Chapter 217: Speech
Passing through the cave, the trio entered a hall. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The hall is spectacular, the size of a football field and a half, shaped like a bowl with a platform for speeches at the bottom and a ring of elevated steps.
Tojo Yukawa secretly smacked his tongue, was this a natural formation or was it artificially hollowed out in the middle of the mountain? If so, how much work would this be, and how much would it cost?
Eiji Fukuyama said goodbye to Yukawa Toshiro and went to the area of the core group of the headquarters, while Yukawa Toshiro took Sakimoto Bridge to the location of the Chiba Prefecture branch.
There are no chairs in this hall, everyone sits on the elevated steps, and when viewed from above, it has a very good taste of the Colosseum.
Yukawa Toshiro also sat down, she reached out and stroked the "chair" under her, only to feel that the texture was very strange, smooth and round, as if wrapped in a slurry shell, the touch was cold, as if the stone had melted and solidified naturally.
Some kind of new technology?
She looked up again and looked around, and the Colosseum-like hall was not overly ornately decorated, and there were no strange sculptures in ordinary religions, but a simple style, except that stone was stone. There are electric lights on the top of the hall and on the walls, and the light is so abundant that if you don't go all the way into the mountain, you can hardly feel that you are in a cave, and there is no eerie feeling in a normal cave.
Slowly, the hall was full, and Tojo Yukawa was on a higher position, and it was full of black crows' heads as far as the eye could see, but it didn't look cluttered at all, everyone was sitting upright, and there was a standard two-fist distance between people - she looked down from above, and only saw the heads in front of her in a straight line to the bottom of the bowl.
This kind of neatness is very oppressive, and Yukawa Toshiro unconsciously adjusts his posture and tries to align with the person in front of him, so that the person behind him does not look like a straight line.
Again, this neatness made the atmosphere solemn and serious, and Toshiro Yukawa only felt that his mouth was dry, and he didn't even dare to talk to each other.
After the people were all together, today's protagonist also appeared, Maruko slowly walked to the bottom of the bowl along the side of the passage, slowly stood still, raised her little face to meet the eyes of countless stares at her, and then reached out and tapped her chest twice!
Yukawa Toshiro looked at Maruko, a little girl about ten years old, and was a little overwhelmed, what was the situation? Do you want to give a speech? The Holy Envoy is a ten-year-old child?
But the reaction of the people around her was much more fierce than hers, and everyone got up at the same time, clenching their fists and hitting their chests neatly, and suddenly there were two loud muffled noises in the entire hall.
Thousands of people stood up at the same time, and at the same time, the sound waves echoed in the hall endlessly, leaving Toshiro Yukawa stunned!
Toshiro Yukawa was stunned for a moment, then quickly jumped up, knocked twice, turned his head to meet Uesaki Motohashi's shocked gaze, and the two looked at each other...... The gods here can't be the gods of war, right? Why do the believers feel like they're in the army?
The balls turned their small bodies in the center of the bottom of the bowl and saluted in all directions, and then reached out and pressed down, and they didn't need any amplification equipment to carry enough internal force, so that the voice resounded throughout the hall, "Gentlemen, please take a seat!"
Everyone sat down at the same time, and the hall fell silent for an instant.
Maruko's face was serious, and he turned around at the bottom of the bowl and asked, "All of you come from different branches, and they are all excellent members of each branch, this time I will gather you together, and I will ask you a question on behalf of the Imperial God Venerable, seeking an answer......
After a pause, Maruko glanced at the audience, raised his hands and asked, "Gentlemen, why has Japan become the way it is now, and why is the situation so bad!"
It's a big question, and no one answers.
Maruko was not discouraged, his eyes searched the crowd, and after a while, he pointed: "Fukuyama, are you satisfied with the current Japan?"
Eiji Fukuyama stood up and said, "No, of course not satisfied!"
He still hasn't found a job, relying on the living allowance from the core group to barely make ends meet, if it weren't for the spiritual pillar of the Supreme Society, I'm afraid he would have been decadent to no one.
Maruko nodded four or five more people in a row, all of them shaking their heads, and none of them were satisfied with the status quo.
Maruko shouted again, "Is anyone here happy with the current Japan?"
The crowd in the hall was slightly commotion, this place is basically all people at the bottom of society, a small half of the people are unemployed, and a series of recent events in Japan also think that they are very disappointed, how can anyone be satisfied.
First, a voice whispered, "Not satisfied!"
Then several voices responded: "Not satisfied!"
There were more and more voices responding, and in the end the whole hall was "dissatisfied" with the sonic waves, which were deafening!
Maruko listened in silence for a long time, and did not say a word.
Everyone also slowly stopped, but the atmosphere was extremely suppressed, and even Yukawa Toshiro, an outsider, felt breathless!
Maruko kept her head down for a long time, as if she was pondering, and just when everyone was puzzled, she suddenly raised her head, waved her arms, and roared loudly: "Yes! We are not satisfied! Japan has failed in globalization, the aging population and declining birthrate are serious, the industrial structure is unbalanced, the unemployment rate has reached a new high, countless middle-class families have gone bankrupt overnight, some people can't even afford to eat, even their houses have been repossessed by the bank, their wives and children have been separated and they have nothing, and they have become homeless!"
