Brand Master [Comprehensive Yingmei]

Admiral Joe Campbell had rows upon rows of medals on his chest.

He has participated in many overseas battles and is known as a "warrior" within the US military. He has a very high reputation and is admired by everyone.

Elizabeth's direct commander, Vazquez, was a student picked up by General Campbell. He was loyal and respectful to General Campbell.

Because of this, under the instruction of his mentor, Vazquez deliberately covered up Elizabeth's case, made vague remarks to Zhenglian, and never reported it for trial, and did not file charges against the murderer.

Apparently, he also believed that Mr. Campbell was right in protecting the honor of the army. Judging from his speech, he seemed to be very sympathetic to General Campbell's "sacrifice" and extremely moved.

On the second day after Vera recovered, the members of Zhenglian, who were so busy working on the case, finally found time to return to Washington to visit the sick.

When they came to the recovery room ward, the song "SheBeganToLie" was playing back and forth in the room.

The immature and clean female voice sang the metaphorical and extremely sad lyrics as if singing a nursery rhyme, and Barry, Hal and others immediately choked back their concern and worries.

Several men looked at each other and left Diana in the ward. They all found excuses to leave the ward temporarily and ran to the corridor to make room for the two girls.

When finally only Diana and Vera were left in the ward, Diana, who had been unusually silent since coming here, finally spoke her first words.

"I'm very sorry."

Diana said.

She frowned, with a look of solemnity and fatigue between her brows and eyes.

Obviously, in the past few days, after going through emotional stages such as contradictions, forbearance, and outbursts, and being wronged, made things difficult, and suppressed, Diana's mood is very low.

This depression is not just because his sudden outburst caused Zhenglian and Vera trouble, but because he watched the victim imprisoned while the real culprit was at large.

Humans are so weird.

thought Diana.

"The 'rules' of the human world are strange."

In front of Vera, Diana finally revealed the doubts that had been buried in her heart, "I think the 'rules' of human society are contradictory."

They say men and women are equal, but they hate women who are stronger than men.

They say that the authority of the army is supreme, but it is they themselves who are doing damage to the reputation and authority of the army.

They say that laws are used to protect human rights, but victims of violations have nowhere to complain.

"I don't know."

In Diana's resolute and resolute blue eyes, perplexed and perplexed.

"It is obviously a problem that can be solved instantly with a mantra lasso, why must it evolve into such a complicated problem?"

Vera glanced at the divine weapon hanging on Diana's waist. The long lasso flowing with golden luster was slightly dim at the moment, as if it had cast a shadow.

She paused and said softly:

"Because people don't want to believe in the lasso of mantra."

"I can prove it."

Diana was even more puzzled.

"It's because you have the confidence to prove it that they don't want to believe it."

As Diana said, people stick to the rules that contradict each other, the world is woven with countless lies, and everyone is making lies.

Once the golden whip that symbolizes the truth tears the world apart, in order to maintain the world, the only way the panic-stricken people can think of is to turn the truth into a lie.

Turn the lasso of absolute truth into a lie, and the world woven by the lies becomes the truth.

Vera spoke vaguely.

Diana also half understood.

On the contrary, the men who were standing in the corridor outside the door, pretending to be chatting but listening to what was going on inside, looked complicated and could not refute.

If they had considered borrowing Diana's mantra lasso before, all the thoughts in their hearts were dispelled after hearing Vera's words.

However, if we start from this theory, the military honor that Joe Campbell upholds is not without flaws.

Superman standing outside the corridor glanced at Vera in the room and narrowed his eyes.

He thought, he caught that "weakness".

……

……

For a whole week, people across the United States have not put down the melons in their hands.

In the first three days, they were still discussing the inexplicable conflict between Zhenglian and the army, and they never returned on the road of supporting Zhenglian and stepping on the military. As a result, two days later, they ushered in a bigger battle. The melon:

——A female soldier serving in the Coast Guard was revealed to have disappeared for no reason four months ago, and her whereabouts are still unknown.

If the previous conflict between Zhenglian and the army can be regarded as topical news, then the news of the disappearance of female soldiers in the army is a complete scandal.

