Chapter 500: There’s Stuff! There’s Really Stuff!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Actually, one couldn’t blame Itra for using peeing as an excuse to escape. The situation outside the Hexagon Building was really horrifying now.

Numerous Merikans had blocked the entrances to the building. Their hands had signboards held high and were protesting. The signboards wrote things such as “All the military people go and die,””You bunch of pig-heads,””Merika has lost all of its face,” and such. The meaning was obvious. These bunch of useless people not only lied to them but also threw their face to the entire world. Please go and die to atone for your sins!

They were very agitated and held the signboards protesting while the reporters carried their equipment, waiting to interview the key personals of the military regarding this matter. After all, the Iron Warrior was so popular previously, now that it was exposed, this would definitely make the headlines!

“Chief Salon!” The secretary anxiously rushed in again and said, “The reporters outside are requesting for an interview, they have already blocked out this place! We have already mobilized the security guards, but...”

“This is really a headache.” Salon violently rubbed his temples. “We hyped the Iron Warrior too much previously. Now that it’s exposed, we have really lost our face. These reporters are really too much as well. They just want to create chaos, they should really be captured and shot! They should be shot!”

Of course, there was a very big difference between reality and dreaming. Salon felt very helpless, too.

“But, Chief Salon, what should we do now?” The secretary’s forehead was full of sweat and nervously said, “If we don’t think of something, they will be charging in soon! By that time, we won’t be able to leave even if we want to!”

“Fuck!” Salon scolded. “Couldn’t this Hong Dali just stay at home honestly? And this Angel of Misfortune, isn’t this dude’s curses always very accurate? Why did it have no effect this time!?”

“Sa... Chief Salon...” The secretary violently swallowed his saliva. “The Angel of Misfortune said... Said... Said that all of the military personals are pig-heads and asked them to go eat... Eat shit...”

“I will eat his head!” Salon loudly roared. “I’m not going to be in his curse anymore! Merika has taken care of him so long for nothing, we have given him such a high salary! But the result? He didn’t have any use at al! Not a single bit of use! He said that we are pig-heads and asked us to go eat shit, why doesn’t he go and die! The Angel of Misfortune! My ass! He should be captured and shot! He must be shot!”

“Chief Salon, the reporters outside...” The secretary received a phone call and nervously reminded him. “You should think of something to deal with the reporters first, they are going to charge in!”

Hearing the secretary’s reminding, the continuously roaring Salon went completely silent.

This thing came too quickly and too rushed. Actually, even if the video was exposed to be fake, it was not a big deal. Hollywood movies always had a lot of see-through shots. Even if they were discovered by the audiences, it would just be a bit of a laugh, that’s all.

Regarding the matter of the Iron Warrior, Salon never expected to hide it forever. His original intention was just to stall until the influence caused by Hong Dali’s Mechanical Man died down. The people tended to be attracted to something new and then move on to something else after some time if nothing else attracted their attention. In that way, the debate about the Mechanical Man would be totally suppressed.

Therefore, once they last through the starting part where people’s enthusiasm was the highest, Salon would inform the video-sharing websites to lock down the news and videos. Once people’s enthusiasm waned, things would be easy to handle. As for exchanging the Mechanical Man’s technology with Heavenly State, that could be slowly discussed.

But no one expected that their video was only up for two days! It was only two days and some damned fellow exposed it!

Now, they were really in trouble. The people’s attention was already focused on the Iron Warrior. Now, even more attention was focused on it. Even if Salon wanted to lock down the news, it wasn’t possible...

It was akin to A hearing B saying that he bought a new car for 200,000.

A got jealous and directly borrowed a 300,000 worth vehicle to take pictures of himself in it and told people that 200,000 cars weren’t anything, he had a 300,000 worth one.

This kind of mentality was very normal. It was easy for humans to have a comparing heart, so it was nothing much.

But the problem was that this picture had a major flaw in it. An obvious mark on the car was taken into the photograph and was noticed by B. “Are you sure? Isn’t this car XXX’s? I have seen that mark on that spot before!”

Alright, things were interesting now. This was totally a slap in the face. Not only was the slap a sound one, but the most crucial thing was also that A had no chance to refute at all. This would cause A to feel really miserable...

If not, why was it said that Hong Dali never slapped someone’s face? Because he really didn’t—someone else would do it for him...

“Damn... Damn it! Damn it!” Salon angrily kicked the tea table over. “This bunch of pig-heads, they really deserve to die! Capture all of them and shoot them!” Of course, putting the matter of shooting them aside, he still had to think of a way to chase them away. Therefore, Salon pressed his stomach and said, “Help me to deal with the reporters first, I have stomach pain. I need to use the washroom first!”

“Ah? Chief Salon? Chief Salon!?” Seeing Salon anxiously rushing into the washroom, the secretary was a bit stunned.

