Blackstone Code

People actually have a misunderstanding about "tough guys"!

This misunderstanding comes from film and television works, including literary creations. When people shape the word "tough guy", they hope that readers and viewers can associate him with "hard as a stone".

But in fact, there are no tough guys in this world. Even if you have superhuman will, you still have to make concessions in the face of instinct!

The screams resounded through the command room immediately. Even though the tough guy soon gritted his teeth to prevent himself from screaming more, the people outside the door had already heard the screams in the command room just now.

An assistant to the director-general left the room and closed the door. He stood at the door and did not leave.

The others more or less understood what was happening inside and all looked away, but their attention remained here.

The severe pain caused the officer's adrenaline to start secreting. After the initial sharp pain, he screamed and the pain quickly became less overwhelming.

His eyes began to turn red, and he stared at the Director-General, "I lost a finger, but someone will lose a life!"

The Director-General sheathed the dagger, "I don't care, actually."

"You don't need to threaten me with the lives of innocent people, or even the lives of members of Congress, it's useless."

"Everyone will only put this account on you people, not me, or anyone else here."

"After people have been sad for a while, they will gradually forget the pain, and new members will be elected. Even if you kill everyone inside, it will have no impact on me at all!"

"I'm here to take charge of your damn things, just to give an explanation to the people!"

There was a hint of mockery on the Director-General's face, "Look, it's just an explanation, not what I have to do."

"You don't have to cooperate, but I believe that soon you will become a piece of things instead of a 'person'."

The officer gritted his teeth and said nothing. He just stared at the director-general fiercely.

The director-general just cut off the thumb of his right hand, which directly destroyed his design ability over the years!

Without his thumb, he wouldn't be able to hold the handle of the gun, and he wouldn't even be able to use ordinary tools in the future——

After losing the thumb, it is no longer possible to use the tiger's mouth to firmly hold objects, and the grip strength plummets.

In ancient times, there was a way to target enemy prisoners, which was to cut off their thumbs so that they could no longer fight with cold weapons.

These people who lose their thumbs will also be eliminated from society and eventually become homeless, starving to death or freezing to death on the streets.

Although such a thing is unlikely to happen in modern society, losing a thumb means that many of an officer's military skills have become ineffective.

He didn't want to say anything now, he just wanted to kill the bastard in front of him with his eyes.

The director-general didn't care at all when facing the officer's vicious eyes. He had seen many vicious criminals.

During his tenure, he also handled some major cases of the century that shocked the world. For example, he personally participated in the investigation, arrest, and trial of a highway serial murder case.

After a heavy truck driver encountered a series of misfortunes in a short period of time, he decided to take revenge on society. He killed about 170 people in total, although in the end only the remains of more than 120 people were found.

The way the driver looked at me when he was arrested was much scarier than the officer's.

The room was very quiet, and the director-general did not speak. Although he is currently in an administrative position, he also has rich experience in grassroots work.

In the federation, the FBI is basically responsible for the detection and arrest of serious criminal crimes, although the federal police department has been developing an internal criminal investigation team and a serious crime team in recent years.

But in fact, some big cases ended up in the hands of the FBI.

He knew very well that at this time, the officer must realize that he was not the one in control of the overall situation, otherwise the subsequent negotiations and confrontation would be very passive.

Five minutes passed, and another body was thrown down from the building. The chief took a dagger and cut off the thumb of the officer's left hand.

He is ready!

Just when the director-general picked up the dagger, he had already gritted his teeth, but the moment the knife cut into the flesh, he couldn't help but cry out in pain!

The chief took back the dagger and asked someone to stop the officer's bleeding and bandage the wound.

He took a sip of the coffee and said, "Don't let me look down on you, let me see your determination."

The ridicule on his lips made the officer really doubt whether the on-site commander had an antisocial personality. How could he act more like a terrorist than himself?

The officer is not afraid of death. Since he is willing to participate in this operation, it means that he is ready to die anytime and anywhere.

But the problem now is that he has not yet played his role, has not let some people get the fate they deserve, and has not completed his repayment.

