489. Parliamentary Murder Case
"It seems that you have more potential to become Sith than Edra..." Tang Xiao smiled slightly, "How did you think of killing Vandalor?"
"This is your request, and he is no longer of use to me, just a bounty Hunter. If I hadn't been desperate at that time, I wouldn't have followed him, and he just coveted my body. I just hope that you won't be like him in the future, otherwise, I will abandon you without hesitation." Sefrans-Tann smiled coldly.
"Very smart, but... it sounds like you want to hand over your body to me?" Tang Xiao said with a smile.
"If you think it is necessary, you can do it at any time. For me, the body is just a tool. If you want it, remember to tell me. Humans and Chiss are actually from the same source, and there is almost no difference in genes, as you know." Sefrans-Tann gave Tang Xiao an ambiguous look, and turned around to leave.
"Just in time, I'm going to Luks Major Planet and sign an agreement with Count Dooku. You can go with me. On the way, I will teach you some preliminary "the Force uses skills." Tang Xiao said, "In addition, I now have three fleets, Fleet C is my queen, and my main job is to defend Endor system. The commander of Fleet A is Matt-Hona, and you will become the commander of Fleet B and now my. Commander of the Navy Igor-Zavalov is already old, so the new Commander of the Navy will be born between the two of you, don't let me down."
22BBY, Galactic Republic Capital Coruscant, Republic Senate Building.
Among the always bustling Republic Senate Building, there was silence today. Today, the parliament did not meet. The congressmen were all hiding in their offices, keeping silent...
Hundreds of Galactic Republic Public Security Department security ships gathered around Republic Senate Building, and thousands of police officers searched the building. Chancellor's Guard wearing red armor also surrounded Sheev-Palpatine's office.
The reason why the situation is so tense is that Galactic Republic Senate, who has always been safe, actually had a murder! Without warning, a violent explosion occurred in the corner of Republic Senate Building! Five MPs, including Malastare's parliamentary assistant Ax-Moi, were killed, and the murderer could not be found at all, and they didn't even know how the murderer got in!
As soon as the murder case came out, the entire Galactic Republic was shocked, and for some unknown reason, the Galactic Republic media, which had always been silent about such news in the past, seemed to have received first-hand information this time, and reported the murder case vigorously. For a time, everyone in the entire Coruscant was in danger.
This was especially true for those congressmen. They were horrified to discover that they were not safe in Coruscant either!
Speaker Sheev-Palpatine immediately stood up to maintain order and ordered Security Bureau to solve the case within a time limit.
However, the murderer has never been found, and even some terrorist organizations that are usually very active have not come out to claim responsibility for the murder, which makes the case even more confusing.
At this time, many people began to speculate whether the murder was committed by Separatists. As soon as this speculation came out, it spread immediately. Soon, almost everyone began to believe that it was Separatists who murdered these congressmen!
At this moment, the terror of Separatists once again shrouded the sky of Coruscant. Only then did those fat-headed congressmen realize that the war was so close to them!
For a time, a wave of condemnation of Separatist Movement once again set off in the parliament. This time, members began to seriously discuss how to quell this crisis.
This is a complete irony. Separatist Movement has been around for a full 10 years. During this period, countless civilians and planets have been affected. However, these congressmen still hold on to their power and still live a life of feasting and feasting in Coruscant. And it's only now, after the murder happened, that they really thought about how to solve this problem. In the end, they were just worried that their luxurious life would be affected.
Malastare's MPs Ainlee-Tim found Francis-Underwood worriedly and told him that Ax Moi's death was likely to affect Malastare's position is because Ax-Moy exists as a bridge between Gran and Dagg on their planet. Once he dies, the relationship between Dagg and Gran will become increasingly tense.
Francis-Underwood just told Ainlee-Tim that the day was approaching and they did not have much time in the parliament.
The murder accelerated the pace of reorganization of the army in the parliament and caused a crisis of confidence in Jedi Order.
Malastare member Ainlee-Tim, who believed that the murder disrupted his diplomatic plans, publicly accused Jedi Order of his incompetence and inaction in parliament. He linked the murder to what happened in Eriadu Commerce Summit 11 years ago, saying that this was a manifestation of Jedi Order's incompetence.
He started this, and many other congressmen followed suit, accusing Jedi Order of being unable to protect Galactic Republic.
So since Jedi Order cannot protect Galactic Republic, Galactic Republic can only protect itself.
Vice Chancellor Mas-Amedda, who has become a loyal lackey of Palpatine, proposed for deliberation, and "Military Creation Act" was once again put on the agenda, and it is planned to hold a meeting for discussion in the near future.
That evening, Speaker Sheev-Palpatine visited Jedi Temple again and had an in-depth conversation with Mace-Master Windu.
"I'm afraid we have to think about this possibility, Master Windu... war." Palpatine said with a worried look on his face and a long sigh, "Separatists's forces are getting more and more crazy, and among the members of the parliament Some of the remarks against Jedi Order are also dangerous. I warned Ainlee-Tim because no one can blame our guardians at any time."
"I am very grateful for your trust, His Excellency the Chancellor." Master Windu is still very grateful for this, and the former speaker Phineas-Valorum is in Eriadu Commerce Summit After the incident, the approach was different from directly blaming Jedi Order. Palpatine really helped them speak in the parliament, and Master Windu also saw this.
"I will make diplomatic efforts again in the near future. I still hope to have face-to-face negotiations with Count Dooku. I wonder if Jedi Order can facilitate this?" Palpatine asked.
"I'm afraid not, His Excellency the Chancellor. Count Dooku has also cut off all contact with our Jedi Order. But I will continue to try. But regarding the current situation, are you really preparing for war?"
"I must do this, Master Windu. I absolutely cannot tolerate Galactic Republic, which has existed for 25,000 years, being split into two. I have never given up my efforts for peace, but when things have developed to the point where they are now, I must also start preparing for war."
"If you really get to this point, you must realize that we do not have enough Jedi Knight to protect Galactic Republic. We are defenders of peace, but we are not soldiers." Master Windu said.
"This is also what I am considering - setting up an army to help you." Palpatine said.
"Use the army to help us..." Master Windu thought about these meaningful words and said nothing more for a long time.
