Chapter 1232 Test Each Other
Just as the yellow prison guards said to the black prison guards, the power cores from the Durham star system to the Phoenix empire are trying their best to cover up this matter, suppressing and dividing those voices that can stir up trouble.
Interestingly, at this juncture, a piece of news spread like a thunderstorm—the reincarnation of the great Divine Phoenix, His Majesty the Sage Emperor descended from heaven, was rescued after a period of treatment. The Leben star system has woken up and is now able to walk on the ground.
At the same time, a foreign media branch in the star system area of Leurbone transferred the father of the dead young man from the star system of Durham to a relatively safe and secret location through unknown channels, and conducted an interview in the form of a live broadcast.
Just as no one knows how they transferred important figures without alerting the military and police of the Durham star system, no one knows how this foreign media branch broke through the empire's control and passed information to the international community.
The content of the interview was not complicated, and it mainly revolved around the life history of the young people to answer some questions, but in the last part, the hostess asked a very sharp question, she said: "Old man, do you really believe that the Phoenix Empire will handle this matter fairly? Do you want to avenge your humiliation of your dead son, and demonstrate the sanctity of public law and the dignity of order?"
The old man told the truth this time, he said: "I never believed that the imperial officials would handle this unjust case impartially, because there is no fairness and justice in this country, the government has completely lost its credibility, and no one believes the nonsense that officials and nobles say , The singing and dancing in the news reports and the peacefulness of the country and the prosperity of the people are nothing but the self-entertainment of the nobles.”
"But what can we do if we see through these things? Living in such a country is already the greatest misfortune in life. If you want not to be driven crazy, you have to follow the unspoken rules of society, live your life to the fullest, and stagger forward."
"In order to avenge my son, I can only go against my conscience and say that I believe in the stupid words of the empire and the public law, even if there is only a glimmer of hope. At least this can be broadcast on TV programs and online media to attract more people's attention. But if you say Tell them from the bottom of my heart that I don’t believe in the empire’s bullshit public law, and the interview record can’t even pass the censorship, thus losing the opportunity to get more people’s attention.”
"I can't place my hope on the fairness of the public law, so I can only beg for the sympathy of the world and gain the support of public opinion. Although this power is weak compared to QUAN, it is better than me and my wife who is paralyzed in bed to bear the pain and suffering alone. pressure."
"So, for that glimmer of hope, I said something that the rich and powerful love to hear and need, but it goes against my conscience."
"Facts have proved that the probability of the public law of the empire being open, fair and just is even lower than the probability of miracles. This matter was suppressed after all, and the ashes of the child were scattered into the stinky ditch behind the prison and turned into wandering corpses in space , can never rest in peace, and the group of perpetrators, the two prison guards, are still alive and well, and the obscenities that accused my children of being traitors are still painted on the partition wall opposite the apartment, which is extremely bright .”
"I once went to the wall in the middle of the night and tried to erase those insulting words, but I was unsuccessful. Someone broke my head. The police did not give any explanation from the beginning to the end. My wife saw those students who left words and held signs every day. She started to lose her mind, didn't sleep at night, covered her head with a quilt during the day, and became afraid of the sun and light... I don't know how long she can live, and I don't know how long I can live, so I still have a breath , Let’s say the words that are in your heart..."
"I know these words are released by foreign media. Many people in the Phoenix Empire will call me a traitor and a traitor, and smear me like my son, because inciting hatred and verbal violence are their usual tricks."
"The child is gone, and my wife and I have lost the motivation and meaning of living. They can give me whatever hat they want,
Only this time, no matter what, I won't talk about those who believe in the imperial public law and the imperial government. "
After the old man finished speaking, there was no applause, and he couldn't hear the host's comments. The follow-up thinking and questioning were left to the spectators themselves.
