Chapter Ninety-Four: Presidential Candidates
When the sun was fully rising, Heidefeld returned to its former calm. The people who walked out of their homes could no longer hear the sound of cannons in the south of the city, nor could they see the fire that reflected the entire night sky.
Except for the police cars still with their lights flashing at the intersection, and the police holding instant coffee for warmth, blocking the intersection leading to the Jiaolong Industrial Zone and part of the central urban road, everything last night seemed to be just a dream. City, bathed in sunshine. The façade of the space city is shining, and the sun is shining on the highway - there is a lot of traffic.
On the sidewalks of the bustling neighborhoods, people at work carry briefcases and walk in a hurry. School-going children carry school bags and stand on an automatic conveyor belt on the side of the street, looking around curiously as they eat breakfast. A new day begins.
The inertia of life is too strong to resist. Even if the chaos of the night only ends before the sun rises, the inertia of people's lives can easily overwhelm everything. You have to work for what you should do, and you have to go to school for what you should have to go to.
The boss and the teacher won't turn your eyes on you because of the president's televised speech last night and the night's fierce battle.
Although they may also be communicating, discussing, and even spreading rumors behind their backs. However, that doesn't stop them from glaring at you viciously and asking, "Boy, what's that about you?" ”
The media, at this moment, collectively pretended to be deaf and dumb. It's all about things that everyone has already seen or doesn't care about. Those beautiful and sexy news presenters look so hateful now.
They're like a bunch of mischievous ghosts, who know what everyone wants to know, but they just report some other news with their eyes twinkling, and they don't mention the topic that is not a secret.
With the spread of all kinds of rumors and gossip and the complete blockade of official information, everyone feels that this day is simply longer than a century.
Knowing all kinds of so-called inside stories, but none of them can be confirmed, this is "undoubtedly a kind of torment" for people.
And as time passed, the heat of the discussion gradually decreased in the busy work. Bustling Heidefeld still seems to be the same; - A is not happy.
And above the clouds, which are beyond the reach of ordinary people's eyes, the whole world has completely changed.
As Hastings sits behind the scenes, the scene ends with a fat-man in one of his middle fingers raised at dawn. Everyone who stands in front of the satellite monitoring screen knows that this night, the Li Fo Group can be described as a failure.
Michon had his neck broken, Fleischer was stabbed fifty-six times in a row, and Friedrich was beaten to death fifteen times after being beaten to death.
Not to mention the loss of armor and armor of the Karamai Hero Regiment, the forty mysterious mechs were actually killed by the opponent and lined up neatly for review. The fat man, with a hard slap, faded the divine light on Li Fo's body.
Although Barbara, Old Miller and others have played big names one after another, including Gambier and forty mysterious mechas, they still failed in the face of the big and small kings of Hastings and Fat Man.
And this night, the biggest winners, in addition to the black family, are the Shen family, the Kelly family, the McCarthy family, the Dewards family, the Smith family and other families who made the choice first.
Aside from the large number of second- and third-rate families that have fallen to the Hei family, among the six major families of Feiyang alone, the Hei family has occupied most of the country.
This power can completely control the entire Feiyang!
For a time, Feiyang's political and military circles were all turbulent.
Seeing the opportunity quickly, decisively and simply, he directly contacted the black camp. Hesitating, "Those who can't break the line with the Li Fo Group are ready to change their position while swallowing their anger. Political struggle and cooperation will never be on the surface.
Although they can't see or touch it, everyone can feel that the scale of victory has seriously tilted towards the black camp. In a few days, this effect will be like a hurricane, affecting the situation of the presidential election!
"Claude, Swanson, male, fifty-two years old. The presidential candidate of the Socialist Party is currently ranked 41st in the polls."
Zhao Xi, male, 45 years old, candidate of the Progressive and Fairness Party, currently ranked third in the polls, ▼""
Oscar. Perez, male, 60 years old, Republican presidential candidate, currently ranked second in the polls、...
John. Dawson, the Liberal and Democratic candidate, male, 48 years old, currently ranked No. 1 in the polls......"":
In the study of Sals Manor, Margaret pointed to the smiling photos of the four presidential candidates on the screen with an electronic pen in her hand, and introduced them one by one.
