Chapter 116 Hearings
A street gang crime incident, and the final devastation, is almost equivalent to a small terrorist attack.
Because Ning Fei has always thought that the strength of the gangsters is not at the same level at all compared to the Hellfire Legion, he has never understood the gangsters, he doesn't understand that they know their strength, but they still dare to provoke, and he doesn't understand that they are so ruthless, arrogant, and ignorant.
They are not just bloodsuckers lying on the weak, this is an extreme group scattered in the corners of society, you can destroy their organization, but you can't eliminate their evil.
This evil is inflicted on the vulnerable, Jennifer Hill, who is in a personal financial crisis, and the pedestrians who are injured and lying on the side of the road, their existence is meaningless to these gang members.
This contempt made Ning Fei angry and murderous, so he asked Murphy to attack and kill the bearded men.
His decision saved Jennifer and the injured pedestrians, and also got rid of these villains.
The cost was that more people were injured by explosives exploding in vehicles, and as a result, Ning Fei was targeted by the Coalition Ministry of Justice.
Ning Fei received the charges and had to attend the hearing on the street bombing.
Because of the peculiarity of Ning Fei's status, the hearing was attended mainly by members of parliament and representatives of the Ministry of Justice, among whom Ning Fei also saw his old acquaintance, lawyer Chris Wood, and Senator Salisbury Rowland.
Some members of the Quantum Corporation were also present as observers, as Colonel Patton smelled of conspiracy.
And the protagonist of this hearing, Ning Fei, came in a suit to meet the questioning of these people.
At the beginning of the hearing, lawyer Chris Wood announced that the purpose of the hearing was to discuss the legality of Ning Fei's involvement in the street bombing, and then went on to read out the discipline at the scene and the obligations of the presenter.
After an official from the Ministry of Justice objectively stated the facts of the case, a female congressman took the lead in asking Ning Fei a question, "Mr. Ning Fei, before we discuss the legality of your specific actions in the street bombing case, I would like to ask you to answer whether the full-coverage mechanical armed armor developed by Quantum Company is a high-tech weapon with great lethality?" ”
As the female congressman asked questions, the hearing staff also played on the big screen, Ning Fei and Xinyue piloted the battle screen of the mechanical battle armor, after editing, the video vividly demonstrated the rich attack methods of the battle armor and the combat capabilities beyond the combat aircraft.
Barton, who was sitting in the room, saw this situation and immediately knew in his heart that the people from the parliament and the Ministry of Justice were indeed prepared.
And Ning Fei didn't directly deny this after thinking about it for a while, because simple denial can't win the public's trust, "This lady, I can't say that the armor is not a weapon, in fact, it is more advanced than the technology used in any existing weapon, but it is different from fighter jets or missiles, I designed it, it is not simply used to attack targets, but has the ability to defend and rescue at the same time." ”
"Okay, thank you very much for giving
A precise answer, the armor is a high-tech weapon that integrates offense and defense", the congresswoman summed up Ning Fei's answer.
Another questioner raised his hand, a tall, thin man from the Justice Department, who was going to ask a second question.
"Mr. Ning Fei, I have seen the video of the scene of the street bombing, and according to the available information, the cause of this bombing was the vicious violence caused by the gang members demanding the arrears from Ms. Jennifer Hill, what kind of role are you in this incident?"
"The Sword Comes"
"I was an eyewitness, and those people treated my friend Ms. Hill violently, they shot her with a firearm, and I protected her," Ning Fei replied clearly, as a matter of course.
But the tall and thin Ministry of Justice official smiled and did not approve of Ning Fei's taking it for granted.
"So you think you acted out of justice, and you took the place of the duty of the police to deal with this crime?"
