Master Swindler
Chapter 65:
With 70,000 hostages, this should be the largest hijacking incident in history.
Whether on or off the court, it was originally the live broadcast of the Heroes Cup final of the century event, and it brought the world's attraction here.
There is no need for the off-site media to inquire, and Lu Qingjia does not hinder the on-site media's contact and reporting with the outside world.
So after hearing that shocking speech, countless people saw the chaos on the scene and the panic emerging from the audience.
But it didn't take long for the restlessness to gradually subside.
One is that there are police forces on the scene that have already refined the area to maintain order, and the other is that the digital ability players have activated their abilities.
The ability of a few people can emit calming gas from their bodies, although they are not strong enough to cover the entire venue.
However, the huge hot-air balloon inflatable column used for decoration in the arena also broke open, and it contained calming gas that had already been stored, which allowed the police on the scene to pacify the possible chaos with maximum efficiency.
At this point, where the Heroes Association and the top management are still unclear, this is basically a long-planned terrorist activity involving many forces?
The president of the association shouted angrily: "Are you crazy? As the police and special forces, your mission is to protect the people, but now you are in trouble with terrorists. Look at the national emblem on your uniform."
Lu Qingjia said: "Deserving to be the president, the representative of the Justice League, he speaks brightly and unyieldingly."
"You, who have the right to transfer many heroes in your hand, have reduced the scene where countless heroes are to be held hostage. Should you feel guilty for your incompetence?"
"you--"
"Come on, give orders." Lu Qingjia opened his arms: "Let the heroes fight for honor, swear to the death not to be a prisoner, swear to the death to defend the glory of the hero's cup, and prevent evil elements from tarnishing anything. Although it is possible to sacrifice, but the spirit Forever, the dignity and honor of a hero will last forever without any moment of dust."
"Come on, give an order."
The president was trembling with anger by Lu Qingjia's aggressive and aggressive attitude. He glanced at the heroes around him. Under such a situation, almost everyone avoided his gaze.
Not to mention that the heroes who just came to watch the game shrank silently, trying to reduce their sense of existence.
It was the few young and bloody ones who were held down by the people they knew when they wanted to get ahead, and signaled the other party to look at the surrounding force guards, but in the end they could only hold back angrily.
Let the mud make extremely humiliated.
The camera faithfully recorded this scene, and the hostages and off-site spectators who had originally expected the association were disillusioned.
Leaving aside the off-site evaluations, many spectators stood up and said loudly: "Fight against the gangsters, are you not heroes?"
"So many people together can't protect ordinary people. Are you a waste?"
"Is all our money raised is waste?"
These voices represented the thoughts of many people on and off the court, although the voices were suppressed after a while.
"Quiet!" Lu Qingjia said before the microphone.
He looked at the faces of the heroes around him, most of them humiliated and embarrassed, but he also pretended not to hear the accusations.
When everyone thought he would pick up the plane and continue taunting the hero, they heard him say: "I noticed."
"Whether it is the audience on and off the field, it seems that there is an illusion."
"When the heroes are in danger for their lives, they choose to protect themselves instead of fighting for unrelated people. Isn't this your own choice?"
"I chose it myself, so what's your complaint?"
If someone expresses such a point of view in ordinary times, he will definitely be laughed off, and no one will even remember this sentence.
But now as the biggest horror leader, and with facts proved that the heroes are boneless.
Using silt to give unparalleled attention in the world at this moment, then the weight of what he said is different.
At least some people have fallen into reflection. Although instinctively they still think this is a terrorist's fallacy, the facts are weak.
So a lot of anger and catharsis were poured into the inaction associations and heroes.
For a time, there was an endless stream of disappointment and humiliation towards the association and heroes on the Internet. Countless people declared that they would no longer support heroes after this time.
Lu Qingjia then smiled and said: "It seems that you are not conscious of this. While using heroes as a spiritual entertainment and pastime, you also expect others to fight for your life to protect you."
"Hasn't the hero's usual business show already met the effects you need for it? Why do you want more? In the era of traditional idols, do you place such expectations on idols?"
"No? So why do you ask for heroes so naturally? After all, they are neither policemen nor soldiers, and they do not have the sense of responsibility inherent in their profession. At the beginning, the establishment of the hero organization was just a person with power, a pure one. It’s just to help others."
The hostages present did not dare to question Lu Qingjia, but it does not mean that the online audience did not dare.
Separated by a network cable, the other party can't do anything to them.
So after Lu Qingjia's words fell, the Internet was full of abuse and rebuttal.
"This thing is just joking, what kind of hero is a person who can't save people"
"Have you forgotten the rules that you must memorize on the day you get the hero license?"
