Chapter 556: Exposed 2
While Director Ford and Butler Philip were at a loss in Paul's office on the second floor, a guard knocked on the office door.
"My lords, Lieutenant Warren said he had urgent military matters and left first."
"What?"
The two were shocked and hurriedly left the office, walked quickly through the corridor, walked to the stairs and looked down.
Sure enough, Burgan Varun's seat as the original author was already empty.
Philip said worriedly: "Emergency military affairs, what's going on?"
Manager Ford was a little frustrated and said regretfully: "Maybe we should have been more decisive just now and controlled him in time."
There was only a whirring sound, and the parrot that was in the office just now flew over along the corridor. While old Ford and Philip were discussing countermeasures, the bird seemed to fly outside through the window.
Are you flying back now?
The parrot flapped its wings, landed on the stair railing, and opened its mouth.
"Schroeder! The army is coming! Schroeder! The army is coming!"
I have to say that this bird raised by Ladi Setia is really amazing. The parrot can actually imitate human speech. Although it is incoherent, the two of them can completely understand what it wants to express.
If it were an ordinary parrot, Controller Ford and Philip might just be confused. However, this is no ordinary parrot, because its owner is not an ordinary woman.
If the guess is correct, Chief of Staff Schroeder is back with the army.
Old Ford thought for a while and said to Philip: "Just now Burgan said that there was urgent military affairs to deal with, is that it? I guess Schroeder noticed Burgan's unusual movements from the beginning, and left the town in the center of the lake in time. We have been looking for reinforcements elsewhere, and now we are leading the army back. "
Phillip didn't know about District 51, but Old Ford, who was the director of the Government Affairs Council, knew. Unable to contact the four infantry battalions who were out for field training in time, Schroeder was most likely to go to the 51st overnight to find the army.
"I...should we help the Chief of Staff?"
Hearing that troops loyal to his lord had returned, Philip was so excited that his lips trembled as he spoke.
"The most effective way is to control this castle. If we succeed, Burgan and his men will definitely be thrown into panic. There will be enemies inside and outside, which will have a great impact on morale."
"You're right, let's go call the guards now. Tell Russ, he is the former guard captain."
The two hurriedly walked down the stairs and returned to the hall where everyone was meeting.
However, a sudden change occurred at this time. A team trotted into the vestibule of the castle. There were about a hundred people. Judging from their clothes, there were militiamen and police. Old Ford and Philip were nervous, wondering what Burgan was going to do.
A man broke into the hall of the Lord's Mansion.
"Bilaire? What are you doing here?"
Russ Hayden, director of the Department of Public Safety, who was also here to attend the meeting, asked suspiciously when he saw the person coming.
Isn't this person Bilaire McReynolds, the captain of the second detachment? He can also be regarded as his subordinate. However, after Huxin Town entered martial law, all the police forces in the city went to cooperate with the military operations.
"Director Hayden, gentlemen!"
Bilaire McReynolds looked very respectful, "There is very bad news. The rebels have begun to attack Lake Town. Lieutenant Burgan went to organize the defense."
After hearing the news, the officials from various ministries who were not aware of it looked at each other in shock. Did they come so soon?
Old Ford and Phillip cursed in their hearts. They were still slandering the warriors who had finally taken over. They were really confusing right and wrong.
The head of the Government Affairs Council asked: "In such an urgent moment, if you don't go to help Burgan, why are you coming to the Lord's Mansion?"
Bilaire explained: "Such an important place as the Lord's Mansion is naturally the top priority to protect. Chief Burgan was afraid that some thugs in the city would take advantage of the chaos to attack the Lord's Mansion, so he sent us to strengthen the security here. Also. Yes, in view of the current chaotic situation, the lieutenant said that all adults must stay in the castle. The police force in Lake Center Town is currently insufficient, so I can only force you to stay here for centralized protection. "
Phillip was very angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He's obviously here to spy on us, that bastard Burgan.
Others were also very upset. After having meetings all night and all morning, they thought they could go back to their own beds and have a good sleep.
Old Ford stroked his beard as usual and said: "In this case, why not bring the family members of everyone here to the Lord's Mansion so that we can take care of them together. If there are thugs who are supporting the rebels in the city, they can also stay at home. Very dangerous."
Phillip was startled, and immediately understood that Director Ford was going to die. After bringing the families of the officials to the Lord's Mansion, and after falling out with Burgan, everyone had no worries. If they stayed outside, even if they could control the Lord's Mansion Castle, they would still leave a lot of hostages outside.
But Bilaire McReynolds didn't know that Controller Ford already knew the truth about the rebellion. He thought that the old man in front of him was still in the script they wrote.
There was a trace of imperceptible ridicule in the eyes of the police detachment leader, haha, you said this yourself.
"Sir Ford, I'll do it right now."
He bowed slightly to the acting lord Yurio to show respect, then turned and left the hall.
There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!
After watching Bilaier leave, Butler Ford turned to the head of the Public Security Department and shouted:
"Ruth, come here, I have something to tell you."
Before becoming the head of the Public Security Department, Ruth Hayden led the guards of the Lord's Mansion and was the man with the highest military power here.
About two hours later, the officials' families were taken into the castle.
"Close the door!"
After the last person entered the castle, the militia captain Zane who came to the Lord's Mansion to participate in the security mission ordered the castle gate to be closed.
For some reason, Zane always felt strange in his heart.
That Lieutenant Burgan said that there were lurking rebels in the city, but after the martial law began, the militia in Tata Town received the task of patrolling the streets. Zane has been leading his brothers to patrol the streets since early morning, but he has never seen or heard any unusual movements.
Could it be that the rebels were frightened and hid after seeing the official preparations?
Why would they rebel with such courage? Even if they don't dare to start a rebellion with real weapons, can't they just start a few fires secretly?
Lord Graman was assassinated by such a group of cowards, it's really a bit...
Just when Zane was thinking about it, a loud noise suddenly came from the hall of the lord's mansion, mixed with screams of fear.
What...what happened?
The nervous Zane immediately thought of something bad - could it be that some rebels had sneaked into the lord's mansion and were hacking people in the castle hall?
I was just complaining about them.
Alas! Zane stomped his feet on the ground in frustration and called his brothers, "Let's go and take a look."
