Genshin Impact: Reject Camera, Replace Traveler

534. Door-to-door publicity

Gu Chen continued:

"I just discussed this with the instructors of the Qianyan Army, and they particularly agree with this grand trial and execution.

After discussion, we set the date for the grand trial and execution for three days later.

During these three days, I will dispatch a large number of Thousand Rocks Army to visit the people on the island door to door and inform them of the trial and execution.

With such a large publicity campaign, I'm sure there will be a lot of people coming to watch the trial and execution."

After hearing what Gu Chen said, Coral Palace Xinhai and Wulang no longer wanted to say anything.

It may seem a bit bullying, but...

If you do something wrong, you must take responsibility for it. If you stand at attention, you will be punished. This is the natural law!

After all, it was the rebels who released the evil spirit in the first place.

After all, the hundreds of thousands of innocent lives lost due to the worship of the god should be blamed on the rebels on Haizhi Island.

Both Coral Palace Xinhai and Goro are very clear about this, and they know that the responsibility cannot be shirked.

Following Gu Chen's words, Coral Palace's thoughts became more and more profound.

Suddenly, she made a decision:

"Lord Gu Chen.

After the trial and execution, I will go on stage and apologize."

Gu Chen was slightly stunned:

"Huh? You want to go on stage and apologize?"

Coral Palace's heart was firm:

"good.

By then, won’t there be many people from Bayun Island coming to watch the trial and the execution?

Although I don't think they will forgive me, I still have to apologize!

When the time comes, I will go on stage and sincerely apologize to the victims and their families on behalf of Haizhi Island and the resistance forces!

Looking at the determined look on Coral Palace's face, Gu Chen suddenly remembered a word: the spirit of craftsmanship.

At the same time, he imagined a scene in his mind:

Poor little Xin Hai was standing alone on the stage, with countless reporters carrying cameras and long guns below, and the cameras were flashing endless flashes, which made it difficult for Xin Hai to open his eyes.

In such an environment and under great pressure, Xinhai on the stage bowed sincerely to the audience and apologized sincerely to all the people through the media.

The attitude is very good, but...

As we all know, their so-called craftsman spirit is:

He just apologized but didn't correct his mistakes, and he wasn't even willing to take responsibility.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen felt a little weird:

"Xinhai, you might have to face the wrath of countless people on Bayun Island. They really won't forgive you. You better think carefully."

Coral Palace's heart became serious again:

"I figured it out."

Gu Chen then said:

"But……

Uh... I'm not trying to kick someone when they're down.

What I want to say is, with such a big incident and such a big responsibility, you can’t just go on stage and apologize and be done with it, right?

You guys on Haizhi Island, don't you have to compensate the people on Bayun Island?"

Gu Chen's words made the forced smile on Coral Palace Xinhai's face look much more miserable:

"Your Excellency, if the people of Bayun Island can forgive our Haizhi Island to a certain extent, I am willing to compensate them no matter what the cost.

but……

As you know, due to the sanctification of the land, the land on our Haizhi Island is barren and basically has no output.

Given these resource and environmental conditions, it's already difficult for us to feed the local people of Haizhi Island, so how can we compensate the people of Bayun Island?"

Gu Chen's mind turned:

“Maybe there is a way.

Don't worry, the situation won't always be this bad.

The situation on Haizhi Island is indeed rather difficult now, but I believe that Haizhi Island will definitely improve in the future and will gradually prosper.

When you have the ability to compensate, you can properly compensate the people of Bayun Island. Just keep this in mind."

Looking at Gu Chen's somewhat meaningful expression, Coral Palace's heart seemed to have grasped something, but also seemed to have grasped nothing.

Although he had a vague premonition in his heart, Coral Palace was afraid that this premonition was just wishful thinking.

Looking directly into Gu Chen's eyes, Xiao Xinhai opened his mouth but ultimately did not ask. He kept this extravagant hope hidden in his heart.

In this way, the series of events including the trial and execution of the radical forces of the resistance army and the Fatui, as well as the apology of Coral Palace Xinhai afterwards, were completely finalized.

Before I knew it, three days had passed.

During these three days, the Qianyan Army did indeed follow Gu Chen's instructions and carried out island-wide publicity throughout Bayun Island, letting the people on the island know about the grand trial and execution.

In fact, when the people on Bayun Island first heard the news, they were not very interested.

The war finally ended, and the evil spirits on the island were gone. They are now in the process of post-disaster reconstruction.

We are working hard to rebuild our homes and prepare for our current lives.

In this situation, every citizen is very busy and full of hope, hoping that their future life will be peaceful.

We're so busy now, who would have time to go and watch the fun?

Just try the rebels and execute them, what does it have to do with them?

However, in the process of promoting the trial and executions, the Qianyan Army, following Gu Chen's instructions, revealed to the people on Bayun Island that a considerable part of the responsibility for the tragic deaths of countless of their relatives and friends should be attributed to the resistance army.

Therefore, in this grand trial, the people of Bayun Island should be seated with the victims' families! They should be present to watch the execution!

After hearing this, the people of Bayun Island could no longer ignore it.

what?

So many people died on Bayun Island before, and a considerable part of the responsibility should be placed on the heads of the resistance army! ?

Could it be that the Qianyan Army is referring to the war between the resistance army and the shogunate army?

This is indeed true. Many of their relatives and friends died in the war.

From this perspective, it is correct to say that the rebels bear a large part of the responsibility.

But...something doesn't seem right.

Because when it comes to war, it's hard to say who is right or wrong.

The shogunate has never heard of any major trial of the shogunate army, let alone prosecuting anyone for war crimes. Why is the resistance army holding a major trial?

Could it be that……

Is this trial not about the innocent lives taken by the rebels during the war? Is it about other crimes?

What other charges are there?

It can’t be...

Following this line of speculation, many smart people on Bayun Island associated it with the disaster caused by the evil spirit on the island.

That's right.

They lost so many relatives and friends. Apart from those who died in the war, most of them died from the invasion of evil spirits.

If one thinks in this direction, smart people will inevitably think that this disaster of evil spirits may be related to the rebels?

Otherwise, why would the Qianyan Army try the rebels?

Why would they reveal that a considerable part of the responsibility for the deaths of their relatives and friends lies with the resistance?

After figuring this out, the people of Bayun Island, who had vague guesses about this in their hearts, temporarily put aside the work of rebuilding their homes and went to Tengdou Fort on this day, intending to watch this great trial.