Just die like this...

Not worth it.

Five minutes later, another finger fell to the ground, this time the index finger of his right hand.

Even after experiencing it twice, he still cried out in pain.

He didn't want to shout, he wanted to be tough, but his body, his instinct, ignored his reason at all, bypassing his thoughts and acting directly on his body!

The weather was over ten degrees Celsius, with sweat all over his body and strands of hair sticking to his head. He licked his slightly dry lips and took the initiative to speak.

"What do you want to know?"

The director-general withdrew his attention from the novel in his hand and looked at the officer with a somewhat contemptuous look. This annoyed the officer and at the same time gave him some new understanding of the guy in front of him.

This is a lunatic!

He wouldn't argue with a psycho.

"I thought you could hold on longer." The director-general lit a cigarette. "What are your names, the army you belong to, and who is instigating you behind the scenes?"

After a brief silence, the officer named some of the people and the military they once belonged to, but on the issue of those behind the scenes, he insisted that no one instigated them.

"We just want to seek justice and an explanation from the federal government and society."

He was slightly excited, which was actually one of the motivations for their actions.

These people, their children, brothers, and relatives have all become victims of an era due to the federal government's "inaction" in certain aspects.

In their opinion, these people do not need to die. The federal government must have enough funds to save them, but the federal government did not lend a helping hand when they needed it.

Those soldiers who responded to the government's call to leave their families and the Union to fight outside for the glory of their country were abandoned when their motherland needed them most.

The dead are dead, but certainly not at rest.

And these people who are alive rely on the power of hatred to survive.

Now, it's time for revenge.

The director-general did not continue to force a confession. He sorted out what the guy said, turned around and went to the next room, made a phone call to the Presidential Palace and explained the situation.

After receiving the phone call, Connor asked the Ministry of National Defense to immediately pull out the information files of these people, and at the same time asked the Director-General to find a way to suspend the "killings" in Congress.

Although the reporters were driven far away, someone was still dropped every five minutes. They did not report directly, but they also let people know what was happening now.

This puts a lot of pressure on the federal government. After all, someone dies every five minutes. People will only blame the incompetence of the federal government for their dissatisfaction with the on-site handling!

Just like the director-general thought!

In fact, this cannot be said to be the "incompetence" of the people. They do not know who the on-site commander is, what his name is, and what he looks like. Therefore, their dissatisfaction with the on-site handling cannot be accurately targeted to a specific person. .

On the contrary, the concept of "federal government" is universal at all times, and the presidential office and Congress are the "representatives" of the federal government.

With Congress "temporarily offline", people's dissatisfaction with the federal government has accumulated into dissatisfaction with the presidential palace!

Fortunately, these things happened at this time, not last year, otherwise it would be a question whether Connor could be re-elected smoothly.

Connor hesitated when he learned that the attackers needed someone to deliver their message to the outside world.

"I'm not sure whether I should do this. If more people know about some of the problems..."

"It may cause a certain level of loss of control, and we don't know what they want."

He hoped that everyone could give him some suggestions. Some suggested arranging reporters to go there, while others suggested not to send reporters there and just attack directly.

But considering that there are still a large number of hostages inside, including members of Congress, this storm plan is obviously impossible to be adopted.

After a short discussion, they decided to let reporters in.

Lynch subsequently took the job, and Blackstone Television is now one of the largest and most-watched television stations in the Commonwealth.

Backed by Blackstone Group and Lynch, the TV station has top-notch resources. Plus Lynch is willing to spend money on this important "mouthpiece". Blackstone TV's current scale is several times that of when it was first established. Even more than ten times!

Momo summoned the TV station's ace reporters as soon as she received the news. She originally thought that not many people were willing to go in, but she didn't expect that as soon as she said it, people rushed to sign up.

This also frustrated her idea of ​​going in in person. In fact, she and the reporters who signed up knew very well that they were all safe until the matter was completely over.

Because once they have a problem, the next group of people will not go in, so it is safer for the first group of people to go in than to go in later!
