Chapter 165 The Depressed Crisis and Christmas

Regardless of whether Li Jie's blame is really on the right person, but this blame must be thrown out. Anyway, anyone can take the blame.

But mutants can't recite it, even if it was really done by mutants, mutants can't be made to bear this responsibility.

Because the current situation is already very delicate, any misfire may cause the government to forcibly promote the promulgation of the Mutant Act.

Especially after the promulgation of the Vampire Act, some experience has been gained in the management of vampires, so the resistance to the implementation of the Variant Act is much smaller than that in the original time and space.

Once the new law is implemented, Li Jie can conclude that it will inevitably cause a strong and even irreconcilable conflict.

At that time, the contradictions will sharply intensify, and it will even turn into a war under the impetus of interested people, and this is the last thing Li Jie wants to see.

Mutants are not vampires, they are not so easy to control, a few mutants of alpha level may turn a big city upside down.

And it is unknown until now, Li Jie has never heard any news about the X-Men, as if there is no X-Men in this time and space.

When the mutant riots are really triggered, they don't know who will end the conflict, or even how it should end.

So Li Jie played a balancing game and shifted the core issue of the contradiction.

From the perspective of the government, the issue of Hydra is definitely more important than that of mutants, because of the arrogance of some "human beings", they will put the issue of mutants under political issues.

Hydra obviously has a tendency to subvert the regime. For those with vested interests, Hydra is a much greater threat than mutants.

This kind of conflict transfer and balance game is the first time Li Jie has done this. In this mutant crisis, Li Jie and his team have never really experienced fighting from the beginning to the end.

But through various relationships and analysis, Li Jie's opinions still reached Nick Fury's ears.

Afterwards, under secret actions, including tacit agreement within the government, all unfavorable news about mutants was withdrawn in an instant.

Even politicians who are against mutants will not jump out to say anything during this period of time. After all, they are against mutants to gain support from voters.

The purpose of obtaining voter support is to be able to gain a better electoral advantage and thus climb to a higher office politically.

From beginning to end, the eyes of politicians are on power. Unless the entire government is completely controlled by Hydra, any politician with a brain will know it.

Hydra really showed up and overthrew this existing regime, which is of no benefit to them.

Under everyone's tacit understanding, the wind direction of the entire public opinion changed instantly. On Christmas Eve, when Li Jie sat in the restaurant with his family and enjoyed a big meal.

All the reports on the unfavorable mutants in the news turned around in an instant, and the major media have exposed the so-called truth one after another.

The investigations on these mutants were all changed not on purpose, but because of out of control and so on.

Then it also exposed the families of several mutants, saying that they lived in poverty, but they still had a lot of backbone and didn't use their superpowers to do bad things.

In the end, all of this was just an accident. I hope everyone will maintain their sanity towards mutants and the like. Anyway, it is to arouse the sympathy of the general public for these mutants.

Use compassion to change the racial antagonism caused by the media in the beginning.

Later, some government officials made some speeches, saying that mutants are also American citizens and should not be discriminated against, and even said that they would establish an employment system for mutants.

Protect the working rights of some special mutants.

Anyway, Li Jie could only shake his head after reading these news. Anyway, these media have such virtues, God is also him, and ghost is also him.

What you say is what you say, and you don't need to pay any responsibility. They provoked the conflict, and now they are pretending to be good people. It's really disgusting.

No wonder there is a saying: The media without a moral bottom line is a bunch of shameless bitches.

But at least things are going in a good direction now, although we haven't found out who is behind the scenes.

However, this crisis of mutants has been passed for the time being, because Li Jie was very accurate in throwing the blame this time, and the conflict was transferred beautifully. It can be said that it hits the heart of the group of politicians who only care about their immediate interests.

With just a few words, the haze of war that might have erupted was dispelled in this way. At least the situation eased, and everyone began to regain their senses.

And this is why Frank admires Li Jie. A good leader should not be just a fool with a mind full of fighting.

Those who can't tell the priority of the incident, can't really measure the strength gap between themselves and the opponent, and act recklessly, those people can only be used as vanguard officers.

Li Jie is still a little immature now, but under the tempering of various major events for more than half a year, Li Jie has also grown very quickly.

He has dared to take on more responsibilities, and he also knows that those things should be done, or should be done first.

This already has the rudiment of an excellent leader, but it is only a rudiment now, and there is still a long way to go before the real leader Li Jie.

When Christmas came, Li Jie and Peter's family celebrated Christmas together. In fact, the purpose of doing so was for Harry.

Because Norman passed away, it would be a cruel thing to leave Harry alone in the huge Osborne Manor.

No matter how much money Harry has and how many servants he has, there are some things that cannot be replaced by money.

Ben Parker, Aunt Mei and Li Jie's parents were also very familiar. At the suggestion of Li Jie and Peter, the two families prepared a Christmas dinner together at Li Jie's home.

And Harry was naturally invited to participate in the Christmas here, saving him a Christmas dinner in Osborne's mansion alone.

"Thank you for still thinking of me." Harry said with some emotion.

Now the three friends are sitting on the chairs in Li Jie's room and chatting. The Christmas dinner is over, and the adults are drinking some wine downstairs and watching TV programs.

"You don't have to be so polite, you know we are friends." Li Jie waved his hand and said to Harry.

"Yeah, I was counting on you to give us a big Christmas gift now that you have become the chairman of the Osborne Group." Peter said with a smile, putting his arm on Harry's shoulder.

It is a tradition for friends and family to exchange gifts at Christmas. Li Jie got presents from his parents and grandfather, including a certain brand of chocolate that he likes very much, and a few cooking books that are not easy to find on the market. .

And Li Jie also prepared gifts for his family and friends, including of course the current team members.

What I gave my parents were two air tickets to Hawaii, just at this time they have annual leave to go out and play.

And for grandpa, it was a gift box of pure crab roe from a big hotel brought back by a trustee in Hong Kong. This kind of thing is really not available in the United States.

The ones for Zeng Chu and Peter are the toys prepared from the beginning, they will like them. For Mindy is a butterfly knife with a handle that she tried to carve and a custom-made super killer version of the bobblehead doll.

The chess made of rosewood is for Mike, and a set of tools for repairing guns is for Damon.

Frank's is Philips' new ultra-strong close-face electric shaver, and Li Jie feels that Frank's beard has never been shaved.

And what was prepared for Harry was a ticket to Mary Jane's New Year's performance. Recently, because Harry was too obsessed with training and company affairs, he had somewhat neglected his girlfriend.

Li Jie reminded him in this way that there are still many important things and many important people in this world.

Don't be immersed in your father's hatred and sorrow all day long, there are still many good things in this world.

Of course there are other people, including Gwen, Mary, Matt Murdoch, etc. Li Jie has prepared gifts.

Of course, Li Jie has also received many gifts from other people. People in this world are not alone.

No matter how you live, don't trap yourself in a corner. Even a superhero needs someone to share his joys and sorrows with.

On the second day of Christmas, Li Jie took the ingredients and went to the sub-base specially. There was another group of his important partners here, and a chef was needed here to cook a Christmas dinner.

When Mindy was playing with herself, when Damon, Mike, and Frank were drinking a little too much, when Zeng Chu and Peter were yelling and playing games.

When everything is so peaceful, Li Jie sincerely hopes that life will go on smoothly like this, and everyone will be happy like this.

Goose feather snow fell in New York City, and in these days of Christmas, the whole New York was decorated with white.

The city is filled with a happy atmosphere. No matter how cold it is on weekdays, it shows a special warmth at this time of day.

Everyone wants life to go on peacefully like this, everyone? Maybe.
