Section 732 First Arrival
"Why?"
Hearing Locks's remarks, Avril slowly turned around and stared at him with a cold gaze: "Why is it we who give in every time?" Why aren't those who cause tragedy punished? Wouldn't they be condemned by their conscience? Punished by the Emperor's wrath? β
"Conscience? Conscience counts as a fart! β
Locks sneered, lit a cigarette, and smoked slowly: "As for the emperor's anger, I don't really believe in that kind of thing anyway. Personally, I would definitely believe in the Emperor's impartiality and integrity. But this kind of beautiful thing will not affect others because of the worship of the emperor. The world as a whole is still sinful. In the case of Oviado, no matter what role the emperor played in this matter, those guys who pushed behind the scenes and asked us to shoot the scene are also not a good thing. They also have their own goals to achieve. It's just that they didn't want to stand up, so they pushed us to the front. β
Avril and Wong were silent. In fact, everyone understands this truth. Just because Locks said it didn't mean he agreed with it.
"But in any case, this can't be the reason why Oviado was ruined by them."
Avril said again: "Those who died, and those who were taken captive by the creatures of darkness, must have an account. Someone has to compensate them. β
"They're all of our kind."
Huang Weiguang also stood by Avril's side: "Should we continue this filming, or should we use this as the theme to produce a special program?" β
Locks smoked sullenly. After a long time, he sighed and shook his head: "You are still too young. It's no wonder that only young people want to get to the bottom of this kind of thing. We've done enough. Really, even if we were someone else, they wouldn't do better than us. Anyway, there is no way to find any evidence in Oviado, and there is no way to charge someone with it. You'd better hear my advice on this matter: stop here! Neither those who support us nor those who oppose us are something you can provoke. β
"No!"
Avril's expression was unusually stern: "You should believe in the power of the people." β
Huang Weiguang nodded seriously: "For those who died." β
Locks looked at them with a long frown. He flicked the cigarette butt out of his hand and said with determination, "I won't go crazy with you." I have children, and I have a family. That kind of counterattack is definitely not something that a small person like us can withstand. I'll report to the top when I get back. Whether it's a breach of contract, a deduction of salary, anyway, I don't want to die now. β
β¦β¦
Zhongjing City, located in the hinterland of the Empire. It is a megacity with a population of more than 10 million.
When he walked down the gangway of the military airship, Su Hao was faintly in a trance.
He saw thousands of airships on the take-off and landing platforms. These spindle-shaped floats vary in size. The appearance and form are also different depending on the preferences of each owner. The exterior paint, in particular, is completely blackened with some lacquer finishes with striking reflections. Some shades appear softer, and at first glance you can tell that the owner is a woman. Others are directly displayed in important places with cartoon patterns and special markings. Here, in the inner realms of the Empire, the airship itself is the most direct manifestation of wealth and power.
The city limits are large and full of skyscrapers and dense traffic. It was the first time Su Hao had seen a hovering car like a flying locust. The streets are lined with green belts with a variety of ornamental plants that cannot be named. The traffic is extremely fast and wants to cross the street. It must be carried out in a transverse pipeline at a specific location.
The city is in order, with a dense flow of people coming and going in shopping malls and supermarkets. Various noises emanating from unknown corners converge to form a bombardment over the city. This kind of confusion from the sound made Su Hao miss his cleanliness in Konoha Town. This is equivalent to the effect of hundreds of flies flying in your ears. It's annoying, but it can't get rid of it completely.
The earth in memory is almost like this. I just don't know. What has become of the earth now?
An elongated hovercraft with the words "Imperial United Television" painted on its body was parked on the side of the airship's landing pad. The black body looks luxurious, and through the front windshield, you can see the driver with a grim expression in the driver's seat. In the middle of the body, stood a tall, very capable young woman.
"Are you Major Su Hao? I'm in charge of picking you up. β
After a brief inquiry. Under the courteous leadership of the woman, Su Hao sat in the car.
When he received the invitation from the TV station, Su Hao didn't think too much about it.
The other party invited him to go to Zhongjing City to participate in a live Q&A program. Su Hao has read the introduction and checked a lot of information. The show has good ratings among the common people of the Empire, especially the host, who has a high level of support among the common people. Of course. The core of the show is aimed at the imperial aristocracy and high-ranking officials, and the style is also a mockery and ridicule of the superiors. Almost every time the show is shown, a high-ranking aristocrat or official is found out as the target of bombardment. From the specific governance measures of those in power to the results of the handling of a certain matter, they will become the object of ridicule of the program host. There were many times when the interviewees who participated in the show appeared to be emotional and excited, and even became angry on the spot, arguing and shouting with the host. That's the charm of this show. Commoners like to see the nobles and officials stupidly angry. Coupled with the host's humorous ridicule and interjections, this stupidity will be infinitely magnified. No matter what kind of remedies they made on the show, they could not recover the points they had lost. Naturally, the upper echelons of the empire did not like the show, and even hated it terribly.
