"What are the demands of the people outside?"
In the office, the chief of the Royal City Police Department had a solemn expression.
It was unknown where these natives had learned the Federation's demonstration, and they had even evolved this method.
In the Federation, if people were to demonstrate, they would definitely have the support of capital behind them.
The reason was simple. The people who organized the demonstration had to provide each participant with some small gifts, which could be clothes with slogans printed on them, ball caps, or something else. At the same time, they would provide two meals of fried chicken and beer, and some would even give some money.
The cost of organizing a demonstration of a thousand people was about 60,000 to 100,000 per day. If the scale was larger, it would be impossible to organize without support.
This sounded more fantastical than the most fantastical novel, because the logic was that the capitalists would pay to support the workers and the lower class to demonstrate against the capitalists.
But that was how it was. In the Federation where "money is the truth," there was no way to organize a large-scale demonstration without money.
But here, these people were all spontaneous. They were more active and self-aware than those who were waiting to eat fried chicken and drink beer. Everyone was shouting and waving their arms, and the flames of anger in their eyes were about to ignite the whole world!
Even though there was a long distance between them, the chief of the Police Department still felt a wave of fear.
"They want us to punish the Federation, and they want the Federation to plead guilty and deal with him according to the law."
The chief of the Armed Police Department was a little surprised. "Is it that simple?"
"Yes, it's that simple."
The chief of the Armed Police Department was silent for a moment. The demands of the people outside were not excessive at all. It was just that the way they presented themselves was a little scary.
Those who did not know would think that these people were going to attack the Armed Police Department!
He then asked, "How's the interrogation going?"
"It's in the middle of the interrogation..."
In the interrogation room, a Federation person sat on a chair. His face was bruised, his pants were wet, and the room was filled with a foul smell.
Police officers with no criminal record often referred to those who did not accept bribes, but not accepting bribes did not mean that they would "abide by the law."
Michael, for example, was completely "without criminal record," but his style of handling cases was too extreme and too violent.
There were many people in the Federation law enforcement agencies who were as violent as him. They were engaged in high-risk work and were often tense. They could not be expected to chat gently with suspects.
"Let me ask again, what is this …"
In fact, they had figured out a lot of things, but there were still some things they weren't too sure about. For example, when they were searching this person's residence, they found some small bags. There were some small black and brown dots inside, and they smelled very special.
Recently, he had learned from the Federation's Anti-Smuggling Team that some new contraband items were spreading rapidly, such as some poisonous mushrooms, leaves, and even the poison glands of some poisonous animals.
These things all had the same characteristic, which was hallucinogenic.
They wouldn't kill people, but they would make people hallucinate. In this party, the reason why the girls were tortured to death was because they had hallucinated when they were in the incense.
They thought of themselves as gods and the girls as demons. Then, they used all kinds of methods to torture and humiliate them, and finally killed them.
The contents of this small bag might be a brand new hallucinogenic substance.
The guy who had lost control of his bowels looked at the small bag, his facial muscles twitching from time to time. "That's … a bag of seeds."
"What's its use?"
"The seeds of tobacco leaves …"
Shi Jincheng and Colorful must have never thought that after their commission changed hands several times, it would be delivered to a group of people who didn't do business through the proper channels.
Of course, this was understandable. After all, they couldn't bring these things out through the proper channels.
Lynch wouldn't allow them to do so, and the Joint Development Company wouldn't allow them to bring these things out of the country. The only way was to find people to collect these tobacco leaves on a large scale.
In order to further attack the traditional ruling class of Nagaril, the Joint Development Company and the Federation government decided to hold a public trial in the square in front of the royal palace.
The whole process of the case had been investigated clearly. Even if it couldn't be said to be intentional killing of these girls, it was still considered manslaughter, and the method was particularly cruel and outrageous.
After a morning of trial, except for the person who turned himself in and exposed all of this, everyone else was sentenced to death.
This was a violent blow to Nagaril's society!
Before this, no one in the ruling class had ever been sentenced for a crime, let alone such a serious punishment as the death penalty.
No matter what they did, as long as they paid a little money to repent to the gods, they could be exempted from punishment.
Many people died tragically under the tyranny of the ruling class, but today, the good days of the ruling class were over!
