These Islamists are completely out of control and are full of hostility towards them. Some people even threaten to pull Ellis down even if he finally takes the position of president.
The implication was that he wanted to launch a coup.
Whether it is Catholicism or Islam, they have certain armed forces on hand. If they are desperate and launch a war, it is very likely that it will cause incalculable consequences.
"I recently received news that people from the Islamic side are in contact with arms dealers and want to purchase a batch of equipment. Do they have ulterior motives for doing this?"
Ellis took a deep breath, knowing that the matter could not be delayed any longer, "Pass the news, I will hold a press conference in two days."
He had to make an explanation to the public about Raftery's death. Even if he was asked to apologize in public, he would be willing if it could slightly ease the situation at hand.
Ellis was also very angry. This incident had nothing to do with him, but a lot of dirty water was thrown on his head, and it even affected his image and rights.
If Raftery hadn't already issued a death notice, he might have thought it was a hoax just to kick him out of the presidential race.
"Jingle Bell--"
There was a rapid ringing of the phone. I don't know what the person on the other end of the phone said. Ellis' face was extremely ugly, and even his voice was distorted because of the shock.
"What did you say!"
"How could this happen!"
It turned out that people wearing Catholic attire arrested many demonstrators and beat them up. They even broke into the homes of believers who had posted papers, smashed, looted and burned things. They were no different from gangsters.
It can be said that the anger was completely ignited at this time. What was originally just panic and anger completely evolved into a riot.
The Muslims resisted and fought with the Catholics. They also broke into Catholic shops or homes and began to destroy everything wantonly.
Both sides go back and forth, and more and more innocent people are involved.
Ellis was furious.
"What did those people do? Didn't I tell them? I've been in the spotlight recently. Don't cause trouble for me. Let's wait until the storm passes."
"It's a good thing that they just created such a big hole for me. Isn't it because I have dealt with too few things recently and the situation is not chaotic enough?"
The subordinates also felt a little strange, "That's not right. I've already told them that the bishops said they would restrain their own believers. Logically speaking, they shouldn't."
Ellis interrupted him impatiently, "Forget it, it's useless to talk about this now. Quickly notify the police station and don't let the situation continue to expand, otherwise it will really get out of hand."
The police handled the matter very quickly this time. After all, if so many people participated in the fight, if something happened, they would not be able to bear the responsibility.
Soon the chaotic situation on the street was under control. Many people ran away when the situation was bad, and most of the people involved in the fight were arrested.
Including those who demonstrated, they were the victims in the first place. "Why should they arrest us? They were the ones who started the attack. We were just acting in self-defense!"
"Have you, the police, been bribed by Catholics? You don't distinguish between black and white, right from wrong! If you want to arrest these people, you should arrest them."
In fact, the police followed the procedure and took both parties to the fight to record statements for investigation. However, the angry Islamists could not listen to this at all.
When the police saw this, they stopped explaining and took them all back first.
Qin Tian looked at the calm street and couldn't help but yawned, "It seems that I should be able to sleep well tonight."
I originally thought this was the end, but I didn't expect it was just the beginning.
At night, a remote Catholic church.
Countless Islamists came here, maybe a hundred of them, their faces filled with hatred and anger.
"Friends, you have heard what happened during the day. We just want to seek justice for Mr. Raftery, but how did those despicable Catholics treat us?"
"They want to sew our mouths, don't let us make a sound, and try to use force to make us submit! Now even the police are bribed by them and are completely directed to their side."
"If we don't take action, we will be the next victims! Mr. Raftery's death is the best example. Even he will not be spared, let alone us!"
The impassioned speech aroused everyone's emotions. The seeds of hatred were planted in the hearts of this group of people, and gradually grew into towering trees. They couldn't wait to find an outlet to vent.
The expressions of the people in the audience were filled with the flames of hatred, their fists were clenched, and veins were popping out on their foreheads. If there was a Catholic here at this time, they would probably be torn into pieces by them.
This scene made Rollman very satisfied. He looked around and raised his hands.
"Many of our relatives and compatriots are in dire straits now. If this continues, there will no longer be a place for us in Byzantium."
"From now on, we must save ourselves and let those people feel our hatred and anger! Only in this way will they feel fear and fear, and we will not be trampled on!"
Countless people in the audience also raised their hands and shouted, leaving only deep-seated hatred.
"A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye!"
"A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye!"
A group of angry people even rushed to the cross, violently dismantled it, and stepped on it violently to vent their anger. Soon the cross broke into countless pieces.
At the same time, the statues and windows in the church were damaged in various ways and became very messy.
However, this alone was not enough to relieve their anger. As if it was a signal, they rushed out of the church one after another.
Watching their retreating figures, after everyone left, Luoman showed a meaningful smile, and then came to the prayer room nearby, where a dark shadow was vaguely visible.
There are people here!
He said respectfully: "Chief, everything has been done according to your instructions. I believe this group of angry Islamists can help us accomplish many things."
The person inside slowly walked out, and it turned out to be Borui, the leader of the Viper Organization!
He nodded with satisfaction, "You did a good job."
Rollman's status in Islam is quite good, so he is able to recruit so many Islamists.
Unexpectedly, he was also bribed, and cooperated with Borui to stage a big show tonight.
Even when conflicts occurred during the day, their people were there to interfere. Otherwise, the matter would never have developed to such a serious level.
What they want is to achieve this effect. Only when Byzantium is completely in chaos will they have the opportunity to take action.
