Chapter 586 The Beginning of the Legend

"Is it already like this?" Coming out of the underground research institute of Gray Dust Crystal, Tilan learned about the current situation.

"Yes, Lord Tilan, the Governor sent an invitation not long ago, hoping that you would go to discuss some things." Two government officials in white work clothes were waiting on the side.

"I know, today... I can arrive at about 7 o'clock in the evening." Tilan looked at the time and it was 10 o'clock in the morning.

"Thank you, we will wait here and lead the way for you." The two looked at each other and then withdrew.

Sitting in the exclusive office, Tilan thought carefully for a while, and then called the personnel of Gray Dust Crystal and the members of his own star cluster in turn, and they also informed them of the intelligence they had obtained.

"Blanche survived the explosion of the starship, which is a blessing. The previous announcement policy of the Central Council was issued on the premise that Blanche was dead. If Blanche was not dead, then the aid given by the Federation might not have the desired effect of appeasement and winning over, but would be considered to be brought by Blanche, which would make her a saint and greatly enhance her reputation. With such a singer alive, the entire Western Star Region will be united as one, and it would not be so easy for the Federation to interfere at that time."

"I don't know if the Federation officials can tolerate Blanche's continued existence." Tilan was a little worried. If Orles had not been promoted at this time, the Federation would probably compromise for the situation, and it was precisely because of Orles' promotion that the Federation officials felt that there was no need to continue to tolerate it.

Regardless of the outcome, this incident has shaken the stability of the Federation. I don't know how many hidden forces are ready to move, and I have to prepare early.

At night, on the large space station of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region Government, Tilan met Governor Temachi.

Because the economy of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region has recovered in recent years, and the situation in all aspects has improved, the governor received a very high number of votes and was easily re-elected. He was also very grateful to the seemingly young girl in front of him.

"Long time no see, Tilan." His address was relatively friendly and easy-going.

"Long time no see, Governor." But Tilan still maintained the proper etiquette.

The two met not formally this time. It was in a high-end restaurant in the space station, which was often used to receive official guests. The environment was very comfortable and elegant. The restaurant was always staffed by security personnel from the star region government.

Sitting next to the thick and transparent transparent window, you can overlook the magnificent planet below, with a unique scenery.

The two briefly reminisced about Tilan's high school days, and then the governor turned the topic to recent events.

"What do you think about this matter?" If it was in the past, he would definitely guide the young singer as an elder, but as Tilan's influence in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region rose sharply, even though he was the governor, he felt that it was better to discuss it to avoid unnecessary arguments and conflicts.

"My opinion..." Tilan tilted her head slightly, curious about why the governor came to ask for her opinion.

She had never considered that she could influence the situation, but since the governor asked, she had to think about how the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region and even the forces that she was familiar with should stand in the future.

"Try to keep a low profile and develop with peace of mind."

"It seems chaotic at the moment, but no one knows what the real outcome will be. In addition, the strength of our Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region is not dominant. Instead of showing up randomly, it is better to accumulate more and develop, and prepare for the war later." Tilan's advice was very steady.

"I understand keeping a low profile, but Tilan, when you mentioned the war..." Governor Temachi frowned slightly, somewhat confused about why the singer in front of him had such a radical view.

"Even if the Western Star Region is in turmoil, it is only a small group of people who are making trouble. The vast majority of people will not die, and the military strength of the Central Council is completely overwhelming." This is not only his idea, but also the view of many local star region forces. The commotion in the Western Star Region seems to be very big this time, but many people still don't think it will change anything.

It's not ancient times anymore. Everyone is used to marches and protests. As long as the authorities are serious and use military means to suppress them, no one dares to risk their lives to resist.

"Yes, war." Tilan shook her head.

"Your Excellency the Governor rarely goes to the people to experience life, right?"

"Every era has its own pain. In the past, it was hunger, and now it is despair without hope. This despair does not torture you directly, but you have a very good wish, hoping that you can get the most basic decent life, but life hits you again and again, making you slowly realize that your whole life has been trapped in a cage, and no matter how you struggle, you are powerless."

"In the past, you were hit and tortured, and although you were injured, at least the people around you and the society acknowledged your pain and misfortune. But the situation now is that even if you try your best and suffer injustice, grievances, and disappointments, everything you endure is still not recognized. They will say that it is because you don't work hard, you are stupid, you didn't seize the opportunity, etc., and tell you the examples of small people who rely on "hard work" to succeed in the news or film and television works, so that you can continue to make progress."