"On the surface, the spokesperson of the Li Fo Group has died, but we can be sure that among these four people, there must be a hidden chess piece. The assassination of President Franchisis and the elimination of the presidential candidates in the first order were aimed at holding an early presidential election and muddying the waters. ”
The electronic pen in Margaret's hand fell on Swanson's photo: "Originally, our selection of Mr. Swanson ranked second in terms of support, but after the assassination of the opposing presidential candidate, he who was the most suspicious has dropped to the last place at present, and he is basically disqualified from the competition." ”
In the room, Hastings and a few important ones! The members of the family, as well as the patriarchs of the Shen family, McKinley, McCarthy and other families, all looked solemn and discussed in whispers from time to time.
The fat man sat on the side innocently, grinding his skin and itching, for him, it was a bit dreamy to discuss which presidential candidate to support. He looked left and right, and everyone was not talking about playing?
In the face of the fat man's gaze from time to time, the people who had really known him in front of the satellite monitoring screen for a long time all responded with friendly and enthusiastic smiles.
It's just that after more than an hour of the meeting, and hundreds of friendly but no longer warm smiles, the muscles on everyone's faces stiffened a little.
What's wrong with this fat man?!
"Therefore, according to the election plan, our current main candidate is Mr. Perez." Margaret said, pointing to Oscar, who was in second place. Perez. For several candidates, those present are all familiar with it.
This presidential election may be the weirdest in history. Several of the major party's candidates were either assassinated, splashed with dirty water, or dropped out of the race amid scandals. Of the four people who remain on the campaign list now, apart from Swanson as the candidate of the big party, only Perez is the reserve candidate in the black camp. The other two were originally foils.
However, the Liberal and Democratic candidate Dawson, who was able to suddenly rush to the first place in the final sprint, showed good strength.
This 48-year-old doctor is not necessarily very skilled. However, his sunny image and friendly smiling face made him rise step by step from a small city in Dalapea, and came here, and suddenly killed others in the second half of the race, which was really unexpected by many people.
Judging from the information collected, Dawson is likely to be a pawn planted by Barbara.
After all, in order to gain popular support, presidential candidates need enough time to speak, to win allies, to reach out to the people, and to show their power. Now that the election is in its final stages, Barbara doesn't have to hide anything
Moreover, she probably never imagined in advance that these families could suddenly twist from a plate of loose sand into a rope less than ten days before the presidential election.
Suspicious points, coupled with the complex relationship within the medium-sized party of the Liberal and Democratic Party, and the fact that Dawson is not under everyone's control, these are enough reasons to prevent Dawson from becoming president!
"I suggest that we give our full support to Perez at the last minute." Old Man Shen paused for his cane and spoke: "Perez is only five percentage points away from Dawson's support rate. If we go all out now, five percentage points of approval is definitely not a problem. "Scratch and agree." "Agreed!" Everyone present nodded their heads and agreed with each other.
There was nothing to hesitate about in the first place. If you don't support Perez, do you still want to support Swanson, who has lost his competitiveness, or Zhao Xi, the candidate of the Shen family's Fairness and Progressive Party, who has just come closer?
Whether it is in terms of resume, ability, support among the people, personal political leanings, literacy, etc., Perez is the best choice. The topic quickly turned to the specific work that followed.
Although after a night of struggle, the whole trend of Fei Yang has completely fallen to Hastings, who was already powerful and now unstoppable, but the power in the hands of Li Fo and his cunning sister Barbara is still not to be underestimated. In these last few days, if you don't do your best, maybe you will be overturned by them! The meeting was going on enthusiastically. The fat man pushed Hastings and walked to the balcony on the side of the study. "What do you think?" Hastings smiled and looked at Shen Lao in the gossiping crowd. The fat man nodded: "I think it's good." ”
"Liver's back, I don't think he'll just sit still" Hastings looked at the horse farm under the balcony, "Starting tomorrow, Old Fari will take you to meet some people." In addition, I have already sent out an invitation to the bandit fleet. How to conquer them, you decide. "I know." The fat man moved a chair and sat down beside Hastings, "But, "I need your skills and a group of troops to conduct a secret exercise with the bandits." "I'll let Fari arrange it." Hastings smiled. After reading the list of bandits that the fat man gave him, he understood very well what the fat man wanted to do. He has controlled this country for 30 years, and the Feiyang army is invincible and dominates the universe. A by-product of these achievements is pride. This is true of both the Liverwo and the guys who have followed him for many years. Today, when the bandit army has stepped onto the stage, it is time for them to sober up. Besides, there are some things that also need to be covered by drills! There is only one chapter today, and the plot behind it was originally conceived, but how to write it well is a difficult problem. After a day of crocheting and drawing in a notebook, I finally had some clues. After sending this chapter, I'll think about it again.
