Chapter 241 Gunner
Seeing the blood all over the ground and the Earth Alliance official kneeling on the ground pleading, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.
Didn't we agree not to cause trouble? Why are they trying to kill people right off the bat?
Some former PDC officials, however, considered things more deeply.
Although Lin Xuan was arrogant in the past, he would never have killed Earth Alliance officials so readily as he does now. Now, the entire Earth Alliance is like pigs and dogs in his eyes, at his mercy.
These changes are likely related to the years he disappeared.
“I… I’ve embezzled 152.41 yuan over the years by abusing my position. Before I joined the local government, in order to get into the system, I treated the section chief to a meal. There were 13 dishes in total, and the cost was 7204 yuan…”
The local official who had lost an arm seemed genuinely frightened, muttering incessantly, even revealing that he had stolen a penny's worth of snacks from a store when he was in elementary school.
But judging from Lin Xuan's still unpleasant expression, it was clear that these were not the answers he wanted.
"Mr. Lin Xuan, I really don't know anything else!"
The man burst into tears. He had lived most of his life and had never had to worry about food or clothing since childhood. He had never seen such a terrifying scene.
Although I had heard that Lin Xuan was terrifying, the terror she had caused was mostly on a human level, and she rarely attacked individuals.
But things are different now. Since Lin Xuan's return, she seems to have become a completely different person. Whether people know her or not, they now seem somewhat unfamiliar with her.
Seeing that the man couldn't offer any useful information, Lin Xuan had no choice but to extend a finger and gently stroke the man's neck.
In an instant, the man's head was severed from his body amidst a look of utter terror!
"hiss!"
Seeing such a bloody scene, all the officials present couldn't help but gasp in horror.
Some people wanted to scream, but looking at Lin Xuan in front of them, they swallowed the scream that was about to come out.
After all, who knows if you'll be the next one targeted?
Lin Xuan then pointed to the next person.
"You, continue."
Upon hearing this, the man's face turned deathly pale, and he stammered for a long time without being able to utter a single word.
"Pfft!"
Lin Xuan lost her patience this time, and with a flick of her wrist, she sent out a nano-filament that sliced through the blade.
"next."
After killing two people, even the five ministers became a little nervous and couldn't help but exchange glances.
"What exactly is Lin Xuan trying to do? Why is she trying to kill someone right from the start?"
Demonstration?
Or is it a warning?
They don't seem quite right.
And most importantly, the two people Lin Xuan just killed had indeed committed a lot of crimes and were their "gunmen".
The so-called "gunmen" are those who take the blame for high-ranking officials.
After all, the Earth Federation is now the only dominant power, and it has almost completely controlled the administrative power of the entire human race. Although the Trisolarans are eyeing it covetously, the internal problems are even more serious, so corruption is almost commonplace.
At this point, in order to avoid being implicated, they would have gunmen do things for them.
These gunmen usually hold high-ranking official positions but have little real power, all so that when they are dealt with, they can give an explanation to the lower classes.
Lin Xuan came up and, without saying a word, directly dealt with their two gunmen, giving the officials present the impression that he had come specifically to warn them.
"If it's just a simple warning, then there's nothing to worry about. It's just a few gunmen dying. As long as you don't fall from power, you can cultivate these kinds of people in the future."