"Female soldier Carita Jones is from Arizona. She just turned 20 this year. Her family and friends told us that Carita Jones is an optimistic, kind and cheerful girl."

"Four months ago, Carita was on duty at sea with the army. Like all recruits, her tasks were ordinary cleaning work and a liaison officer, but in such an extremely ordinary operation, Carita was like this disappeared."

——She just disappeared.

This huge headline appeared on the headlines of many newspapers. The "Washington Herald", which was the first to report the matter, even spent two full boards reporting the matter.

In the report, the author not only investigated the events before and after Carita's disappearance, but also directly pointed out the inaction of the girl's army:

"However, in the face of Caritan's disappearance, the local military department didn't care. They did not launch the military investigation team as usual, but turned a blind eye to it. He hadn't heard from her daughter for days and was forced to call the Coast Guard, only to learn that Carritan was missing."

"'Their (military) attitude is a joke,' Karitan's father charged angrily in an interview.

'They actually told us they didn't find out about Caritan's disappearance until after we called!

What's even more ridiculous is that when we asked to access the surveillance video at that time, they actually replied to us: In order to ensure the privacy of female soldiers, they did not install surveillance in Karitan's dormitory! '"

Simply ridiculous.

The U.S. military has always been proud of the modern management within the military, but now faced with the disappearance of a large living person, the Coast Guard is ashamed to say that it only found out about it a few days after the end of the duty mission.

What's even more absurd is that Carita's father clearly wanted the surveillance video of Carita while on duty, and the Coast Guard had the nerve to use "female soldier's right to privacy" to prevaricate the poor old man - known as the world's most advanced There is no monitoring installed inside the fleet, how about fooling fools?

Almost without exception, everyone was thoroughly irritated.

In the past, everyone was very dissatisfied with the military's arrogant attitude towards Zhenglian, especially the fans of Chaoying who basically scolded the military for three meals. The scolding and criticism of the military is simply overwhelming.

On the major social networking sites, the first hot topic on the homepage is #她就是进入#.

Under this topic, countless people have participated in the discussion, and the attitudes of all female users and most male users are surprisingly consistent:

——What we need is an explanation from the military and a responsible investigation instead of shirking responsibility, please give the truth!

— to protect America?forget it!You can't even protect your own recruits.

——#Give Kalitan back to us#

Countless people are protesting, leaving aside social networking sites, major video sites and forums are discussing this matter.

When the matter really came into the public eye, it was extremely difficult to hide anything.

Just as Zhenglian forum users knew that Chaoying was stolen and they volunteered to investigate, facing the sudden disappearance of Carita, countless enthusiastic people voluntarily participated in the investigation, and quickly found several suspicious clues.

Based on these clues, everyone talked a lot and came up with various conspiracy theories.

Some people speculated that "Karitan broke through some kind of conspiracy within the military and was silenced", and some people speculated that "Karitan was arranged to perform some secret mission and unfortunately died", and some even swore that "the military is working Use recruits like Caritan to do some sort of biochemical experiment."

The more people guessed the more outrageous, the rumors grew bigger and bigger, and the military's already bad reputation became more and more stinky. Many people in Arizona have taken to the streets to protest because of this, demanding that the military return Carita.

Logically speaking, such public opinion protests cannot affect the military, because of the military's unique judicial system, such public opinion protests really cannot influence any resolutions.

But the bad thing is that with the outbreak of the "Caritan" incident, many other cases related to the "Caritan" incident began to emerge one after another across the United States.

In Tennessee, it was revealed that a family suffered the same thing as the Carritan family. The youngest daughter of their family joined the army five years ago, but disappeared for no reason while on duty. For five years, the military did not give them any answer.

A soldier in Texas, who did not want to be named, said: Inside the army, there are countless cases of such disappearances every year. The military's internal control is not strict, and even the evacuation is disorderly.

...Nevada, Virginia, and even Wyoming, there were several similar "disappearance cases". Before everyone woke up and became furious, a veteran female soldier from Pennsylvania bravely stood up and exposed the more terrifying the truth.

