Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 1142 Misleading Yourself (6000 words)
"John Li is a thug, a complete thug. We should send out an action team to completely wipe out this damn bastard." Des, deputy director of the Secret Intelligence Department, said gritting his teeth.

This guy was caught by Li John last time because he disguised himself as a woman to contact Vivian. Not only was he injected with a reducing agent, but he was also broadcasting it live. During the live broadcast, he also used a high-voltage electric shock device to continuously shock himself, allowing him to experience how severe the intelligence department's punishment is.

This ugly appearance was seen by people all over the world. People who knew me looked at me strangely. Some gays even asked me out because they thought I liked disguising myself as a woman and must want to be an O.

"Recently we have found some identity information of John Li. This guy may have been a killer before, and a top killer." The Minister of the Federal Intelligence Department ignored Des's words and spoke directly.

"what?"

"Killer?" Everyone else in the meeting was stunned.

"Take a look at this information. During the time when John Li was away from the Federation, some important figures in the three countries died, and the origin of his wealth is also questionable."

"Of course, we only retrieved a small portion of the information about his assets, because most of his income is deposited in the alliance's bank."

"John Li doesn't have any property, but what kind of life did he lead before? He had his own manor and was the second largest shareholder of Black Star Company. His income and expenditure are seriously unbalanced."

"Combining this information, we can see that John Lee is very likely to be a killer, because he has many similarities with other killers in our federation." The Minister of Intelligence produced a piece of information, which showed that 90% of the times John Lee went out, some relatively famous people would die.

"Nineteenth on the killer rankings! Dream manipulator!" The Deputy Minister of the Federal Intelligence Department looked at the information of the dead, then checked it and exclaimed.

“I can only say it might be.”

"So the intelligence you have in your hands is likely to be problematic."

"Who is the dream controller? What kind of super powers does he have? We know nothing about these!" The minister nodded.

The Deputy Minister of Intelligence, the Director and Deputy Director of the Secret Intelligence Department, the Presidential Assistant, and the Vice Presidential Assistant who attended the meeting were all a little surprised.

"If that's the case, our people are likely to be exposed?" The director of the Secret Intelligence Department felt a headache.

"I don't know, because we know nothing about the superpowers of dream controllers, but I guess it should be a mental superpower."

"Besides, there are many financial backers behind these top killers, which explains why John Lee was able to rise so quickly."

"I guess the financial backers behind him are supporting him."

“So the next step is to let these two intelligence officers further understand the situation of Li John’s fleet. In addition, we need to check the list of people suspected of being killed by the dream manipulator, and use this to find the financial backers behind the dream manipulator.” The minister added.

"It seems that this bastard Li John had planned it all out long ago. The first time he captured a pirate warship, Karayabang refused to accept it, so it became his private property." The Director of the Secret Intelligence Department said.

"Haha, do you think it might be the Pirate Alliance that's supporting John Lee behind this?"

"The internal conflicts in the Pirates Alliance have intensified in recent years, and some people may have wanted to transform a lot earlier."

"The pirates can successfully launder the pirate warships in this way."

"John Li captured the warship twice. Don't you think it was too easy?" The minister guessed with a chuckle.

"Fuck!" The deputy director cursed out loud.

"The minister is wise. Once this assumption is established, Li John's strange behavior will be easily explained. If both sides act out this way, not to mention a mecha, even one person can capture a battleship." The deputy director continued.

"Well, so we can't trust the Pirate Alliance completely. After all, there are all kinds of forces within the Pirate Alliance. It's not certain who is colluding with John Lee. Just look at the Alliance. The pirates are actually colluding with the Roman Group. The Roman Group not only defrauded insurance, but also shorted the insurance company in the stock market. In the future, it will acquire the other party and attack some opponents. The pirates not only obtained supplies, but also completed the task of destroying the March Star Channel."

"So we shouldn't believe anything, even if it's passed on by our intelligence personnel."

"Our intelligence personnel are excellent, but if Li John is really a dream manipulator, then perhaps the information they convey back is what others let us see in an attempt to mislead us," the minister continued.

Yang Bo attended the whole meeting through Des, and he was impressed by the minister. The minister was also a top psychic superpower user. However, Yang Bo observed that the direction of the minister's psychic power should be data processing.

This type of person is involved in logical analysis, data reasoning, data connection, data organization, etc. He or she can find suspicious connections in massive amounts of data.

