Cosma Empire

Everyone will say that they hate the smell of disinfectant in the hospital. I don't know who said it first, but it should be a literati.

The literati use the smell of disinfectant as a metaphor for the despair and stench beneath this smell. The smell of disinfectant is unpleasant, not the disinfectant itself, but the thing it metaphors!

But many times some metaphors are often not correctly interpreted by people, but most people in this society need to flaunt their self-cultivation, so there are always some metaphors that are generally spread after the meaning is distorted, even the original author Probably didn't expect this to happen.

So is the disinfectant really that smelly, so annoying?

No!

In fact, any patient who really needs a doctor or needs to be hospitalized is not disgusted with the smell of disinfectant, and even feels that the smell of disinfectant is the most reassuring smell in the world to a certain extent.

Yes, there is nothing more reassuring to patients than white sheets, rushing doctors and the smell of disinfectant. Only when these things are in place, can patients rest assured and have a good sleep.

They don't need to worry about dying in the hospital in the middle of the night due to a sudden outbreak of symptoms. They believe that the doctors can definitely rescue them from the death line in time.

What could be more reassuring than sleeping within a diameter of 50 meters from the doctor?

What could be more relaxing than those disinfectant water, than those stiff and unpolite smiles of the nurses?

No, people who say that the disinfectant smells bad all day are often not yet sick. When they need it, they will understand how ridiculous they are who said these words today.

Powers is like this, the air is full of reassuring smell, and he didn't say anything about his "misstep" when he woke up.

He didn't forget that at the moment when he fell downstairs, during the rolling process, he saw Du Lin who stopped behind him, and his indifferent eyes.

He still can't believe that all of this actually happened. Dulin actually pushed him down from the upstairs. Any details about the accident.

Sometimes it is better not to say something than to say something, such as now.

If Powers goes public with what happened to him,

Regardless of whether society and public opinion have reasons to believe what he said is true, the absolute opposition between his position and Du Lin's position is enough to make him uncomfortable for a long time.

Everyone knew that Du Lin was a lunatic. What was even more frightening was that this lunatic had learned how to make himself look like an ordinary person. This was the most frightening thing.

Does he dare to push himself down, does it mean that he has prepared a follow-up solution, does it include a way to deal with it without any major accidents?

If there is, and he resolves it, then Powers himself will lose all his bargaining chips, and it will be difficult for him to win against Du Lin, who has no bottom limit under the current situation.

And he believed that the possibility of this happening was very high, and Durin would definitely have a prepared plan.

But if he doesn't say it, but holds the real secret in his own hands and keeps it secret, he will take the initiative instead and have a chance to negotiate with Du Lin.

As long as the conflict between Du Lin and himself can be resolved, this secret will become an important bargaining chip between him and Du Lin. He believes that if Du Lin has a way to resolve the secret and make it public, he will have to pay a lot. The price is also great.

So Powers never said anything, he was waiting, waiting for a suitable opportunity, and then had a chat with Du Lin.

At 9:30 in the evening, the last round of ward rounds was over, and the doctor and the nurse had already left. Except for a grandnephew of Powers, no one was guarding the room.

After all, he just entered the hospital by "accident", unlike "Target Governor" Du Lin who was assassinated and sent to the hospital all day long, so he didn't need the police and Bureau of Investigation agents to guard him here.

There is only his hospital bed in the room. This is a high-end ward, specially used to receive the rich and powerful. The most advanced medical science and various instruments are developed by such people. There is absolutely no instrument on the surrounding shelves. Will appear in the general ward.

It's not that the hospital is cruel and ruthless, it's just that this society is like this, different classes, different identities, enjoy different treatment.

Some news about Durin and Golden March is being broadcast on TV, and the three-month farce every four years has made all viewers addicted.

This Golden March is different from the previous ones, because this time people receive information through television, and the emergence of television has greatly changed the way people obtain social information.

A more intuitive and effective medium has changed the whole world, and you can see those politicians who are very gentlemanly and elegant on weekdays playing dog brains on the show, which is almost comparable to a prime-time TV series.

Powers looked at the TV screen, but he was thinking about other things in his mind. He already knew that Odegar was nominated to take over as the leader of the new party, and now there was only one vote left for the remaining procedures.

If Odegar takes over this position, a vice chairman will inevitably be vacated. Du Lin's target is this vice chairman. He has already taken this position a year ago, or even earlier.

Sometimes I think about Powers and feel that I am wronged. When Magus was in power, he was the whip in Magus's hand, used to beat those idiots who went the wrong way and crossed the line, and waited for Magus to leave After taking that position, he has become the prey of Magus's successor.

He dedicated his whole life to the new party, but in the end it ended up like this, which has already chilled him.

He didn't want to fight for any power anymore, and he knew very well that he didn't have that qualification - he was not a nobleman!

In the final analysis, this is the key. Whether it is Dulin or Holmes, no matter what angle or position they put themselves on, especially Dulin, they can't change the most important label on them-nobility.

Du Lin always advertised himself as a young minority politician who came out from the bottom of society. Yes, he was right, but he deliberately neglected to introduce his new identity, the son-in-law of a great noble family, Tima, the first nobleman in the empire. The successor of the Monte family.

He always did not introduce these special identities. He is a liar and successfully deceived everyone. If Powers had become Magus's brother-in-law, he must have nothing to do with Dulin now.