Maruko roared loudly and asked everyone, "Why is this happening! Why is this happening?"
"Is it because the government is incompetent?" Then Maruko raised his arms and shouted: "No, it's because of the big business! All this is the fault of the big business! The government is just their puppet, and the big business is the one who controls everything in Japan, using their capital, using their so-called connections, and even using the law to control everything in Japan!"
"Is it normal for big business groups to manipulate politics, bribe politicians, disregard everyone's interests in order to get policy favors, manipulate the government to play with public opinion, seize public resources, and create unfair competition on a large scale?"
"Big conglomerates, which account for less than one millionth of the population, own 70 percent of the wealth, but who really creates it? Who is it? Where does the wealth we create go? The wealth we create has become the numbers on the Swiss bank accounts of the big conglomerates, the mansions of the big conglomerates in the United States, the hunting grounds of the big conglomerates in Africa, and the golf courses of the big conglomerates in the middle of the sea! Is this normal?"
Maruko changed his tone and said heavily: "We have endured natural disasters, but natural disasters are not terrible, what is terrible is man-made disasters! The big conglomerates use their despicable tricks to lie on us and suck blood, how long do we have to endure it?"
In the silence, Maruko exclaimed: "Are we going to watch all this continue? More than a hundred years ago, the big business and the government colluded to suck blood from our ancestors, and now they are still colluding with the government to suck blood from us, do we want to see them still like this more than a hundred years later?!"
Maruko pointed to the heads one by one and said: "You should be the masters of the country, and you should enjoy the wealth you have created, not the filthy sinners of those big corporations!
The more Maruko spoke, the louder it became, and the atmosphere at the scene became more and more fanatical, many people agreed with her words, felt that it was in their hearts, and couldn't help but start applauding hard!
Slowly the applause became one after another, as dense as a storm! Driven by the atmosphere of the scene, even Toshiro Yukawa couldn't help but clap his hands.
"Japan needs change, and change starts with us!" Maruko took a deep breath and pushed the Aihara family's plan to rise forward a big step: "Our goal in establishing the clan is to build an ideal society, eliminate all injustices and injustices, and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment! Now Japan needs to change, who will do it? Although we are weak, the god guides us!" We must have the courage to stand up and lead this change, we must form a political party, we will participate in this election, we will spread our ideas to the whole of Japan, and we will build the whole of Japan into an ideal society! Do you support or oppose it?!"
Maruko opened his arms and turned in circles and asked, "Do you agree to do this? Let's unite and really gain the power of the country, let the big corporations spit out the blood that has been sucked from us for more than a hundred years, and let them be punished! Let us truly become the masters of the country, create our own wealth, and enjoy our own wealth! Do you support or oppose it?!"
The members of the Supreme Council present raised their arms and shouted: "Support, support!" Many people burst into tears inexplicably, choked up and couldn't make a sound, but still waved their arms like crazy.
Maruko beckoned Kuroyama Sawako to come to the stage, and then shouted loudly: "The big business group controls everything, and no one speaks for us people, so we will form our own political party and make our own voice heard-let the whole of Japan understand our righteousness! Gentlemen, go back and tell everyone, and convey our beliefs to everyone! Please!"
Amid an excited cheer, Maruko exited the platform at the bottom of the bowl and disappeared into the darkness, and then burrowed into a small cave in the cave wall. On the stage, Commander Sawako put on the PA equipment and began to announce the party's program -- in a simple sentence, bring down the big conglomerates, and share the wealth with the whole people.
There is also the goal of the party -- to build an ideal society, which is even more a big pie drawn, and the devil knows what the ideal society will look like!
After the empty and bloody program goal was finished, Sawako began to announce the candidate selection plan, requiring that different regions be old enough, preferably a member of the core group!
Yukawa Toshiro watched Maruko disappear into the shadows, feeling that this time it was not in vain, and sighed to Sakimoto Bridge, "That little girl is a genius...... She's the 'Holy Messenger', isn't she?"
Thousands of people immediately agreed when a person spoke, and Toshiro Yukawa couldn't maintain a sense of independence, and the more he reminisced, the more he felt that Maruko made sense, and he felt that Maruko's personality was so charming!
Sakimoto Bridge hesitated: "Someone should have written a manuscript for her, otherwise how could a girl from an elementary school know so many things......"
Toshiro Yukawa felt that Maruko was very remarkable, and he admired her a little, and instinctively retorted: "Don't talk nonsense, those words are not memorized when you hear them, how can it be that you are memorizing a manuscript full of feelings!?"
And in the dark hole on the side of the hall, Aso Yuu was holding his forehead and looking at Maruko and sighed: "Maruko, the Aso family is also a member of the consortium, do you want to be defeated?"
Maruko grimaced, laughed and said, "How is it possible, Miss...... If we don't defeat the big consortium, how can the Aso Consortium become big! At most, it will not be called the Aso Foundation in the future, but how simple it is to change its name, and call it the Aso Big Company or something!"
Aso Yuu didn't believe that Maruko would harm her, so he smiled and changed the subject: "Maruko, this is a declaration of war against the big conglomerates, don't underestimate them, from now on, you have to be more careful!"
Maruko was full of confidence: "Don't worry, Miss, there will be no problem, we have already prepared!"
