Allie moved quickly. Early the next morning, she came to Fangzheng.
"You've made up your mind?"
Asked Fangzheng with a smile as he looked at his student in front of him. Allie hesitated for a moment.
"I … I don't know. What you said yesterday, Mr. Fangzheng, surprised me, and frankly, what you said is completely different from what most people think, but I think what you said makes sense. However, I think what you said makes sense. Given Crosbell's current situation, he might have to resort to some special means to solve the problem. So, I want to see what you plan to do, Mr. Fangzheng. "
"That's not a problem."
Fangzheng stood up.
"Come with me. We're going to a place next."
Allie followed Fangzheng to the Crossrail News Agency in the Hong Kong area.
"This place ….?"
"We acquired the shares of Crossrail a long time ago. You can say that this place has long been a part of Starlight Technology."
"Huh? Is, is there such a thing? Why don't we know about it? "
"Because Crossrail's stock market lacks regulation. Don't look at me like that, I'm not trying to cheat you. 'Lack of regulation' is the characteristic of Crossrail's stock market. Do you understand what I mean?"
"… Characteristic?"
"That's right. In the financial field, Crossrail is actually a place outside the law. It is not governed by the financial laws of the Empire or the Republic. It has its own financial system. But this financial system lacks regulatory means, or rather, they are not qualified to regulate it. But this is very convenient for many lawbreakers. "
"… I still don't quite understand …."
"Simply put, it's money laundering."
Fangzheng raised a finger.
"With the help of Crossrail's financial system, people from the Republic and the Empire can easily launder the black money they earn into white money. A large part of Crossrail's prosperity is built on this. So strictly speaking, Crossrail's financial market is not 'lacking regulation', but deliberately 'reducing regulation'. "
"…."
Allie swallowed hard.
"But why do you want to buy Crosbell News Agency?"
"It's very simple. Because if you don't occupy the position of public opinion, the enemy will. Passively taking a beating isn't my style. Since I'm going to do it anyway, I might as well take the initiative … Oh right, Allie, do you remember what I told you yesterday about Chairman Dita's plan? "
"… Well … of course I remember."
"I also said at the time that CEO Dita hoped to manipulate the cult he secretly funded to launch an attack on Crossrail, thereby awakening the Crossrail people's sense of crisis and achieving the goal of supporting independence. Do you think his approach was correct?"
"Of course it's wrong."
"Then which part is wrong?"
"Woo …"
Facing Fangzheng's barrage of questions, Allie couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. It was as if the teacher was giving her special attention, and she couldn't skip class.
"Of course it's to attack Crosser to achieve our goal."
"Something like that. That's why I don't think highly of CEO Dita's plan. Only when there are no contradictions would there be a need to create contradictions. But the problem is that Crosser itself doesn't lack contradictions, so in my opinion, CEO Dita's approach is simply a waste of energy. How many people have suffered from the Empire and Republic in Crosser for so many years? Of course that's not the case, but what can they do? As you can see, the Crosser Parliament doesn't care about this. There are objective constraints, but there are also subjective reasons. Even if the victims protest and object, it won't make any difference. "
At this point, Fangzheng pointed to the surroundings.
"So, they gradually kept quiet, because they know that they can't do anything. Just like slaves, at first, you may be angry and resist because of your master's rough treatment. But when you realize that no matter what you say or do, no one will help you out of the abyss of suffering, you will choose to give up and keep quiet. But no matter how much you keep quiet, you can't make the things that have already happened disappear completely. "
"…"
Allie looked at the passersby on the streets and listened to Fangzheng's words. Her heart was in turmoil. Of course, she understood what Fangzheng meant, but she didn't believe it. Or rather, she didn't want to believe that so many people had suffered because of this, and yet her grandfather didn't do anything about it.
"So, Mr. Fangzheng, what do you plan to do?"
"It's simple. First, a leader has to stand up and tell his experience. He won't be afraid of the wrath of the Empire and Republic, nor will he shut up because of the suppression of the Crosser Parliament. As long as such a person stands up, the others will also be influenced by him. That's why I said that the Kurois Family is a bunch of idiots. They clearly have a better way to achieve their conditions, but they chose the stupidest path."
"But … Is there such a person?"
Allie asked doubtfully when she heard Fangzheng's words. According to Fangzheng, there weren't many people who could fulfill this request.
"Of course there is. Oh, he's here."
As he said that, Fangzheng looked at the other side of the street with a smile. Allie followed his gaze and was shocked.
She saw the Sword Sage of the Wind, Ariosse, slowly walking over. He stopped in front of Fangzheng and bowed to him.
"Greetings, Lord Fangzheng."
"You're welcome. How's her condition?"
"Thanks to you, the child has now recovered to her original state."
