Blackstone Code

"They're messing with us!"

At the cabinet meeting, Mr. Trueman did not hesitate to slap the newspaper on the table hard, making a snapping sound.

The front page headline in the newspaper was the photo taken by the official Scottish photographer a week ago. It was sent to major federal media outlets and made the front page headline this morning.

There is no doubt that those people with sacks covering their heads are definitely not the people they are looking for, and these barbaric images have not been processed in any way. Of course, the federal media has slightly processed them to make them not look too bloody. .

What Sugar's liaison officer didn't expect was that not only did this fail to calm the anger of the federal people, but it actually caused more tsunami of public opinion to brew.

Mr. Trueman looked at each of the "carefully selected" cabinet members with a deep look on his face, his eyes full of ruthlessness, "They not only deceived us and perfunctory us, but they also demonstrated to us!"

"Looking at these pictures, I don't feel any shame from this photo. They are not admitting their mistakes, but they are fighting against us in this way!"

A newly appointed cabinet member took a quick glance at the president, and then whispered, "Mr. Trueman, is your statement too exaggerated..."

"They have already killed those gangsters, which means they have bowed their heads. There is no need for us to continue to force them!"

The President has not expressed his position and seems to be deep in thought, which of course he is.

In fact, he is not a radical in the strict sense. If he were, he should now be discussing whether he can send troops to attack this country.

All old politicians of his age are actually supporters of conservatism, but if he wants to win the election, he has to pretend to be a radical.

He is considering whether this matter is going to end here. He doesn't really want to use force as soon as he takes office. This is not just radical, it is crazy!

What would Congress think, what would the governors think, what would the military think, and what would the people think?

The silence in the room made him suddenly realize that people might be waiting for his decision. He suddenly came back to his senses. The secretary pushed over the meeting contents that he had just recorded, and he took a look.

"Continue to maintain a tough attitude, but do not take specific actions. I have just taken office, and now many places are replacing old and new officials. This is not a suitable time to make big moves."

Mr. Trueman had already guessed this result. He knew the president better than anyone else. He knew that he was an old man who appeared radical but was actually very conservative.

He reminded softly, "The people will not agree, Mr. President."

"people?"

Mr. President laughed loudly, "When has the decision of the Presidential Palace required the approval of the people?" He tilted his head slightly and continued with a smile, "I just made a joke, I will consider this matter carefully. .”

"I know a very wise saying, 'Don't push others, and don't push yourself,' and that's the attitude we should have."

Mr. Trueman made no further request, and sat back.

To be honest, Mr. President was a little disappointed when he came to power. He was a little weak when he should be tough.

The Federation's defeat in the international community by Gaevra has greatly improved the Federation's international status, which can be seen from the deepening cooperation between other countries and the Federation.

At this time, a weak country provoked the federation, but the federation did not take any countermeasures. It only made people think that maybe it was just as the Gefra people said, that the naval battle was just an accident.

On the frontal battlefield, the Federals were no match for the Gefras.

In fact, we don't really need to send troops now. As long as we show an attitude, such as the intention to seek justice for the injured citizens, and let the warships go around twice, that's enough.

But he is not willing to give me anything, he just wants stability, which is so disappointing.

Of course, this is understandable. After Mr. President took office, all the campaign pressure disappeared. He can completely restore his original character and does not need to play a strange self.

There were some things that were hard to say at this time. He planned to talk to Mr. President in private.

As Mr. Trueman said, this photo has been interpreted in many ways, but none of them is a good one.

One of the more popular interpretations in society is "next".

"If you pay attention to the overall composition of this photo, you will find that there is actually a passage between the 'viewing' position from the outside and the execution platform."

"There is nothing on this passage, because it is a passage that leads to death, and only people who are waiting to die go here."

"People around me are looking at 'me', which is also a surreal expression. In the eyes of these people, 'me' is the next person to be chopped off."

"So many people say that looking at this photo for a long time makes people feel uncomfortable and uneasy, just because of its composition."

"It does not allow us to look at the entire incident from an objective perspective. It treats us as the next ones to be executed. There is no doubt that they are using this photo to fight against our demands and our government."

