A Unique Brain Circuit

Chapter 86 A Unique Brain Circuit (4th update/4th update)

There was a set of photos on the screen.

In the photo, five chubby African American men and women, wearing masks, rush onto the field during halftime cheerleading.

They were holding different things in their hands.

Hand-held banners with the HSUS logo;

There were also protest signs that read: "Ford is murdering the spirits of the Great Lakes," "HSUS and the sturgeon will live or die together," and "Oppose Ford, protect the sturgeon."

"Thick~ceremony~crab~"

Jerry's expression froze.

Others also began searching for related news.

After reading it, an eerie silence fell over the office.

After a long while, someone couldn't help but say, "This incident will definitely be in tomorrow's morning paper."

"If what Clarissa said is true, and if there really are forces on Wall Street planning to target us, then it's very likely that it won't just be our local newspaper and sports newspaper that's in the news—"

He only said half of what he meant, but everyone could understand what he said afterward.

That's why Jerry, who had been listening to their complaints all night, finally found an opportunity to lash out.

Still complaining?

"Are you still going to see a movie with your girlfriend?"

"I told you during the day that Clarissa was recommended to us by higher-ups. Some information was directly passed on to them through her father's connections!"

"If they dare to do that, they must have confidence in their source!"

"Why is she so untrustworthy in your mouths?"

Jerry got more and more into his rant. He seemed to be defending Clarissa, but he was actually venting his frustrations about the work pressure that might come his way.

At the same time, he was also using the opportunity to reprimand his subordinates and consolidate his authority as a leader.

After all, judging from the employees' behavior today, they didn't seem to respect him as their leader much.

This is a good thing for Bane and Clarissa.

Feeling disrespected, Jerry is likely to force Naklarissa's proposal in order to maintain his authority and demonstrate that he is the leader of the public relations department.

And so, Jerry reprimanded his subordinates for more than ten minutes, bringing up old grievances, and another video of it was uploaded to the internet.

The person who filmed the video was also an old acquaintance, Mike from the Detroit Free Press.

Tessa, the Black mother, was introduced to Ben by Mike.

Therefore, without Bane's intervention, Tessa contacted Mike directly in her own name, telling him that there was big news.

Mike was quite capable; he managed to block the police car that came to arrest the streaking protesters and conduct a brief interview with them.

Furthermore, he almost seamlessly uploaded the interview to YouTube on his laptop on the spot.

After uploading it, he started posting links to the video in the news comments section, on Digg, and on his personal Twitter and blog.

"For the sake of the lake sturgeon, we at HSUS are not afraid of Ford's retaliation!"

"Ford must be held responsible for the lake sturgeon's habitat; they are the killers!"

In the interview video, the chubby protesters repeatedly shouted these two sentences, no matter what they were asked, they would only say these two sentences.

numb.

Jerry and the others were truly dumbfounded.

What is Ford's retaliation?

Who exactly said they wanted to take revenge on you?

Will this video be on TV tomorrow morning?

Just then, his phone rang. Seeing the name Ford on the caller ID, Jerry started sweating.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Conrad and others, who were still preparing for tomorrow's protest, also saw this news.

As he watched, Conrad's expression turned grim.

But only he looked grim; everyone else looked as if they'd celebrated the New Year. The reason was simple: Conrad was against contacting HSUS.

Although he is a plagiarist, he still has basic insight and believes that the focus should be on "lead poisoning girls".

Instead of introducing some damn lake sturgeon to distract the public.

Unfortunately, they were working together as a team of three associations, and the members of the other associations couldn't just watch him achieve success on his own.

Everyone wanted to show off their ingenuity, which led to the current solution. And because of this, when people saw the news of the streaking protest at HSUS Arena, they immediately began to ridicule Conrad.

"Conrad, what did I tell you? Choosing to partner with HSUS was a stroke of genius. Your previous plan was incomplete and wouldn't have achieved the same effect!"

"That's right, look at them, how fast they move, how great the results!"

"That's amazing. No wonder it's the largest NGO in the country with so many branches."

