The official lost his patience, or for this woman who had no background and was now being stared at by everyone around him, he didn't bother to invest in any patience, and waved his right arm and slapped her hard.

Covering her reddened cheeks, she cried bitterly, "Please let me go, I really don't know anything, my daughter is still very young, she is waiting for me at home alone, she will be afraid." ”

"Even if the Imperial people starve to death at home, probably no neighbor will call the police, and no one will be kind enough to go in through the window to see. ”

The official's eyebrows slowly raised, expressing his sympathy with a sigh, and with his sigh, it was as if a scene appeared, a sick little girl was lying dying in the damp quilt, and finally turned into a dry corpse, the short corpse had deep eye sockets, and some unknown insect was crawling in and out.

Routh knew that this scene could not happen, but she was still stimulated by the other party's seemingly sympathetic but extremely vicious words to the point of madness, and muttered in a trembling voice: "Impossible, impossible, she will find food by herself when she is seven years old." ”

The long silence is so that the fear is drunk, this is a very common and effective interrogation technique, the official calmly looked at the woman who was out of control, slowly lowered his head, and said softly in her ear like a devil: "Do you want to see your lovely daughter? Do you want to go home to take care of your sick daughter? Do you want to cook her a bowl of hot food? You need to seriously recall whether your husband He Youyou met this person a few years ago." ”

The printed photo was placed on the table in front of the waitress Rousse, the photo was obviously taken by a surveillance device, the picture was a little blurry, but it could still be seen that it should be a dinner scene, and the exact time was written in the lower right corner.

In the photo, an officer with a cold smell on his body and He Youyou, who is wearing a captain's uniform, are rubbing shoulders, their heads tilted slightly, perhaps unintentionally, but it can also be interpreted as whispering something.

The waitress Joes stared at the man in the photo, struggling to identify him, noticing that although he was wearing a military uniform, he did not have epaulettes.

"I ...... I don't really know this man. ”

"Think about it again. ”

The official put his arm around her trembling shoulders, smiled slightly, and said in a soft voice: "It was the autumn of the 67th year of the Xian calendar, and the inaugural dinner of the director of the Electronic Branch Administration of the First Military Region, the man who spoke to your husband was on temporary duty in the branch office at that time, and he came to your house after the dinner, and gave you a precious pearl necklace as your wedding gift, remember?"

The hostess Routh vaguely guessed what the officials wanted to do, she was a kind woman, she felt very cold, she really didn't want to frame the man she didn't know according to the officials' confessions, but the whole night of interrogation made her spirit on the verge of collapse, and the longing for her daughter and the biggest fear made her unable to say anything against it, only the stupid nodded and muttered in a trembling voice: "There is no pearl necklace at home." ”

"Naturally, this can be found in your house. ”

"But...... What's this man's name?"

"His name is Li Xiaotong. ”

The official silently watched the woman nervously repeat the name that was still extremely unfamiliar just now, knowing that this matter was finally done, his mood suddenly relaxed, he smiled and rubbed his eyebrows, and instructed his subordinates: "Arrange for the witness to take a bath, put on some light makeup, and then make a formal record." ”

......

......

In the eyes of many colleagues and students, Qian Chengtong is a very good person, he was admitted to Ewha University with the seventh highest score in the Limyung State Examination, and then became a professional researcher with a master's and doctoral degree.

However, with the appearance of a post in the Ewha University forum, the excellent sign on his body was covered with a thick layer of dust, whether he was checking information in the H area of the campus library, or eating at the porridge shop downstairs of the Meiyuan women's dormitory, or even in a daze on the bank of the Rose River, he could feel the strange gaze behind him, and he could hear those mocking comments and even vicious curses.

Because of the post that was pinned to the top, it was revealed with indisputable evidence that he began to receive funding from the Repair Foundation when he was in high school.