"Police and soldiers are not treated as good as your heroes. They still sacrifice their lives for the people. It turns out that so much money and such good treatment have brought up so many cowardly and shameless things."
"I used to say on the Internet that heroes' rewards have been getting higher and higher these years, and some people chase me to squirt, all in exchange for their lives, how is it now?"
Lu Qingjia is also a pervert. He not only does not shy away from those remarks, but even connects them to the big screen.
All the heroes on the scene saw the evaluation of the outside world for a time, and they were very embarrassed.
Lu Qingjia was only interested in one message: "Oh? Everyone thinks the hero's income is high?"
Speaking, a data table appeared on the screen, which divided the hero's income level and number of people.
High is naturally amazing. The endorsement of a top-class hero is that the lifetime income of middle-class families can't match.
Popular traffic and the second and third tiers are still beyond the reach of ordinary people. Although the fourth, fifth and sixth tiers tend to be ordinary, they can still ensure a good life based on today's average salary.If you are lucky enough to receive endorsements and advertisements, then the market for a year will be good.
But then down, it looks pitiful, especially the recognition is not high, the task performance is not eye-catching, most of the eighteen lines set off.
Just like the traditional entertainment industry, the glamorous is always the top level, and this number, although the number of popular heroes seen every day is dazzling, but really counted, the income exceeds the average salary level, including all the top-class heroes, the number is small. Pitiful.
Like the silt messengers in the past, it is the norm for many practitioners in the circle to live in cheap rental housing and get a guaranteed salary.
After seeing this form, the audience was not convinced. Instead, they said that heroes speak with their strength. Which industry does not have competition?Who lives without pressure?Now that you have chosen to join this line, implement professional ethics.
Lu Qingjia smiled, as if he was very happy.
"Choose to enter this line? It sounds like you have given the capable people other choices."
The smile on his face disappeared: "I am relieved that someone has pointed out the key to the problem."
"The long and tedious conversation ends here for now."
"It is the final of the Heroes Cup. I said that nothing will hinder its fair and smooth progress."
"The matching machine has long been passive. It is not a random matchup at all. Therefore, the 13 heroes in the finals are invited to use guessing to decide whom to play against."
Everyone thought that this guy was an anti-hero, and when he took the opportunity to vent his long-repressed dissatisfaction and distorted ideas, he turned his head and started the game.
Who still wants to watch the game at this time?The heroes of the final frowned, not knowing what he thought.
One hero sneered and said, "You let the hostage play against the robbers? Does this make sense? Where is the fairness?"
Bullet followed up and said: "It's just like what was fair before. When the old thing announced that the mud disqualified the game just now, you laughed so proudly."
When the other party choked, they saw the Muddy Angel, Sweetheart Chocolate and the other two heroes stretch out their hands: "Come on, guess the box."
Restricted by others, they had to follow suit and sorted out. The first round of 13 people happened to be Lu Qingjia bye.
He smiled and said, "It seems I was lucky, so let's start the first game."
He looked at the two heroes who looked a little worried and smiled: "Don't worry, I promise in front of all spectators in the world that once the game starts, no unrelated people will intervene in the event."
"Athletes who do not belong to the same arena, once they enter the arena, are considered violations and are immediately disqualified."
He had an ordinary tone, but his expression was conceited: "After all, I want to win the championship, but I don't want to be criticized for being untrue."
No one on or off the court knew what he wanted to do.
However, unlike the hostages held in the venue, most of the audience is not life-threatening. Although they sympathize with the live audience, more of them are irrelevant.
After the long-awaited finals officially started, it didn't take long for the online atmosphere to be mobilized.
There are too many hostages at the scene, and there is a bubble of absolute defense, and it is a large-scale organization, even if someone wants to carry out a rescue, it will not even have enough force to suppress it for a while.
Even if they were ready, they didn't dare to act rashly, so the entire venue formed an island. All those who wanted to negotiate outside were rejected by Lu Qingjia.
The first matchup was very exciting. The strength of the head hero was essentially a gap compared to the average performance of the selection camp.
Moreover, the top-ranking heroes have never even fought evenly in front of the public. A showdown is gorgeous and thrilling. Not to mention the spectators off the court, many in the court are also attracted by this wonderful battle, temporarily forgetting the danger of their own situation.
Six consecutive games eliminated six heroes, but the six brilliant duels also seemed to have played down the impact of the hostage incident.
Lu Qingjia even saw the audience after the second game, the basic atmosphere was no different from the beginning, and they were already fully engaged in the excitement of the game.
It's a world of entertainment to death.
