Minaret, meeting room.
The warm light shone on everyone, making their hoods seem a little stuffy.
Although it was almost December, the old-time technology with its excellent thermostatic layer still kept the entire spire at a constant comfortable temperature.
Arthur's arrival seemed to have set off a new trend. Ever since he officially announced his joining of Parliament after the investiture ceremony, he seemed to be making steady progress.
This style is not only reflected in the handling of affairs, but also in meetings.
Ever since he brought a high-brightness standing desk lamp to the first meeting, he seemed to have fallen in love with decoration.
Not only is the meeting room no longer solemn as before, there are even two pots of flowers at the door - fake ones.
The Speaker said that sometimes a serious meeting room needs a little embellishment, but using real plants seems a bit wasteful, and there is also the risk of them being corrupted by mycelium.
So in the end, the Speaker spent 60 information coins out of his own pocket to buy two pots of second-hand artificial flowers from the outer city.
These cheap creations probably never thought that they could enter such an important place in their lifetime. Although they seem to be out of tune with the surrounding environment, they seem to be more and more pleasing to the eye after a period of time.
"I don't agree."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
This comes from Yang Suyan, a member of the Changsheng faction, and Gao Xi, a member of the Chengchuan faction.
The two men have a great degree of control over the factory and its various affiliated units, and are essentially the behind-the-scenes masters of this large organization.
Although other congressmen like Nia were able to have a say through their own channels, when Speaker Arthur proposed a screening of all factories, the two of them expressed clear opposition.
There is no way, the Speaker is really going to get hurt if he keeps taking one step at a time.
To be fair, for people at the top of power like congressmen, money is no longer a general commodity for them.
But they still like and revel in the feeling of power.
But now the Speaker is so disrespectful?
Faced with the current situation, the parliamentarians actually have very complicated feelings.
First of all, the speaker in front of me is not someone who cannot be talked to.
The other party wanted to enter the center of power, so after giving them a big stick, they also fed them sweet dates.
The reason is very simple. Even if the other party has the same authority as them, they can initiate a formal vote through the spacecraft system and deprive Arthur of his authorization.
But another problem is that if the other party is not the authority holder, then the authority holder’s rules cannot constrain the other party, and that person might really punch them into a vegetable...
So in the eyes of the congressmen, they and Arthur are now in a stalemate -
We won't vote you out, and we're willing to let you, who is born to work hard, work hard, so just don't cause us any trouble.
Otherwise, the worst that can happen is that we all die together.
With the tacit understanding between both parties, everyone can now finally sit down and have a good talk.
But... this Speaker seems to have gone a bit too far.
"Oh, you don't agree, why?"
Arthur maintained the utmost respect for the congressmen. He seemed to have anticipated the explicit opposition from the two men and the vague opposition from others, but he still began his questioning very patiently.
"There is no need to conduct an inventory because there is no problem with the current structure. That's it."
Yang Suyan's words sounded harsh, but they represented his bottom line.
He thought the speaker would start arguing with him, but... the other party seemed to accept this statement.
Arthur leaned back in his chair and said slowly:
"Okay, I won't investigate this matter, but there is another thing -
"Which of you has sent someone to follow me recently? I always feel like there's someone following me when I go outside."
This question was asked openly, as if Arthur no longer wanted to maintain a false peace.
This guy is always like this, able to find an extremely thin wire between overturning the table and abiding by the rules, and then dance on it, constantly testing everyone's bottom line.
After these words were spoken, several people present inevitably trembled slightly.
They actually don't really want to do this kind of thing.
But Arthur is a guy who can neither be talked nor beaten, and now has some ideas and wants to make a career, so he has to pay attention to the other party's usual actions.
At least you still have to report where you go every day, and this doesn’t seem... to be illegal.
Among the people whose bodies stiffened slightly at this moment was Congresswoman Nia.
In the past two days, she has replaced her subordinates with other super-powered people, and Shi Jin was sent to follow Arthur.
Although she didn't hold much illusions, Nia always felt that this super-powered person who could actively manipulate time to a certain extent was a good tracker.
Besides, she had analyzed the video of Arthur's battle several times, and the other party did not seem to have the power in this regard...
However, it seems that Shi Jin was exposed after all. It seems that this young person cannot be blamed for this. If she were more powerful... she might have some inappropriate thoughts.
Thinking of this, Nia had already made plans to apologize, just like Zhong Ding did before, at least her attitude would be more correct and she wouldn't lose any weight.
Just when she was about to express her opinion, Arthur suddenly spoke again:
"I understand your concerns. Just like the old story about the Sword of Damocles, no one wants to see someone like me.
"So, I can also not pursue this matter~
"But this raises a new question—"
broken!
Several people thought in their hearts that this was not good.
The Speaker is playing the long game to catch a big fish, and it is clear that what he really wants to say next is.
This purpose is deeply hidden under the other two questions. Question A is raised first, everyone objects, so they say they don’t care and raise question B. They again say they don’t care, and then raise question C.
To be fair, can you still refuse the other party at this time?
Theoretically, it is possible, but in practice it is somewhat difficult.
You refuse everything I say. It seems you don't give face to the Speaker?
If the Speaker is unhappy, someone will be in trouble.
Arthur can't do anything to those with authority, but is there any way he can deal with their subordinates?
By then, everyone will be left alone and there won't be any problems with the spacecraft system.
But the first two questions were also life-threatening, and they really couldn't let Arthur mess around.
Thinking of this, the councillors all felt like they were visiting a grave, and they also felt relieved:
"Please tell me, what is the problem?"
Arthur thought for a few seconds and said:
"I noticed that you seem to have taken some superpowers back for your own use and erased their identity documents.
"Excuse me, is this legal?"
