The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

983. Aftermath of Terrorist Attack (Part 1)

Schiff Palpatine stood in the middle of his office, turned around and looked out the window, the fighter jets passing by, the spaceship of the Public Security Department flashing red and blue police lights, and the terrified crowd.

Rush Clovis stood behind Palpatine uneasily, not knowing what to say. The speaker in front of him was obviously completely different from before. This person was full of indescribable power, which made people feel frightened.

"Ainle Tim was rescued." Schiff Palpatine said slowly, "At the same time, someone sneaked into your residence and encountered the Jedi Knight I arranged. Now you are just a Poor bastard that everyone has given up on, Clovis."

"Coruscant... Coruscant was attacked? This is impossible... this..." Rush Clovis raised his head suddenly, "By the way, Padmé! Padmé is also in the Capitol! Here Under attack, she may be in danger..."

Palpatine looked at him with those poor eyes, "Poor guy, don't you realize that Padmé's heart has been taken away by a Jedi knight?"

"Jedi Knight? How is this possible! Isn't the Jedi Knight unable to have secular fetters?"

"So I said, you have been abandoned by everyone. The Interstellar Banking Association, the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, the Galactic Republic...even, your former lover..." Palpatine said with a sneer, "However, it is only me And think you still have value."

"What do you want?" Clovis felt a little bad.

"The Galactic Republic under the rule of the Jedi Order has come to an end, or should have come to an end. Just like the Interstellar Banking Association under the leadership of the Muuns...isn't it?" Schiff - Palpatine's smile Gradually grim, "Among such changes, this is your only chance! When you reach the peak, when you sweep the Jedi Order into the dustbin of history, let Padmé Amidala be in the wrong choice It's extremely painful, shouldn't it be what you should do now?"

"this……"

"Think about it." Palpatine patted him on the shoulder. "Now, I'm going to issue an amnesty to those desperate bounty hunters, and then put an end to this farce on Coruscant."

"Could it be that you are leading all of this behind the scenes?" Clovis's cold sweat immediately dripped from his forehead.

Palpatine smiled and put his index finger on his mouth. "Promise me that after you leave the office, everything will be between the two of us."

...

The kidnapping case of the Capitol of the Galactic Republic, which shocked everyone, finally ended with Speaker Schiff Palpatine signing an amnesty order and letting Cade Bain and his group leave.

Palpatine claimed that he made this decision to protect the safety of the kidnapped congressmen, and other than that, he did not have any agreement with this group of vicious kidnappers.

However, in this kidnapping case, more than a dozen congressmen still died unexpectedly. This result caused the security issue of the Congress of the Republic to be criticized.

What is even more deadly is that some surviving congressmen later stated in interviews that when the kidnapping happened, there was a Jedi Knight——Anakin Skywalker was also on the scene, but obviously he did not Stop this kidnapping from happening.

Under the exaggeration of some intentional media, the kidnapping of the Parliament was linked to the incompetence of the Jedi Order, and Anakin Skywalker also suffered tremendous pressure.

At the same time, three other major events occurred in Coruscant that day.

The energy center on the 10th floor underground in Coruscant was destroyed; the prison of the Ministry of Justice was attacked, and Congressman Ainle-Tim was missing; to the attack.

This series of events can't help but be linked to a series of recent parliamentary resolutions, and countless speculations and discussions are almost everywhere.

The results are also frustrating...

This series of attacks exposed Coruscant's flawed security. Councilor Ainle-Tim appeared on the planet Marathal 7 days later and officially announced his joining the Confederation of Independent Galaxies.

In order to hunt down the assassin, the Jedi Master Ross Del Masona, who was at the Rush Clovis mansion at the time, was killed by the murderous assassin, which shocked the Jedi Order.

Master Yoda, the leader of the Jedi Order, personally led an investigation team to thoroughly investigate the matter.

In the end, under strong pressure, Schiff Palpatine announced that the instigators of this series of terrorist attacks were the separatists, and the Galactic Republic would fight to the end against such cruel terrorist acts.

Later, under the auspices of Palpatine, the Galactic Council passed a resolution to add a war loan to the Interstellar Banking Association, and the interest on this war loan reached as much as 25%! At the same time, it will also serve as a policy mortgage by relaxing the supervision of the Interstellar Banking Association.

It is worth mentioning that Rush Clovis, a representative of the Interstellar Banking Association, personally took charge of this loan, embarrassing the representative of the Muun people who was traveling with him. And under the auspices of Rush Clovis, the Interplanetary Banking Association severed all ties with the Trade Federation's representative on the Galactic Council, Lot Dud.

In secret, Rush Clovis also started to act. He refused to accept all instructions from the co-chairman Thorn Hill in the name of different positions, and repeatedly stated within the interstellar banking industry that Thorn Hill was devoted to separatism His behavior is a stupid behavior that will bring the entire Interstellar Banking Association to its end.

At the same time, investigations into this series of terrorist attacks were also launched immediately. All relevant departments and personnel who have made mistakes and omissions, and may even collude with the separatists, have all been dealt with.

With this incident, many hostile forces, including the Fourth Civilization, have dealt a severe blow to their informants and intelligence networks in Coruscant.

However, at this moment, a very dramatic scene happened.

At the same time as the terrorist attack, the parliament of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies had just passed a bill, agreeing to contact the Galactic Republic and trying to reach a peaceful ceasefire agreement with the Galactic Republic.

The formation of the special envoy has just started, and the big news of multiple terrorist attacks on Coruscant broke out there.

Afterwards, Speaker Schiff-Palpatine made a public speech, condemning the Confederation of Independent Galaxies for saying one thing and doing another. On the surface, they want peace, but in fact they are launching terrorist attacks and destroying peace.

But at this time, Earl Dooku rarely directly stood up and confronted Palpatine, directly saying that these terrorist attacks were all directed and staged by the Galactic Republic, and that the one who really wanted the war was the Galactic Republic.

and……

They have proof!