"Even the right to cry out in pain has been deprived, and the moral high ground of public opinion has been robbed. Many depressions and hatreds have nowhere to be expressed, and can only be accumulated in the heart again and again."

"Humans are living animals after all. Don't expect to always suppress different voices with so-called 'correctness'. Only personal feelings are real, and this feeling will gradually make people understand that some truths cannot be answered with 'correctness'."

"True justice must come from the heart, be recognized by all people, and be the most simple emotional intuition."

"But it is obvious that the current Federation does not attach importance to this. The advancement of science and technology has isolated the lives of different classes from each other, making it increasingly difficult for the upper classes to empathize with the lower classes, and this kind of separation will sooner or later cause a huge rift in the entire society."

"Even if the Western Star Region is appeased, the policies will definitely benefit the speculators among the rebels first, because they have more intelligence and resources, and those who are really in need are often the last to get the compensation they deserve." "

Why? Because he is in a weak position. This is the two sides of the same coin. If he is very strong, he will never fall into such a situation. Because he is in a weak position, he needs assistance, and precisely because of his weakness, it is difficult for him to get assistance." Tilan shook her head and expressed her opinion.

"If the Central Council could have sent the aid to those who really needed it earlier, today's disaster would not have happened. It couldn't have happened in the past, and it won't happen suddenly this time. Those clerks won't become good overnight, those who withheld and extorted money won't disappear overnight, and those greedy officials won't suddenly find their conscience."

"This..."

As Temaqi listened, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt that he was under great pressure. Although he didn't mention the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region, it seemed that every sentence was about himself. After all, wasn't it like this before? The compensation aid from the Central Star Region didn't reach the residents below.

"I understand. In the future, I will try my best to clean up the political and business environment in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region so that everyone doesn't have to experience such a bitter and aggrieved feeling." This was the first time that Temaqi felt the huge pressure brought by the singer.

Yes, Tilan is still young, but when she said these words, every word was accompanied by a spiritual tremor, leaving Temaqi with nowhere to hide, as if he saw a living face in front of him, accusing him of his inaction and hypocrisy.

He had never seen these people, but he now believed that such voices must exist, but his lifestyle had always prevented him from facing such people.

In order to show his determination, Temaqi said a lot of plans and ideas, and invited Tilan to give a speech at the Star Region Government.

"If time permits, I will go." Tilan nodded.

After the conversation, the two people's meals were served after the signal. After that, it was a quiet meal time that made Temaqi a little restless. Fortunately, Tilan didn't say anything to embarrass him, and the slightly quiet atmosphere lasted until the end.

After the meeting, Tilan returned to the Jade Skirt. She also had to ask someone familiar to make arrangements in advance. No matter how you look at it, there will be more and more conflicts in the Federation in the future. It's like once the dominoes start, the scope of the impact will only get bigger and bigger.

Just like what she said in the conversation with Temaqi just now, many problems are not created overnight, and conflicts are not intensified in one day, but they are erupted after accumulated problems.

Perhaps this is the self-solution in the spiral of history. If spontaneous reform is too difficult, history will not blame you, but will add more gunpowder until one day the lid explodes and releases all the resentment and anger.

Sitting by the round window of the shuttle, the black-haired girl gathered the thin blanket slightly, leaned back in the chair and closed her eyes to take a nap, while the night outside the window was just the lights of thousands of houses on the dark earth, dotted with stars.

...

Hemu Star Region, Amaranth Star System, Amaranth Σ-2 Living Planet.

This is where Blanche grew up, and it is also the place she was most familiar with in the past.

The streets below were full of protesters, and the smoke generators lit everywhere raised billowing smoke columns and floated high into the sky, announcing the anger and unrest here.

Leaning on the shuttle, she watched this scene quietly until the shuttle slowly descended, and then she broke away from this silent state. The hatch opened, and the hustle and bustle of the outside world rushed in, screaming, alarm horns, roaring and smashing, horn announcements, chaotic and anxious.

Blanche stood up, took a last look out the window, and then walked towards the hatch. At this time, the four guards responsible for protecting her followed and walked out of the hatch with her.

