Chapter 156 Brutal Violence
[October 3, 21:10]
[Moonlight Building, Lakeside Business District, Peripheral Plaza]
After Acting City Speaker Schenkov issued a ceasefire order, the riots that swept through Crescent City reached its peak.
Thugs from various major groups smashed, looted and burned along the way. The Rusty Wall area was completely occupied by the rioters.
Without armed forces to stop them, rioters have begun to flock to the high-tech park, smashing corporate office buildings, and even the Lakeside business district has seen rioters.
The entire Crescent City fell into unprecedented riots, and the chaos outside the Moonlight Building where the kidnapping case occurred was even more extreme.
The security forces set up a cordon, and there were heavy armored vehicles and armed soldiers everywhere around the square. They blocked the scene to prevent the crowd from approaching, and at the same time looked anxiously at the Xinghai Cinema on the 12th floor of the Moonlight Building.
The major media have already heard the news and rushed to the scene. The reporter is standing in front of the camera and nervously broadcasting: "Friends in the audience, I am standing in the square outside the Moonlight Building. The Crow's Nest thugs kidnapped 315 teachers and students of Chiyang Affiliated Primary School and threatened the authorities to do... If there is a compromise, the situation on site is extremely tense!”
"The security forces have cordoned off the scene, and we are temporarily unable to know the situation inside Xinghai Cinema. It is reported that city council officials are meeting overnight to find a suitable solution!"
"In this moment of crisis, we urge everyone to pray for the hostages while also protecting their own safety! We believe that the city council will make every effort to ensure that this nightmare ends as soon as possible!"
The reporter, who has always looked down upon the excitement, could not hide his nervousness and worry at this time. The cameras on the scene were trembling to capture every detail. The sense of urgency brought by the live broadcast filled the hearts of every audience.
In addition to the security forces, reporters, and onlookers, there was another group of people present who were closely related to the hostages kidnapped in Xinghai Cinema.
Motorcades are constantly coming on the streets, each of which is a luxury business car worth hundreds of millions. Men and women in suits and ties step out of them, as well as a large number of fully armed personal bodyguards.
These are the parents of children from the Chiyang Affiliated Primary School. Each of them is an elite member of the upper class of society, including many important figures in the chaebol or the government.
They have experienced countless storms and waves, and they panic when their children are threatened.
"Son. How is my son?!"
"What do you soldiers do for food? Why do you let thugs rush into a place like this?!"
"Why don't you launch a rescue? If something happens to my only daughter, I will never be done with you!!!"
"Call your commander out! I want to talk to him directly! Now!"
The commander of the on-site security forces was sweating profusely and stammering, not knowing who to answer.
If ordinary citizens were aggressive, he could just ignore them or even take them down for disturbing order.
But in the face of these big shots, he wouldn't dare to do this even if he didn't have the guts to do so.
The commander could only console in a kind voice: "Gentlemen and ladies, please calm down. The higher authorities are negotiating with the thugs. We will do our best to ensure the safety of the hostages. I believe it will be soon."
Before he could finish his words, a fierce noise suddenly came from the scene, and everyone pointed at the Moonlight Building: "Look at that!"
The commander looked back, his expression suddenly changed, he turned on the communicator and said: "Sniper, the thugs showed up at the 12th floor window of the Moonlight Building, waiting for instructions, don't shoot! Repeat, wait for instructions, don't shoot!"
On the 12th floor of the Moonlight Building, Muto Toei stood struttingly in front of the window, not hiding his figure at all. He knew very well that no one dared to shoot him now.
Reporters directed their cameras to focus on Muto Toei.
The onlookers also turned on their cell phone cameras to focus on the scene.
The soldiers in the dark and light were nervously holding their guns and looking in that direction.
Now, this big thug from the Crow's Nest has become the focus of the Crescent City.
Muto Toei's eyes flashed with a bloody cold light, and he said ferociously: "The stupid and selfish Schenkov refused to cooperate with us. He may have misjudged the determination of Crow's Nest. Now, I will make him wake up!"
Muto Toei raised his hand, and a weak figure was carried onto the window sill.
It was a weak girl, with a noose around her neck and the other end tied to the window sill.
Before anyone could react, Muto Toei pushed her out.
"No!!!!"
Under everyone's desperate roar, the noose was stretched to the limit, and the girl's neck snapped with a "click", and her body hung there swaying in the wind, like a damaged rag doll.
The scene fell into unprecedented horror.
The onlookers had dull eyes, crossed themselves on their chests and prayed tremblingly, with tears overflowing in their eyes without realizing it.
The reporters stood there at a loss. They had always been able to stir up topics on any occasion, but now they were speechless in front of the camera.
The soldiers of the security force roared with blood and anger, and the bloodshot eyes of these passionate men were dyed red. They had guns in their hands but had nowhere to use them, so they could only watch helplessly.
"Nanny!! Ah!!!" Heart-piercing screams came from the scene. A woman cried and fainted. The husband next to her also collapsed on the ground, looking at the girl hanging on the noose. Howling.
At this moment, this atrocity has spread to all parts of the world through the media, and the barrages on major live broadcast websites have reached boiling point.
【Grass! What kind of skill does this bitch have to do to a child? ! 】
【Are you crazy? ! What did the little girl do wrong? You guys in the crow's nest have the guts to challenge the fourth lesson of counterattack! 】
[Go to hell with those border dogs, is this your king? Killing an innocent child? 】
【Crazy beast! Waiting to be liquidated! I wish this devil’s whole family death! ! ! 】
[Great, let’s pop the champagne! This is retribution. Why didn't you people in the inner city think of today when you were killing people in the border areas? 】
[I really don’t know what everyone is doing here. Do you care about how many children in our border areas die every day? Are you excited about the death of an inner-city kid? 】
[Those barrages in front of me, are you still human beings when you are in confrontation at this time? 】
[What does this have to do with this person? Shouldn’t the murder of innocent children, whether on the frontier or in the inner city, be condemned? ! 】
[I can’t stand it anymore. I have no empathy at all. You deserve to be discriminated against! 】
On the 12th floor of the Moonlight Building, Muto Toei stood in front of the window sill, with a sinister smile on his face, and shouted arrogantly in front of the crowd:
"This is our ultimate warning to the city council!"
"From now on, I will carry out an execution every other day! If the city council does not accept our demands, at this time tomorrow, I will execute two, the day after tomorrow, four, and the day after tomorrow eight!"
"I will keep fighting until the last drop of blood is shed or the city council compromises!"
