Chapter 146 Give it a try

"If we steal the situation here to the federal government..." Aaron swallowed it back halfway through his words, and he immediately realized that even if he did this, he might not be of much help to the situation.

Although the government and the military have differences and even confrontations in many aspects, the military is still a violent organ under the jurisdiction of the government. The government provides legitimacy for the military to consume public resources to exercise violence. In turn, the military uses coercive power to ensure the security of the government. No matter how fierce the conflict between the two breaks out in the battle for power, at least it will never turn against each other on issues of unanimous foreign affairs, because turning against each other means that the federal government, which has finally been combined with peacekeeping wars, will quickly collapse and disintegrate and let the Eurasian continent return to the political territory of the early century. However, the United States of the Ocean they are facing now is an extremely aggressive fascist regime, and self-disintegration means that they will be defeated by each other.

After understanding these principles, it is not difficult to infer that even if the federal government knows that the military has made a mistake in the Ninth District, it will not act vigorously. This not only damages the reputation of the military, but also involves the legitimacy of the government. It is a fool of killing enemies with 800 and destroying one thousand of them. It cannot be implemented unless there are extremely special needs. The most likely situation is that the government will remain silent after learning the truth, and then use everything that occurs in the Ninth District to blackmail the military to obtain the concessions they want. The Ninth District as a bargaining chip to threaten the military is not guaranteed at all. After the military meets the government's requirements, it will be abandoned and silenced. The surviving residents may die faster than doing nothing.

Those depressed soldiers might have figured out this matter and realized that they were destined to become abandoned children of the military and government, so they all looked so depressed.

"Did you figure it out?" the old district head asked, rubbing his eyes, which were a little dizzy because he was older.

"I figured it out. Doing this is a search for death. The current government is more unreliable than the military." Aaron nodded depressedly, "Isn't it a bit ironic for us two civil servants to discuss the reliability of the government here?"

"The destruction of the old order has changed a lot of things." The old district chief took a sip of tea in a cup of tea. "Those who support change call it revolution, and those who oppose change call it disaster."

"What is the ninth district? The old order before the old order?" Following the old district mayor's words, Aaron suddenly felt inexplicably anxious.

"Maybe science has pushed the speed of order iteration too quickly, so that no one left behind can leave the market with a decent chance to be crushed by the wheel of history." The old district head sighed, "What are your plans now? If we start from the interests of those outside, the ninth district would be better to become a place with no entry and no exit until everyone dies, so they will not pay attention to any negotiations from the wall at all, and will only firmly stop the attempts to leave here."

"Why gather the people inside? There are so many people and great power." Aaron found that it was no longer his moral decision, and even his personal safety was tied to the ninth district.

"Maybe it can be executed, but it's hard to do it." The old district head stretched out two fingers, "The people who are still alive outside are generally divided into two categories. One is a smart person who is suspicious, and the other is a lucky idiot. What do you think is the effect of pinching these two types of people together?"

"This..." Aaron could not answer. Not to mention thinking about the problem that would make him headache when he thinks about it, just how to gather these people together is an extremely difficult task. The obstacle to this task is not external forces but their distrust.

"If you are really determined, I don't mind pushing you. If you just lack the IQ and perseverance to execute it with wishful thinking, helping you is a waste of my time." Ah Long, who had a complicated expression, said honestly.

"I think I can do it...at least I think I can try it!" Aaron turned his head and looked at Ling Xiao beside him, and his dodging eyes became a little firmer.

"Then I'll give you a chance to 'try'," the old district head stood up with an annoying sneer on his face, "Come with me."

"Oh." It was not the best negotiation result, but it was better than nothing. With this mentality, Aaron followed and walked upstairs to the old district head. Although Ling Xiao next to him had little understanding of the conversation between the two, he followed quickly.

The three of them came all the way to the rooftop of the district government. This place that has always been used as a tarmac still retains an aircraft - a military jet helicopter. It is equipped with considerable external armor and redundant propulsion systems than the police model. Thanks to the designs that the helicopter has bullet holes all over the body, it does not look like it has been damaged in structural damage. Aaron even felt that it could soar in the sky again after proper maintenance.

"I just sat on it and landed here. When it landed, the plane seemed to be able to work. Several soldiers tried to repair it but gave up quickly." Ling Xiao explained the origin of the plane to Aaron.

"It has not broken yet, it has just damaged several key parts, which you can find in the ninth zone." The old district head reached out and touched the helicopter's outer armor plate with a pet-like expression, adding.

"Do you want me to help repair this plane?" Aaron understood what the other party meant.

"Can you do it?" the old district mayor asked.

"I can try it, but what's the use of repairing it? As long as those drones are still spinning in the sky, they will not be able to take off safely." Aaron was not sure.

"This is not necessarily." The old district head shook his head, "How did you come in safely?"

"Uh." Aaron couldn't answer. He originally thought that his police identity asked the drone to identify him as a non-attack object, but now it seems that's not the case. The drone that was originally controlled by the military even attacked the military's own transport aircraft. Where can there be any normal enemy-to-me recognition function?

"The deeper meaning of the BUG or the deeper meaning of the mystery behind it has allowed those drones to let you go. You are the only one who can safely pass the drone control area." The old district head looked up and down with a subtle look, "Have you learned to fly a plane before?"

"In an emergency, you can barely let it fly." Commonly used vehicles are a compulsory course for police officers on the scene. There are many traffic-assisted computers that support modern vehicles. The driving methods of Aaron's grades in this course are very simple, but Aaron's grades in this course are not very good.

"That's enough. If you repair it, you can give it the ability to move freely over the ninth district. No matter what you plan to do next, it will definitely help you." said the old district chief.

"What if I get beaten down from heaven?" Aaron smiled bitterly.

"That's why you're so destined." The old district chief looked indifferent. "I'm willing to help you just because you are the only person in District 9 who is not targeted by drones. If you don't even have this advantage, why should I care about your life or death?"

"...Okay." The old district mayor said this very ruthlessly, but Aaron didn't expect the other party to think of Ling Chong as his own son. Putting aside the fact that he is actually worthless in social identity, the two are just using each other's cooperative relationship. It is purely too much to think about finding the warmth of human nature in such a relationship.

"Girl, take the iron box in the back seat." Seeing that Ah Long accepted the conditions, the old district head and Ling Xiao ordered.

"Oh." Ling Xiao obediently walked into the helicopter and took a tin box from the back seat. The box was not big and could be carried directly by hand. After opening it, there were several burnt or deformed parts inside.

"This is a compressor regulator, this is a tail servo gyroscope, this is an onboard laser rangefinder, this is an inverter for the main power supply. As long as you get these four things that can work normally, we can make it fly again." The old district head and Aaron explained the names of each part one by one, but Aaron, who lacks basic knowledge, sounds like listening to a book of heaven.

"Can you really find these things in the ninth district?" No matter how you sound, it doesn't seem like something used by ordinary civilians, Aaron doubted.

"Do you think the Ninth District can maintain relative economic independence for a long time because it can open casinos and brothels with tax exemption?" The old district chief gave him a blank look, "Even if peace is achieved in name only, the most profitable deal in the world is still an arms business, not to mention that some people in the Ninth District are always ready to arm the government."
