Section 21 Captain
No matter how madly a country, nation, or group of people loves themselves and thinks that the emergence of heroes is inevitable, in fact, heroes are never necessarily born (see India and Latin America specifically).
Generally speaking, where a large number of hero movies are played, there are more chances of a hero being born. Because there will be people who involuntarily imitate heroes (as a group, human beings usually involuntarily imitate the image that impresses them) - and give this imitation the opportunity to make them successful, it is possible to make them really become heroes

Entrance to the Ambrera Underground Laboratory
He plugged in the door card, and after a "drop", the electronic door slowly opened.
Then, push the food cart and walk down that enclosed corridor as you normally would. However, the usual ordinary corridor today seemed to be like a lot of people were peeking at him, which made his back sweat a lot.
There are excuses, there are a few doctors who like to have a late-night snack at 11 o'clock. There have been cases of delivering meals at this time before--- as long as they are not examined in detail, they can be concealed.
Thirty meters later, there is a dead end for the camera. There was a hut where John put his broom. Drop off the dining cart there, climb up to the vent between the broomsticks, and thirty meters to the east, there should be the laboratory.
Or the gold reserve room.
Tom's whole body trembled.
This kind of thing, even after seeing yesterday's show, he would have been skeptical. Although the rules of the laboratory are very strict, although his food truck can only enter the restaurant through a safe route--- even if he is looking for a bathroom, he will be reprimanded and dare to leave by the strict security guards. But in more than two years, Ambrera didn't see anything related to gold.
It wasn't until this morning, when he saw Jack, a colleague of his own, sneakily leaving with a package in the dining room, that his doubts expanded.
Subsequently, what he heard in the smoking room contributed to his current action.
"I heard that Jack found a package in the basement with dozens of gold bars inside?"
"Shhhh Don't let anyone hear it. What's going on? ”
"It seems that someone found it in the company's warehouse after seeing yesterday's news. Then he hid in the basement and was discovered by Jack...."
This kind of news has been circulating in all corners all day long. There are --- versions of envy of the lucky ones who picked up the gold, the whimsy of speculating on the location of gold storage based on the secrecy discipline of various corporations, and resentment of the top executives of companies who hoarded large quantities of gold.
Tom lifted the lid of the vent and climbed in. It was dark inside, but he didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, so he could only barely crawl forward.
Five, four, three... Approaching the next ventilated cover, Tom sped up. After listening to the side for a while, there was no sound, and then he carefully lifted the lid.
"Don't play tricks, come down by yourself." Outside the vent, a pistol was pointed at his forehead.
Tom crawled down with a sad face, and crouched down with four or five men under the pressure of a pistol. He wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but when he opened his mouth, he smashed the handle of a gun on the back of his head.
"More and more, Captain. These little mongrels are simply endless. ”
"yes, that's not the way to go."
This steady, deep voice was the last thing Tom heard before he passed out.
Basically, Ambrera's condition was as Wang Luo expected, and it fermented quickly. The purpose of this company is to engage in secret experiments---- for safety, they give most of their employees high benefits, a lot of vacation, and a small workload; Also for security reasons, many of their locations require high clearance to enter, and are kept secret for most of their employees.
Under the instigation of the news of "large-scale gold mining", this practice has become a despicable practice of "treating employees as pigs for the sake of gold mining" in the minds of employees who are comfortable, comfortable and leisurely. And in these more than 20 hours, the executives of Ambrera, who were slandered by rumors and not secretly exposed, did not pay too much attention and did not take much action.
As a result, many people, like Tom, have come to the hidden corners of Ambrera with doubt, curiosity, or other purposes.
Until, like Tom, they are caught by the security guards who have strengthened their defenses.
However, there were also suspicions and problems among the security guards, and they were also a little overwhelmed.

