Blade of Time

Chapter 119 Parade
Walking out of Napton's office, Jiang Changye saw Tina waiting for him in the garden.

Smiling, Jiang Changye walked over and gave her a thumbs up: "Good job. How is that girl?"

Tina smiled: "I was dismissed, but that's not important. The point is that I managed to keep my position, I don't owe you anything, and I don't need to promise you anything."

Jiang Changye nodded: "That's right. Maybe I will ask you in the future, but this will be a new deal, and you have the right to refuse."

"of course."

The two just walked side by side.

Tina looked at him suspiciously: "Can you tell me, what role did you play in this matter?"

Jiang Changye replied, "It's not important. We are people from two worlds, not the same kind. It's no good for you to know what I've experienced."

He stopped and looked at Tina: "For you, staying away is the most suitable."

Tina shook her head: "Maybe, but sometimes we don't have a choice. Schmidt came to me today, and he asked me about last night."

"what do you say?"

"Prevarication has nothing to do with me. It's purely coincidental. But Schmidt is not easy to fool, he can guess something."

Tina put her hand on Jiang Changye's shoulder: "I lied to Annie yesterday and told her that my position was temporary. But after thinking about it, I think that was not a lie. After this incident, Shi Mitt will let me down sooner or later, but someone else will be at the top. While I am still in that position, I want to make a new deal with you."

Jiang Changye nodded: "Keep you in that position?"

"No!" Tina shook her head: "I don't want to work for that bastard Schmidt anymore, but I haven't figured out what to do, maybe you can give me advice...or make arrangements."

Jiang Changye understood the meaning.

After thinking about it, he said, "I will seriously consider this issue."

Talking all the way, the two walked out of Changqing Street and just strolled along the street.

Before I knew it, I came to the road along the river.

The river meanders all the way, and the tree-lined road is refreshing and clean.

Midsummer is here, and most pedestrians wear cool clothes, which is also a beautiful scenery.

As he was walking at this moment, he saw a large group of people approaching from a distance.

They held up banners and shouted loudly.

"The Public Security Bureau is incompetent!"

"Investigate the real culprit!"

"Return justice to the people!"

"Lawrence step down!"

A large number of people just swarmed over, bursting out their angry cries.

"Parade!" Jiang Changye smiled.

The bombing in the old district ignited the anger of the people, and many people pointed their finger at the mayor directly, and a massive parade officially started—not far from the city hall.

At this moment, seeing a large number of people blocking the city hall, Jiang Changye looked at Tina: "You don't want to do a live interview."

"I'm not an on-site reporter now. Of course, due to the professional ethics of a reporter, I should seize every opportunity. But I'm also learning something... Sometimes the job is done beautifully, it's better to hold a good thigh." Tina Smile at Jiang Changye.

Jiang Changye was also happy: "I'm just a student who just graduated, and I'm not really a thigh."

Tina hummed slightly: "I don't know how much you played a role in this matter, but don't take me for a fool."

As she spoke, she pointed to the parade crowd in the front row: "What do you think of this?"

"There won't be any results." Jiang Changye replied: "It's just a needless vent."

"You don't believe in the power of the people?" Tina was surprised.

Jiang Changye shook his head lightly: "Yes, I don't believe it."

"But it's a democratic world."

"Come on." Jiang Changye sneered: "In a world where personal power can control everything, where is there any real democracy? You have to understand that the reason why the people can have a certain right to speak now is entirely because of the person 100 years ago. What Luo Yuanhang bestowed. Bestow! Do you know what bestow is? That is to say, this is not something you have won by yourself. It is not something you have won with blood, sweat, and tears. It is destined to have too many restrictions. They have the right to shout, but It’s just a cry. When the higher-ups need to use this voice, their calls are valuable. If the higher-ups don’t need them, they are worthless.”

Tina looked at Jiang Changye in surprise: "You say public opinion is worthless?"

"To be exact, it's only worth being used." Jiang Changye replied coldly.

The biggest difference between here and the earth is that there is extraordinary power.

Grassroots power forced by a more extraordinary force is destined to have many distortions, forming a deformed product that appears to be useful to public opinion, but is actually useless.

Lawrence can be settled in a parade?

No, let alone in the Pure Land, even on the earth, this kind of thing is very difficult.

Tina was still a little unwilling to give up: "But at least Lawrence can make some concessions."

"Oh, it depends on what kind of retreat and performance." Jiang Changye murmured looking ahead.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a bang in the distance, and a flame suddenly rose up.

What's happening here?
Tina stared in astonishment, and saw a riot erupted from the parade crowd, flames were rising everywhere, someone was throwing Molotov cocktails at the city hall, and the entire parade was in chaos.

The next moment the siren blared, but a large number of armed men appeared and arrested the marchers.

The gunshots rang out, and the whole long blare followed. The people in the parade panicked and fled in all directions, but what they faced were the fierce armed men who were chasing and arresting them.

Tina was completely taken aback.

She wanted to get closer, but Jiang Changye pulled her back.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see," he said.

Tina shook her head again and again: "Why did this happen? What happened?"

Jiang Changye said coldly: "Go back to the station immediately and prepare to broadcast the news...Red Fox Station will tell you what happened, and you will be responsible for telling the public."

Tina wakes up: "But that's not true, is it?"

Jiang Changye sneered: "Who cares?"

........................

On the evening news, Tina sat in the chair.

Holding the speech, she said in a heavy tone: "Just today, a group of thugs stormed the city hall. They attacked the city hall in the name of a parade. This matter does not rule out traces of foreign races participating in the manipulation. Attention citizens, maintain restraint and reason, and don't be easily taken advantage of by outsiders."

"Also: Mayor Lawrence has officially announced that he will fully launch the re-investigation of the bombing case in the old district. The former Director of Public Security, Gaskin, made a huge mistake in this matter, and resigned to take the blame, and was replaced by Deputy Director Dale."

"Director Dale stated that he will never disappoint the public's expectations, will find out the real culprit, and return justice to all the people."

"Mr. Napton, the mayoral candidate, delivered a speech, announcing that if he is elected mayor, he will strengthen the city's public security system, devote more power to protect the safety of the people, and announce that he will close the chemical plant in the suburbs."

"Candidate Mr. Bodie has just stated his intention to withdraw from the race."

"The following is a detailed report."