The interview was broadcast in the territory of the Charles Federation, and then quickly spread to the Republic of Dolanx, the Star Alliance, the Silver Eagle, the United Kingdom of Turanx, and the Republic of Date. The Monya Empire, the Sulu Empire, the Sauron Empire, and the Phoenix Empire tried their best to stop the dissemination of this video material. Anyone who privately owns this video clip will be defined as a criminal with treasonous intentions and put in prison.
Cui Enhao spoke on behalf of Henrietta, pointing out that this kind of behavior is a literary prison in the new era. The powerful and powerful in Sulu, Monya and other countries are simply lawless, and their actions reveal a strong atmosphere of barbarism and cruelty.
Antoinette, President of the Charles Federation, and Leila, Prime Minister of the Dolanx Republic, issued an official letter urging the Phoenix Empire to handle the incident in accordance with public law and safeguard the rights and dignity of civilians.
The Silver Eagle Group and the Star Alliance are at war with the Phoenix Empire, and they will not send a symbolic letter to urge the enemy country to resolve social incidents, but will only try their best to actively spread this interview with the agents who infiltrated the Phoenix Empire, just like the Phoenix Empire before As much as the enemy's agents have harmed the Star Alliance society, they will repay them in the same way.
Morning Star Casting has been very quiet, and did not make any big noises by taking advantage of it. This made many people puzzled. What happened to Captain Tang, who was anxious for justice, always meddling in other people's affairs, and good at stabbing the rich and powerful for the common people? Could it be that he disappeared again?
Tang Fang didn't make a big noise, but Virginia Alexander made a big news. While the Phoenix Empire was working hard to block external information input channels, His Majesty the Holy Emperor, dragging his recovering body from a serious illness, delivered a speech in the official media studio of the Leben star system. The judicial system of the Durham star system is required to face up to the chaos at the grassroots units, properly handle what happened in the A-102 air prison, investigate the fault of the person in charge, and severely punish the perpetrators in accordance with the law. Give the people an open and transparent answer.
The speech this time was very general and vague, and did not explicitly accuse anyone or any unit, continuing the previous style of official language and stereotypes. However, for those who have been in the officialdom for many years and are very sensitive to politics, the above words reveal a lot of information, which can be called a blockbuster.
His Majesty the Holy Emperor made a targeted speech on a small social incident, which itself showed a tendency to enclose the judicial system of the Durham star system, asking those people to do what they did, to explain how they did it. Very dissatisfied with the way the Durham Star System Governor's Mansion covered up this matter.
Since Virginia Alexander woke up, the conservatives who had been silent for a long time ended the process of showing weakness to the enemy and launched a counterattack. Many domestic media controlled by conservatives have followed up and conveyed His Majesty's speech to every corner of the country.
In his speech before he fell into a coma, he revealed his tendency to change GE. Now he expresses his views on specific social events as soon as he wakes up, which makes many people's eyes brighten. They seem to see the light of hope, thinking that His Majesty the Holy Emperor is sincerely improving the Phoenix Empire. political and social environment.
Julius, governor of the Durham star system, made a televised speech for the first time, asking the domestic judicial system to improve its requirements to ensure that similar incidents will not occur again. At the same time, the person in charge of Air Prison A-102 is ordered to thoroughly investigate the matter and give the people an explanation.
On the surface, Julius is responding to His Majesty's speech and restarting the investigation process. In fact, Julius' behavior was nothing more than evading responsibility, and he pushed the task of re-investigating the truth of the incident and past crimes to the person in charge of the Air Prison A-102.
There is a good saying, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away". Virginia Alexander's name can bluff princes, governors, and ministers, but it has little binding force on petty officials in remote areas. The person they are responsible for is the local governor, not the central imperial power.
Thorough investigation... Thorough investigation, since it is a thorough investigation, it must be completed carefully, and careful completion means not letting go of any details, which will naturally consume a lot of time.
A week passed without much progress, and two weeks passed without closing the case.
The confessions of the prisoners were inconsistent. Some said that the deceased had hit them first, which angered them. Others said that two prison guards forced them to commit violence. Others said that the two prison guards did nothing, that the young man had a heart attack and died suddenly, and that he had no one to blame.
