Imagine the world

The lights went out again, and Ciel left his seat and stood to the side of the table.Another screen was placed on the wall behind him, and a 15-minute video material was played, which was just completed by Chulue...

"Stop it, don't play it anymore!" Only a few minutes later, Berkeley lowered his head, covered his face with his hands in pain, and made a pleading voice.

Charles didn't make things difficult for him, he signaled the staff to stop playing, turned on the light again and sat back at the table, slowly said: "Mr. President, this is your incorruptibility and integrity? It's like a palace built on quicksand !

I believe that you are really ignorant, and you really think you are clean and upright.A concept that my best friend once told me, you are like a good guy in the so-called gangsters, but we don't need gangsters, we need to eradicate gangsters.

We are not trying to tinker with this broken world. It is a corpse, irreparable and not worth saving.We want to build a new world full of vitality and vitality.

If the crime is not punished, the goodness will be pale; if the evil is not eradicated, the justice will be impossible.But we must first let everyone clearly see the crimes and evils in this world, so that we can understand the value of fairness.

As for you personally, we will put you in a job where you can earn a living.As for the Presidential Palace, it will be transformed into a Jili National Culture and History Memorial Hall.

This country does not have a cultural and historical memorial hall, and it seems that there is no real culture and history to be proud of, so everything starts now.

We will arrange a dormitory for you, and you will start as an ordinary librarian in the Museum of Literature and History, and follow the leadership to participate in the preparation of the Museum of Literature and History.During this period of time, some investigations and interrogations require the cooperation of you, the former president, at any time.

While working, you have to attend night school and accept ideological remolding before you can become a regular worker. The New Alliance has arranged special training courses for such people.

As a student in a special training class, you need to hand in a thought report every week. If you can't write, you can dictate.

In view of your situation, I can provide Yinwen thought reports within half a year, and then I hope you can write in Dongguo, it doesn’t need to be too complicated, and the night school will teach you. "

The things displayed in this cultural and historical memorial hall will tell people what Jili Kingdom was like, and how everything happened today?What role do you and I, all of us, play in this?

Including our conversation, the entire process has been recorded, and will be displayed in this memorial hall for people to view in the future, telling everyone what happened that night? "

Chapter 349 Translation

When all pride was gone, the only thing left for Berkeley was manners, and he always thought he was a man of manners.

But hearing Charles say that today's meeting has been completely recorded, as a historical document, it will be available for people to consult and watch in the future, Berkeley no longer cared about the final demeanor.

He couldn't imagine such a scene!In the future, someone will watch his meeting with Charles today in this cultural and historical museum transformed from the presidential palace, or in other places in Jili Kingdom or even the whole world, just like he watched the propaganda documentary just now, and taste the Every word, every expression.

He knows exactly how he behaved today, and how humiliating is this to him?

Berkeley stood up and knocked the chair behind him to the ground with a loud noise, but he didn't bother to help him, he took two quick steps and supported the table with one hand, his eyes were red, and his voice hoarsely directed at Xia Er growled: "You can kill me, or even take away everything from me, but you can't humiliate me like this! This is a private conversation, it involves human dignity!"

Charles also stood up, supported the table with both hands, lowered his head slightly, stared at Berkeley with a pair of big scary eyes, and said: "There is no personal relationship between us, and this is not a conversation between you and me. business.

Why did I come to see you?Because you wrote that letter to me, as the former president of Jili State, you invited me, the new leader, to discuss the future of this country.

Do you still think that this is a private conversation, just between you and me?Is it your personal problem that we have been discussing today?

I know your kind of person, I know what you're thinking, you think you've lost your dignity.But what you call the dignity you think you have, has it really existed?It's not that I made you lose it, it's that you never really had it!

Since walking into this room, I have only stated the facts and the truth, and if this offends you, then there is no need to say sorry, because it is entirely your responsibility..."

Whether or not the aura exists has always been a question of metaphysics, or to put it mildly, a question of psychology.But at this moment, any bystanders would feel that Charles's aura was in full swing, and even stared back at Berkeley.

Berkeley's hand left the edge of the table, subconsciously retreating step by step.He backed very carefully, kicked the chair with his heel and did not trip over, squatted down and helped the chair up again, and then sat back to the original position.

Charles just kept staring at him, and then said: "Do you know why I did this? Wait until a certain day in the future, maybe you and I will not be here, maybe we will still be here, but some people have forgotten what happened today.

Maybe they didn't really forget, they just deliberately confused the truth.They will call on you and people like you, and they will stand up and remake the story just to promote and praise you.

Just like the letter you wrote to me last week, someone will exaggerate how charismatic you are, what kind of demeanor and dignity you have maintained!

They will say, what a great president you are, how clean and upright you are, and everything you do is dedicated to benefiting this country.

