"Strike crazy?"
After hearing the report from his staff, President Robert could not help but widen his eyes in surprise.
The staff member nodded: "General Stryker left the White House last night and returned directly to his home. More than two hours later, fierce gunfire suddenly broke out in his home. When the bodyguards rushed in, he held He armed himself with a gun, stood in the living room and screamed like crazy, and his son Jason was shot to death randomly."
President Robert pinched his eyebrows worriedly. In a sense, Stryker was actually his person. It's just that in last night's conflict, Stryker's performance was too poor and what he did was too excessive. Coupled with the strength shown by Sherron and the threat of Benjamin, he favored Sherron.
But even so, President Robert did not intend to completely abolish Stryker's position. Instead, he wanted to take the opportunity to give Stryker a blow and make him understand that only by following him closely can he retain the power in his hands. But he didn't expect that Stryker would be so fragile, and he went crazy when he got home.
"Are you sure you're crazy?" President Robert looked at the staff member suspiciously, "Are there any other doubts?"
The staff member knew what President Robert was asking. After all, Stryker offended a lot of people last night. Not to mention Xie Lun, who would take action at the slightest disagreement, his uncle and aunt, including Director William, were not easy to mess with.
It's really urgent, assassinations are also the specialty of the National Defense Department and the NIA.
"I have checked carefully, and so far, I have found nothing suspicious." The staff member replied cautiously, "First of all, the time was too short, and secondly, there was only General Stryker at the scene, and no other suspects were found."
The staff lowered his voice: "The most important thing is that after a physical examination, General Stryker did not have any unknown pharmaceutical ingredients in his body. And experts diagnosed that he suffered a sudden mental disorder and required hospitalization."
President Robert snorted: "Is he angry? Think about it, since he became a general, when has anyone dared to scold him like that, let alone kill him directly? What's more important is that he has not yet If you fight back, it’s no wonder he’s going crazy.”
The staff member chuckled softly: "Actually, that's fine. General Stryker has been admitted to a mental hospital for treatment, so Director William and Acting Minister James shouldn't be chasing after him fiercely, right?"
President Robert nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "Order someone to take over the mess left by Stryker, especially his secret research. This bastard actually kept a mutant by his side as a bodyguard without telling me. .”
Of course, President Robert would not have thought that all of this was Sherron's fault. On the surface, it seems that Stryker went crazy and beat his son to death. In fact, his son, the Master of Illusion, has been controlled by Arken.
The purpose of leaving a body was to fool the police into thinking that Jason was dead and just an ordinary person.
Moreover, Stryker's laboratories were emptied out by Sherron overnight, including the precious Adamantium alloy. Sherron plans to wait until Iron Man builds the steel armor in the future, and then make a set of Adamantium alloy to wear.
President Robert was giving instructions when suddenly the phone on his desk rang. He picked up the microphone, his face changed slightly and he said with a smile: "Mr. Speaker... Oh, you are too polite... Okay, okay, then I will accept it."
After putting down the phone, Robert's face turned gloomy and he said to the confidant: "Someone will send you a gift in a while. Go and get it yourself."
Although the staff member was a little strange, he still went out obediently. A few minutes later, he came back with an unattractive black box and placed it respectfully in front of President Robert.
"Okay, you go down first."
After he was alone in the office, President Robert opened the box. Inside was a glass bottle only as thick as an adult's thumb, and a note next to it.
President Robert picked up the note first. This is the instruction manual. After reading it, he picked up the glass bottle, looked at the light red liquid inside, and chuckled: "This bastard, Stryker, has hidden deep enough. He even hooked up with Mr. Speaker of the Congress."
On the instruction manual he threw on the table, there was a red and white equilateral octagon pattern printed on it.
"Umbrella Company?"
President Robert narrowed his eyes and whispered softly.
At the same time, in addition to President Robert, President Benjamin, Director William, Mr. and Mrs. James, and other senior government officials all received such a gift.
Of course, many people are not qualified to receive a call from the Speaker of Congress, but the recipients of gifts all revealed the same information.
First, this bottle of potion is the latest product developed by the Umbrella Company. After taking it, it can be guaranteed to "restore youthful vitality" within one year.
Second, I hope that everyone will let Stryker go. After all, his family is ruined and he is crazy. There is no need to eradicate the situation and leave him alive.
All of a sudden, these senior officials understood that General Stryker's real backer was Mr. Speaker of Congress, and that his secret research had achieved certain results, at least making breakthroughs in some aspects.
For those senior officials who are getting older, being able to regain their youthful vitality is indeed more important than anything else, so they joined the staff of the Speaker of the National Assembly at the same time... No, they are more determined to support the Speaker of the National Assembly.
After all, the Speaker of Congress has served seven presidents and is about to be the eighth. His influence has spread throughout the United States and even most of the world.
Even though Benjamin was unwilling to do so, he was unable to antagonize the entire American political arena, so he could only hold his nose and accept the gift.
But just when everyone thought that the matter had settled, suddenly the direction of public opinion changed strangely.
First, there was a discussion on the Internet about whether "mutants" are suspected of racial discrimination. In just 24 hours, at least 100,000 people commented. Then there were discussions on radio, radio, and even television, and columns were opened to extend the topic to "the relationship between mutants and ordinary people."
When all the people's attention was drawn to this, Louise, a well-known reporter from the "Daily Planet", dropped a bombshell news, that is, the US military has been secretly conducting illegal human experiments on "superpowers" , the process is so cruel and perverted that even Hollywood R-rated plasma movies cannot be filmed.
Louise's exclusive news report not only aroused the general public's sympathy for the current living conditions of "superpowers" and anger against the government's illegal actions, but also established a very important point, that is, "mutants" and "mutants" Words such as "nigger" and "nigger" have become taboo words.
Anyone who dares to say it in public will be waiting for social death.
Because in the relevant documents disclosed by Louise, it was clearly stated that "mutants" are not humans, but genetically mutated species. Like pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep, they have no human rights and can be hunted and tortured at will.
In the West these days, let alone dogs and cats, even pigs cannot be bled, and lobsters cannot be boiled alive. This is in the name of protecting the rights of animals. Since even animals have so-called rights, then "mutants" are not even as good as animals
This is a naked reversal of society, which is intolerable to all conscientious people.
