Chapter 72 Meeting(1/2)
The protesters and policemen who were bound by [Gravity Lock] became sluggish under the pressure of gravity, and their expressions and movements revealed varying degrees of struggle and helplessness.
The moment Xia Xiu put his hat back on, the scene seemed to be still for a moment.
As soon as the Federal Reserve Bank policemen saw Xia Xiu, they immediately realized that any resistance was futile. Their expressions changed from panic to resignation. They gave up resisting the [Gravity Lock] coming from every joint on their bodies and held their heads in their hands.
Lying on the ground.
After doing this, they were surprised to find that the various gravitational pressures on their bodies had slowed down, so many policemen began to lie flat on the ground with their heads in their hands.
The scene became a little funny for a while. The public official wearing a Reserve Bank police uniform was lying on the ground like a prisoner with his head in his hands, as if giving up resistance. This contrast caused the police captain who was watching on the side.
Kosik Bayev felt a sense of absurdity.
Kosik turned his head and looked at his subordinates, and then at Xia Xiu who was standing aside, but hesitated to speak.
Meanwhile, the reaction from protesters has been more mixed.
The first and second types of patients with strange hooffoot disease have less severe deformities and their resistance is not violent. They look at everything happening in front of them in horror and confusion, as if they have not fully understood the sudden changes.
.
Their facial expressions reveal fear of the unknown and a sense of powerlessness about the situation.
However, patients in the third and fourth categories showed more intense emotions.
Especially the patient who led the charge before, his lower body completely transformed into a horse's hoof. This change gave him extraordinary strength.
Even under the influence of the gravity lock, he still tried to resist. Veins were beating on his forehead, and the expression on his face was distorted, looking extremely painful and angry.
Under Xia Xiu's calm gaze, the situation of the protester who was still resisting tenaciously became particularly prominent.
"Do you recognize that person?" Xia Xiu looked at the resisters and asked Kosik, who was a little reserved.
"I recognize him." The police captain looked at the other person, then sighed and continued: "His name is Mikhail Garcia, one of the leaders of the Chenma Alliance."
Kosik then explained the so-called Morning Horse Alliance.
"The Chenma Alliance is a diverse leadership organization composed of infected people and supporters, committed to protecting and enhancing the status and rights of all 'pseudo people' in society. The organization opposes any form of exploitation and discrimination, and advocates fairness, equality and
Treat all infected people with dignity."
"The infected organization..."
Xia Xiu glanced at Mikhail, who was still resisting. The opponent's horse's hooves trampled on the ground and he was struggling crazily.
The other party left a very deep impression on him. However, if the other party continues to resist at this moment, it will inevitably cause the other party's horse skeleton to fracture. The horse's skeleton and muscle system are designed to run quickly. Once the leg is fractured, the entire weight distribution and power will be affected.
The mechanism will be destroyed.
Xia Xiu would not cause too much damage to the people present. With a thought, [Sisyphus] understood the master's intention, raised his hand slightly, and raised his palm slightly towards the protesters.
"Gravity reversal——"
At that moment, the gravity in space suddenly changed dramatically.
[Gravity Lock] is no longer an oppressive force, but has become a buoyant force that makes people weightless.
The surrounding air seemed to be sucked out, and the heavy burden that had been pressing on the protesters was instantly lifted. The protesters, who had been nearly paralyzed under the squeeze of gravity, suddenly felt that their bodies were light and airy, as if they were being lifted up by the water. His limbs
Swinging feebly, the whole person began to float involuntarily.
This sudden change made his movements look very funny, like a puppet floating in the air, controlled by invisible forces.
At the scene of the conflict, the air was still filled with tension and uncertainty.
Xia Xiu stood in the center of the scene, his eyes scanning the protesters still floating in the air and the police officers scattered in all directions.
Then, he turned to Kosik and ordered with unquestionable authority in his voice:
"My ability can still be maintained for half an hour. Within this half hour, the management personnel will come here to jointly enforce the law with you to deal with this conflict. Within this half hour, I hope to see the federal police and management
Bureau agents can effectively coordinate and avoid unnecessary conflicts. Our goal is to restore order and protect the safety of everyone, whether protesters or ordinary citizens."
As soon as he finished speaking, the air seemed to freeze, and the pressure of gravity eased slightly, but the tension of the scene did not diminish.
Kosik's expression quickly became solemn, and he instinctively retorted, "This protest is a matter within the Federation, and the Federation has its own corresponding laws and regulations..." Before he could finish his words, he was coldly interrupted by Xia Xiu.