He smiled and stepped onto the stage to join the six remaining heroes: "A few have worked hard, and the six eliminated are also glorious."
"In the next time, please let the six heroes who have experienced the battle take a break and adjust to restore their strength."
"During the intermission, we have prepared a wonderful leisure program for the audience and the audience in front of the screen. Please enjoy it."
I don't know if the finals went smoothly, and the unrelenting competition of the heroes gave the audience an illusion.
He thought that although Muddy made things extreme, the Heroes Cup should go on smoothly, so he didn't think much about his so-called midfield show.
Many people even plan to take the opportunity to go to the toilet.
At this moment, the audience was bored. I thought that cheerleaders or singing and dancing stars would make an appearance, but saw a documentary-like picture on the big screen.
Along with the explanation, the reasons for the evolution of the capable person are introduced in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.
The first appearance of the capable was more than two decades ago. After the first appeared, there have been reports one after another at a certain period of time, and the appearance of the capable is almost overnight.
There are divergent opinions on the reason, but the official has not given a specific explanation.
After so many years, society has long been able to adapt to the existence of people, although only a small part of the population, but this special group is also well integrated into modern society.
I just didn't expect to see the secret here.
The original cause was the invasion of a group of extraterrestrial bacteria more than 20 years ago. They were randomly attached to humans, and part of the infected people became awakened.
This is a bit like the beginning of many doomsday scripts, but the luck of this world is that people without mutations have not become zombies at the same time.
Human mutation is naturally a major event that shocks the world. Even if there are only a small number of people, it also allows others to see the hope of evolution.
At that time, genetic research on capable people became the hottest topic.
Of course, crimes have spawned in this, but fortunately, before the contradiction between the supernatural beings and ordinary humans was irreconcilable, a joint organization formed by the powerful of various countries appeared to protect the life safety and ordinary rights of the capable people, and social contradictions were eliminated. excitation.
At that time, heroes who were capable and wanted to use their abilities to maintain social stability and help others formed a group.
In the cities where they are operating, the crime rate has plummeted and public security has improved. There are spectators over forty or fifty years old at the scene.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but say to the people around me: "The hero at that time was really good."
On the spot and off the court, lamenting that the hero is at the end of the game, and when his backbone is weak, the style of painting on the screen has changed.
The organization established by the powerful and powerful in many countries approached the League of Legends and expressed its willingness to provide funding for them to make hero activities more efficient, attract more capable young people, establish the value of actively helping others, and promote social development.
The heroes believed their promise and established the Heroes Association with them.
The operation of the association and the cost of assisting hero activities are very high. As more heroes are absorbed, it is definitely not realistic to rely solely on the funding of the powerful.
It is inevitable that the Association of Heroes becomes a self-sufficient profit organization.
At that time, people's gratitude and admiration for heroes was still relatively pure, but as the heroes compromised with the Association step by step, things changed.
In the beginning, it only authorized the sale of live rescue videos to TV stations and online platforms, and then produced hero figures, and then heroes with better images received advertising endorsements, which affected the selection criteria and business distribution of heroes.
Obviously everyone acted at the beginning and just wanted to help others. Later, heroes with low popularity and commercial value did not even have too many mission opportunities.
Can you imagine?Helping others, curbing crime, and saving lives, this time actually requires permission.
Some heroes reacted and felt that Hero Rescue had been contrary to their original intentions, reacted strongly, and fought hard with the Association.
But they failed!
I don't know where Lu Qingjia got the video material. The top heroes of the first generation, the spirited faces of young people appeared in front of everyone.
There are still many viewers who remember them, they are younger, as long as they are hero fans, they will also archaeological heroes of the past.
Many people fell into nostalgia, remembering that several of the top heroes at that time did withdraw from the association overnight, announcing that they would no longer carry out hero activities, and returned the hero license, leaving behind many regrets and fans.
Therefore, the impression of them, whether they are new or old fans, those heroes are idols of the white moonlight level to them. Even the heroes were cowardly, many people think that if they were the heroes at the beginning, they would definitely not That's it.
At this point, some people seem to have grasped the meaning of the "choice you made" said by the muddy envoy.
Sure enough, the next few heroes were unable to recover and were forced to retire.
The Heroes Association is in charge of funds and operations. With the increase in the number of registered heroes, the early batch of heroes is no longer irreplaceable.
In addition to the early heroes, many have been fascinated by the rich applause of flowers and the life of drunken gold fans. Where can they still remember the original ideals, and even satirize the heroes who were forced to leave because they did not know how to work, unable to adapt to the times, and were destined to be abandoned.