This is the busiest main street in the capital, and at this moment the street is crowded with people of all kinds. Military police hold shields and form walls, like a dam, to resist the surging crowd. The shuttle where Blanche is parked in a temporary square. Outside is a circle of military soldiers. Unlike the police, they wear fully armed exoskeleton armor and hold guns. Once someone approaches 20 meters, they raise their guns and shoot at the ground in front of them to warn and stop.

Many people saw the girl who got off the shuttle. At first, some people were puzzled until a voice suddenly shouted.

"Blanche! It's her, she's still alive!"

So the whole street changed like a tsunami, and countless people swarmed forward to see her.

In response, Blanche raised her hand, and a faint light flashed in her eyes, so nearly a million people in the entire city heard her voice at the same time.

"I am Blanche, please be quiet first." This familiar and kind voice sounded directly in the mind. Even if they did not participate in the parade, the people who were originally working stopped, ran out of the room with surprised eyes, and wanted to see what happened.

In the entire Hemu Star Region, all TV channels broadcast simultaneously, and all residents' personal terminals received information notifications.

People who were eating, working, traveling, playing games, or attending classes all stopped everything they were doing at the same time.

Screens on all the residential planets, space stations, star ports, and starship platforms in the star region began to broadcast everything that happened today simultaneously.

Billions of eyes across space watched the figure slowly walking down from the shuttle, watching her thin figure walk up to the high platform step by step.

"I'm sorry to meet you all at this time." She first bowed to apologize, then raised her body.

"Because of my immaturity, I have brought a lot of sadness and pain to everyone, and made many people angry. This is my fault."

"Before becoming a singer, I never thought that I would become so important, and therefore I ignored everyone's feelings."

"Those who were hurt because of me, I really hope to compensate you in the future, and I will try my best to prevent such things from happening again."

...

"The train of time keeps moving forward. Similar histories have occurred in many western star fields in the past, which has united us and shared a common destiny."

"In the more than one year since I left school, I have been fortunate to travel to many places, including the Gravel Star Field, the Gas Valley Rock Star Field, the Copper Thorn Star Field..."

"I saw many real scenes that were not reported in the news, and I felt depressed, so I wanted to do something."

"But when I really tried to understand the source of this phenomenon, I fell silent again, because this was not a misfortune caused by one or two people, but the indifference and neglect of many people."

"No one took responsibility in this process, everything seemed to be taken for granted, and no one cared about the lonely and helpless voices in the corners."

"If the development of the times has to come at the expense of some people in exchange for the comfort and happiness of others, then this is unfair."

"I admire Her Highness Isanissa very much. She led mankind out of the darkness of the Fifth Era and established today's civilized and peaceful world. I also admire Her Highness Emuraline. Her persistence has made the Federation a new look from corruption and once again move towards glory."

"From the beginning to the end, I believe that it is those lofty and great beliefs that have created today's Rose Federation. Today's brilliance of civilization, whether it is the 'True Red Empire' in the First Era, the 'Mercury Dynasty' in the Second Era, or the 'Cransia' in the Third Era, they all demonstrate certain valuable qualities at the time."

"But now, many people have forgotten this."

"I hope that in the future, the Western Star Region will no longer be a place to survive by begging for others' mercy and charity."

"I hope that in the future, children in the Western Star Region will not need to go to school thousands of light years away and adapt to the local environment with difficulty."

"I hope that in the future, the Western Star Region will have its own proud enterprises, beautiful environment, and indomitable spirit."

"I hope that the residents of the Western Star Region in the future can live a comfortable and stable life like other places in the Federation."

"I hope that the Western Star Region in the future can stand firmly on the earth on its own, without marching, self-harming, or crying to pity others to see all this."

"I am not a very talented singer, and I have never been very smart since I was a child, but I think that if the happiness is earned with my own hands, it is not shameful, and it should not be laughed at."

"Now, I shout to everyone on this planet and this star region, telling you my small wish, I hope it can sprout in everyone's heart and grow slowly."

"Maybe not this year, maybe not in the hands of our generation, but I hope it will come true one day."

"I am willing to sing for this until the end of my life, until the day it comes true." Blanche covered the microphone and slowly lowered her head.

At this moment, it seemed as if an invisible sledgehammer hit everyone's heart. Countless people watched this scene silently, tears streaming down their cheeks, and some people even covered their mouths and slowly squatted down and cried.

Is this the singer you want? Now she is really standing in front of you, speaking out the most suppressed desire and voice in your heart.

Now, are you willing to run, shout, and even sacrifice your life for her?
