"They were killed by me!"

"Captain Jerram was killed by my own hands!"

Reynolds' words were like a muffled thunderclap that shook Russell Hill's head.

Looking at his appearance, Renault sighed, patted Russell Hill on the shoulder and walked away.

Looking back, Russell Hill shouted, "Renault! ”

Renault stopped and looked back.

Russell Hill said word for word: "Why? Why? ”

Renault tilted his head, "That's the second question, Mr. Hill." ”

Then he ignored Hill and just left.

Looking at his departing back, Hill felt dazed.

He looked around, and the soldiers around him were looking at him one by one.

Russell Hill yelled, "Did you hear me? It was he, Jonny Renault, who killed his own chief! He was the one who killed Captain Jerram! He's not the hero you think he's like, he's a traitor, a traitor, a murderer! Are you still going to follow him? ”

The soldiers did not speak, but looked at him with indifferent expressions, and ate on their own.

Someone wanted to say something, but was hit by the soldier next to him with a shoulder blow, and then lowered his head again.

Some of the well-fed soldiers stood up and left silently.

More soldiers just sat and looked at Hill like dead men.

Ciel felt a chill emanating from the bottom of his heart.

That's indifference, blatant disregard!

Suddenly he understood.

I was wrong from the start.

It's never been a secret, and everyone here knows what happened.

It was never a murder carried out by Renault personally.

This is carried out in groups.

This is a mutiny!

Russell Hill shuddered involuntarily.

Russell Hill, who finally understood what was happening, was in pain, despair, and the anger of being deceived overflowed in his chest, but he couldn't vent it, making him feel uncomfortable for a while.

Hill sat limply in his place, unable to speak.

His desperate look finally made some people unbearable.

A soldier walked over and patted Hill on the shoulder and said, "Hey, man, don't think about it. There are some things that you are not destined to understand, and some things are not what you think. ”

Hill looked up at the soldier, who turned to leave.

Looking at the soldier's back, Hill suddenly said loudly, "What did you mean when you said that you were destined to not understand?" ”

The soldier paused, looked back at Ciel, and said, "It's nothing, it's just to persuade you to give up trying things you can't figure out." ”

"How do you know it's something that doesn't make sense?" Hill asked rhetorically.

The soldier froze, ignored him, turned and went on.

Hill realized something, and he said, "Because you don't know that either, do you?" ”

The soldier froze.

Hill looked back at everyone in the cafeteria, and the soldiers stopped their spoons and looked at Hill together.

They didn't speak, just had indifference in their eyes.

Hill understood.

He nodded: "I see. No wonder, no wonder Jonny Renault left me here and didn't care. There are 2,800 soldiers here, a full 2,800 men. According to the normal situation, there are always some people who can't help but talk about the original thing because of their quick mouth. But I have been on this ship for many days, and I have never heard you talk about what happened to Abrodius, and no matter how much I tried, I did not get even a hint of relief. Because you obey military discipline? Come on, I don't believe that. If every soldier is a good child, what else do you need from the gendarmes and investigators? Now I know, because you don't know the truth either, do you? ”

He looked at everyone and said word by word: "You participated in a mutiny, but you don't know the truth about this mutiny?" ”

He looked at the expressions on everyone's faces, and at that moment, he knew he had guessed correctly.

Hill nodded: "It's incredible, I don't know why, but I'll definitely find out the truth." Renault didn't tell me, so I checked it in my own way. I'll definitely find out! ”

He shouted like a lone fighter, standing under the banner of the hunt and making his solemn declaration.

Claire couldn't take it anymore.

She stood up and walked over to Russell Hill.

Coming to Ciel's side, she said, "I admire your persistence, but why can't you try to open your mind?" It's good for you to be less clinging. ”

"Open your mind? Less obsessive? Russell Hill repeated Claire's words, and he laughed.

He laughed wildly, proudly, and unbridledly.

He suddenly jumped up, jumped onto the stage, and said loudly: "I have put my whole life into it for this case." In order to get the truth, I even became an accomplice of traitors! The stupidest decision I've ever made was to trust Renault and help him save you for the sake of damn justice! But what did I get? I've gotten into a mess of muddy waters, and I'm just as wanted as you are, but that's the answer? A mutiny? How do you let me open my mind to face all this? My whole life was ruined by this bastard Renault, and I shouldn't have believed him in the first place! ”

All the soldiers were silent.

"Why did you believe him in the first place?" Claire said, "It was because he was trying to save us, right?" You think he's a good guy, so you believe he's not that kind of guy. In that case, why don't you choose to continue believing in Him? ”

"What do you believe in him? He himself admitted that he killed Captain Jeram! Russell Hill roared.