In the past federation, the Xiushu Foundation was a very respected large-scale foundation organization, but as the federation began to liquidate the Seven Families, under the deliberate instigation of countless news media, everyone knew the Tai background of the Xiushu Foundation, and confirmed that this foundation waved checks and bought outstanding talents from all walks of life

The fǔ, as well as the infiltration carried out by large corporations and even the military, is an outright conspiracy organization.

Even Zhou Yu, whom Du Shaoqing admired immensely, was almost isolated and censored because he had received funding from the Repair Foundation, not to mention that Qian Chengtong was just an ordinary associate professor on the Ewha campus, and he never knew that the principal could help him deal with it

The censorship of the fǔ department could not stop many people on campus from treating him as a lackey of the Seven Families.

Listening to a lot of foul language and seeing a lot of all kinds of provocations, Qian Chengtong has been silent and lonely to endure, occasionally pushing up the black-framed glasses on his nose with his fingertips, looking at the other party with a blank look, and then leaning away.

As soon as class ended today, Associate Professor Qian Chengtong was surrounded by more than a dozen students with excited expressions, and one of them, a male student who seemed to be weak, roughly pushed him to the wall and stood up, and said viciously: "Qian Chengtong, your attitude is very dishonest, thinking that keeping silent will make us forget the dirt on your body? Don't forget that you spent the money of the Seven Great Families, and all this money was exploited by them from the poor people at the bottom of the Federation! Your degree, your associate professorship, and even the clothes on your body are stained with blood!"

Qian Chengtong pushed his glasses and stood silently against the wall, without speaking to defend himself, nor did he admit that he had any unforgivable sins.

A mild-mannered student advised: "Professor Qian, as long as you are willing to attend tonight's meeting, expose the shady scenes of the Repair Foundation with your own experience, and tell the people who are still deceived what kind of sinister intentions those big families have, we are willing to accept you back to your right life and admit that you are an excellent lecturer." ”

Qian Chengtong looked at the honest-faced male student outside the crowd, recognized that he had taken his engineering principles class, smiled slightly to express his gratitude and trust, but still did not open his mouth to agree to the students' request.

The silence angered the students, especially a certain female student at the front who was stubbornly staring at him with thin lips, and she reprimanded excitedly and screamed: "Qian Chengtong, don't you know what kind of bastards those big families are? They have secretly controlled the Federation for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, and they also want to control you and me in Zìyoú, just like the devil in the night. ”

"What the Bunch Foundation funds you to do, you have to be honest!"

From time to time, the guest bar is widely advertised, and the queen of flowers has an extraordinary.

"The big boss behind the scenes of this evil foundation is the bloody empress of the Tai family, do you know how many wild horses she raised in Mochou Houshan, how much beef she has to eat every day, how many accomplices she has raised in zhèngfǔ, how many justice lawyers and prosecutors have been secretly persecuted by her?"

"That woman dared to threaten zhèngfǔ with crystal ore, and even wanted to interfere in this just war!"

The excited female student spoke hoarsely, her muscles were exposed, and she even cried inexplicably, and shouted with thin lips: "You still don't admit your mistake!"

Qian Chengtong looked at this face distorted by excitement and grief, pushed the black-framed glasses, and smiled The excited female student is called Lin Chaier, the famous campus Yùn leader on the banks of the Rose River, and a fanatical supporter of President Pabul, who is quite handsome, and once wrote him a love letter two years ago.

But Qian Chengtong didn't like her.

It has nothing to do with the teacher-student relationship and has nothing to do with whether she looks beautiful or not, he doesn't like the overly fiery emotions in the words of her love letters, he doesn't like the breath between her eyebrows and eyes, he doesn't like her neurotic narcissistic smile from time to time, in short, he just doesn't like it.

So he turned her down.

After that, Lin Chai Er's participation in the student union president election failed, and the election of the student union president of the department still failed, until the various assemblies on campus in the past year have become more and more excited, and she seems to have suddenly found her own stage to shine, and instantly became the so-called man of the hour.