They will lament your misfortune today and will attack me and people like me and declare what misfortune we have caused you.

There are so many gangsters in this country, so many officials you have appointed, and so many teachers and students at Jili University, how many good people are there, right?A good man who is enlightened and upright in their eyes!

So they still say, what kind of injustice has such a good person suffered?Because of the liberation of the new alliance, what kind of disaster and blow has it brought to these good people?

They will think that it is I and we who have brought disaster to you and to you.They will miss you and the era you ruled, and even want to restore that era, just because they want to be like you!

But I know very well what kind of suffering we have experienced.An old Mr. Mo once told me that pure suffering is meaningless, it is just suffering, and what we are doing today is to make the experience of suffering meaningful!

In the documentary I just showed you, Morrison's plantation was mentioned.And you remember the diplomatic note, Morrison's complaint.He complained about the loss he suffered, but ignored the crime he committed.

Today you are another Morrison, and I am Aden and Cuihua.

You are not familiar with these two names, nor do you know these two people?Because the duration of the documentary just now is too short, there is still a lot of content that cannot be introduced.

On Morrison's plantation last year, we rescued 97 slave laborers, one of whom was named Aden.He stayed in the plantation for three years, always looking forward to the hope of being rescued, and thought of various ways to save himself, but he did not give up even after his arm was broken and he was left disabled.

Isn't this tough quality noble?In my eyes, he has more dignity than you.

Aden disappeared four years ago when a local gangster recruited workers. In order to make a living and support his family, he got on a truck and was taken to Morrison's plantation. He has been missing since then.

The time when Aden was taken away happened to be the day when you returned to the country of Jili from Yin, and half a year later you became the president of the country of Jili.

Yading's wife is Cuihua. They have three children. After Yading disappeared, the youngest child died.Cuihua never believed that Aden left without saying goodbye... until the new alliance liberated Fiso Port, she finally waited for the rescued Aden.

Both Aden and Cuihua later joined the New Alliance, and their stories were also compiled into a stage play by the New Alliance, which was performed in various liberated areas under the name "Aden and Cuihua".

Mr. President, who should maintain the dignity of Aden and Cuihua, you or Morrison?No no no, you are the ones who ignore and deprive them of their dignity!

Cuihua is now the women's director of the Xinlian Jinsha Community, while Aden has signed up for the New Alliance Liberation Army, strongly demanding to go to the front line.

However, his left arm is disabled. Although we hired the most skilled healers, he was not completely cured. Therefore, he is not a combatant. He works as a civilian staff officer in the army and also serves as a translator.

He had learned Yin language before. During the three years in the plantation, he insisted on communicating with other slave laborers, always looking for opportunities to escape, and learning all kinds of skills he could learn. Mandarin..."

Hearing this, Berkeley was startled suddenly. He felt his right arm and half of his body go numb. There seemed to be an invisible tingling sensation, as if a lot of needle points had been pierced in... because he felt another person's gaze.

There was another person sitting in the room, right next to the two of them, translating Shire's Dongguo language into Yin language in the most straightforward way.

Berkeley ignored the interpreter just now, and didn't even look at this person very directly, but he still had the impression that there seemed to be something wrong with the interpreter's left arm, which had been curled up unnaturally around his waist and abdomen since he entered the door.

Berkeley has already realized that the translator that Charles brought today is Aden!He turned his head and looked over, meeting the translator's eyes...

Hearing what Charles said just now, there were tears in Aden's eyes, but the tears did not flow down. He just narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Berkeley, with clear crow's feet in the corners of his eyes.

Berkeley couldn't describe what kind of eyes and what kind of expression these were.

Yading suffered nearly three years of inhuman torture in the Morrison plantation, leaving him permanently disabled, but he remained awake and worked hard to live, without numbness or giving up, and even learned Dongguo.

His eyes at this moment are firm and deep, without any dodging!In fact, he also restrained all expressions.

But Berkeley felt a sneer in his eyes, as if he heard the sneer echoing in his soul, and the unbearable tingling seemed to be everywhere.

Berkeley just looked at Aden for a moment, then quickly looked away.But with just this one glance, the soul seemed to have been burned, and the strength of the whole body was inexplicably lost.

He broke out in a cold sweat, and suddenly realized that the conversation tonight had been going on for a long time, and he felt a strong sense of urgency to urinate, but he could only hold back.

At this time, Aden spoke, his voice and tone were very steady and calm, but if you listen carefully, you can still hear an imperceptible trill.Although he had been talking all night, interpreting for Shire, he finally spoke his own words.

"My surname is Xia, and my name is Xia Yading."

This was the first and last sentence he said tonight, and he just told Berkeley his name.

