"A group called Scarlet Peace calls on everyone to take up arms and arm themselves"
In the state election office, Jefferson watched the gradually rising support rate on the projection, with a relieved smile on his face.
Boom boom boom!
"Come in!"
The assistant walked in with the investors.
"I have something to do with you!"
The investor said with a dark face and a low tone.
"Hey my friend, we're about to win the election, you should be happy!"
Jefferson gave the investor a seat with a smile, and motioned for the assistant to leave.
Soon, only the investor and Jefferson were left in the room.
"Are you crazy?"
As soon as the assistant closed the door, the investor asked impatiently.
"You tell everyone that there are no zombies, but you know that zombies are real!"
"The reason why those zombies are not present all over the world is because of the foot ban and control measures adopted."
"If there is no foot ban, no test strips, the entire Skyhawk Kingdom will be over in less than a day, and my business will be over, do you know that?!"
The investor poked Jefferson's chest with his finger and said.
"Hey, okay, okay, calm down, calm down!"
Jefferson spread his hands to indicate that he was not malicious. Seeing that the investor's mood eased a little, he took a bottle of wine from the wine rack and poured a glass for the investor and himself.
"The reason why I did this is not entirely for myself, but for your consideration, friend!"
Jefferson said seriously.
"You are in the real estate industry, and the outbreak of zombies is a fatal blow to the real estate industry."
"If there are rumors of zombies in the place you develop, do you think people will buy your house? Are they crazy to date zombies?"
"Real estate is sold for its value, the surrounding supporting facilities, prosperity, cultural environment, etc., but as long as there is a zombie"
Jefferson said, and threw the unfinished cigar into the investor's wine glass.
"Then there will be thunderstorms in the whole area, and everything will be over!"
"Now the real estate industry across the country is sluggish due to zombies, but why is the real estate industry in our state so strong?"
"It's not because there is a capital here, but because there are no zombies here. People here firmly believe that there are no zombies in the world."
"I saved you, I helped you, and I'm about to win the election, and you're not happy? I just can't understand it!"
"This" the investor paused, as if it was the reason.
Although he also knew that Jefferson was quibbling, it was also true that his industry had not been affected.
"So, I suggest that you can sell the favors of those voters before the zombies arrive in our state!"
"Now there are a lot of people who are willing to move here from other states to support freedom fighters, and you can sell your property to them at a low price."
"This will not only show your support for freedom fighters, but will not be smashed and robbed like Renxin Medicine, and at the same time, your assets will be liquidated before the plunge. Isn't it good to kill two birds with one stone?"
Jefferson further persuaded.
"The incident of Renxin Medicine was done by freedom fighters?"
"Indeed, I should have thought of it a long time ago, just do it like this, I'll go now!"
The investor was so enlightened that he turned and left the governor's office.
At this time, the assistant knocked on the door again and walked in, with an ugly face, he said:
"Member, we're in trouble!"
"Huh?" Jefferson hurriedly reached out to take the tablet from the assistant's hand.
Here's a piece of news:
"There was a wave of 'honesty' in the elections in various states. Politicians came to power one after another to express their support for freedom fighters, oppose the federal government's deception of the people, and claim that zombies do not exist at all."
Jefferson rolled his eyes and said with some disdain:
"It's just some political speculators. They want to learn from me, but they haven't succeeded!"
"And they're all campaigning in other states, so what does that have to do with me?"
The assistant reminded in a low voice:
"From a campaign standpoint, it really has nothing to do with you, but"
"These states have their own outbreaks of zombie virus, and they are all states that are adjacent to us."
"Before they strictly enforced the foot ban and test strip screening, this did not allow the zombie virus to spread further"
"But now, once they say the same, the government has to compromise in order to cater to public opinion."
"Once their control measures are relaxed, the zombie outbreak will happen sooner or later, and it will soon affect our place."
The assistant's words made Jefferson enlightened!
"I see. Now contact the investor immediately and ask him to add another 1000 million. I just saved him from bankruptcy. He won't care about this little money."
"Okay, Mr. Congressman!" The assistant nodded.
"Then help me buy a plane ticket to Xiadao tomorrow morning, bring my family and yours, and buy enough supplies for 50 years, let's go together, don't forget to contact the local truck in Xiadao."
Jefferson asked again.
"But tomorrow is the last day of canvassing before the general election. Don't you participate in the general election?"
the assistant asked.
"Be sober, in a few days, the governor or something will no longer matter, the most important thing is to be alive."
"I can predict that this country is coming to an end, and if it's a few days later, I'm afraid I won't even be able to book a flight ticket!"
