Chapter 393 Substantial Evidence
The news about the nanochip spread in Floating City for three days.
Three days is enough time for all the survivors in the floating city to understand the capital's nanochip plan.
Xia Xiaoman waited at home for three days, and seeing that the authorities had not taken any action, she guessed that Yu Jie might have deliberately allowed the rumors to grow.
From the recording Jiang Yue gave her, it can be heard that Yu Jie did not approve of the nanochip project. So when the message was spread, Xia Xiaoman was betting on Yu Jie's attitude.
Now that it was confirmed that Yu Jie was on their side, Xia Xiaoman settled Maodan down and went to the official headquarters.
Yu Jie was a little surprised to know that Xia Xiaoman was looking for her. She didn't want to see Xia Xiaoman at first. But considering that she took a space jade Buddha from Xia Xiaoman last time and didn't give Xia Xiaoman any substantial reward, she asked Lu Lanshan to bring him to her office.
"What do you want from me?" Yu Jie asked.
Xia Xiaoman got straight to the point and said, "Mayor Yu, there have been rumors in the garrison recently that the capital will give us a vaccine when we enter the underground city. The vaccine contains a chip that can be detonated. I wonder if this is true?"
Yu Jie raised her head and looked at her. "Are you here to ask for an explanation like those survivors who are blocking the office?"
Xia Xiaoman smiled and said, "The rumor about nanochips is so widespread, it must not be groundless. I came here just to know your attitude, Mayor Yu. Do you want to inject nanochips into us as required by the capital? Or... do you have other plans?"
Yu Jie picked up the document next to her and said as she read it, "What can I plan? We will do whatever the higher-ups tell us to do."
Seeing her speaking in an official tone, Xia Xiaoman was not angry and continued, "I heard that Mayor Yu went to Yunhai City the day before yesterday, and the next day Yunhai City released the rumor spreader. This should be due to Mayor Yu's contribution, right?"
Yu Jie put down the document and looked at Xia Xiaoman, "What on earth do you want to say?"
Xia Xiaoman curled the corners of her lips and took out a fully charged mobile phone from her pocket, "Mayor Yu, don't be in a hurry, listen to this first." As she said that, she opened the recording in her mobile phone.
Hearing the voice coming from the phone, Yu Jie's face changed, "Where did you get this recording? Has anyone else heard this recording?"
Xia Xiaoman smiled and said, "Many people have heard this recording, but I won't tell you who they are."
"From the recording, it can be seen that Mayor Yu also does not agree to inject nanochips into the survivors. Coincidentally, I don't want to install a time bomb on my body. Since our goals are the same, why don't we work together to prevent the capital from implementing the nanochip plan."
"Cooperation? What qualifications do you have to cooperate with me?" Yu Jie looked at Xia Xiaoman with a scrutinizing gaze.
Xia Xiaoman said, "I have a way to change the program of the nanochip, turning it from a time bomb into a small chip that only has a positioning function."
Yu Jie's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Do you know how to change the program of the nanochip?"
Xia Xiaoman smiled. She only said that she had a way, but she didn't say that she knew how to change the program. If the time came to change the program, the worst that could happen was to expose Jiang Yue. If you dare to let her work for nothing, you should be prepared for her revenge.
Jiang Yue, who didn't know at this time that he would have to change the program to break his hand in the future, sneezed loudly, wiped his nose, and continued to track another unlucky guy who was injected with a chip.
Yu Jie learned that Xia Xiaoman could change the chip program, and finally stopped beating around the bush with Xia Xiaoman. "In order to remotely control the survivors in each underground city, the capital will always monitor the status of each survivor. Even if you change the program of the chips of all the survivors in the city, after a long time, the capital will still find abnormalities."
Xia Xiaoman said, "Changing the chip program is just to delay time. As long as we let people in all cities know the dangers of nanochips before they are discovered by the capital, and encourage them to oppose nanochips, all other problems can be easily solved."
Yu Jie shook her head. "Your idea is good, but it's unrealistic. Not every city leader will consider the survivors."
"The nanochips are mainly targeted at the survivors at the bottom. Officials and military personnel do not need to be injected with nanochips. In other words, the nanochip plan will not have any impact on them. On the contrary, they can use nanochips to better manage their own cities."
"So once someone appears in their city who resists the nanochip project, they will immediately send people to arrest them and will never let anyone make a big fuss about it."
With the pressure from the top leaders, the survivors could not oppose the nanochip project even if they wanted to, just like what happened in Yunhai City two days ago. The rumor was only spread for one day, and the person who spread the rumor was arrested, leaving no chance for the survivors to make a big fuss.
Xia Xiaoman pursed her lips and said, "It is because the top leaders in other cities are not taking action that I came to you for cooperation."
The survivors were able to be suppressed and not cause trouble because, firstly, the authorities acted too quickly and the rumormongers were arrested before they had time to react. Secondly, the rumors they spread were just rumors. There was no substantial evidence to prove the existence of nanochips, and no one could prove that nanochips would explode.
When people are not facing danger directly, they will subconsciously refuse to face it. When the disaster appears before their eyes, it is too late.
Just like Jiang Yue said, she had been spreading the news about nanochips all the way south, but how many people really took it seriously? The fundamental reason was that there was no substantial evidence, so the survivors did not believe it.
Xia Xiaoman came to Yu Jie just to get some substantial evidence. "As long as you are willing to cooperate in shooting a set of videos and agree to broadcast the videos to various cities. When the survivors in other cities see it, they will believe that the nanochip plan is real. Only when they believe it will they resist in order to survive."
Yu Jie looked hesitant when she heard this. If she shot this set of videos, her career might be over, and even her life might be over.
Just as she was hesitating, Lu Lanshan, who had been eavesdropping at the door, suddenly rushed in and shouted, "No! Yu Jie, you can't agree to her. Think about your son. He is only six years old. Can you bear to let him be motherless at such a young age?"
