Almost at the same time.
In the team members' office on the first floor of the Bancarol City Inspection Office, it was a different scene.
The sturdy Scylla Calderon entered the door last, shrugged at all the Punishers sitting there, and smiled:
"Hey, Captain Mo really has to deal with those civilians personally!"
"Guess what he will do?"
None of the punishers in the room spoke when they heard this. Some were calm and speechless, as if they had not heard Calderon's words; some were looking left and right. Although they did not speak, they seemed to be looking at the expressions of other team members, silently asking about this. attitude towards things.
Calderon did not ask any further questions. He pulled out a chair and sat lazily on it. He clenched his fists and pointed at the wall behind him with his thumb:
"In the conference room next to it, the captain seems to be letting the people who were brought back in one by one. He seems to..."
After a pause, doubt appeared on Calderon's face:
"He wants to interrogate everyone personally and find out who is from the Southern Tribe!"
After hearing what he said, everyone broke the silence and started whispering to their colleagues around them.
The mixed-race beauty Sharna, who applied to be in the same car as the new captain, showed a confused expression:
"Interrogation in person?"
"Captain Mo is serious... We have actually told him, and Uncle Robinson also told him... Even if we find one or two of the militants, it will be useless to the overall situation."
"After all..." Sharna showed a helpless expression:
"I searched over and over again, but I couldn't find the senior officials of the Southern Tribe."
"Three things to do when a new official takes office." Robinson, who was sitting across the long table and enjoying a cup of black tea in front of him, saw Sharna mentioning him and put down the teacup:
"You still have to look good! Right?"
"We all know the result. Even if we can really find out the elder level... haha." There was a meaningful expression on his face, as if he raised his eyes and looked at the ceiling:
"The most helpless thing is that with the power of our Bancarol City Supervision Office, how can we deal with the elders of the southern tribe?"
Hearing this, the other members, including Sharna, fell silent again.
This is the reality that they Bancarroll City Punishers have never been able to face...
Hearing what he said, Calderon looked a little unhappy, and his tone suddenly became a little darker:
"Brother Robinson, please don't forget your duty as a punisher!"
"Captain Silver was seriously injured and Captain Li Feng died in the line of duty...Don't you think we should do something?"
"Haha..." Robinson smiled gloomily when he heard this. He seemed to be recalling the scene of working with the former director and captain, and his tone was a little weaker:
"The two of them... are admirable captains and directors. I don't deny this, but..." His tone was low, and there seemed to be an inextricable fog in front of his eyes, speaking in a voice that could hardly be heard. The voice said:
"It's just that they didn't want to give up the pursuit of the secret organization, so they..."
Halfway through his words, he could no longer say the next words because Calderon next to him was already glaring at him.
Calderon gritted his teeth and said almost every word: "We want to avenge the captain and the director!"
At this time, after hearing their discussion, a young punisher with a rectangular face and a clean shaven beard looked thoughtful, and said to everyone in a soliloquy tone:
"Calderon is right! Brother Robinson, you need to have some fighting spirit!"
"Since we receive Pandora's generous salary and enjoy the good working environment and various conveniences brought by our positions, we should always remember the obligations written in the "Punisher Handbook."
After a pause, he turned his head and looked at the wall behind Calderon, with a smile on his face:
"I think... Well, I personally think Captain Mo is very good. You see... After encountering such an attack just now, Captain Mo didn't panic at all. He has the demeanor of a punisher captain."
"Moreover, he didn't show any fear after listening to our description of the situation, which shows that...well, I mean, he should be an experienced punisher who has seen many battles. "
"Otherwise, it would be impossible for the headquarters to send him here to be the punisher captain! You know, the headquarters firmly resists the Southern Tribe. The arrival of Captain Unpredictable shows that the headquarters recognizes his abilities and trusts him to make corresponding decisions. score."
Unpredictable was busy using his mind-reading skills to find Hesse militants in the nearby conference room, so he didn't hear what he said. If he had heard it, student Mo would probably blush...
