Chapter 232: Questioning and Calling

Somewhere in America, a helicopter landed on a hidden lawn deep in a mountain col. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Two large black SUVs immediately drove nearby, one of which had four secret service officers on guard, and the other with only a black driver, who opened all four doors.

Bauer took Eighth Brother Lin, Zong Fang and Feng Xiao to get off the helicopter and get into the SUV. Bauer sat directly in the driver's seat and said to the driver outside the window, "You go to the escort car, you are not needed here." ”

The black man was silent and obeyed the instructions.

The escort car opened the way in front, and Bauer then drove to follow, he opened the glove box sideways, took out a tablet with one hand and handed it to Zong Fang in the back seat.

"Click on the first video icon on the desktop to answer the question I never answered along the way. ”

Zong Fang took the computer and didn't do it immediately, but looked out the window, it was already bright at the moment, but it was still early in the morning.

"I've been watching your speedometer all the way, and it's over 200 miles per hour. It took us almost two hours, which means about 400 miles of flight. This is the same distance from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. If I'm not mistaken......"

"Yes, you guessed that right. Ball laughed silently as he drove, "This is indeed Los Angeles." It's just foggy in the morning, and it's normal that you don't see the ground clearly. Now that the sun is shining, you can see the Hollywood letter sign on the hillside just around the corner. ”

"Why did you bring us here?" Zong Fang was a little puzzled, "If you are really from your country's Ministry of Defense, we should fly directly to the Pentagon in Virginia." ”

"What's wrong? Anyway, you're here to Los Angeles. And what's even more surprising is that my ride is taking you to the Annual Conference on Human and Earth Sciences. ”

Zong Fang smiled, "It seems that I underestimated your hospitality. I just can't believe your passion for the scientific community. ”

"Please watch the video. Bauer didn't continue to tease.

Zong Fang clicked on the tablet, there were only two video icons on the desktop, and she clicked on the first one as she said.

Feng Xiao and Lin Lao also tilted their heads to look over, only to see a few clutter jumps in the pop-up window, and immediately turned into a high-definition video state.

At mid-to-close-range distance, eight or nine people sat on three couches, facing the camera in a concave shape, Kazeshino's eyes were sharp, and he immediately pointed at one of the big guys and shouted, "Schwarzen!

The steady Lin Lao also exclaimed, but not to the former star governor, "Hogan, the one who is alone in a wheelchair in the back - he actually has the physical strength to have a small meeting by himself, hehe." This guy doesn't know if it's true or not, and he's been quite busy all day. Now, there are two people who are engaged in physics here, and there are medical people over there, Tan Youyou, you should all know each other. And ......"

A stern voiceover came from the video, "Let's go!" Lin Lao immediately closed his mouth.

The first visible speaker was actually Hogan, who had a crooked mouth and slanted eyes. He dragged the sick body, his eyes behind the glasses were very excited, and he babbled a long list, which made everyone very puzzled.

Fortunately, the nursing and secretary behind him, who was always with him, appeared in time, and she immediately translated clearly.

"Guys, every day we wake up in the same room, follow the same trajectory of life, live the same life as yesterday. We are seeking so-called freedom, but are we really free? Food, water, land, mineral resources...... The elements of survival that are needed are monopolized by a few people you don't know, and those who put on a show are nothing more than their covers.

There was no food in the trees, no clean water in the river, no land to build a home. Yes, if you try to eat what the Earth has to offer, you are already in a cage. So we obeyed their rules. We've become accustomed to learning about the world through textbooks, and for years we've been sitting in classrooms mechanically being taught the same knowledge, tested and graded like experiments, and not encouraged to change the world and be different.

Smart enough to do the job at hand, but never questioning why it's done. So we work non-stop, and we don't have time to enjoy the life we have been pursuing for a long time. Until the flesh is old and unable to act, our lives will stop there, and our children will continue the game in our place. We always feel that our lives are unique. But in reality, we are nothing more than fuel together – the fuel that drives the elites. The so-called human elite hidden behind all kinds of labels, this is their world. Their most advantageous resource is not in the ground, but in us. We build their cities, operate their machines, and slaughter them in their wars...... Do you think they're in it for money?

Of course not, they have long been short of money. The only thing that drives them is the word "right".

Money is just a tool they use to control us. It is those worthless pieces of paper that are used to satisfy our food, clothing, entertainment, and transportation.

They pay us, and we give the whole world away!

