175 Departure 3
After a while, there were more than a dozen people on the side of the ship, separated by twos and threes, chatting with each other.
It didn't take long for one of the middle-aged men with a mustache to talk about what seemed to be a big recent change in a well-known luxury brand.
It immediately attracted the attention of the people around him. A group of people joined the discussion, telling the gossip they knew. In this way, he shows that he is well-informed and well-informed.
After a while, there was talk about the newly popular Andyman conditioner, the pearl jewelry of Dildis, or the latest feature of fully automatic sea fishing tackle.
Lin Sheng was bored and was also noisy by them, so he simply planned to go back to the cabin to rest.
As you pass by the cabin, there is a display case at the corner of the passage with a satellite TV set in it.
The white square television shows the current state of the House of Representatives.
The General Assembly of the House of Representatives is the equivalent of the Earth United Nations General Assembly of Hayashi Sheng's predecessor, and it is mainly a general meeting where representatives of various countries gather to discuss and solve various problems.
"I do not agree with all the statements just made by Representative Redon!"
A sonorous voice came from the television.
"First, Celine's excessive use of Hongwu Mine will lead to the aggravation of environmental pollution in the world, which in itself is an unreasonable accusation without any basis! So far, there is no evidence and data that the use of Hongwu Mine will cause permanent pollution to the environment!
Second, the conflict over the delimitation of the territorial sea, the vast sea area between Port Francisco and Port Tony in the Pearl Ocean has been part of Celine from ancient times to the present, according to historical texts"
The representative of Celine on TV, a middle-aged black-haired man in a neatly dressed suit and leather shoes, with a beard, is loudly denouncing the accusations made against Celine by Redion and Migaolo.
Throughout the House of Representatives, he refuted the accusations against Celine made by Representative Redon one by one.
His arguments and arguments are short and convincing.
Lin Sheng stood aside and listened for a long time.
"Wickren is knowledgeable and fluent in seven Chinese languages and holds PhDs in law and psychology from three world-class universities. He was an ambassador to the Kiverman Embassy and an ambassador to the Kyrgyz Embassy. ”
A deep and powerful male voice came from Lin Sheng's side.
"He was very knowledgeable, had a large number of students, and had a great reputation, and he could have stayed abroad to enjoy life, but he resolutely returned to China and chose to speak as Celine's representative to the House of Representatives. The male voice said calmly.
"It takes a lot of perseverance and will. A female voice sighed.
"Yes. Not everyone can give up comfort and choose hardship. The man affirmed.
Lin Sheng didn't speak, just quietly watched Viklen's impassioned speech, putting forward one proposal after another, but these seemingly extremely powerful proposals couldn't even pass the first round of voting. They were rejected one by one.
It took three rounds of voting to make a decision, but now, he couldn't even get past the first round of voting
Vikran tried to salvage the situation and persuade the representatives of other countries to agree to his proposal, but until the end of the day, he had a large stack of draft proposals, none of which were approved.
At the adjournment of the meeting, the other representatives left.
He sat alone in his seat, looking down at the proposal he had worked so hard to put together. There was no response for a long time.
"This is Vikran's fourth speech at the Assembly of the House of Representatives. More or less one or two of the other countries' speeches will go to the second and third rounds, but he "
The male voice also sighed a little on the side.
Lin Sheng didn't make a sound, just turned his face sideways and looked at the person who spoke.
The man was a middle-aged man in his thirties, and beside him stood a number of men and women who had just been on the side of the boat outside. Everyone else seemed to be listening to him.
One of them, the girl in a low-cut white dress, was there, and she turned her head to look at her companion.
Her companion was a young girl who had just worn a purple-black tunic fishtail dress.
The young girl's name is Cindy, and she is Celine herself. She has typical Celine black hair and dark eyes.
Celine people have many skin colors, white, yellow, and even red and black, but there is only one thing that everyone has.
That's brunette and black eyes.
The rest are not black-haired and black-eyed, but mostly mixed-race or foreigners.
Everyone around her seemed to notice Cindy's hair color and eye color.
Although there was no particularly obvious reaction, the others kept a little distance from her more or less as they continued to chat. Nothing began to ignore her.
In the eyes of others, the vast majority of Celine people who got on this ship were fleeing.
It's a refugee.
In the eyes of others, this is the label on Celine now. They spend their energy and time chatting with each other, not for the sake of real chat, but more for networking and socializing.
Cindy bowed her head and said nothing.
Lin Sheng walked over silently, reached out and patted the girl's shoulder.
Without speaking, he walked briskly into the depths of the cabin. I went back to my room.
Cindy looked up at Lin Sheng and saw only a sturdy and tall back.
After eating in the restaurant in the afternoon, Lin Nian and Gu Wanqiu always felt out of place with their surroundings, and it was awkward and uncomfortable to stay outside, so they went back to the room early to read.
Lin Xiao took a walk outside with Lin Sheng, and then slowly returned to his room with his support.
After Lin Sheng sent Lin Xiao back to the room. When I went up to the deck, I saw someone shouting on the side of the boat when I went to the observation deck on the second floor.
He followed.
I saw a small gray-black boat floating on the sea not far away, and dozens of people were standing crowded on board. It's all black hair and black eyes.
The ship seemed to be leaking, slowly tilting and sinking.
The people on the boat looked panicked and overwhelmed, including several mothers with their children, who were holding their children tightly.
One of the boys, who was seven or eight years old, was singing loudly, as if he could sing so bravely that he would not have to face the impending death.
"Help them!!" cried a bearded Celine man on the side of the ship.
"No way! Those are refugees, they are all stowaways, we can't get them on board, it's against the law! It's an insult to the Ocean Silverstone!"
A ship's manager retorted mercilessly.
"They're all human lives!!" cried the bearded man, his face flushed and furious.
But no matter what he said, neither the sailors nor the ship's managers relented.
The only things that responded to him were 'No!' 'No way!' and 'Nothing can be done!'.
Lin Sheng didn't move, standing quietly on the deck, looking at the small boat that was slowly tilting and sinking, and suddenly there was an indescribable urge in his heart.
"How can you be so indifferent!!so cruel!!"
The ship sank, and the bearded man cried.
The deputy captain who rushed to hear the news waved his hand indifferently and motioned for everyone to return to their posts.
"Why are there refugees? Isn't Celine okay in many places now?" asked a passenger who couldn't stand it.
"Some places are fine, but some provinces have been bombed by Miga air raids before, and many cities have used gas bombs and concussion bombs, and too many people have died," someone replied.
"Is the message blocked?"
"Well, except for the military lines on the side of Redion, there are also some fixed satellite channels, and the rest can't be connected to the Internet. Newspapers are not allowed either, and news cannot be disseminated. ”
"It's been okay for a while, when I came to Celine before, I encountered more than one refugee boat near Icarlu in the north.
Those boats happened to be caught by Micah's patrol boats, and they were swept straight down from above by machine guns, and I felt that there were corpses everywhere as I passed through that area. ”
Passengers gathered around each other talking about what they had heard.
Soon the bearded man was dragged down, and the voice faded away.
Lin Sheng stood on the side of the boat and was speechless for a long time.
In fact, he has never seen himself as Celine, but at this moment, I don't know why, there is always an indescribable anger in his heart, blocked in his chest, unable to vent.