Seeing this, ordinary audiences feel uncomfortable, not to mention fans who regard those heroes as Bai Yueguang.
It turns out that my idol left in such a downturn.
At this time, I didn’t know who spoke first, and suddenly noticed, “Isn’t it the ability of the bubble maker to block the soap bubbles in the audience?”
"I also feel like it. I saw it up close that year. The bubble maker's ability is absolute defense. Before he releases his ability to puncture the bubble, no matter if it is a fire, a knife, a fire or a smoke, it cannot damage the bubble. People."
"Because of this ability, he has saved the lives of countless people. I remember that there was a fire in a shopping mall, the passage was congested, and thousands of people could not get out. It was he who saved the lives of these people."
"Then my dad is among them."
"The appearance of the bubble envoy means that everything the mud envoy said is true?"
"I don't believe that Bubble Envoy will go with terrorists."
"Look again, see again."
This is also the psychology of many people off the court at the moment, and they have a high degree of recognition for those heroes who were really pure and simple in the early days and retired with regrets at their peak.
Different from looking at idols today, I saw the inside story of the other party's retreat at this time, and used their abilities to prove it.
At this time, many people couldn't help but start to reflect on whether the nature of this hold-up was the same as they thought at the beginning.
After the veteran heroes left, the Association of Heroes became more unscrupulous. After several years of development, it replaced the traditional idol industry and formed a huge heroic idol interest chain.
They succeeded. This is the victory of capital. Sure enough, when capital came to the world, every pore was dripping with dirty blood.
If Muddy wants to express this, most viewers think they understand his philosophy.
But a very small number of sober people understand that even if the association's underwear is stripped clean and their ugliness is exposed to others, the status quo will not change.
After all, they are the ones who control the capital and the market. What if a few people are handed over for the sake of ordinary people's anger?
But then they realized that what they were thinking was too simple. Since the Silt Envoy dared to take action and dared to kidnap 70,000 people, what they were trying to do was naturally not the painless result.
After the documentary was finished, the sludge appeared on the podium, ignoring the ugly faces of the association and management.
Raising his hand and pressing it to signal the scene to stop whispering, then smiled and said: "Don't rush to make a statement, this is just the beginning of the midtime show."
"What we want to say, the truth about the entire hero industry, the treatment of all mutants, the promotion and guidance of certain people, and the bullying of supernatural powers by the whole society, this is just the beginning."
Many people frowned upon hearing this. If the so-called bullying by the whole society means that most people are bullying.
But for ordinary people, they don’t have the evolutionary advantage of mutants. Most people learn all their lives, and those with the ability have unlimited possibilities from the moment they are born.
Even the law has promulgated a lot of clauses to protect their interests. It is obviously a preferential treatment group in society?
But after listening to Lu Qingjia said: "When the situation is stabilized, a hero's association is established, so that everyone's impression of the capable is transferred to the hero."
"Some people have already laid out their plans."
"Look at the screen behind me. This is the newspaper and article that countless people advocating the superiority of abilities and advocating abilities as evolving humans from the beginning of the year to the present. They are naturally more relaxed and superior than ordinary people."
"Using the survivor's deviation, let people see the glorious life of heroes and idols and their high income. Those who instill the ability can easily be separated from the fate of the common people with a little effort. It is natural to think that those who are capable should be born excellent, if If you don’t enter the hero industry, you should respond to more expectations in schools and workplaces and be more efficient in the same working hours."
"But in fact, as I announced at the beginning, the well-paid heroes only account for a small part. If the denominator is replaced by the world's capable people, this number is even more pitiful, but it is used as a representative."
"It is true that there are many people with strong abilities, but most of the mutants have no ability to bring convenience to their lives and daily life. They have to be forced to raise their expectations and even the barriers to employment. The social conventions formed under prejudice have become commonplace, and it is already a great malice against mutants."
"Among ordinary people, no one insists that those with strong physique must learn to be smart. People with a good sense of music will definitely be good at drawing. If a certain talent is outstanding, it will surely be able to flourish with it, but it doesn't think so for mutants."
"Mutant people have difficulties in engaging in other industries, and those with outstanding abilities will choose to become heroes."
"This ingenious opposing creation can't make people accuse them of prejudice and discrimination. On the contrary, it seems to stand on the other side's advocacy, but it has achieved their ultimate goal."
Lu Qingjia's voice was calm and soothing, and his words were clear, word by word reached everyone's ears, plus all kinds of evidence that appeared on the big screen along with his words and rhythm.
Those accustomed concepts are under attack at this moment. It is not that no one has discovered this, nor is it that no one is self-reflection and admits their envy and jealousy of mutants.
