Earth Era - v2 Chapter 412
In any case, Wang Hao never imagined that when he and his colleagues worked overtime and worked non-stop, and finally obtained concrete data and evidence two hours before the departure time, he would not be able to contact Minister Wu Wei.
The bursts of busy sounds resounded in Wang Hao’s mind like a life-threatening spell. During the live broadcast, the jubilant scene of the crowd and the cheering sounded from all over, made Wang Hao’s heart sink even more, and even made the world in front of him sink. Covered with a layer of black mist.
In the picture, the huge countdown is shrinking. Wang Hao kept praying that it could be lowered a little slower, and then a little slower, so that he would have more time to try to contact Wu Wei, but the change in the number was not based on anyone’s will. Wang Hao was almost in despair in his heart, and he almost saw the appearance of **** ahead, but at this moment, the communication was connected.
There are ten minutes left. But now, the Führer has taken the stage. Until the last 30 seconds countdown, the picture Wang Hao was looking forward to did not appear. When the camera occasionally swept across the audience, Wang Hao even saw Minister Wu Wei sitting there indifferently, as if thinking and listening, but there was no sign of getting up and going to stop the head of state.
“thirty!”
“Twenty-nine!”
Wang Hao closed his eyes in despair. But just a moment later, Wang Hao suddenly heard some noises in the live broadcast.
In the corner of the screen, Wu Wei suddenly stood up and walked straight to the stage. A young man who looked like a bodyguard immediately came to Wu Wei’s side, and then the two walked behind the scenes side by side.
The picture only appeared for a moment, and after a blink of an eye, the camera switched from covering the entire stage to a close-up view of the head of state. But in just a few seconds of the screen, Wang Hao had already seen that at the moment of approaching Wu Wei, the man who seemed to be a bodyguard stretched out his hand and squeezed Wu Wei’s wrist, and then Wu Wei was like a bodyguard. Like a child, he was taken to the rest of the place without the slightest resistance.
Wu Wei was taken away, the screen switched, and the head of state was still watching the countdown with interest, shouting the ever-shrinking number with the audience, everything was business as usual. Except for Wang Hao, who paid special attention, no one realized what had just happened.
So Wang Hao knew that it was over, it was over, and the last glimmer of hope was also dashed.
At the moment when the head of state bodyguard grabbed his wrist, Wu Wei’s mind fell into chaos. He never found a suitable way to communicate with the head of state. When the time had reached the last minute, he had no choice but to choose the most reckless and direct method, but was immediately blocked by the bodyguard.
These well-trained bodyguards, who are responsible for closely guarding the Führer, will not allow anyone without permission to approach the Führer. Even if you are a senior government official. But time is running out.
At this moment, Wu Wei seemed to have lost the ability to think, and seemed to have foreseen his tragic end. Knowing but not reporting, caused the head of state to make a major misjudgment, causing heavy casualties to human civilization. This responsibility is enough to make him directly into the quagmire and never turn over.
One step forward is a hero, one step back is a sinner. The difference between the two sides is only in these ten seconds.
Wu Wei desperately forced himself to calm down, and his thoughts were running wildly at an unprecedented speed. He suddenly grabbed the bodyguard’s arm tightly and said eagerly, “Give me your headset.”
At this moment, the two have entered the background. There were no onlookers, and the bodyguards also let go of Wu Wei’s restraints, but they were still on guard to prevent Wu Wei from doing the rest. As for the final treatment, it can only be finally concluded after the security and intelligence departments jointly evaluate Wu Wei’s behavioral motives and purposes.
But Wu Wei’s reaction was somewhat beyond the bodyguard’s expectations. After a brief hesitation, the bodyguard said coldly, “I’m sorry, you don’t have this authority.”
Wu Wei looked a little grim. He grabbed the bodyguard’s arm tightly, and said almost gnashing his teeth: “Quick, give it to me immediately, this is our last chance. I have an emergency to report to the head of state, and there is no delay for a moment! If there are irreversible consequences, You are responsible for this!”
Outside, the huge voice gathered by the thousands of people shouting at the same time clearly reached Wu Wei’s ears. But the enthusiasm and excitement contained in the voice did not infect Wu Wei at all, but made him even more anxious.
As a senior government official, Wu Wei also has a certain understanding of the security arrangements of the head of state. Whenever attending a public event, the security department will inevitably dispatch a large number of plainclothes to mix into the crowd to deal with emergencies at any time. There is a connection between plainclothes and plainclothes, plainclothes and command departments, and even in some special emergencies, plainclothes can directly contact the head of state.
