"Now, you have one last chance!" the officer said, holding a heated iron, his face fierce. "Tell me, where are your accomplices hiding?"
The female student didn't speak, only struggling with all her might. But with her personal strength, it was clearly impossible to break free from the several adult strong men pinning her down, so this was ultimately futile resistance.
"Ha, good!" the officer sneered, saying, "I see you revolutionaries really don't know what's good for you! Refuse a toast and insist on a penalty!" As he spoke, he was about to thrust the heated iron into her face.
Bang.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly flickered. All the kerosene lamps lit in the room dimmed with it.
The officer, still dazed and not having reacted, was suddenly sent flying backward. The heated iron in his hand spun a few times in mid-air and landed on his stomach with a "clatter."
"Ah!"
The officer let out a pig-like scream, desperately struggling to move the heated iron off his stomach. At the same time, a strange meaty aroma filled the entire room.
This sudden scene stunned everyone present. Their gazes all turned to a man who had appeared in the room as if by magic.
Bang, bang, bang.
Lin Jiu didn't give them time to react and attacked directly. Within seconds, he had knocked these soldiers to the ground, then gently helped the female student up. "Are you alright?"
The female student was also stunned for a moment before asking, "Who are you?"
"Pang Hongwen sent me," Lin Jiu paused, then said, "You should know him, right?"
"You, you are the reinforcements Big Brother Pang mentioned?"
The female student's eyes widened, tears welling up in her eyes. "That's great, it's so good to see you! Wuwuwu, our entire branch organization has been captured... including me, the remaining communicators have all been brought here."
"Don't worry, let's find a safe place to talk slowly," Lin Jiu said, gently helping her up. He flicked his finger towards the officer who was trying to struggle to his feet.
Thud.
The officer lay on his back, eyes wide open, with a black hole in his forehead.
Lin Jiu took a few photos of the dead officer and edited the events into a message to send to the group.
Lazy Kitten: Well done, all these running dogs of the reactionary warlords should be eliminated!
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Indeed, keeping such running dogs around is a waste of food. And people like that, it's hard to change their minds even with re-education, right?
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Yes, those who are reactionary to the bone are indeed difficult to change.
As someone who had been through it, Li Mochou naturally had the right to speak on this. She had once tried in the Southern Song Dynasty to get some stubborn running dogs back on the right track, but the results were very disappointing.
They might yield to you on the surface, but in their hearts, they still adhered to their own way of thinking.
Amegakure Village's Angel: Then there's no need to waste time trying to re-educate these people, just bury them.
Curly-haired Guy: Konan-chan, I agree with what you said. Wig, you scoundrel, aren't you going to surrender?
Wig Guy: ?
Curly-haired Guy: Don't think I don't know, you went to contact the madam of the Peach Blossom Land yesterday! You damn reactionary, Tenten is just thinking about how to get his wife!
Doujin Artist: Huh? Peach Blossom Land?
Curly-haired Guy: It's that kind of place, you know what I mean! But this place is a bit special, all the girls inside are married! The owner there actually sells this as a feature, it's simply disgusting!
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Ew, that's truly disgusting. But Gin-san, why do you know so much about it?
Curly-haired Guy: Of, of course it's because this place is very famous! Anyone who mixes around in Kabukicho knows about it! Don't misunderstand me, a decent person like myself would never go to a place like that!
Soul Society's Villain: If you hadn't said that last sentence, I probably wouldn't have misunderstood.
Wig Guy: I was just gathering information, it's not as dirty as you think, Gintoki.
Curly-haired Guy: Oh, gathering information? Then tell me what information you gathered!
Wig Guy: I suspect the owner of this place has contact with Takasugi, but I can't confirm it yet. I need to find an opportunity to have more contact with the owner! Uh, this might require some funds.
Lazy Kitten: What the hell, you need funds! You're making it sound so convincing! You just want to spend money, you scoundrel!
Doujin Artist: There's no need to ask, this guy definitely wants to spend money.
Curly-haired Guy: Right? The eyes of the masses are sharp! You're still trying to pretend, everyone has seen through you long ago!
This is an Actor: You have eight days left.
Gerard said with a dark face, giving his final notice. He was too lazy to bicker with these two group members anymore. He wanted them to do a group task properly, but they were completely not acting like humans.
Just as he was sighing inwardly, the Harry trio in front of the screen had arrived at the house-elf settlement.
This should be in the heart of the Forbidden Forest, but it had been turned into a huge encampment by the house-elves. Several house-elves were grilling around a bonfire in the center of the camp, and laughter and joy kept coming.
"They actually set up a fortress here," Ron said, staring blankly at the huge structure before him.
In his original expectation, these evil house-elves would either be cowering in dirty gutters or gathering in dark castles to plot secretly. He never expected them to openly establish a settlement in the center of the Forbidden Forest!
"It's so grand," Harry took a breath and said, "How did they even build this?"
"Of course it's magic, I call it architectural magic," a voice suddenly sounded from behind them. "It appeared four hundred years ago, but is it now extinct?"
What?
Harry and the others were caught off guard and turned around abruptly. What met their eyes was a house-elf wearing a tailcoat, looking completely different.
"Welcome to our Home of the Elves, travelers from Hogwarts," Ola said elegantly, smiling. "And my compatriot Dobby, thank you for being our guide."
"Dobby?" Harry's first reaction was that they had been sold, sold by this house-elf named Dobby. This was bad, really bad!
