Chapter 373 Speech by the Mayor of Rock City
"Come on, let my brother take a look."
As soon as He Ao walked out of the chapel, a figure rushed over.
He Ao subconsciously wanted to kick him out.
hold back.
Ivo rubbed his brother's face excitedly, and patted his shoulder again, "It's been a long time since I saw you, you've grown stronger."
He Ao glanced over Ivo's body.
Although he was covered in bandages, his physical condition seemed to be much better. The blood stains on the bandages had dried up, and no new blood stains appeared. His large movements did not cause the wound to tear, which proved that the wound was healing well.
The bandages on his body also loosened a lot and fell to the ground with his movement.
It's only been one night, that pharmacist's technique is really strong, such a serious injury can be cured so quickly.
Speaking, at this time, Ivo suddenly held He Ao's face, and began to pull the corners of He Ao's mouth with his thumbs, pulling out a smile,
"Don't be so depressed, it's not good for your health to always look like this, come on, give me a smile, give me a smile."
He Ao could clearly feel that his brows were wrinkled into a 'Chuan' shape.
Calm down, calm down, I am Nell now, this is the fourth brother, after all, the fourth brother.
Don't mess around.
"Why don't you talk, are you feeling unwell?"
Ivo looked at He Ao strangely.
He Ao looked down and glanced at the hand that pulled his mouth up.
There was a brief silence.
He took a deep breath.
calm down.
"Hey, you don't talk and don't smile, come and laugh, and smile once you get up in the morning, and you will be happy physically and mentally all day long."
Ivo pulled the corner of He Ao's mouth hard, trying to make his brother laugh.
Tolerate···
I can't take it anymore!
He Ao directly reached out and lifted the unlucky guy up, and carried him to the pillar of the church on the side like a chicken, rolled up the bandage on the ground, and tied him directly to the pillar.
"Nell, you murdered your brother! I'm still not healed, you can't do this to me!"
Ivo was directly tied to the pillar by his brother without any resistance.
Looking at Ivo, He Ao finally understood that when God gives something, he always takes away the same thing.
From knowing nothing in two years to being able to perfectly pilot a C-class mecha, Ivo's mecha talent can't be called weak.
While God gave Ivo the perfect mech talent, he also took away his brain.
Yesterday he thought that the fourth brother had become smarter.
Unexpectedly, it was only a temporary flashback.
Ivo's brain, zombies have to shake their heads and leave after seeing it.
call--
After tying Ivo to the post, He Ao felt that he was in a better mood. He heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards the door of the church.
In fact, Nell had long wanted to bully himself, the fourth brother who sometimes didn't use his brain at all, but he couldn't beat the fourth brother, and every time he made a move, he would be beaten back by the fourth brother.
He Ao felt that the resentment that had been suppressed for a long time dissipated, and he walked a little lighter.
Ivo, who was tied to the pillar, looked at his younger brother's brisk back and smiled.
At this time, there was a chuckle from the side, and a woman in simple clothes walked over with her face covered.
Ivo suddenly realized a serious problem. There were quite a lot of people passing by this corridor in the morning, and many of them were people he knew.
When he was at the Federal Military Academy, Ivo once heard a saying.
There are three deaths in a person's life.
The first time is when your heart stops and your body dies.
The second time is at a funeral, where you die socially.
The third time is when the last person who remembers you dies and you die in history.
Ivo Ivo feels that his physical body is not dead yet, and he doesn't want to die yet.
"Nel! Good brother! Nell!!! Brother is wrong, brother is wrong, let me untie it!!!"
······
He Ao didn't hear Ivo's cry, even if he did, he would pretend not to hear it.
He returned to the main hall of the church, found the pharmacist who was checking his body one by one, and asked if being tied to the pillar would affect Ivo's injury.
After getting the pharmacist's reply of 'it doesn't matter', He Ao went straight to the side door on the right. He remembered that the old foreman entered this side door last night.
At this moment, the side door was closed tightly, and there was a thin young man standing in front of the door. He stopped in front of the door, as if hesitating for something.
At this time He Ao walked over, he glanced at He Ao, turned and left.
He Ao glanced at this young man suspiciously. He just came to the Miners' Mutual Aid Association, so he didn't know what this man was doing.
He went to the side door.
There was a soft rustling sound inside the door, as if the old man was slowly putting on his clothes.
He Ao waited for a while, until the sound stopped completely and slow footsteps could be heard inside the door, then reached out and knocked on the door.
"Hold on."
An old voice came from inside the house.
After a while, the door of the house opened, and an old man in gray and white simple-toned clothes appeared in He Ao's vision.
"Nel?" The old man seemed a little surprised by He Ao's appearance, "What can you do for me?"
He Ao pointed to the room, "I met something in the church last night and wanted to talk to you."
···10 minutes later···
He Ao briefly told about the discovery of the underground library in the early morning and the encounter with Ilia Ann in the library.
However, he concealed the secret knowledge, and only briefly summarized the incident.
As the old foreman gets older, his resistance to pollution will be weaker, and if he knows too much, problems will easily arise.
