Chapter 55: In Congress

the next day.

Washington Airport!

When the dark-faced Mick and the silent Qin walked out of the airport, they were instantly surrounded by countless media.

The media around them were like a tide, attacking Mick and Jean.

"Director Edinson, what are your plans in Congress today?"

"Director Edinson, as far as we know, you are not a mutant. Why do you serve as the director of the Bureau of Investigation?"

"Director Edinson,..."

As they walked towards the car next to Hou, Mick and Qin were silent.

A confused expression.

After opening the car door, let Qin get in the car first.

Mick, who was sitting down in the car, paused, took off his sunglasses, expressionless, and said in a deep voice to the surrounding media who were looking forward to his speech: "This is not a problem between mutants and ordinary people.

, let alone the issue of whether mutants and ordinary people can coexist peacefully. Today’s theme is the issue of whether the 15,860 mutants who died tragically at the hands of the military and Stryker are Americans.

Are they not protected by the Constitution and laws of the United States? In this matter, the military must hand over the murderer. Please remember what I said, it is all."

After saying that, just get in the car and close the door.

The reporters got what they wanted, and while they were still stunned, the car quickly left the airport.

Under the guidance of the Washington Guards, we drove quickly and smoothly towards the Capitol Hill.

inside the car.

Mick glanced at Qin who was sitting next to him, smiled slightly and said, "I remember this is your second time going to Capitol Hill. Do you feel any change?"

The first time Jean went to Capitol Hill, she tried to prevent the passage of the Mutant Registration Act, but unfortunately she failed.

but.

The current [Mutant Registration Plan] has long existed in name only during this massive mass demonstration.

The governments of various states immediately issued announcements when the sun just rose today, refusing to recognize the legality of this plan, and declared that this bill was invalid in each state where they were located.

It's like a farce.

When Qin heard Mick's words, she was slightly stunned and said: "I don't know, it feels like a dream."

Indeed.

In less than half a year, the situation of mutants has changed like a storm, leaving countless people or mutants unpredictable.

From the initial discrimination and scolding, to the current sympathy.

It's like riding a roller coaster.

Qin looked at Mick who showed a slight smile and asked: "Aren't you worried about the military's retaliation?"

Mick shook his head, fiddled with the foreign wine glass in his hand and said lightly: "Qin, you, like Professor X and Magneto, have never seen the world seriously."

Qin frowned.

Mick glanced at her and explained with a smile: "Have you ever thought about why Professor X and Magneto are getting worse after so many years of work?"

Without waiting for Qin to answer, he said to himself: "Qin, you are different from the two of them. You are still young and have more potential."

As he spoke, he took the foreign wine bottle and the foreign wine glass in his hand and asked, "Which one of these two things is the most important?"

Qin was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the foreign wine bottle and said, "This?"

"Ha ha!"

Mick immediately shook his head with a smile, looked at Qin's beautiful eyes and said: "Look, you have been in x academy for too long, and you haven't seen the essence at all."

When Mick uncorked the foreign wine and poured wine into his own glass, he looked at the liquid flowing down and said softly: "The wine itself is the most important thing."

Qin seems to understand but not quite.

Mick poured a glass and handed it to Jean, who did not refuse.

Mick smiled at her, raised his cup and said: "Professor X and Magneto are too focused on the government itself and ignore the most essential issue."

A light touch.

Mick said a toast, and then said: "That's the people themselves."

Mick's strategy is actually very simple.

When the people all agree with mutants in their hearts, will those politicians who so-called gain power by criticizing mutants continue to enforce it?

Do those so-called government agencies still dare to treat mutants as nothing more than grassroots and can suppress them as they please?

so.

Mick specially formulated such a plan.

Come from the people and go to Capitol Hill.

Under Mick's series of fierce operations, the first step was to establish the Bureau of Variation and Investigation to reassure ordinary people that there were no institutions to deal with mutants who committed crimes.

In the second step, a mutant who narrowly escaped appeared at the press conference, which successfully attracted the media and countless people who were paying attention to the press conference.

Then came the third step, which Mick considered to be the most classic.

Arrange the scene.

When countless media reporters and live cameras saw that scene, would they still be so calm? Will they still think that the lethality of mutants is comparable to that of state machinery?

Plant a subconscious mind in their minds.

When they see the miserable situation of the fighting mutants and the casualties, they will think about it later and their subconscious mind will come out.

Mutant?

They are just a group of genetically mutated colleagues who are slightly different from ordinary people.

the fourth step.

Special guest actors.

Whether it was the first little girl who came out without eyes or the little boy who died in Qin's arms, they were all created by Mick's instructions to the stars.

After programming a virtual memory into these two humanoid robots, whether it is movements or expressions, they will act lifelike.

Then.

It's time to reap the fruits of victory.

The thoroughly enraged crowd will take the final step for Mick.

today.

Mick, who holds public opinion, cannot be defeated by any person or organization.

Standing opposite Mick is standing opposite the people.

And usually.

There is no good fruit for such people.

after an hour.

Capitol Hill is in sight.

When the 6-meter-high bronze statue of the Statue of Liberty stood on the dome, Mick adjusted his black suit.

"nervous?"

As the car slowly stopped at the Capitol, he looked out the window at the countless media who had come to squat early in the morning. He smiled softly and asked Qin who seemed to be exhaling and inhaling next to him.

Qin nodded.

The feeling this time is completely different from the last time I came here.

The last time I was forced to come here by that bill, the final result was not good-looking.

Returned defeated.

This time.

But he came here on his own initiative, and he came here as a winner.

He looked sideways at Mick sitting next to him.

Qin suddenly discovered that this man always had a smile on his face, and it seemed that nothing could stop him.

Mick said he could help mutants solve the current crisis.

He said he did it.

Mick also said that he could help mutants change their image in the minds of the people.

He did it again.

This time, Mick told her that the United States must officially recognize the location of the mutants and make the military pay the price.

I don't know if he can do it.

Mick looked at his clothes, put on his sunglasses, and smiled at Qin:

"It's time to play."

Finished.
Chapter completed!