She said: These female soldiers judged to be "missing" by the military are likely to have been violated by members of the same army.

It's not just Elizabeth, it's not just West Point.

Compared to Elizabeth, there are more female soldiers who have experienced the same thing during their service in the army, but they are not as lucky as Elizabeth. When they were tortured, there was no powerful superhero to save them.

In this way, they disappeared into the torrent of the army without a sound, and became a cold number on the disappearance file.

In fact, within the entire US military, there are countless such "missing cases of female soldiers" every year, but due to the secrecy and trial mechanism within the military, these cases have never erupted.

Even if the families of these "missing female soldiers" have been persistently pursuing the truth, all they can do is to keep urging the military to investigate and judge, and there is no other way.

The power of control and interpretation has always been in the hands of the military.

What Bruce and Cyborg have done is to use special means to find out these "disappearance" cases over the years one by one, organize the only evidence and doubts in these cases into a book, and send them anonymously to various experts. media.

The more clues revealed, the closer to the truth. When this brave female soldier finally told the truth to the media, the shock of public opinion was comparable to a tsunami.

Again and again, the arrogance of the army was seen from the Zhenglian side, the incompetence of the army was seen from the disappearance of Karitan, and when this incident was exposed, the public was outraged.

They never expected that the army, which has been actively promoting "gender equality" and encouraging women to join the army, has such a bad smell. Not only does it have no respect for female soldiers, it even acquiesces in the occurrence of this behavior. Don't care about the suffering!

"The most terrifying place is the army, what about the next sentence? - The most terrifying profession is the female soldier."

"I take back that joke, the military is more than liars, bastards, bastards? The entire US military is a bunch of [shit emoticons], I fucking type the word 'US military' now and feel like my own phone is dirty! "

"Can I say my sister is going to join the army this year? Now she has changed her mind, and our whole family has changed her mind! Whoever wants to go will go! Anyway, I will never let my sister become a 'missing person' too one!"

"Hand over all the bastards who committed the crime! Set up a military investigation team! We demand a frank truth!"

Covering several classes, gathering countless women's angry demonstrations, it started to ignite step by step from Arizona, and finally reached the gate of the White House.

——This is a last resort.

If you want to warn the military, give justice to these girls, and bring the perpetrators who violated Elizabeth to justice, you don't rely on superheroes, let alone the demonstrators, but President Walker.

According to the Constitution, the President of the United States is the supreme commander of the U.S. Armed Forces and can supervise and supervise the trial of military courts-as long as Walker pays attention, this case can definitely be heard normally.

And as long as the trial is fair, the evidence from Batman's previous investigation is enough to send these murderers to prison.

... The key is whether Walker is willing to pay attention to this issue.

"With the investigative capabilities of Walker's staff, it is not difficult to find that the generation of these public opinions comes from the promotion of Zhenglian."

When he came in front of Vera again, Clark's expression was no longer the dignified and anxious before, and he obviously calmed down a lot.

He even had the mood to laugh at himself:

"And once we find out that our goal is to clear up Diana's grievances and appeal for Elizabeth - there is a high probability that he will not participate in this matter and let the military fall out with us."

After reading the information given by Clark, Vera asked calmly, "...so?"

Looking at Clark Kent's appearance, the Justice League must have another trick.

"So..."

Clark tilted his head, hooked the corner of his mouth quickly, and said a little cunningly:

"So, Batman and I openly went to Captain America in your name and asked him to come forward and speak for these innocent female soldiers."

Joe Campbell's arrogance in the military department is inseparable from his own great prestige. He can give up his own daughter for the sake of the military's reputation. bonus.

However, no matter how good his reputation is, no matter how high his reputation is—what is he in front of Captain America?

If you are not in this world or in the United States, you will never know how much the people of this country admire and admire Captain America.

Especially within the U.S. military—the original intention of these generations of soldiers is to follow Captain America.

For the soldiers, the worship and admiration for Captain America goes deep into the bone marrow and soul.

Once Steve Rogers really revealed his true identity and came forward to demand a thorough investigation of the matter, without Walker's involvement, the entire US military would immediately rebel and scramble to support Captain America.

