Wu Yu is a young man who doesn't say many ruthless words.
He took off the firearm from his waist, turned on the safety, and gently placed it on the long curved table in front of the venue.
"He told me that the reason why he was eager to escape was not only because of leaking company secrets, but also because of another matter. That matter was very serious. He thought he had been exposed, so he ran away desperately."
"At first, a congressman approached him and hoped to privately customize a bionic man from him."
After hearing this, everyone present remained relatively calm.
Although it is not legally allowed to customize androids privately and bypass the blue serial number, many people are aware of the existence of this gray industry.
They are also well aware of the rot of both companies.
As for what those androids are customized to do, no one knows, otherwise it would be called private customization.
"That congressman is here today. His name is Ren Jun."
In the crowd, a middle-aged man in a suit stood up.
His face looked a little unsightly.
"Mr. Ren, I investigated your capital transactions and found that there are problems with many amounts. Even if you successfully laundered money through many channels, it... is still too obvious." Wu Yu said.
"Are you investigating my personal funds without permission?" Ren Jun stared at Wu Yu, "As a citizen, I have the right..."
"Sorry, you have your rights, and I also have mine. As the second-level executive officer of the Thirteenth District Executive Bureau, I have the right to directly investigate your property status without your permission."
Wu Yu patted the table.
In fact, members of parliament are not considered ordinary citizens, and Wu Yu does not have that right.
Investigating a congressman is a very troublesome matter. If there is no definite evidence, it requires long-term negotiations and dealings with the other party's legal team.
But Wu Yu's attitude was very tough.
The only cases that can make him act so tough and desperate are cases related to androids.
"I will hire a lawyer and sue the enforcement bureau of the Thirteenth District." Ren Jun said coldly.
"Mr. Ren, you may not have that chance."
Wu Yu picked up the gun with the safety on the table.
The venue was quiet.
He walked towards Ren Jun step by step.
All eyes were on the two of them.
Even the Councilor from Floating City, who had always looked indifferent, looked over.
"What do you want to do? This is the Parliament Building. Do you want to shoot a sitting member of Parliament in the Parliament Building? Do you know what the crime is?" Ren Jun shouted.
"Mr. Ren, you don't have enough confidence. I think you also know the reason why you don't have enough confidence."
Wu Yu raised the gun in his hand.
The black hole of the gun was pointed at Ren Jun, and a dangerous aura spread in the air.
"Wu Yu, tell everyone what is going on first!"
There is someone in the council who has a good relationship with Wu Yu.
After all, they have all embarked on the path of entering politics, and there will be more or less intersections in the future. Moreover, Wu Yu performed very strongly among the candidates for this term. Except for the bionic man Lu Wen, there are few in the same term who can compare. Fuck him.
"If Mr. Ren really has a problem, he must give evidence and be escorted to interrogation first, and then raise it..."
"boom!"
The sudden gunshot shocked everyone present.
They all thought that Wu Yu raised the gun just to threaten Ren Jun to say something.
But... everyone got it wrong.
Mowu City has been established for nearly eighty years.
This was the first time a sitting member of Parliament was shot dead in the Capitol.
The person who fired the gun is the next congressman.
"There is a situation where you can kill the opponent directly."
Wu Yu said lightly.
After his reminder, many congressmen responded.
If the suspect is a bionic, he can indeed be killed directly without going through those procedures.
But Ren Jun is a human councilor!
"He... the blood on his body is blue!" someone exclaimed.
Wu Yu's shot hit Ren Jun's abdomen.
If it were a human, he would be screaming and falling to the ground by now.
Ren Jun didn't, he was still standing, gurgling blue blood flowing from the wound.
This blue color is harsh.
The blue that belongs to androids.
"Now everyone knows that there are bionic people in the parliament."
This is what Mowu City Council is most afraid of about androids.
With the same face and familiar tone, no one knows whether the colleagues, friends, relatives, etc. they spend time with day and night have been replaced by bionic people.
"A year ago, Councilor Ren Jun privately customized a bionic body exactly like his own. The purpose was simple. He wanted to be lazy and hoped that this bionic man could handle daily affairs on his behalf."
Wu Yu slowly turned around and returned to the front of the parliament.
It's not over yet.
"His goal was achieved. This body really helped him deal with many daily tasks, and... permanently replaced him." Wu Yu put the gun on the table, "We found it in the basement of an old house in the suburbs. The body of Representative Ren Jun was found, and according to judgment, the time of death was ten months ago.”
Many members looked at each other.
In other words, they have been working with an android for the past ten months.
"This matter is not over. In the next ten months, a large amount of money suddenly appeared in the account of Congressman Ren Jun. He tried all kinds of money laundering methods in an attempt to avoid supervision. The money eventually turned into Truck after truck of bionic supplies were sent to the no-man’s land.”
A very serious matter.
Many people know that Baker City, another city in the south, is so corrupt that it has almost turned the android forces in the no-man's land into a regular army.
Unexpectedly, Mowu City also gradually developed this trend.
"Of course, what's interesting is that he then found my prisoner, the blue engineer at the time, and customized two other bodies. These two bodies are also members of Congress."
There are two more MPs.
The entire venue could hear the needle drop.
Everyone present was looking at the people around them out of the corner of their eyes, fearing that they would suddenly be kidnapped by a familiar colleague.
"Mr. Ren, why don't you tell everyone who they are?" Wu Yu looked at the android who was still standing.
That gunshot wound was strategically placed.
Before the blue blood drained out and he shut down completely, the android Ren Jun could still speak for at least ten minutes.
Ren Jun stared at Wu Yu and his expression calmed down.
