To the citizens, this action was unacceptable.
People would think that Pang Long was not a good president, and did not deserve the people’s trust.
In addition, Wei Du had been fanning the flames and stirring up nationalistic intent among the people. No matter how many supporters Pang Long had, no matter how powerful his army was, could he afford to kill all the citizens who were up against him?
Therefore, the situation that Dan Qi told her afterward was similar to Nuannuan’s guess.
In just two days, a small matter had already developed into a nationwide protest march. On the third day, the army suddenly moved out to suppress the situation, killing and injuring many people. The resentment of the people instantly reached its peak. Countless citizens ran to the presidential residence and started smashing things or vandalizing the place. The army stationed outside could barely withstand the attack.
“This Wei du is a ruthless character!”
After hearing Dan Qi’s words, Nangong Nuannuan lamented.
“Pang Long is so smart. Why would he choose to kill protestors at such a critical time? As the saying goes, the law doesn’t punish the masses. Making this incident an example for the people is not viable at this moment. On the contrary, it would become a death warrant for Pang Long’s political career. He can’t be this stupid. The only person who has the motive to order the soldiers and police to kill is probably Wei Du.”
Dam Qi nodded. “That’s right, it is Wei Du. Wei Du bribed one of Pang Long’s trusted officers, Nass. All the citizens know that Nass is under Pang Long. When Nass killed the protestors in a fit of rage, it prompted the citizens to direct their anger onto Pang Long. Now, the entire Naboo is shouting for Pang Long to step down.”
Nuannuan read the news on the Internet and said, “The people are always the easiest to incite. The slightest distraction will lead them astray with someone with ulterior motives pulling the strings. They think that they are the emissaries of justice and want to punish unjust acts. They don’t understand anything and are always firing cannons with half a barrel. They think that they’re doing this as a favor for everyone else and think of themselves as the embodiment of justice, but in reality, they’re just puppets being used as weapons.
“They should think about it long and hard. During Pang Long’s tenure, the overall economic strength of Naboo is many times stronger than before. Instead of living a good life, they insist on organizing a riot. The country is now in chaos, and the political situation is in chaos. In the future, they won’t have the power to make any decisions anymore. As the saying goes, when the gods fight, the mortals suffer. They’re adding fuel to the fire for incidents that everyone else avoids like the plague.”
“I know right!” Dan Qi nodded. “Then, Big Sis, should we help Bro-in-law or not?”
Nuannuan shook her head. “Nope. No matter how chaotic Naboo’s political situation is, they won’t dare to make a move against Camino. Moreover, Wei Du is about to take over, so he’ll need the support of the surrounding countries. If he were to obtain Camino’s support, he would become legitimate no matter how illegitimate he started off as.”
Dan Qi nodded. “That’s true.”
“However, you found out that Se Ni and Nass betrayed their own people for Wei Du. Could it be that you hacked them all for the sake of gossip?”
Dan Qi chuckled. “This is me, being curious.”
Nuannuan, “…”
Fine.
Only a strange stay-at-home boy like Danqi could do such a thing.
To pry into the gossip, he could probably hack all the way into Wei Du’s security system and dissect this stupid incident into clear parts.
That was why Dan Qi was the second most powerful mercenary on the murder leaderboard at such a young age. It was just that this ability of his was too illegal. If anyone were to go against him, he would be able to strip them down to their underwear. This kind of person lived in this world to cause trouble for others..