Su Hao still remembers what Dai Xiaolou said before he set off.
"Are you sure you really want to be on the show?"
"I think it's a trap, or a trap, set against you."
"This show is not as simple as you think. Hehe! Think about it, what would happen if an ordinary person offended an official? Why has such a show been so popular? Consistently popular for so long? True, we all dislike nobles and officials, but no one can deny that nobles and officials have the supreme power in their hands against commoners. They can do whatever they want, and they can knead civilians into the shape they want. Hahahaha! When they need you to pay more taxes, they squeeze you hard and crush you flat. If they are merciful. If you feel that you should give a little benefit to the common people, then you will be raised to be fat for nothing, at least it looks round. In fact, everyone knows these things very well, but few people say that they break it. Even if a few clever people write books and biographies and express all kinds of problems and contradictions in the most simple and understandable words, the common people will still live according to the fixed trajectory of the past. They have become accustomed to being accused and to acting on other people's orders. β
"Do you think civilians are a bunch of brainless pigs? I think so too. On the one hand, they howl and demand more benefits and benefits from the hands of those in power. On the one hand, he is willing to do what the superior orders does. This contradiction seems really ridiculous to others. Of course. Even pigs, as long as the population is large enough and large enough, there will always be a few quite smart guys. They will expose the conspiracy of the superior to raise pigs and eat meat at the same time. Well, the political and criminal prisoners in the Imperial Prison are the smartest and brightest in the herd. Not! You have to understand that smartness is a disease and it's contagious. Just spreading it in a small area won't be too much of a problem. At most, all the smart pigs are slaughtered at once, and then a little more effort is spent on breeding new piglets. Hehe! Of course. The higher-ups will also take a smarter approach. For example, at the right time, throw out the waste of several nobles and officials, and make them a toy for the common people to ridicule and ridicule, and to manipulate at will. In this way, tensions and antagonisms have eased. Contradictions and hatred can easily be transferred to the waste that is thrown out. The reason why dramas such as the Lord of the Blue Sky have remained unchanged for thousands of years is that they are popular with the masses. It's because this kind of clichΓ© story is attractive enough. It only takes a talk show to maintain the foundation of rule, and then the overly greedy guys in the official ranks are legitimately eliminated. No one would suspect that this was a conspiracy by a high-level power group, people just saw the garbage in the show stretched in front of a barrage of questions, and then the host was so angry that they couldn't even speak. This is what the common people want to see. β
"Now, it's your turn."
"The purpose of those aristocrats is to use this show. Make me look embarrassed in front of the screen, and then beat me to death with a stick under the pretext of "incompetence" or something? β
"It's what they do best. The host, who is called the "spokesperson of the common people", is actually a pawn posed by the bigwigs behind the scenes. Each of his questions seemed unassailable, all to the heart of the matter. However, he will only put you in a hostile position and will never change your words. or opportunities for remediation. Even if you take the initiative in something, he won't give you a chance to turn it around. The skin of the mouth is two knives, and he is very good at cutting meat with invisible methods. As long as you are panicked, they will have plenty of excuses to deal with you. Financial Audit, Personal Competence Test, Jurisdictional Crime Questionnaire...... Tut-tut! You can't imagine how horrific those jumble investigations can be enough to drive people crazy. As long as you retreat, go mad, or die, they have enough excuse to get involved. Of course, the purpose is still the space that belongs to you. β
"That's what the civilians want to see?"
"Civilians will only see your stupid and clumsy appearance on stage. As I said, they're just a bunch of brainless pigs. You should contract a pig farm, and then you will understand why I say that. The strongest pigs on the farm tend to eat the most, and they tend to arouse the envy and jealousy of their peers. When the fat pig was taken out by the butcher and slaughtered, the other pigs not only did not resist, but felt that there was no one to fight with them for food in the future, and they were so happy that they "purred" and laughed loudly. They will watch with interest as you are unlucky, as you fall into the abyss and then fall into the well yourself. Hehe! Scary, isn't it? In fact, they are like that, but it is not easy to see on the surface. β
With these chaotic thoughts, Su Hao leaned back on the back seat of the hovercar and pretended to sleep.
