Chapter 657 The belated justice

The video opens.

It begins with a face hidden under the transparent visor of a space suit, occupying a small half of the screen.

It was a middle-aged man, and the background was a dark and boundless universe.

"You are a sinner."

The man's first sentence attracted everyone's attention.

Under the mask, the man's eyes were almost boiling with anger.

Even through the screen, everyone could clearly feel his suppressed emotions.

"Reflect on the sins you have committed!"

After the man finished speaking, a burst of snowflakes flashed on the screen, and then another picture appeared.

In the dark and dead space, a space station is quietly suspended in its proper orbit.

But soon, an unexpected guest appeared!
A white rocket flew out from the side of the screen, and flew straight past the space station as if it hadn't seen it.

On the white shell of the rocket, everyone can see the conspicuous red writing.

Yuuki shuddered and grabbed the chair under him with both hands.

He stared at the screen with wide eyes, frowned, and slowly read the scarlet letters on the shell of the rocket.

"Happy Birthday? Huh?"

He just finished chanting.

On the screen, the white rocket hit the space station hard.

Bang bang bang-! ! !
Intensive explosions sounded like firecrackers.

The sparks lit up and expanded thousands of times in an instant!

The dazzling orange flames, like a flame demon from hell opened its mouth wide, swallowing the rocket and the space station together!
The flames of destruction rolled endlessly in space.

Zizizi——! !

The video flickered with snowflakes, then returned to the man's perspective.

"This is the crime you committed, I must kill you with my own hands!"

The man's flat tone became completely crazy when he said 'kill you'.

Those eyes full of anger and murderous intent seemed to pass through the screen and shoot at the murderer's face!
The video ends here completely.

Everyone's face became serious.

"This is?" Sogu Yuki looked up at President Sasaki and asked with a serious expression.

"That's right, this person threatened to kill that president." President Sasaki replied in a heavy voice.

Soon, Murray's voice sounded.

She quickly operated on the computer, and then asked everyone to look at the screen.

"Look, this is the report of the accident last month."

On the screen was a cover report called Dongming News.

The title in bold and black is——The Mysterious Explosion of the Space Station!

In the middle is a big photo.

In the photo, a couple in blue spacesuits hug each other.

They clenched their fists, with sunny smiles on their faces.

Next to the photo is a subtitle: Astronaut couple, are there no hope of survival?

"This uncle looks similar to the one in the video just now!"

Youxing was stunned for a moment when he heard Xia Xue's words, then he looked carefully at the photo on the screen, and his eyes widened.

"This person is not the one just now..."

He turned his head to look at Zong Guyu.

Sogu Yu put his palms together behind his head, with a serious expression on his face: "The accident was caused by the president's birthday rocket."

"Could it be that the victim came to kill the president for revenge?" Mei Lihua thought while resting her chin on one hand.

"Wait, if it's really this person, how did he come back to Earth?" Zong Guyu was stunned for a moment, and said immediately as if thinking of something.

"That's the problem. The video just now may have been made with computer special effects. Someone intentionally made a prank to trouble the president, but he entrusted us just in case." President Sasaki walked slowly. , clarified his thoughts and said.

Yuuki lowered his head, feeling a fire burning in his chest.

He couldn't imagine how desperate the astronaut couple were after the accident.

Soon, Yuuki raised his eyes slightly and asked, "Even if he is the culprit of the accident, do we still have to protect him?"

"Our work has nothing to do with the client's character." Sogu Yuki said immediately.

"But……"

You Xing wanted to say something, but Xia Xue beside him suddenly spoke.

"I also agree with Brother Yu's point of view."

"Xiaoxue, do you also think we should protect a murderer?" Yuyuki slowly turned his head, looking at the girl beside him, somewhat incomprehensible.

"Fortunately Nissan, we are neither police nor judges. We are not qualified to judge the law. We are just employees of the security company. We must faithfully complete the commission given by the client. This is the most basic professional quality." Xia Long looked at You Xing's eyes spoke word by word.

Of course, if the law fails to bring justice to the parties, the situation is different.

Yuuki opened his mouth when he heard that.

"me……"

He wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked.

He couldn't even say a complete sentence for a long time.

President Sasaki looked a little embarrassed at the atmosphere and walked quickly to Xia Long.

She squatted down with a look of surprise, and couldn't help but reached out and rubbed that delicate face.

"I didn't expect Xiaoxue to say such a thing in a serious manner. It's really surprising."

Afterwards, everyone saw the child's face constantly changing into various shapes under the hands of the president, and then explained a sentence with some difficulty.

"It's all... it's... Wogege... told Wo, Wo... thinks it's very handsome, so I borrowed it from... Lai."

"Xia Longsang said it? That's no wonder."

Mei Lihua pinched her clean chin, and immediately showed a clear expression.

Xia Long carefully broke free from President Sasaki's mischievous hands, and floated directly in front of the somewhat frustrated You Xing.

Yuuki raised his eyes slightly, a little surprised.

"Xiaoxue?"

He tentatively asked.

