Kai doesn't bother to talk about them. In fact, Kai still doesn't quite understand why the authors of superhero comics like to make their heroes wear tight clothes to highlight their figures. It seems that this is the only reason, that thing cannot provide any defense at all.
Snapped!
Kai threw out a newspaper, and it was the three of them on the front page.
"You are famous! I believe it won't be long before the whole United States knows you. Are you happy?"
The attitude of the three people towards the newspaper was completely different. Kelly's eyes were shining. If Kai hadn't been watching eagerly from the side, maybe the girl would have taken the newspaper and admired her heroic appearance. Diana snorted arrogantly. On the surface, she didn't seem to care, but in fact, she was still full of a sense of accomplishment. Only Catherine didn't react at all to this. She was used to hiding in the dark and wasn't too enthusiastic about this kind of thing. She would just follow along and mess around, just out of boredom.
Seeing that the three of them still didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, Kai was a little speechless.
"You think this is a good thing?"
Kelly glanced at Kai and found that Kai's expression was no longer as angry as before, so he boldly said, "Isn't it? We are just doing good things. You don't even know what those people did."
Kelly told them what they saw and heard.
They saw a hell on earth in the lair of Carlos and his gang. Dozens of smugglers who were smuggled from South America to Chicago were hidden in a container because there was no ventilation. Two younger children were missing because of lack of ventilation. Oxygen died, and inside the container, the stench of sweat, the scandal of excrement, and the stench of the dead mixed together, making everyone inside dying.
Those young and beautiful girls were singled out by the smugglers, who forced them to sign so-called work contracts, and their first job was to force them to have sex with those bastards, and they were not paid.
Some girls who tried to resist suffered even worse experiences. They were beaten and forcibly violated. Even when Kelly and the others arrived, two girls died because they could not bear the torture!
"Those bastards have no humanity at all!"
Kai didn't say anything, but he could actually think of it. There are only two kinds of people in the world that Kai hates the most, one is drug dealers, and the other is human traffickers. The former is inhumane, while the latter is dehumanizing. Kai had handled several cases of human traffickers in his previous life, but those cases were also a challenge for Kai, a challenge that tested his ultimate sanity.
Every time I see those families that are on the verge of collapse because of the loss of their children, and those children who have been rescued but are no longer innocent, this is not a bad thing, but what is even more disgusting is that Kai once had a fight with a brother unit in a neighboring province. After a joint operation, they rescued a group of mutilated children. Those children were disabled and then went to beg...
The human heart is sometimes more cruel than anything in the world.
In short, after seeing that scene, those veteran criminal police officers who were familiar with life and death couldn't stand it anymore.
I really wish I could kill those guys with a thousand knives.
So Kai himself was not angry at what Kelly and the others did.
"We didn't say you did something wrong, I said you should do it cleaner!"
It's just a group of human traffickers, just kill them. But that's not how things happened. Why did the scene become so big?
"Cleaner?" Kelly didn't understand.
"That's right! Without a body, there is no case, without bloodstains, there is no evidence, and without gunshots, there is no report! It's just killing people, it doesn't have to be so bloody, right? With your abilities, you can do it without anyone noticing. , why do you need to make it known to everyone? More importantly, if you do this, it will attract the attention of those forces with malicious intentions. Once you are targeted by them, you will not have a good life. "
Kai sincerely doesn't object to their heroic deeds. After all, this is science fiction, not cultivation. If you have the ability, you can naturally do something within your ability. Anyway, you can't live forever like cultivation.
But the thing is, it doesn’t have to be that big.
But Kelly and the other three Kay's advice was a little disapproving.
"But we are doing good things! Besides, they will come when they come, we are not afraid of them!" Kelly is relatively young and energetic, and has no idea that those mysterious organizations are powerful.
Cha Chakai was afraid that they would think so.
"A good thing? Really? Maybe now the newspapers report that you are superheroes and praise you vigorously, but what about later? You are killing people! And unscrupulously! Do you know that during the day today, Teresa found me? , the superiors of the police department are very angry with what you have done. They have already issued an order to arrest you. This is just the beginning. Maybe you will think that this is only done by those in power, and ordinary people will support you. "
"Isn't it?" It was Diana who asked this time. She felt that they were doing good things, and the biggest beneficiaries were ordinary people, who should stand with them.
"Haha, if you were an ordinary person, would you like a murderer?"
"But we are killing bad guys!" Diana was very dissatisfied with Kai calling them murderers.
"So what? How many people do you think will care? Now they may be happy that you killed those human traffickers and worship you, but what will happen later? What will they think if you continue to kill people?"
American society, and even Western society as a whole, has been poisoned by a kind of unrestricted maintenance and protection of so-called 'human rights'. There are many social groups in society who are defending those criminals who deserve it most. They call for the abandonment of the death penalty and emphasize the need to improve the treatment of those criminals. There are even countries that believe that criminals who escape from prison should not increase their prison terms or increase their harsh sentences. Because it is human nature to yearn for 'freedom'...
In fact, Kai really doesn't understand this approach. The death penalty stipulated in the law is not to satisfy some people's desire to kill, but to protect the lives of more people. It is a kind of shock. Just like in previous lives, China has never abolished the death penalty, so some Western media began to make articles about this, and even tried to confuse right and wrong, accusing our country of having no human rights. There are also a group of Erque who don’t know whether they are really stupid or fake. They follow the foreigners and feel that China’s failure to abolish the death penalty is a sign of backwardness. The abolition of the death penalty is a sign of civilization...
Where does the logic come from?
If we only want to protect the human rights of these bad people, who will protect the human rights of good citizens?