"Tonight's events will definitely make it into tomorrow's major newspapers and even television stations. With this incident building momentum, our protest tomorrow will be far more powerful than ever before!"

"It's done! It's really done now!"

As everyone got more and more excited, Conrad began to doubt his own persistence.

HSUS members in Detroit were also suspicious; they were completely baffled.

"Can anyone tell me whose subordinates these people are?"

"Never seen them before, don't know them, maybe they're local animal welfare volunteers from Detroit?"

"Can anyone tell me who organized this streaking protest? Why haven't I received any information about it as the head of HSUS's Michigan branch?"

"Could it be a spontaneous act, or perhaps arranged by those three cooperating associations?"

"Call them and ask why they acted without informing us," the female manager said, frowning.

However, after saying that, she immediately changed her mind: "Never mind, no need to ask anymore, this operation is in our best interest."

"Should we go to the police station near the stadium and bail these guys out, making them heroes of HSUS!" someone suddenly suggested.

Upon hearing this, the female manager's eyes lit up.

But the other staff members who were preparing looked rather grim.

How many of them are heroes?

What about us?

Two hours later————

At Bane's home, while making a phone call, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of tea.

He asked Tessa on the other end of the phone incredulously, "You mean, those people were bailed out by Lawrence, the local head of HSUS?"

"Yes, they were very quick. I had just arrived with my lawyer when they had already contacted the police station by phone."

"That's good. With the bail record, it further confirms that those people are their people." Bane really didn't know what to say.

Animal rights activists really do have a very unique way of thinking!

As for whether those five people would be turned by the people protected by the authorities, Bane wasn't worried at all.

Because all these five people knew was that they could get $800 by participating in the protest.

From their perspective, they were genuinely protesting for HSUS; there was no conspiracy or trickery involved.

Moreover, apart from Reg and Tessa, the other members of the Rat Gang genuinely believed that they were about to carry out a protest by throwing sewage at the art museum.

They didn't realize that this was just rhetoric to incite others.

"We're currently at their base, a hotel. I think now is the best opportunity to incite them," Tessa continued, covering the phone.

"You decide what to do."

"Okay, I'll hang up now," Tessa said, hanging up the phone.

She then returned to a large suite.

Inside the suite, more than 20 HSUS members were either sitting or standing.

Meanwhile, the five warriors were talking animatedly to Lawrence, the female manager.

"This is just the beginning, Lawrence."

"We have many more plans in the future!"

"We plan to take sewage and sludge from the Rouge River to Ford's luxury car showroom in the city center and protest by splashing it with filth."

"Not only that, we also plan to dredge a large number of dead fish from the Rouge River and dump them onto the city government building."

"Furthermore, we plan to conduct street sweeps and protests. Whenever we find a Ford car on the roadside, we will spray fish-shaped patterns on the car doors."

"Through this action, we want all Ford owners to realize what the brand they support is actually doing!"

"besides----"

Lawrence was dumbfounded by the dozen or so proposals presented.

She couldn't help but interrupt, "Excuse me, but which organization do you belong to? Who planned these protests?"

Tessa, who had been silent the whole time, seized the opportunity to interject, "We are volunteers from the River Rat Gang, employed by HSUS."

"I am the local manager of HSUS. I have never employed you. Also, what is the River Rat Gang? Is it a gang?"

"That's right, we're the biggest gang in southwest Detroit!" Tessa said proudly.

"My God, I'm so moved! Even gangs know to protect lake sturgeon, while those shameless scoundrels with no morals keep harming animals!" Lawrence suddenly covered his mouth.

"I don't agree with you. What do you mean by saying that even gangs know to protect lake sturgeon?" Tessa feigned displeasure.

Without waiting for a reply, she continued, "Our leader said that only we are the true animal rights heroes; no one else would dare to implement these radical and noble plans like we do!"

Upon hearing this, the other staff members, who were already unhappy, immediately exploded.

One of them jumped to his feet: "Ma'am, I think you need to get your boss to take back what he said. He has no idea how determined we are to protect the lake sturgeon!"

"What he doesn't know is that the proposals you put forward are perfectly ordinary here, and can't be considered radical at all!"
