"Maliciously monopolizing the market, bombing business rivals, bribing colonial government officials, murder and arson." She turned a page back and raised her eyebrows. "How dare you evade taxes!"

"This......"

His heart suddenly turned cold. This kind of thing is usually covered up by the local government and the company. After all, this kind of big job can only be settled by everyone working together. Now that it's all on the table, it can only show that The government is determined to get him.

Even a small matter like murder can be brought out, not against him, what is it?

"I know what you're thinking, it's all a fart." She walked back to the door and threw the documents on the table, "Yes, in normal times, except for tax evasion, everything else would be turned a blind eye Close one eye.

"So, think about it again, did you do anything else out of the ordinary?"

"Say it straight, I admit it."

He sighed and looked down.

Obviously, he had already been given up, otherwise, it would not have been possible for the Anti-Rebellion Department to dig out so much black material in such a short period of time.

"Who else is genetically engineered to make Jeffreys slaves?"

"That's it?"

Siler's eyes widened in disbelief.

Just because of this shit?

"That's it?" She folded her arms and sneered.

"Be lenient when you confess, and stricter when you resist." A hoarse male voice also sounded from behind, "As long as you tell the truth, we will not kill you."

Well, anyway, it will be handed over to the same clan in the end. What happened to that omnic has nothing to do with them~

"I said! I said!"

Although he didn't know why such a trivial matter was paid so much attention by the higher-ups, but out of his desire for life, he still told the whole thing like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

None of the other board members involved in this matter, the list of geneticists, and the location of the breeding base.

"Besides, aren't these things that the colonial government wants by name? Although I broke the law when I trained them, shouldn't you be the ones who should be held accountable?"

In the end, he broke the jar and complained.

"Wait, what did you say?"

The interrogator's pen stopped.

Volume 57 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Dilemma

They never imagined that not long after they put out the slogan "never let one go", the Ministry of Elimination and Rebellion discovered something extraordinary.

If it's just the individual actions of the development company, even if it involves a small number of officials, the federation can make up its mind and hand them over as votes—but once the local administrative department is involved, things become complicated and confusing.

The reason is simple, the federal central government has no right to directly manage the administrative departments of the colonies.

It sounds unbelievable, but it is true. Although the federation can be called a unified country in general, in many things, it is actually closer to the confederation system.

That is to say, the colonial administration was not appointed by the superiors, but elected by the locals themselves.

In the same way, instead of saying that the parliament is the central government, it is better to say that it is the administrative department of the planet Talalon, but they are strong enough to master the vast majority of military power, so that they can suppress other colonial planets and prevent them from going out on their own .

After all, cross-planetary management is really too difficult. Even a dictatorial country like the empire has given a high degree of autonomy to the colonial planet-but the empire and Fasati have at least legally granted the central government The right to appoint and remove colonial stars, and the central council of the Federation does not even have this right.

But generally speaking, if a few officials commit crimes and the higher-ups are dissatisfied, the colony will definitely give Talalong a face, and will not say that they are forced to do it.

Anyway, the fleet is really in the hands of the central government. After learning from the empire, it is naturally impossible for Taralon to allow the colonies to master too strong military strength—if they are in a hurry, let them use force Shuffle the colonial star, the gain outweighs the loss.

Therefore, the two maintain such a balance, and take a step back from each other. As long as the colonial star pays taxes according to the amount and does not touch the bad luck of the central government, they will not interfere too much in the internal affairs of the colonial star.

But now, here comes the problem—now that this has been investigated by the colonial star government, what should we do?

Order them to cooperate with the investigation in the name of the central government?

This matter is unrealistic even if you think about it, enslaving citizens of Jeffrey, even Jeffrey created by genetic engineering, is by no means a trivial matter.

Once this kind of thing is exposed, no matter how corrupt the top federal officials are, they will never condone such behaviors that directly violate the law.

