Darkness is Coming Chapter 217

In front of the corpse, there were more than 20 distinguished Awakeners sitting in the conference room of the office building. They all arrived early and waited quietly. Even if it was one o'clock in the morning, no one dared to complain, much less Show the slightest dissatisfaction in words or expressions.

  Because a few hours ago, they witnessed an eye-popping drama and a shocking **** cleanse, which made them deeply realize the gap between themselves and others and Commander Liu and President Yang.

   After all the participants were present, the lights went out, and the twenty-two metal torches standing behind the seats lit up with flames, and the trembling flames reflected on the faces of the awakened ones, the elder who pulled their shadows.

Yu Qian's long-awaited Council of Awakeners finally started. He had already decided on the name of the council: the Council of Fire Passers. It was also his idea to turn off the lights and light up twenty-two metal torches corresponding to twenty-two participants. , the torch was made by him temporarily, and the ignition was handed over to Qi Lie.

   However, to Yu Qian's slight disappointment, the participants were all leaders in power within one side of the world, and they were indifferent to his well-arranged opening after seeing the world.

   Liu Yuanzhou, who was sitting on Yu Qian's left, stood up and told in a plain tone the necessity of the Council's existence and the positive role the Council would play on the awakened, and then returned to his seat.

  Yang Xiaoqian, who was sitting on Yu Qian's right and facing Liu Yuanzhou, then stood up and asked the awakened ones to open the parliamentary system manual in their hands.

   "From now on, we will continue to improve the parliamentary system and the code of conduct for the awakened. Well, next, please speak to the speaker." After briefly explaining the voting system and division of powers of the parliament, Yang Xiaoqian sat down and motioned Yu Qian to stand up to give a speech.

that's it? Yu Qian was stunned? Isn't that the voting system? Shouldn't that be the election of a speaker?

  Yang Xiaoqian looked at Yu Qian's puzzled eyes, nodded affirmatively again, indicating that it was time for him to get up and speak. Since the two giants of the Zombie Front Finger and the Yuanjiao Society have appointed Yu Qian as the speaker of the Fire-Breaker Council, he must be elected unanimously even if he votes, and no one will turn a blind eye. It is better to confirm the identity directly and generously than to engage in inferior formalism.

   Ke Yu Qian always felt that Yang Xiaoqian and Liu Yuanzhou's attitudes were a little perfunctory, and curled the corners of his mouth in dissatisfaction. He was about to speak to Yang Xiaoqian, and suddenly recalled the conversation he had with Yang Xiaoqian on the way.

   "Yu Qian, Liu Yuanzhou and I can help you sit as the speaker, but we can't help you be the speaker."

"What's the meaning?"

   "We can help you build a parliament, we can help you establish a system, we can push you to the position of the speaker, but after you sit, whether you can become the real speaker depends on you."

"Why? I gave you all the information you asked for, but you are saying such things now? You clearly know that I don't know anything about it... Or do you want to make things difficult for me, let me retreat, and let the speaker go s position?"

"Neither. If you want to be the leader of the Awakened, you have to take responsibility and courage. Only if you truly have this strength can you secure this position. It's not that I can't help you, but is that what you want? In the eyes of others, what is the difference between your Speaker and the marionette? Since this is what you want, you must control it yourself."

Yu Qian thought that what Yang Xiaoqian said was right, he should grasp it by himself, so he stood up, recalled how Yang Xiaoqian was when he held the conference of the Far Rescue Association, imitated a majestic gesture, and glanced at the participants on both sides with his firm eyes. , solemnly announced: "I announce that the Council of Fire-Breakers will be established immediately!"

   Yang Xiaoqian's lips rose slightly, satisfied with Qian's performance. Obviously, Yu Qian didn't know what he should say, but he avoided this problem in a not stupid way.

   If you talk too much, you will lose. If you talk too much, others will naturally see that he is not good enough, but with only such a sentence, who would have thought that this powerful Speaker Yu actually knows nothing about it?

   Keep your own sense of mystery, so that people can't see through yourself, and when there is a chance, you can supplement and strengthen the weak points. This is a routine that Yang Xiaoqian used once on Paradise Island. Yu Qian can remember and learn to use it, which makes Yang Xiaoqian feel gratified. Maybe Yu Qian can really be the speaker.

   At this point, the Fire Passer Council, which had been on hold for more than three months, was finally established, with Yu Qian as the speaker, Yang Xiaoqian and Liu Yuanzhou as the whip, and the rest of the participants as members.

  The position of the whip comes from the party whip. The whip is responsible for supervising the discipline of the party and ensuring that members of the assembly attend the parliament and act in accordance with the position of the party.

   And the whip is responsible for supervising parliamentary discipline, ensuring that members attend the parliament and perform their due duties.

   The number of Awakened votes is not simply counted by the number of people. Those who only open one chain have only one vote, while those who open two chains have two votes, and so on.

   The Speaker has a veto right when voting, but when two whips hold an objection to the Speaker's veto at the same time, the whip may choose to abstain from voting and set aside the Speaker's one-vote veto. The existence of the whip is not only used to urge MPs, but also to monitor the improper use of the veto by the Speaker.

In the near future, the parliament will be divided into an inner court and an outer court. The outer court is responsible for the attack on the corpse battlefield and the trial and punishment of the Awakened who misbehaved. Awakened matters - such as building the Awakened Academy.

   But at present, the powers and functions of positions have not been clearly divided, and the parliament has only a prototype, and there is no need to separate the inside and outside. But just for such a simple and superficial prototype, the rules are so complicated that Yu Qian has a headache.

   What made him even more indignant was that when the dawn broke and after the parliamentary meeting, he clearly saw the familiar smirk on Yang Xiaoqian's face. That hateful smirk made Yu Qian want to slash his face with a sword.

Since then, Yu Qian has been restless. It took him five days to memorize the "Council Management Manual" written by Yang Xiaoqian for him. The language of this manual is straightforward, the examples are appropriate, and it is easy to understand. It is one thing to see and understand knowledge, but it is another to be able to apply it in practice and use it well. Yu Qian knew that his road to the Speaker was still full of thorns, and there was still a long way to go before he took the right path.

   During the five days that Yuqian was addicted to his studies, a big event happened in Yuanjiang.

   Jiang Wendong, the former battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the 258th Brigade, returned to Xinyuanjiang with the old troops. With the help of Liu Yuanzhou, he integrated the various units separated from the 258th Brigade, reorganized the 258th Division, and served as the acting commander of the 258th Division.

   Afterwards, Jiang Wendong, the acting commander of the 258th Division, together with Liu Yuanzhou and Yang Xiaoqian, jointly set up a "commander against corpses" in Xinyuanjiang - the general headquarters for the battle against zombies - and deployed the troops of the 258th Division to prepare for deployment.

  The tense preparations and mobilization made Xinyuanjiang and the people in the settlements understand that the war against corpses was on the verge of an arrow, and it was imminent.
