Interdimensional science and technology starting from cyberpunk

It took less than a week from the time Leal had the idea to take action against the gang to the time Kingpin was arrested.

No one thought that the NYPD would directly take violent measures against a large local company like United Construction Company because of two citizens who were illegally broken into.

No one thought that the mayor had no idea of ​​making a dirty deal with King and calling it an exchange of benefits.

The mayor just wanted Kingpin to be arrested - rumors soon spread that the Kingpin had almost hired someone to kill Anthony.

The whole of New York remained silent about this, not knowing how to react.

This arrest was carried out vigorously and unexpectedly, and the ctOS system also showed its power. Some gangsters who were panicking and planning to run away were also identified and continued to be arrested.

The New York gang is finished, and now their value is only as much evidence of connections to other cities as can be mined from them.

". Kingpin's body seems to have had an adverse reaction to anesthesia and electric shock. Do I need to find a doctor for him?"

"Find a doctor and contact Hammond directly from International Genetic Cooperation."

"OK."

Anthony gave instructions to his secretary, who nodded and went down.

The arrest of the name Kingpin symbolizes the disappearance of the gang emperor who has been entrenched in New York City for more than 20 years.

His people, his property, and his subordinates were all sent to prison. There was no room for bribery or trickery, only public trials one after another.

First, there are the peripheral members of this underworld organization. As the outermost members, they have not been exposed to much business, but they are ruthless and have committed many direct violent crimes.

It only takes a few days of detention and loss of contact for most of them to lose their loyalty to Kingpin and turn them in to their superiors.

As you move up a level, you begin to come into contact with the small dealers in the gang who are responsible for selling stolen goods and buying and selling criminal supplies. These people may not have committed direct violent crimes, but they have sold a large amount of supplies used in crimes.

Further up there are smart people with certain legal identities, who may even have connections with some local officials. Through these relationships, they can get through the most troublesome links of illegal smuggling.

These people will not be too safe in prison, and many people want them to die directly in prison.

However, with the help of ctOS, it is impossible for them to be silenced until they fully confess their direct superior's money, what they were asked to do, and how they corrupted the system.

Many timid officials could no longer bear the pressure and voluntarily surrendered, while others got wind of the situation and began to run away.

But ctOS can always identify these problem officials quickly.

Without the gangsters who do the dirty work, the streets have become quieter, but the political arena is not——

The arrests of a large number of people have caused panic in New York, and there are even rumors that the newly appointed mayor of New York, Anthony, is carrying out a secret purge and intends to launch a "Florism" similar to McCarthyism in New York.

Anthony picked up the phone and dialed Leal's number.

"Wilson Fisk and his gang were all caught."

Leal on the other end of the phone asked, "How are you going to deal with it?"

"Maximum punishment? I guess the matter at hand could end up giving him four or five life sentences."

Four or five life sentences, given Kingpin's current situation, it is impossible to commute his sentence, and he will definitely stay in prison until death.

But Lille had other plans: the entire country was very poor because of the subprime mortgage crisis, so they could only use extreme means to squeeze out some more resources, but in the end it was all the same.

The essence of issuing bonds, increasing taxes, seeking help from federal and state governments, and using various other funds and reserves are all overdrafts of credit. If you want to extract money, you must increase credit. Showing strength is the best way to increase credit.

Another way to enhance credit is to twist the huge social entities into a line. In this regard, the loose city government still has a lot of room for adjustment.

The more people who support you, the stronger your credibility will be, but you have to give people a chance to take sides and reveal the current situation to society.

So Leal said: "We reinstate the death penalty to make justice come faster."

Anthony was stunned.

New York State just abolished the death penalty in 2007, and now Lear is going to bring it back with just one sentence?

Moreover, this law is not something the mayor has the final say on. It has to be enacted by the state assembly and signed by the governor.

Although he is an immigrant, Anthony has been deeply influenced by the abolition of the death penalty in recent decades——

When he was a civilian, he would think that some people deserved to die. But when he reached the position of mayor, he became a little more cautious.

Although he didn't know why he thought so.

Sensing his hesitation, Leal added: "Don't you think the public will want him to be sentenced to death once what Kingpin's gang did is exposed?"

"No"

"That's it, go and work hard. This is a big decision. It can help you judge who is biased towards you."

Anthony hesitated more and more. He thought for a long time and asked cautiously: "When I saw Jin Bin yesterday, I suddenly realized that maybe without me, he would be the current mayor.

You said, what is the difference between me and him? "

Leal responded quickly: “Black and white are colors, but black is black and white is white.

Don't have this idea just because you are in the same ecological niche. He intimidated, deceived, and even killed ordinary people in Hell's Kitchen.

If I remember correctly, O'Malley alone offered money and beat two people to death with his own hands, but you did not.

Under our policies, people can find jobs, earn money to support their families, and live in the sunshine without fear. This alone makes us different. "

As he spoke, Leal thought of something else and added: "Maybe Kingpin was sentenced to death as early as 2007. Maybe he should have died long ago."

New York State declared the death penalty unconstitutional in 2004, and it was completely abolished in 2007.

The Kingpin began its activities at least 20 years ago. At that time, it was entirely possible to commit anything worthy of the death penalty.

Rationally, people do not advocate using the previous laws to try current criminals, but what if this person is a fish that slipped through the net in the past?

Even if he had been sentenced to death but had used some methods to escape death?

To be more exaggerated, maybe he has made political donations to many congressmen who want to abolish the death penalty in recent years?

These can all be checked, and the result of Leal's preliminary screening through the Internet is: Kingpin really gave political donations to some congressmen who voted to abolish the death penalty.

Kingpin wanted to clear his name and become a politician with white gloves. It must be because he had contact with those people and broadened his horizons. I guarantee that he had once reaped the bonus of not being easily executed.

"Think about it, an unscrupulous bully beats anyone who disobeys to death. He may have killed the child's father in front of a child, led others to insult the child's mother, and burned down a family's warm home. Race disobedient people into concrete.

With the efforts of countless people with lofty ideals, he was brought to court, and the judge sentenced him to death——

But he just couldn't die. After a while, he was released from prison and continued to drive his own luxury car and go in and out of big houses. If you were an ordinary person, what would you think? "

"I can't sleep. Although I don't think about these things when I'm busy, I occasionally think about the fact that there are such demons in our city and our society."

"Look, you understand what I mean." Lear smiled.

Anthony was also relieved.

After taking office, he found that being in power was not like a child pointing at this and saying what he wanted. On the contrary, he became restrained and timid.

But as Leal said: Even if Anthony is not the mayor and Kingpin is not a gangster, he will still be the ordinary worker who is cornered by the bully. Kingpin is the bully and he is the unlucky worker.

They have been opposed to each other from the beginning and will continue to be opposed to each other.

Kingpin must die, this is the explanation Anthony needs to give to himself who was once an ordinary citizen; and sending him to hell through the death penalty is his inevitable choice as a mayor and a modern national politician.

Thinking of this, Anthony suddenly became very confident and at ease:

Lear once told him: Only by knowing your own voters and caring about your own voters can you be a successful politician——

And he was once part of those voters, and what he wanted to do was what he once wanted the mayor of New York to do.

"I have a meeting scheduled with the governor right now, and I guess I have a lot of legislators to visit."

"Very good, you are on your way."

Lear nodded slightly.

As Anthony grows into a qualified politician, New York will become more stable as a blood transfusion point.

With the world's most prosperous city at his back, he now has to deal directly with the pressure of his opponents -

The latest generation of mechanized infantry divisions of the Berry Army have arrived in Africa, and Atlas will fight them sooner or later.

Maybe just recently.
