Cosma Empire

This year's Golden March is like every mid-term general election in the past. There are constantly popular black materials being exposed, and those glamorous politicians and stars are also stripped naked, revealing their real ugly faces. appearance.

A certain big man is suspected of violating women and children, a certain big star became famous because he climbed into so-and-so's bed, and how many times a certain business elite stole taxes with the help of certain people in which business activities.

Even people who have become numb to life have never looked forward to various programs at 8 o'clock every night like recently, looking forward to a new day and new news.

In the late afternoon, the New Party Information Office held a briefing to explain some problems encountered by the New Party recently, and to refute some rumors.

Before the briefing session started, the conference room of the New Party was already packed with reporters from all over the country and various channels of the TV station.

In order to avoid the accusations of the "Anti-Industry Manipulation Act" and the "Anti-Monopoly Law", Du Lin did not completely monopolize the business of the TV station. Under his intervention and influence, the cable TV group is more like a service-providing platform.

Anyone can apply for a channel on cable TV. As long as the application is approved, they can operate their own channel independently. Of course, cable TV will charge a certain fee, or share the channel's profits according to the contract.

So far, the total number of cable TV channels in the empire has exceeded two hundred and twenty. It seems like a lot, but in fact most people can watch no more than twenty-five.

Most of these channels are local and regional, and will not cover the entire empire or even overseas, because the cable TV group's charging policy is that the greater the coverage, the more the fee, and the higher the ladder.

A lot of intercontinental and city-based channels are sufficient to meet the needs of more specific and time-sensitive news acquisition for local or surrounding areas in addition to watching the cable TV group's own channels.

At about 1:20, the press spokesman in his forties came to the host stage. He kept a very reserved smile, neither overly enthusiastic nor out of courtesy.

As the spokesperson of the New Party, this position is very special. If the leader is the face and brain of the New Party, then the spokesperson of the New Party is the mouth of the New Party.

This is a position that is not very big, but has a great effect. On any official occasion, what he said represents the position and attitude of the new party to a certain extent.

He first greeted all the media friends who came,

Then he talked about some recent events within the new party, including the discussion of Dooling's withdrawal and whether Holmes broke the law.

When Dooling alleges that someone kidnapped his ex-girlfriend and child to force him to come out, and the provided recording shows "their" plot, people tend to lean toward Dooling as the victim and Holmes as the perpetrator recognized.

Some people even spontaneously asked the Supreme Court of the Empire why Holmes was not arrested and investigated for his crimes.

Today, it will all be resolved here.

"Today we will mainly explain three issues. I hope everyone can report from the perspective of fairness and equality. Thank you, then let's talk about the first thing..."

"Mr. Dooling and Mr. Holmes met once in Mr. Odegar's office last night. We know that during yesterday's operation, the police found two ladies with special identities from a manor in the imperial capital. After the investigation conclusions of the police station and the Bureau of Investigation, we have realized that it is not the Ms. Paula and Ms. Melissa discussed earlier, but two other girls..."

Holmes finally conceded. It was impossible for him to fight Dulin with nothing. Not everyone is a lunatic like Dulin, recklessly betting everything in an unknown game.

Moreover, the importance of Woodland State is not only the base where Holmes started, but also the industrial gathering place of the family behind him.

Once this family loses control of Woodland State, it will be difficult for the ready-to-move consortia and tycoons to give way to them as they did in the past. Those people will find an opportunity to tear them into pieces and swallow them.

In order to avoid huge losses to the interests of the family, the family also hopes that Holmes can consider the struggle between him and Durin from the perspective of the family.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the family believes that the struggle between Holmes and During has fallen into a disadvantage, and the chances of him defeating During to become the vice chairman and become the future leader or even the cabinet prime minister are too small, so it is better to keep the guaranteed interests first, and then Think about what's next.

Holmes himself conceded defeat, and in addition to his family's interests, he bowed his head decisively in order to keep the foundation of Woodland State.

Du Lin naturally responded to this, and then the next thing is to deal with some minor problems caused by the unhappiness between the two of them, and smooth out those waves and ripples, which is why today's briefing is held.

"From the conclusions we have obtained from the police department and the Bureau of Investigation, Mr. Holmes was not involved in the murder of Mr. Duhring...", the spokesperson paused here, he said in *** *The tone of this word is emphasized, "We have every reason to believe that there is a small group of dissidents outside the party who want to damage the image and interests of the new party by creating such misunderstandings."

