The fusion of beauty and comics

Chapter 51 51. Influence
In Gotham City, after half a day, the mutated monsters in the urban area were finally cleaned up. The turmoil seemed to be over on the surface, but under the undercurrent, the movements of the owls were covered up, and few people noticed it.

When this riot is over, it will be the time when the situation will really ferment.

Gotham, as the top metropolis in the United States, is one of the economic centers. How can such a large-scale terrorist attack not shock people. What's more, the victims are not all ordinary people, but also some rich and powerful.

Federal News will now broadcast the latest news for you: "At about 2:2000 midnight today, Gotham City suffered a terrorist attack. number."

"In addition, sources familiar with the matter revealed that Jerion, chairman of the Shell Group, one of the top 25 companies in the United States, Congressman Reinhart of the Democratic Party, Hugh Gaia, the third prosecutor of Gotham City, and the current head of the Leonard family of Gotham City Simmons Leonard and [-] people were killed in the attack, and no organization has claimed responsibility for the incident for the time being."

Channel 1 of New York brings you the latest news: "On this night when everyone was sleeping soundly, Gotham City encountered a rare monster attack. Hundreds of prehistoric giants suddenly rushed into the city. There were 3000 casualties, including 25 wealthy officials, and no organization or individual has declared responsibility for the incident.”

Metropolis News: "…"

Seattle Morning News: "…"

Chicago Auto Channel: "…"

Daily Planet: "..."

The Gotham attack directly ignited the mainstream media in the United States, but before the cause was found out, all the major media made a neutral report that was neither black nor flattering, except for one.

New York, Daily Bugle.

Mustache owner J. Jonah Jameson slammed the newspaper in his hand to the ground.

"Damt it! Peter Parker, can't you write an interesting press release? How is that different from other media? We need to stand out, not follow the crowd, understand?"

Intern reporter Peter Parker picked up the newspaper: "But boss, everyone reported it like this, and it's only been less than eight hours, and we haven't got any internal information. How should we proceed?"

"Idiot, do I need to teach you this? We are a newspaper office, what we need is traffic, and how does the traffic come from? It must catch people's attention. If you don't know the inside information, can't you guess? It’s the basic skills of a reporter, and you haven’t even learned these?”

Peter Parker was scolded for being bloody. When he walked out of the boss's office, he was still dizzy, but in the end he kept his professional ethics and said that he was incapable of making things up.

"Idiot, you can only go back to the street and take a picture of that Spider-Man with a grid drawn on his long johns, Eddie Brock, get the hell out of here."

Even when he was out of the office, Peter Parker could still hear the roar of his boss. He was so frightened that he hurriedly left and bumped into his colleague Eddie Brock who trotted over.

"Sorry Eddie, I didn't mean to."

Eddie Brock didn't care, and ran to the boss's office quickly, feeling that his chance had come.

Sure enough, an hour later, the Daily Bugle reported the time of the Gotham attack on the entire front page, but its angle was strange and tricky.

Objective reports only accounted for a small part, and most of them were criticizing the incompetence of the Gotham Police Department. In addition, they made speculations about the cause of the monster, pointed at the secret experiment inside the Wayne Group, and called on the judicial department to investigate the incompetence of the Wayne Group. En Group launched an investigation.

.........................................................

Washington, D.C., White House, Conference Room One.

The president was watching the quarrel of the few people below with a headache. It is no surprise that the people who can sit in this conference room are all high-level people in the core of American power.

The reason for their quarrel was naturally the Gotham attack, and the key point of the quarrel was why the National Guard stood by and did not send troops.

An old man in his 70s and [-]s slapped the table angrily and shouted: "It is because of the dereliction of duty of the National Guard that caused the death of Representative Reinhardt, Chairman of Shell Group Jerion and others, you must be responsible for this matter! "

The Governor of Illinois, where Gotham City is located, Jeffrey Jones, also slapped the table angrily: "You must know that it was midnight, and it is normal to have a delay, and after receiving the news, everyone in the state assembly quickly rushed to the government. "

"And after we discussed it, we issued an order to the National Guard stationed near Gotham City. The whole process did not exceed 45 minutes."

"Fart! Your commander, Mars, said that he didn't receive any orders at all, and the Gotham Police Department called for help three times, but he ignored them and insisted on waiting for your bullshit orders."

The old white blond man sitting at the top, who is the current president of the United States, said: "Speaker McConaughey, I know that Congressman Reinhart is a key figure in the Democratic Party and a junior you have always looked forward to, but you can't do it because of this." Criticism of framing Governor Jones."

"The reason why the decree was not smooth was just investigated. It was because the communications soldiers in the National Guard were drunk and accidentally damaged the communications equipment. This led to this incident. They will definitely be punished by law, but this incident It has nothing to do with Governor Jones, he did what he was supposed to do."

When McConaughey heard the words, his anger rose even higher. They are all foxes of a thousand years. He can see clearly the doorway here at a glance.

The incumbent president is the Republican Party, and Illinois, as the traditional Republican vote, Governor Jones is naturally a member of the Republican Party.

However, in recent years, the wind direction in Illinois has changed, and voters have accepted the Democratic Party's ruling philosophy. McConaughey saw this opportunity and directly sent his confidant, Senator Reinhardt, to Gotham City.

Congressman Reinhardt really lived up to expectations. After several years of cooperation, he not only gained a firm foothold in Gotham, but also brought consortiums such as the Shell Group and the Leonard Family to the Democratic Party, willing to provide them with financial support.

At the same time, Gotham City, as the economic core of Illinois, not only has a population of over [-] million, but also has a great influence on the entire state. Once it is captured here, the entire state may be shaken.

But when the development momentum is so good, people die suddenly. If there is no trick in it, it is impossible to believe that McConaughey is killed.

However, in the face of a strong president, he has no other good solution. He has made up his mind that any proposals proposed by the Congress in the future will never be passed again.

"Humph! Just wait and see!"

McConaughey walked away angrily.

After he left, the president turned his attention to a pair of men and women who had not spoken, to be precise, a pair of black men and women.

The man was wearing a windbreaker and a blindfold, as if he was blind in one eye.

The woman is wearing a professional suit, with thick lips and sharp eyes, she is not a character to be trifled with at first glance.

"Then, Director Fury and President Waller, let's talk about your views."

　Thanks to Ban Dalu for the reward, and to all the supportive book friends, a new day has begun again!