This is something that intelligent systems cannot analyze, such as the famous murders that occurred around the world during John Lee's absence.

Then, based on the number of people who died during each time Li Yuehan was away from the country, it was analyzed that Li Yuehan might be a dream manipulator.

Intelligent systems have no way of identifying these related data without any evidence.

Because when John Li left the country, there must have been many people leaving at the same time, and there must have been many outsiders in the place where people died.

This is why intelligent systems cannot replace humans. Intelligent systems rely on data and evidence.

This kind of very fuzzy and unrelated data analysis still depends on people, and sometimes human feelings are beyond the reach of intelligent systems.

"Hehe, it's great that you mislead yourselves. It will be more beneficial to me if you don't believe in the Pirate Alliance." Yang Bo smiled in his heart. The federal intelligence agency misled itself.

Of course, it can also be said that John Li colluded with the Pirate Alliance, because John Li learned the news of the Pirate Alliance from within their ranks.

It's just a different method.

The subsequent task of the federal intelligence department is to continue to dig deeper into John Lee’s past information and require Vivian to obtain some of John Lee’s bank account information.

The main reason is that the income of Li John's killers is kept in the alliance's bank. The alliance's bank data is highly confidential, because once the user information data of the alliance bank is leaked, it will go bankrupt immediately.

Even the judicial institutions within the alliance cannot obtain depositors' personal information.

The capitalists of the Alliance Bank will not let their bank go bankrupt. Even within the bank, no one dares to leak information because they are not sure what the person who wants the information is going to do.

Not to mention a federal intelligence agency.

Then Lisa continued to learn more about Li John’s three C-class battleships.

Let Vivian and Lisa start dividing the work.

Because Vivian knew nothing about warships, if she asked about them again, it would easily arouse Li John's suspicion.

Lisa knew something about the battleship's system, and the federal intelligence department downgraded the credibility of the intelligence collected by the two people by two levels.

Because the federal intelligence agency suspected that John Lee was the dream manipulator.

Then the probability of these two intelligence officers being exposed could reach 90%.

This made the director of the Secret Intelligence Department of the Federal Intelligence Agency feel very uncomfortable.

Because Lisa and Vivian are both special talents trained by the Intelligence Department, huge resources have been invested in them.

If it is later confirmed that the two were deceived by Li Yuehan, it means that the Intelligence Department lost both the wife and the army, which means that Li Yuehan played with the entire Intelligence Department.

Of course, the deputy director felt even more upset and was planning to cause trouble for Li John.

The deputy director had no idea that his thoughts had already been known by the other party.

Yang Bo stopped paying attention to the federal intelligence department's meeting before it ended.

Because Yang Bo accompanied Su Wei, Annie and Xiya came to Zhang Bozhen's villa.

"Fourth brother!"

"Fourth brother!" After Yang Bo and his companions got off the car, they saw Zhang Bozhen waiting at the gate, so they greeted him.

"Thank you for your hard work, bro!"

"Sister-in-law!" Zhang Bozhen said to Yang Bo, "Thank you for your hard work." He was referring to Yang Bo's role in delivering the message to the Ninth Fleet.

"It's not hard." Yang Bo replied with a smile.

Then several people were welcomed by Zhang Bozhen and taken to a tea room specially set up to entertain guests.

After Zhang Bozhen personally poured tea for the few people, he said, "Yang Bo, what do you think about becoming a celebrity on the rich list?"

Yang Bo sat on the sofa and replied with a smile: "My life is still the same. These things in the outside world have little to do with me!"

Zhang Bozhen laughed: "You are quite calm. Do you know that after you were listed, you almost beat all the younger generation of the alliance."

"Because you are truly self-made!"

“The others have received help from the family.”

"Fortunately you're not in their dirty circle, where anything can happen!"

Zhang Bozhen was very confident in Yang Bo, because Yang Bo was a homebody who seldom came out throughout the year.

I used to play games at home alone, but now that I have several girlfriends, I have become even more of a homebody.

Zhang Bozhen was afraid that other people would come into contact with Yang Bo. After all, his current development was inseparable from the materials produced by these mutant animals on Yang Bo's private land.

If Yang Bo frequently contacts other people, Zhang Bozhen will be worried.

Yang Bo said with a smile: "Fourth brother, can you take more of the mutant black rock bees? They reproduce too fast."

"It has a certain impact on the ecological environment inside the greenhouse. Next, I plan to lock up the queen bee of the mutant black rock bees and control their development."