"Just this morning, Ms. Paula and Ms. Melissa, including Ms. Melissa's children, were successfully rescued. According to the investigation work of the Imperial Bureau for many days, in an underground warehouse in the southeast of the imperial capital, The three women mentioned above were found."

"There is clear evidence that the force that kidnapped the three ladies did not come from Mr. Holmes, but a small local gang. At present, except for the gang leader and a few core members who are at large, everyone else has been arrested. ..."

If the reporters present were very interested in this case and wanted to investigate further, they would soon find out that this small gang was not a fiction, but a real existence and existed for many years.

Among them, the leader of the gang has been and is still working for a special person, and this guy is a white glove under the hands of a very famous figure in the royalist faction. In other words, they will find out all this There is a connection with the imperial party behind it.

Then, in line with the story told by the former New Party spokesperson... a clear main line is displayed in front of people's eyes. All of this is a conspiracy of the imperial party. Conspiracy to make something to suit your own needs.

As for those who should really know the truth, such as gang leaders and core members, they may have escaped from outer space and are on their way to the Kingdom of God, so it is naturally impossible for them to appear again.

The 20-minute briefing mainly focused on these three issues and one major event. The first issue is that everything in the new party is going well and will be even better. Mr. Odegar will inevitably lead Leading the new party to new glory.

The second question is that the conflict between Durin and Holmes is completely a misunderstanding. Holmes did not intend to persecute Durin through such ugly means at all, it was entirely an enemy conspiracy.

The third problem is that in order to show that he did not do the above things, Holmes voluntarily withdrew from this competition. He did not want to be exploited by the enemy because of the healthy competition between himself and During, thus destroying the unity of the new party. , so he would rather quit by himself than let others succeed.

Such noble sentiments and sentiments moved those who heard it to tears!

The new news released is that after the misunderstanding was resolved, During had reached an understanding with Holmes, the two sides stopped fighting, and During will participate in the next intra-party competition.

Many people may have doubts about this, including journalists and some other people who are interested in politics. Didn't Du Lin quit the new party? How could he participate in the competition for the new party?

In fact, it is very simple. Odegar, as one of the leaders with the highest status in the party while Powers was bedridden, did not approve Duhring's application for quitting the new party, but chose to be temporarily detained. In other words In the past, Du Lin only quit the party verbally, but he didn't really quit.

Everyone is very satisfied with the compilation of the story. Rather than saying that this is a press conference, it is better to say that this is a press conference for a new script written by the members of the New Party News Office. They all appear here and can find evidence, which is precisely the most interesting aspect of the political game-until the dust settles, nothing can't be changed.

This "fight" that lasted less than two weeks has also become something that many people talk about, especially some politicians are constantly interpreting the discussions between the political stars of the two parties.

Whether it is Duhring or Holmes, they have actually used their best. The only thing that Holmes lacks compared to Duhring is that he is not shameless enough, and there are some bottom lines. normal people.

He can forge enough evidence when he finds Paula and create the illusion that Paula was silenced by Durin, and then push Melissa and that girl to the forefront of society without any waiting, telling everyone What a morally damaged man Dühring is.

Then fabricate some other scandals and scandals to pour dirty water on, and then throw out some files that Du Lin was suspected of various crimes without evidence, and completely strip Du Lin clean.

If he chooses to operate like this, even if he loses, Du Lin will also suffer a lot of damage. In the end, everyone will lose, and it depends on who is worse.

But he was thinking about compromise, about exchanging, and about solving the differences between them calmly, and he had already lost to Du Lin.

Du Lin has no bottom limit, he only has one thing in life, that is, if you don't kill me, I will kill you.

So it seems that Holmes seems to have lost to Du Lin at every step, but in fact, Du Lin is too wolf, he dared to push Powers, he opened his eyes and told nonsense in front of the whole world, he dared to use If you bet on your future, Holmes will lose in the end!

Facing such an enemy, Holmes will not be wronged if he loses, at least he will end up much better than Harry, the former "Crown Prince".

Back then, Harina was the successor of Magus, and the entire empire recognized it, but now, the one who was pitted by Durin can only assist his own son.

The contents of the explanatory meeting quickly spread throughout the empire with the spread of the media. Many people said that this was the result of the New Party’s active intervention in order to avoid internal divisions. Some people believed that there must be dirty buttocks behind Duhring and Holmes. eye deal.

It is normal to have this kind of thinking, because those reporters who are not satisfied with these ordinary news have not yet dug in depth. After they dig out what Du Lin wants them to dig, the incredible turning point for the general public today will become understandable up.

All of this is a conspiracy of the imperial party. See, unreasonable things can become reasonable!