The forests that once evolved the air for us are now in ruins and have become factories that pollute the atmosphere;

The clear rivers that we once used to draw water for drinking are now occupied by stinking toxic waste;

The land where animals once roamed freely has become a factory farm for slaughtering animals to satisfy our appetites;

We feed the world, yet more than a billion people go hungry every day. You may ask, where does the food go? 70 percent of it goes to the animals that we're going to eat.

Why not supply this food to the hungry, because the hungry do not create value and benefit for them. Humanity now seems to have become a plague ravaging the earth, shattering the environment on which it depends. Everything is reduced to something to be bought and sold and possessed in our eyes.

But what happens when we pollute the last river, poison the last vestige of pure air, and leave no gasoline for trucks to deliver food to us? When will we realize that worthless money is inedible? We are not destroying the planet, but other living beings on it, and every year, thousands of species are on the verge of extinction, and soon it will be our turn.

We think that taking prescription drugs will solve the problem, but what you may not know is that medical care is the third leading cause of death after cancer and heart disease.

We are told that we can solve all problems by paying scientists so that they can develop drugs to cure our diseases, but pharmaceutical companies and cancer societies are profitable precisely because we suffer from diseases;

We think that we can keep running away from disease, but in reality we are fleeing from the root of the problem - what we eat will have what kind of body, and our food is just a tool for profit.

We keep stuffing toxic chemical additives into our bodies, and the animals we eat are infected with drugs and hormones, but we can't see anything because the companies that control the media won't let us see it. We live in an illusory world that we see as real. Interestingly, we once thought that the earth was the center of the universe, and now we are delusional that we are the center of the earth.

We point to our scientific and technological achievements and arrogantly proclaim that we are the smartest species, but can computers, cars, and robots really prove how smart we are, or do they reveal how lazy we have become?

We wear the mask of "civilization", but what are we when the mask is taken off?

We act as if we are omniscient, but there is so much more we don't see.

We walk down the street ignoring the little things, the stories that look into your eyes and are anxious to be told. We will feel that everything is a backdrop for us. It may be that we are worried that we are no longer unique, that we are just a drop in the ocean, that we ignore other beings who are also citizens of the earth, that we feel that it is okay to kill pigs, cows, chickens, and even strangers in other countries, but we do not allow our neighbors, cats, and dogs, the people and animals we understand and love, to be harmed.

We claim that other creatures are stupid, but we point our guns at them to justify our actions.

But just because it is within our power and often accompanies us, does killing justify killing?

Or does the killing show how ignorant we are? We always act with the aggressiveness of primitive people, rather than the sanity and compassion that civilized people should have. Someday, this sense of life, called life, will leave us.

Our bodies will rot and our possessions will become memories. Nothing changed yesterday, and death, though constantly surrounding us, seems to be far removed from our daily lives.

We live in a world on the verge of collapse, and tomorrow's wars will have no winners, because violence can never be the answer. Violence only destroys every possible answer. If everyone can calm down and look at their innermost desires, they will find that our dreams are not so different. We all have a common goal - to be happy.

In search of material comfort, we torment the world to pieces, but we never try to look into our own hearts.

The happiest people tend to be the ones who have the least material things. And will we really be happy when we have a brand-name mobile phone, a luxury house, and a beautiful car? The estrangement between people began to grow deeper and deeper, to the point of idolizing people they had never met.

We witness great deeds on the screen, but we are ordinary in our own lives.

We sit back and wait for others to change the world, but we never think about changing ourselves.

There is no dumbest soap opera in the world than the American presidential election, which is like flipping a coin, the same coin on either side.

You choose what you want, as if you are involved in some kind of change and choice. But the world remains the same, and we do not realize that politicians do not serve us, they are nothing more than puppets in the service of their patrons.

We need leaders, not politicians. But in a world full of blind followers, we have forgotten to be our own leaders. Don't wait for change to come and create the change you want to see. We didn't sit and watch everything we have today.

Humanity survives not because we are the fastest and strongest, but because we know how to cooperate. Now that we have mastered the art of killing, it is time to learn the beauty of life.

It's not about saving the planet, because it doesn't matter if we save it or not, the planet still exists.

The earth has existed for billions of years, and each of us is fortunate enough to live less than a hundred years. We are only a flash in the river of time, but our impact is eternal. I often wish I lived before the computer and online worlds were built so that we wouldn't be distracted by a clutter of information.

