Chapter 867: The Time to Test Human Nature
Chapter 867 A moment that tests humanity
"Daughter-in-law, what does she mean?" Seeing Zhou Yuan leave, Jiao Qiao came back to his senses, but he didn't dare to believe it. Fortunately, there was Lin Na who could clear up the confusion.
"Your evil and smoking brother Hong is probably not dead. He has been hiding in Xinjiang Province all these years and has caused a lot of trouble to the Redeemer. Now that the Redeemer has merged, he has no place to hide. I don't know why he is hiding again.
He ran back and hid in the safety zone in the south of the city and became a coachman.
Do you think he has a character flaw or a mental problem? He has become a refugee and yet he doesn’t just stay there and has to cause trouble for others. He was probably responsible for the cases at the German Embassy and the Ojai Farm.
Unfortunately, Zhang Fengwu was also killed by him!"
Compared with Zhou Yuan, Lin Na's resentment towards Hong Tao was much deeper. If she could have been forgiven for pretending to die and escaping quietly, then her behavior after she came back was hard to explain. It seemed a bit like deliberately causing trouble.
.As the Union Minister of Interior, she instinctively dislikes anyone and anything that affects overall stability.
"Wait a minute... Let's talk about it one by one. Why is he not dead?" Jiao Qiao's brain immediately shut down. How come he was talking about using living people to create living corpses, and suddenly another question popped up?
A living dead!
That person has been dead for ten years. Even if he is really a foreign spy, he can't come back from the dead! I went to the scene of the plane crash and shed a few tears of true love. Can you say that this can also be deceitful?
"You've let him get used to cheating! In fact, I didn't expect to do this, but Zhou Yuan understood that guy's nature better and always believed that he was not dead. After so many years, she has always insisted on finding him.
God was so fair, he actually let her find it in Xinjiang Province. Originally, she didn't want to tell outsiders about this matter, but she didn't expect that something went wrong. The old guy didn't know which muscle was wrong, so he secretly
I ran back and just happened to catch up with Zhou Yuan when she went to Xinjiang Province for negotiations, but due to some strange combination of circumstances, she never got in touch with her.
In less than a year, he almost brought down the safety zone management office and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If Wang Jian and Zhang Ke hadn't accidentally discovered the traces, he might have created a lot of trouble in the future!"
Seeing Jiao Qiao, she still didn't believe that she had been deceived, so Lin Na had to describe Hong Tao's misdeeds during this period, trying to arouse her husband's hatred and stop being so foolish as to be his little brother in the future.
"Did Zhou Yuan really see him?" Jiao Qiao still couldn't believe it, but he couldn't say that his wife was lying to him.
"There is no need for her to lie to me on this issue. Speaking of which, Hong Tao's running away had something to do with the two of us. After all, it is also our fault. Do you still remember Niu Dagui's death? In fact, he did not die in battle, but
She was secretly killed by Zhou Yuan in order to silence her..."
At this point, Lin Na had to tell her husband all the causes and consequences, from Hong Tao's immunity to the zombie virus to why he hurriedly faked his death and escaped, to who helped.
"...I just said that he is not a mortal. You see, I am right. You didn't believe it before! This guy might not be from Earth. He might be from an alien planet!"
After listening to his wife's story, Jiao Qiao was stunned for a long time with his mouth open, and suddenly slapped his thigh, as if this incident had been expected, but he changed the title of foreign agent to alien.
.
"Okay, okay, you are smart, you have a discerning eye... Put these aside for a moment, I want to ask you a question, and you must speak from your heart. This is related to the future of our family, do you understand?"
Lin Na has been hearing the speculation about Hong Tao being a dog spy since the day she met Jiao Qiao. After Hong Tao's death, sometimes the conversation was still the same, almost disgusting. Now that it's an alien, it's not much new.
.
The reason why she wanted to tell her husband the news that Hong Tao was still alive was not to find out the origin of this man, but to hear a true message. With this sentence, she could confirm her attitude.
"...Is there anyone in the alliance who doesn't want him to show up alive?" Jiao Qiao is not stupid, but his reaction is a little slower than that of people like Zhou Yuan and Lin Na. As long as there is enough time, most problems can still be figured out.