"Sure enough, there can be no mistakes in doing things. Once there are loopholes, they will be exposed one day." He sighed, "I shouldn't have let that blue engineer survive in the first place. I wanted to keep him because he would be useful in the future..."
"Mr. Ren, ten months of lurking is enough. Presumably the android organization in No Man's Land has obtained a lot of inside information." Wu Yu said lightly.
Everyone knows about the actions of the android organization in No Man's Land during this period.
Those androids are making overtures to the Parliament.
They want to win a reputation among ordinary people, implement their plan step by step, and finally reach the goal - build a city.
"Our appeal is very simple, it's just peace." Ren Jun looked at him calmly.
"With the city, you will slowly grow, and as your power grows, your ambition will slowly grow, and you will not be satisfied with the barren no-man's land." Wu Yu said.
"No, bionic people will not have ambitions." Ren Jun said: "Don't use your human ideas to speculate on bionic people. We just want a place to survive."
"Really? Then why..."
"This young man is called Wu Yu, right?" The old councilor from the floating city at the front suddenly stood up.
This was the first time he spoke since arriving in Mowu City.
He was already too old, and the years had cut wrinkles on his fair skin.
It seemed that every word he spoke consumed a lot of his energy.
Luo Xunfeng stepped forward to help him.
"Young people are formidable. When I was young, I never had such a sharp edge." He smiled and walked to Wu Yu with support.
The old congressman stretched out his pale and withered hand and gently pressed the gun in Wu Yu's hand.
He turned to look at the entire venue.
Although he is old, no one dares to ignore this old congressman.
Eighty years ago, the members of the Supreme Council were all in their twenties and thirties. They proposed the idea of nine cities in a world destroyed by war, and the order they established continues to this day.
"I've been through war, when I was little."
"The rockets flew over my head and exploded in the shelter not far away, destroying everything I knew."
The old congressman's voice was infectious.
"In just three years, the whole world was in disarray, and no one I knew was spared. In these three years, I experienced displacement, betrayal by friends, and pain that engulfed me all the time."
"So after the war is over, we will destroy all the powerful missiles left behind. We just hope that there will no longer be such wars in this world."
Regarding those missiles, the consensus now is that they were destroyed.
However, some people say that they were buried in an unknown place, quietly waiting for future generations to excavate them.
"Perhaps some of the congressmen present have been replaced by bionic people, but you don't need to panic." The old congressman said sincerely: "If everything goes well, you will no longer have to live such a wandering life in the future."
"I came from the Floating City for peace."
This sentence surprised everyone.
Among the members of the group, two people stood up.
They are the two that Ren Jun customized later. They also replaced the original human councilors. Now they have been exposed, and there is no use hiding them anymore.
"Of course, peace is just a proposal of mine." The old congressman said slowly: "After all, the nine cities are independent, and it is not easy for the floating city to interfere in the affairs of Mowu City, but... I only hope that all congressmen can allow this The three androids left."
…
no man's land
Many androids sat together and told stories about their past in human society.
These stories are all similar.
It was nothing more than being brought back by his employer, but in the end he was awakened by abuse and escaped from human society.
In the minds of the two companies, although androids are sold to ordinary people, all sellers are only called employers.
Because every android will eventually be recycled and destroyed.
If the current employer dies and no one else inherits his android, the android will be recycled.
"Actually, my employer was very kind to me and did not abuse me. He treated me as a family member. But then he suddenly died of a heart attack. I was afraid of being recycled and destroyed, so I ran away secretly."
One of the androids sighed.
"For so many years, I have always wondered whether one day I would have the opportunity to go back and lay a bouquet of flowers in front of his tombstone."
Androids are slightly affected by time.
So once they have feelings for humans, whether it's friendship or love, in the end they can only watch the people they are familiar with slowly grow old.
"There's news!" Someone suddenly shouted in the distance.
"what news?"
Many androids looked towards that place.
Soon, a message spread among the group of the Android Alliance.
"As for the two visitors to the floating city, they came with the will of peace!" A bionic man said excitedly.
"Very good!"
"But... I don't know how much impact the floating city can have on Mowu City."
"It should be very big. It is the Supreme Council. In theory, all parliaments are under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Council."
This night, joy spread in the no-man's land outside Mowu City.
Ma Bo and others gathered together, all looking happy.
Being able to get support from the Floating City was beyond their imagination.
The road ahead suddenly became clearer, and even the howling wind at night became a little gentler.
"What about the follow-up? How is the follow-up going?" The leader of a large organization asked impatiently.
"Three of our compatriots left after they had finished their meeting. One of them was shot. It was Wu Yu who had an extreme hatred for androids. But it didn't have much impact. That compatriot The four chips are still there and can be resurrected at any time." Ma Bo looked at the message sent back.
The three androids are still in the city.
In order to save time, they did not rush back in person, but contacted the android organization on the edge of the no-man's land.
That organization drove all night to deliver the news.
"The old congressman from Floating City is quite sincere. He has also experienced war, so he does not want to see war coming again."
“He convinced the council of Mauu!”
All the androids couldn't help but be happy.
Happiness really comes suddenly.
Just yesterday, they received news that someone was coming from the Floating City, possibly to eradicate the android organization outside Mowu City.
But today, all worries are put to rest.
"Could it be fake? What if they are trying to deceive us? Think about what No. 9 said." The leader of an organization said in time.
"No, just today, a message was released from the Floating City." Ma Bo looked at everyone, "The Floating City recognized the existence of Eden and called it the first city of bionic people!"
If there is a first city, there will naturally be subsequent cities.
"I've been planning for so long, and finally I've arrived at this moment."
"None of you knows where No. 9's organization is. It's time to invite him back. There is no need to argue anymore. We are all compatriots."
