Chapter 213 Police Strike?
Chapter 213 Police strike?
As the director's voice fell, the screen immediately switched.
First, I came to a high-altitude bird's-eye view of the metropolis, with row upon row of buildings and a huge tree-lined Central Park. The park is surrounded by a small lake, and the sparkling waves are reflected on the lake, which is very beautiful.
The narration sounded again:
"In the past week, the metropolis has experienced a real estate boom. Millions of new residents have purchased properties in the metropolis. According to relevant statistics, 80% of them have chosen properties within one kilometer of Central Park. The prices are extremely expensive.
!」
"Another 15% choose to take root in high-end apartments along the river, and the last 50% are scattered throughout the metropolis."
"According to reliable information, more than double the number of new residents plan to purchase real estate, but they are suffering from insufficient funds and are still in the process of raising funds. If nothing unexpected happens, this real estate boom will continue into the next week."
A group of players appeared on the screen at the right time, robbing a gun store and frantically stuffing rifles and bullets into their backpacks.
Comments on the comments all exclaimed: "Good guy, are you raising money?"
"If you need money, you have to go to the bank to withdraw it. Is there any problem?"
"No problem at all!"
"I have chosen a penthouse duplex apartment, but the money in Sloan's safe is only half of it, and it is too slow to go to the Continental Hotel to work. Unless I want to rob a bank, the unscrupulous real estate dealer is going too far!"
"If you do one more job tonight, you can live in a new home! Who would have thought that to move virtual real estate to a big city, you would have to buy real estate yourself?"
"There are benefits too! Isn't this much easier than DIY? In reality, it's so expensive to find a decoration master to help build a virtual house! How can it be easier to rob a bank! Robbery! Robbery!"
“Thriving!”
“Thriving!”
…
Soon the barrage rhythm changed to a unified "Thriving!"
Then the scene turned to the entrance of the Metropolitan Police Department. A police inspector stood in front of the speaking platform with a serious face.
"Metropolitan police officers have always been dissatisfied with law enforcement weapons, especially now that crime rates are frequent. Their strong desire for heavy firepower has made this dissatisfaction intensified."
A police inspector faced the camera and said seriously: "The dissatisfaction of the police force can no longer be suppressed. In the next week, grassroots police officers will hold a collective protest march. If the opinions still cannot be taken seriously, we will conduct a protest for at least a week.
General strike."
"Imagine what would happen without the police for a week? The next week is the last chance for the higher-ups to take action!"
"I reiterate it for the last time - we need tanks!"
The chaotic barrage became surprisingly unified again, and countless players blurted out one word - "Fuck!"
"The helicopter isn't enough for you, is it?!"
"Armored vehicles aren't cool enough, are they?"
It's a pity that the player's anger cannot be conveyed on the screen, and the narrator continues to murmur in a low voice——
"Without the police, what would happen? Where would the metropolis go?"
"Is it chaos? Or..."
"Thriving?"
The film ended with the narration whispering, and the screen finally returned to the studio again.
It seemed like a big battle had taken place here: a piece was missing from the edge of the table, and the huge display screen behind it was covered with cracks. Judging from the lines, the chairs should have been hit by them.
The two hosts are no longer decent.
Not to mention her clothes were messy and wrinkled, the female host Jenny had an obvious dark circle on her left eye, and the male host Johnny's three red marks on his neck were still oozing blood, and he would grin from time to time. It looked like the bat was too short to hold up the chair.
Suffered a big loss again.
This scene made the players complain again:
"Seriously? Lost again?"
"Last time the female host made a sneak attack, and if she lost, she would lose. This time she attacked openly, how could she lose? I don't understand!"
"I don't understand either. She has a chair, and you also have a chair! Why are you so polite? Go up and take care of it!"
"If you know you can't win, why do you still have to take the initiative to provoke?"
"Poof! I remembered the story of a hunter and a bear."
"The hunter and the bear? What story?"
"Are you here to hunt or to sell your ass?"
"Hahaha, what a lunatic! I originally planned to give him a gun, but what should I do? Should I give him a gun or medicine?!"
…
The two hosts hurriedly gave their closing speeches to announce the end of the program.
But as always, when the news weekly is over, the subsequent impact will continue to spread.
I won’t talk about the various interesting jokes and data in it, as they will inevitably be reprocessed and turned into other news, short videos, predictions and other content.
Especially the metropolitan police demonstration at the end and the news of a "general strike" if there is no response, many people can't help but speculate whether Yunmeng is brewing some big conspiracy!
After all, the title of Yunmeng's video clearly stated that there was "big news disclosed."
After reading this entire issue of news, it is obvious that this is the news.
But what exactly it is, he happens to be the Riddler again - it's unclear, and he just doesn't make it clear, and he has to let the players guess by themselves.
Everyone in the comment section went crazy——
"It should be DLC, right?"
"No way? The DLC must have a main story. What story can the police strike tell? There are no clues at all!"
"I bet it's not the content of the DLC. According to the main plot of overthrowing the Alliance, it's easy to guess: the DLC should let us destroy the Continental Hotel!"
"Genius! The logic is smooth and impeccable!"
"What is that? A game event? Cancel the pursuit mechanism of the Metropolitan Police within a limited time. If there is any criminal behavior, the police will not be dispatched?"
"For what? To make it easier for us to rob banks?"
"It seems to make sense?"
"It totally makes sense! Look, I mentioned earlier that many people were raising money to buy a house, and then the Metropolitan Police marched and prepared to go on strike. It's obviously to make it easier for everyone to buy a house, right?!"
"Hey guys, do you want to stimulate real estate sales in the game? That's outrageous!"
Players' speculations gradually went in strange directions, and many people even began to rub shoulders, planning to take advantage of this opportunity to make a good vote!
You know, after clearing the main storyline of the game, the unlocked permissions are not only to embed virtual houses into the metropolis, but also to give players the privilege of buying a house.
There is no purchase limit for this privilege of buying a house!
In other words, as long as you can get enough money, you can theoretically even buy the entire Metropolis!
Of course, that requires a huge amount of virtual currency. If you just rely on robbery, you can successfully rob it every day. You can only buy four or five houses in a month, and you can't even buy a building.
But this does not hinder players’ motivation to buy a house. Some players have even started to buy their third or even fourth house!
It’s not that I want to live in it, I just like to buy it.
When you have nothing to do, open your personal panel, look at the house under your name, and feel pure happiness!
Thanks for the 100-point reward from Hongxingnuo!
Chapter completed!
