Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1545 Confusing right and wrong

Wogelbaum never expected that after his retirement he would be rehired by Water Company to study Compound No. 6.

Are you guys still human? I’m retired!

But his protests were in vain, as Water Company was now in a desperate situation and would not care about his personal opinion.

Captain America and the White Emperor were able to suppress Homelander, who had always been regarded as invincible. This was undoubtedly an extremely dangerous signal in the eyes of President Stan.

Homelander, the marketing core carefully created by Vought Corporation, his power and mystery have always been the key to the company's attracting attention and making profits.

However, if someone were able to surpass him, or even defeat him in public, then Homelander's image would be greatly reduced, and the brand value of Vought Corporation would also be severely impacted.

What's more, at this time, Homelander is facing an unprecedented predicament. He is about to go to the Black Chapter Department to confess his crime and surrender, and then step into the cold cell.

This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Water Company.

For a long time, they may not be able to have a superhero as charismatic and influential as Homelander as the company's face.

At this critical moment of life and death, Dr. Vogelbaum had no choice but to return to his old job and devote himself once again to the research and development of Compound No. 6.

However, this task is arduous and complex.

Even if he could develop new compounds, there was no guarantee that he would be able to create a psychic more powerful than Homelander.

After all, the development of superpowers is related to many factors such as individual genes, physique and environmental factors. This is an area full of uncertainty.

President Stan knew this very well, so he did not give up on Homelander who had obediently confessed his guilt.

In his view, Homelander remains one of Vought's most valuable assets.

Therefore, after Homelander came forward and confessed his guilt, Stan immediately mobilized all the resources of Vought Company to fight the lawsuit for him.

This lawsuit is not only about saving Homelander, but also about saving the future of Vought.

The legal department and public relations department of Water Company, these two pillars, demonstrated their immeasurable value at the critical moment. The huge amount of funds invested every year was like a precise investment at this moment, returning with priceless strategic advantages.

Faced with the thorny situation of the Homelander case, they responded quickly, worked together, and developed a set of watertight response strategies, trying to turn the crisis into an opportunity.

First, the legal and public relations departments conducted an in-depth analysis of the motherland’s case, cutting out the core of the problem with the precision of a surgeon.

The first attack on the Kurozhang tribe could not be admitted in any way to be the work of our countrymen.

Although this fact is well known within Water Company, the Black Chapter Department and even the people of Homeland themselves, on the scale of law, evidence is the decisive weight.

The only evidence the Black Chapter Department has is a surveillance video, which records Homelander's crazy behavior of breaking into the prison, destroying the Black Chapter Department building, and his shocking battle with Captain America.

In the video, although the Homelanders were powerful, they were ultimately defeated and fled in panic, and were not captured on the spot.

According to America's strict judicial procedures, in the absence of direct evidence, any accusation will be weak and no suspect will be convicted.

The legal department is well aware of this. However, for superstars and public figures like my countryman, it is obviously not enough to rely on legal loopholes to evade responsibility.

The public relations department is well aware that the power of public opinion is equally strong and can sometimes even influence legal decisions.

So they carefully planned a public opinion counterattack aimed at diverting the public's attention away from their own people and onto another fictitious "scapegoat."

They claimed that the one who attacked the Black Chapter was not a real Homelander, but a super criminal with superb shapeshifting abilities.

This criminal was extremely cunning. He used his abilities to disguise himself as a native of his country and attempted to frame innocent natives.

And the real motherland, on that night, was gathering with hundreds of fanatical fans, enjoying the glory and applause that belonged to him.

To prove this, they carefully prepared a series of alibis and witnesses, including group photos of fans, video records and testimonies of on-site staff, in an attempt to construct an impeccable "perfect alibi" chain of evidence.

Anyway, as long as they can fool people, the success rate is very high. In addition, Water Company is rich and powerful, and they have bribed all kinds of people and established connections with superiors and subordinates. This attack has a success rate of more than 90%.

However, in the second attack on Chang Wei, the head of the Black Chapter Department, this time, the Homelander did not escape again. He was arrested on the spot. The evidence was irrefutable and he could no longer argue.

Vought's legal department had to go all out to provide Homelander with a final defense.

The difficulty of this defense is unprecedented.

Therefore, they began to look for loopholes in the procedure, trying to question the legality and authenticity of the evidence of the Black Chapter Department through technical means, witness testimony and other details.

At the same time, they are also actively looking for other possible defense paths, striving to obtain the most favorable verdict for their fellow countrymen.

And this group of lawyers were really capable. They changed Homelander's motive from deliberately attacking the Minister of the Black Chapter Department to the fact that Homelander was actually chasing the super criminal who could transform that night!

The super criminal transformed himself into the appearance of Chang Wei, the Minister of the Black Chapter Department, and lured Homelander over, which provided the motive for Homelander to attack the Minister of the Black Chapter Department.

They are not only proficient in legal provisions, but also good at using multidisciplinary knowledge such as psychology and sociology to gain insight into human weaknesses and thus develop the most effective defense strategies.

Thanks to their efforts, the case of Homelander gradually took a turn for the better.

They cleverly proposed that Homelander was actually hunting down the shapeshifting super criminal that night.

This criminal used his ability to transform himself into the appearance of Chang Wei, the Minister of the Black Chapter Department, and deliberately lured the Homelanders to go there, thus creating the illusion that the Homelanders were attacking the Minister of the Black Chapter Department.

To prove this, they collected a large amount of indirect evidence, including clues left by criminals, testimony from eyewitnesses, and the movements of their fellow countrymen.

Although these evidences are not sufficient to directly prove the innocence of the motherland, they are enough to make the public doubt the case and question the accusations of the Black Chapter Department.

At the same time, the public relations department was also busy.

They used the power of the media to actively spread this "new discovery" and tried to guide public opinion in a direction that was beneficial to their motherland.
