President Robert smashes the television so he doesn't see Louise's follow-up interview with Yuriko.
After Yuriko Koyama finished her accusation, Louise, who was conducting the interview, finally asked: "So, Ms. Yuriko Koyama, since you were controlled by the military, who rescued you?"
"It was NIA Senior Detective Sherron. He rescued me and gave me the opportunity to tell the truth here." Yuriko showed a sincere smile for the first time since the interview. "He not only saved me, but also It freed me from control, so I want to sincerely say thank you to Detective Sherron here!"
Only then did the people wake up, yes, we still have Detective Sherron.
In fact, as early as when Sherron solved the Christmas Day kidnapping case, there were rumors that he was not an ordinary person. After experiencing the gold robbery, these rumors became more widespread. Now, although Yuriko has not stated explicitly that Sherron is a person with superpowers, the people now prefer that Sherron be a person with superpowers.
And the more powerful the better, there is such a detective who has experienced hundreds of battles, benefited the public, and is very familiar to the public, and becomes a superpower, which is more acceptable to the public than a strange superpower who suddenly appears. .
Soon, with the help of caring people, the news that Sherron saved President Robert from the nuclear explosion quietly spread on the Internet. For a time, the public's expectations for Sherron were even higher.
"Mr. President, in five minutes, the press conference will begin."
Frank opened the door and said to Benjamin.
"Thank you, Mr. Frank."
Audrey, who was choosing a tie for Benjamin, smiled at Frank. Frank nodded, exited and closed the door.
Benjamin sighed, looked at his beloved wife in front of him, and frowned: "To be honest, my dear, I don't know if what I did was right."
"I know what you are worried about, my Mr. President." Audrey smiled, "Actually, I just need to ask you one thing. Nuclear weapons are dangerous, but can you give up?"
Benjamin sighed: "But nuclear weapons are not just weapons, but... superpowers are human beings, and the human heart is the most elusive."
"Aren't nuclear weapons in the hands of people?" Audrey shook her head, "In my opinion, people are the easiest to control, because most people are controlled by needs or desires and have feelings. Communication is possible. But once nuclear weapons are launched, they are truly doomed."
With that said, Audrey finally picked a red tie and began to tie it on Benjamin.
Benjamin allowed Audrey to fiddle with him and said in a deep voice: "I'm just worried, will the future belong to ordinary people or people with super powers?"
"Aren't people with superpowers human beings?" Audrey asked, "Are people with superpowers not human beings in your heart?"
"Of course that's not what I meant."
Benjamin said quickly.
"I know you don't think so, you are just afraid of the unknown future." Audrey patiently adjusted Benjamin's tie and said softly, "But isn't my husband a man who strives to move forward?"
Benjamin laughed: "Dear, I am really lucky that I married you. Without you, I really can't imagine what I would be like."
"So you should be more grateful to the superpowers." Audrey reached out and touched Benjamin's cheek. "Don't forget, if it weren't for Sharon, I would have become a widow, and Jerry would have lost his father forever."
Benjamin's expression became serious, he nodded heavily, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, dear, I know what to do."
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Banning rushed in. When he saw Benjamin and his wife hugging each other, he quickly lowered his head and said urgently: "Mr. President, I didn't mean to do it, but there was an emergency... Just now There’s a press conference at the White House and President Robert is speaking.”
After hearing this, Audrey immediately stood up, picked up the remote control, and turned on the TV.
On TV, President Robert was wearing a suit and ties, facing countless microphones and cameras, and said with a serious expression: "...The greatness of the United States does not depend on a certain president or a certain high-ranking official, but on every one of our American citizens. Rely on their constant pursuit of a better vision... On this sacred land, the United States is always becoming stronger and better, but some recent events are destroying the image of our great country... "
"... But I can responsibly tell everyone here that the spiritual core of the United States will always be tolerance and unity. The actions of some despicable elements will never destroy this core... "
"... Whether they are white people, African Americans, Asians, people with powerful abilities, or ordinary people who make silent sacrifices, they should be treated equally and be protected by the Constitution and laws of the United States... "
"... But to protect this core, we can't just rely on words, but rely on all Americans. So I once again call on all Americans to participate and let us protect our great country... "
As he spoke, President Robert took a deep breath and raised his voice: "As mentioned above, I hereby announce that I have signed a presidential decree to establish a special team led by NIA Senior Agent Sherron to investigate this appalling incident. event."
"What?"
All the top government officials standing in front of the TV were stunned.
"And I will do my best to propose to Congress the establishment of a department specifically responsible for superpowers, and I recommend Detective Sherron to be the head of the department!"
After speaking, President Robert turned around and left without giving reporters any time to ask questions.
But despite this, President Robert's speech still caused great waves in the political arena and among the people.
Nowadays, public opinion is very unfavorable to President Robert. There are many people with ulterior motives who are shifting the focus of public opinion to him in an attempt to achieve their own ambitions, or to pour dirty water on President Robert.
To be honest, although President Robert did nothing during his tenure and was relatively indulgent in Stryker's actions, he really didn't know about the things Stryker did. After all, Stryker has been conducting illegal experiments since the Vietnam War.
Now that President Robert has issued such a tough statement and signed a presidential decree, many people's impression of him has greatly changed. Of course, many people at the top are dissatisfied with this and believe that what President Robert has done is an overstep and should be approved by Congress before it can be announced to the public.
However, as President Robert's staff said, Robert is still the president of the United States, and the laws he signed are still more effective than others. If you want to overturn everything he has done in the future, you can only have a new president.
But in the face of such public opinion, does the new president dare to overthrow him
"This old fox!" Benjamin clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "How dare he promise so much? Now he's putting all the pressure on me."
Audrey pinched her smooth chin and nodded: "President Robert has experts around him. This move is so clever and quick. Not only did he get away from public opinion, but he also brushed his mark in front of the superpowers headed by Sherron. It’s not easy to have good impressions and even pass the pressure on to us.”
Banning was behind him and asked in a low voice: "Mr. President, are we still holding the press conference?"
"Open, of course," Audrey said urgently, "Now is the time, the more we can't back down."
