Chapter 181: Sabre Rattling
"Admiral, do you think something has happened recently that has caused tension in the city?" Helena asked after a moment of thought.
Nodding his head, Yan Feng said, "I think so, the atmosphere in the city is really not normal now, the white people are more or less wary of us along the way, while the colored people are much more friendly, and it is really strange to see that we are all greeting each other with a smile on our faces." β
The raider put his finger to his chin and asked, "Why don't I go and ask the hotel staff with Helena?" β
"Well, that's fine, you go and ask for information, I'll wait in the room with the children, and you, who are also white, shouldn't make the people in the hotel too wary."
Yan Feng thought about it for a moment and agreed to the raider's proposal.
After the two wedding ships walked out of the room, Yan Feng began to take the little ones to pack their luggage, and several people also looked at the night view of the city outside the window and sighed.
Half an hour later, when Yan Feng was telling Lele and Sanxiao the story of Cinderella, Helena opened the door with a solemn face and walked in with the raider.
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, he knew that his conjecture was probably right, so Zhengse asked, "How is it?" Sure enough, something has happened recently, right? β
"Hmm." The two looked at each other, and in the end, it was Helena who stepped forward to explain.
"We just asked the waiter at the hotel that just two days ago, there was a large-scale clash in the city of Navi between members of the Ku Klux Klan and anti-white supremacists."
"What!" Although he had been prepared in his heart, Yan Feng was still taken aback after actually hearing it.
Then he asked with a serious face, "What's going on?" Helena, tell me more about it. β
Seeing that the three of them were about to get down to business, Ayanami took the initiative to pull Odin and Sukhbaatar to the second bedroom of the presidential suite, and the two supply ships were also sensible, and quietly followed Ayanami's sister all the way into the room.
And Lele, who was originally standing on Yan Feng's shoulder, didn't seem to plan to listen to the three of them talk about these serious topics, so he simply took out his special pillow from Yan Feng's luggage and flew to the bed to sleep.
"In recent years, as the Ku Klux Klan Party has grown stronger in the eastern cities of the country, life has become increasingly difficult for people of color, and this time they marched to the governor's mansion to demand a pledge from the governor not to squeeze the living space of people of color."
Helena began to explain in detail to Yan Feng after the little ones left one after another.
Yan Feng asked suspiciously, "Isn't it very common in the Miqi Country, how can this lead to conflicts between the two sides." β
Helena shook her head, "Simple demonstrations are naturally very common, but it happened that during this anti-white supremalist march, the Ku Klux Klan also arrived at the scene and took the initiative to provoke, and the two sides that were already incompatible naturally broke out into large-scale conflicts, which are said to have caused 4 dead and 13 wounded. β
Yan Feng frowned and said, "A parade actually caused a lot of deaths, and the state government doesn't plan to take care of it?" β
The raider sneered, "Huh...... Of course, the governor took care of it, and just as the newspapers were in an uproar condemning the Ku Klux Klan, the empty-minded governor made a strange speech. β
He said that while the Ku Klux Klan was at fault, the marchers could not escape the relationship, and even blamed the anti-white supremacists for doing it first.
Yan Feng wasn't too excited when he heard this, he calmly continued to ask, "And then?" That's it? β
Helena shook her head and said, "Of course it's not that simple, his identity was exposed by the media the day after the governor made his speech, it turned out that he was a member of the Ku Klux Klan, and this time it was originally intended to cover up." Is it okay to say that your ass is crooked? In the end, the anti-Ku Klux Klan people angrily ran to the governor's mansion and held a second huge protest. β
"And then? What does the governor say, he won't still hold on and not change his words, right? Yan Feng was amused by the governor's strange remarks, under the premise that the anti-racial discrimination of the Miqi country is politically correct, the governor of a state actually joined the 3 Klan Party and openly challenged his country's constitution, it seems that his life may not be easy.
The raider scoffed, "Of course not, he changed his tune the next day and said that he was not shielding the Ku Klux Klan, and severely condemned these thugs, saying that joining the Ku Klux Klan was only before he became governor, and he had quit after becoming a government official." However, the public apparently did not buy it so easily, and there are still people who are protesting in a sit-in in front of the state government. β
"And the state legislature has also started impeachment proceedings against the governor, who ...... I'm afraid that's the end of his political career. But it's not over yet, as the leader of the Ku Klux Klan's pastoral state branch, HΓ©ctor Edert, has made a statement to make all people of color look good. Helena took the Raider's words and said.