Now that the outside affairs are almost settled, it's time to solve the family affairs.

Ophelia calmly looked at Melissa who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, her mood was very complicated.

When she was in school, she really regarded this girl as her good friend, but she didn't expect that she regarded Melissa as a friend, but this friend wanted her a man.

But things have already happened and it has reached the current level. There is no point in crying, beating, scolding and playing. Not only can't solve the problem, but it will also lower your own grade.

This is why the elite education of the nobles is good. It will allow the nobles to have many solutions when they encounter certain problems. Similar things have happened countless times in history.

Some of them with excellent handling and serious consequences have been selected and become a small part of elite education. It will tell the nobles, when you encounter these problems, how to choose is the best.

During a process of calm and guilt, Du Lin came over with a bottle of wine. He sat beside Ophelia, and the girl smiled.

Actually... After she calmed down, she didn't feel that she had been betrayed by Du Lin, nor did she feel that she had been hurt in any way. After all, there was a woman and two terrible competitors in Du Lin's hometown, and there were many of them here. A woman who doesn't have much affection for Du Lin and a child who can't become a competitor may not be a bad thing.

"I have an idea..." Ophelia said softly, and Du Lin tilted his head to look at her, beckoning her to continue.

Now I am not afraid that someone will speak, but I am afraid that these people will not speak, Ophelia glanced at the little girl and continued, "Please forgive me for any offense I may have caused you, Melissa, you want to live with Du Lin together?"

Melissa didn't answer. People have to go through some things before they can grow. The more it hurts, the faster they grow. For Melissa, who is now a mother early, Du Lin is more like an important passer-by in her life.

Some passions, some impulsiveness, have passed, and they have calmed down.

She didn't speak, and Ophelia breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She took the initiative to cross Du Lin and walked to Melissa's side, took her hand and put it in her palm, "You are still young, and you have more wonderful life And the future is waiting for you, you shouldn't be living in a closed environment around a child, think about the parties in the past, think about us hanging out, how happy we were then?"

This sentence touched Melissa a bit. She has indeed lived like this for the past two years, going to school regularly, but most of the time she is watching the children in the villa, watching TV to pass the boring time.

Because the child's father is Du Lin, neither she nor the child can expose it. At the same time, she doesn't know Du Lin's character. If she makes some male friends, will it cause Du Lin's displeasure.

So her life is very depressed, very very depressed.

"I have an idea..." Ophelia repeated what she said just now, she turned to look at Du Lin, "let her go, I heard that you have something to do with Sallyville, and the life there It’s also very good, the environment is also good, and it’s very suitable for people to live in.”

"Let Melissa go there to start a new life, study or work, bury all the past in the empire, and usher in a new life in Sallyville, what do you think?"

Du Lin shrugged, "I don't express my attitude on this matter..."

Melissa was very moved, she knew she couldn't beat Ophelia, otherwise it would not have been as simple as one night, it was indeed a good idea to leave and start a new life in a new environment, just as she was hesitating, Ophelia She said another word, which made her feel a little overwhelmed.

"Go alone and leave the child behind."

Melissa is destined not to be Ophelia's opponent, she is very clear about this, but she thinks that the woman in Du Lin's hometown is her greatest enemy in this life.

Perhaps from Du Lin's attitude, he couldn't see his fascination with that woman, but during the time he lived at home, Du Lin was familiar with her, and Ophelia felt that he treated her like other family members. horrible.

It was an acceptance, he didn't say it, but she just knew it.

To fight against that woman, against those two competitors, one must strengthen the bargaining chips in her hands, which was also her decision and determination during pregnancy.

There is never a more appropriate chip for the role of Melissa and Doolin's daughter, and Doolin's guilt for her will eventually become a boost for his own child!

"A two-year-old child doesn't remember anything yet, I will treat her as my own daughter..." She stroked the girl's hair, then looked at Melissa, "As long as you agree, we are sisters, you You can come and see her anytime, I won't stop it."

"And the new life you want, a colorful new life, is right in front of you. Neither Du Lin nor I will interfere with any of your choices, and you don't need to worry about the source of your life..."

Melissa's mind was in a mess, and she asked a little less confidently, "What if... I refuse?"

Ophelia was still smiling, but in Melissa's eyes, there was something terrifying and strange in this smile that she had never seen before.

The girl stroked Melissa's hair gently, as if she was playing with a delicate doll, "Even though Dulin has recognized your existence like society, considering the special connection between you and Dulin, Maybe we'll weave a cage and keep you inside for a long... long..."