"Believe in him as a person." Claire said.

She grabbed Ciel's arm and comforted him as he got off the table.

Only then did he say softly: "Sometimes we must not only see with our eyes and hear with our ears, but also learn to think with our brains and experience with our hearts." Mr. Hill, you've known Renault for a while, do you think he's the kind of guy who will do anything for the sake of his future? ”

Russell Hill was stunned, then shook his head: "You want to tell me that he has a hard time?" Did you do it out of necessity? So why didn't he say it? ”

"He doesn't tell you because he wants to help you."

"What?" Russell Hill.

"He wants to let you go." Claire said, "Your heart is not here. You're different from Amon Parma, you're not like Sarah, your heart isn't here, there's no room for you to show your talents. In the observation of this time, we have come to realize. Maybe it was a mistake for us to take you on board from the start. So Renault wants you to go, but that needs a suitable opportunity. ”

Hill finally understood.

"He didn't tell me the truth because that might cause the Federation to know what happened on the Abrodys?"

Claire nodded.

If Renault tells Hill the truth, then when the Federation finds Hill, that's when the Federates know everything - even without mind reading, modern equipment gives them more than enough ways to get a confession, even if Hill himself knows he can't hide secrets.

But what kind of truth is it that makes Renault unwilling to let the Federation know?

Hill couldn't understand that with Renault's current situation, they didn't have to worry about anything, after all, they were already wanted criminals, and they didn't have to worry about any crimes.

Claire stood up.

She walked past Hill and left a message:

"The fleet will arrive in Condham in two months, and by that time we will let you go, and we will claim that we have kidnapped you. As for the truth of Jerram's case, listen to me, and that's it. ”

Looking at Claire's back, Hill fell into deep thought.

Claire's meaning has been made clear, if he doesn't give up, he may be able to find the truth, but he may also face eternal detention.

The moment of truth, that is, the moment of loss of freedom.

What the hell should I do? At that moment, Hill's heart also hesitated.

Hill has a heartfelt love for solving crimes.

Every time a case is solved and the truth is found, Hill's heart is filled with great satisfaction. Without this disdainful dedication and pursuit of the truth, he would not have been a good investigator, let alone come to the Abrodius.

He once thought that he could even leave life and death behind in order to solve the case.

But now, in this moment, between freedom and truth, Hill hesitated.

He didn't know what to do.

Reason told him that stopping immediately was the best option, but the passion in his heart made him always want to uncover the mystery.

The soldiers were still noisy and talking in the cafeteria, and the previous events had passed and did not affect their mood.

But looking at their appearance, Hill's mind involuntarily conjured up images of them holding weapons, mutiniing under the leadership of Renault, and hunting down those commanders one by one.

The young faces who were drinking tea, eating, talking and laughing, and saying witty words automatically transformed into terrifying faces that were hideous in the killing, marching in blood, and laughing wantonly in the sound of gunfire, which made Hill shudder.

A young soldier walked past Hill.

Hill remembered his name as Daniel, a communications soldier, a shy young man. Even when talking to people, they will show a shy expression. But now when Hill looked at this shy face again, what appeared in his mind was the image of this young and shy face holding a gun and coldly shooting his own commander.

Hill couldn't adjust the gap, and everyone became like a beast in his eyes, making him unable to believe it anymore.

Unless the truth is found!

Unless the truth is found!

Unless the truth is found!

It was like a spell that rumbled in his ears and made him almost mad.

At that moment, he finally made a decision.

He stood up again, slowly but forcefully.

All the soldiers stopped at the same time and looked at Hill together.

"I know some people might think it was a stupid decision," he said. But who wouldn't be stupid in this life? The reason why I am on this ship is to find the truth. Threats or temptations, there is no reason for me to stop the search for the truth. So I'm not going to give up, I'm not going to give up on the search for the truth. ”

"Jonny Reynaud led you in a mutiny. This is treason! Of course, for those of you who are already fugitives, this crime doesn't matter. But I believe that there are still some people who have their own glory and will not accept crimes that do not belong to them! Even if you have become a fugitive, you must defend your reputation! That's the integrity of a soldier! ”

"So, if anyone feels that he is innocent, that he does not feel that he has committed treason, and if he also wants to know what really happened on the former Abrodius and why it happened, then please come to me."

"My room number is 1412, and I'm there waiting for his arrival!"

"You give me an answer, and I will give you the truth!"
