Nine Hundred and Sixty-Three: Crisis of Confidence

Several policemen squatted down and sniffed the mayor of New York with their fingers. After confirming the death, they took off their hats.

A poker card slowly floated down from the sky and landed on the mayor's chest that was blown into a bloody hole, his eyes were dull and unrepentant.

Soon, the police detained all the journalists.

The reporters were all baffled.

And the reporters who exploded the microphones were even tortured to extract confessions.

But no matter how they beat them, those reporters couldn't explain why.

And because they arrested and beat them severely, the companies behind the reporters were questioned.

After the autopsy report came out, a staff member came over and asked the examiner, "How is it? Which microphone in the testing department exploded?"

The inspector frowned: "This bomb is probably very clever. I searched all the sites, but I couldn't find any powder detonated by explosives. It is difficult to determine which microphone device is the bomb."

"No explosives?" The clerk frowned, "Then how do you make a bomb and detonate it?"

The inspector shook his head: "This is also what I can't figure out. I have checked all the microphones that were blown up. There is no wireless control device in the microphone cable, and there is no explosive material that is explosive enough in the microphone. It is also impossible to find out which microphone or which media is suspicious."

"F*ck!" The clerk rubbed his brows with a discouraged look on his face: "Do you know that all media companies are questioning the security work around the mayor? We put these media journalists in. They have also been searched and inspected by us, that is to say, if the murderer cannot be found, all media reporters must let go, which is tantamount to letting the murderer go! If they don’t let them go, they will attack us for our inappropriate protective measures. If people are released, but the murderer cannot be found, then we can only release them and respect their freedom of the press.”

The inspector smiled bitterly and said: "My team has inspected almost the entire scene and all the physical evidence. We even tested the media journalists. We didn't find any explosives that could be used as a traction to point out exactly which one There is a problem with the company's microphone, and there is nothing we can do about it."

The clerk could only smile wryly: "Another group of people are going to lose their jobs, damn it!"

The death of the mayor of New York has cast a shadow over the city.

A moment ago, the citizens saw him standing in front of the media and making plausible statements, but it was only a day before he died!

A majestic mayor, hang up!

Throughout the day, many panicked citizens stood in front of the city government, demanding an explanation for the case.

However, at night, no one came out to explain that any murderer had been caught.

In fact, at this time, the citizens just want to hear you say some words of encouragement, but it will be in vain.

At this time, a group of policemen came over at the gate of the government and said, "Let's go, everyone is busy, everyone wants to catch the murderer, don't wait here, let's go."

"We just want to know if the government has made any progress? If this continues, everyone will panic. It's been 24 hours since the explosion, but you haven't spoken out yet. What have you done?"

"The enemy is very cunning, and it will take some time to investigate the case. We are not gods, so please be patient!" An acting mayor stepped forward and said, "But you have to believe that we have tried our best to maintain the law and order in New York City. , you can see that there are police officers patrolling 24 hours to escort you everywhere. We are also doing bomb removal work in the whole city. Everyone knows how big New York City is. Give these security teams a little time, they are all working overtime Work, understand us, let's all go away."

Those 20 or so citizens all nodded, each of them could only give up protesting, and no one got in their own car and prepared to go back.

The acting mayor breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them get in the car, and praised his eloquence. He felt that he could become the full mayor.

The moment he turned around, the cars that the citizens were sitting on suddenly exploded rumbling!

Eight cars exploded directly into the sky, and the police were taken aback. They rushed over to save people, but the empty cars parked on the side of the road all started to detonate, and the wave of the explosion sent them flying.

The acting mayor witnessed all this, lying on the ground leaning against him, his chest breathing up and down violently, which he had never experienced before, watching those people die in front of him, this scene was too shocking.

"Call the security team over here!" A soldier immediately shouted to his deputy.

Not long after, the security team rushed over to clean up and probe the scene and said, "It's normal, there are no bombs, and everything around here is safe."

The acting mayor felt a little terrified, looked at the security team and asked, "So far, you haven't found the bomb yet?"

The person in charge of the security team rubbed his eyelids: "We didn't find them, which means that there are far fewer bombs than we thought. It is estimated that all the bombs will be cleaned up tomorrow morning, and the safety of New York City will be ensured by then."

"Safe?" The acting mayor hoarsely pointed at the ruins of the car: "That's what you say is safe? It's right under my nose, and the bomb is right under my nose! What are you doing to eat? No, it won't work like this, the murderer is looking for No, the bombs came one after another, they were so rampant, they all bombed the government, this was intentional, they deliberately provoked us!"

The mayor's secretary came over and said: "It's on the headlines again. The panic is escalating now. The White House hopes that we can find the murderer as soon as possible. Also, to prevent further bombings, New York City can't afford it. Some citizens asked to leave New York City, but because it was not convenient for us to investigate, no one went out, but the consequence of this is that if we do not find the murderer, then those citizens will lose confidence in us."

Sure enough, there was a wave of scolding and condemnation on the Internet about a citizen who died in front of the city hall and was bombed to death in front of a group of policemen.

"God, they're right under your nose, how stupid are you to put the bomb in the car without finding it? Is the United States raising a bunch of crap with so much tax money every year?"

"I really can't believe that this is a government I can rely on. How much they believe in the government, but the police can't guarantee that they will be killed."

"To be honest, I still haven't been able to accept this fact. Wouldn't the police conduct a test near the city government building? Why didn't you find out that a bomb was hit on a citizen's car? Those security teams You talk about checking for bombs every day, but the bombs killed your citizens right under your noses, what are you doing?"
