Candy City is quiet in the early morning.

After last night's ****, almost all the residents in the city have not slept peacefully all night, especially after hearing that broadcast, everyone is worried, for fear that a group of heavily armed big men will rush to the house at any time and take them away like chickens.

Just as it was dawning, a radio with Calvin's voice rang out again, informing the residents of Candy City to go to the sugar mill campus.

So suspicious residents took to the streets, slowly walking towards the sugar mill park, talking to each other, not knowing what they were going to do.

But soon, they knew.

The doors of the sugar mill campus were open, and Calvin's small army of hundreds of men stood neatly inside, separated from the small army and the residents of Candy City, a wooden platform that had been erected overnight, and the distinctive smell of freshly sawn wood was in the air.

It was a gallows.

Two ropes hung from a horizontal beam, and two children knelt underneath, their heads covered with sacks, but from their clothes it was clear that one on the left was a boy, and the other on the right was a girl, and the girl's shoulders twitched, and I don't know how long she had been crying.

Next to the two children stood a shirtless white man, with a disgusting look of heavy yellow chest hair, his full face of meat, his red nose, and his eyes bulging out like dead fish.

He's the executioner to be executed.

The inhabitants of Candy City had already guessed what was going to happen, and none of them wanted to save the two poor children, but there was nothing they could do but watch them hanged.

Calvin said on the radio that if the sun rose and Schultz couldn't be seen, then he would hang Adu and Anna, even if they were children, and this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened in Candy City.

However, despite the occurrence of several times, the residents still could not get used to this cruel, barbaric, and inhumane behavior, and some residents who could not bear it dared to look straight ahead, and some even lowered their heads and wept, and suppressed cries rang out in the crowd.

……

Schultz is coming.

The cry turned into an exclamation, and the crowd made way for Schultz, who had come for the money, and Schultz walked to the front of the crowd with the same face as usual, where he could already see the nose hairs that came out of the executioner's nostrils.

Even though Schultz had not been in Candy City for long, many of these residents could still be called by name, not to mention the fact that he had led people to seize the arms depot last night and nearly overthrew Calvin's rule.

Just a little bit!

Some of the residents who participated in last night's operation clenched their fists, regretting that the operation had fallen short, and also blaming themselves for being frightened after hearing the news that Calvin was not dead, and throwing away the weapons they had so hard to pick up.

……

"I didn't expect you to dare to come."

But a voice was like a bucket of cold water, poured on the heads of those who gritted their teeth and stared, and extinguished their fighting spirit and their hopes.

Calvin, the man who controlled the entire Candy City, finally appeared.

He wears an olive-colored beret and a smart camouflage military uniform, tall and burly, with no expression on his unsmiling face, a wide head, a large face, and a beard, and is a standard white tough guy.

He looked at Schultz, and Schultz was looking at him.

"Why didn't I dare to come," Schultz said, "and there are no places in this world that I dare not go, and there are no people I dare not meet." ”

Schultz's tone was so arrogant that Calvin, who rarely laughed, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and he pointed to Schultz a dozen steps away:

"You dare to find trouble on my territory, I think you are impatient."

"Arrest him!"

It was not Calvin who spoke, but an old black man standing next to him, dressed as a butler, with gray eyebrows and hair, bent over his back, and ordering several strong men in military uniforms next to him.

He was Stephen, Calvin's most biting dog.

A big black man with a height of more than 1.9 meters took a step and strode towards Schultz, who was much shorter than him, and in three or two steps in front of Schultz, he went up with a grappling move and stretched out to Schultz's shoulder, which seemed to be to subdue Schultz cleanly.

It can be seen from the movements of the starting hand that he is indeed a master, and his movements are not muddy and unusual, not to mention Schultz, who seems to have no hand-to-hand combat ability, even if he gets the madman Turtledove over, he may not be the opponent of this black man in the case of hard fighting.

It's a pity that this big black man seems to be ...... Seems to be drunk?

As soon as his hands touched Schultz's body, the whole person softened inexplicably, his hands were soft, his legs were also soft, and finally even his body was soft, and he fell at Schulz's feet with a "poof", his eyes were wide open, and he could only let the muscles of his body twitch unconsciously.

……

What's going on?

None of the people present expected the situation to develop in this strange direction, and the turtledove hidden in the crowd directly opened its mouth wide, and its jaw was about to fall to the ground, and the little worm next to him was also shocked.

"Catcher, catcher?"

The little insect is more knowledgeable than the turtledove, and she knows that in today's world, there are not only "madmen" like the turtledove and "eagle eyes" like herself, but also many other types of "evolutionaries", one of which is quite rare and is called "catcher".

For some reason, the Catcher is able to release an astonishing amount of brain waves, which affect the neural activity of surrounding life, causing it to lose control of its body in an instant.

Worm had seen a document from Galahad that studied the abilities of the "Catcher", and she vaguely remembered that it contained terms such as pineal gland, synapses, and neurotransmitters, but she still couldn't understand what the process was.

Later, she asked about the origin of Galahad's document, and Galahad said that by chance, he came across a mysterious project in Wings of Liberty called "Psychic Shock", and that the document was related to this project, the details of which are unknown, and that he has been investigating it more deeply.

Now that I think about it, the "unknown research object" mentioned in the document should be the man named Schultz in front of me.
