Outside the house, the wind was cold and heavy rainstorms were shattering the city. A thin figure stood outside the door. In the shadow of the night, his face was blurred, but under the reflection of the candlelight, he could vaguely see the mysterious rosy eyes, and could hear some liquid ticking on the floor.

Luo You walked slowly into the house, his whole body was already wet, and the rain and some scarlet liquid mixed together, leaving blood footprints on the ground. He walked towards a chair next to the fireplace, stretched out his white hands, added some firewood to it, making it burn more vigorously, and said slowly: "Major General Cass, I'm a little cold. Can you ask your servant to help me get a bowl of ginger soup?"

Major General Cas smiled and said, "Little Lei, go."

Xiao Lei looked at Luo You's back and opened his mouth, but said nothing, thinking that if Luo You were malicious, he would have done it long ago, and could he wait until now? So he honestly left the house and walked to the kitchen to make soup.

Without Xiao Lei, the hard-working ghost, Major General Cas leisurely opened the Braille version of "War and Peace" and touched it and read it with his fingers, as if Luo You were just an ordinary visitor, and he didn't care at all.

Soon, only the crackling sound of firewood burning remained in the house. I don’t know how long it took, Major General Cas finally finished touching a chapter. He rubbed his sore fingers, as if he was reminiscing with an old friend: “Col. Luoyou, I have worked hard all day today. Don’t you go to rest early?”

Luo You turned his back to Major General Cas, and a faint voice came: "There are too many people in my room and I can't even get stuffed."

"Why not let them leave?"

"They will no longer move."

Mr. Cass smiled thoughtfully. Although his turbid eyes had lost focus, he seemed to have seen through everything. He put the book together and asked thoughtfully: "I'm a little curious, Colonel Luo You, what did you do in Sanjiangyuan?"

"Take the vows and some old comrades, they seized 600,000 lives from the Wings of Freedom."

"This is a great achievement, why are you exiled to this place?"

"Because I couldn't save them all."

"Hahaha..." Major General Cas stood up tremblingly, and also found a chair to sit down, put his cold hands over and baked them, and said vicissitudes, "What's wrong with the crime you want to add to it."

After roasting for a while, Xiao Lei came back after boiling the soup, but his steps were a little quick and his face turned pale. He put the ginger soup in front of Luo You, then leaned into Major General Kas's ear and said something.

"Go and find a new room for Colonel Luo You." Major General Cas patted Xiao Lei's hand. After he left, he said slowly, "It seems that the fourth company's organization can be cancelled."

Luo You picked up the ginger soup and took a sip. The spicy liquid flowed through his stomach, making him warm. His originally fair face also turned rosy. He said while drinking: "Don't worry... Guru... There are still many items to be cancelled in the past two days... Guru..."

"The Death-Inmate Camp in Skeleton City has two main groups, one is the Brotherhood. Their core members are all in the fourth company and have been killed by you, so now the Wild Dogs dominate the family."

“What is the difference between the two?”

"The sources are different. Most of the members of the Brotherhood are civilian criminals or some wilderness refugees. Most of the wild dogs have been regular soldiers, but they were sent to death camps for various reasons. The two sides have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time. This morning, one of them died and seven were disabled."

"They won't beat them again." Luo You finished his last sip of ginger soup, put the bowl on the table, wiped his mouth gently, and said, "Tomorrow, I'll go to clean up the wild dogs."

Major General Cass was silent for a while and suddenly said, "Col. Luo Yu, do you know why I don't stop you?"

Luo You said calmly: "Because you can't stop me."

"Maybe, but this is just a trivial reason." Major General Cass's turbid eyes moved, as if looking at Luo You, "I didn't stop you because you were not happy with killing. You didn't kill people because you wanted to kill, or to make yourself happy, but you had other purposes."

Luo You smiled briefly: "Oh? For example?"

"Hahaha, I'm not a psychic, I can't read your thoughts." Major General Cass narrowed his blindly, shook his head slowly, and said deeply, "I just want to tell you that killing is simple and efficient. Many people have tried this trick, but they all failed."

"Because they didn't kill enough." As Luo You finished speaking, thunder sounded outside the window, and a brief light shone around like day. Of course, Major General Cas couldn't see this scene.

"It's my turn to ask you, Major General Cass." Luoyou moved his position closer to the stove, pulled his hand up, and looked at the flames, "What do you think is the most important thing in our new era?"

Major General Cas said without hesitation: "Strength."

"Power." The matches in the fireplace were burning red, occasionally bursting with scorching sparks, and all of this was reflected in Luo You's pupils. He opened his palms, as if he was burning fire, or counting Major General Cass, "There are no more than five people in this country who can beat me. But now, these people are staying in the heated suite, lying on a bed softer than feathers, wearing silk pajamas, and perhaps there are servants waiting to fall asleep next to me. And I, soaked, sat in front of the simple fireplace, chatting with an old man who stepped into the coffin with his feet half his feet."

Major General Cass raised the corner of his mouth slightly and added some firewood to the stove to make it burn more vigorously. He did not take on Luo You's topic, but asked meaningfully: "Col. Luo You, do you know how many active-duty soldiers there are in the Republic of China?"

Luo You shrugged: "More than two million."

"As of this evening, the three regions of the North, the Western Regions, and the Jiangnan region have a total of 2.678,126 active soldiers." Major General Cass reported the number of heads as accurately as a machine, and his old hands kept adding firewood to the fireplace, and the flames became increasingly surging. "These people are all loyal to the Grand Marshal of the Republic, why do you think this is?"

“Because of power.”

"But any kid with a knife can kill the Grand Marshal, so what's the point of this power?" Major General Cass's movements did not stop, and continued to pour firewood into it. His turbid eyes were reddened by the flames. "Power is a lie, just like the two,678,126 soldiers under the Grand Marshal, extremely huge, but fragile like a layer of window paper, which could be broken with a light stab."

"Many people tried to control power, but they failed and lost such opportunities forever, just like these firewood that were pressed down below, they could not turn over and could only be burned to ashes." Major General Cass was still investing in firewood, the newly thrown burned, while those who had been thrown in had already burned into scum.

"But even if the firewood is burned to ashes, there will still be new firewood to continue to be invested, and it is constantly because the flames are getting stronger and stronger, and its attraction is getting stronger and stronger." The entire fireplace has almost been filled with the firewood that is put into it, but Major General Cass continues to throw it in, and never stops for a moment. "The old firewood wants to break free from the flames, but it is suppressed and unable to move. The new firewood is ambitious and attempts to conquer this fire. In this way, they are forced or crazily burning, causing the flames to burst out with the greatest light."

Suddenly, Luo You noticed something. He withdrew his hand and squinted his eyes. He heard it so much that the increasingly vigorous flame reached a dangerous temperature, scorching the bandage on his hand and burning all his skin.

"But when the lies of power are torn apart, what is left?" As Major General Cas put the last piece of firewood into the sky, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The originally burning flames lost the oxygen they touched because of too much firewood. With a scream, the previous hot fire disappeared, and disappeared in an instant, leaving only a pile of burnt firewood. His voice also came, "A messy ground"