In the next second, I felt a soft little hand covering my hair, and then slowly stroked it.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Xue's soft voice floated over.

"Yuki Nissan, I understand how you feel right now, and I'm also very upset with that president's behavior.

But now there is insufficient evidence to confirm that he was the instigator of the accident.

So before the truth emerges, we just need to do what we should do now.

As for justice, it may be late, but I firmly believe that it will not be absent! "

After Youxing listened to Xia Xue's words, the haze in his heart was instantly swept away.

Yes, it's pointless to dwell on these things now.

Just do what you should do.

However, he soon blushed.

Let a small child comfort and enlighten me, it seems that I still have a lot of room for growth!

"Thank you, Xiaoxue, I'm in a much better mood now, so... don't you need to keep touching your head?" You Xing raised his head slightly, looked at Xia Xue who was stroking non-stop, and asked.

Xia Long's movements froze for a moment, and then he withdrew his hand a little embarrassed.

Tsk, miscalculated.

The feel of this head is exactly the same as the rhubarb raised by Uncle Zhang, the security guard of the company in the previous life.

The feeling of laughing and touching the dog's head is very addictive.

"Let's go, Yuuki, who told you that this is our job!" Sogu Yuki smiled, then reached out to grab the coat that was on the back of the chair, and walked out immediately.

Xiaoxue actually enlightened him, this kid still needs a lot of training!

"Yes." You Xing replied energetically, then grabbed his coat, put it on, and followed quickly.

"Be careful on the road." President Sasaki picked up the check on the table and smiled like a flower.

Xia Long watched the two figures go away, but did not choose to follow.

This is a normal security task (at least on the surface), so there is no need for him to follow.

But staying at the base is not without things to do.

Just when Xia Long turned around and was about to find a corner to do something, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.

【Task trigger】

Mission Name: Justice Overdue
Task Requirement 1: Please find out the criminal evidence of the president of Universe Ventures and make it public
Task requirement 2: Please let the president get the punishment he deserves.

Mission requirement 3: The deceased has passed away, please appease the anger of the dead soul Kujo Rento (male astronaut).

Task time limit: within one day.

Completion Reward: Ultra Card - Naios
Failure penalty: three days of transparency (don’t fail on purpose and do bad things!)

Remarks: When the law fails to bring justice to the parties concerned, private revenge is legitimate and even noble from this moment on.But I think it can be saved.

"Whether to accept?"

"of course."

Xia Long replied without thinking.

As for the task notes, he remembered them very clearly because he was too impressed.

This sentence needs to be read in conjunction with the original text, otherwise it is easy to take it out of context.

This sentence comes from "The Return of Sherlock Holmes: The Return of Milverton", in which Holmes rejected Inspector Lestrade's invitation to jointly investigate the murder of Milverton.

Milverton is one of the most dangerous criminals in London in the book, collecting confidential information from others and using it to blackmail.

Holmes was entrusted to retrieve an important letter from Milverton.

But the negotiations were fruitless (Milverton's price was equivalent to the annual salary of Colonel Moran, Moriarty's chief think tank, 7000 pounds, which is really greedy), so he decided to take abnormal measures (that is, steal).

In the process, he accidentally bumped into and witnessed the whole process of Milverton's murder.

It was one of his victims who killed Milverton—a grand dame whose ex-husband was a big shot and a celebrity herself.

Unsatisfied with Milverton's greed, a rash letter was leaked to her husband by the glutton and abandoned.

The beautiful marriage was ruined once, and the desperate woman chose to shoot the perpetrator for revenge.

Relying on the privacy of others in his hands, Milverton blackmails, intimidates and intimidates, and does everything he can to play with the fate of others.

Such a wicked person is full of evil, and there is more than enough time for death.

But legally, only the crimes of extortion and civil liability for infringing on the privacy of others can be investigated.

The consequences are as severe as in this case, but he is still not guilty of death.

The law at that time could not accurately and timely punish Milverton's crime.

In the end, the parties can only heal the trauma through revenge.

Vengeance is the source of punishment.

When the law is absent to appease the victim, revenge will be used by the parties as a substitute for the law.

Walk the last mile of restoring moral balance with private relief.

There is only one reasonable way to end the cycle of retaliation—with a better rule of law.

Why did astronaut Kujo Renren choose to take revenge on the giant infant president of Cosmos Ventures?

It's not because this guy launched a birthday commemorative rocket at will, which caused him and his lover to die for no reason.

They originally had a bright future and vowed to work together to clean up the debris in the universe.

But because of the birthday commemorative rocket launched by the giant baby president, everything was ruined.

In this way, the two loving lives fell into the cold and dark universe.

The most annoying thing is that the president is still at large.

Who can bear this?
"But even if there is no mission, I will still help. The poor couple of astronauts need an explanation."

Xia Long muttered to himself, then turned and walked towards the gate.

"Xiaoxue, where are you going?" President Sasaki saw the child sneaking out again, and immediately yelled loudly.

"I'm going to buy some snacks and I'll be right back."

Xia Long waved his hand casually and stepped into the corridor.

Soon, his figure disappeared.