Of course, if there is no relationship with the same ethnic group, considering social stability, the Federation usually chooses to send people to conduct a secret investigation first, and then arrest a few middle-level officials who are too exposed to knock on the mountain, notify the colonial government to rectify it by itself, and conduct an optional inspection.

In this way, smart people can realize that their superiors already know their shit, and they will give up on their own initiative.

After all, although enslaving Jeffrey is very serious, it will not threaten the high-level governance. As long as the colonial planet is willing to give up this behavior, they can also let the past go-it should be like this.

But with the relationship of red, everything is different.

"Do you want me to tell the President that the next time I see Hong, tell her: 'I'm very sorry, this was done by the colonial government, but they have already admitted it wrong, I hope you will not be ignorant?'"

He had just been scolded by the president because of repeated failures in intelligence about the same clan. Before he could find someone to vent his anger, he heard another "good news" from his subordinates.

He angrily threw the file bag on the table and reprimanded loudly.

"Or are you going to tell that omnic, 'This is a corporate act of Kaizen and has nothing to do with the government?'"

"Do you think that Hong is as easy to deceive as you?"

Speaking of this, he became even angrier—the intelligence personnel who had spent a huge amount of money to train couldn't even detect this kind of government-level slave procurement that was almost on the surface?

In the end, the anti-revolutionary department, which is a competitor, actually found out. For him, this was like slapping him in the face!

Face!

"roll!"

The subordinate scrambled and fled out of the office.

"Damn it, close the door!"

The subordinate who escaped halfway slipped back quickly, stretched out an arm and gently closed the door.

"Ugh......"

Thinking of the people involved in this incident gave him a headache.

Although it seems that this incident only happened on the No. [-] colony planet, but according to the famous Xiaoqiang theory, when you find a Xiaoqiang at home, it means that there are at least a thousand Xiaoqiang hiding at home. every corner.

In the same way, this kind of large-scale production of Jeffrey slaves, and even the official copper smelting, can never be participated by only one colonial planet-if this matter is not handled properly, it will be the third national-level rebellion.

Although compared with the previous two rebellions for population and survival, it is an insult to compare the rebellion because of the fear of being caught for copper smelting, but it has to be said that this thing is indeed possible.

For a moment, he wanted to complain to those experts who were full of idealism—although it was ordered by the parliament, but anyway, at least use diplomatic language to fool the other party first, and talk about it after the intelligence department finds out something, okay? ?

Now that the parliament is happy, he will suffer a great crime.

"Mr. President, I have something to add about this 'Jeffrey slavery' incident..."

He sighed, and made this phone call that could be called proactive scolding.

......

The current federal situation is a bit awkward.

On the one hand, Hongken believes that the high-level officials have nothing to do with this matter, so the improved diplomatic attitude has benefited the entire alliance, especially the Federation. Originally, Hong had the lowest evaluation of the Federation, but after this misunderstanding was resolved, her opinion of the Federation The evaluation has recovered to the level of the other two countries.

That is to say, in this matter, the federation has gained the most. In the spirit of striking while the iron is hot, the federation should do its best to find out the truth of the matter and hand it over to relevant personnel, so that Hong's favor towards them can be further enhanced.

Leaving aside the benefits they may gain from it, just reducing the probability of the other party launching a war is enough for the Federation to pay attention to this matter.

But now, this matter is not only related to the No. [-] colonial star government, but even if it goes deeper, it may be related to all colonial stars-the federation has no way to hand over such a large network, unless they want to harvest a group of rebellious colonies .

But if they don't hand it over, two problems will be involved - should they take the central government out of this matter and tell Hong that they are helpless?

Or, help colonize the planet.

Withholding the news?

Volume 58 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] All Metal Masters

As the investigation progressed, more and more clues were unearthed.

As a new colonial star, if you don’t count junior staff and salaried employees, but only middle and senior officials, the No. 460 colonial star government has a total of [-] and three middle and senior officials.

