Upon being called by Lila, Pan Ruiyin went to protect Lila from getting hurt.
She really couldn't imagine what kind of danger Lila would encounter in Anjiu City, but that's what Lila said. Pan Ruiyin had to escort her personally because someone clearly wanted to kill Lila.
"What are you going to do?" Pan Ruiyin saw Lila, who was waiting for the shuttle on the apron of the Shijin Building.
"Open Corner House Media's daily news, and you will find many new trends." Lila said.
Pan Ruiyin took out his mobile phone, found the interface, and soon saw the enthusiastic promotion of the four-screen head robot.
"Citizens of Anjiu City, citizens of Anjiu City!" it said cheerfully, "Think of this day as the city's anniversary! The mayor has said that we, the citizens, will form our own parliament! Cast your votes and decide on strategies
, you are also a part of this city, why don’t you vote for the public opinion leader in your heart!”
"Establish a parliament!" Pan Ruiyin was shocked.
Along the way, she saw a large number of floating inflatable airships with propaganda posters of candidates painted on the sides. At that time, she thought they were movie stars because they were all dressed in flashy clothes. She did not expect that they were running for election.
"The corporate system has made everyone miserable," Lila said to Pan Ruiyin in as simple a sentence as possible. "Now the citizens have to build something new - a new government to serve the citizens."
"What's the use of parliament?" Pan Ruiyin wondered.
"It is better for a democratically elected parliament than Nobuhiko Ohara alone to give orders at the municipal center. At the same time, the parliament will also formulate and enact more laws."
"Law!" Pan Ruiyin found it funny, "What's the use of law?"
"Yeah." Lila nodded, "If you think so, then so be it."
"No," Pan Ruiyin said hurriedly, "please explain it to me. I really don't know what the law is."
“As long as you have enough to eat and drink, and your family has a surplus of food,” Lila said, “you will want to have a stipulated public guarantee to ensure that you can eat today’s food and drink today’s drink tomorrow, and that the surplus food will not be plundered.
Therefore, law is the need for order that arises after meeting basic needs.”
"You don't need to tell me this." Pan Ruiyin nodded.
"In fact, in the civilized era, the pain of humans and the pain of witches can also be attributed to the lack of legal protection."
"Oh?" Pan Ruiyin became interested.
"Without laws, people will always live in fear of their rights being violated. The same goes for witches. Many witches are killed as soon as they are born because the law does not provide for the legitimate rights and interests of witches."
"It's true." Pan Ruiyin was uneducated and needed to understand many concepts for the first time.
"In short, the law forces every intelligent life to adopt a rational way of thinking." Lila answered calmly, "Any society needs clear laws. Without laws, there is no civilization. The same is true for the six million people in Anjiu City. The citizens'
The demand continues to increase, to feed, clothe, and entertain the family, and then they hope to have a law to defend their legitimate rights."
"I understand now." Pan Ruiyin spread his hands, "It's just a good thing. So will the mayor really delegate power?"
"Public opinion is strong and people are putting pressure on the mayor. He has to do this, otherwise he will be killed sooner or later." Lila nodded, "But we all know that Nobuhiko Ohara is a man who is good at playing both sides. He will fill the parliament with elites and
Entrepreneurs, crowded with useless moths.”
"You are also an entrepreneur." Pan Ruiyin said happily, "You will definitely be chosen."
"uncertain."
"Then if others join the parliament and we don't, wouldn't we become eucalyptus fish meat?" Pan Ruiyin thought of those fish.
"After all, I am a witch." Lila said without emotion, "We conducted a poll and found that only 7% of the citizens approved of a witch becoming a council member of Anjiu City."
"So afraid of witches." Pan Ruiyin laughed, "Do they let witches vote?"
"Most witches are assets of the company and do not have the opportunity to vote." Lila nodded, "...Humans' attitude towards witches is not fear, but pure hostility. They once systematically massacred witches. If they
If I have the chance, I will definitely do it again.”
"Fortunately, we are in this safe city." Pan Ruiyin said.
"There is danger here too." Lila looked at the approaching riot shuttle in military green paint on the horizon. "A group of killers are waiting in the square in front of the Civic Center and want to take my life. They made it public in the anti-witch organization on the Internet.
Declaration, saying that if I dare to appear in the square of the Civic Center, they will kill me in front of everyone."
Pan Ruiyin's heart skipped a beat.
"Kill...kill you?" Pan Ruiyin was confused.
"A group of assassins, supporters of human purism," Lila adjusted her white formal jacket, "They hate all witches and have been promoting them on the Internet for a long time."
"Nisto Company has done so many good things." Pan Ruiyin was surprised. "Without the wastelands we opened up, half of the people in the city would have starved to death. There are also various attacks and daily security. Not all
Is it because of your merits that they are stupid enough to want to attack you?"
"We don't understand them, just like they don't understand us." Lila said, "Just do your own thing."
"Then let's find them and kill them to nip them in the bud," Pan Ruiyin said.
Lila shook her head, which made Pan Ruiyin feel weird.
Afraid of attackers, Pan Ruiyin secretly thought. Then why not just kill the hidden attackers? Lila can tell which ones are the villains. As long as they find out and kill them all, everything will be fine. But Pan Ruiyin's wisdom is far deeper than that.
For details, we can only accompany Lila to the Municipal Center first.
When the shuttle arrived, Lila's adjutant Elodie came down to salute them.
"Commander!" she said with great enthusiasm, "Major Elodie of the Nistor Corps reports to you!"
"Let's go." Lila responded briefly, and Elodie returned to the shuttle and resumed driving. Pan Ruiyin and Lila boarded one after another.
Looking at Elodie, Pan Ruiyin nodded secretly. She liked this hairy girl very much. She was not tall, but extremely strong, ferocious, and tenacious. She was a typical female soldier.
