Chapter 39
At this time, Agent K seemed to be excited and kicked the trash can that was in the way away.
Juan was so impressed that he said: "Handsome! So handsome!"
After the song ended, Agent K sat back on his chair without changing his expression.
"Juan, there is a case that requires your cooperation in the investigation."
"But if you are given an order, don't dare to disobey it."
Juan originally thought that the Alliance Bureau of Investigation was looking for him because it had received a report.
There was probably something wrong with the video posted by the humanoid in his name.
But what Detective K said next made Juan realize that he might really be involved in a major case this time.
"For the purpose of investigating the case, I will tell you some internal news."
Juan immediately waved his hand to tell all the humanoid creatures on the rooftop to leave.
But those two-headed demons were dancing so high that they couldn't stop.
Even if the elven supervisor Ella scolds them, they can't calm down.
Juan couldn't wait any longer.
He immediately ran down the stairs, found the nearest toilet and got in.
After closing the cubicle door, Juan sat on the ceramic toilet and released the anti-gravity camera, letting it float in the air so that Agent K could see that he was in a quiet environment.
Agent K seemed very satisfied with Juan's self-awareness, and he continued:
“Currently, there is a trend of ‘plants winning’ that is popular in society. A small group of people affected by this trend believe that participating in the presidential election is meaningless.
"They think that no matter how they choose, they won't be able to elect a president they are satisfied with. They might as well just lie down and be a plant at home. They think that they can 'win by lying down'!"
What kind of evil is this? Isn’t it true?
But Juan did not interrupt to express this idea.
“This idea is wrong! It is anti-democratic!
“Participating in the presidential election is a citizen’s right and obligation!
"Every citizen should cast a sacred vote for the candidates on the candidate list at the polling station.
"This is democracy!"
Juan doesn't think so. He believes that abstaining from voting is also a citizen's right. Especially when the candidate list is completely manipulated by certain political parties, abstaining from voting is the real democracy.
But Juan just thought in his heart and did not say it out loud.
"Maybe you think, what does this mean?
"But I'm telling you, this is a pretty dangerous idea, especially in a presidential election year.
"You know, every election year, the government has to do a lot of work in order to get voters to go to the polling stations to vote.
“Including but not limited to: asking teachers to assign tasks to parents; urging companies to issue quotas to employees; and setting permissions on some public facilities that only those who have voted can use them.
"But even so, popular turnout is still gradually declining.
"Following this trend, experts estimate that this year's turnout may hit a record low.
"This is a dangerous sign!
“When the number of people participating in an election decreases to a certain level, the fairness of the election no longer exists.
"As the most direct manifestation of democracy, if the fairness of elections is questioned, then the foundation of the human alliance, democracy, will also be shaken.
"Now, do you understand how bad this thing is?"
But Juan feels that the current presidential election has fundamentally lost its fairness.
I have never seen anyone who is loved by the people make it to the candidate list. There are only people who are loved by the top leaders of the Conservative Party and the Falang Party.
The only choice voters can make is to choose one of the two annoying people who is not too annoying.
This choice is often difficult, as disgusting as choosing which maggot is fatter in a manure pit.
As a result, more and more people were willing to sell their votes, and gradually it even became an open business.
There is no fairness in such a blatant presidential election. It is more like a show.
As for democracy, it will not be shaken by this, because it no longer exists.
Juan, whose heart had not yet completely cooled down, tried his best to keep his face calm, and said solemnly:
"Yes, the nature of this matter is very bad and must be stopped."
"It's good that you have such an awareness. In fact, we think so too and have taken action.
"After our Alliance Investigation Bureau's full investigation of various planets, we found that there are nearly 150,000 supporters of the 'plants lying down theory' who have done the same thing."
Juan said without thinking: "Then the truth of the matter is already very clear. It must be this incident that gave these people the idea of lying down and becoming plants."
"I thought so too, so I came to you to investigate."
Juan suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
But Agent K was the first to reveal the answer: "These 150,000 people have watched your live broadcast - "The Legendary Terminator who proves the truth with his own life"."
In Huan's mind, a colander with 150,000 holes appeared inexplicably, as well as the will of the World Tree that was supposed to destroy his personal consciousness, but eventually dissipated in the vast starry sky.
Juan felt guilty and his tone was a little panicked:
"This, this must be some misunderstanding. I, I only found out today that there is such an evil trend as the 'plants win by lying down' theory.
"And as you, the leader, have seen, I am quite active, and I can also dance on horseback.
"Of course, you can't dance well without a leader.
"But at least I'm jumping around all the time. No matter how you look at it, I don't look like a plant, right?"
"Don't deny it in a hurry. Everything must be based on facts. Now let me see, "The Legendary Terminator Who Proven the Tao with His Own Body", this live video, what exactly..."
Agent K was speaking while operating the video playback device.
"r...o...o...m..."
A strange sound suddenly came from the window.
Agent K was hurriedly operating, but the sound continued stubbornly and became more and more intense.
"rroooom~"
Finally, Agent K directly turned off the power of the playback device.
The strange sound disappeared.
"Ahem," Agent K's paralyzed face seemed to have a trace of blood, "There is a technical problem."
Then he returned to normal: "Actually, I don't have to watch your live video, because I think there may be a mistake in the investigation direction of the Alliance Investigation Bureau."
Juan sighed secretly: "What a wise leader!"
Then Juan induced: "I guess there must be some link, for example, a lower-level agent who can't dance and only flatters, made a mistake during the investigation and passed on the wrong information.
"As a result, upper-level leaders were misled by wrong intelligence and drew less accurate conclusions."
"Well, it is indeed possible. I will ask the lower-level agents to reorganize the collected intelligence to see what went wrong."
The window in front of Juan disappeared without warning.
A feeling of powerless exhaustion surged into Juan's heart, leaving him sitting on the ceramic toilet unable to get up for a while.
Juan thought, although the special government line provided by Soma does not cost money, it is still not safe enough. Otherwise, why would he have to suffer such a crime?
At this time, the window popped up again without warning.
