Chapter 455: Chaos over the Presidential Election
"So, that's your problem?" Pitznock asked, looking at Turner.
The conversation between the two continued, but had jumped from the previous battle and the issue of the Beast Mercenary Group to another topic.
"That's right." Turner nodded: "Actually, since I returned to Pisa, these things have happened, well, no, it should have happened a lot before that, but I happened to run into some of them, and most of these things are because of the upcoming presidential election, right?" ”
"Yes, but I remember answering your similar question before, right?" Pitznock asked.
Turner shook his head and said, "What I want to know is not whether these things are related to the presidential election, but why they are related." Turner said: "The Confederation is also a country with a history of nearly 800 years, not to mention the whole history, but at least in the last 100 years, even in the most critical moments of the year, there has never been such a chaotic situation, right?" ”
"At the most critical moment, as long as the rulers are not incompetent and cause civil strife, in fact, there will be no chaos, and the whole country is united in the outside world, how can it be chaotic? On the contrary, this situation is more likely to occur in peacetime. Pitznock sighed.
Turner was stunned, and his mind spun slightly, and he had to agree with Pitznock's words.
At this time in the previous life, the Confederation of Kona was defeated by the combined forces of the Confederation of Queiroz and the Argus Empire, burying more than 100,000 troops, and thus permanently losing the Darwin system, and the entire federation was arguably in the greatest crisis since the joint invasion of the three countries decades ago.
It was under such circumstances that the presidential election was held, and Turner vividly remembers that in the face of the ensuing imperial invasion, the three parties within the Conna Federation reached a rare unification, and without any competition, one of the three members of the House of Representatives who were selected for the presidency - Congressman Kane was put on the presidency and became the new federal president.
Then, the next situation was indeed as Pitznock said, the whole country was unanimous and fell into a decades-long anti-invasion war, but the final result, that is, before Turner crossed, the Conna Federation was still inevitably eaten away by the three countries and faced the end of being destroyed.
And in this life, due to the appearance of Turner, he successfully prevented the collective betrayal of the high-level of the Darwin galaxy, and then made the Kona Federation win the invasion war, not only did not lose the Darwin system, but also made the Quia coalition suffer a lot of losses, and directly led to the current situation.
The three parties are still in a state of flux, and it is impossible to reach an agreement as in the previous life, and it is also in this situation that the former President Kane and the current Kane parliamentarian have two more rivals, and with the unyielding competition between the three parties, in addition to the means laid out on the surface, more intrigues that cannot be put on the table have also been used.
If Turner's guess is correct, things like kidnapping Su Xiaoxiao and someone obstructing the progress of the Federal Academy of Sciences' third-generation mecha research are all part of those conspiracies.
Pitznock sighed, patted Turner on the shoulder, and said, "Boy, the reason why I came to you before you came here in the first place actually contained this intention, although there was no war here in Pisa, but in fact, the battlefield here is more chaotic than the two wars you have experienced, I guess you have experienced it now." ”
"You kid is very special, as for what is special, you yourself know best, since you don't want to show too much, I won't ask, but because of this speciality, you shouldn't be involved in this chaos, not to mention anything else, just say what you expressed before, if anything happens to you in this chaos, it will be a big loss for the entire federation."
"I knew everything you knew when you first returned to Pisa, I thought that you wouldn't be evacuated into this chaos if you were so low-key, but I didn't expect it, and I don't know if you were lucky or bad, so you were so unexpectedly pulled in because of a little girl, and not only over there, you were actually pulled into here."
Pitznock said as he raised his hand and knocked on the table in front of him, Turner knew that he was talking about the Federal Academy of Sciences, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, at that time he just wanted to hug Stan Lee's thigh, how could he think that he would be involved in such a as the battle for the presidency of the party, and by the time he realized that something was wrong, the whole person had already fallen in, and even someone had begun to target him, and it was too late to get out at this time.
At this moment, another voice suddenly interjected, "What's the matter, can't you pull him in?" ”
With the sound, the door opened, and a man walked in, of course, it was Stan Lee, and in fact, the place where Pitznock spoke to Turner was Pitznock's private studio.
Stan Lee didn't have the slightest smile on his face, and said sternly: "Shouldn't you contribute to the country in the face of a troubled and turbulent country with great skills?" Stinky boy, you have been on the battlefield, you should know that it is those ordinary people who do not hesitate to dedicate their strength when the country is facing difficulties, let alone you? ”
Pitznock smiled wryly, "Isn't this kid a little special?" ”
"Nope." Stan Lee shook his head and said in a deep voice: "In front of the country, no one is special, stinky boy, do you blame me for pulling you into these things?" ”
"Of course I don't complain, on the contrary, thank you for being old, even if I am not as old as you, I will also be involved in these things because of the affairs of the Su family and the affairs of Elesis, on the contrary, if it weren't for your old age, maybe I would have had more trouble." Turner smiled: "So, I'm not complaining about being involved in these things, but it's a little strange, why is even an institution like the Federal Academy of Sciences being involved in these things, you have always been neutral about these things, they shouldn't be involved in you, right?" ”
Stan Li was stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I am neutral, but the problem is that the Federal Academy of Sciences is not my own Academy of Sciences, and the third-generation mecha was not developed by me alone." ”
Stan Li then said with a solemn face: "By the way, I also came here to tell you, the third generation of mecha is not far from completion, presumably those guys will not be willing to fail like this last time, and in addition to them, there may be some other forces that are secretly watching will also take action because of this, so, boy, as this flower-faced cat said, you better be careful recently." ”
Turner didn't react when he heard this, but looked at Stan Lee with a strange face, and after a long time, he hesitated to ask, "When did you start eavesdropping on us?" ”
Stan Li was stunned when he heard this, and his old face couldn't help but turn red.
"Uh......"