In short, the investigation work is bogged down in a quagmire and difficult to move forward.
Didn't His Majesty the Holy Emperor say to investigate according to law? Then they will carry out investigations strictly in accordance with international public law, respect the rights of suspects, refrain from violence or insult, and give the prisoners enough time to recall the situation at that time.
What happens if people don't get the answers they want? They will only pour all their resentment on the head of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, saying that he is an incompetent and stupid king, and he can't even do this well.
Although the bee is small, it can make people feel heartbroken!
What can Virginia Alexander do? Replace the prison chief? If replaced? Let who go up? The local officials are already a nest of snakes and rats. If they choose airborne talents, the result can only be that they will be emptied of power, return without success, and even die for no reason.
Some scholars who are well versed in the dangers of officialdom lament in private that it is difficult to be a king. Regardless of whether Virginia Alexander really wanted to improve the imperial system, or had other ulterior motives, in short, his use of the topic encountered great resistance.
If he hadn't fallen into a coma, things might have been better. The political situation has changed a lot in the past year or so. With the current official LIAO system full of hills and corrupt to the core, it is basically impossible to achieve smooth government orders. An impossible thing.
Virginia Alexander was very displeased with this development, and finally lost her temper a month and a half later, and issued an order from the hospital bed to assign a special investigation team to the Durham star system to thoroughly investigate what happened in Air Prison A-102.
Those simple, kind, and simple people feel that His Majesty the Holy Emperor has changed, from the unattainable image of an emperor in the past to become approachable and down-to-earth.
Those conspiracy theorists gathered their minds and waited to see what would happen to the Durham star system, whether the independent investigation team sent by His Majesty the Holy Emperor could successfully complete the task and give the people an explanation.
On the surface, this is an action similar to an imperial envoy inspecting local grievances, but in fact it is a test of state power by conservatives and radicals.
21 days later, Durham star system, Air Prison A-102.
There were two people hanging in the confinement room, the two dead people, they were not yellow prison guards and black prison guards, they were the first prisoners who beat up the hot-blooded youth. According to the warden, they committed suicide in fear of crime.
The person in charge of the special investigation team is a military colonel in his 40s named Kearney Heller. He didn't believe the warden's words, so he decided to go to the scene to investigate the truth. At the same time, he sent his men to the room where the yellow prison guard and the black prison guard were held to ensure the safety of the two suspects.
However, when he led people into the core of the prison area, something unexpected happened. An explosion occurred in a certain area of the air prison, and the security system failed. The prisoners lost supervision and escaped from the prison, which caused a great commotion.
The current deputy governor of the Durham star system, Marlo Smith, is in a very bad mood, it can be said to be terrible. When he rushed to Air Prison A-102 with a large number of ships and guards, the situation was completely out of control. The fire spread in all areas of the space facility. The prisoners who ransacked the armory held all kinds of firearms. The prison guards stranded in the prison launched a tidal impact, desperately grabbing control of the flying dock.
Ever since the relationship between the Phoenix Empire and the Star Alliance became more and more tense, Adam Oliver ordered to close the trade and transportation passages in the airspace around the Babylonian star system Alcassy. On the surface, the Star Alliance did not take back the management rights of the Alcasian planet, but for the Phoenix Empire, occupying the Alcassian star that was blocked by traffic and trade has no meaning. During the period when the war is about to start, Marlowe? Smith and his subordinates left the Star Alliance as diplomats and returned to the territory of the Phoenix Empire.
The ancestors of the Smith family made great contributions in the process of the Jupiter Expeditionary Army's invasion of the Hillenbel region. After the founding of the Phoenix Empire, the first Holy Emperor gave a unique dedication medal in recognition of the Smith family's contribution to the empire.
From this we can see the status of the Smith Family in the Phoenix Empire.
Although in the past many years, the image of the "Pulsatilla" has not been as glorious as it was then, the Smith family is still a political force that cannot be underestimated in the political arena of the Phoenix Empire.