The reason why he accepted the invitation was not because he was unaware of the problems, but because he felt that he needed to show enough strength in a formal, public occasion to dispel the undesirable thoughts as soon as possible.
Of course, if this tough attitude is still not enough to make the other party stop, Su Hao has a way to deal with them.
It was only now that Su Hao really found out. How important is the identity of a legion? This can indeed be regarded as a privilege in a certain way. Of course, in the eyes of the common people of the Empire, the soldiers were the protectors of the Empire. Their image is much better than that of those officials, and they are more easily accepted in terms of concept.
Su Hao's choice of time was very accurate, and the hovercar arrived at the headquarters of the Imperial United Television Station two hours before the show started. In the reply letter. Su Hao claimed that he was busy with official business. Therefore, the airship will take itself directly to Zhongjing City. There is no need to rest, and there is no need for a special person to tutor oneself. You don't even need simple communication, you can go straight to the stage.
This kind of rude and barbaric behavior is very much in line with Su Hao's image as a soldier. At least, that's what it looks like on the surface.
Television has always been a very lively place.
Under the leadership of the woman, Su Hao walked out of the carriage and stepped into the elevator. As he was operating within the Empire, he did not wear a Warframe. It's just a thin military vest on his body. According to the relevant regulations, it is the exclusive right of soldiers to be equipped with guns and daggers, and Su Hao deliberately chose a pistol with a thick caliber, and the blade of the dagger is much longer than that of ordinary models.
He was a burly man, tall man, and his heavy military boots trampled across the ground, making a dull crashing sound. Black particles have a self-transforming effect on the internal structure of the body. The perennial wandering before life and death also made Su Hao's muscles particularly strong. He was still as handsome as he was when he was on Earth, with short hair, but he looked capable and spirited. The thick and round arms were enough to make the soft eggs among those men feel fearful and ashamed. Su Hao exuded a murderous aura all over his body, and even his eyes became cold. It's chilling.
Such an image of a man is actually very common in the barracks. However, in the TV station, especially in the media headquarters in the inner region of the empire, a guy like Su Hao appeared for the first time. Naturally, when he stepped out of the elevator. When I entered the corridor, I immediately caused a burst of exclamations and attention from all sides.
"Hey! Who is that guy? New to the special actors? β
"His muscles look so strong that I can't resist jumping on it and biting hard. Would you like to make a bet and guess how long something is underneath him? Five silver coins, are you coming? β
"Is this guy a youkai who crawled out of hell? I'm afraid that's not the case with the most evil creatures of darkness, right? β
There are a lot of beautiful women and handsome men here, some dressed up with flowers, some with a pure image, and some with a slick and prodigal appearance. They all stood sideways on both sides of the corridor, looking at Su Hao with their different eyes. The woman's expression and gaze are almost full of interest, and some are simply naked seduction. In comparison, the man's feeling for Su Hao is not so good--this guy is too attention-grabbing, doesn't he know that he should be a man with his tail between his legs in this kind of place? Look what this guy looks like now, he's a damn peacock with his tail cocked and a good demonstration to everyone.
Television stations will also set up some programs on military topics. Along the way from the underground garage to the upper floor, Su Hao saw more than a dozen men and women wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Wehrmacht. However, their temperament and figure do not look like real soldiers, and they do not look intimidating, at most they are just a group of civilians sitting in the office of the logistics agency.
The woman in charge of leading the way is very attentive. In front of a room with a "dressing room" sign, she stopped, turned around, and said seriously: "There is still more than an hour before the show starts." You can take a break here for a while. Your situation is a bit unique and you haven't been trained before the broadcast. Although this is your request, we also need to make changes to the program and related procedures. β
After speaking, she looked down at her watch, reached out and pushed the door open, smiled, and made a "please" gesture.
It was a large and spacious room. The moment he pushed the door open, Su Hao smelled a strong aroma. That's the smell of a lot of cosmetics in the air. When he walked in and sat on the couch, he found a man coming from the corner inside.
It was a tall, middle-aged man. The cheeks are thin, the eye sockets are deep, and the whole person looks quite gloomy, but there is a rather sweet smile on the face. His clothes looked luxurious, and the surface was inlaid with a large number of artificial crystals of varying grains, which glittered in the light.
"Hello! Excuse me, is it Major Su Hao? β
The middle-aged man kept smiling, pulled over a chair, sat down opposite Su Hao, and at the same time stretched out his right hand and said in a rather magnetic voice: "I'm Kailas, your show host, and your friend." β
Su Hao held the hand that was stretched out towards him. It feels slightly cool and the skin is smooth. Normally, this feeling is only seen in women. But this guy in front of him is a man. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )I752
