The man, who looked to be in his fifties, suddenly collapsed. A bloody hole had appeared between his eyebrows, and blood was gushing out.
His eyes were still open, filled with a look of confusion.
"Ah—"
The people around them screamed in terror and hastily backed away.
"They killed someone!"
"The people from Meridia Base killed someone!"
Those few people shouted, never imagining the base personnel would strike without warning.
Not far away, hidden in the crowd, Stella Sterling's eyes glinted.
'These people from Meridia Base... their methods are certainly interesting.'
Faced with everyone's accusations, the two members of Meridia Base remained calm. They glanced at the people who were shouting hysterically and said coldly, "We at Meridia Base search far and wide for survivors, helping everyone out of a sense of kinship with our fellow countrymen. But we are not a charity."