Zhang Bozhen almost jumped up when he heard this. The mutated black rock bees are the materials for making wisdom potions. The more of these things you have, the better. Yet you still want to restrict their development.

So I quickly said, "No, I'll take whatever you have over there in the future, and don't restrict their continued development."

“Then I will inform you, fourth brother, after I catch it, and you can send someone to take it away.” Yang Bo certainly knew how rare the materials of the mutated black rock bee were.

"No problem!" The only person Zhang Bozhen envied since he was a child was Yang Bo.

This made Zhang Bozhen wonder if Yang Bo was having an affair with the goddess of luck.

When they immigrated to March Star, they encountered pirates and then drifted to Green Devil Star. The March Star government compensated them with a large sum of money and a large piece of land.

At that time, many people called Yang Bo a fool, including the government departments of March Star, because March Star was in fiscal deficit at that time, and no one wanted the land on the planet even if it was given away.

Rare mutant animals were discovered on private land one after another, and these two mutant animals are good materials for energy potions.

After joining the Sword Association, he not only became famous within the alliance, but also became famous in the empire after going abroad. He also brought back a princess from the empire. Although this princess was an ordinary person, she was still a princess.

Although these people in the alliance criticized the nobles of the empire.

But if you ask these people in the alliance whether they are willing to live the life of imperial aristocrats in their hearts, they are 100% willing to do so.

Haven’t you noticed that the lifestyles of many powerful people in the Alliance are modeled after those nobles?

Then the extremely rare black rock bees brought by the princess actually mutated a second time.

Yang Bo will accumulate more and more wealth by relying on the mutant animal materials produced from his land.

And one day, the matter of the smart potion will be exposed to the world, and by then, Yang Bo's net worth will skyrocket many times.

The most important thing is that Yang Bo does not invest recklessly.

Zhang Bozhen knew that the so-called stock investment, fund investment, and financial investment within the alliance were all tools for these consortiums to transfer risks.

It is also a tool for harvesting other people's wealth.

In the league, the price of a stock does not fluctuate because of its own performance fluctuations.

Rather, it fluctuates in the order of the time nodes when these performance information are disclosed.

For example, some favorable news is announced first, so that the stock price rises sharply, and other people rush in to buy.

Then another piece of bad news was announced and the stock price fell.

Then most of them were harvested.

As for angel investment, it is just a way for capital to take over your industry.

Angel investment and bet agreements may seem to be fair and just agreements, but as long as the consortiums want, you are 100% sure to lose in a bet agreement.

Because capital has many ways to make you lose.

What capital likes most is greedy people.

People like Yang Bo who don't like to invest everywhere are what capital hates the most.

Of course, capital also has another way to deal with people like Yang Bo, which is to directly bankrupt the bank.

Then it is sold to others at a very low price. As for the depositors' money, there is a maximum compensation amount.

But that is how capital deals with clients who have no background and no development potential.

Zhang Bozhen looked at Yang Bo's three girlfriends, each of whom had very different styles.

Zhang Bozhen doesn’t have a girlfriend now, but he did have one before, but he lost her since March Star’s situation got better.

Because Zhang Bozhen is now in the rising period of his career, and some women now have ulterior motives.

There is a high possibility that a woman would write a short essay about him, and then Zhang Bozhen’s own reputation would be ruined, and it would also affect the development of March Star.

I believe that as long as there are women willing to write their own essays, there will be a lot of capital willing to push it forward.

Many geniuses in the history of the league have fallen at the hands of women.

"Yang Bo, let's go for a walk in the garden!" Zhang Bozhen said to Yang Bo again.

Yang Bo nodded, turned around and said to Su Wei and the others, "I'll be back soon."

After arriving in the garden, Zhang Bozhen said, "Yang Bo, thank you for this time!"

"But I hope you can continue to act as the middleman between me and the other party!"

"The development of March Star is inseparable from their protection!"

"The situation will probably become more and more complicated in the future. The reward for destroying the March Star Channel has doubled!"

"And the better March Star develops, the more valuable our land will be."

Of course Yang Bo knew that the other party was talking about the contact with the Ninth Fleet.

"Don't worry, fourth brother. It's just a simple message." Yang Bo nodded.

"I plan to give them a large piece of land to use as a base this time."

“Because the government can’t give money openly.”

“So this is the only way to help them.”

"In addition, if their families come to settle on our planet, we will also introduce certain welfare measures."

"Can you help me pass a message over there and see if they have any other requests."

