Chapter 724: The Executioner

Iron Hand was the nickname he later used to be the Enforcer, and before that, he was referred to as "Subject A0058".

Of course, the designation of Subject A0058 disappeared from this world along with the lockdown of Project Horus's archives...... If it weren't for Lei Yun having the super high authority key given to her by Thunder, she would never have been able to see these materials.

With the suspension of Project Horus, Iron Hand disappeared for several years, and when he reappeared, he had become a lowest-level executor in a remote shelter of the Lei family.

At that time, the nuclear war had just passed, and the order inside the Vault was still relatively chaotic, and there were people everywhere who wanted to take advantage of the troubled times to "change their lives and change their fate" - within the first three months to a year of the Vault era, that was the period when rebellions broke out most frequently.

At that time, the job of the iron hand happened to be to cooperate with the army to suppress the rioters.

He was known as the Iron Hand, partly because of his habit of using heavy weapons and always wearing a pair of metal handguards, but even more because of his brutal personality and his unwillingness to show mercy to the rioters - there was a saying in his shelter: "It is better to be captured by the army than to fall into the hands of the 'Iron Hand'".

According to rough statistics, during the four months of taking office, the number of executions by the Iron Hand was about 300 to 400, with an average of one or two people killed every day.

And this is only the number of people he "executed with his own hands", as for the more captured rioters, almost all of them, except for the necessary interrogation, will be sent directly to the execution ground to be shot, which has caused strong dissatisfaction among the heads of local mining companies.

Directly below the shelter was a large cup cuprite mine, which was a lot of money, but in addition to copper, there was also a part of the sulfur-containing ore that produced toxic gases, and the mine was perennially concentrated with extremely high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide and other substances, which were extremely expensive to mine.

Mining with machinery requires a lot of materials and energy, which will not only greatly reduce the profits of mining, but also if there is an accident that damages some precision equipment, and perhaps the mining company needs to pay a lot of money.

However, this problem does not exist in the aspect of manual mining, which is less efficient, but the cost is almost negligible.

Most of the residents in the middle of the shelter are reluctant to work in the mine, so the main source of miners is the poor and black households...... As well as prisoners.

As Iron Hand insisted on the outright execution of all the rioters, the prison in the vault was often empty, and without prisoners, the mining company naturally lost a large number of cheap laborers.

The head of the mining company came to the door, but Iron Hand answered him only one sentence.

"Send these prisoners to the mines, and you're not afraid that the mines will once again become a den for the Resistance?"

Iron Hand's words are not unreasonable, due to the special location of the mine, except for the miners who go down to mine, the average guard is not willing to approach the wellhead at all - even if he wears a mask that can filter the breath, the strong smell of rotten eggs will still drill into the nose.

There were no riots in the mines, and on that occasion the miners killed more than a dozen guards in one fell swoop, ransacked a food warehouse outside the mine, and hung the body of the keeper above the store's door.

Fortunately, because hydrogen sulfide is extremely flammable, not only are open flames prohibited in the mines, but even the guards are not equipped with firearms, and the only weapons in the hands of this mob are the short knives and iron rods that were snatched from the guards, which were quickly suppressed by the army and the enforcers.

In this crackdown, Iron Hands shot all 203 miners involved in the riots without informing the mining company, which is almost two-thirds of all miners in the entire mining area, and there were so many miners at once that the mining company failed to meet the predetermined mining targets for several months.

……

"Resistance den?! Those people can't even eat, what strength do they have to rebel? Last time, we were just careless......" The person in charge didn't finish his sentence before he was kicked by the iron hand, slammed through the door and fell out heavily.

According to the accompanying examination report, the guy had 34 bones all over his body, multiple organs were ruptured, and his spine was dislocated...... All in all, the rest of his life will only be spent in bed.

"The kick of the fifth-level evolutionary didn't kick an ordinary person to death, it seems that he has already shown mercy to his subordinates......" Lei Yun pouted and continued to look down.

With a kick in the head of a grassroots company, Iron Hand was not only not punished, but was quickly transferred to another larger shelter and became a high-level executor.

As for when he joined the organization, it is not mentioned in the file, but according to Lei Yun's judgment, I am afraid that he was already a member of the organization before he became the "Iron Hand".

The high-ranking executor of the Iron Hand did not last long before he disappeared from the world, and the Lei family claimed to the public that it was an acute radiation sickness, and the rescue was ineffective and died, but in fact it was because he was urgently transferred back to the organization's headquarters.

It was a highly classified mission, and even the Lei family had no right to know the specific content of the mission - the text file about Iron Hand came to an abrupt end here, and the rest was all about some photos related to him.

Among these photographs, the most numerous are of him holding a pistol, aiming the muzzle of the gun at the prisoners kneeling on the ground with his hands tied behind his back, wearing blindfolds, and even filming the moment when the trigger is pulled—the muzzle of the gun, the bullet that drills under the back of the prisoner's head, and the bullet that comes out of the mouth...... And the splatters of blood.

"This guy ...... Do you really like to kill? Lei Yun frowned, she carefully looked at the other party's expression in the photo, she found that whether it was raising the gun or pulling the trigger, this guy's face was full of joy and sadness, and she couldn't see what he was thinking in his heart at all.

Many executioners, at the moment of execution, either had a hideous smile on their faces, or they were numb with indifference, and a few would show a trace of pity, but like him, Lei Yun had never seen it.

If I had to define his expression, it would probably only be ...... word "serious".
