Chapter 208: Councillor Medellín (Part II)

Who can compete with the entire Federation, even if the legendary Seven is a high-ranking political figure. Once the will of the Federation is manifested through concrete institutions, great efficiency and terrifying power will descend upon the world.

The investigation of the Ministry of Justice did not have the cooperation of the Charter Bureau, but as many as tens of thousands of FBI agents and Department of Justice agents scattered out like ants, along the path that Congressman Medellín had walked, where he had been, and faced the doubts in the evidence, and began the investigation with extreme detail.

The investigation went smoothly and did not take long, and the suspicions found combined with the evidence sent by the mysterious person were enough to support many conclusions. When the 70-centimeter-thick case file was sent to the Hall of Parliament Hill, even the most stubborn members of parliament, the most staunch supporters of that side, had to agree to the Speaker's request to convene an emergency meeting.

At this emergency meeting of the Federal Management Council, the Minister of Justice and the independent prosecutor from the First Military Academy gave detailed explanations and expressed the seriousness of the situation. After a heated debate and even cursing, the parliament finally temporarily stripped the Medellín parliamentarians of their jurisdictions by a narrow margin.

Because the Medellín congressman is now a candidate for the presidency, it also needs the signature of the top judge of the Federal Court. By the time all these procedures were done, it was already two o'clock in the evening.

......

......

Parliament Hill in the middle of the night was not as solemn and peaceful as it used to be, and was filled with shouting crowds. Under the indifferent gaze of the huge statue in Charter Square in the distance, the supporters of the Medellín parliamentarians, holding the portraits of George Carlin and the portraits of the Medellín parliamentarians, were desperately roaring and insulting, gesturing their middle fingers at the riot police who stopped in front of them.

The bottom of the Parliament Hill is divided into three areas according to the long stone steps, and on the other side is the support of some Pabul councillors, who believe that Medellín is a crowd of terrorists, who hold pictures of innocent deaths in the four states around the mountain, and shout at them without showing weakness, while the prosecutors of the Justice Department who quietly ascend the stone steps respond to applause.

It's just that the number of these people is much smaller, but the huge photos they hold in their hands smell of stiffness and coldness, especially one of them, a little girl watching a concert, her eyes closed under the cold stones, dust covering her face, and the blood on her face......

Xiao Wenjing and Xu Songzi walked towards the parliament hill with more than a dozen officials of the Ministry of Justice, they have been to the highest legislative body of the federation many times these days, and the initial nervousness has long since turned into calm and joy after getting clues, but it is obvious that there are many more people who come to demonstrate today than usual, and the flashing lights on both sides are also particularly dazzling, probably because the news has leaked out.

Lawn next to the street. A black-ground car parked there quietly. Xu Le lit a cigarette. Take a gentle sip. Through the on-board monitoring system. Look at the bustling scene on Parliament Hill in the distance. Eventually, my eyes fell on the picture of the little girl. His fingers trembled as he clutched his cigarette. The screen was pointed at the entrance of the Parliament Hill.

Neither the Ministry of Defense is on the side of the Husk Mobile. Now it seems that there is a little difficulty in how to deal with him, a meritorious man. So he didn't go to work at Whitewater these days. Instead, he came to Parliament Hill every day. Be able to see Medellín brought to justice for the first time. It was what he hoped for the most.

He is currently a member of the Investigation Team of the Ministry of Justice. There are actually Xiao Wenjing and Xu Songzi. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. Immediately, a few feelings of admiration arose in my heart.

It didn't take long. The Justice Department officials walked out of Parliament Hill. Right in the middle of the crowd. Dressed in a gray trench coat, the Medellín councillor looked as usual. It doesn't look so decadent.

The flash lights lit up half of the night sky. The Column Statue of the Capitol Hill Building is illuminated by these artificial bright grounds. Appears lifelike. Extraordinarily hideous.

Councillor Medellín was escorted down the stone steps. Several specially built official vehicles are waiting to be taken to the Ministry of Justice for investigation.

When the people at the foot of the stone steps saw this scene, their emotions were suddenly provoked to a peak, countless supporters were calling the old man's name, crying and scolding the shamelessness of the government, while the smaller team there was angrily shouting the terms murderer, baby killer, hypocrite and so on.

No expression leaked from the face of the Medellín councillor, his steps were still steady, his countenance was calm and confident in his old age, and he waved his hand to the people who supported him, expressing his gratitude.

"Congressman Medellin, do you have anything you would like to express?" shouted the reporter, who had been stopped out of the safety zone, as he pressed the shutter desperately.

