Chapter 465: I solemnly declare......
The arrival of the representatives of the Ragus Foundation brought the conversation between Song Lan and Jasmine to an end, and also made the upper-class people surrounding Lu Xiang and Hannah slowly disperse and focus their attention on Qi He.
This is an exhibition with a political purpose.
The entries and images of the exhibition are secondary, and the most important is to convey the message to neutral companies and families that the reformists have stabilized the situation and gained a foothold in the 17th arrondissement, so that the ownership of the right to interpret the void is closed.
Song Lan has no interest in politics, he focuses more on the life in front of him, and the above content is what Lu Xiang told him.
Qi He at the booth had a smug smile, and the people in the audience had different looks.
Not only the supporters of the reformists were present, but also the neutrals and conservatives were also mixed in, and the atmosphere at the scene became a little subtle, even a little tense, and Song Lan was very worried that the "Murder in the Seventh District Pavilion" would happen in this exhibition.
It's impossible to say not to be nervous.
In addition to the opposing reformists and conservative members on the scene, more importantly, he also has the temperament of a famous detective who is unique in a million.
A hint of foreboding haunted Song Lan's heart, and he quietly approached Hannah and asked in a low voice, "Are you going to assassinate him in front of everyone?" ”
Beside him, there sat a young lady from a conservative high-ranking family.
"They're politicians, not gang members."
Hannah glanced at Song Lan strangely, "Shooting competitors directly at the scene is a means of gang members, and even if Qi He dies here, it will not do any good to the conservatives, the Ragus Foundation is composed of multiple consortia, and Qi He's death will not affect the basic operation of the consortia." ”
Not only that, judging from the direction of the Anomaly Investigation Bureau, since the discovery of the alien ruins, the Council has focused all its attention on the Seventh District, and provoking trouble at this time will make them targeted by the Council.
Whether it's face or stability, conservatives won't choose to make a move at this point in time.
However, the matter of Starfish Technology will not be so easy, and after the situation in District 7 is stabilized, the conservatives will launch a counteroffensive against the reformers.
"What are you going to do?"
Nominally, Hannah is also a member of the conservative faction, and her parents have always demanded that she be almost strict in order to succeed them in the future and rise to the top of the faction.
This is different from ordinary company people or corporate executives, once they get to this position, they can really decide the future of others and even the coalition government.
"I'm going to fail the four-star rescuer assessment."
Hannah snickered, this big injury gave her enough reason, from Song Lan, she added specific means of operation, in the past, neither the academy nor the predecessors of the Investigation Bureau had ever taught her this knowledge.
She now has at least 20 valid reasons why she can't pass the four-star rescuer test.
In the middle of the conversation, a loud and somewhat sharp voice interrupted them.
"Synthetic images and some descriptions that I don't know if they're true, and that's how you reformists prove that you've stabilized the situation?"
The person who said this clearly had a deep prejudice against the Lagus Foundation.
Song Lan followed the sound and found that those so-called upper-class people had all made way for this student, who looked a few years younger than Lu Xiang.
Blonde, with delicate features, and a Daystar College uniform that has been recut and decorated according to her personal preferences, the girl wears a pair of overgrown high boots with a leather whip tied around her waist, unlike the sneakers that students generally use for easy movement.
Completely aristocratic lady configuration.
Song Lan heard that some of the prominent families of the coalition government still retained their old dress traditions, and this was their way of remembering and commemorating the glory of the past.
At this moment, the eldest lady was standing in front of the booth, looking up at Qi He, her eyes full of disdain.
"That's Yin Sabel, a student of the 115th term, the future successor of the Iris Foundation."
Hannah whispered that this was the real big family, "They were once nobles in the pre-war world, and they still retain their noble bloodlines. ”
Hearing this, Lu Xiang also took the initiative to play the role of a commentator, and added relevant knowledge to Song Lan, "The initial attitude of the conservatives is not their attitude towards policy, but that they have formed a circle with aristocratic blood, hoping to restore the class system in policy and pick up the glory of the past. ”
In 2166, the aristocratic class was awakened, which clearly offended the interests of others.
Chief among them were the large corporations that rose up in the Third War, and they generally did not have the aristocratic lineage that conservatives valued, so they were given the title of "nouveau riche" by conservatives.
At the beginning of the coalition government, conservatives strongly opposed the participation of these "nouveau riche" in politics.
However, as a result, their opposition was unsuccessful, and the company not only took a considerable position in the council, but also formed a faction of reformers against it.
They argue that the real ones who should stay away from politics are the old antiques of the old times, believing that they can't even run a company.
This is the confrontation of the new era with the old.
However, for ordinary people, neither of them will win in the end, it will not make any difference in their lives.
The corporations exploit them all the time, but they don't claim to be aristocrats.
"What do you think about that?"
After explaining the history of the confrontation between conservatives and reformists to Song Lan, Hannah looked at each other curiously, and she was very interested in Song Lan's answer as a salted fish mentor.
"I solemnly declare that I have never participated in the discussion of the topics of the two factions, do not understand the meaning of such topics, and have not had any contact with people from the two factions offline."
Song Lan said solemnly that although he was not interested in political struggles, he had to be vigilant about these sensitive topics, lest he be accidentally led into the pit.
He must defend his status as a citizen and distance himself from the two factions of the coalition government.
"Neutrals."
Hannah pondered, "But in the current environment, it takes more and more wisdom to stay neutral. ”
For example, there were many neutral people present, who were the targets of the Ragus Foundation's efforts to woo them, and Yin Sabel's actions seemed to be childish provocations, but in fact they were aimed at sabotaging the actions of the Ragus Foundation.
However, Qi He seemed to have been prepared for Yin Shabel's troubles, and he smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly, "Then, it is up to me to show you the results we have obtained from the void." ”
Under the watchful eye of the crowd, Qi He's assistant walked up to the booth with a chubby creature in his arms.
The insect looked still alive, its short tentacles lightly rested on the assistant's body, its eyes looked at the crowd curiously, and when it found Song Lan and Lu Xiang in the crowd, it suddenly squirmed happily.
Qi He said proudly, "This is the cub that our investigators brought back from the lair of an extremely dangerous void creature, and after we have cultivated it, it has eliminated its hostility towards humans - this means that the void creature can also be tamed and used by us!" ”
