My Ability Pool is S Chapter 323: Riot

Pu Xueli’s residence was not far from the Administrative Building, just a few minutes’ walk.

Lu Bai turned back and glanced at the crowd gathered in the plaza, vaguely feeling that this rally was not that simple.

However, he had never seen such a protest activity after all, so he couldn’t confirm if his guess was correct, and thus said nothing more.

He thus brought his younger brother and younger sister and followed Pu Xueli to a two-story standalone small building.

It was not the kind of villa with a lawn and garden as imagined; overall, it was quite low-key.

Probably seeing Lu Bai’s doubt, Pu Xueli explained while pressing the password to open the door: “After all, only my wife and I live here; such a house is already sufficient.”

Hearing the movent from the entrance hall, Pu Xueli’s Wife ca out from the kitchen.

She was a woman around forty years old, but the crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes could not hide the delicacy of her brows and eyes; it was clear she had been a beauty in her youth.

She wiped her hands on her apron and warmly said: “You must be Lu Bai, right? No wonder old Pu has been ntioning you in my ear all this ti; indeed, you are a talented person.

Your younger brother and younger sister are also very cute. Co in and sit down quickly; treat it like your own ho. Dinner will be ready soon.”

With Pu Xueli’s Wife being so friendly, Lu Ziyi and Lu Qingyan, this pair of siblings, quickly dissipated their originally tense emotions, leaving only a bit of restraint from just arriving at soone else’s ho.

Lu Bai, on the other hand, felt no discomfort at all; he followed Pu Xueli to the sofa in the living room and sat down, naturally looking around at the furnishings in the living room.

“Principal Pu, how much would it cost to buy a house like this?”

Pu Xueli poured a few cups of tea and placed them on the coffee table. Hearing this question, he couldn’t help but smile: “In this location, it’s not a matter of money.”

He paused, then continued: “But given your current developnt montum, if you apply, the City Association might provide you with usage rights to an apartnt.”

Lu Bai had no dissatisfaction, just thoughtful.

“Even as an Official Death Fighter like , it’s just usage rights.”

No wonder Can Society could bewitch so many people to protest against the official side.

……

Ti ca to six-thirty in the afternoon; the Holographic Sky Screen at the top of the Shelter had already darkened, replaced by twinkling starlight.

The protesting crowd around Clock Tower Plaza not only did not gradually disperse, but grew larger and larger as ti passed.

Apart from the Can Society backbones and ambitious people mixed in, the vast majority truly believed they could express their determination in this way.

Most of the people at the rally hoped to attract more attention this way, to get the City Association to pay attention to this protest rally and make commitnts and changes.

However, the fact is that when the gathered crowd reaches this degree, the City Association side will only dispatch Ard Forces to enter and avoid too much trouble.

This is not surprising.

From the perspective of psychology and sociology, the herd ntality originates from humanity’s conformity psychology, sense of belonging needs, and social identity; the phenonon of people gathering more and more is indeed understandable.

But the problem is that group behavior under herd ntality will uncontrollably have impulsive, volatile, and other emotional characteristics.

If not careful, a legal rally activity will turn into a riot.

In the Administrative Building, a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimd glasses, who appeared elegant and amiable, stood by the window, looking at the scene in the plaza below with so worry.

He felt this was like a powder keg; any spark would cause a violent explosion.

Today was New Birth Festival; more than half of the City Association’s direct Ard Forces were on holiday, and as for the Field Operations Departnt of Deathmatch Campus, it was even hard to find anyone.

Relying solely on those Security Personnel from the local Security Departnt, if a disturbance occurred, it really couldn’t be guaranteed that the trouble could be suppressed.

The middle-aged man turned and pressed the call button on the desk.

“Help

connect to the Urban Area Managent Committee of the Shelter, and inquire if this protest rally can be terminated early.”

After waiting a mont, he pressed the call button again.

“Have Cheng Zhi Wu confirm the list of personnel on holiday and recall holiday personnel as much as possible to prevent resident riot incidents.”

The facts proved that the middle-aged man’s worries were not unfounded.

Seeing that the crowd had not been thoroughly ignited, the Can Society backbones mixed in imdiately began to stir up conflict, proactively squeezing to the periphery, loudly cursing and shoving the Security Departnt personnel.

Those Security Personnel from the Security Departnt naturally could not silently take it; they unconsciously increased their force, which in turn affected the other protesting civilians.

The crowd’s emotions visibly beca irritable; so people directly treated the Security Personnel as the ruling group, venting their dissatisfaction.

With deliberate incitent from Can Society backbones among them, this situation was exactly what Can Society wanted to see.

The shoving and verbal abuse on the periphery grew increasingly intense.

When the anger reached its peak, so Security Departnt Security Personnel were horrified to see soone in the crowd pull out a homade short-barreled shotgun.

At this point, there was no need to inquire whether the one pulling the gun was a Can Society backbone or a scher among the ordinary civilians.

In any case, the mont the other party pulled the trigger and the gun barrel spat fire, the only question left was the scale of the riot.

A massive gunshot rang out, and many people instinctively crouched down.

After a brief silence, stimulated by blood, the crowd began to charge wildly, various noises mixing together, deafening.

The Security Departnt’s personnel, compared to the protest rally crowd, undoubtedly had an extrely disparate gap in quantity.

Moreover, they hadn’t expected the need to suppress a riot at the start, so they hadn’t brought much anti-riot shield equipnt or the like.

The crowd, like roaring waves, instantly broke through the Security Departnt’s defensive line; that thin human wall didn’t even provide much obstruction.

It was worth ntioning that the hundreds sitting quietly in front of the Administrative Building still acted as if they felt nothing, silently sitting in place with no reaction.

This kind of group thoroughly brainwashed by Can Society’s twisted fallacies basically had little aning in capturing and re-educating.

The frenzied crowd seized weapons, smashing everything in front of them.

Led by so Can Society backbones, the crowd sward toward the Administrative Building.

……

anwhile.

The Ard Forces Barracks located in the northeast of the Shelter naturally received the news of the Administrative Building being impacted at the first mont.

A Bald Strong Man sat at the desk, a lit cigarette clamped between his fingertips.

“Recall all personnel on holiday and head to the Central District to suppress the riot.”

“The vanguard troops have already set off, but…”

A Staff Officer added hesitantly: “Dispatching the City Association’s direct Ard Forces, won’t the casualties be uncontrollable?”