Jefferson sighed.
He completely forgot that he was the first to cause the current situation.
Chapter 145 Skyhawk Kingdom Falls, World Order Collapses
At the same time when Jefferson bought the ticket, many rich people and politicians also felt that the limelight was wrong, and began to look for a way out.
The next day, in the morning.
In the central square, tens of thousands of supporters of freedom fighters gathered here looking forward to it.
Because this is where Jefferson was scheduled to give his final canvassing speech.
But more than ten minutes had passed, and Jefferson still hadn't arrived.
Now the reporters and the public are all at a loss.
After a while, suddenly a radical freedom fighter supporter jumped onto the roof of a car and shouted loudly:
"I know, I know, Jefferson must have been thwarted by these politicians just because he told the truth!"
"We should go to City Hall right now and support Jefferson!"
"Brothers and sisters, our heroes need our support right now!"
This is completely baseless speculation.
But I didn't expect that one stone would stir up thousands of waves, and this sentence would get everyone's response.
Among them, there are many militants who took the opportunity to vent their anger towards the cars and shops on the side of the road, and casually walked away from game consoles, TVs and other valuable electronic products when they left.
Originally, these people who supported the freedom fighters were full of enthusiasm, and they just wanted to ask for an explanation.
But as the number grew and a large number of thugs joined under the banner of freedom fighters, the situation changed immediately.
Worse, however, was that the Freedom Fighters had brought in a dozen people from other states who had failed the paper test in order to support Jefferson.
These people also mixed in the crowd and rushed towards the city hall aggressively.
The police immediately deployed a large number of police forces to provide support as soon as they discovered the movement of dense crowds.
At the gate of the city hall, thousands of armed policemen, armed with explosion-proof shields and batons, wearing helmets and stab-proof suits, stood ready.
Because these people did not have guns, the police did not choose to use guns.
Police in the back row were armed with tear gas launchers.
"There are tens of thousands of people this time, and they are all supporters of freedom fighters and fanatics. There are only 2000 people on our side. Can we hold it?"
the sheriff asked the commander.
"Don't worry, I have seen these scenes many times. Regardless of the number of people, these people are just mobs!"
"In a short while, we only need to force the most violent people to retreat, and then cooperate with tear gas to arrest those who take the lead in making trouble, and the rest will disperse like birds and beasts."
"Don't look at our small number, but we are well-equipped, and we have a unified command and deployment. Naturally, our strength is much stronger than them!"
The commander said with confidence.
At this time, the drone suspended in mid-air to detect the enemy's situation found the target.
"Report, a large number of people are gathering from all directions to the main street, and it is estimated that they will arrive at the main entrance square of the City Hall in 3 minutes!"
said the scout.
"Okay, everyone is ready!"
The commander spoke into the walkie-talkie.
The armed police immediately raised their spirits, one by one close together, and a long shield wall was built.
At this time, the first group of people rushed out from the horizontal road, screaming and running towards the human wall.
From where they appeared, it was more than 200 meters away from the human wall. These people did not come here by walking, but rushed over at a speed of [-] meters.
"These people are a little anxious!"
The commander joked with a smile.
"There seems to be something wrong!"
"If the average person runs a distance of 200 meters at this speed, I'm afraid that most of their physical strength will be exhausted!"
"What's the point of rushing like this?"
"I know that many troublemakers have joined the crowd. They should understand this!"
The sheriff said in surprise.
"Is it true that you say that?"
The commander's face changed drastically, and he said in unison with the sheriff: "It's a zombie?!"
At this time, the group of zombies had already rushed forward.
Their eyes were bloodshot, and their bodies were covered with blood that they didn't know whether it was their own or someone else's.
One by one, almost in a state of madness, roared and rushed towards the shield wall.
In this case, even experienced commanders don't know what to do.
Because it was also his first time facing zombies.
Previously, the Internet was overwhelmingly saying that zombies were fake news, and the media was also reposting them. Congressmen from various states also stood up and said that zombies did not exist.
The words of these influential people had a little influence on the commander.
The preparation this time was completely unprepared.
If they retreat at this time, there is no doubt that these people will be swallowed up by the tide of corpses in an instant.
But if you continue to resist
Two thousand armed policemen without hot weapons have no chance of winning against tens of thousands of zombies!
In addition, the fighting strength of the zombies was simply beyond the charts, and each of them smashed their bodies heavily against the shield wall, quickly breaking through the defense line of the armed police.
The baton hit the zombie's body, but it had no effect at all.
