Chapter 70 A New Adventure Begins Tomorrow "Ambassador Liang, may I ask you..."
"Ambassador Liang, what are your thoughts on the current online discussions about Dongguo Tianwang's invasion of privacy?"
In the hall of the Human Rights Council in Gerva, the newly appointed ambassador of East Africa to Gerva, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looked at the BBA reporter in front of him, as well as the many foreign media reporters behind him.
"Comrade reporter, our country has always adhered to the principle of putting people first and life first. In the process of promoting social governance and the construction of the public health system, we have always strictly followed our laws and regulations and upheld the principle of respecting and protecting human rights."
Liang Xiaofeng paused, noticing the hunting desire in the eyes of the reporters that he had seen countless times before. He smiled slightly and turned on the holographic projection on his smartwatch.
"Since the implementation of the Skynet system, my country's criminal case clearance rate has increased by 75% year-on-year, and the crime rate has dropped to 0.2%, including many foreign nationals."
Upon hearing his words, the BBA reporter's expression changed instantly, and he immediately thought of his colleague who had been deported.
"In addition, I would like to emphasize that compared with the per capita camera coverage rate in some countries, my country's public security construction pays more attention to the balance between precise prevention and control and social effects."
"Ambassador Liang, did the life-saving serum and medical chambers enter the market without undergoing multiple tests? Does this reflect your country's approach to the right to life of its people?"
Seeing the BBA reporter speechless for a moment, the reporter from country X quickly raised his hand and spoke.
"my country has already conducted targeted training on the market investment in life-generating fluids and medical chambers, so there is no doubt about their safety."
He paused, then watched as the reporter suddenly tapped a few times on his smartwatch, playing a video.
The video was short, but it made the foreign journalists and high-ranking government officials present feel extremely uneasy.
The person receiving treatment in the medical ward in the video was a high-ranking official of their own government, and the person trading the life essence in that dark environment was their own black market, one of whom was even one of the ambassadors present.
"I think you should worry more about your own country's citizens than the people of Dongguo. Using medical pods and life essence without safety training may have unknown effects on the body."
These words immediately filled everyone with unease. Among them were those who had secretly purchased the Life Essence from the black market, and if there was a problem, it would be a huge trouble.
The conference ended quickly amidst everyone's anxiety.
"Deputy Director Liang, could you please tell us whether the life-saving serum and medical pods will be sold to other countries in the future?" After receiving a phone call, the BBA reporter quickly approached Liang Xiaofeng.
Liang Xiaofeng seemed unsurprised by his question, and nodded with a smile: "Of course, Dongguo has always adhered to the cooperative policy of friendly relations with its neighbors."
"When will trading begin? Will you help train operators?" the reporter pressed.
"This matter is still under discussion, and it's inconvenient to disclose it at this time," Liang Xiaofeng replied politely, then ignored him and quickly left with his bodyguards.
The video of the Zhirva human rights conference appeared on the front page of major media outlets almost instantly.
When the people of Dongguo saw the BBA reporter's relentless pursuit in the news, and the ambassador's sudden change in expression after being exposed for secretly buying medicine, countless memes immediately arose.
"Did you see that? The ambassador was condemning our country, but he was immediately proven wrong. It's hilarious."
"Wow, those BBAs are so shameless. Even if we gave them to you, we wouldn't do it right away."
"Speaking of which, was Ambassador Liang's statement about adhering to a cooperative policy of good neighborliness specifically directed at Country A?"
"I think so, after all, our neighbor doesn't have Country A."
"To give to Da Mao?"
"Da Mao... is he alright?"
"Forget it, the territory that has been occupied the most by them is the one that has been occupied by us."
"It's only been a few years since the Sixty-Four Villages East of the River and the Hailanpao Incident."
"The country thinks more about things than we do, so listening to the country is the right thing to do."
"Few enemies, many friends."
"Yes, no one has forgotten, but... it's not time to settle accounts yet..."
The conversation ended in a somber atmosphere.
"Brother, the Boxer Rebellion... was it really deleted from history books?" Sang Zhitao asked Sang Leping beside her with some surprise.
"It seems there was such a thing, and it caused quite a stir before." Sang Lezhi brought her a plate of melons and happened to hear what she said, so she sighed softly and replied.
Seeing that her younger sister's expression was not good, Sang Leping asked, "Tao Tao, are you feeling very sad? Would the country make this choice?"
Sang Zhitao hesitated for a moment before slowly shaking her head: "Even if Russia is not doing so well now, it is still a powerful country. How can we allow others to snore beside our bed? In the early days of its founding, Russia also extended a helping hand to us. Although it was because of the Cold War, kindness is kindness. The people of East Asia are not ungrateful people."
Sang Leping patted her head: "Yes, considering the territorial disputes and diplomatic considerations, this matter was indeed suppressed to some extent."
"That's not all. Systematic research on the Boxer Rebellion in Russia is relatively recent, and we still lack a lot of authoritative data to support it. Nowadays, relevant courses are already available as electives in major universities, and I think the public will gradually become aware of them in the future."
"What are you talking about? Let's eat first." Although Sang Lezhi's husband was a resolute soldier, he always did all the housework at home because he felt that he had neglected his wife for a long time while he was in the army.
Seeing her husband bring out a pot of dumplings, Sang Lezhi smiled and went forward to take them before calling to her siblings.
