That's a Wrap
[A huge question mark suddenly appeared in my little mind.]
[Ah... (breaking down) I'm not sure, let me check again... Oh no, let me ask again, did Kanasen really kidnap them?]
[Who would treat a kidnapper like this? He's trembling and stuttering, making Viewers all laugh until you're rich!]
[Kanasen: (Death smile)]
Upon hearing Kanasen's heartfelt, stammering speech, Patrick was initially speechless. Then, looking at the mess on the floor, his mind suddenly clicked, and a strong sense of foreboding washed over him. He jumped up from his chair, his face turning ugly. He lost interest in mocking Kanasen and Optical Brain to urgently contact everyone in Class 6, whether he looked up to them or not.
Too many people have died, and only a dozen hours have passed!
Based on the ballistics, weapon usage, and even accuracy analysis from the first live broadcast, Qin Su clearly only inflicted one wound; all the others were inflicted by Kanasen. This indicates that Qin Su was either too lazy to deal with those people or had no interest in doing so, and it's even more impossible for him to be indifferent in front of anyone. The corpses were definitely not inflicted by Qin Su himself, so it could only be Kanasen.
Qin Su could never associate with someone like Kanasen, and Kanasen must be well aware of this fact, otherwise his voice wouldn't have been filled with fear just now. Kanasen must also be wondering if he would be next after all the hostages were killed. Based on this guess, Kanasen must be mentally ill to have killed four-fifths of the hostages in just a few hours.
What happened at the scene that he didn't know about?
One minute, two minutes... a full five minutes passed, and Patrick's patience ran out. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the ever-increasing death toll in the live stream.
Even now, not even the most influential person in Class 6) has paid him any attention. No matter how much of a puppet he is, he is still the Federation President. He has never been treated so coldly by people whose foundations are not yet secure. According to the behavior of some people in Class 6) recently, they will definitely not ignore the olive branch he has extended. There must be a reason why they cannot... no, they dare not.
Patrick: "..."
Besides Qin Su, he couldn't think of anyone else...
Before the thought could even settle in his mind, a short buzzing sound rang in his ears. Patrick looked at Qiu Pang's anxious expression on the Optical Brain screen and let the person in.
"It's over, it's over, it's over..." Qiu Pang hurriedly walked towards Patrick. From a distance, he saw the page on Patrick's Optical Brain and his dejected look. He slowed his pace, his voice gradually fading. He moved quietly to a suitable spot, his eyes lingering on Patrick's unmuted live stream and on Patrick himself, waiting for him to recover from the sudden and enormous blow.
Qiu Pang silently counted to the eighth shot before receiving a message from Patrick, followed by the other party's order to leave.
"Go outside first."
"Good."
Qiu Pang sensed the suppressed emotion in Patrick's voice and immediately knew better than to leave.
Shortly after Qiu Pang left, Patrick grabbed a handful of his thinning hair, trying to force himself to calm his bad mood.
Qin Su suddenly quickened his pace. Perhaps it was because he knew about his private actions, or perhaps Qin Su was too lazy to pretend well and just went through the motions to give Class 6) a legitimate opportunity to become famous overnight. Even so, Qin Su still liked to do things without leaving any handles and was considerate of Class 6), not wanting them to be criticized in the future because of this battlefield.
Who exactly is spreading rumors that Qin Su has been quite cold towards Class 6) lately? What kind of idiot would call this neglect?! He just believed those lies to some extent and mistakenly thought he still had time to strike back!
After recovering from his anger, envy, jealousy and twisted emotions, Patrick knew that in this situation, nothing he did would help. But if he did nothing, he found that he could not calmly and accept everything. He could only leave Atopulai Palace immediately and have someone investigate and report on the unusual activities of which people and places in Class 6) since they left Atopulai Palace. He wanted to keep himself busy as much as possible and try to get involved.
--
At the Setini Palace, Kanasen stared palely at the scene of bloodshed. Just a second ago, in the instant Qin Su looked over, he had carried out countless shots. Now, apart from Qin Su and himself, the only survivor was Greyliff.
The thought that if Greyliff were to die, Qin Su might turn his gun on him made Kanasen's hand holding the gun tremble uncontrollably.
But Greyliff never once glanced at him, his eyes fixed intently on Qin Su's direction, as if he, the Emperor of the Ossotalia Empire, was completely oblivious to Qin Su...
"..."
There was nowhere to reason with him; he was truly nothing in front of Qin Su... Wait a minute, why did Qin Su take the weapon himself? Was it because he didn't perform well enough that Qin Su was planning to drag him down with him...? No, why is he appearing on screen too?!
Kanasen stared wide-eyed at his reflection in the camera, while simultaneously focusing on the gun Qin Su was toying with, twirling it around in his hand. His head was buzzing.
With only one person left, Qin Su reached for a weapon on the table while carefully adjusting the live stream camera to include Kanasen in the shot.