Speaking of his daughter, Ariosse finally smiled.
"To be honest, she wasn't used to it at first, but now she can clearly see colors and the sky and the earth again …"
"That's good. It's good to live as an ordinary child."
Hearing Ariosse's answer, Fangzheng nodded.
"So, you're ready to accept the interview, right?"
"Yes."
Ariosse's expression suddenly turned serious when he heard Fangzheng's question.
"I won't hide anything anymore. I want … to tell the truth."
"Very well, come on."
Fangzheng turned around and led Ariosse and Allie into the news agency. They came to a reception room, where a female reporter was already waiting. When she saw Ariosse, she stood up happily and chatted with him. Then, the two sides began the interview.
"Mr. Fangzheng, what are you going to do?"
Allie, who was listening to the interview on both sides, asked Fangzheng in a low voice.
"It's simple. An interview with the Sword Sage of the Wind, Ariosse. Isn't he very famous in Crossbell? That's why the Crossbell News Agency has always wanted to give him an interview, but he refused. So this time, I invited him over for an interview. "
"That's … that's it?"
"Of course, we don't need to make up any lies. He just needs to tell the truth."
Fangzheng put his hands behind his back and stared at Ariosse.
"That's why I said that Dita Kurois is really a retard. There's enough corruption and depravity under the bright and beautiful surface of Crossbell. He just needs to expose them. But unfortunately, he chose another way to solve the problem … Sigh, maybe there's something wrong with his brain. "
The interview gradually came to an end. The female reporter flipped through the notebook in her hand and spoke again.
"Then, thank you for accepting my interview, Mr. Ariosse. I have one last question for you. According to our investigation, three years ago, you were still a police officer in the Klossberg Police Station. So, what made you take off your police uniform and join the guerrilla organization to become a guerrilla? "
"The reason …."
Talking about this topic, Ariosse seemed a little melancholic, but he still continued to talk.
"I think you might know that three years ago, there was a transport truck explosion on the main road."
"Well … Yes, we did report on this incident at the time."
"At the time, my wife and daughter were also there. They were involved in the explosion. My wife unfortunately lost her life, and my lovely daughter also lost her sight. Since then, she has been hospitalized in St. Ursula Hospital for treatment."
"That's really unfortunate news."
Hearing this, the female reporter also lowered her head to express her condolences.
"So, that's why you chose to leave the police station …."
"No, of course it's not that simple."
"… Huh?"
"As a matter of fact, the explosion of the transport vehicle at that time was the result of the espionage battle between the Empire and the Republic in Crossrail. But because the higher-ups of the Crossrail parliament had concerns about the Empire and the Republic, they naturally suppressed the matter. Under their pressure, the police investigation of the incident was also hastily concluded. I was very disappointed with their behavior, so I chose to leave the police station, join the guerrilla organization, and become a guerrilla. "
"There's such a thing!?"
Hearing this, the female reporter's eyes lit up.
"This, this is really shocking news, Mr. Ariosse. I'm not suspecting you, but … .do you have any evidence to prove this?"
"Someone in the Search Department should have evidence, and not only for the transport truck explosion three years ago, but also for the airship accident in Crossbell thirteen years ago. Or rather, in the past few years, because of the war between the Empire and the Republic, Crossbell has suffered a lot of losses, and many people have lost their loved ones as a result. But none of them could wait for the truth. Everything was suppressed by the Crossbell Parliament in the name of 'accident' and 'accident'. "
"… … …"
Hearing this, Allie sucked in a breath of cold air. She looked at Fangzheng in surprise.
"Mr. Fangzheng, is this what you meant by …."
"That's right, the Sword of the Wind, Ariosse.
With his strength, he won't be afraid of the pressure from the Republic or the Empire, nor will he be afraid of the higher-ups of the Crossbell Parliament. Plus, he has a high prestige among the people of Crossbell …. Is there any problem? "
"But … but he's a guerrilla. The principle of a guerrilla is not to get involved in politics, right?"
"That's right, so it's fine as long as he doesn't become a guerrilla."
"… … …"
This time, Allie was completely dumbfounded by Fangzheng's answer.
"Don't … .become a guerrilla?"
"That's right. Ariosse became a guerrilla because he was disappointed with the political situation in Crossbell, and also because he wanted to raise money for his daughter's treatment. But now, I've decided to change the entire Crossbell, and his daughter's eyes have been cured. Ariosse no longer has any reason to stay in the Guerrilla Society. If the Guerrilla Society asks him to apologize for this … .then Ariosse will immediately leave the Guerrilla Society. "
Saying this, the corners of Fangzheng's mouth curled up slightly.
"Now, the flames of resistance have begun to burn. Next, let's see how many Light of the Soul these flames can light up."
