I'm not a savior

Chapter 33 "The Crowd"

Zuo Si rubbed his temples.

Although he felt that something was wrong after hearing Karin's description on the boat, he didn't expect that it would happen to Karin.

In Zuo Si's previous history, such things happened more than once, and the most famous one was probably the "witch trials" that lasted quite a long time.

Also because of ignorance, ordinary people have erroneous perceptions of plagues and diseases. They think that as long as those so-called "witches" are burned, the diseases can be cured.

Of course, this is a rather stupid behavior.

But the situation here can be described as more than stupid.

During the witch trials, the scariest thing was not "killing innocent people indiscriminately", but "turning into a witch at some point".

That trial gave ordinary people the right to report. An ordinary person can report other people around him at will, which may lead to some people being sent to the gallows because of some quarrels or some interests. .

That is the power of human "language" and the so-called "crowd". No matter how smart people are, they will reduce their IQ in the group, and the effect is remarkable.

So after hearing Karin say that the right to report had been activated in the city, Zuo Si knew that something was wrong, and ended up catching up with such an incident when he came back.

"Why……"

Karin murmured weakly and desperately there, Zuo Si remained silent, but he could indeed answer.

why?

Because the people are ignorant and don't know the source of the infection, they are afraid of the unknown, so they can only act stupidly.

why?

Because you took away all your elite soldiers this time, the foundation in your city was weakened, and the right to speak was almost reduced to the lowest point.

why?

Because of the spread of rumors and malicious injuries, the people in the city have formed a collective. They don't need "this is true", they just need "I think this is true".

That's the scariest thing.

But it was too late, Karin's parents were dead, and Karin's sister was arrested.

The hero becomes the villain, and there is no turning back.

Zuo Si sighed.

Silence hovered among the crowd, and after four or five minutes, Karin slowly raised her head.

She looked at the boy in front of her, her eyes seemed to be dead.

"You said, my sister is still alive?"

"Hmm..." The boy nodded, and he shuddered subconsciously. At that moment, he seemed to see a trace of deep hatred in the army commander's eyes.

After getting this answer, she slowly got up, turned her head, and saluted Zuo Si and the others.

"I'm very sorry for letting everyone see something unpleasant." She bowed deeply, then raised her head, as if something was missing in her eyes, "I don't need your help here anymore. Guys, please go back .”

She said so, then turned around resolutely, and walked out of the alley.

But before she could take two steps, a man's voice came from behind her.

"What? Are you planning to go to the prison alone to rescue your sister?"

Karin stopped slowly, she turned her head slightly, and looked behind her.

There, the only man in casual and strange clothes put down his hands rubbing his temples and looked at her.

Karin didn't speak.

She still remembered that the man on the boat said that bad things would happen after listening to her words—maybe he had the ability to see things.

But now Karin is not in the mood.

"Let's not mention whether you can succeed, even if you succeed, so what can you do." The man's face was expressionless, he neither sympathized nor disdainful, but said very calmly: "Even if you Your sister was rescued, but you still bear the name of witch, and so does your sister. Everyone here will still curse and abuse you, thinking that you are the culprit of everything."

"Then what can I do!" Karin turned her head and glared angrily. She stared fiercely at Zuo Si, and her tone became unfriendly.

She was hysterical, almost roaring: "They did this to me! To my family! I went to sea to find a solution to the problem! My family died here! If that's the case, this shitty place might as well be over soon! I just want my sister !"

Her voice was sharp and piercing, and the boy on one side trembled all over, subconsciously backing away.

But Zuo Si still had such a look of neither joy nor sorrow.

"Leave this matter to me." Zuo Si looked at Karin in front of him for a while, and then said seriously, "Of course I can rescue your sister, it's not difficult."

Zuo Si's tone slowly rose. When he said this, his voice seemed to be full of unspeakable confidence.

That doesn't seem like a promise, but an exposition of an established fact.

Karin's eyes fluctuated after hearing such words.

"If it can be done, then Karin Novum's life will belong to Your Excellency in the future." Karin said so, and she slowly lowered her head.

"What do I want your life for?" Zuo Si rolled his eyes slightly, then he turned his head and scanned his teammates, "Does any of you have Ling money? Lend me some."

"I still have it here, you can take it and use it as you like." DOOM transferred a lot of money to Zuo Si, Zuo Si glanced at DOOM, although the hunk still had a helmet on his head, no expression could be seen, But Zuo Si could feel the anger and sympathy of this tough man.

He is also a warrior, and he has been on an expedition for a long time, and he has also experienced the death of his family (the rabbit Daisy) when he returned home-but DOOM is still much better than Karin, because it was the devil who killed his rabbit instead of Humans, but it was the people she protected who killed Karin's family.

DOOM feels that if such a thing happens to him, he will probably lose confidence in human beings, so he has unusual sympathy for Karin, and he also understands how much Karin has been burdened.

It's a pity that DOOM himself doesn't know how to deal with this kind of thing. What he is better at is blowing up everything, not intrigue.

Zuo Si smiled at DOOM after receiving the Ling money from DOOM, then contacted Luke's store, and started looking for what he wanted.

After taking these things, Zuo Si snorted coldly.

Small sample, I can't fool you yet.