He said knowingly, when I was attacked by more than a dozen guns, I huddled up and used a "defensive" windbreaker to protect my little white wife, but actually... I was extremely scared.
Then, he would add, what's wrong with being afraid? It's not shameful to be afraid. Who the hell says you can't be afraid when being ravaged by dozens of guns? Fear is human, no, it is a normal and natural emotional reaction of the Ironborn!
After hearing him share his thoughts on the new captain, the next male Punisher, who had a sallow complexion and was about thirty years old, laughed:
"It seems that Mototaki also has high expectations for the new captain!"
He knocked on the table with his hand, but his eyes glanced at the somewhat silent old man Robinson, intentionally or unintentionally. It wasn't until Robinson noticed his gaze and looked at him in the same way that he knocked on the table, as if as a reminder. Said something:
"Captain Unpredictable...Haha, he is still young."
"A punisher captain in his early twenties..." He seemed to shake his head slightly:
"After all, he is still too young. It is hard for me to believe that he can lead our Bancarol City Punisher team. Even if this is the intention of the headquarters, I will think it is a mistake in the personnel selection of the headquarters."
He nodded slightly to what he meant, picked up the cigarette case on the table, popped out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, lit it, and then said lightly with the cigarette butt between his hands:
"He said... we can ask the headquarters to support a mind reader, and we can easily identify people from the southern tribe among these people. I think... this shows that he has a very good relationship with the headquarters. "
The finger holding the cigarette pointed at it, showing a trace of amusement:
"Do you think he was sent to us as the Punisher Captain because of someone above him?"
Hearing what he said, Robinson's depressed mood seemed to be revived. He immediately sat upright and looked around at everyone with a solemn expression:
"That makes sense!"
"A punisher in his early twenties can become the captain of the punisher in a provincial capital city. This in itself is doubtful!"
"That's enough for you~~" The Tang Dynasty Punisher, who seemed to have a good impression of the new captain, Motaki, who had a rectangular face, smiled helplessly:
"Gendry, this is simply groundless speculation."
Gendry, who held a cigarette in his hand, did not refute, but made a gesture of spreading his hands with a smile on his face:
"I've said it all, it's my personal opinion!"
Robinson tapped the table with his fingers, drawing everyone's attention back to him:
"What we need... is a captain who can take charge of the overall situation and even have the ability to eradicate the cancer of the Southern Tribe. I believe everyone agrees on this."
"Anyway...Team Mo is still too young, don't you think?"
"Haha..." He suddenly laughed, stood up, and said while pacing left and right in the open space behind the chair:
"We might as well see how he handles the matter in front of him, how he finds the guys from the Southern Tribe among more than 400 civilians, and more importantly, we want to see how he does it later!"
"If he really finds out the top leaders of the Southern Tribe's King or Star level, and is really capable of bringing those people to justice, then we will obey him!"
"But, haha, if he is a fool, he might lead us directly to the door to arrest him. In that case... he will take all of us to hell!"
"Everyone, you should know how dangerous it is! We must save ourselves!"
When Yuan Taki heard what he said, the bitterness on his face deepened, and he said helplessly:
"Uncle Robinson, don't you think you are contradicting yourself?"
"You not only hope that Team Mo can achieve results and prove that he has the ability to become the captain of the Punisher, but at the same time you refuse to cooperate with his actions, fearing that you will offend the senior leaders of the Southern Tribe, thus making us... In short, you What do you want Captain Unpredictable to do?"
"What should I do? Captain Mo is wrong, right? Should Captain Mo Zhi be allowed to descend from heaven with divine weapons to fight against the Southern Tribe on his own?"
"No, no, no, you can't say that, Xiao Motaki." Gendry, who was still smoking a cigarette comfortably, interrupted and shook his head:
"You are still too young! Didn't I express my personal opinion earlier? This Captain Mo is likely to have inextricable connections with Pandora Headquarters. In addition, as the captain, he has the right to request support from the Headquarters."