Qian Chengtong quietly watched her fanatical performance, remembered the same fanatical words on the love letter, and couldn't help but smile and said, "I don't admit my mistake." ”

The students besieging him quieted down a little as they heard him speak.

Qian Chengtong pushed his black-rimmed glasses, looked at the students and whispered: "I don't know who the bloody queen is that classmate Lin is talking about, as for those accusations, they should be completed by the judiciary, not by newspaper reporters." ”

After a pause, he continued to say calmly: "If Classmate Lin refers to Mrs. Tai, I must promise that I have never seen a big person like Mrs. Tai. Yes, I did receive a grant from the Repair Foundation and signed an agreement to work for the Foundation under the same conditions after graduation. ”

The students began to agitate.

Associate Professor Qian Chengtong laughed at himself and said, "Why do you want to accept funding from the Repair Foundation? Now, of course, it doesn't make sense to say that I don't know what background it has, but even if I knew that this was the Tai family's foundation when I was in my third year of high school, I would still accept it." ”

"Because I'm poor. ”

"I can't get into the free First Military Academy, the Second Academy and the Third Academy are not in S1, I'm so poor that I can't even afford the travel expenses, so I can only apply for Ewha University. ”

"The federal financial aid conditions for poor students in private colleges are very strict, and the major courses I studied are too heavy, so I don't have time to work and earn money, student loans and scholarships? I started to apply when I was a freshman in high school, but the loan never came down, and the scholarship was taken away by my classmates who did not have good grades because I did not understand it. ”

Qian Chengtong looked at the snow hanging like pear blossoms on the branches, and calmly narrated: "I want to read, I have the ability to read good books, and at that time, only the Repair Foundation agreed to provide me with a long-term interest-free loan without asking any reason, just looking at my transcript, so that I dared to enter the pear blossoms." ”

He withdrew his gaze, looked at the students around him, and asked, "If it were you, what would you choose?"

Lin Chai Er sensitively saw pity and ridicule in his eyes, and he didn't know why, he could no longer suppress the anger in his chest and abdomen, and screamed: "It's all an excuse!"

With a snap, she slapped Qian Cheng hard.

The sound seemed to be like a war drum, and some of the students who were at a loss turned their dumbness into shame, and angrily pushed Qian Chengtong to the ground, not knowing who took out a basin of dye from the classroom and poured it on him.

"Kill these seven lackeys who don't repent to death!"

In the depths of winter, the snow-covered land is covered in the quiet and beautiful Ewha University campus, which is occupied by noise and frenzy, and the slogans of students echo between the corridors.

"Down with the Seven!"

"Long live President Pabul!"

......

......

On the last day of the 75th year of the Constitutional Calendar, the Northern Hemisphere was covered in snowflakes.

On this day, the Federal Post revealed the text of tomorrow's New Year's address in advance, and Mr. Pabur, who had completed the second year of his term, did not seem to be affected by the silent march of Yùn, and wrote an article calmly, gently and with great power, again using many analogies, and successfully aroused the excitement of many people in the Federation.

On this day, the silent marching team led by Tai Zhiyuan was forced to take a temporary rest in a gymnasium, and the thin young congressman, standing in the heated office, looked at the road blocked by snow in the distance, thinking about the amazing news he had just received, his delicate eyebrows were furrowed, as if he wanted to see what the Federation would become next year.

In his New Year's address, President Pabur asked the entire federal public to reduce the budget with unprecedented intensity in order to survive the years of economic depression in this multi-year cosmic war.

All must make their own contribution and work together to overcome the difficulties, and no one is entitled to privileges for the ultimate victory of the Federation.

The Federal Food Yào Authority is a joint department of the Charter, which is not well known in the Federation, but in fact has a lot of powers, and all food and drug regulations, including synthetic meat, must be approved by this department.