However, what Berkeley didn't understand was that this name was actually an Dongguo language name, which was given when the new alliance was doing resident registration. As for the surname, he chose it himself because Shire's surname was Xia.

After saying this, he stood up and walked out of the reception room with Charles.

Charles had been standing just now, and when Aden finished speaking, he turned and walked out without any unnecessary greetings when saying goodbye.

The two left, and another staff member came in and said to Berkeley: "You can go to the bathroom first, and then I invite you to watch another video learning material, which is a stage play called "Aden and Cuihua." "."

Berkeley didn't go to the bathroom. The glance he had with Aden just now made him feel like he couldn't stand up on his legs. He finished watching while holding back his urine.

The total duration of this "movie" is 10 minutes. The first 25 minutes are a stage play recorded by the New Alliance, which was performed at mass gatherings across the country.

As for the last 5 minutes, it is a simple documentary, which tells and records the crimes at Morrison Plantation, and introduces Aden and Cuihua in reality...

The meeting between Charles and Berkeley ended in this way.Charles said that the whole process of this conversation will be recorded truthfully for those who come later to inquire and watch.

The first batch of "latecomers" did not wait long. The next afternoon, accompanied by Hua Zhenxing and others, Yue Gaole watched the complete record of the meeting in the conference room of Wago Mining.

The video was shot from the side of Charles and Berkeley, and from the camera position opposite Aden, with one shot to the end.

Berkeley apparently didn't notice that the camera was filming, although it was easy to spot.Obviously, there was good radio equipment at the meeting site, and everyone's words were clearly recorded.

After everyone finished watching, the sky outside the window completely darkened, and it was past dinner time.

Chapter 350 The Great Leader

"Three days after Shibai, you should look at him with admiration! Today's Shire really looks like a leader of a country. Who would have thought that less than two years ago, he was still a gangster in the neighborhood gang?" This is what Yue Gaole saw. Sigh after finishing the video material.

"Xiare was not a gangster back then, and I'm afraid you won't find a few gangsters like him in the entire Jili Kingdom." Hua Zhen acted as an excuse for a friend he had played with since he was a child, and he really thought so .

Many things need to be looked back to find out how outstanding Shire is.

Ciel wasn't a "standard" punk, at least he never was.In the poor public education system of Jili Kingdom, Shire graduated from middle school.How many local aborigines are proficient in mental arithmetic, and how many of them have mastered English reading and writing after graduating from middle school?Charles is such an outlier.

He has been with his uncle since he was a child, and he has a lot of experience in mobilizing people to make troubles in school, but in the process, he has cultivated a group of hardcore confidantes, such as Gu Shuimen and Xia Changqing.

He also understands the simple truth that "the economic foundation determines the superstructure". He inherited his uncle's wine shop, and also ran a rubber plantation and a winemaking workshop. The capital of the backbone of the Datou Gang.

No one specially taught Charles these truths, he learned and comprehended them through observation.He also paid great attention to technological progress and productivity improvement, "invented" a new process of Erguotou mixed with banana wine, and developed a new product.

According to Hua Zhenxing's suggestion, he learned to test and control the alcohol content and sweetness of indigenous wine, formed the most preliminary standardized quality inspection system, and then served wine to the major bars in Port Fiso.The background of the big head gang also guaranteed his safety in the process of production and sales.

When other gangsters are doing extortion, stealing, sabotage, and repeated tricks to death, Shire's main energy has been engaged in business, production, construction, and strengthening his own strength.

Charles had long suspected that his uncle's death was plotted by Jin Datou, but he still forbeared, pretending to be ignorant, and continued to join Datou's gang.In a neighborhood like that, he had no other choice.

Jin Datou didn't pay attention to Shire, a kid at all. He just envied Shire's wine making business to get better and better, and tried to take the wine shop and workshop as his own... By this time, Jin Datou was already close to death. Far.

Charles has been waiting for an opportunity, and if there is no opportunity, he will try his best to create one.Jin Datou received black money and wanted to assassinate Dr. Rothschild.Under normal circumstances, even if a caring person wanted to save Rochester, he would not have thought that this would be an opportunity to kill Jin Datou and replace him, but Charles thought of it.

Shire took advantage of Hua Zhenxing. He knew that Hua Zhenxing had this ability, and he also knew that there were several old men with great powers behind Hua Zhenxing. He knew that Hua Zhenxing would save Dr. Luo and would inevitably conflict with Jin Datou.

Of course, Hua Zhenxing also realized that Shire used him, but he did not reject it, because he really wanted to save Dr. Luo, and to save Dr. Luo, he had to be an enemy of Jin Datou.

Hua Zhenxing also asked Shire at that time, if Jin Datou and his few hard-core confidants are killed, is Shire sure that he can take over the entire Datou Gang?Charles' answer is - no problem!

