"The C-rank starfish that killed your husband has been killed by the Tiger Wolf Squad. The crystal core now belongs to them, and I have no right to distribute it.
As for the other C-level crystal cores, they are strategic materials. Except for those that have owners, each one is extremely precious and requires a large amount of points to exchange. I can't give them to you directly."
"But my family should have a C-level crystal core!"
Aunt Zhou was anxious and blurted out:
"Captain Xu Yan, you're so powerful at such a young age, and you're the base commander. Can't you just give my family a crystal core?"
This shameless attitude made people around frown.
Someone couldn't help but sneer, "According to what you said, if someone is killed by a monster, there should be a crystal core.
If I am killed by that B-level Sea Anemone Lord, should the B-level crystal core of that Sea Anemone Lord belong to me?
If an S-level monster comes and kills everyone, will you still go to the underworld to ask for an S-level crystal core?"
"That's right!" another sarcastic voice said, "So many people died in this war, many of them at the hands of C-level monsters. According to your logic, doesn't every family have to get a C-level crystal core? You can't use it, so you're just occupying the toilet without doing anything, right?"
"The base commander bravely fought on the most dangerous front lines to protect everyone, and led everyone in disaster relief and reconstruction efforts. Now he's being blackmailed and morally blackmailed by a short-sighted, greedy old woman. How pitiful."
"I heard that in other bases, the law of the jungle prevails. If she dared to blackmail others, she would have been thrown into the sea with her eldest son to feed the fish~"
The righteous onlookers chattered and mocked Aunt Zhou, who was dreaming, but there were also rational voices trying to dissuade her.
Shen Lanzhou raised his eyebrows in surprise, and followed the direction of the voice to see Yan Hai and several other young faces hiding in the crowd, pinching their noses and talking.
What's even more powerful is that they run in one direction with one voice and in the other direction with another, and they enjoy being a navy very much.
Of course, in addition to the "water army" that controls public opinion, there are also voices from real audiences.
Some people think that since the husband died for the base, she should get a C-level crystal core.
Some people retorted and mocked the other party for having bad intentions.
There was a lot of commotion and endless arguments.
Overall, I was quite restrained. After all, it wasn't on the internet, but a face-to-face exchange. It would be interesting to accidentally piss someone off and have a solo on the spot.
However, the overall direction of public opinion is still controlled by the base officials headed by Xu Yan.
As the base commander, Xu Yan had some things that were not suitable to be said in public, especially when the other party was the family member of a fallen soldier.
But she would not agree to such an outrageous request even if she is in her right mind, so the control of public opinion will depend on other friends.
"Mom! What are you doing?!"
A half-grown boy, his face flushed with embarrassment, stormed into the crowd, grabbed the old mother's wrist, and dragged her out: "Let's go back! Don't embarrass yourself here!"
"But your father's crystal core..."
"That's not my dad's crystal core! The core belongs to whoever killed the monster, not the person who was killed! I told you not to believe their lies. You're trying to discredit my dad!"
This kid has some intelligence and he shifted the blame to his mother in just a few words. Others just think that Aunt Zhou is not smart and has been bewitched and deceived.
Rather than a bad, stupid, greedy and treacherous villain.
The farce came to a hasty end with the intervention of the son. Seeing that no one was the first to step forward, the other people who were crying and protesting did not want to be the clowns and they all dispersed.
Shen Lanzhou stood aside and watched the whole process quietly.
OK, good job.
But it is too kind. As a ruler, he is criticized for his age and appearance. This is a sign of being looked down upon.
You Jie and his group's former classmates betrayed the base and secretly traded people with the fishmen for personal gain.
Shen Lanzhou also talked with Xu Yan about the fate of these people.
There were two reasons why Xu Yan killed them secretly. One was that there was insufficient evidence, and the other was that You Jie was her classmate and originally their partner. If she executed him in public, she was worried that it would affect other classmates.
Shen Lanzhou’s answer was: stupid.
The most important thing to do at this time is to expose the other party's crimes with lightning speed and execute them publicly in front of the entire base.
The issue of evidence is easy. Just use coercion, inducement, torture, and if that doesn't work, you can just fabricate some. Anyway, you know the other party is guilty, so there is no need to worry about framing a good person.
As for what the other students thought, that didn't matter. They were classmates, but Xu Yan was the head of the base, the ruler of the base.
If someone has second thoughts simply because they executed their former classmate, now a criminal, then it's better for that classmate not to do it.
Rather, the real trouble would be if the secret act was exposed with exaggerated details.
Shen Lanzhou has secretly locked onto the whereabouts of the Tiger and Wolf Squad. What she needs to do now is to observe whether there is anyone behind the other party and whether they have committed any crimes.
If it was a group of evolvers who were not clean themselves, Shen Lanzhou would help them to look decent.
If you haven't done anything evil, then it will be a bit troublesome. Please ask Lily to chew off the part of your brain that stores memories.
Great Memory Eraser (Physical) (Parasite Version)
There was someone behind this farce, and Shen Lanzhou had even found the culprit's lair.
But a group of ulterior motives in evolving are not her target, so she can just leave it to Xu Yan to deal with.
What Shen Lanzhou was looking for was the yellow rat hidden deeper underground.
The other party hid too deeply and acted too cautiously, so Shen Lanzhou couldn't find any clues for a while.