"The troops going to Silla will be leaving soon." Lila glanced at Pan Ruiyin, "Are you going?"
"I have something to do." Pan Ruiyin reiterated his stance, "I want to protect the Real Gold Building."
"Yeah." Lila didn't say much.
The shuttle arrives at the Civic Center of Anjiu City.
Like an art museum, this building is painted in white and has an avant-garde design. The municipal square has been surrounded by people and is very noisy. At least 20,000 people have gathered here. The crowds are crowded and the noise is endless, as far as the eye can see.
Various robots and drones were flying around. It was still daytime, and the neon colorful paint was not obvious yet, but it was eye-catching enough.
"Aren't there any of our people?" Pan Ruiyin glanced at the security guards on the ground, "I was worried that the security work would be very troublesome in such a big place, but it turned out that none of the staff were wearing Nisto company uniforms."
"The mayor hired the Intercontinental Secret Service," Lila said, "and now he wants to drive Nesto out of power."
Get rid of Nesto Corporation.
"We are still climbing up, and we haven't stood firm at the top yet, and he is so anxious." Pan Ruiyin laughed.
"Because he was afraid," Lila said. "Nobuhiko Ohara felt that his life was in my hands, and he felt very uneasy."
"After all, Nisto Company has developed faster than everyone imagined." Pan Ruiyin nodded.
"Rapidly growing power means risk and jealousy," Lila said.
"I will protect you. Any assassin will be killed by me. I kill people very quickly." Pan Ruiyin said hurriedly.
"Yeah." Lila said calmly.
Seeing the agents of the continental joint service below, Pan Ruiyin put on his helmet and armor, adjusted his voice changer, turned on the anti-scanning device, and put on his work badge to avoid being picked out.
The shuttle landed on the apron, and the continental joint logistics drone came up to conduct routine inspections to ensure that they did not carry weapons of mass destruction before they were released.
"Disgusting," Pan Ruiyin turned around, "Look at those drones taking pictures."
"Most assassins can enter with props such as silenced pistols." Lila walked on her own, "This is difficult to guard against, and many people hide their weapons in their bodies."
"Then I'll have to wait and see." Pan Ruiyin nodded.
They entered the venue.
"You're still here." Nobuhiko Ohara came from the parking lot on the other side, "Those anti-witch assassins are very arrogant, aren't you afraid at all?"
"Of course I'm not afraid," Lila said.
"Please be careful, the killer may be hiding in the crowd." Nobuhiko Ohara persuaded him kindly, then turned and left.
"The killer he arranged!" Pan Ruiyin said keenly, "Look at him like that!"
"Who knows." Lila's expression remained unchanged, "Maybe he knows nothing."
Each parliamentary candidate has to give a speech. Lila has prepared a speech and wants to introduce it in front of the public. If she can get the support of public opinion, she will become one of the actual controllers of the entire city and officially enter the core power of Anjiu City.
circle.
"Hey, Lila!" Katsuragi Asa walked over cheerfully. She was wearing a dark red formal dress and greeted Lila with her exaggerated robotic arm.
"Hello, Miss Katsuragi." Lila walked forward and whispered to Pan Ruiyin behind her, "Asa Katsuragi definitely has a seat, and she has a much greater advantage than us in this regard."
She is the boss of Aizu City, so of course she will be chosen by the people of Aizu City. Pan Ruiyin knows it in his heart. Aizu City is also an inseparable part of Yasu City.
Katsuragi Asa kindly helped Lila lead the way and brought her to the location decided by Katsuragi Asa. Many of her key members and gang members have joined Nisto Company, which is also a gratifying thing for her. After all, those rough people
If people are lazy and doing nothing on the field all day long, it is better to go to Nisto Company to learn some military discipline.
Kongté and his members of the Byrds placed benches near the square for citizens to watch the speech.
"The soldiers of the continental joint service are overpopulated." Kong Tai held a chair for them to sit on. "It's simply not decent. I even saw a soldier who kept giving me an annoying silly smile, as if I knew him very well."
"After all, it is a large intercontinental company," Lila said, "and the money spent on marketing and publicity exceeds the actual quality."
Lila said nothing after that, sitting on a bench, waiting for the candidates to give speeches one after another to win the support of the people.
This was the first real public affairs event in Anjiu City. The citizens were very excited and each held a camera to broadcast the event live.
The waste pickers association also sent some people to watch the scene. They are not citizens of Anjiu City, but they hope that the candidates can mention some commitments about cleaning up garbage and promoting environmental protection. They are eager to establish the city's first environmental protection law to slow down the
The accumulation speed of the garbage mountain.
As for who should be selected, this matter has been discussed tens of thousands of times in advance on local forums. Selecting representatives is a very interesting thing. For the first time, the residents of Anjiu City found that they can also express some opinions on public affairs.
It feels like discovering a new world. The candidates are marketing themselves like professional performers.
Now is the last day of the New Year's holiday, and they have to go back to work after voting. Thinking of such a terrible fact, all candidates who promised to extend the holiday received a large number of pre-votes.
"Everyone is quite excited," Asa Katsuragi said, "but I heard that in the end, Nobuhiko Ohara will choose whoever he wants. Is that true?"
"This is a matter full of speculation and gambling." Lila closed her eyes. "Many people want to ride on the heads of the six million citizens and issue orders. Naturally, there are many insider operations, leaving room for power rent-seeking."
"Then what should we do?" Katsuragi Qian read the public opinions on the local forum, and her tone was full of worry, "Many people are questioning Nisto Company and making some critical remarks. The security service of the venue has also changed companies this time. How can it be wrong?
Didn’t you say we were going to fall?”
"Let's listen to what the mayor said first." Lila looked up at the center of the square.
