While her subordinates were cleaning up Sir Kenick’s henchmen, Queen Yekana also patiently watched this new movie made by Jose.
“Sir, we have already taken control of the guards stationed in this city and the gathering place of the evil cult that you marked. No one survived.”
A knight slowly came to Empress Yekana’s side. The news that he had reported to Empress Yekana was very satisfactory to her.
“What should we do next?”
This knight was wearing a helmet, but judging from his voice, he was a middle-aged man. The mark of the sword and the Flames on his armor was undoubtedly Empress Yekana’s most capable personal guard, the iron forger!
“Wait quietly,”Queen Yekana said.
“Wait?”
The knight glanced at the crowd gathered below. Now was undoubtedly the best time to announce Sir Kennick’s ‘Rebellion’to the audience. They had already gathered enough evidence, in front of the public, he would announce the things that this knight had done one by one, and he would only end up with a discredited end.
“What do you think of this movie?”
Empress Yekana, however, had a different arrangement. She turned around and asked the knight beside her.
“It’s a little… boring.”This ironmaker was also a man of steel who had seen the world. He had seen many movies in Nolan’s cinema, but his favorite was indeed the special effects explosive “Avatar.”.
As for this movie, ‘the boy in striped pajamas’, he had taken some time to watch it while he was chasing after the inquisitor in the square below. He had a general understanding of the plot, and this movie was very boring to him.
Empress Yekana did not say anything. At this moment, the ironmaker understood that the Empress’silence meant ‘your answer is not good enough.’
“If I’m not wrong, the background of this movie should be our country, or is it during a war? The boy’s father is just following the orders of the higher-ups, and the quarantine zone is also a necessary existence. If I were the father of that little boy, I would definitely not allow him to talk to the children of the enemy country. It’s too dangerous.”
The Knight looked at the scene in the distance. The son of a noble officer was neatly dressed as he sat in front of a prisoner’s child. There was a barbed wire fence between them, the dirty marks on the prisoner’s child’s body and the prisoner’s clothes formed a sharp contrast.
They were talking about soldiers. The conversation between the two children was very naive. As the protagonist, the little boy did not have the concept of ‘war’and ‘soldier’in his mind, he simply thought that the peers sitting in front of him were only working on the farm.
“Are you worried about that little boy?”Empress Yekana asked another question.
The Knight was stunned for a short while. He realized that he had already put himself into this movie.
“If it’s my child, sir.”
“Don’t you think that the real pitiful one is the boy who wears the prison uniform in the Quarantine Zone?”
Empress Yekana’s new question was very fatal. The knight pondered for a long time before he came up with an answer that he thought Empress Yekana would be satisfied with.
“I am a soldier, sir… I will not pity the enemy, even if it is a little boy,”he said firmly.
“But the civilians of the country of steel below… will not.”Empress Yekana looked at the expressions of the people in the Flower Square, many people’s expressions had changed slightly because they saw the two little boys playing through the barbed wire fence.
“But I don’t think they will sympathize with people from other countries just because of this movie,”the knight retorted in a low voice.
“Maybe you’re right.”
Queen Yekana calculated and found that the movie had been almost an hour. The Little Boy from the noble officer was the most depicted in the movie.
The movie only focused on him, not even the refugees in the quarantine zone.
The only thing that could make the people sympathize with the refugees were a few scenes where the noble officer beat up the refugee servants for no reason.
These scenes might make some soft-hearted people sympathize with the refugees, but Queen Yekana still didn’t feel anything when she saw this.
Queen Yekana was waiting… If the goal of this movie was really to make the audience sympathize with the refugees, then the narrative method was too indiscriminating!
It wasn’t until the plot progressed to the point where the two of them once again talked face to face in front of the barbed wire fence.
“The soil here is very soft! I can find a tool to go to your side, I can blend in, right? If I go to your side.”
“You can become very similar to me, if you dress like me, and then shave your hair.”
The noble officer’s boy thought of running to the quarantine zone on a whim. After all, in his eyes, the quarantine zone was just an ordinary farm.
The two children began to discuss this plan excitedly, as if it was just an adventure.
“This is the reason why I don’t allow my son to communicate with the enemy.”The Knight’s expression under the visor had become very serious.
The Little Boy did not realize how dangerous the things he did were..
“You should first teach your son how cruel the world of adults is.”
Empress Yekana’s hands had already clenched tightly. The Little Boy’s innocent appearance reminded Empress Yekana of some sad memories.
The Little Boy’s plan went very smoothly. No one noticed that he came to the outside of the quarantine zone with a shovel. Another little boy also brought clothes from the quarantine zone.
Therefore, he put on the clothes that were only ‘striped pajamas’in his eyes. Then, he used the shovel to shovel away the soil on the ground and drilled into the place that was only ‘farm’in his eyes.
“His father should be able to find out soon.”
The cast iron man frowned under the visor. He felt that after watching the movie for so long, the story finally began to tell about the encounter in the quarantine zone.
Empress Yekana did not make a sound… but the plot in the movie progressed faster than she imagined.
The soldiers in the quarantine zone violently drove the refugees out of their homes and ordered them to walk toward a certain place.
When the camera turned again, the little boy’s mother had already realized that her son was lost. She ran to his father and told him about it.
The noble officer who was the father also showed a panicked expression. He immediately ordered his men to look for his son.
When the camera turned to the little boy, he had been pushed into a room made of steel along with the crowd. Neither the movie nor the audience could figure out what would happen next.
However, a premonition appeared in everyone’s hearts.
A small gap was opened in the room made of steel. A soldier wearing a mask that could isolate toxins poured out some black dust.
“What is that? Is it used to bathe?”The knight remembered that there was a refugee in the movie who guessed optimistically that the soldiers just wanted to bathe them.
“Poison… a fatal poison. This place is not some quarantine zone, but a slaughterhouse that burned the corpses of the refugees after they were killed.”
Empress Yekana finally understood what the ‘black smoke’that was always mentioned in the movie meant.
“It’s really… damn it.”The knight could not help but shout in a low voice after he understood what had happened.
The Sky in the movie started to rain cats and dogs. The father sent all his men to search around, but in the end, the mother followed the soldiers to the entrance of the quarantine zone that the little boy had dug out with a shovel, when he saw the clothes that the little boy had changed into… all he could do was kneel on the ground and cry out in pain.
When the boy’s father learned of this, he rushed into the quarantine zone in fear, but it was already too late.
The happy ending that Empress Yekana had expected did not happen. The whole movie slowly ended in this depressing atmosphere. The little boy finally died because of his naivety… under the vicious rationality of the adults.
“This is not a fairy tale.”Empress Yekana finally understood what Jose had said when he introduced the movie to her.
When she saw the actors behind the scenes appear, she directly turned around and walked toward the flower plaza below.
There were already many people who had fallen into silence because of the abrupt ending of the movie. The woman covered the eyes of her child, the Man took off the hat he was wearing on his head… it started to drizzle above the flower plaza.
But no one left.
“What is the filmmaker thinking? Is He taking revenge on us in this way?”The Knight followed Empress Yekana and asked cautiously.
“A warning. This is the purpose of this movie… You can treat it as a needle and stab it into your conscience. Just feel the pain and discomfort,”Empress Yekana said.
