In September 1966, too many unthinkable things happened in Europe and the United States.

The powerful figures in British politics have fallen one after another, and the entire Fenton government has already experienced a serious crisis, and the hijacking of the "Galaxy" has only exacerbated such a crisis.

The situation in the United States is also not optimistic, the financial crisis that has spread throughout the United States has intensified, the American economy has been on the verge of collapse, and the subsequent "Lucy Death Incident" and "Kasri College Incident" have completely ignited the already acute racial problem in the United States.

Instead of achieving the desired results, the "Kasri College Incident" was attacked by the Auckland City police, but instead caused the Auckland City Government to receive the most severe criticism from the public. In this incident, 33 black people were killed and 6 seriously injured, and the white hostages of the "Kasri Academy" mysteriously disappeared along with other black people. Mayor Duira and Director Douglas were so anxious that they could not wait to interrogate the arrested blacks, but they received nothing.

A black man who was interrogated said contemptuously under the beating: "You can beat me to death, but you can't get any information from me, Bobby is dead, but Huey can still lead us to continue fighting, the anger of the black man has been ignited, are you afraid, white man?" ”

Duira and Douglas did feel a kind of fear, a real fear. They had a vague premonition that a terrible storm was taking place in Auckland.

Yes, they have no premonition wrong. The "Kasri College Incident" ignited the roar of all black people in Auckland, who chose to go on strike and march in support of the members of the "Black Panther Party", which dealt a heavy blow to the already dire economic situation in Auckland. After the heroic death of Bobby and his companions. The fighting enthusiasm of the entire black people in Oakland was completely ignited, and the armed riot began!

"Take Bobby. Fight with the name of Syr"!

In the city of Auckland, Bobby. Ciel's name shone like lightning on every black man. He was seen as a hero to all blacks, and his influence even surpassed that of Martin. Luther. Gold!

The police in Oakland have cracked down on the blacks at Kasri College, but they are now facing even more blacks who are armed to revolt!

Duira and Douglas were angrily blamed by the hostages' families, and if it weren't for their recklessness, perhaps such a tragedy would not have happened. And Oakland News reporter Brown made the hostage's family even more sad and angry in a subsequent article:

"Mayor Duira and Mayor Douglas had the best chance of saving this crisis. But the so-called dignity of white people made them flatly reject this opportunity. Bobby, the leader of the 'Black Panther Party'. Cill once walked out of the Kasri Academy and demanded an equal negotiation, but was flatly rejected by the arrogant Mayor Duira and the equally arrogant Director Douglas, leaving the black people of the Kasri Academy with no choice. They can only assert their fragile dignity in the most extreme ways. The tragedy can be successfully defused by the joint efforts of Mayor Duila and Director Douglas...... I heard the mournful weepings of the hostages' families, and I saw the grief of all the husbands and mothers who lost their children...... We should reflect on how to carry out this kind of racial discrimination to the end. Or do you want to make some changes that American society must make......

'From January 1, 1863. Whoever is a slave to others in any state where the people of the country is still rebelling against the United States, or in a specified part of a state, shall be free for all then and thereafter; The executive branch of the government of the public state, including the navy and army authorities, will recognize and guarantee the liberty of these persons and will refrain from any repression of them when they or any of them make any effort for their own liberty...... So now I, the President of the United States, Abraham. Lincoln. To be authorized as Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States during the period of armed rebellion against the authorities of the Government of the United States, as an appropriate and necessary strategic measure to suppress the said mutiny. And hereby on January 1, 1863, for a period of one hundred days from the date of the first foregoing, it is hereby publicly declared for this purpose that the present opposition to the United States shall be made in the following states, and in the following parts of certain states, and their peoples...... For the aforementioned ends, I use my authority to formally command and proclaim the eternal liberty of all those who are slaves in the aforementioned states, and in the aforementioned parts of certain states; The Government of the United States, including the Navy and Army authorities, will recognize and maintain the freedoms of those persons. I now command these people who have been declared free not to commit any transgression except in necessary self-defence; I exhort them that, wherever possible, they should faithfully work for a fair wage......

