Chapter 1075: The Smoke of Congress (Part 1)


The ugly maglev did not turn a corner, and it drove until it stopped at the gate of the Parliament building not far from the Reinhardt Palace. The door of the cab opened, and an old man came down from it. At the same time, the door of the back compartment also opened, and an old man appeared inside. It's just that the old man in front looks healthy, while the old man in the back is older, wearing a loose robe and holding a cane in his right hand.
This maglev car comes from the southern suburbs of Greenwich. The person in front is naturally the old Watt, and the person behind is the Republican veteran Terry Ferdinand who has given up his status as a member of the House and spent many days at home.
Old Watt’s mental outlook has not changed much compared to when Tang Fang visited Greenwich. Terry Ferdinand’s condition is very bad. He has lost a lot of weight compared to before. The large robe can no longer cover his weakening body, even when standing still. There, his arms and legs were trembling slightly, as if a gust of wind would blow him down.
After helping the car door to come out, he waved to Old Watt, thanked Absolutely for his help, and stubbornly walked to the hall with the crutches.
He walks very slowly, but the sound of the crutches hitting the ground is very powerful, perhaps to tell others that he is coming, but more likely because there is a lot of anger and need to find a place to vent, so the smooth ground becomes that Unlucky.
Old Watt walked behind him, his face tense, and he didn't say a word the whole time.
The government agent in charge of the security mission of the Capitol was surprised by what happened to the old gentleman who asked for leave due to illness. Suddenly remembered to return to Congress, could it be that he came to see those old friends?
Ms. Merlin and Congressman Terry, who have been performing reception tasks at the door for many years, are nodding acquaintances. Seeing this respected Republican old man arrives, they plan to go up to say a few words, which is almost a set. However, he just came out from behind the counter, glanced at the expression on the old man's face and couldn't help but flinch back.
Old politicians like Terry Ferdinand, Tom Linsendal, and Lu Yuankui have seen many strong winds and waves, and have experienced many ups and downs in the ocean, and they have long developed the habit of being happy and angry, even because of certain things. Worry and anxiety will never let this face become a barometer.
But today’s Terry Ferdinand is different from before. As long as he’s not blind or stupid, he can clearly see the anger on that face. Even the amiable old Watt is cold and cold, making people unable to feel the slightest temperature, as if Everyone in this world owes him a lot of money.
No one dared to provoke those two people, the sound of crutches hitting the floor reverberated in the lobby, bang, bang, bang... dull and depressing.
Mei Lin looked thoughtful, thinking that something must have happened. Otherwise, how could this old man who left his government affairs and went home to recover from a raid on the Capitol? There are rumors from the outside world that he has an incurable terminal illness, and he is dead soon. Maybe one day he will get his pigtails. That being the case, as a person who is about to meet the of death, I should make my last days more relaxed and comfortable. How can I worry about work? It must have happened to make Terry Ferdinand such a big fire... Is the front line in a hurry? The Dortmund tragedy repeats itself?
These thoughts circled in her mind, and Mei Lin waved to the agents at the door to signal them to continue their mission, then picked up the telephone receiver at hand and told the people in the meeting hall that Terry Ferdinand had arrived.
Old Watt did not follow Terry Ferdinand into the meeting room, and chose to wait in the lounge area outside. The parliament sent a female staff member with gold-wire glasses to entertain him. Even so, he couldn't ease his tense face. She was still cold to anything, even the smiling face of a beautiful girl.
In that small small conference room, Terry Ferdinand was sitting at the very end, next to a few Republican congressmen. The shock on his face had not faded, and it seemed that he had just learned some major secret.
Lu Yuankui was sitting not far from Terry Ferdinand, obviously near the air outlet of the air-conditioning system, but the sweat on his forehead could not stop pouring out, his eyes flickered when he looked at the conference table. As if doing something wrong, he dared not raise his face to see people.
