Chapter 6: Wildfire, Spreading (3)

Politicians no longer use the serious look of suits and ties, but wear colorful and green without exception, and the flexible display on their bodies plays "The One Above Bless North America" ​​in a loop.Their hairstyles are even more bizarre, and they are different every time they appear. Dirty braids, pot covers, conical buns, and explosive heads are only what you can't think of. Without them, you dare not use them.

What's more terrible is that in order to show their "political correctness", these people sometimes win votes from minority groups and sometimes deliberately wear anti-gender clothing:

He is obviously a white man in his 60s, but he puts on hot pants and mesh clothes like a young hot girl; the three middle-aged black women in the family have to use iron plate armor + bubble skirt to please people of uncertain gender. The electrician’s shoes are decorated with colorful LED flashing lights; the new Latino political star, who is the main environmental protection brand, simply sticks the whole body with fresh bushes. Whenever he gives a generous speech, there will be a bird with tumbleweed-like hair. It's a happy bug pecking on mud's arm......

These are what Suo Zhongwu saw along the highway when he stopped to charge.His hypocritical performances to politicians, of course, are not cold at all, but North American people are eager for these routines.At noon on April 17, Suo Zhongwu met an "excellent voter" who was completely immersed in the "P&G" gas station on the outskirts of Livingston.

He just wanted to buy a sandwich to fill his stomach.But the cashier girl with freckles and gothic makeup is more ugly than ghosts, but she is holding Suo Zhongwu like a treasure, and she has to sell her favorite politician to him."Please give A Kong a thumbs up!" In order to win Suo Zhongwu, the little girl leaned forward, deliberately revealing a piece of Bai Yingying on her chest:

"Trust me, it's worth the money!"

Suo Zhongwu recognized this product."Akong" is one of the internal candidates for the Elephant Party. The poll support rate is quite high, but he looks completely the lead singer of the band, with a colorful comb on his head, and he has no less than a hundred nails from his forehead to his toes. The hoop, the upper and lower fabrics of the whole body add up, and it is not even enough to make a vest.

As for the public speech of this product, it is no different from a live concert.The supporters in the audience are shaking light sticks and throwing clothes. The sky is full of laser beams, and the stars and stripes on the background of the stage can distinguish him from ordinary singers.

"My family, my friends, and my soul buddies all support Akong!" The female clerk almost pushed the phone to the tip of Suo Zhongwu's nose.She stared at the holographic projection advertisement with eyes full of stars, and the implant nailed to the eye socket flickered frequently:

"Look, look! Akong is different from other politicians, 100% real inside and outside! Look, he is a real guitar master, he can push the picks beyond the limit without prosthetic limbs! Sir, I know you are not in his Constituency, but I still trouble you to help us send Akong to Peanut Village! He will definitely be able to change this country, as he promised,'forever exceed the limit'!"

Suo Zhongwu met the little girl's request. Not only did he like and follow the repost of Sanlian, but he also ordered the latest album of "A Kong" on the spot, just to keep his ears clean.The latter was so excited that he wanted to offer a kiss, but was politely rejected by Suo Zhongwu. He didn't want to be involved in this kind of thing anymore, whether it was a politician like a rock star or an obsessed brain fan.

The overwhelming bombing of campaign advertisements made Suo Zhongwu's faith stronger.He got off Highway 94 in the west of the city, and from there he drove all the way north, toward the golden wilderness in the sun.[How dirty, hidden behind the brilliance of the surface].

In the beginning, the pickup trucks were all well-maintained asphalt roads. From time to time, luxury supercars passed over from both sides, throwing down a large amount of smoke and dust.Slowly, the asphalted road turned into a gravel road, and the wheels drove up and clicked; a few hours later, the gravel road became a bumpy country dirt road. The wild fox dared across the road, almost like the bumper. Intimate contact.

Standing on the side of the road is a group of hired chicken farmers, discharging residues for the biogas digester.They raised their eyes to the pickup, and a red-faced young man whistled.It's no wonder that an old broken car with an out-of-state license suddenly appeared in the countryside off the beaten track. Who wouldn't be curious?

Suo Zhongwu didn't say hello to them, and didn't even sound the horn.All that should be added is added, there is no need to provoke irrelevant people.Pickup continued to move forward. At sunset, he had already driven into the deserted grassland. The abandoned water tower quickly retreated outside the window, and the rusty tank was stained blood red by the sunset.

There are military restricted areas nearby, under waist-high grass, tens of thousands of "intelligent anti-personnel/vehicle unmanned combat systems." No matter how farm workers or addicts secretly gather, they all know not to rely on them. Too close, otherwise the foot will be broken, and the body will be dead.But Suo Zhongwu didn't worry about this. After training his eyes, he could see where each landmine was buried, and he could easily plan a safe route.

Those flapping-wing drones that pass through the air from time to time and look like bats are also not difficult to deal with.Suo Zhongwu had already practiced the stealth method to perfection. He was able to make himself transparent with his pickup, and he could even hide the rut in a short time without leaving a clue to the other side.There was a group of drones that would hit the top of a pickup truck just one foot away. They were still deaf and blind and could not notice anything. The shotguns on the rotating pylons did not move.

In this expensive minefield, the only obstacles to Suo Zhongwu are the two snake-bellied barbed wire fences.Although they are old and even the warning signs have rusty holes, they can still puncture tires easily.In order to avoid the spikes, Suo Zhongwu had to turn off the engine reluctantly, first got out of the car and jumped over the obstacles, and then took the posture of Master Yoda to release the "force" to carry the pickup from the air.

There was an episode in the middle. When the pickup landed behind the wire fence, he almost ran into a four-legged robot dog, and Suo Zhongwu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.The thing seemed to come out suddenly, there was no sign before, but it could also be because the surrounding grass was too dense, which obscured its movement.

Suo Zhongwu did not provoke the robot dog.He waited until the uninvited guest left before restarting the vehicle.However, there was no more danger afterwards, he and Pickup went unimpeded all the way, and drove to the target in the blink of an eye.

last step. Suo Zhongwu grinned, while humming the out-of-tune "Good Day", while driving on the long-lost asphalt road. He did not drive the lights, but adjusted his eyes to low-light night vision mode. After successively climbing two gentle slopes, he finally saw the reinforced concrete building complex.
