The Blacklight Virus Invades the Marvel Universe

Chapter 42. Heroes are also human beings, ordinary people like you and me!

"Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats. The first candidate will be invited to speak on the stage."

During Speaker Anna's announcement, the door to the entire venue slowly closed.

At this moment, several military bosses and representatives of the Senate appeared at the door of the venue.

For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to him, and even the candidates who were about to take the stage to give a speech stopped.

The governor, who was sitting on the main seat, frowned and looked at these unkind people. In particular, the leading three-star Lieutenant General Harms is a well-known hardliner in the military.

"Dear friends, I hope our sudden arrival did not disturb you. Please continue."

The leader of the group, the old man, bowed to everyone with a kind and gentlemanly expression, and nodded and smiled at the governor and speaker of the ceremony.

Speaker Anna and the governor looked at each other in tacit understanding and looked at Chen Junyu, who was candidate for the seat.

The latter just glanced at the visitor lightly, and then stopped paying attention.

For a moment, there was an invisible smell of gunpowder in the venue. Everyone knows that the Senate and military bosses are not here just to be spectators.

Soon the first candidate walked onto the stage at the signal of the speaker.

"Hello, colleagues, sir, and friends from the media! Before going up to this podium, many people were talking privately, saying that I was just a runner in this election. I was very angry about this! What are you talking about? What? Have you ever gotten to know me? What is this election? I also ran with you last time, okay..."

The first candidate's self-deprecating speech made everyone in the audience burst into laughter. For the Federation, speech is an important link that reflects a person's language charm and personal charm.

A politician who speaks well will often gain a lot of support for himself.

Time passed by, and in a blink of an eye, the fourth candidate finished his speech. At this moment, the only candidate seats left are Representative Effidel, who has the highest support rate within the party, and Chen Junyu, who has the highest public support rate.

A group of people from the Senate and the military looked at Chen Junyu from time to time, their eyes full of evil.

"Now, candidate Alfidli is invited to take the stage to give a speech."

Alfidli stood up and turned around to wave to his colleagues and the media in the venue. Amid the cheers of the crowd, the short old man straightened his back as much as possible.

He didn't go on stage, but said something that shocked everyone in front of everyone.

"I give up my candidacy!"

......

Not to mention other people, even the Senate and military bosses who came to observe were shocked by these words.

"what?"

"No mistake, right?"

"Congressman Effidri, are you sure you are not joking?"

Speaker Anna frowned and asked sharply.

Effidel nodded, looked at Chen Junyu aside and said:

"Six months ago, my good friend Phelan Holmes was attacked by the Winter Soldier and died. After hearing the news, my first goal was to become a state representative and use my greatest power to catch the murderer! It’s just that my wish was fulfilled by Mr. Chen Junyu not long ago, so I chose to withdraw from the candidacy and hope that my supporters can support this heroic detective instead!”

Chen Junyu looked at Effidel with some disbelief. This old man was different from any politician he had ever seen.

In the face of friendship, he can even give up the rights that are readily available to him and be willing to give them up. This state of mind and moral character are definitely rare in the world.

For a moment, there was warm applause in the venue, and even Speaker Anna and the governor stood up to applaud him. On the other hand, the faces of the Senate and the military were a little embarrassed.

Lieutenant General Harms even interrupted directly: "You have to give up the election just because of such a thing. In your eyes, is the position of a California legislator a commodity that can be transferred at will?"

Without waiting for Alfidli to answer, Speaker Anna picked up the gavel and knocked hard:

"Silence! Lieutenant General Harms, this is the California Assembly. There is no problem with Mr. Alfiedli's decision. Now let's invite the last candidate to speak on the stage."

Harms was speechless and could only sit there and stare.

Under the eyes of everyone, Chen Junyu walked to the stage step by step. Looking at the speech in his hand, he suddenly felt that it had no meaning at all.

Shila~

Amid the exclamations of the crowd, Chen Junyu tore the speech into pieces bit by bit, then took the microphone and started his impromptu speech:

"The three hours of waiting at the candidate seat made me feel uncomfortable. To be honest, I don't belong in this place, and I don't like this place. Before I became a super detective, my parents only wanted me to marry one of two people. A filial and gentle wife, and a few handsome and beautiful children. But my wish is even simpler: not to be fired by the director, not to be bullied by the hateful white detective, and to receive a salary of three thousand dollars a month. If If you're lucky, you can solve a few cases without being too dangerous, and then get promoted and get a raise."

Chen Junyu spoke in a calm and gentle voice. It's like chatting with friends over tea. But just such ordinary words without much passion or laughter made everyone at the scene listen extremely seriously.

Office workers squeezing into the subway, security guards standing guard under the scorching sun, detectives waiting in front of the police station TV, Tony sitting in the laboratory, Aisha standing in front of the interview car, Hawkeye lying on the hospital bed, Dubai Ni buried her head under the desk and secretly watched the live broadcast on her mobile phone with headphones, as well as Nick Fury, Shockwave Girl, Director Amy, who had been waiting for news...

They listened quietly to Chen Junyu's speech, as if he was telling the wishes of every ordinary person.

"I'm an ordinary person. I don't know anything about business, art, or politics. It wasn't until I unexpectedly gained my current abilities that my life began to change. The white detectives I was afraid of before were no longer so scary. The safety issue I was worried about was no longer an issue. After I tried my best to kill the mutant and therefore received a joint mandatory subpoena from the Senate and the military, I suddenly woke up.

My goal is no longer a salary of three thousand dollars, nor is it a dream of getting promoted and getting rich. It turns out that all I have always wanted is freedom and peace. "

At this point, Chen Junyu suddenly looked at several senior officials in the Senate and the military. The media's cameras also focused on a few people.

They did not expect that Chen Junyu would take the initiative to attack at this time. Harms, who had been dissatisfied for a long time, immediately retorted:

"Mr. Chen Junyu, are we depriving you of your freedom by asking you to attend the hearing?"

Chen Junyu reached into his pocket and took out the summons given to him by Nick Fury, and then pointed to the word 'force' in front of everyone:

"Is General Harms illiterate?"