The former director of the Food Yào Product Management Bureau was indifferently stripped of his post by the presidential official Tai for a very inconspicuous mistake after two and a half years of hard support because of his close relationship with the Nan Xiangjia.

The new director was Dr. Webb, who was trusted by President Pabul for his care of Miss Patel and had provided a great deal of wisdom in the health care reform, so when he took over as director of the Food Yào Goods Administration, he was feared by his subordinates and did not encounter any resistance at all.

On the last day of the seventy-fifth year of the constitutional calendar, Chief Wei Wei braved the wind and snow to attend an important meeting in Hong Kong, and it seemed that his New Year was destined to not be spent in a warm home, but on the back seat of the bulletproof car, there was no unhappiness on his face, and there was a very subtle pride hidden in the calm wrinkles.

The phone rang, and he didn't speak, just smiled.

"Brother, I have joined the board of directors of United Pharmaceutical. ”

In terms of food, because of the existence of the Charter Bureau, our Wei Commander cannot interfere too deeply, but the pharmaceutical industry, which has an annual output value of several trillion yuan, will provide him with a steady stream of remuneration from today.

......

......

At the height of President Pabul's downfall, there were only three staff members, and in addition to Mr. and Mrs. President, there was also Descartes, who was expelled from the law department of Capital University.

Twenty years later, the young student who was in charge of the chores at the time finally became the most powerful official in the Federal Ministry of Commerce.

From time to time, the guest bar is widely advertised, and the queen of flowers has an extraordinary.

On this day, Descartes, the chief assistant to the Federal Department of Commerce, flew to Bermuda secretly, but the ceremony of rejoicing at Bermuda's airport was so grand, and the beautiful women and flowers lined up to admire, believing that the real secret could not be kept.

But Descartes didn't mind that the real secrets of officials were always out of sight of the public.

For example, at dinner that day, he received a cheque for a large amount of money, and he forgot that the cheque was written by Bermuda's most notorious arms smuggler.

For example, in the early morning of the next day, he pushed away the ** woman in his arms, pushed open the window, and saw the beautiful manor that belonged to him, his mood was so happy and satisfied, and he didn't care how many corpses of Bermuda slave girls were buried under the blooming moon flowers of the manor.

......

......

Because of the war, the federal economy has stagnated and even taken on some smack of depression, and the experts who declared before the war that the war will inevitably lead to a rapid advance in the Federation's technology and economy are now all silent.

A worker in S2 Oak State couldn't help but sigh softly when he looked at the meager pay in his salary card, he joined the three major industrial unions, but he didn't participate in the silent march, nor did he join the other faction to support President Pabul, he just wanted to work honestly and diligently, and then earn some well-deserved remuneration, and live a good life for his little rì who was not rich but warm and fulfilling.

However, the price has risen so much, and it seems that Xiao Rìzi can't go on.

The orphans on Gulou Street in Donglinnesi Prefecture have long felt that they can't live anymore.

With the lack of mine disasters that have not been renewed, most of the orphans have grown up to be people, and the number of the youngest orphans is very small, so zhèngfǔ simply and directly cut the welfare subsidy, but even if the number is small, those orphans still want to live, to live better.

The two thirteen-year-olds stared at the black market beef on the shady stall, swallowing their saliva as they wanted to steal it, but the scars on their wrists kept reminding them that the black marketeers were not much cuter than the officials.

Somewhere in S3, a gray-haired mother looks at expensive high-quality apples, hesitates for a long time and buys a few, and then counts back home.

A black-and-white photograph hangs on the wall of his home, showing a young Federation soldier with a solemn expression, as if he was still alive to protect his hometown and his elderly mother.

The mother placed three beautiful crystal-like apples in front of her son's portrait, then stood on tiptoe, kissed the portrait gently, and then sat back on the dilapidated sofa and wept silently.

......

......