In order to end the current situation in Nagaril as soon as possible, the trial ended in the morning, and the death penalty was carried out in the afternoon.
Similarly, in the square outside the palace, the ruling class behaved even more feebly than the lower class. They couldn't even stand up. Everyone was crying and begging for help from others, hoping that they would be spared.
But it was all too late. With the action of the executioner, the heads that rolled on the ground were lifted up high with a wooden pole and passed among the crowd.
Including the Federation man, his head was also lifted up on a wooden pole!
The Federation government didn't protect the Federation man, and really treated him like everyone else. This made the Nagaril people have a better impression of the Federation people and the Federation government.
The social order was quickly restored, and people loved their current life. There was no oppression between classes, no harm from the top, and people were almost equal.
As long as they were willing to work, they could earn money. Was there a better era than this?
No, there was none!
The numbness of the people had long disappeared, and only yearning for the future was left. This was a sad era because it was facing the invasion of some foreigners.
But this was also the best era for Nagaril. There was no need for gunfire and war, and society was on the road of change and development.
There wasn't much to do in the following days, and Lynch took a rare break.
Many things could quickly get back on track after the most difficult initial stage.
Catherine had returned to the school to submit her internship report, and the entire Kuriland State University was proud of her. She was the "flower of the common people", and had completed her internship in the presidential palace.
Even if there were one or two people who could talk to her, she had a better chance of stepping into the upper class than all the teachers and students in the school.
Not to mention that she had Lynch behind her. Catherine's story was like a fairy tale, making everyone envious.
Then Catherine began to participate in various women's rights activities in the Federation. Her ideas were very clear-cut – "Let more girls have the right to go to school" and "Education reform is imperative"!
It sounded incredible. Were there girls in the Federation who didn't go to school?
In fact, it was true. Even now, the Federation had popularized primary education and some secondary education, but there were still many girls who didn't have the opportunity to go to school. For example, some families with too many children.
Those girls would start to help their families earn money early to reduce the burden of the family, and when they grew up, they would be married off early.
This phenomenon was common, especially in the north and west of the Federation, where the economy wasn't developed enough, so this phenomenon was common.
People paid a lot of attention to Catherine, and so did the media. She completed her internship in the presidential palace. Many people guessed that her next step would be to enter politics, but no one knew where she would step into politics.
The acquisition of Moment by Moment was also over. Lucky and Colorful were investigated by the Food Safety Bureau of the Federation, and their stock prices plummeted. They had to sell their shares to Lynch and Mr. Vaudric to find a way to restore their image.
Their names even appeared on the front page of the Federation Times, but this was definitely not a good thing. They played a negative role.
Everything was fine in Najalil, the Federation, Amelia, and even Gevra weren't as active as before. They seemed to be preparing for something.
In mid-August, Congress established a new committee called the "Education Reform Committee".
This seemed to be an omen, a piece of news that attracted the interest of the people and even the media. This also made many people realize that maybe this time, the Federation government really wanted to solve some problems, such as the "three major diseases" of the Federation.
This news was very exciting, and there were also some rumors that kept spreading, stimulating people. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the education reform as soon as possible. They had already acquired the ability to do so, but because they couldn't afford it, they were rejected by the universities.
On the last weekend of August, Lynch was sitting on a deck chair by the pool, enjoying the quiet time.
He was used to being busy, and he could also enjoy the quiet. All of this made no difference to him.
The maid walked to his side and placed an iced drink on the table. She was wearing a pair of white stockings today, but this was not the same as the pantyhose in the past. It didn't reach her head, but only reached her knees. There was also a circle of lace, and the stockings themselves were somewhat transparent.
"Have you been exercising recently?"
Lynch asked curiously. The maid's legs were slightly thinner than before, but it didn't just give the feeling of being thin.
They were still full, but the size was slightly smaller.
He reached out and touched them. "They feel good to the touch. Are these the latest stockings on the market?"
Lynch asked the obvious. The maid changed her standing position slightly so that Lynch could better admire her stockings. "Yes, Mr. Lynch."
Lynch looked at her. "My experience tells me that you have something to tell me."
"I want to take a day off. My boyfriend is visiting me from out of town …" Her face became even redder.
"Boyfriend?"
Lynch raised his eyebrows. "Of course you can. Even God can't stop people from falling in love, let alone me!"