The bodyguard in front of him must also have the ability to directly contact the head of state. Of course, this is only theoretical. Since Shen Qingyuan took office, as far as Wu Wei knows, nothing like this has happened.
The bodyguard frowned and said, “I need to ask my superiors for instructions.”
At this moment, Wu Wei, like an angry leopard, roared wildly: “It’s too late, now, immediately! All the responsibility is on me!”
Seemingly aware of Wu Wei’s urgency, or because he just contacted the head of state and would not pose a threat to the safety of the head of state, the bodyguard thought for less than half a second, and immediately pressed a few times on his wrist, saying: “Headset It’s an implanted design, and it can’t be handed over to you for use, and it can’t be heard outside of yourself. But I can relay your words. Well, what emergency do you want to tell the Fuhrer?”
Wu Wei shouted: “Tell the head of state, don’t set sail, don’t set sail! That will bring disaster to our civilization! I will report the details to the head of state in person!”
The bodyguard did not hesitate at all, and immediately repeated these words in a low voice.
“I have already relayed your words to the Führer. How to make a decision is up to the Führer to judge. Now, please cooperate with my work and stay here for processing.”
Wu Wei slumped on the seat, his fat facial features seemed to shrink into a ball, and he was only panting there. Outside, the countdown sound made by the thousands of people shouting at the same time was still reaching Wu Wei’s ears: “Six! Five! Four!”
The countdown is coming to an end.
The head of state stood quietly in the center of the stage, thousands of lights and cameras converged on him at the same time, and the eyes of the entire civilization, at least tens of billions of people, also converged on him. He still had that confident smile on his face as if everything in the world was under control, and his palm was still lightly placed on the huge red button.
The bodyguard’s words had clearly entered his ears. In these few seconds, he had to make a choice.
His every move was in the public eye. Any of his actions, even a slight change in expression, will be interpreted in thousands of different ways by people. So he knew that if he suddenly announced that he would suspend sailing, it would cause huge waves within civilization. This will not only make this launch ceremony, which I have prepared for a long time, enough to greatly boost the morale of the people, into a laughing stock, it will even seriously damage the government and even its own credibility.
However, the words of Health Minister Wu Wei were like a thorn in his throat. Shen Qingyuan also knew something about Wu Wei, and knew that although his ability was mediocre, he would never be someone who was aimless. What he does, what he says, must be justified and justified.
Setting sail will make the migratory fleet and human civilization bear certain risks.
Failure to sail will make this ceremony a laughing stock and lead to a series of serious consequences in society.
At this moment, Shen Qingyuan suddenly felt that the palm of his right hand became as stiff as a puppet. I couldn’t lift it up myself, and I couldn’t press it down. It seems to have gotten out of its grasp.
The countdown will not be changed by anyone’s will~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is still slowly changing, and the voices of the people are becoming more and more frenzied.
Wang Hao watched helplessly as the countdown dwindled, from ten to nine, to six, five, four, and finally to one.
When it returns to zero, it is time for the fleet to set sail.
Wang Hao closed his eyes in despair. In this instant, the scenes he saw when he just entered the Nimbus spaceship flashed through his mind.
The scattered corpses, the lives lost in pain and despair. A famous crew member who had appeared in the video recording screen seemed to be resurrected at the moment, and began to circle in Wang Hao’s mind constantly, and kept saying something.
At the beginning, Wang Hao couldn’t hear clearly, but after a while, the voice became clear.
“why why?”
Countless reasons gathered together, making Wang Hao’s heart as heavy as being weighed down on a thousand-pound boulder, making it difficult for him to even breathe.
I don’t know if it was an illusion or what, Wang Hao felt that time had become extremely slow. In the time when he closed his eyes, it seemed that thousands of years had passed. But the order to set sail that should have been heard never appeared. Moreover, those cheers full of enthusiasm and excitement gradually disappeared.
When Wang Hao opened his eyes, he saw that the head of state’s smile was still calm, his palm was still on the button, but he didn’t press it.
The venue has returned to silence. Everyone was looking at the head of state in the center of the stage in doubt, thinking about why the head of state didn’t press the button for a long time.
Under the gazes of countless eyes, the head of state suddenly slowly closed his palm.
“Sorry, my colleague told me that something unexpected happened. We are temporarily unable to set sail until a detailed report is available.”