"Ms. Ilia Ann was the speaker of the last city council," the old foreman said slowly, "after the last council change, the current mayor took power, and her party became a minority party, so she gave up the councilor status, retired from politics, and lived in seclusion in this church."
He Ao: "She and the Miners' Mutual Aid Association are...?"
"She was a major supporter of the miners' fraternity,"
The old foreman looked at He Ao and smiled, "When I decided to start a big miners' mutual aid association, she contacted me and said that she could give us financial support and some resources. Most of the funds of the miners' mutual aid association are She provided it."
It turns out that the Miners Mutual Aid Association is not small and has existed for nearly ten years. Most of the participants are miners who have nothing.
He Ao was still a little confused about where the old foreman's funds and channels come from. After all, any organization that wants to continue must have a stable source of funds.
Hatred can only support the will to fight, it cannot fill the stomach.
The speaker of the city council is the official who presides over the council. If the mayor has an accident or resigns, the speaker is the second successor after the deputy mayor and belongs to one of the most senior officials in the fortress city.
And because the speaker is elected by the parliament, it is easier for the majority party to elect its own member as the speaker. Therefore, the speaker is often the leader of the majority party in the city council, who can influence the behavior of the parliament and then affect the abolition of laws.
The main source of funding for the miners' mutual aid association comes from the former city council speaker, which is something worth pondering.
The Miners Mutual Aid Association and the mining consortium are sworn enemies, and judging from the mobilization of the city defense army last night, the current mayor is likely to be a powerful figure in the mining consortium.
The purpose of Ilia Ann's secret support of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association is to deal with political opponents?
She regarded the miners' mutual aid association as a sharp knife?
He Ao doesn't dislike this kind of operation. In the face of a common enemy, the mutual interest relationship is sometimes more stable and easier to predict than emotions.
As long as your will is not dominated by the other party.
"Nel," while He Ao was thinking, the old foreman turned around, looked at a small mining pick hanging on the wall, and suddenly asked, "It's your first time here, what do you think the mutual aid of miners will be like?" organize?"
He Ao was stunned for a moment when he heard this question. After thinking for a moment, he said softly, "A small group united by hatred."
Hearing this answer, the old foreman was a little dazed. He looked at He Ao, nodded slightly, and then asked slowly, "Do you think the Miners Mutual Aid Association can achieve your goal? Can you solve the mining consortium?"
He Ao thought for a while, then shook his head and said,
"It is almost impossible for the miners' mutual aid association to solve the mining consortium.
The mining consortium is not a certain person or a small group. It is a community of interests of all people who rely on mining and related industries to unite with the core of the mine.
It is almost impossible to overthrow the mining consortium by only relying on a few people to assassinate with hatred or violent attacks. After killing all the board of directors, a new board of directors will be elected, an ice wolf gang will be destroyed, and a new fire wolf gang will emerge.
As long as the foundation of the existence of the mining consortium remains unchanged, the attacks of the miners' mutual aid will be like nail clippers cutting nails. After cutting, they will grow back again, endlessly, until the nail clippers are broken. "
The old foreman turned his back and reached out to take down the small mining pick on the wall.
There are very few places where mining picks are used for mining machines used in mining in the entire federal mining industry.
The small mining pick that the old foreman took down looked more like some kind of souvenir. It was made of metal, the pick was black, and the body of the pick had imitation wood patterns.
What He Ao said was a little unpleasant. He almost denied the significance of the existence of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association and the goal that the people of the Mutual Aid Association had worked hard for for the past ten years.
But this is indeed true. In the past ten years, the Miners' Mutual Aid Association not only did not harm the mining consortium, but watched the mining consortium become more and more powerful.
The mining consortium is also getting more and more insane.
The old foreman stared at the pickaxe in his hand, and suddenly asked hoarsely, "Son, what do you think is the lack of mutual assistance?"
He Ao actually didn't have much affection for the Miners Mutual Aid Association, but the old miners saved the fourth brother after all, and sent him to study at the Federal Military Academy.
From Nell's point of view, this is a lot of affection.
Moreover, if He Ao wants to complete the main task, he may have to rely on the strength of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association.
He thought for a while, and said what he thought,
"The Miners' Mutual Aid Association is an organization established on the basis of the hatred of the miners who lost their relatives to the mining consortium. The common hatred and common enemy make the mutual aid association extremely cohesive, and also make the mutual aid have a high combat effectiveness.
But hatred leads to destruction and destruction. Most people have no awareness of death. They just want to live simply and hope that tomorrow will be better.
Hatred made the fraternity, but it also coerced the fraternity, making it difficult for it to grow and gain recognition among ordinary miners whose lives were not so desperate. "
The old foreman raised his head and looked at He Ao in surprise.
He knew Nell's identity and the fact that almost his whole family was forced to death by the mining consortium.
Theoretically speaking, Nell's hatred of the mining consortium can be ranked at the top of the entire mutual aid association, but the old foreman heard a rational analysis.
Although he could feel that He Ao seemed to be suppressing a volcano when he spoke.
But the child was not overwhelmed by hatred in the end.
"We have fought with hatred for many years." The old foreman sat on a chair and looked at He Ao. "The mining consortium is so powerful. If we give up our hatred, we will lose the power to fight against the mining consortium."