"I mean, maybe he doesn't need us at all." Gendry chuckled and turned his attention to Robinson again:
"People may not look down on our Punisher team at all."
"Enough, enough!" Calderon couldn't listen anymore and interrupted, waving his palm like a cattail leaf fan:
"Stop discussing it. Every time I hear you arguing, I feel so irritated that I want to kill someone!"
He suddenly became excited, slammed the table, stood up and turned his back to everyone, showing by his actions that he was tired of the discussion in front of him.
"Hahaha..." Sharna smiled softly when she saw his appearance:
"Brother Calderon, you can't always control your emotions."
She has the dark skin of a Hesse, but also has darker eyes and blue pupils because of her mixed race. She looked around at everyone:
"What Brother Robinson said makes sense. After all, for us, living is the most important thing."
Seeing several team members frowning when they heard what she said, Sharna chuckled again and turned to look at Moto Taki, the representative of the Mo faction:
"Brother Motaki is right... isn't he?"
"The new captain is still very calm, especially... Haha, don't you think he has the face of a good boy, which is cute?"
"There is no need for us to have a meaningless quarrel. In short, Captain Mozhi has an arrow on the string and has to take action. He has sworn personally that he will shoot all these more than 400 civilians."
"This fierceness really interests me!"
Sharna chuckled and looked at the wall in the direction of Calderon:
"I don't know if he can keep his word!"
Before he finished speaking, Robinson continued hurriedly:
"Of course you're bragging! Do you even need to say it?"
"To kill more than 400 civilians innocently, how cold-hearted does that have to be?"
"If nothing else, just relying on this excuse, as long as the Southern Tribe gently incites public opinion, countless brave Hesse people will stand up and overthrow the entire Supervisory Office!"
"The Southern Tribe... Haha, you don't even need to do it yourself! Even if Pandora can take action against the Southern Tribe, it's hard to do anything to so many righteous civilians who are resisting, because they are the righteous party!"
"If he dares to do this, it will prove that he is stupid! He is not worthy to be Ben Carroll's Punisher Captain! I, Robinson, will be the first to refuse..."
At this point, Robinson was originally rejoicing for his reasoned and impassioned speech, but suddenly his heart moved, and his expression froze as if he remembered something.
He looked around at everyone and said in an unconvincing tone:
"Wait, wait, it doesn't seem right! You don't even need to shoot all these people, they can already be used by the Southern Tribe!"
"Think about it, more than 400 Hesse civilians were arrested... Just for this excuse, the southern tribe only needs to publicize this matter a little bit... Wouldn't it be..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the puppet who was searching the entire city with his Sky Eye in the team member's office suddenly stood up, released the metal wheel of the Sky Eye, and said in the puppet's unique ethereal voice:
"In the city... in the city... a large number of people are gathering, and they are coming towards... us!"
"There are many people...many..."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
All the punishers present turned their attention to this puppet who reported the crisis.
But Sharna took advantage of everyone's attention and inadvertently glanced at the next...
Gendry's location.
At this time, Gendry, who had finished smoking a cigarette, also heard the spirit puppet's alarm, but his expression suddenly became relaxed.
With the same casual glance at Sharna, he relaxed, leaned back on the chair, took out a cigarette again, and lit it with relief.
"Go and report to the captain!"
The first person to react was the tall Calderon. He turned around and was about to push open the door of the team member's office and go next door to notify Mozhi.
Unexpectedly, after the door was opened, the door was blocked by inspectors wearing the uniforms of the Supervision Office.
Captain Mike even stood outside the door of the team members' office, ready for action.
"What do you mean?" Calderon asked in surprise.
When Captain Mike heard this, he immediately stood still, raised his arms comically, and jumped on the spot:
"In reply to Chief Punisher, Director Unpredictable ordered that all Punishers must stay in the team members' office."