In his New Year's address, President Pabul said that the greatest enemy of the Federation now is the barbaric and murderous Imperials and the families hidden in the shadows, and the greatest danger it faces is those sinister contemplation, such as capitulationism, such as shady theory, such as the decadent aristocratic hedonism.

In order to defeat those enemies who seem to be powerful and realize the true people in the Federation, the people must consciously stop the invasion of these sinister currents of thought.

Captain Wei Wei, who had just finished the meeting in Hong Kong, sat wearily on the expensive imitation leather sofa in the luxury suite, and after confirming that all the attachés had left, he took a synafil pill from his coat pocket and swallowed it in his stomach.

Turning on the phone, the director changed into a silk pajamas smuggled from the empire, and when the effect of the medicine took effect, he put his hand into the lower part of the pajamas, and through the silky silk, he began to jerk intoxicated, and his breath became thicker and thicker.

As Mr. President's most trusted subordinate, Captain Wei Wei has always acted cautiously, and he will never let people grasp any handle on the issue of men and women.

The thrill of the slave girl Shòu playing on the wall light curtain was enough for him to be excited, because it was something that the Federation absolutely did not have.

Good thing the empire has.

Dozens of seconds later, the director sighed with satisfaction, reluctantly turned off the TV, and couldn't help but envy the life of the imperial nobles, in addition to silk, they also have a lot, if the federal forces enter the Tianjing Star, do you want to ask Mr. President to be a special consul?

Descartes, the chief assistant to the business, was enjoying the medium-rare steak on his plate, and the Bermuda smuggler next to him said pleasantly: "This is specially cooked according to the taste of Lin Yuan, and the sauce is very good." ”

Descartes pulled the white napkin, gently wiped the corners of his lips elegantly, and said with a smile: "Although our common goal is to destroy Lin Banshan, such an artistic enjoyment must be preserved." ”

......

......

Everything is for the Federation, so it needs to be sacrificed. However, when something great happens, it is always the most ordinary and voiceless people who are sacrificed.

Everything is for the Federation, so there are no privileges. However, the Seven Great Families have not yet been defeated, and a new privileged class has emerged in the Federation.

Everything is for the Federation, so it needs to resist erosion. But the federal government under President Pabul no longer needs to be corrupted, and the officials he trusts or has to trust are corrupted.

With the authority granted by the Charter Bureau, and the Patriot Act forcibly passed by Capitol Hill, the Secret Investigation Service has become more and more constrained by the judicial system, and by its own will, it has arrested all kinds of suspects in various states and conducted brutal interrogations in the most effective way they deem possible.

The building in the capital zone was always brightly lit, the interrogation did not stop every night, and the small red eyes painted on the outside of the iron door for three years seemed to shed blood and tears because of exhaustion or unbearable.

They are professional, hardworking, and cruel.

In the barracks in the southern suburbs of the Capital Special Administrative Region, the Iron Seventh Division and the three rapid counter-brigades of the garrison area, which had been requisitioned from the front line, canceled their New Year's leave and were training hard in the bitter cold weather and snowflakes.

Riot shields and rubber bullets, as well as steel mechs standing silently in the distance, the officers and soldiers wore their upper bodies, slamming into the hot white mist, smashing and getting up in the cold snow, silent.

They are serious and brave, and they can also be cruel.

On the eve of the New Year, hundreds of thousands of Pabul supporters held grand rallies in various places to express their support for the New Year's speech, the rally people in the south jumped into the sea happily, swaying their enthusiastic waists and hips, and the young students of the north giggled and chased each other in the schoolyard, and had snowball fights, round snowballs bloomed on their bodies and walls from time to time, like New Year's fireworks.

They are innocent and cute, and they can also be cruel.

......

......

This is Pabulism, this is the fast knife that Chen Yijiang reveres and supports, but in whose hand is this knife held, and where will it be cut?

In the name of the people, chasing that faint shadow, this is the federation of today, a federation that is completely different from President Pabul's New Year's message, and which is painfully anxious.