Originally, according to the speculation of the central government, no matter how many officials were involved in this matter, there were only a few dozen. They gritted their teeth and dispatched a fleet to forcefully take it down, and the matter was considered resolved.

Although voluntarily handing over one's own lower-level government officials will weaken the prestige of the central government, compared with the dire consequences that may be caused by dissatisfying the red, the weakening of prestige is an insignificant matter.

"I didn't expect...the result would be so unexpected."

He sighed, put down the IPAD in his hand, and said leisurely.

One good news, and one bad news.

The good news is that the in-depth investigation of other planetary colonies has yielded results—yes, although, as expected, other planets did violate the rules to create Jeffreys through genetic engineering, it can still be called a good one. information.

Because they made Jeffrey, no cubs.

In other words, it has nothing to do with the current group of the same family.

For this reason, before the meeting started, they made a special trip to ask Hong, and got the answer they wanted as they wished.

"I really don't like your behavior of enslaving your own people, even if it is unofficial and illegal-but I also understand your concerns."

"I repeat my request: anyone involved in this matter."

She bit down on the word "this matter".

The implication is that she has nothing to do with the cubs, and she doesn't care about the enslavement that happened on other planets.

In the end, she was giving leadership to her cubs, not to the Jeffreys—that was the Federation's own business, and she wasn't free enough to take care of people she didn't know.

After obtaining this guarantee, today's meeting was held.

"Will you hand over all the officials involved in Colony No. [-]?"

A congressman read aloud the title of the document in front of him and couldn't help but sneer.

"Return all the officials involved, why are you so tactful?"

"A total of 460 three people, 370 five people participated directly, 87 people participated indirectly, what's left?"

Yes, the rest, except for one marginalized official who was confirmed ignorant of the matter.

One does not fall.

Of course, if it is another country that follows the diplomatic rules, even if the opponent's fleet is very strong, it is impossible for them to take the option of "handing over the local government" into consideration.

A country, not to mention protecting its own people, can't even protect its own lower-level government. Facing threats from foreign countries, it would actually want to hand it over to ask for forgiveness.

If this news is exposed, they can be [-]% sure that it will only be a matter of time before the entire federation falls apart and repeats the disintegration of the former federation.

Even if you are guilty, it is your own internal judgment, and it is not up to other countries to point fingers—this should be the innermost activity of most normal people.

But they understand that for the same race, everything is different.

She really gets her hands on it.

"It's too direct, it's too ugly."

"Otherwise, are you still thinking of concealing this matter?" A congressman spread his hands, "You don't really believe in our country's secrecy, do you?"

"Come on, the Empire knows our defense secrets faster than the Parliament."

"I know about it, and the other two countries must have known about it long ago."

Obviously, they lack a little trust in the federal secrecy department.

"But we can't just give up Colonial Planet No. [-], can we?"

Although it is to give up the government, anyone with a discerning eye understands that this is actually tantamount to surrendering the No. [-] colonial planet.

Let’s not talk about whether the same group will be willing to spit out the planet after executing the local government and other employees involved in the incident. Even if she returns, the hearts of the people above will be scattered long ago.

In other words, no matter what, it is impossible for this planet to obey the orders of the Federation.

Although Colonial Planet No. [-] is a new planet that has just been conquered for decades, they have not even had time to clean up the original races on it. The degree of development is extremely low, the population is sparse, and it is the most insignificant planet in the entire alliance—— However, that is also an out-and-out federal territory!

Although rationally speaking, it is a very wise choice to give up a worthless planet and avoid direct conflict with the same family.

But logically speaking, has anyone ever seen a country that voluntarily gave up its territory before going to war?

"The lesser of two evils, this is already the least harmful option." The president rubbed the bridge of his nose with a headache, "Anyway, everyone, vote."

"Thirteen votes in favor, zero against, and zero abstentions."

It was the fastest and most uniform voting ever.

Even the congressman who said "you can't just give up like this" just now followed his heart when he voted.