This shows that Shire has already made sufficient preparations, and even planned for many years intentionally or unconsciously, otherwise, even if Hua Zhenxing helped him kill Jin Datou, he would not be able to control the entire Datou gang.

Charles saw Princess Ketia, and when he came back, he regarded Ketia as the lover of his dreams and stared at her for several months. Although this sounds a little funny, it at least proved one of his characteristics—— How dare you think!

But Shire never dreamed that Hua Zhenxing and the old people behind him would make a magical turning point, allowing all members of the Straw Shoes Gang to join the Big Head Gang, establish a new alliance, and push him to the position of president of the new alliance. Officially opened the cause of the liberation of Jili Kingdom.

Charles is smart and eager to learn, but no matter how smart and studious a person is, his knowledge will be limited by objective conditions. Two years ago, he would never have thought of what he is today.But after he became the president of the new alliance, he also made rapid progress when he had the conditions.

What happened later proved another quality of Shire - he is also really capable!

Thinking of this, Hua Zhenxing suddenly realized another thing: there are so many indigenous children in the area, why did only Shire become his best playmate since childhood?

This of course proves Shire's foresight, he has long seen the value of making friends with Hua Zhenxing.But on the other hand, who does Hua Zhenxing associate with? Wouldn't the three old men, especially old man Yang, interfere and guide him?

Hua Zhenxing has never felt this, and can only say that the old people did it very skillfully, with almost no trace.The few old people may have seen the potential of Shire long ago, and also thought of a possibility that almost no one thought of.

During Shire's growing up, he should have been instructed by old man Yang and others.As long as they dialed a few seemingly unintentional words at critical moments, it was enough to benefit Charles for life.

Hua Zhenxing suddenly felt emotional. He claimed to be smart, and he dare not say that he was the smartest kid in the world, but at least he was the smartest kid in Feisuogang, right?But I didn't fully understand this joint until after watching this video today. It seems that no matter how smart people are, there are always things that they didn't expect. A "superior" like myself can't be too conceited!

Thinking of this, he took back what he had just praised for Charles: "Actually, Charles is still learning and improving. Many of the things he said to Berkeley yesterday were also taught by others."

Yue Gaole smiled and said: "Yes, I heard it, such as quoting Shen Zhuangyuan and Da Jinzi, your new alliance has a lot of talents! No matter how you say it, I think Charles is very promising.

It seems that you also think that he is competent as the leader of Jili Kingdom, otherwise, Boss Hua would not be able to sit here comfortably and play games pretending to be Walish. "

Hua Zhenxing: "This is serious business, not fun!"

Jogale seemed to want to tear down the stage on purpose, and said with a smile: "Look at Shire, what a big deal he is doing! As for you, as Varish, you are sitting in the office blowing the air conditioner, and you have nothing serious to do all day long. Just to compile the documents and materials, and then call Varish over to sign."

Hua Zhenxing: "From the macro to the micro, every position is very important, and someone has to be in charge."

Jogale: "Seeing that today's Shire is admired by the whole country, he led the new alliance to complete such a great pioneering work as the liberation of Jili Kingdom. And you, you don't even show your true colors, just replacing a small Varishgan Don't you have any ideas for daily chores?"

It was difficult for other people present to say anything, but Manman interjected: "Mr. Yue, you are suspected of provoking what you say. Who said that what Xiaohua does is not important? If it were someone else, I'm afraid it would not be able to do it well!"

Lian Na followed suit: "Those who can do this well may not be willing to do it."

Manman nodded and said: "That's right, don't talk about others, if you invite Mr. Yue to do it, what would you do?"

Yue Gaole quickly shook his head and said, "I'm talking about Shire and Boss Hua, why are you attacking me?"

Hua Zhenxing said: "My current job is not easy! A great magician who defected from Cambistine popped up out of nowhere yesterday. I almost lost my life. What do you think about this, Mr. Yue?" ?”

Yue Gaole: "Don't get me wrong, I never have the idea of ​​picking a ditch. I'm just curious, Mr. Yang's practice should be the way of quietness and inaction, how can he teach such a nosy disciple like Boss Hua?

Now it seems that Boss Hua has acquired the true inheritance, and everything has changed. Admire, admire! "

Hua Zhenxing: "The so-called quietness and inaction, you have to be quiet before you can do nothing. You can't talk about quietness in the garbage dump, right? And Mr. Yang didn't just teach me these things, and Mr. Yang was not the only one who taught me.

Then again, as you said just now, if Shire and the others hadn't done such a good job, how could I stay at Vago Mining with peace of mind? "

There is one more thing, except for the three old people who knew it well, Hua Zhenxing did not tell anyone else, and of course it is impossible to tell Yue Gaole.He came to Vago Mining to sit in charge, in fact, because of system tasks.