After Terry Ferdinand retired to the second line in the name of recuperating, Lu Yuankui and another Republican old man, Larry Cook, became the leaders of the Republican Party in Parliament. If the Adam government made some sensitive moves, he and Larry Cook should be the first to know. But he didn't know anything about it... At least Lu Yuankui said he didn't know when facing Terry Ferdinand's questioning. He didn't expect that the Adam government and the Liberal Party would do such appalling deeds.
Is he really unaware? Still not informed? Choose to open one eye and close one eye? Or participate in it? No one knows, only he himself knows the true situation.
When Terry Ferdinand coughed violently for the third time, and some people around looked at it with very worried eyes, the door of the meeting room opened. Members of the Liberal Party, the current Speakers Peggy Gasol, Tomlinson Dall, Adam Oliver, Secretary of State Reis Edinan, Secretary of Defense Rene Ismail and several other Liberal MPs Filed in.
Lu Yuankui looked at Tomlinson Dalle, and then looked at Adam Oliver. He wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say a word. He just sighed heavily and looked dispirited.
Terry Ferdinand didn’t wait until Adam Oliver took a seat, tapped the table hard with that crutch, and said angrily:
Who let you do this? Who allowed you to do this? You have thought about the consequences of doing this. No? Confused... really confused..."
He didn’t know if Lu Yuankui, Larry Cook, and others really didn’t know the crimes committed by the Adam government against Tang Fang. He really didn’t expect that the Adam government would make such a decision. The legion made a deal and set up such a trap to frame Tang Fang. Because of Mie Nakamura’s sacrifice, as well as his hard work and sincerity, Tang was moved just now and chose to join the Star Alliance, fighting side by side with the weakest country in the Helumbel region, and attacking the Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire. And helped the Star Alliance Navy win several victories, and for the first time made the people feel that they stood up and won their dignity.
Every patriot was encouraged and rejoiced. Fortunately, the Star Alliance had a strong partner. Fortunately, the young man who was suspected of being a descendant of Ypsilon chose to stand by his side and become a compatriot under the national flag.
But the result? The Star Alliance betrayed its allies, ignoring Captain Tang’s kindness, ignoring his efforts, and ignoring many Star Alliance people like Nakamura Mie, who moved Tang, and chose to join forces with the evil forces of the Anubis Legion.
If it weren’t for Dalton Evelyn’s death to reveal the failure of the battle, causing the Liberal Party to mess with patriots like David Conan, he might still be buried in the drum, wondering how to escape in his dilapidated villa. Over the sight of Old Watt, drink a few more sips, even if he pays his life for it. In short, to find such a friend for the Star Alliance, even if he died, he would smile at Jiuquan.
After learning about this incident through a special channel, he almost died of anger. Fortunately, his old friend and personal doctor Wade arrived in time, so there was no life worry. The reason why Old Watt put on the expression that people all over the world owed him money was not actually angry with the Adam government, but with him.
As a person who has been buried in the skull by the loess, he has to be angry at the stupidity of those on stage, even in the last stage of his life, he still puts national interests first. His character killed his son and let his wife die in depression, and now he almost killed himself. When can he live for himself?
To old Watt’s loud questioning, or protest, Terry Ferdinand’s answer was, "Old man, don’t be so excited, I believe that day is not far away."
The day he lives for himself is not far away? As the person who knew Mr. Senator best, Old Watt understood what he was talking about, so he didn't say anything, and his no longer bright eyes were slightly red.
Tomlinson Daller and others did not know what happened to Terry Ferdinand, and chose to remain silent in the face of his questioning. They are not surprised that Terry Ferdinand will soon learn about what happened to the Gambez star system and ask this, because to some extent, the old man opposite is Tang Fang’s agent and iron in the Star Alliance government. supporter.
It was he who contributed to the trade cooperation between Morningstar Casting and the Star Alliance Navy, and he also contributed to Tang Fang's appointment to the National Security Council as an honorary consultant. It can be said that without Terry Ferdinand, there would be no Tang Fang to join the Star League citizenship, and there would be no subsequent victory over the Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire. He is the person who has the most reason for anger in politics and holds accountability to the Adam government.