Let’s digress and come back to this matter. At this stage, things have just begun to ferment. In order to attract people's attention, the media will naturally suppress it first and then raise it, because this can arouse controversy. When there is controversy, there will naturally be attention.
In fact, another version of this story has appeared online.
They are like wise men who are sober when everyone is drunk. They tell others that those criminals will not be punished by death according to the sentencing. This is a violation of human rights and so on.
Kai believes that if things continue like this, according to the current political correctness, public opinion will soon turn around. By that time... the current superhero situation will soon become a situation where everyone is shouting to fight.
"We do things for justice! Not to get praise from others at all!"
Diana said unwillingly.
Kelly glanced at Diana, and then puffed out her proud chest a little guiltily.
Catherine curled her lips. She really didn't care. She was originally a weapon. Have you ever seen a weapon care about other people's opinions? But Diana and Kelly are different. It can be said that Kelly is really just out of vanity, but Diana... this woman is just a tsundere Bichi who doesn't mean what she says!
Don't look at what she says now that she doesn't care about other people's opinions, but in fact, she cares a lot.
Just now I kept looking at the newspaper.
"Really?" Kai said noncommittally. "Okay, just pretend you don't care. Then your friends and family don't care either? Don't think you hide it well. Which idiot told you that wearing a mask can make people unrecognizable to you?"
Superhero comics, of course!
For example, Superman would be unrecognizable if someone else wore glasses...
Kelly felt guilty.
"With today's criminal investigation methods, there are too many methods to confirm a person's true identity. Let's not talk about fingerprints and DNA. They are all poorly acted in TV dramas. Voiceprints, images, voices, intonations, habitual movements, on-site Tiny traces, even a little bit of body tissue that you inadvertently shed, such as skin flakes, hair, etc. If someone is willing to invest a lot of resources, you can even detect your clothes from the fibrous tissue on these "fancy clothes" Where did you get it made to order?”
Kai is a criminal investigator, so he naturally knows that investigating a person is not as difficult as imagined. It is just a matter of investment. If you really have to spend tens of millions, there is no one in this world who cannot be photographed. In reality, it’s not that those missing people are impossible to find, but it’s a matter of whether it’s worth it. Nothing is unachievable.
Someone has said that life depends on fate, but how much does it cost to save people?
Of course this is true, but the problem is a practical one that must also be considered! Take Kai's former branch as an example. The financial allocation was so large that it couldn't afford to spend hundreds of thousands on a case, let alone tens of millions. There's no other way, resources are limited, you can't just give up all the feature films just for one thing, right? The ultimate goal of the police is to maintain social order, but the question is what to do without money?
But when it comes to this matter, it's different. Some organizations are willing to spend tens of millions or even hundreds of millions to find out the true identities of Kelly and others.
Kai's words silenced several people, of course the most important one was Kelly, she also has a mother!
Diana didn't have many relatives in human society, but the problem was that she wasn't free from worries either. She also socializes and has her own friends. Catherine, on the other hand, is really carefree, but she can't stand it. She likes modern society, and she doesn't want to lose her interest in shopping.
"People cannot live in a vacuum. If you still want to live freely, you must pay attention to your behavior!" Kai said a little harshly.
"Then you mean...we have to turn a blind eye to those crimes?"
"Of course not!" Kai would not stop them from doing justice. As mentioned above, Kai is a consequentialist. A consequentialist does not care about whether the procedure is legal, but the result is everything. Therefore, in their eyes, as long as the crime is a crime, it should undoubtedly be sanctioned, and the procedure is only a tool rather than the purpose. The result should not be denied because the procedure is illegal, but the procedure should be allowed to serve the result.
Kai never felt that this was absolutely correct and that nothing in this world was certain. But this is the most humane thing. So he didn't care much about their chivalry. After all, doing so is indeed punishing criminals, and its positive significance cannot be denied at all.
What Kai cares about is the ways. The same results, using different techniques, have completely different impacts.
“You can be more flexible and smarter!”
Kelly was immediately interested: "What to do?"
"You must classify the criminals you know. Don't kill them indiscriminately. That will not do much except disgusting the public. For example, if the crimes are more serious, you can definitely beat them up, even if they are left with some disabilities. .For example, twisting fingers, breaking arms, etc., if it is more severe, breaking limbs, and if possible, throw these two types of people to the police, let them increase their memory, be beaten and go to jail. There are also some heinous crimes. , of course you can make them evaporate, but you have to do it cleanly and quietly."
Diana thought about it for a moment, then couldn't help but retort: "Wouldn't it be able to scare other people?"
"Tsk... Are you really that stupid to think those criminals are that good? They don't think about it when a living person disappears? Do they still naively think that those people who disappeared went on a trip?"
Criminals like those who bleed on the streets actually have much better information channels and sensitivity than the police. The police need evidence for everything, but they don't. They are much better at free testimonials. Once there are many such things, they will naturally understand.
Of course Diana wouldn't understand those gangsters.
"Also... aren't you here to find the statue of Ares? Why are you following Kelly around?" As he spoke, Kai remembered, didn't Diana come to the United States just for the statue? How come it took so long and she wasn't worried about this at all? "By the way, and you! Catherine!"
Diana was still thinking about Kai's words, but when she was suddenly asked this question, she felt a little embarrassed.
And Kelly was extremely aggrieved. What do you mean by following me and messing around? The most positive person is Diana! Kelly felt aggrieved, but she didn't dare to say that Diana was her master...
Catherine still didn't care much: "My main purpose is to come to you. As for the statue... Oh, there will always be a way to do it anyway."
Catherine's idea is actually very simple. If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. We will talk about it when the time comes!
Very salty mentality.
Although Diana was not that salty, she probably thought so in her heart.
