Wang Yuepi stood by the dilapidated wall, gazing at the blood-soaked city, and for some reason, this phrase came to his mind.

The soldier half-kneeled on the ground and replied solemnly, "Aside from some disturbances at the southern gate, there was no resistance."
"The southern gate?" Wang Yuepi raised an eyebrow. "What happened there?"

Wang Yuepi glared at the soldier, "Say whatever needs to be said."
The soldier gritted his teeth and confessed, "Someone... someone escaped."
"Oh?"
