It was a loss for everyone.
The people were bound to be upset because they had lost their closest loved ones, so it was only natural that they could not suppress their emotions.
But after hearing what Su Yang and Erwin had said,
everyone could see their sincerity, and they were truly moved.
So many of the people said,
"All right, all right. Since the commander has already put it this way,"
"if we keep making a scene here, it will only make us seem unreasonable."
"Let's go home and wait for their good news."
In truth, many people were quite reasonable. If they kept causing trouble here,
not only would it fail to solve the problem, it would only make things worse.
So everyone gradually dispersed.
After Erwin and Su Yang saw that everyone had gone home, they finally calmed down. At least the immediate problem had been resolved, and they hurried back to their quarters.
They wanted to rest and recover before continuing to fulfill their promise. They had to find all the people's children.
They absolutely could not let them die in the wilderness.
When they returned to their quarters, they saw that Jean's head had been beaten bloody.
As he sat there, he kept complaining about those people.
"Those people are simply unreasonable. We already explained everything to them."
"We told them exactly what happened, yet they still wouldn't let it go. Just look at your head."
"Look what they did to you. If I weren't a member of the Survey Corps, I would have fought back long ago."
Jean was truly furious. He felt that they had already had it hard enough.
They had finally managed to return, only to be beaten like this. It was simply absurd.
No one had expected something like this