Because no matter how you look at it, mutant people with abilities seem to be higher beings compared to normal people.
Many people think that this customary psychology is the root of human inferiority, and it is true, but at this time the sludge envoy told them with evidence.
This inferiority was actually deliberately guided, and one hand had controlled and guided everything many years ago.
Ordinary audiences are still like this, and other mutants, thinking about their experiences over the years, are even more furious.
At this time, they no longer regarded Mud as a terrorist, but instead felt that he was a revolutionary who was about to lead the reform.
For a time, the trend of the Internet has changed drastically, and countless people began to complain about their unequal experiences because of their ability.
"I just have a small flame at my fingertips. In addition to lighting a cigarette, it is not useful for a little fart. Besides, I don't smoke. Why do I have to be brushed down by not being good enough to find a job? Obviously my resume is considered upstream. In their eyes, As a mutant, it would be waste if I didn’t enter the national prestigious schools. The company’s colleagues caused fires due to improper operation, and they saw them with their own eyes. As a result, they had to investigate me first.”
"I can only make a little dirt bag. Since I was a child, I have never dared to get too close to people. Whoever the fucking fell near me first suspected it was my prank."
"Yeah, you should work overtime. Otherwise, you are a capable person. You are recruited for better efficiency. If you do as much work as others, what is the point of asking you? Don't you drive me two?"
After realizing that the unfair treatment for many years was a man-made conspiracy, the mutants were completely unable to sit still. Many people even came out of their homes, made banners with extremely high efficiency, and began to march.
People living near the venue also surrounded the venue, asking the association to give an explanation.
Countless people watched this scene.
The atmosphere was already like boiling water, but Lu Qingjia dropped another bomb.
"Someone wants to enjoy a series of benefits brought about by genetic evolution of mutants, but also to cultivate the mutants' spirit, and continue to create opposition within the mutants over the years to ensure that the mutants will not unite to fight for their due benefits. ."
"However, there is a question that I think everyone will be curious about. Although the number of mutants is small, it is a relative population."
"Mutant people will also get married and have children and reproduce offspring. Although they are discriminated against in their studies and work, they are very popular in the marriage and love market. Many people also hope that their descendants can become new humans after evolution."
"However, why is there a law stipulating that there is no restriction on the number of children born between a mutant and a mutant, and there will even be subsidies and rewards, but ordinary people and ordinary people, or mutants and ordinary people do not have this treatment.
"This regulation was once also evidence of the superiority of mutants going abroad. When it was first introduced, it caused dissatisfaction from all parties, but it was still enforced."
It is precisely for this reason that the proportion of mutants who marry ordinary people is not large. After all, marrying similar people can bring good living conditions through subsidies alone. The relative benefits of marrying ordinary people are much less. After all, the essence of marriage is Economic behavior.
"Why do those people limit the living space of mutants instead of adding to the genes of evolutionary people? Don't they worry that if mutants appear after their offspring and mutants intermarry, they will be trapped in the disadvantages they created?"
"Of course the people at the top are at the top, whether they are mutants or ordinary people, but I just want to prove to everyone why they didn't have such an idea that ordinary people would have."
Said that Lu Qingjia showed a malicious smile to the camera, and the senior officials of the association and those top capitalists immediately realized that it was not good.
However, they were controlled by others and could not stop Lu Qingjia from picking out the truth they most wanted to hide.
"Because they have tried it, the genes of ordinary people will never give birth to capable people. Only the combination of capable and capable can give birth to capable offspring."
"Someone has done statistics in this area, but they have all been restricted from publishing."
"Understand? The so-called hero idol, the so-called advantage of the capable person, the so-called halo at the center of the world."
"Even the top heroes present here, and the hero king produced by the game of the century."
"All of them are the despicable powers of a group of people who admire the ability. They want to use the ability as an opportunity to bring significant development dividends, and to ensure that their dominant position will not be replaced by better humans. The worms are kept in captivity in a social farm under their control, and the worms that are jealous and guarded create just the clowns that Su people see."
"Nonsense!" The president of the Heroes Association immediately stood up and retorted loudly: "It's ridiculous. Do you think we can control national policies and the entire social ideology?"
"Of course I can!" Lu Qingjia categorically said: "In capital countries to fund politicians, after the other party comes to power, he must fulfill his promise to pass a bill that is powerful for you."
"To create turmoil in the social state, let the above give priority to solving the hidden social dangers brought by those with the ability, you quickly took advantage of the emptiness, and the state's efficiency at that time eventually made the minority groups oppressed."
As he said, he smiled maliciously at the president and those old men: "So you think, why are the military troops here today?"
