpected chore."

"The flower shop must have made some money, but it can't be used to buy gas weapons at all." It was Sotu Yali and Delya's woman who picked up the scissors again, "Kaka" moved a few times, smiling. Unable to restrain it, he just showed on his face, "In fact, you can stay here as a hidden weapon storage point. But, they will be put into use soon. At the rate of consumption of the group leader, he will definitely not recycle. These things. So, I have to trouble you to move them all away little by little."

"Ready to serve!"

"Where's Waters? I think he is still in a state of excitement. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com He came from the Kingdom of Kyle. It took several days and no time was wasted. When he came here, he came here. He had a face that was extremely tired but looked full of weird spirits. Thinking about it now, there should be only happiness in his body at that time. Among us, he was actually the one who could not sink the most. Delya asked afterwards.

"I took a rest for a day, and then returned to the Kyr Kingdom." Hesley nodded in agreement with Delya's statement, "Said that he would go all the way to explore the past. Because he has been in various small countries for the past two years. , I have impressions of many places. Where there are cheap and sufficient metal and processing industry chains, where are powerful steam furnace towers, where are the transportation networks spreading everywhere, connecting the coordinating country, etc., there are often observe."

"He said he wanted to choose a very good place to be the starting point for the factory. Now, he is enjoying the process of field investigation. The leisure time makes him want to open a small workshop to process cheap bullets. The time is right, and the things after that are enough for him to have no chance to stay idle."

"This is exactly what he hoped." Delya sighed and turned to look at the falling snow around, "It is also what I and you hoped for."
