Chapter 1348: Out Of Control

The live broadcast was interrupted.

The public was in an uproar.

The citizens of Yokosuka, who still possessed a hint of friendliness to the UA military, almost smashed their phones in anger, and the signs that had been put aside were raised again. The police, who persuaded the citizens to stop moving forward, revealed mixed emotions and also wavered.

The indignant people shoved the police line as they shouted.

“Get out of Yokosuka!”

“Liar! Shameful liar!”

“I’m petitioning to Lift the security treaty!”

“Yokosuka is not a guinea pig, get out!”

Not only the gates of the Yokosuka military base, but demonstrators had started to converge in front of the gates of military bases in Yokota, Sasebo, and even Okinawa. With wooden signs held up high, they shouted protest slogans. While they responded to the people of Yokosuka, they shouted an easy to understand phrase to the soldiers in the military base—

“GET OUT!”

In the UA.

The man in front of the TV watched the news as he covered his head with both his hands in despair.

“T-virus…God, tell me this is not true.”

He could not believe that his country really tried this.

Originally, he still firmly believed that this must be a malicious campaign by Celestial Trade to smear the UA’s image. After all, it was not the first day that Future 1.0 criticized the UA. However, with the evidence in front of his eyes, it was impossible for him to close his eyes and ignore it.

In the comment section of major websites and forums, the keyboard warriors were already battling.

“Why does the CIB want to get T-virus data? Unbelievable, what do the politicians in the Capitol want to do?!”

“The United Nations should take over these servers immediately! No, that’s not right! They should be destroyed immediately!”

“I don’t agree with surrendering the servers. The T-virus can be used as a deterrent, as long as we are cautious enough not to really use them. It’s like a nuclear warhead in a silo…”

Both sides held their own opinions. One side believed that national interests were above all else and understood the CIB’s collection of T-virus data. The other side believed that humanitarianism was the priority. Regardless of the purposes, biological weapons should not be used for military purposes.

In a sense, the polarization of opinion also reflected the confusion of the UA people on whether they were leaning left or right. And this is the reason why Trump almost caught up in support of Kennedy in less than half a year.

Regardless of how polarized opinions were on the Internet, the people of California were obviously not satisfied with using the keyboard to express their political views. In particular, citizens of San Francisco and Los Angeles took to the streets and surrounded the state government and CIB buildings with slogans and protest signs.

Based on the information disclosed by Future 1.0, these servers were originally planned to be shipped back to Los Angeles. So, no matter how the UA authorities and the CIB planned to deal with these servers, the final destination, California, was a dangerous location.

Even as a fanatical zombie culture lover, no one really hoped to see the day where the walking dead really happened…


Different from the polarization of opinion in the UA, public opinion abroad was relatively more unified, almost overwhelmingly disappointed in the behavior of the UA.

Especially the Finnish people, who suffered because of the “Kurofune”, took a clear-cut stance against the UA this time. The Finnish Prime Minister even publicly condemned the CIB’s behavior, calling their action a crime against humanity…

In a mansion on the outskirts of Yoto, Sumitomo Kenichi stood in his study, with a phone in his hand, and casually chatted.

“Yes, father, I sent them.”

“My reason is very simple. The UA’s hegemony is fading, and now is not the time to be cautious! If we stand firmly on the side of Celestial Trade, they, as the winners, will definitely not forget the contributions we have made!”

“…This is not gambling on the future of the family. In my eyes, it is a win-win situation. I just sold the favor to our ally. The UA must withdraw from Nippon within two years. There is a high possibility that Celestial Trade will be the replacement!”

“As for my personal safety, it is nothing in the interests of the family!”

He did all he could to resist the urge to laugh as he made an awe-inspiring statement.

His father’s praise made him feel a little airy, especially when he heard that the old stubborn uncles in the family had gradually changed their views of his “young and vigorous” character. His heart was pumping so proudly that it was about to jump out of his chest.

After he hung up, he couldn’t restrain himself anymore and laughed hysterically.

“This is amazing! Amazing! So amazing!”

Out of all those who wished for the downfall of the UA, Sumitomo Kenichi was the most excited at this moment.

In the beginning, when Jiang Chen asked him to instigate the people to protest, deep down, he was reluctant. Not a single consortium dared to go against the UA before the CIB and the UA military left Nippon, let alone as the eldest son of the Sumitomo consortium.

In contrast, these Nippon financial groups would rather offend the prime minister of their own country than offend the commander-in-chief of the UA military in Nippon or the Chief of Staff of the CIB in Nippon. Because any actions of the former could not bypass the National Diet, while the latter could directly bypass National Diet and even all the rules and regulations…

Mitsui Hiroto was an example.

Hiroto was still the owner of a big consortium, Kenichi himself was just the eldest son of a consortium.

But even if he didn’t dare, he had no other choice at the time.

Because Jiang Chen was very clear, it was his only path to survive.

He had to bite the bullet.

After he bypassed the head of the Sumitomo Foundation, also his father, Sumitomo Kenichi directly used his influence on the civil rights organizations funded by the Sumitomo Foundation to organize protest activities at the military base.

After he had done all of this, he completely shut himself in the study of his private home while he waited nervously for the final result of this event.

From the time when the number of protesters exceeded 10,000, to when the UA made the odd decision to open up their military base, his uneasy heart pumped rapidly with every media report.

Especially half an hour ago, when he saw experts from three different countries all unable to find any evidence before the UA expert decided to try, Sumitomo Kenichi also drowned in the feeling of hopeless.

However, what he never expected was that the plot actually reversed at the last minute.

The UA was caught in the hands of its own people.

The dumbfounded information technology expert made him almost sing in joy. He immediately turned on his phone that was turned off and called his father who had been dialing.

Everything felt like a dream.

Until last night, he was still living under the death threat of the CIB.

However, he did not expect that in less than twenty-four hours, he was already amongst the winners…
