Chapter 370

Throwing a pebble into a large lake caused some ripples, but eventually the Federation died down. If you lift a boulder and smash it in, there will be waves, and it will take some time to calm down... If you use the analogy of what happened in Shanxi City, it is an adult giant dragon that is tired from flying and plunges into the big lake. , twisting the body at will, it is a heaven overflowing giant wave. And this is not the end. After playing for a while, the giant dragon found that the environment here is good, so he simply decided to settle down here... The city is full of wind and rain, and the impact is endless!A few days have passed and the continuous rain has stopped. But the sky above Shanxi City still seemed to be shrouded in a layer of bleak and gloomy clouds, and people who traveled occasionally looked at each other, but they could always find a familiar look of panic on each other's faces.
The statue of Goddess has been erected in the city for hundreds of years. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the people in this city, whether noble or commoner, all grew up watching the statue of Goddess.
They never imagined that Goddess would fall one day, and they fell so decisively that it was delusional to piece together.
Therefore, whether it is subjective or bystander, there is no way to prevent a saying that keeps circulating in the city, that is, the mountain stream Goddess is angry and will no longer bless the city.
This statement sounds very reliable, so people are even more panicked... Compared with the ordinary person in Shanxi City, the believers of the Light God Temple are even more angry and sad.
Don't forget that this mountain stream Goddess also has a layer of identity, that is, the first generation of Saintess of Light God Temple. Now that the statue has collapsed, it is no exaggeration to say that the pillar of faith in the hearts of the believers also collapsed instantly.
The faith of believers is loyal and fanatical, even more how there is a group of fanatics. So I don't know when, or which believer made the move first, but someone committed a blatant suicide in front of the ruins of the statue.
The action soon set off a chain reaction, first a few people, then a dozen people... simultaneously following the move.
There are many reasons, some say it is to leave with Saintess, some say it is to quell Goddess' anger, etc., and so on. Fortunately, the official response of Shanxi City this time was very quick. Before the situation expanded, the guard cavalry of battallion battallion came to station here, and blocked all intersections to prevent everyone from entering and leaving the city square.
Afterwards, Bishop, a church in the city, also quickly stood up and vigorously promoted the teachings of the Light God Temple, that is, true believers are not allowed to commit suicide. With such a two-pronged approach, it was not easy to cover up this trend of suicide.
At the same time, follow-up on this disaster is also being followed up. First, there were many passers-by present who were convinced that the statue of Goddess had been vandalized. In this way, it is very important to catch these two people.
Under such a situation, the officials of Shanxi City once again showed a rare high efficiency. In the afternoon, sketches and portraits were posted all over the city, and in order to guard against the unexpected, they were also sent to neighboring cities one after another, asking for the culprit.
Under the eyes of the public, the faces of the two murderers were meticulously restored. One is a middle-aged man with an indifferent face, and the other is a charming and charming beautiful woman.
It is a pity that, although many people with similar faces were arrested, they were quickly excluded. The next few days passed, and the real culprit was still nowhere to be found.
In fact, if they keep looking for this picture, it is impossible to have results. middle-aged man That is just the image of Tang En Camouflage, as long as the props are taken off, who can imagine this public face, the youth who is harmless to humans and animals? As for Eunice, it's even more nonsense. Maybe they can determine Eunice's identity and name, but it is undoubtedly delusional to find someone. You must know that she has put on the most beautiful dress, and then was directly melted by the dark fog that erupted from herself at the end... How to find this? I can't let Light God say hello to the devil, and then bring people up... Probably seeing that this matter has no effect, Shanxicheng officials have made another move, that is, let the scapegoat - the police hall appear, to divert the masses sight.
In fact, it is a bit inappropriate to say that it is a scapegoat. Because the National Police Agency does have an inescapable responsibility, it is the people's will to judge them.
First of all, the dozen or so cavalrymen who were guarding the scene at the time and were finally alive. Needless to say, the charges of ineffective guards, greed for life and fear of death were directly detained. Immediately, the formal city court circled around, and then went directly to death row, waiting for the hanging post to be sent to the public on Sunday.
Then came the top two agencies, Chief of Police Demps and Chief of Cavalry, who were accused of lax supervision and failing to arrive at the scene in time for the incident. But they did have reason to argue, and that is to put out fifteen Bounty Hunter corpses.
If there are more than a dozen corpses as usual, Demps and the cavalry commander would have to be in the limelight and win awards and honors. But now, in order to suppress the anger of the citizens, the commander of the cavalry was dismissed and imprisoned. If nothing else happened, he could only spend the rest of his life in an unknown noble mine.
As for Demps, dismissal was a must. He also knew that he had been hurt badly by Tang En, and what was the credit to him was just to disengage himself and most of the guard cavalry. However, he naturally did not dare to say this. He insisted that he had noticed the arrival of the Bounty Hunter, and for the sake of the safety of the city, he mobilized cavalry to encircle and suppress it. It was also fortunate that he had a good relationship with the nobles in the city, and he moved around and pulled up layers of protection in time. The end result is to spend a year or two in jail as a punishment for negligence. This is undoubtedly a lot better than those cavalry commanders who have been working as coolies for the rest of their lives.
The trial of quick sword cuts through tangled hemp made the commoners of Shanxi City a little vent their anger, and also let the great characters who were operating in the dark slowly relax. If it's just ordinary citizens protesting, they won't care, but this matter involves the Light God Temple, so it can't be ignored.
Zheng Huan, who was tried by the court in the city here, and Light God Temple over there cooperated very well to make countermeasures.
First of all, Light God Temple will use the donations of believers to rebuild the Goddess statue, and promise to invite the Holy City great character to come to bless and pray.
Although it is said that no matter how new this statue is, it will not be the same as before, but through these things, it can indeed give people a little sustenance in their hearts.
Secondly, as for the two daring guys, Bishop promised that Light God Temple Holy City would send a special team to track down the real culprit.
No one would doubt the strength of Light God Temple. Now that they have spoken up, the people will just wait for the day when those two damned guys are caught.
Shanxicheng's official public relations for this crisis is quite good, and all actions seem to be orderly. Of course, the influence of this matter is far from over, and it can even be said that within a few generations, it is absolutely impossible and completely over.
At this time, Tang En, who had collected thousands of curses in one body, just opened his eyes and woke up hazy...