"That's not true. Currently, the only people who know that he is still alive are you and me, Zhou Yuan and Zhang Ke. Oh yes, He Wanjun must also know, but she doesn't seem to have told Chu Qiu all these years.
What I want to ask you is, if he comes back alive, which side should we stand on? Should we support him to continue to be in charge of the supreme power of the alliance, or should we oppose it! Think about it carefully, and then give a comprehensive answer. There is still time."
"...Crack..." Jiao Qiao immediately became bored after hearing this. He walked around for a few steps with his hands behind his back and his head lowered. He took out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and stared blankly at the gloomy sky for a long time without answering.
.
Logically speaking, he is very willing to let Hong Tao come back to take charge of the overall situation. That way, many people will become more relaxed and no longer have to use their brains to think about each other 24 hours a day. They can just do whatever they say and worry less.
But from an intellectual point of view, this person's return would be of no benefit to himself and his family. Indeed, Hong Tao has always been very good to acquaintances and friends. From the rescue team to the Renaissance Alliance, he never committed personal destruction against political opponents during his administration.
dirty things.
Even if there are conspiracies and tricks to annex the Ping An Army and the Flying Tigers, as long as the senior leaders of both sides have not done anything too inhumane, they will not find reasons to persecute them. In addition to depriving them of military and management rights, they can still participate in political affairs.
, and the treatment is very high.
However, this man who seems to have an extremely broad mind always puts a lot of pressure on the people around him. He is not greedy for pleasure or obsessed with power, and he always carries this habit throughout his daily life, which makes people very sad.
Feeling uncomfortable.
Power is a thing that no one dislikes once they have tasted it. But according to his set of rules, whoever has power will become a street rat. They will be watched by a large group of people all the time. Once abused, they will be punished.
If you leave it out in broad daylight, you will be scorned and criticized by most people.
Yes, when we were ordinary people, we all wanted social rules to be as fair as possible. But when our identities changed, we immediately stopped thinking that way and always wanted to get more for ourselves than others.
But as long as he is around, this idea will become a luxury. Whatever he can endure, others must also endure it, otherwise they will be ruthlessly criticized and suppressed. How can we let such a person return at this moment?
When the power center controls the power, what do the people below think? How do they feel?
If Hong Tao had not left at the beginning and had continued to implement this rule and supplemented it with appropriate means, everyone might have gradually gotten used to it. But people have been gone for ten years, all the rules have changed, and so have people's hearts. Let's do this again
, let alone other people, even myself and Lin Na would find it difficult to accept it.
As the saying goes, blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing one's parents. In fact, there are even more ruthless things. Seizing someone's power is like digging into someone's ancestral grave. Regardless of whether they can win or not, most people will not just sit idly by and have to fight no matter how much. In power.
In front of me, I basically didn't show any fear, and I was as selfless as if I was on stimulants.
At that time, there will inevitably be divisions within the alliance. At best, several parties with different ideas can sit together and speak freely, put forward their respective needs, and then make appropriate concessions, make peace, and come up with something that everyone can agree on.
An acceptable solution is what Hong Tao is best at.
But you can't always think for the best in everything, what if you can't reach an agreement? Now, whether in the government or the military, many people don't know Hong Tao well, and they haven't received any favors from him. Why should they give in?
"Daughter-in-law, he saved both of our lives. We owe our existence to him today. You can't forget your roots too much, what do you think?" After smoking a full cigarette, Jiao Qiao turned around and hugged Lin Na's petite body.
In his arms, he whispered the final decision.
"...Well, you have listened to me all these years. It's so wronged. I know you don't have any ideas, you just let me. Today I will follow the rules of a woman and let the men in the family take the big ideas!"
Lin Na burst into tears when she heard her husband's words. She had been mentally prepared before, thinking that her husband might miss his old relationship and not bear to be cruel, but she still felt aggrieved when faced with this choice.
If she chooses this path, she will obviously lose more, so why should she give away the benefits that she has worked hard to gain over the years in vain? But she also knows that her husband is not as soft as the five good men in the eyes of outsiders.