Everyone knows that this is President Lincoln's 'Emancipation Proclamation', and in 1863, our country had granted these blacks freedom and equal human rights, but after so many years, the status of blacks has not been solved much, and racial discrimination has become more and more serious. Should we really do that? Is it really fair for us to do this to people who don't have the same skin color as us?

Someone has to be held accountable for this sad event, the missing hostages have to be found, and I don't think Mayor Duila or Director Douglas can do it......

Time is running out for us, and perhaps another leader of the 'Black Panther Party', Huey. Newton was becoming more and more agitated, and perhaps he had decided to stop being patient and avenge his dead brothers. At least, that's what blacks call their fellows, 'brothers'!

White people in Oakland, white people in America, I think all of us have changed to reflect on our own behavior......"

If the story had come before, not only would it not have attracted much attention, but Brown would have been rebuked by the white men as "just another sensationalist journalist...... However, after the "Kasri Academy Incident". The situation in Oakland and the United States has changed very significantly......

Outside the city government building, countless family members protested loudly waving the Oakland Newspaper, which carried Brown's article, demanding the immediate resignation of Mayor Duila and Director Douglas. The city government is required to find a way to deal with the hostages immediately, and their families are required to return to them immediately and in the shortest possible time.

Duira and Douglas were at a loss for what to do with the angry crowd, and they could use force against the blacks, but the protesters outside were all whites, and some of them were very influential whites, such as Mr. Myers.

Duira said he was facing one of the biggest crises and challenges since he entered politics...... He expects Douglas to give him some good advice. But Douglas, like himself, couldn't do anything at all......

The "Black Panthers" and the hostages disappeared mysteriously, and no matter how much the police searched, they could not find any trace of them. And just a few hours ago. President William's phone call came again, in which he reiterated his grave concern about the events in Oakland and sternly demanded that the missing hostages be eliminated immediately. Otherwise. The White House will have to think about sending troops into ...... Duira knew very well that if the army did get in, it would be extremely troublesome......

"Haven't you thought of a solution yet, Mr. Director?" Duira asked, annoyed.

Douglas shook his head helplessly: "The police have all been dispatched, but those don't seem to exist in Oakland City at all, and we can't find them." ”

"Is that what a police chief would answer?" Duira walked back and forth anxiously, "No, no, I don't need such an answer, I need to find those damn guys right away!" ”

The mayor's words sounded very light. But how can Douglas do it?

"There's another black riot." At this time, the phone on the desk rang, and Duira picked it up and paused for a moment. Then he said helplessly: "This is the third one that has happened today, and there is a riot on the horizon, Mr. Director Douglas, please tell me, what should we do now?" ”

Hell, you're the mayor of this city, not me! Douglas muttered in his heart, but his expression tried his best to remain calm: "Mr. Mayor, believe me, everything will have a solution, and it is only a temporary difficulty. We will be able to find the missing hostages, and we will be able to settle all the riots......"

It's nonsense, but Mayor Duira can't get angry, because he has to rely on Douglas at this critical moment.

"Mr. Mayor, Speaker Obuck and Mr. Terry, Independent Attorney, have requested to see you immediately."

At this time, Duira's secretary interrupted their negotiations, and Duira was stunned for a moment, Speaker Obuck? Independent Prosecutor Terry? What are they doing here? But Duira quickly calmed down: "Let them in." ”

After Obuck and Terry entered, Duira regained the smile on her face, "Mr. Speaker, Mr. Independent Prosecutor, welcome to you. ”

"Mayor Duira, the situation is very serious." There was no smile on Obuck's face: "There have been many more violent incidents, and the whole of Oakland is about to become a battlefield, I really want to know what to do in such a critical situation?" ”

"Of course, Mr. Speaker, it's just a small incident of street violence, and we'll deal with it soon, so you don't have to worry about it." ”

"You call these petty incidents of violence?" Obuck stared at the mayor of Oakland in disbelief: "Do you really think that nothing will happen?" But from what I know, the blacks were armed, and they even fired at the police who went to crack down. Chief Douglas, you're here too, how many police officers are there in Oakland, how many blacks are there? Ah, you can say we still have the National Guard, but the blacks in the National Guard are also rioting...... If I were to say that the situation is spiraling out of control, the Council has entrusted me with asking you for the most truthful answer......"