Adam Oliver's hand on the table was clenched and released, then clenched, and then released, and finally raised his head, without evasing his angry gaze, and slowly said: "If you give me another choice Chance, I will make the same decision. As for the consequences...I know very well."
"No, you don't know." Terry Ferdinand looked very angry, and continued to hit the tabletop with his indescribable crutches, which was very rude, not at all like the demeanor he had shown before in Parliament.
Tomlinson Dahler still remembers when they were still young, when Terry Ferdinand moved a stool and hit people because of a bill to deal with illegal immigration. At this time, it seemed to be back in the past, but Terry Ferdinand was already. I can't move the chair, I can only use the broken piece of wood to smash the table. It looks a little ridiculous, but besides the ridiculous, it makes people miss the time. Such old Terry...how long can he live?
"We understand your feelings, and we know how much effort you have put in to make Tang Fang join the Star Alliance." Peggy Gasol said, "But we have no choice...for this country."
"For this country?" Terry Ferdinand said, looking at the speaker who was a few years younger than him: "I know you looked down on Tang Fang from the beginning... No, it should be said that from the day you became a parliamentarian, you looked down on it. Those with dark eyes and dark skin are just that you are always good at concealing your narrow nationalism. With regard to Tang Fang, I am skeptical of your position... Your Excellency King of Talkers."
Peggy Gasol used to serve as the governor of the Alxa planet before becoming the speaker. In his speech before being officially elected, he once boasted that Haikou would turn Alxa into a planet comparable to the Cybhal Star of the Dolanx Republic. Beautiful and rich planet. However, he not only failed to turn Alxa Star into a beautiful and rich planet, on the contrary, the economy of the jurisdiction was significantly reduced, and the tourism development plan was still dead. However, there is one point worthy of praise. Under his strong governance, the crime rate of Alxa Star The sharp decline has allowed him to gain a good reputation, and people have selectively ignored his original exaggeration.
After so many years, many people have forgotten what happened in the past, but Terry Ferdinand has not forgotten, still calling him a big talker as he did when he became angry.
In Peggy Gasol's current status, saying this kind of thing seems disrespectful to people, and it shouldn't be. But no one expressed objection to this. First, the party was wronged, and it could be said that he owed Terry Ferdinand a lot from his personal feelings. Second, as a respected old parliamentarian, relatively young politicians like Adam Oliver acted as courtesy. Minute.
Tomlinson Daller stood up and said: "I know you are angry right now and feel that we have betrayed you~EbookFREE.me~ but you shouldn't doubt Peggy Gasol's loyalty to the country and the people."
After saying this, he winked at Secretary of State Reis Edinan. The handsome man walked from behind to a control terminal in the corner of the room, inserted the chip into the data port, and pressed the play button.
A beam of blue fluorescence was cast on the ceiling, intertwined in mid-air into a holographic three-dimensional image. The whole picture is divided into two parts. The content on the left comes from the space-based facilities of Dortmund. The Deep Submersible fleet conducts orbital bombing, causing nuclear bombs to fall on the surface like rain, and flames and explosions chaotic the green planet. Next is the horror after the nuclear explosion... the fallen high-rise buildings, fallen dead bodies, the black rain falling from the sky, the clothing fluttering in the wind.
The content on the right is a screenshot of the edited battle between the Karilan-Ruttonado No Man’s Land and the Ayalos-Koplin-Srandall No Man’s Land. You can hear the soldiers roaring like thunder cannons. When the sound is heard, you can see the battleship transforming into fast-expanding flames in the darkness, rolling away the icy corpses.
The end of the nuclear explosion and the war scene is the reaction of the Star Alliance society. On the one hand, there are the eyes of those who lost their loved ones, and the crowd walking on the street. The child put on the guillotine...not the gallows, it was the guillotine. (To be continued.)