"If laws and regulations are formulated appropriately for the local area, our administration is also qualified to participate. But don't forget, the administration is the foreign affairs director of the New Alliance's organizational council, and we are also one of the members of the Defense Planning Committee.
First, we have the power to handle matters such as force sanctions, supervision, dispute prevention, and defense cooperation between franchised organizations within our jurisdiction.”
Xia Xiu's words were like a cold sword, Kosik's face was as pale as paper, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, obviously being rendered speechless by Xia Xiu's blunt words.
At this moment, Kosik's facial expression seemed particularly complicated, the corners of his mouth were tightened, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
"But this is an internal matter of our Federation..."
He tried to argue, but his voice gradually became lower.
Xia Xiu did not allow him to continue and interrupted him bluntly, "Internal affairs?"
The fourth sword-holder in the Kingdom of Heaven smiled contemptuously, "When your internal affairs begin to affect public security, especially in situations involving many extraordinary individuals, it is no longer purely internal affairs. Our administration intervenes.
It is to ensure that the situation does not get out of control and at the same time to protect the basic rights and interests of everyone, which is also our responsibility."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A trace of anger and helplessness flashed in Kosik's eyes, but under the eyes of the fourth sword holder of the Xia Tian Kingdom that gradually became as cold as ice, he
Finally, he lowered his head and nodded silently.
He knew that any further dispute would only make his position more embarrassing.
When Xia Xiu saw this, his tone softened slightly.
"Thank you for your understanding, Captain Kosik. The administration's operators will arrive within ten minutes. I hope you can provide maximum cooperation."
Then, he stretched out his hand to fine-tune the brim of his hat to ensure that the hat sat upright. He slowly moved his eyes away from Kosik, looked around for a week again, and finally used his mind to call up the genealogy clock of [Adam].
He glanced at the time, then returned his gaze to Kosik.
"The beautiful scenery of the Federation delayed me a lot of time, and my meeting with the Prime Minister of the Economic Adjustment Committee was also delayed a lot of time."
Regarding Xia Xiu's accusation, Kosik could only bow and apologize.
"I'm very sorry, Sir Abraham."
Xia Xiu nodded and said expressionlessly: "I'll leave this to you. I hope you can handle this matter fairly with the management staff."
After saying that, he picked up the silver cane in his hand and left directly, heading towards the agreed location - the office of John K. Hanks, Prime Minister of the New Alliance Economic Adjustment Committee.
Kosik stood there, his eyes gradually disappearing as Xia Xiu's back disappeared from his sight, and he finally recovered from the almost invulnerable aura.
"Huh~"
He let out a breath, then subconsciously glanced at his hands, which were trembling uncontrollably.
*********
02:55pm
In a classically furnished room with full bookshelves, John K. Hanks is sitting behind a heavy oak desk, holding a carved retro telephone.
"Understood, just follow Director Abraham's suggestions. Yes, ensure that cooperation with the management personnel is conducted on an equal basis."
After giving this instruction, Hanks gently put down the phone, took a deep breath, gently massaged his forehead with his fingers, and frowned, looking quite stressed.
While he was immersed in deep thought, there was a knock on the office door.
Immediately afterwards, the secretary's voice came clearly from outside the door, with a hint of professional respect in his tone:
"President, the director of the administration has arrived and requests a formal meeting with you."
Hearing this, Hanska stood up from the chair, quickly straightened the tiny wrinkles on her suit, and then whispered instructions to the secretary outside the door:
"Please come in, Chief Abraham."
As soon as he finished speaking, the secretary outside the door immediately responded:
"Yes, President."
Soon after, the office door slowly opened, and a handsome young man with blond hair and golden eyes, wearing an exquisite top hat and holding a silver cane, walked into the room under the guidance of his secretary.
Afterwards, the secretary bowed respectfully to the two people present and left immediately, closing the door behind him.
Pa da~
The door closed, and Hanks took a few steps forward to greet the guest politely.
Xia Xiu stopped, politely took off his hat, and said lightly:
"Sorry, we encountered some minor troubles on the way and were delayed."
Although he was apologizing, his voice was calm and his words and eyes were unapologetic.
Of course Hanks knew what had just happened and had anticipated it. He responded:
"These accidents are due to oversight oversight by our Defense Planning Committee and should not have happened. The Planning Committee will ensure that there will be no similar incidents in the future. You have to believe that this is just an individual case within the federation and will not affect the New Alliance's
Order and our cooperation.”
"A case?"
The blond young man first repeated what Hanks said, and then he continued in a joking tone:
"I'm afraid this is not a huge number of cases."