All the planets where so many hostages reside combined are not as valuable as the Federation where Greyliff resides alone, so he naturally has to treat Greyliff with extra care.
The live-streaming Optical Brain belonged to Kanasen. Apart from its owner Kanasen, the invading Qin Su, and the Viewers in the live-streaming room, Greyliff, who was present, could not see the specific live-streaming content.
"!"
Greyliff waited patiently until he saw the last hostage besides himself die. Qin Su then picked up the weapon on the table, and his lifeless eyes suddenly lit up.
Of all the people there, Qin Su deliberately kept him until the end. Doesn't this prove that, at least in Qin Su's eyes, he is somewhat different from the other hostages?
[Why is Kanasen suddenly on screen? Wasn't he just heard before?]
[Something's definitely up to no good; I'm guessing he's going to take the blame.]
[No, is that the point? Please open your eyes and look at Kanasen now. Doesn't anyone care about him?]
[My goodness! I didn't realize it until I reminded you. It's been so long since I've seen Kanasen, what happened to him? I remember the last time he appeared on camera, he was still very young. It's only been less than two years, how come he looks more than twenty years older than his peers?]
[I've noticed you guys never get to the point. Look closely, Greyliff's gaze is exactly the same as Kanasen's. What does that mean? It means there's definitely a third party present. What appears to be a confrontation between two people is merely a third party using force to show us what they want us to see! The only person capable of making these two so terrified... uh? It seems only Kanasen is terrified. Greyliff looks so dark, twisted, and with a hint of paranoia... cough cough cough, sorry, wrong scene. Anyway, only that one person could do something like this!]
[Decoding at a Glance: Qin Su]
[Does it still need decoding? Is this a hidden card?]
After taking about three seconds to adjust the camera angle, Qin Su glanced at the comments, gripped his weapon tightly, and pointed the gun at Kanasen.
He probably knew what Greyliff was thinking, but that was impossible; even if he killed him, he wouldn't leave any concrete evidence.
"?"
Greyliff watched helplessly as Qin Su turned the gun away from him and aimed it at Kanasen, his hopes dashed. He frowned, his face showing obvious displeasure.
Greyliff instinctively opened his mouth as if to say something, only to realize that his mouth, which he had been unable to open before, could now open and close freely. A look of surprise and delight flashed in his eyes, and he quickly tried to say something.
The next second, before Greyliff could utter a single word, his mouth still slightly open, he heard a number sound from his right. His heart skipped a beat, followed by a 'bang' and a sharp pain in the right side of his head.
"!"
The micro-bullet pierced Greyliff's skull in an instant. Greyliff died suddenly, his pupils still dilated, lying stiffly on the ground. Until his last moment of losing consciousness, his eyes were fixed on Qin Su's direction in disbelief.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Greyliff lying motionless on the ground. Kanasen cautiously observed Qin Su's reaction until he saw Qin Su remove the gun he was pointing at and throw the weapon on the table. His wildly pounding heart calmed down a little. He swallowed hard, his throat dry, and continued to wait cautiously, not daring to look at the content on the screen of Qin Su's personal Optical Brain.
Greyliff and the others successfully wrapped up filming, and Qin Su, just like yesterday, continued to lead the charge with countless trumpets.
[W-Why is the head suddenly all Mosaic?!]
[Avenge Greyliff!]
[Provocation! The Ossotalia Empire is declaring war on us Federation Camilla Planet @Dole Dolai Planet Confederacy @SaintPagnia Saint Parknia Planet... I forgot the rest, but anyway!]
[I've captured a GIF; you can see that when he fired, he didn't even look at Greyliff, but rather in the direction Greyliff was looking. He was clearly acting based on Qin Su's expression.]
[The Ossotalia Empire has gone too far!! Overthrowing the tyrant Kanasen's rule is imperative!]
[Real person speaking? Are you crazy to avenge a bunch of scum? Are you alright?]
[Use a seemingly honest child as a pretext to make a fuss?]
[If that's what you're saying... revenge! We must get revenge!]
After Qin Su finished directing and performing his own stunts, jumping around and setting the pace, he finally had time to glance at Kanasen 'Kanasen livestream.
"Don't worry," Qin Su said sincerely, "I have no interest in your life."
According to his plan, the person who should be interested in Kanasen's life is He Muzhi.
"!"
Kanasen, who had been on tenterhooks for so long, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
After calming Kanasen down, Qin Su didn't want to stay in that suffocating environment for even a second longer, and immediately turned and walked out.
Kanasen heard the sound of Qin Su's military boots stepping on the blood, hesitated for two seconds, swallowed hard, and followed.
Snap--
Kanasen's foot had barely made a soft sound when he saw Qin Su, who had been striding forward, stop abruptly.
"!"
Kanasen froze instantly, then heard Qin Su's icy voice.
"Did I let you come along?"