Luckily, not very long later, he didn’t have the time to be stunned anymore—a large group of reporters, as much as a 100 plus of them, barged in...

“May I ask if Chief Itra is here? Regarding the fake video of the Iron Warrior, what is Chief Itra’s view on that?”

“Regarding the fact that the Iron Warrior is fake, did Chief Itra want to mislead the people to achieve a certain purpose?

“Hello, is...”

The entire scene was in a mess, and the secretary couldn’t handle it at all. Lastly, someone smart enough used a loudspeaker to shout, “Everyone, quiet down first. I have seen this person before, he is Chief Itra’s secretary. Let’s hear what he has to say first.”

The place quietened down very quickly.

The secretary gulped down a mouthful of saliva. The scene today was really quite big... One had to admit that his brain worked quite fast. Since this was a big scene, he might as well exaggerate things. “Regarding the video about the Iron Warrior, I don’t know about it. I’m not sure what the situation is, too. However...” As he spoke up to this point, he tried hard to remember the things that Salon and Itra talked about and said, “Because Heavenly State is unwillingly to share their technology on the Mechanical Man, we have to punish them a bit. A lot of rare metals that Heavenly State needs are imported from us. Therefore, we need to block their import channels to contain them in...”

Block the Heavenly State’s import channels for rare metals, this was big news!

At this moment, the secretary continued: “Also, Chief Itra has decided to conduct a military exercise, but the specific date hasn’t been decided yet. What I can reveal is that this time for the military exercise, we will use a lot of the most advanced weapons in the world, including railguns, the latest fighter jets, and so on. Please look forward to it.”

Puff... I have finally dealt with them, this two news should be big enough. Also, when Chief Itra and Chief Salon were discussing matters previously they seemed to have mentioned these, too. I shan’t care so much now, I just need to last through this first. As for the rest... that isn’t my concern!

Secretary: “Everyone, please excuse me. My stomach is a bit painful, I need to use the washroom first.”

...

In Merika, the competition in all the sectors was very large, including the media sector.

Being one of the best reporters for the “Merika Military Newspaper,” Jeanswest had always looked down on his fellow reporters—what kind of good news would they be able to get by blocking the door? The main person that they wanted to interview was probably in hiding, all they could get was just some easily obtainable news.

Being someone who had been the company’s ace for 20 plus years, Jeanswest naturally didn’t go by the normal path.

When he discovered the video exposing Iron Warrior, just less than three hours later he had already used his fastest speed and used his connections to sneak into the Hexagon Building’s washroom. He installed the latest pinhole camera here because he believed that Defense Minister Itra would definitely be in a headache when he learned that Iron Warrior was exposed. By then, hiding in the washroom would be a very good choice.

The fact proved that his choice was very accurate. Just another three hours plus later, Jeanswest saw Defense Minister Itra rushing into the washroom angrily.

“Haha, as expected, he’s caught by me right where I expected!” Hiding in the ceiling, Jeanswest’s face was full of delight. “This time, I will definitely get a piece of big news!”

As expected, once Itra entered the washroom, he starting kicking furiously at the everything in it. “Hong Dali! This damned Hong Dali! Why, why must he go against us. Why!”

There’s stuff! There’s indeed good stuff! Hahaha, I have really come here correctly today!

At this moment, he saw Itra angrily entering a private cubicle, preparing to pee. This part was of no value, but Jeanswest felt that he should still observe for a bit longer. The facts proved that his intuition was quite accurate—just a short while later, another person sneaked in. Jeanswest recognized him, the Chief of the National Security Bureau, Salon!

Hahaha, looks like I will have a big reward today!

Jeanswest was extremely excited. This was the crucial part, no one would be willing to leave and miss this, right?

Then, he heard Salon pee and scold at the same time. “Damn this Hong Dali, causing such a big problem for me, he should really be pulled out and shot! Shot!” Itra’s voice then sounded from the cubicle. “You are here, too? We better stay here for a while. Those damned reporters outside are as annoying as flies! Annoying!”

He actually dared to compare reporters to flies!This can’t be tolerated! Jeanswest secretly decided to post what he captured on camera today on the Internet! He just had to see what they would be talking about now!

Then, the sound of water gushing sounded—probably Itra finishing his business. But unexpectedly, Itra quickly scolded. “AHHHHH! Damn this stupid toilet, it’s causing trouble for me too! Causing trouble! Why is the pipe blocked! Why!”

Another series of frantic slapping sounds came. Yet, at this moment, a “bomb” sound was heard and the entire washroom trembled for a bit. The toilet stool actually exploded, and numerous colored liquid splattered all over the washroom!

Only until now did Jeanswest notice a sign hanging at a spot where a person entering the washroom could directly see—”Heh, dear, if you are thinking about hiding in the toilet, you will need to pay the price for it, you pig-heads that lose Merika’s face!”
