In American comics, drawing cards reveals wave-particle duality
Chapter 39: Public Opinions Frequently, Zubao Looks for Newman in the Middle of the Night
Newman's full name is Victoria Newman. She has a Latin appearance. When she was a child, she was injected with Compound No. 5, which stimulated her superpower to blow people's heads off when she saw them, and she sent her parents directly to see Jesus.
Afterwards, she was sent to the local Red River Orphanage, which specialized in adopting superhuman orphans. She was later adopted by Stan Edgar, who was actually a secret agent trained by Vought Corporation.
On the surface, she frequently puts on a show, criticizing the Vought Corporation and the Collected Church, which have jurisdiction over superhumans.
In fact, she often carried out assassination missions and had eliminated many high-ranking personnel over the years. She was one of the trump cards deliberately set up by Edgar.
The Vought Group has done a lot of shady things over the years. The best way to block public opinion and federal investigations is to set up an "anti-Vought organization" and disguise themselves as the biggest "Vought hack" to supervise themselves.
The "rebels" represented by Newman are one of them.
The Homelanders are only on the surface, but in reality they are creating social panic in order to win over the masses and sell Compound No. 5.
In this way, Vought Company has both the black and white sides in its control, and no matter how much Congress opposes, it cannot prevent Compound No. 5 from being sold to the military.
The essence of Water Company is pharmaceutical manufacturing, and selling medicines is its foundation.
In this way, both the black and white worlds are Walt's people. It is a good show directed and acted by Edgar himself. He can also use this organization to clean up the super-powered people who have a negative impact on Walt.
But let me be frank... Now the Jizhong Church and Walter are cooperating with each other for mutual benefit. The two have always not disturbed each other and only played around on the surface. Edgar suddenly did this, isn't it slapping himself in the face...
Or perhaps, this was Newman's own wish.
That makes sense...
And this is indeed the case.
Just two days ago in the middle of the night, an uninvited guest came to the Newman family's backyard. The man was wearing a blue tights and a red robe, and had a defiant look on his face.
"Homelander? Coming to my house in the middle of the night...what do you want to do?"
Newman was still in her pajamas at this time. She quickly pulled her clothes up and looked at Homelander with a vigilant look.
"Hey, I'm here as a guest... Why, you don't welcome me... Or are you worried about the little girl pretending to sleep in the room?"
"Homelander, what do you want to do?"
“In fact, we can work together.”
Homelander narrowed his eyes, with a wicked smile and a grin on his face.
"Cooperation? I don't want to cooperate with a dangerous person like you. I'm going to sleep. Go away."
Newman's face was full of rejection.
"Don't be impatient... Actually, I'm curious. You are obviously a superhuman, so why do you keep an ordinary human little girl?"
"Homelander, Zoe is my daughter no matter what, you'd better not have any thoughts about her."
"Oh? I heard that you were trying to find Compound No. 5 through your connections... If you want, I can give it to you."
Homelander stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Newman, feeling her heart beating wildly as it began to beat uncontrollably.
"You're moved."
"Tell me, what do you want?"
"It's actually very simple. You won't lose out on this cooperation. I heard that you've been working for the election. How about this... let me take control of the Vought Group, and you become the vice president. I'll also give you Compound No. 5. We'll both win."
At this point, the motherland spread his hands.
"Is not it good?"
"But you don't have the power to monopolize the entire seven-member team now."
"Then...we'll have it again."
The clip flashes back to the present again.
Behind the crowd, in a very secluded corner, Newman, with black hair and a high nose bridge, changed his eyes from pure white back to normal color, and then hurriedly left the crowd, making a phone call as he left.
The scene changes.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
"What...what's going on?"
The church members were in a panic. Their brains went blank as they looked at the horrific corpse of their leader.
The most devastated one was Shen Hai. He had just spent the entire night discussing his comeback with the leader the day before yesterday, but he didn't expect the leader to explode today...
He looked at Jonathan anxiously, and Jonathan gave him a look that told him to be patient, which calmed him down a little.
After backstabbing Homelander, Deep Sea's only support now is Jonathan. Fortunately, this new BOSS doesn't seem to be panicked.
However, the leader's spectacular death was bound to cause panic among those present. Almost half of the protesters had run away, with only a few stubborn ones still holding signs and shouting.
Jonathan ignored these jumping idiots, turned around and said to Shen Hai:
"Go and contact other superhumans in the church immediately to strengthen the protection of this place, and then see if you can find any trace of Newman."
After saying that, Jonathan walked straight to the garage and drove away.
To be honest, he came here today just to borrow some people to facilitate brainwashing, but he encountered such a thing as soon as he arrived, and there was absolutely no sign before this.
No matter how stupid Jonathan was, he could still realize that he was being targeted by Newman.
He was also present at the protest site. If nothing unexpected happened, the news of his cooperation with the Jizhong Church would be exposed online by the media, and public opinion would be directed in another direction.
Sure enough, not long after Jonathan returned to the Lighthouse of Seven, Ashley came towards him in high heels, holding a tablet.
"Wu Jin, there are a lot of negative opinions about you online right now... When you went to the Jizhong Church today, you were photographed by the media. I think you should take a good look at it."
Ashley handed him the phone. On the screen was a tweet from Congresswoman @VictoriaNewman:
"It's time to reflect on our 'heroes'. The Seven need a real leader, not a traffic puppet of Vought Corporation. #LetHomelanderReturnTheCaptainofTheSevenReturns"
Jonathan picked up his phone and continued swiping.
@New York Times: "The Seven: What kind of leaders do we need?"
@Wall Street Journal: Superheroes and Corporate Interests
In addition to several major mainstream media, other official accounts also released several videos that were obviously shot on the spot.
@Entertainment Weekly: Special feature "Remembering the Homeland: The End of an Era"
Through a series of nostalgic photos and fan interview videos, he listed all the good things that his motherland had done, and emphasized the "sense of security" and "social support rate" during his reign.
Looking at these trending searches and discussions, Jonathan could clearly feel Newman's efforts in promoting public opinion. The purpose was now very clear, which was to elevate Homelander and return him to the position of captain of the Seven.
If there were no conflicts of interest, the ruthless Newman would never cooperate with his countrymen, let alone help him. It seems that they are now trying to unite to target him.
But is Jonathan afraid of being targeted?
Don't forget, he still has the videotape that Shen Hai gave him. As long as his support rate remains, he will always have the trump card to beat Zu Bao half to death.
Not only that, after gaining the ability to absorb energy, Jonathan's strength has now entered the first echelon in the Black Robe World, and he no longer has to be timid when doing things like before.
We need to speed up the pace of conquering this world.