When Yang Bo heard Zhang Bozhen say this, he nodded and said, "I will communicate with the other party as soon as possible."

Then Zhang Bozhen looked at Yang Bo and asked, "You have made an invaluable contribution this time. Do you have any requests?"

"Fourth brother, I don't have any requests. Anyway, the better March Star develops, the more valuable my land will be. Helping you is the same as helping me." Yang Bo felt a little guilty when he said this.

Because of his several identities, he treated Zhang Bozhen like a beast of burden.

Moreover, these things put all the risks on Zhang Bozhen, while he took all the benefits himself.

For example, for those medicines, you provide the materials yourself and get a share of the profits, then Mr. Jiu gets another share as the middleman, and there is also a third share of the profits from pharmaceutical production.

Zhang Bozhen smiled slightly when he heard Yang Bo's words: "I find that Yang Bo, you live a very transparent life, unlike other people who care about every little thing."

Yang Bo chuckled when he heard this: "My life now is something I never dared to imagine. When I was building welfare housing, I was thinking about when I could buy a better female robot. As for having children and having a girlfriend, I never dared to think about it."

"Now I can play games freely at home without any smart system to interfere. I feel very happy, not to mention that I have three girlfriends."

Zhang Bozhen laughed when he heard this: "Sometimes people who don't fight have good luck. You have the best luck of anyone I've ever seen. You went to the empire and not only brought back Princess Su Wei, but also brought back black bees. Moreover, the black rock bees have mutated a second time."

"As your elder brother, let me tell you something. If you have money, don't invest in any stock funds."

“Some people have made a fortune by investing in stock funds, but only a small number of people.”

"The alliance will exaggerate the publicity of this small number of people and then encourage more people to buy stocks and funds."

"These things are not in your hands, but in other people's hands."

Yang Bo laughed and said, "Fourth brother, I actually understood what you said a long time ago."

"When I was in welfare housing, I knew that the freedom the alliance talked about was only the freedom that the capitalists and politicians thought of, not the freedom that we citizens thought of."

"We, the powerless ones, have our freedom imposed on us by others!"

“That’s why I come out to work!”

Zhang Bozhen shook his head: "We brothers should just say this, and don't let outsiders hear it. Those who speak the truth often don't end up well."

"If you tell the truth, everyone will hate you. On the one hand, you reveal the truth about the freedom of the alliance, and on the other hand, the people who create the truth about this freedom will hate you."

"On the other hand, those who have been deceived will also hate you because you have shattered their dream of freedom."

When Yang Bo heard this, he knew that Zhang Bozhen was a qualified politician, so he asked, "Zhou Rui wanted me to ask you how she should develop in the future."

"Yang Bo, it depends on her. It is much more difficult for women to develop in their careers than men."

"This is mainly due to everyone's thinking. Although there is official propaganda among the people, it can be seen that women have great power."

"But this is an illusion. It is precisely because women have made too much noise in many aspects that the top leaders of the alliance dare not allow more women to enter the decision-making level."

"Imagine what would happen if the entire parliament of the alliance was made up of women, and what society would be like."

Yang Bo nodded when he heard this. The social status of women in the alliance is highly valued.

But precisely because they are praised too highly, women do not receive much support in politics.

In other words, no matter what these women at the bottom of society do, it will not have much impact on the alliance.

So what will happen if these women reach the decision-making level of the alliance?

Yang Bo shuddered at the thought.

"Another point is that female politicians hate each other very much because they are praised too highly and they all think their views are correct and are unwilling to cooperate with each other."

"Look at the big women's groups in society. The situations within them are very complicated. You often criticize me and I criticize you in the media."

"So if Zhou Rui wants to pursue a career in politics, she has only two choices: one is to be a moderate and peaceful independent woman, and the other is to take some extreme routes."

“But no matter which route it is, it is very unfriendly to women because there are too many women on this track.”

"A few years ago, two female members of the Alliance House of Representatives made a scene during a meeting and stripped naked in public."

"The House of Representatives is a place where people debate and distribute benefits. When others fail to meet their proposals, they start to make trouble."

“And it’s impossible for me to publicly support anyone. Although everyone knows that I am the controller of March Star, I will not give this evidence to anyone.” Zhang Bozhen said again.

"Thank you, Fourth Brother. I know how to answer now." Yang Bo nodded.

"Do you want to learn ancient martial arts?" Zhang Bozhen asked Yang Bo.