Councillor Medellín paused, smiled, and raised his hands. The Justice Department wasn't stupid enough to handcuff him, and there wasn't even a plastic rope on his hands outside the sleeves of his trench coat.

"I've been handcuffed many times in my life, but every time I've proven myself

and come back safely. Parliament Hill became a little quieter, and Madt raised his hands and said, "Today it turns out that this federation is still full of invisible handcuffs. ”

"I don't want the Federation to be in some kind of division because of this. Councillor Medellín shouted to the people who supported him: "Go back, at least history will judge it rightly." ”

Only history is qualified to make a judgment, but what about the laws of the Federation? These words of Congressman Medellín vaguely revealed a certain emotion in his heart, and the supporters who were immediately infected looked gloomy and felt a sense of sadness, and even those who remembered for a moment forgot what they should ask again.

At this moment, the political editor of the daily newspaper suddenly shouted at Medellín on the stone steps: "Your inner moral court has pronounced your death sentence!"

Councillor Medellín looked at the self-depleted notebook, smiled slightly, and said nothing. Prosecutor Xiao Wenjing, who was holding his arm beside him, stiffened slightly, and remembered that this sentence from Woodman was the focus of the last of the seventeen editorials in the daily newspaper.

Angry people began throwing paper balls and spitting at Wood, and the scene was chaotic as several purpose-built official vehicles, protected by riot police, slowly drove away from Parliament Hill.

Xu Le turned off the remote monitoring screen, took the last puff of cigarette in silence, thinking of the previous crowd and those angry youths, thinking that even Zou Yingxing didn't believe that Medellin would do such a shameless thing at the beginning, he suddenly understood why he was unwilling to forgive Lin Yuanhu in the Galaxy Cemetery, it was because he knew very well that people like Medellin and Lin Yuanhu were the best and most disgusting actors.

......

......

Professor Shen once said that there is no such thing as a reason in the universe. However, the successive major events in the Federation in the past six months seem to show that such a thing still exists, at least in the hearts of some people. Because of this cognition, because of the news that Uncle Feng Yu is still alive, Xu Le, who seems to have been forgotten by many people, is very happy to be an audience watching the drama, watching the murder and arson being sent to court, building bridges and paving roads underground with peace of mind.

However, the situation turned out to be beyond his expectations.

On the day that Congressman Medellín was asked by the Ministry of Justice to investigate, demonstrations broke out in countless cities around the city, and ordinary citizens of the Federation, who could never fully understand the political shady, regarded the case of Congressman Medellín as one of the countless shady scenes of the Federation, according to their usual thinking. The idea of the people is very simple, very simple, Medellín from the four states of S2 is an outsider and a weak in the federal political system, and he has no motive to commit those evil deeds, so in the hearts of the people, the Medellín parliamentarian must be a victim, and the accusations of the Ministry of Justice are nothing more than a shameless conspiracy of some big people.

Congressman Medellín has worked tirelessly over the years to preach his non-violent ideas, creating a perfect political image for him, coupled with the shouting and running of those fanatical and loyal George Carlinists, countless federal citizens have begun to take to the streets to show solidarity with the lawmakers who have been deprived of judicial immunity, especially in the university town of Linhai Prefecture, where the vast majority of students have joined the march, resulting in a large number of school closures.

The next night, Governor Ross, who was the candidate of the Medellín parliamentary election, held a press conference, at which he expressed his absolute trust and strong support for the ethics of the Medellín parliamentarians, angrily and dissatisfiedly accusing the federal government departments of playing a very disgraceful role in this matter, and stated that he would not rule out revealing some ugly truths at the appropriate moment, demanding that the Ministry of Justice immediately release the Medellín parliamentarians and make a sincere apology, and at the same time announced that the campaign office had submitted a letter to the court accusing the daily newspaper of the Tokyo District and a private television station for the crimes of spreading false information and endangering public safety, defamation, and accepting bribes by journalists......

As a veteran politician who has controlled the federal largest metropolis for many years, Governor Ross of Jingzhou has fought back more than just a press conference. Just after the press conference, some of the most prominent business people in the federation began to stand up and express their distrust of the Ministry of Justice and their support for the Medellín parliamentarians, and the Federal Finance Association, the Mining Association, and many other influential organizations expressed their attitude.

Over the next 10 hours, more powerful people came out in support of the Medellín parliamentarians, 17 professors from the Tokyo metropolitan university signed an open letter, the Federal Academic Council expressed concern, and more media began to wave their flags on the side of the people who marched, believing that this naked political persecution was born today in the 37th Constitutional Calendar, which is really unimaginable and unbearable.

Federal society began to have the precursors of conflict.
