Chapter 470: 213 third-level wanted notice_2
Godoy glanced down for a few moments and couldn’t help but frown in amazement, "Wow, they actually! This!"
"What happened?" Yang Ming asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Although the White Ghost acted a bit extreme, he didn’t do anything wrong. The laws of the Empire state that as long as one is a citizen, they have the right to report corrupt officials."
"What?"
Godoy continued, "The authorities have officially issued a third-level wanted order for the White Ghost."
"Wanted for the White Ghost?" Yang Ming couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment, then he laughed wryly, "These government officials really have no shame."
Yang Ming emerged from his bunk and came beside Godoy to carefully read the news content.
Indeed, it was a third-level wanted order.
There were five levels to the Empire’s wanted orders; the third level marked the start of a full Star Domain pursuit. If the wanted target strongly resisted, direct lethal force and other compulsory measures could be taken.
Although the news repeatedly emphasized that this was meant to force the White Ghost into negotiating cooperation with the authorities,
the message boards of various regional and news websites of the Empire began to flood with voices condemning the bureaucratic class of the Empire.
Many have already started cursing the Empire’s backward and corrupt system.
Godoy was visibly angered too, having typed out hundreds of words of ’advice’ in the input box, only to hover in indecisiveness before finally choosing to delete it.
He didn’t want to cause trouble for his family.
Godoy said in a low voice, "This might provoke public outrage; White Ghost is a popular hero, that’s a recognized fact! On Zubin Star, people have already erected hundreds of statues of him, and it’s said that using his photo can ward off pests... What idiotic minister signed this wanted order! Aren’t they afraid of giving the New Federation CIA an opportunity?"
Yang Ming stood quietly to the side and said softly, "Father, I’m going back to rest."
"Oh, are you alright, Hui?"
"I’m fine, just really disappointed in the authorities. You know, I wanted to venture into politics, but politics are always shrouded in darkness."
"Maybe we can think of a way to support the White Ghost," Godoy carefully suggested. "For example... how about we all buy clothes with cartoon images of White Ghost on them?"
"Sounds great, remember to buy genuine ones."
Yang Ming closed the hatch and lay in the weightless environment, gradually falling into thought.
A comprehensive manhunt?
This seemed like the White Ghost had completely positioned himself against the Empire’s authorities, but in reality, it would further deepen his victim image.
This was actually pretty good news.
Yang Ming tapped his fingers lightly on the frame, and lines of fast-scrolling data appeared on his glasses.
He sent Lyu a counterattack order.
Report in advance, triple the information, and indict three local magnates all at once half an hour later. Release a notice about the upcoming exposé on the corrupt tycoons within the Emperor Star Circle, scheduling it for a week later.
No one understood extreme pressure better than he did.
...
Yaha Star was a Super Administrative Star with a lush green appearance.
What is called a Super Administrative Star has exceeded the Empire’s average in aspects like population, culture, military, and economy.
For instance, the tourism value alone of Yaha Star surpassed the total output of the remote Saka Star, and tourism didn’t even rank in the top ten of Yaha Star’s economy.
Here, there were mega-cities that filled the entire alluvial plain, and six giant Planet Rings surrounded the planetary periphery. Its only natural satellite had been transformed into a steel fortress, acting as a military stronghold guarding the door to the Emperor Star.
The functions of the six elliptical Planet Rings were incredibly complex.
Three auxiliary rings controlled the surface climate and provided nearly unlimited energy to the surface; the three main rings were filled with tens of thousands of factories and cities with populations above a million.
Inside one of the Planet Rings, a semi-solidified particle collider was built, though its specific layout remained classified.
As the spaceship carrying Yang Ming and Godoy slowly approached the Space Port, a Poisoned Stinger Ship appeared above, matching the ship’s pace.
On the bridge of the Poisoned Stinger Ship,
Bryant’s slender and enchanting body was soaking in a warm bath, the white gauze dress clinging tightly to milk-like skin, as those eyes flickered with a gentle light.
Several youths dressed in long white gowns quietly waited on the side, holding spices and tea.
He was in a video conference but had not turned on his camera.
At this moment, Bryant watched with a smile, at the other end of the meeting, an elder from the Elder Court, a white-haired "upper" elder, was ranting furiously.
"This White Ghost is utterly lawless! He holds no regard for His Majesty! He should be torn to pieces!"
Bryant lightly clicked his tongue.
White Ghost, oh right, it should be Captain Hanton; he had far too much nerve.
Bryant had closely watched the network’s war of public opinion that unfolded half a day ago.
White Ghost had made a whistleblowing alert, pointing out their Supermodified people’s previous actions, admitting one of his "bases" had been discovered.
Then the Empire officially issued a wanted notice, trying to brand White Ghost as a wanted criminal.
Public furor ensued.
It was an exceedingly rare sight in Bryant’s memory.
Unlike the average internet users, Bryant had access to more intelligence, allowing him to feel the intense conflicts among the Empire’s high-ranking interest groups triggered by White Ghost’s sudden emergence.
The Imperial Military covertly supported White Ghost, but dared not act. They simply felt that White Ghost’s style aligned perfectly with their taste.
That is, to pursue personal heroism.
The bureaucrats of the Empire feared the White Ghost because most of the officials were dirty, terrified of becoming White Ghost’s target.
It was the Imperial Elder Council that truly waved the anti-White Ghost flag,
and this ludicrous wanted order was the ’result’ of a few influential elders loudly advocating in a high-level meeting.
Of course, Bryant also had to publicly condemn White Ghost.
After all, the Supermodified people and the majority of the transformed people army within the Emperor Star Circle were under the leadership of the Elder Council.
"Uninteresting."
Bryant glanced at the corner’s clock, slid his fingers through the water, and the projection before him switched to a bustling corner of the Space Port.
He felt his anticipation deepen.
Soon, the young man he awaited would walk through the passage below into the crowd, re-entering his sight.
Bryant was unsure why he felt this way.
He had many "family members," but never had there been a being who could make him so eager, so longing, before even establishing a "family contract."
Hui surely would bring endless joy to his paradise, Bryant was so assured.
"Here he comes."
Bryant murmured, eyes unblinking as he watched the slightly crowded crowd.
Hui Saka and Viscount Godoy Saka appeared in the passage, each pulling their floating luggage, chatting and looking out.
Bryant’s smile grew more pronounced, as if he heard the father and son’s conversation, mentioning how crowded it was here.
Bryant’s smile suddenly froze, quickly swiping the projection screen in front of him, sitting up from the water.
Seven or eight men and women wearing airport security uniforms converged from three directions toward where Hui and his father were.
Bryant’s two subordinates had not yet caught up, and the welcoming squad deployed outside was still waiting in the parking lot for orders.
The group of men and women surrounded Hui and his father, raising electric shock guns, causing immediate commotion among the surrounding crowd.
Hui and his father clearly hesitated, uniformly raising their hands and seemingly shouting something.
The female officer standing in front of Hui slowly raised her head, revealing a beautiful face.
A Supermodified person, codename Yayu!
Hui’s expression was full of astonishment.
Inside the Poisoned Stinger Ship, witnessing this scene, Bryant’s face turned grim, his nails almost dug into his flesh, his body slowly drifting off the water, while golden flames burned fiercely in his eyes.
"Asking for death!"