The central conference room of the Ambrera Underground Laboratory
"Since yesterday afternoon, my team has caught 23 people. It's all our people. ”
"It's hard to deal with, some of them and our security guards are neighbors, friends, relatives, even father and son. They are all flashed by rumors, and if they are handled too much, they may cause an even greater backlash; If they don't control it, they have a good chance of coming into contact with the company's experimental data. ”
Manager A glanced at the report and looked at the person who had come to report the bad news, the vice captain of the fourth team of the security team, Johansen. Bart.
On file, this is a veteran in his thirties. After entering the company for about a year, he was promoted to vice captain by relying on his extremely high quality. From the outside, this person has brown hair and black eyes, upright facial features, a straight body, a resolute expression, and a loud voice.
"Why is this happening?" Manager B's voice smacked of sadness. "We're so nice to them!"
probably felt that this question was embarrassing, and several people didn't talk about it. After a while, Manager C next to him spoke. "What do you think we need to do?"
"We have to take this opponent seriously." This was the most incomprehensible thing about Johansen, the company's top brass who did little for more than twenty hours after the news aired. "He's propagating an outright lie, and if we try to justify it, it will only make the form more confusing. But it is not enough to just post a few announcements in the company to make everyone believe in the company. If the lie is not stopped, it will continue to spread, and more and more of our own people, our employees, and even security guards, will be interested in the company's secrets. ”
"After all, the company's previous benefits were too high, and the confidentiality system was too strict, which is suspicious in itself...."
He didn't say any more. Johansen knew what was in the lab--- though he didn't understand it and didn't want to.
It's just instruments, computers, chemicals... Anyway, it has nothing to do with gold--- this incident is pure slander, but the skill is very high.
Johansen knows a little bit about this technique, that is, from the perspective of a bystander. He could feel the greed that was aroused in his employees, and even in his own men---- even though they followed their orders to arrest the infiltrators, the more they arrested, the more convinced they were that they had really discovered something.
This greed can burn down an entire company like fire. The lower echelons of the company will search and test because of curiosity about secrets; And the team that the company spends a lot of money to organize will choose to abandon the company over time---- and they have good reason because almost everyone in the city thinks that the company deceived and betrayed them in the first place.
Of course, these words are also inappropriate for managers. He was silent, waiting for the managers to make a decision, and after a brief exchange of views between the three managers who listened to the report, Manager A spoke.
"If you were to come... What are you going to do to solve this problem? ”
"We need clarification. They say that there is gold in the underground laboratory, so the laboratory is open and the journalists and parliamentarians can visit it. Transfer the secret data beforehand, and nothing will be revealed. ”
In this way, I can command my men.
"What if the mastermind behind it is trying to gain access to our underground lab?" Manager C asked.
So what does it matter? You idiot! Johansen, who didn't know the truth, cursed in his heart, and still replied calmly on the surface.
"We don't have more than one lab, sir. This person who is behind the scenes, using television, radio, and newspapers, has done work in so many ways. Secrecy is impossible, and many traces are bound to be revealed. If you have your permission, I'll get this rat out. ”
Manager A and Manager B look at Manager C, and C nods. So Manager A turned to Johansen again, "What do you need to accomplish this?" ”
"I need three, four, and five teams for the operation, as well as the corresponding weapons and bonuses; When dealing with certain people in the city, I need to be able to go in the name of the company, and if they contact the top management of the company, I want to be recognized; Sometimes we may make a big fuss and need the police to cooperate with us and deal with the aftermath. Finally, it is a matter of the laboratory, and I hope to arrange a tour of the laboratory by citizen representatives to completely clarify this rumor. ”
"Again, if the enemy left something in the lab, or let him discover something..."
"So what does it matter? It couldn't be better," Johansen smiled. "The enemy throws himself into the net, which can save us a lot of effort."
"Okay. Remember what you said. Manager A waved his hand. Your request is reasonable, the authority and manpower will be given to you, and the money will arrive tomorrow morning. ”
"Don't let us down." Manager B said in a meaningful tone. "It's best that everything works out smoothly."