"The truest answer is that the situation is still under our control...... Duira does not want to show her weakness at this time: "At most, a week will be in which the situation will return to normal." The who rioted will soon be completely suppressed, please go back and tell the respected councillors. They don't have any need to worry about it at all. ”

Obuck snorted coldly: "I hope you can do what you say, but what about those hostages who were kidnapped?" When are you going to get them out? ”

This was the most troublesome thing for Duira, and he forced a smile: "A week, I can also promise you a week to rescue those hostages safely." ”

"I think you're lying, Mr. Mayor." Obuck retorted mercilessly: "You have no clue so far, where the 'Black Panther Party' has gone. Where are those hostages now? You don't know at all, you ignore the pleas of the people of Auckland, ignore the protests of the hostages' families. All you can think about is how to kill all the black people, Mr. Duira, that's how you're messing around Oakland! ”

"Watch your words, Mr. Speaker. You're talking to a mayor! Duira said unhappily.

"And you're talking to a speaker." Obuck's voice was so cold: "We have the right to keep a city safe. We have a right to know the truth, we have a right to ensure the safety of our people, and you can't keep the promises you made when you campaigned, and you have to be accountable to all of them. ”

Duira looked at him with a sarcastic look on her face, "So what do you want to do?" Remove me? Mr. Speaker? ”

Surprisingly, Obuck didn't say anything more, and then Terry, an independent prosecutor who had been silent, suddenly said: "Mr. Mayor Duira, do you know Mr. Wheeler from the Willer Group?" ”

Duira's eyelids twitched: "Of course I know, I am very good friends with him." He also funded me during the campaign. This is something that everyone knows. ”

"Of course, of course I know that." Terry was indifferent: "So. I would like to ask you, after you were elected mayor of Oakland, did you use your privileges for the benefit of the Weller Group? Have you ever taken an undeserved advantage from Mr. Wheeler? ”

Duira's heart suddenly became extremely nervous...... Damn, how did they get to the bottom of their relationship with Mr. Wheeler......

He tried his best to sound calmer: "It's an insult to my personal reputation, maybe there have been some undeserved mistakes in my work, but from the moment I sat in this position, I have served the city with all my heart." I have never betrayed my oath, and I have never taken anything that is not mine. Any insult to my personal reputation will be brought to court. ”

"That's your authority, Mr. Mayor Duira." Terry said coldly, "But I must remind you that Mr. Willer has become a tainted witness, and we will prosecute you. ”

Duira was completely stunned......

"Please take care of yourself, Mr. Mayor." As he left his office, Obuck said, "Any attempt to destroy this beautiful city of Oakland is intolerable, any attempt to harm the American people will be held accountable, the Oakland City Council will initiate your impeachment, and you will receive the fairest trial possible!" ”

The Speaker and the independent prosecutor are gone, leaving only the dumb Duira and the equally dumb Douglas. They had no idea that things would take such a dramatic turn...... What should they do now? What can they do now? Duira and Douglas's minds went blank...... With the parliament going to impeach Duira, the prosecutor going to indict Duira, is that the end of everything......

Duira unwillingly put her eyes on Douglas: "We're going to have an accident, something big." Douglas, there's only one way now, take out Terry and Willer, they're the only ones who have our evidence! ”

"No, Mr. Mayor, it's not us, it's you." Douglas actually said at this critical time: "I haven't received any stolen money, I won't kill for you, no, absolutely not!" I have a mistake, I will resign, and I will be investigated, and my matter will be punished at best, and not like you, maybe a long life behind bars is waiting for you there. ”

Duira could not have imagined that his allies would say such a thing, and even less could have imagined that Douglas would abandon him at this time. He roared angrily, but it didn't affect Douglas in the slightest:

"Mr. Mayor, I think what you are doing now should not be yelling, but thinking about how to deal with the prosecutor's allegations, I am very worried about you, ah, there are many things waiting for me in Oakland, I am leaving."

With that, he really left here in a hurry.

"Traitor, traitor!" Duira shouted, but there was nothing he could do. Even Douglas betrayed himself, so what choice did he have? Is it really like this in the dock? No, Duira is not reconciled.

But he didn't have much power left for him to choose! (To be continued......)
