Just then, another gunshot rang out, followed by Qiu Hongsheng's voice, "You're right, we won't shoot you. But that's not because we're military personnel, but because we won't waste bullets on you! Our bullets are meant for killing zombies, not for shooting you cowardly lot who are too afraid to die! Now! Anyone who doesn't want to follow the new regulations, stand up! I want to see how many of you are unwilling!"
Upon hearing these words, there was a moment of silence, but then people started standing up one after another. Many were still watching and, seeing others stand, more followed suit.
The so-called bandwagon effect, nothing more than this. Some had been indecisive, but upon seeing more people stand, they subconsciously followed.
It was the psychology of the minority conforming to the majority. In their minds, with so many of them standing, would the military dare to go against their wishes? In the end, it would be the military who would have to compromise!