"The fire that destroys a palace is often first ignited from the inside of the palace, and the magnificent mansion often collapses on the weak foundation."
He Ao looked back at the old foreman, he felt that the old man seemed to be guiding him to express some opinions,
"Hatred can't be put down. Although the mining consortium and the interest community surrounding the mining consortium are strong, this strong fortress is not without weaknesses. Those who rule the fortress are constantly tearing down the foundation of the fortress to decorate them on the top of the fortress. magnificent palace.
The shareholders of the mining consortium, surrounding the rentiers of the mining consortium, use brutal methods to squeeze the bottom miners, continuously reduce 'cost', increase the stock price, and obtain excess profits.
Mutual aid associations were actually born from oppressed miners, but the people in mutual aid associations were the most oppressed group of miners. "
Speaking of this, he paused, "If the mutual aid association really wants to overthrow the mining consortium, it is best to go back to the miners, seek the help of the oppressed miners, and gather the consensus of the majority.
They are the cornerstone of the entire mining consortium, and only by combining their forces can it be possible to destroy the mining consortium. "
The old foreman stared at He Ao, his eyes flickering, "The mining consortium controls most of the city defense forces, and they also have a mercenary regiment. The parades and strikes of the miners are suppressed every time, and each time is more severe."
He Ao realized the problem almost immediately, "The stronger the powder keg is compressed, the more terrifying the destruction will be when it explodes."
Then he grasped the key sentence in the old foreman's words, "Most of the city defense forces are under control? That is to say, there are still some city defense forces that are not under the control of the mining consortium?"
The old foreman looked at He Ao's eyes almost flashing, he opened his mouth, and was about to answer He Ao's question, when the door was suddenly pushed open, a young man looked at the old foreman anxiously,
"Old foreman, look, look, the mayor's speech."
"Don't worry, speak slowly."
The old foreman stretched out his hand to comfort the young man, and then raised his bracelet.
At the same time, He Ao also raised his bracelet.
At this moment, the mayor's speech is being broadcast live to the entire Rock City.
As He Ao clicked on the live broadcast, a middle-aged man with a gentle face and neat formal attire appeared in He Ao's vision.
"...Rock City has stood on this ice field for more than 700 years. In these 700 years, there has never been such a horrible incident as yesterday."
"I have met Mr. Vinson, a humble, polite and compassionate entrepreneur who donates more than $500 million to the Rock City Charitable Foundation each year, which will be used in the streets for charity. The source of free food distributed by the homeless has also become the backbone for children from poor families to go to school."
"But such a virtuous gentleman was attacked by a group of crazy and violent criminals last night, and died tragically at their hands."
"This group of vicious criminals not only brutally killed Mr. Vincent, but also attacked the chief of staff of the city defense army, Mr. Ruolanke, who came to persuade them to surrender."
"A hero who worked hard to protect our city and our lives from the claws of alien beasts lost his young life just like that."
"As the mayor of Rock City, I didn't fall asleep last night. During my term of office, it is my responsibility, and the responsibility of the city hall, to have such horrific and crazy criminals appear."
"Here, I stand here, facing the people of Rock City, facing the mayors of Rock City for 700 years, and swear on my life, I will bring these dirty and cruel criminals to justice, and let Rock City The people of the city are back under a safe sky."
The mayor on the screen gave an impassioned speech to the camera, and there was warm applause from all around, but no one could be seen.
"Vinson is the only person who can prevent the mayor from gaining power in the mining consortium. Now that Vincent is dead, the mayor has full control of the mining consortium's rights."
The old foreman looked at the bracelet seriously and said softly.
"He should have known about the Mutual Aid Association's plan through some channel," said a person at the door, "so he will use his plan to guide the Mutual Aid Association to kill Wen Sen or remove Wen Sen's power, and then throw the blame on the Mutual Aid Association, killing two birds with one stone. That is to say, we have cleared our own enemies, and we have a fair reason to clean up the Mutual Aid Association.”
He Ao looked up, and it was Ivo standing at the door, with some torn bandages wrapped around his body, it seemed that he forcibly tore off the bandages and ran over.
But He Ao was not tied too tightly, and he could still tear it apart with a little force.
However, Ivo was able to analyze these, which made He Ao look a little sideways, and had the illusion that his clever IQ once again occupied the high ground.
But within a reasonable range, the old foreman made an introduction, and Ivo himself guessed yesterday that he was killed with a borrowed knife. It is not difficult to associate this level with a combination.
"The situation is probably worse." The old foreman shook his head. "I'm afraid he will use this name to mobilize the city defense army to clean up all the miners, and get rid of those who have a history of resistance or who are resisting."
"He's crazy?"
Ivo was a little confused.
"He's not crazy."
He Ao said calmly.
He looks at the mayor in this video.
Although the temperament, makeup, and movements are completely different, a face still emerges from He Ao's mind, overlapping with the mayor's face.
In the video of the fifth sister taking out the chip with her life, she once talked with Locke and ordered the massacre of the miner's 'supervisor'.
At this moment, He Ao understood the reason why the video was named 'M', 'M' is the first letter of the word for mayor in Federal language.