What?Joe Campbell?Vazquez?

Anyone who is against the captain is not worthy of being called a soldier!

Hearing this, Vera couldn't help but smile a little, and asked with a smile in her eyes:

"Then? You got Steve's support?"

"The captain is a good man with integrity, of course he is willing to take on the identity of Captain America again for this."

Clark smiled.

"It's just that after we conveyed the news to Vasque through Trevor—not long after, the Walker government found Carritan's family, not only held a press conference for them, but also personally urged the trial of the case, demanding The army has reopened all previous disappearance cases."

Vera laughed out loud.

She sat on the hospital bed, lowered her head, covered her mouth, curled up with a smile, and even her shoulders were trembling slightly.

Accompanied by her movements, the short wheat-colored hair swayed constantly, and the raised dull hair on the top of the head swayed back and forth, which was extremely cute.

This move is really clever by leveraging strength and attacking east and west.

The fact that Captain America is willing to come forward has the greatest impact not on the military, but on the Walker government itself.

As soon as Steve came out, his identity was exposed, and he came here to avenge the female soldiers, his reputation among the people would only increase to an extremely terrifying level.

Such a person, who was originally an idol of the entire army, has now become an idol of the whole people after such a toss, and even faintly became the leader of the country that people aspire to. Will Walker's position still be secure?

Upon receiving this news, Walker would be a big fool if he let Steve step forward because of his personal enmity with Zhenglian.

He was jumping up and down in anxiety, suffering from mouth ulcers, and he wanted to speak for Carita and all the missing female soldiers before Zhenglian and Captain America, so that he could win people's hearts and prevent Captain America from making a move.

In this way, with Walker coming forward, Captain America doesn’t need to reveal his identity, life is still peaceful, Wonder Woman can clear up his grievances from the side, Zhenglian is completely picked out, and all the disappearance cases and Elizabeth cases in the army can be cleared.

From the public opinion battlefield to the political battlefield, one link after another, and finally use the things that both parties care about most to check and balance... I have to say that the man in front of me has really learned Vera's methods ten to ten.

Clark quietly looked at Vera, who was laughing into a ball, and his uneasy heart finally completely relaxed.

He asked softly and with a little expectation:

"So... I didn't disappoint you, did I?"

"It should be said... completely exceeded my expectations?"

Vera finally finished laughing, she raised her head again, her eyes were still a little moist, she raised her eyebrows, and asked with a smile:

"But, in this plan, besides you and Steve, Joe Campbell himself can escape unscathed?"

Elizabeth is still in a coma, and Joe Campbell can argue that he was blinded and unable to convict him.

What's more, although Zhenglian's method is very sophisticated, it still cannot bypass the original military court. According to the original rules, the time for the military court to reiterate these cases will definitely be extremely long and the efficiency will be extremely low.

...So, what should we do in the face of such a situation?

"..."

Clark was speechless.

Originally, he wanted to laugh when he heard Vera's praise, but he had no choice but to hear the latter sentence.

As Vera said, they are currently... really unable to solve Campbell, and even if Walker intervenes in the supervision, due to the process mechanism, the trial process will be very slow.

"I can only continue to follow up."

Clark sighed.

Vera shook her head.

She looked deeply at Clark, and for a moment, she was relieved that the cub she raised had not lost her heart, and felt a little distressed and funny.

After the complicated mood changes, Vera couldn't hold back, and reached out to pat the shoulder of the big boy in front of her.

"It doesn't take that much trouble."

Vera chuckled and spoke slowly.

"It's enough for you to do this. The one who can deal with a shameless bastard can only be a more despicable and shameless bastard than him."

After all, Vera, who had been recuperating for a week, got off the hospital bed.

While ordering Mary to make a phone call, she straightened her messy hair and said to the still ignorant Clark:

"Take me to the White House, boy."

"Go, find Walker??"

"Do not."

Vera pushed back her messy hair, exposing her smooth forehead, and smiled vigorously at the man.

"Go to my good teacher-Francis to talk about the old days."
