…
Xiahou Yong continued:
"I hope everyone present here will take this as a warning and not take military discipline lightly!"
Li Xinghe, Tian Baiguang and others looked at each other.
The leader has spoken, so we have to give him some face.
Then they shouted in unison:
"yes!"
"We will definitely abide by the rules, be strict with ourselves, and live up to Director Xiahou's high expectations!"
"Yeah!" Xiahou Yong nodded with satisfaction.
Alice interrupted:
"Director Xiahou, I believe they won't be as cowardly as Kikujiro!"
"Everyone present here is a rare talent! They are all great men of the Federation!"
"Oh?" Xiahou Yong was surprised.
"What do you mean?"
How could these people deserve such high praise from Alice?
Alice then told them how she led them out of the city to look for Zuo Qinglong and how they were surrounded by king-level monsters.
When Zuo Qinglong heard this, he was surprised.
He quickly bowed to these people to express his gratitude.
Although with his strength, he didn't need their search or support at all.
But he remembered this favor...
Just as everyone was exchanging polite words of thanks and thank you,
A discordant voice sounded:
"Are you all back safely?"
“That’s really cause for celebration!”
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, Kikujiro and 26 others walked up the city wall.
Xiahou Yong, Alice and other people from the Demon Hunting Bureau suddenly looked grim.
Li Xinghe and his group had expressions of gloating on their faces, and looked at them with strange eyes.
How dare these people come back?
They don't know yet that they have been disqualified and blacklisted by the military, hahahaha...
Alice asked coldly:
"Your name is Kikujiro, right? I wonder where you guys went just now?"
When Alice asked this question, many of the 26 people on the opposite side immediately avoided her gaze and looked embarrassed.
Kikujiro's expression remained normal, and he said as a matter of course:
"The enemy that attacked just now was too strong. We will retreat first."
"Why, Lady Alice, are you going to praise us for our foresight and ability to judge the situation?"
Alice was so angry that she trembled when she heard this.
There are such shameless people in the world!
Not only did he make light of such a serious violation of discipline as deserting the battlefield, he also distorted right and wrong, and still wanted her praise?
“Hehehe…”
Alice smiled wryly:
"Kikujiro, you're pretty good."
"You're all good too!"
She looked around at the 26 people and changed the subject:
"We at the Demon Hunting Bureau wouldn't dare to court such a talent..."
"You can go now!"
"What?"
"What's the meaning?"
These people suddenly became agitated.
Someone said:
"Master Alice, what do you mean by that?"
"Yes, make your words clear!"
"Why are you asking us to leave?"
"Is it because we didn't live and die with the soldiers here?"
"We're not soldiers! We're here to participate in the selection and have helped defend the city. Do you still want us to give up our lives here?"
"Why would you, the Demon Hunting Bureau, disqualify us from the election just because of this?"
"Yes, why?"
…
The more Zuo Qinglong listened, the more he couldn't bear it anymore.
What are the values of these people?
He could no longer bear it and shouted:
"Shut up!"
"You are a bunch of cowards!"
"It's precisely because you're not soldiers that Lady Alice didn't hold you accountable and let you leave safely!"
"Still not satisfied?"
A dark-skinned man pointed at Zuo Qinglong and cursed:
"Who do you think you are?"
"Do you have a say here?"
Kikujiro also said sarcastically:
"You still dare to talk about us?"
He pointed at Zuo Qinglong, then at Li Xinghe and his group.
"If it weren't for you, they would have all left the city, and the defenses on the city walls wouldn't have become so weak."
"Then the Lizardmen won't have a chance to take advantage!"
"This place wouldn't be in such a mess, and there wouldn't be so many people injured!"
Kikujiro put a series of accusations on Zuo Qinglongtou, but never mentioned their responsibility for deserting the battlefield. He completely shirked the blame!
Zuo Qinglong laughed in anger:
"You mean to say that it was my fault that you deserted the battlefield?"
Kikujiro nodded:
"Yes, that's right!"
"It's because of you!"
"Also, that's not called deserting the battlefield, that's called avoiding danger!"
"Besides, did we escape? If we did, would we still be here?"
"Shut up!"
Situ Han and Wang Mingyuan couldn't bear it anymore.
Situ said coldly:
"Originally, this was an internal matter of the Demon Hunting Bureau, so I couldn't discuss it."
"But I can't stand watching you, kid, making up stories and confusing right and wrong."
"You said that this tragic situation here is caused by little brother Zuo Qinglong?"
"Then do you know that he saved my life and Commander Wang's life?"
"If he hadn't turned the tide outside the city and killed two lizardmen, Demon Slayer City would have been destroyed by now. How could you still be so arrogant here?"
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
The group led by Kikujiro was extremely shocked.
Not only did he save City Lord Situ and Commander Wang, he also killed two lizardmen in a row?