"Brother-in-law's cooking is pretty good!" Sang Zhitao looked at the six dishes and one soup on the table. She didn't expect that this honest-looking man she met for the first time would have such good cooking skills.
Liu Dayong looked at his wife's younger sister, whom his wife had been longing for for a long time and had just found and moved into the secret base, with a hint of shyness.
He looked at his wife and said, "Your sister has been working so hard, so I was thinking of letting her rest more when we get home, and I'll take care of her."
"Hurry up and eat!" Sang Lezhi blushed under his gaze and couldn't help but scold him playfully.
Liu Dayong remained as honest and simple as ever, completely unconcerned about his wife's scolding.
"Speaking of which, how about we go to the amusement park tomorrow? There's a newly built mythology-themed amusement park around here, it's quite interesting." Sang Lezhi saw her sister's sly smile and guessed that she was about to do something naughty, so she quickly changed the subject.
“Great! Come to think of it, we’ve never been to an amusement park before.” Sang Leping nodded in approval.
"Wouldn't that be a bad idea..." Sang Zhitao hesitated.
"It's alright, I'll call and ask later." Seeing the longing in her eyes, Sang Le quickly smiled and reassured her.
Before Sang Zhitao could hesitate again, Zhang Jing, the bodyguard who had been protecting her, suddenly spoke up: "The commander said that you can go anywhere you want. Protecting you is our responsibility, not your burden."
Seeing that she had said that, Sang Zhitao nodded without further hesitation.
Perhaps because she's been too busy lately, she didn't feel there was any harm in not going out. But after suggesting going out today, her suppressed emotions exploded. She even stopped sleeping and started rummaging through her closet to put together an outfit.
"Sweetie, go to sleep early. You look good in anything." Sang Leping yawned as he looked at his younger sister, his face filled with helplessness and doting affection.
As for Sang Lezhi, she and her husband had already gone back to their room. After all, this was a rare opportunity for them to spend time together, and they didn't want to waste it on their sister.
“Okay…” Sang Zhitao looked at her phone and realized it was already 2 a.m., so she had to put down the clothes she was about to try on.
Losing interest in trying on clothes, drowsiness washed over her, and Sang Zhitao subconsciously yawned.
"Go to sleep early, let Auntie clean up tomorrow." Sang Leping looked at the clothes scattered all over the bed and floor, helped her carry them to the bay window, then turned and went to sleep.
Sang Zhitao yawned a few times and then obediently lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
"What's that?" Sang Zhitao pointed to a black ball about half a person's height that was following the patrolman.
“It’s a spherical patrol robot. It not only monitors without blind spots, but it can also directly capture bad guys,” Sang Leping explained to her. This was the thirteenth question she had asked today.
Sang Zhitao nodded thoughtfully, then looked up at the giant floating screen in the sky, feeling a sense of helplessness, as if she had just emerged from a century of seclusion.
“Our country has changed a lot, you’ll gradually realize it,” Sang Leping said with a smile, patting her head.
Sang Zhitao subconsciously opened a new media platform, where elderly people left behind in rural areas were enjoying their later years under the care of robots, and children left behind in rural areas were taking classes with robots.
Farmers on the black soil use smart, brain-connected agricultural equipment to grow crops, while they can simply sit in air-conditioned rooms, sipping tea and enjoying life.
The elderly in the mountainous areas are helped by mini agricultural equipment, and smartwatches have also added a children's mode, so even people who cannot read have no trouble operating them.
Young people flaunt driverless taxis and hovercrafts, drink beverages containing New01, eat food containing New01, and occasionally open their wrist virtual screens to play a few games.
With the eight-hour workday fully implemented, overtime has become a thing of the past, and even basic salaries have been rising again and again due to continuous technological advancements.
And the young people, finally freed from their heavy workloads, are now earning decent salaries, entering the business world, and getting married.
As a result, Dongguk's birth rate has reached a new high this year.
As for the risks and traumas associated with childbirth, these have completely disappeared with the improvement of medical facilities.
For ordinary women, childbirth is no longer a life-threatening ordeal, but as easy as doing aerobic exercise.
The birth incentive program was implemented concurrently, and twelve years of free education further ensured that raising children would no longer be a burden on families.
"This is so nice..." Sang Zhitao, who had just returned to her brother's house after a walk outside, said with a sip of cola.
"You'd better not drink this cola. Drink our own brand instead. It's made with crops that contain New 01." Sang Lezhi took the cola back from her hand and put a new bottle in her hand.
"Okay, let's go back tomorrow." Sang Zhitao smiled and took the cola.
Sang Lezhi was somewhat surprised: "Don't you plan to stay a few more days?"
Sang Zhitao shook her head: "No, I feel it, a new adventure is calling me."
Hearing her say this, Sang Lezhi's expression turned serious, and she immediately said, "To prevent any accidents, you should return to the base today!"
Sang Zhitao was about to say it was okay when she suddenly noticed the green light flashing on her chest and subconsciously nodded in response, "Alright."
They left in a low-key manner, and they left in a low-key manner as well.
"After compiling information from three worlds, we suspect that the next world will appear in the Gem World, the Microcosm, or the Floating World. The data has been compiled here. Please read the original text first to prepare yourself."
“Okay.” Sang Zhitao nodded and took the thick stack of documents.
After arranging everything, Sang Lezhi left with some worries, and the others at the base did not bother her.
As expected, the unexpected happened. That night, Sang Zhitao was surrounded by a familiar green light, and she disappeared from the observation room once again.