"Have you noticed the blood on the ground? They mean to tell us that they are not afraid of bloodshed, and if we take further actions, we will bleed there."

"There are also those seemingly innocent children who are chasing people's heads. Through the whole picture, people can already imagine that my head is being kicked around by these children as a trophy..."

"I don't think there is anything wrong with our request. Let them arrest those murderers and receive fair trials and executions. This is just the most basic request. I don't think our request is excessive."

"But such a reasonable request is treated so brutally and cruelly by these people. Suger is definitely the most incomprehensible of all the countries I know..."

"The most important thing is that these people have sacks on their heads, so we have no way of knowing that they are the real murderers."

"Maybe this is just a scapegoat they found from somewhere. The real murderers have not been tried by the law. They are just doing this to fool us!"

"I want to tell the officials in Suge here that I don't want this kind of perfunctory, I just want the truth and the law!"

The invited commentator on the TV constantly used his professional knowledge to carefully interpret the composition and the intention of the composition. Every viewer felt that what they said made sense.

The most important thing is that no one knows who was beheaded, so their identities cannot be verified.

The ups and downs of public opinion once again erupted with terrible power. Many people went to the place where the Scottish delegation lived to demonstrate. In the whole series of events, people were too emotional, but this is what some people need.

Two days later, Lynch met the team members who had returned from a mission in Suge at the headquarters of Blackstone Security, and also saw the girl.

At this time, he was reviewing the photos and information. Each person had their specific name, age, and what they probably did.

As long as you have money, you can buy anything in the world. If you can't buy it, it just means you don't have enough money.

People with Holes in Their Heads flipped through to the end, which were some photos of abused girls, and this one.

Lynch looked at the photo on the last page, then looked up at the girl standing aside.

He quickly withdrew his gaze and looked at the team members.

"You didn't encounter any danger, did you?" He closed the document and the action report.

Blackstone Security is a professional military organization. After every military operation, a process report must be written, which will roughly describe the entire operation process, as well as the judgment of a firefight.

The captain shook his head, "We didn't encounter any resistance."

In other words, this is a small-scale massacre...well, that's not the right word, it's a baptism of justice!

Lynch nodded, "It's a beautiful battle. Each of you has two weeks of vacation, and the mission rewards will be credited to your accounts before the bank closes this afternoon. Do you have any questions?"

The captain shook his head. He thought that Lynch would ask why he brought the girl back, but he didn't ask. It was obvious that Lynch had guessed it.

"Then let's dismiss. I hope you will eat less high-calorie foods during the holidays. I have heard the colonel complain that every time you are given a holiday, you will gain a few to more than ten pounds..."

The captain and the team members were laughing and joking but did not agree. In fact, eating is also a way to relieve stress.

They quickly said goodbye to Lynch and left the room.

Lynch looked at the girl, "Can you take off your clothes?"

The girl bit her lip, lowered her head and began to take off her clothes.

It's just February and the weather is still a bit cold. Although there is heating in the office, people will not wear less clothes because of this.

The girl took off her coat and put it somewhere. Lynch smiled very gentlemanly and stretched out his arm, "You can keep it for me first."

The girl knew that this was a great person. She did not resist and could not resist. She gave the coat to Lynch.

"continue……"

Soon, at Lynch's request, the girl stood in front of him wearing only her underwear.

The decoration here is full of civilized atmosphere, and the big man in clothes and leather shoes in front of her makes her feel a little embarrassed.

She tried her best to cover her body by holding her arms, but it was obvious that Lynch was not satisfied here.

"Take off your underwear too..."

The girl hesitated for a while, but finally decided to do it, because the captain told her that Mr. Lynch had the final say whether she could stay in the Federation.

When everything was displayed in front of Lynch, there was some smile on Lynch's face.

What he was looking at was not the girl or her body, but the traces of destruction created on the painting.

Burns from cigarette butts, cuts, blood stains deep into the flesh that have not yet healed, and some torn wounds.

The way to make an angry society even angrier is to give their anger a moral high ground!

Simply perfect!