Ning Fei smiled self-deprecatingly and took a sip of the mineral water placed in front of him, "I don't know what the definition of justice you mean by me, and I'm not a police officer, but for me, I used my ability to help Ms. Hill and other people who were about to be burned to death by gasoline, completely out of compassion for the weak." ”
"Ability. Mr. Ning Fei, you just mentioned the ability", the tall and thin Ministry of Justice official pointed to the big screen from a distance with the tip of his pen, "Judging from the video at the scene, we can talk about the ability you are talking about, and understand that this kind of armor gives you a powerful attack force, so when you attacked the cars driven by the two gang members, they had already been deterred by force and fled, and anyone could see that there was no need to attack at this time, but you still controlled the mechanical armor to attack the vehicle, which eventually caused a street explosion, You're not even a police officer, and in the process, do you admit that you have abused this armed force? ”
The tall and thin official threw out such a sharp question, which not only put Ning Fei in a predicament, but also made Patton, Xinyue and the others who were watching deeply frowned.
Ning Fei did not belong to any department of the alliance now, and once he admitted that he had abused force and killed the bearded man and the others on the spot out of anger, it would almost be possible to directly define that his actions were illegal, and he might be held criminally responsible.
"Mr. Ning Fei, could you please answer my question?" , the tall and thin official urged.
"I thought it was an accident, I was hiding next to that sports car, there was no way to see the other side, the situation was very urgent and I didn't know there were explosive weapons in their car......"
Ning Fei began to defend himself, in fact, his brain has a strong ability to sense the outside world, especially with the aggravation of cancer, this ability has become more and more powerful recently, at that time, he was extremely clear to perceive the movement of those people evacuating, but he was sure that this special ability, the parliamentarians and officials here were not aware of it, and naturally they could not falsify his defense.
But in fact, these politicians who have been crawling for many years in the undercurrent of the political arena are really one foot higher and one foot higher than Ning Fei.
After listening to Ning Fei's defense, the tall and thin official didn't
Blindly holding on to the charge of indiscriminate use of force, instead following his statement, pushed him into another predicament.
"In this way, I can understand that although you are the designer of the Warframe, you are not 100% sure that you have reasonable control of this weapon due to uncertainties in your personality or emotions. In terms of personality and emotions, it seems that you have been involved in a drunk driving and escape detection incident in the past week. ”
Ning Fei was silent, speechless for these statements, and only then did he realize that he had been led into a serial language trap by the other party.
Whispers rang out from the crowd.
The moderator reaffirmed the discipline of the hearing, and only then did he return the scene to silence.
Then the conversation was opened up by Councillor Roland, who is a member of the parliamentary council and has an important influence among the councillors.
Ning Fei had had a brief contact with Councillor Roland before, and when he saw Councillor Roland's questioning next, his heart calmed down a little.
"Dear Mr. Ning Fei, it is hard to imagine that we would meet again on such an occasion, in my mind, you are the hero who saved the entire alliance, I always firmly believe in your sense of justice, your sympathy for the weak and your hatred for the dark, I have no doubt about this."
Councillor Roland's words were as unhesitant as usual to praise and praise, but soon he borrowed the language of this praise to express his true purpose.
I just heard him smile and continue.
"But the use of any force has its two sides, people need heroes, but strong and unstable personal armed forces will also pose a potential threat to this world, I have a presumptuous proposal, Mr. Ning Fei, are you willing to share this mechanical warframe technology with the world, or your team, Quantum Corporation, is willing to share, we can use this power in a more reasonable way to protect our world?"
Congressman Roland's "sharing with the world" naturally means opening up this technology to the Confederate Army, because only the Confederate Army is qualified to act as the police of this world.
On the other hand, pointing out the Quantum Company made Ning Fei completely realize that this hearing was not purely aimed at himself, and the street bombing was just a cover, and the real purpose was to covet the scientific and technological resources of the Quantum Company.
"I think we've been doing this sharing, quantum is exporting clean energy to society in a commercial form, medical and industrial uses of nanorobotics, and we're even launching challenging research work into the life sciences, quantum is a technology company."
"Okay, I can tell from your euphemistic statement that you rejected this offer, we can't force you to accept it, you are still protected by the Patent Act", Congressman Roland paused and continued: "But Quantum is not just a technology company, it is composed of many people like you, extraordinary ability, advanced technology, which is completely beyond the scope of the capabilities of modern social corporate organizations, I will apply to Parliament to draft a bill to restrict the right to action of special organizations like Quantum Company." I'm sorry we had to. ”
