By eleven o'clock, the chanting from downstairs had gradually quieted down, evidently due to fatigue.
Shouting for over two hours, ordinary people couldn't really endure it.
That was only because it involved the protesters' own interests; otherwise, people would have stopped shouting long ago...
Wang Ye set down his coffee cup and, smiling, said, "It's about time to go down and talk to them."
Grezlov and Rilinov smiled knowingly, and the three of them stood up together.
The two of them were to accompany Wang Ye downstairs to face the protesting masses.
Now, the personnel maintaining order at the small square below were no longer the policemen who were there at the beginning but troops directly dispatched from the Ministry of Internal Affairs by Shao Yigu!
Although the policemen were somewhat displeased, they dared not show any dissatisfaction on their faces; they obediently stepped aside and moved to the perimeter to maintain order.