However, I realized that there was a reason why I wanted to live in this day and age. Because today we have an unprecedented opportunity -- the Internet has given us the opportunity to share information and unite millions of people around the world.

While it's still too late, we must use the Internet to bring us closer together, not push us farther away. For better or worse, our generation will determine the future of this planet. We either continue to serve this self-destructive system until all traces of our existence are gone, or we wake up to the fact that we are not evolving forward but decaying.

We have electronic screens in front of us, so we can't see the way forward. Every footstep, every breath, every death in the past leads the world to the present.

All the people who came before us have determined who we are today. Now it's our turn. You can choose to forge your own path or continue the path of countless people who have gone before you. Life is not a movie, and the script is not finished. We are the screenwriters.

Pick up your weapons, whether it's guns or pens, or even keyboards. Kill every black hand that has put you in invisible prison, so that we can be truly free......"

As if to finish speaking, the lady stopped speaking with a blank face, and retreated behind Hogan.

The video goes black and there is no sound......

There was silence in the car, and there was no difficult technical vocabulary in this English speech, which was naturally understandable to the three Celestial Empire elites. But the content is shocking enough to make people think deeply.

Feng Xiao hesitated, "It seems ...... Makes some sense?"

Zong Fang habitually cut from a security point of view, "But why did Hogan make such remarks? This is not his usual tone. It's public, right?"

Bauer didn't look ahead and nodded slightly, "Just four hours ago, the venue was the dressing room of the Kodak Theater. ”

"Isn't that the main venue of the annual science conference? As far as I know, the main meeting hasn't opened yet?" Zong Fang was a little strange.

"The tragedy started early...... Bauer said with a serious face, "the one who shouts 'start' in the voiceover, according to the analysis of the sound spectrum, matches the characteristics of one of the key criminals of the international terrorist organization, who belongs to ISS Isetan." ”

Zong Fang suddenly realized, "It has been four hours since so many important people in the scientific community were kidnapped!

"It's a pity. Moments after your plane disappeared into the Dark Canyon, two missiles missed their targets and hit the cooling tower of the nuclear power plant by mistake. All police forces in California were urgently redeployed to that area for evacuation and isolation. Hollywood is almost in a vacuum. After receiving a call from former Governor Mr. Schwarzen, the two remaining patrol officers went to the theater scene, but have not been heard from since......"

Feng Xiao asked in surprise, "Where did you get the missiles?"

Power was noncommittal, "I hope you understand, this is an order from the White House." I would also prefer that it was a passenger plane that was hit by a nuclear power plant than a nuclear power plant by mistake. Of course, this is not in line with the philosophical argument that the individual is as precious as the collective, but I don't want to fake it. ”

"More than 400 people are still individuals!" Feng Xiao was almost furious, and he almost lost his entire life quota for this.

"Alas, if the monsoon blows today, half of California will be affected by nuclear dust. Do you think four hundred is too much?"

Without waiting for Feng Xiao to debate with him, Lin Lao inserted the topic, "The first half of this video has universal elements, and the second half is obviously irrationally agitating, presumably mixed with private goods. The inconsistencies that condemn war and killing, while at the same time inciting violent resistance, sound very harsh.

It reminds me that lying with some of the truth is more effective than lying directly – the motto of Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister during World War II.

What I want to ask is that this does not seem to be the usual tone of the ISS Isetan terrorist group. It is clearly unplausible for them to move away from the old feud of the crescent moon and the cross and instead care about environmental protection and human rights.

So the question is, whose private goods are this? Who is using the topic to brainwash everyone? What kind of goal does he want to achieve?"

Bauer shook his head, "I don't know, so I found you." ”

"Looking for me?" Lin Lao was confused, "I'm not the mastermind behind the scenes......

"Of course, I know that. The video was streamed live four hours ago, and many official websites were hacked to change their homepages, and the scene was seen almost simultaneously around the world. It was a disaster......

But there is a strange phenomenon in the video, which was keenly captured by our analysts, that is, the female scientist from the Celestial Empire, Ms. 'Yo Yo Tan'.

He kept tapping his fingers on his knees while Hawking was giving his 'forced speech'. It looks like a knee-jerk action, but after deciphering it, it all conforms to the original Moore code......"

"Oh, what message does she want to convey?" Lin Lao seemed to pay special attention to Tan Youyou.

The content is repetitive, only a short sentence. That's -- 'Call Eighth Brother Lin'!"