So what he lacks is not ability, not means, but identity and background. This was known less than three months after he took office. After all, increasing the power of the committee is equivalent to reducing his power, and the purpose of all this is Mag S was guarding him.

Since then, his heart has been cold, but not as bright and bright as it is now!

When he was thinking about how to get more benefits for himself and avoid this vortex, the door of the ward opened.

After the last ward round, if there were no special circumstances, no one would enter the room, and it was already very late at this time. As an injured old man, he should be considered and respected by people.

Somewhat displeased, he tried his best to control the conscious half of his body and raised his head to look at the door. Suddenly, a sour feeling spread all over his body, and even the non-conscious body over there had some slight changes at this time.

Durin!

Why the hell is he here?

Before he had time to speak, Du Lin preemptively said, "I heard that you are recovering well, and you happened to pass by here today when you have time, so I'll come and have a look." The fruit basket was placed again, "The fruit is very fresh, I bought some by the way..." He glanced at his grandnephew who didn't know what to do, took out 20 yuan from his pocket, and stuck it between his index finger and middle finger and middle finger Between it and the ring finger, it looks like a C shape, "Go buy a pack of cigarettes."

The grandnephew glanced at Powers, but Powers said nothing. He took the money from Du Lin and ran out.

Obviously, this is to tell him to go out.

After waiting for the child to leave, Du Lin found a chair and sat aside. He crossed his legs, took off his hat and put it gently on his knees, "The doctor said that you recovered quickly, which is a good thing. I really freaked out when I saw you fall, but luckily you're okay, Powers."

Powers swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he suddenly felt that Du Lin might be the most suitable, with the best potential to become a real politician, or even a statesman.

The degree of his shamelessness gave him an advantage that others couldn't match. He was obviously pushed down by him, but now he can turn himself into a bystander and sigh for his recovery here.

Powers laughed suddenly, the laughter was full of sarcasm and ridicule, and there was a hint of unwillingness of a loser, "Okay, Dulin, I don't know what you are doing here, if you come to see my current misery If so, then you win, and if you have other matters, we should talk about business, such as resolving our differences."

He was implying that Du Lin pushed him down. He didn't tell anyone about the deal behind this incident, implying that if Du Lin wanted to keep his mouth shut, he would offer some benefits.

Of course Du Lin understood, but he didn't follow what Powers said.

He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and Powers frowned. The clean and tidy ward with disinfectant wafting was really very comfortable, and he didn't like the smell of smoke ruining this comfort.

But he has no way to stop it, and he also believes that even if he speaks, Du Lin will not sell this face to him, because the guy sitting next to him is named Du Lin.

Du Lin lit his cigarette, took a deep breath, and then talked about some recent "interesting stories" with a smile.

"Recently you were in the hospital, and everyone missed you very much. There are some gossips about you in the old building..." He flicked the cigarette ash and laughed twice, "Do you think it's interesting? Someone Saying that you fell from upstairs was not because you were not careful, but man-made, and the reason is pretty good..."

"It is said that the new party, as the largest party in the empire, itself represents the empire to a certain extent. The leader of the new party is more like the 'king' of the empire than Mr. Kubal. Some foreign hostile forces bought some people and created this accident. While suppressing the new party and the face of the empire, it is also to promote an important person who is deeply hidden in the new party..."

Powers' heart beat violently twice suddenly, his mouth was bitter, and the bitterness went all the way to his heart, do you want to play it so big?

Involving people from home and abroad, what exactly do you want to do, and how much do you want to play?

If he could choose, he would never want to see Durin again, but this was obviously impossible.

Du Lin nodded lightly, "Look, I was kicked out."

He threw the cigarette butt on the ground, raised his toes and crushed it, "Exercising more is good for physical recovery, I am just passing by, I wish you a speedy recovery, Mr. Powers!", he nodded and turned to leave, just happened to be pushed away by his grandnephew After leaving the room, he watched Du Lin leave in a daze.

Powers sighed, Du Lin had actually made his words very clear, sometimes he really doubted, would there really be such a person as Du Lin in this world?

He is shockingly young, but scarier than any old man, as if he was born with a lot of knowledge, is there really such a person in the world, or is it that God will favor some people?

He looked up at his grandnephew, who was about the same size as Du Lin, and shook his head, "I don't feel well, call the doctor for me, and bring me another phone."

Soon, two pieces of news began to circulate. The first piece of news was that Powers' recovery was very slow. Although he had already regained consciousness, the doctor said that he would need at least two to four years to fully recover.

The second thing is that Powers "heard" that someone was spreading gossip outside, saying that he was killed when he fell down. that power.

The two things don't seem to have much connection, and not many people believe it, but some people feel that it is even more troublesome.

That's right, Holmes.

Du Lin has already quit the new party, and the others have no chance of competing. In addition, there are gossips that the National Security Council has gone to Woodland State to investigate politicians' participation in the Earth God religion and the sale of imperial confidential information. Almost all the spearheads overnight All pointed to Holmes.

In fact, most people have the basic ability to distinguish right from wrong, but this matter itself is just like what Holmes considered before and what he did. It is enough to form a sensational wave of public opinion.

A fake is a fake, and it cannot become true until it dies, but society and public opinion may be deceived.

After all, these lies are often released by official channels with credibility...
