Tokyo, January 30th.
The Tokyo Bay Camp Supervisory and Management Committee had a dinner to discuss the issue of selecting a speaker, and finally decided to jointly elect Watsukichi, whose age and reputation were both qualified.
Gao Cheng and his wife looked on with cold eyes. They had no right to speak at all, or even if they spoke, no one would listen. They might as well keep silent to avoid making people laugh.
This is the political world. It’s not about capital, it’s about qualifications, status and reputation.
Of course, without capital, you can’t even get in.
Fortunately, the couple was not interested in politics and had no hope of doing anything in politics.
What they want is a title, something that can shine on their family and increase their background.
In the world before the disaster, they needed to enter the political world and work hard for several decades. Under normal circumstances, they could only obtain a seventh-level medal, maybe a sixth-level medal, or at most a fifth-level medal.
In the post-disaster world, relying on their achievements in caring for the country and their capital, no matter who is in power, they can obtain at least a fifth-level honor, maybe a fourth-level honor, and at most a third-level honor.
Tokugawa Shigemo does not need their icing on the cake, and Tokugawa Kiki needs their help in times of need, so they support Tokugawa Kiki and can obtain at least a third-level honorary title.
Then, after waiting for decades, he was promoted to the second-level honorary rank. When he died, he was awarded a posthumous title and added another level, reaching the first-level honorary rank.
It is impossible for ordinary civilians to do this kind of thing, and they will not receive any honors until they die.
As for the first-level honors, upper-level bureaucratic families can obtain them every time, but middle- and lower-level bureaucratic families can only linger below the third-level honors after spending hundreds or thousands of years.
If the Gaocheng family can be promoted in their generation, the descendants of the Gaocheng family will have a superior starting point and be able to do anything easily.
Therefore, there was no way for Takagi and his wife not to be tempted by the conditions for the title offered by Tokugawa Kiki.

February 1, National Assembly.
Members of the Supervisory and Management Committee met to discuss the issue of the new speaker, and finally decided that the current interim speaker Heshu Tsunekichi would take over and become the new speaker to preside over the parliament.
Tsunekichi Watsuyoshi, the temporary speaker, was sent to him by Mr. Tokugawa Sadada in exchange for his support for Tokugawa Shigemo.
Tokugawa Xixi was helpless. He could only passively continue the game left by Mr. Tokugawa Sada, and could not solve it for the time being.
However, he also made arrangements in a different way, which is also the only solution - everyone is in charge.
Waxu Tsunekichi is not Tokugawa Tadaide. He is qualified to be in power, but he is not qualified enough to lead everyone. Many people are not convinced by him.
His rise to power was just the result of everyone's compromise, and there was no one else who could be more recognized by everyone.
Tokugawa Sadaide is promoting the replacement of artificial intelligence people, replacing the ship girl Katsuragi Ai with artificial intelligence people controlled by the committee.
Now, each camp has an artificial intelligence person, and everyone plays their own role.
Of course, Tokugawa Xixi has no intention of mentioning this matter here now. He will talk about it slowly at the next camp one by one.
I believe they will agree, and then when the raw rice becomes cooked rice, the discussion will just be a formality.
The most important issue now is not government affairs, but security.
He knew a master, but he didn't want to protect him.
What they mean is that this is a test, and if you can't survive, just die.
For this reason, he could only rely on Yoyogi Shrine.
Although these grievances are nothing, it is good after all if you can bear them.
However, both the Gao Cheng family and the Yuki family are useless, not to mention the other forces that have climbed up.
This world is really difficult for someone like him who only bears the name of the Tokugawa family.
But this kind of challenge is interesting.
…
In the next few days, Tokugawa Kihi took Mimura Nobuhi to promote the artificial intelligence human integrated by Mimura Nobuhi, and achieved good results.
Also accompanying him were the three bodyguards dragged by Nobushi Mimura, Hiroki Sugimura, Takako Chigusa, Akiya Nanabahara, and Shogo Kawada.
Qiu Nanabahara and Takako Chigusa both have poor martial arts values, but their athletic ability is very good. After wearing exoskeleton armor, their strength is not inferior to that of top security guards.
Kawada Shogo's personal strength is good, and he is even stronger after wearing the exoskeleton armor. The most important thing is that he is cruel and can be won over.
Sugimura Hiroki is very strong and can use his mental power freely. He is not inferior to the masters of Genryu. He is a reliable guy. The problem is that he is not under his control, but it is enough if he can borrow it.
However, only this one is weak.
There was also Kiriyama Kazuo on their side, but Tokugawa Kiki didn't want to have any more contact with him.
To be honest, I didn't know what he was thinking at all, and I felt scared when I looked at those eyes without any fluctuation.

North Pole, February 3rd.
Yamazaki looked far away and saw huge corpses and bloodstains like small lakes.
Yamazaki couldn't help but sigh deeply, immersed in a feeling called desolation.
Looking back at history, human history is only a few million years old. The current history of human beings is only tens of thousands of years, and the great development of mankind is only three hundred years.
Taking sixty years as one generation, it is only five generations.
And these five generations have made a mess of the earth, which has a life span of hundreds of millions of years.
Many species have disappeared, the climate has become bad, and nature has been destroyed to a complete confusion.
Of course, Earth doesn't care about this.
When one day, humans truly cross the line and are overtaken by nature, she will not care.
Just as she sat back and watched humans destroy other species, she would also sit back and watch humans perish.
In other words, humans still exist, but they are not the original humans. They are new humans that can adapt to the natural environment that has been distorted by humans.
As for how many people will die from this, I'm sorry, the earth won't care. This is natural elimination.
If you don’t want to die, just fight. If you don’t want to fight and are worried that you will die because of the fight, then you can only live with luck and deceive yourself and others.
This is a process of boiling a frog in cold water. As long as you don't cross the line, you won't die.
But no one knows how quickly water heats up.
Maybe nothing will happen to one generation, but maybe the next generation will suffer the disasters planted by the predecessors.
It is said that the ancestors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade.
But if our predecessors industrialized at the expense of the environment, what would happen to future generations?
Enjoy the radiation? Or become climate refugees?
Enjoy ancient unknown viruses even like now.

Tokyo, February 5th.
The Supervision and Management Committee held a regular meeting, and Tokugawa Kihi proposed that each camp use their own artificial intelligence people, on the grounds that each place has its own customs.
This proposal was approved by the majority of people because it was in their interests.
Tokugawa Shigemo received the news early on, but he couldn't stop it, even if Tokugawa was still alive.
It is better for local supervisory and regulatory committees to control their own artificial intelligence people than to be managed by an uncontrolled artificial intelligence person.
Katsuragi Ai, the ship girl, is the same as what Tokugawa is determined to promote.
