Chapter 136 The meeting ends
Feng Ling and Pei Xianjue did not need to speak in the second half of the meeting, but it was not as boring as expected.

Feng Ling listened with great interest and found it very interesting.

Everyone expressed their own opinions, and the common direction was naturally to safeguard the rights and interests of all mankind. However, when it came to different positions, everyone would do their best to seek their own interests in their speeches and engage in some harmless tests, competitions, and tugs of war.

This process was extremely energy-consuming and time-consuming. The meeting lasted until 11 o'clock in the evening and there was still no sign of ending.

Once people are tired, they tend to compromise.

Many of the subsequent topics and plans, once proposed, were met with almost no opposition, and all received responses and were successfully passed.

It wasn't until the topic of "hunters becoming universal" was raised that the atmosphere in the meeting room began to become subtle.

Captain Shen of Yuquan City was obviously in favor of the move. He said at the meeting: "This is actually very easy to consider. It's like if a group of bandits came to our home, we could choose to take up arms to protect our family, or we could choose to distribute the weapons to each family member so that everyone has the ability to protect themselves."

"Captain Shen, isn't this analogy inappropriate?" Someone objected. "Cards are different from weapons. Weapons can be taken back at any time after being sent out, but once a card is absorbed by the human body, it cannot be taken back. We must consider the potential risks that may arise later."

Shen Mu smiled and said, "The metaphor is inappropriate, but the plan itself is worth exploring. Think about it. In the past, we could only take taxis, but later we had online ride-hailing services. In addition, in the annual flood rescue operations, both official forces and private rescue organizations participated. Therefore, this hunter plan can be regarded as a supplement to the supervision system. You may wish to imagine it——"

Shen Mu looked around, raised his cell phone and shook it gently.

"If a citizen is attacked by an alien species and calls the police for help, but the inspectors are short of manpower, the operator can only send out a special attack team to handle the situation. However, the casualty rate of the special attack team has been high in the past six months, and they are also short of manpower. What if we have another hunter system? Our operators can notify the hunter closest to the caller at the first time. In this way, the safety of the citizens is guaranteed and the pressure on the inspectors can be relieved. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

There was a lot of noise and discussion in the meeting room.

Someone else said, "But hunters don't go through systematic combat training and ideological learning like inspectors do. Hunters' personal qualities vary. Who can guarantee that these hunters will actively participate in the fight against alien species instead of using the power of cards to commit crimes?"

"Speaking of which... last month, a person with special abilities sneaked into a gold shop to steal. We thought he was an alien, but he confessed that he was a human after being captured. In order to avoid causing public opinion, we can only announce that the perpetrator is an alien. It can be seen that the Hunter Plan is a double-edged sword. Whether it will make our society more stable or more chaotic is hard to say at the moment."

"I agree with Captain Shen's opinion on this. Regardless of whether the Hunter Plan is implemented or not, these people holding cards will not disappear. Some of them obtained the cards by killing pollutants, some obtained the cards by killing aliens, and some obtained the cards by accident when they encountered the corpses of aliens. They live in various places in this society. If there is a system that can control them and give them the opportunity to receive training and learning, the social effect brought about in the end will definitely be more beneficial than harmful."

The voices of support gradually increased, while the voices of opposition gradually decreased.

But there is another voice, called the silent majority.

Feng Ling observed and found that at least 60% of the people at the conference table did not speak, for example, the old man who was called the admiral did not speak.

Just as she was thinking this, the old general raised his eyes and looked at her with extremely sharp gaze.

But he was not looking at her, but at Pei Xianjue beside her.

"Regarding this point...why don't we listen to Deputy Captain Pei's thoughts?" The old general asked Pei Xianjue with a kind smile, "Deputy Captain Pei, do you think the Hunter Program should be further promoted?"

Pei Xianjue immediately replied: "Admiral, I understand Captain Shen's anxiety very well. Alien malicious incidents are becoming more and more frequent, and each branch is facing a shortage of personnel. The universalization of hunters can indeed alleviate this situation to a certain extent, but I think it is not yet the right time to advance. The hunter system has just been launched, so we might as well wait and see. I believe that after running for a period of time, this system will gradually mature and provide confidence for the next step of advancement."

Shen Mu took a deep look at Pei Xianjue, and after she finished speaking, he continued, "Then, let's put this proposal on hold today. Let's hold a meeting to discuss it after the Hunter System has been running for a month."

This is the last topic for today.

Shen Mu said some polite words and then announced the end of the meeting. Feng Ling silently looked at the time, it was almost midnight.

The big shots left the meeting room one after another, and the waiters outside led them to the restaurant for dinner.

The only things you can eat at this time are midnight snacks, which are all easily digestible soups with light taste.

Feng Ling was not very interested in this kind of food. After walking around the buffet restaurant, she prepared to go back to sleep.

When Pei Xianjue saw Feng Ling leaving, he also wanted to go with her, but he felt that this was an opportunity to chat and make friends with other people, so after hesitating for a moment, he stayed.

…………

Many people are paying attention to Feng Ling.

A civilian hunter with no background is a very suitable target to be won over.

As Feng Ling walked out of the door of the restaurant inside the Supervisory Building, he felt several eyes focused on him.

She glanced back.

Someone in the restaurant smiled at her and seemed to want to come over to greet her, and there was more than one person.

Feng Ling has a bit of a headache.

Or maybe you can just pretend you didn’t see it and go back to your room?
Just as she was thinking this, Su Yuqing suddenly came over and waved to her, "...Feng Ling."

Because of Su Yuqing's appearance, those who were originally preparing to come over stopped in their tracks. Perhaps they felt that the timing was not right, so they gave up on chatting her up.

The smile on Feng Ling's face became more genuine, "Captain Su, why didn't you go for supper?"

"Not too hungry." Su Yuqing asked, "Are you going back to Qingjiang tonight? Or are you staying in Yuquan City for a few days before leaving?"

"I'll probably have to rest for a few days. I rented an RV when I came here, but it's too small now. My two cubs have grown up and can't fit in it... By the way, you haven't seen them grow up yet, right?" Feng Ling patted Su Yuqing on the back and said with a smile, "Come on, let's go to my room and show you. I guarantee you'll be shocked~"

Su Yuqing felt pain in his back. As he walked, he said, "I saw the photo on the news. It is indeed very big... I came here to ask you, how do you consider the accommodation issue after returning to Qingjiang City? It may be a bit problematic to keep a large pet in an apartment..."

Feng Ling paused and turned to look at Su Yuqing: "You mean... I can't live in your apartment anymore?"

Su Landlord Yu Qing forced a smile and said, "I'm afraid not."

Feng Ling: “…………”

Sad news.

I have a headache today! Maybe I got air-conditioning sickness! No inspiration at all! I managed to squeeze out a chapter with great difficulty! I can’t squeeze out any more!!! I’ll try harder tomorrow!!! (Good night everyone)