The Raider continued, "And that's not all, the colored people are not showing weakness either. The Hand Club, which is dominated by Japon immigrants, and the Red Gate, which is dominated by Chinese immigrants, have also recently spoken out to take HΓ©ctor's dog life and make all racist whites kneel down and bow their humble heads to people of color. β
Yan Feng shook his head helplessly, "It turns out that this kind of thing has happened, so it's no wonder that the white people in the city are wary of us yellow people, they are afraid of being angered." β
"So what are we going to do, Admiral? In this situation, it will be more troublesome for us to act, right? Helena asked calmly.
Yan Feng sat on the bed and thought carefully for a while, now as a yellow race, he will inevitably be guarded by all white people when he goes out.
Not to mention traveling to a sensitive area like the state legislature, in which case there are only two options.
One is to stay in the hotel until the situation calms down, and the other is to let Helena and the raiders go out to find out the news.
But in its current form, state government repression alone is no longer enough to control both sides.
Unless one side relents, it may be difficult for the two sides to calm down the situation if they do not distinguish the winner or loser.
After thinking about it, Yan Feng raised his head and said to the two women, "Helena, assaulter, under the current situation, it is inconvenient for me, Ayanami, and Lord Su to go out to investigate information, and from tomorrow onwards, you will go to the state council to inquire about the news of the silver-haired ship lady." β
Helena nodded after hearing Yan Feng's arrangement, "This is also the most suitable choice at this stage, then I will go to the state legislature with the raiders tomorrow, but recently the state legislature has also been busy formulating the governor's impeachment bill, and it will probably be very busy." β
"It's a pity that I can't go out with the Admiral, but given the current situation, there is nothing I can do." The assaulter pouted and said with some reluctance.
Yan Feng smiled and comforted the raider and said, "Then it's decided, tomorrow I will take the children to wait for your news in the hotel, and I will keep an eye on you along the way." β
After discussing the matter, Yan Feng first went to the second bedroom to check on the situation of the little ones, and found that the children were already asleep.
Then he went to bed with the two wedding ships, because the three of them had things hidden in their hearts, so they didn't mess around in the hotel, just hugged each other and fell asleep.
The next day, after Yan Fengmu sent the wedding ships away, he began to use his spiritual power to track them, and Ayanami took out a fairy tale and told it to the two supply ships and Lele at Yan Feng's request.
Due to the close distance, Yan Feng easily located Helena and the raider, and after watching the two walk out of the hotel, Yan Feng began to contact them in the spiritual network.
'Helena, Raider, I've positioned you now, and I'm going to follow you to the state government with my mental powers. β
'Okay Admiral, then let's go. Helena responded.
Since they had already asked the hotel attendant about the location of the state government yesterday, Helena and the others walked directly down the street path towards the north of the hotel.
Following the sight of the two all the way, Yan Feng found that the pedestrians on the road were really sparse, and most of the people who went out looked at the people passing by with a wary face, which also led to the desertion of the shops on the street, and most of the owners in the store took newspapers and began to care about the current events that happened yesterday.
'The fact that the capital of a state is so depressed seems that the conflict that took place the day before yesterday really had a great impact. Yan Feng looked at the surrounding street scene and said with a sigh.
'This is also something that can't be helped, everyone is afraid of walking on the road and being involved in the conflict between the two sides, you must know that the people of the Miqi country can carry guns. Helena replied.
Stupid gun warrants are of little use for the safety of the people except for cheaper arms dealers, and everyone can carry guns anyway, and at some point they will be shot by a neighbor because of a quarrel. The raider said dismissively.
While the trio were chatting on the psychic web, Helena and the Raiders also arrived at the door of the state government, which is located in the heart of Kepa's district.
While the two of them stepped forward to talk to the guards, Yan Feng looked at Ayanami, who was still dutifully telling stories to the children, and gently touched her short hair and said, "I'm sorry Ayaba, I should have asked you to take care of these children, and I should have done this." β
Ayabo, who was telling a story, stopped after feeling Yan Feng's touch, she smiled and said, "It's okay, I know that the Admiral has something to do, and besides, these two children are also quite well-behaved and sensible, and they are much easier to take care of than Shikiba." β
"Admiral!" After seeing Yan Feng come back to his senses, Master Su suddenly threw himself into his arms and begged for a hug.
Yan Feng touched the young girl's head with a smile and said, "If Fu Bo knows that you are so arranged, she doesn't know how sad she is." β
Ayanami pursed her lips and said, "No, my sister hasn't changed her expression all day, who knows what she's thinking." β
Yan Feng said after catching Le Lele who was rushing towards her face, "Fu Bo just has less change in her expression, and there are still emotional fluctuations in her heart, so your sister should also care more about her." β
Just as Yan Feng stretched out his finger to tease Lele, news came from Helena and the raiders.
'Admiral, we've inquired that the silver-haired shipwreck is the secretary of State Councillor Kelly Johnson. β
