Soon, the residents of G City's underground city were gathered.
Those in residential areas were called to gather in their respective corridors.
In work areas, whether working, attending school, or shopping, everyone was called to gather in the canteens, auditoriums, squares, and playgrounds.
Even in the hospital in the number three simulation cabin on the second level, the medical team from Jiang City led by Xue Keyue, and the research team in the research cabin on the third level, nominally visiting G City temporarily, led by Song Pinxuan, were gathered together.
In front of everyone was a television.
On the television, Fan Pangzi was spewing nonsense.
His words were the same as when he was on the surface, accusing the "Universal Merchant Boss Li" of framing him, twisting facts, and claiming that the "Apocalypse Mall" deliberately withheld supplies from the G City shelter to seize the land and illegally build the underground city, instigating riots in the G City shelter, leading to its collapse.
The underground city residents, who knew the truth and were grateful, were furious upon hearing these words.
Fortunately, Fan Pangzi was speaking on television, and there were not many viewers present.
Otherwise, he would have been beaten by now.
Following this, Fan Pangzi issued a threat, demanding that the residents of G City's underground city voluntarily hand over the underground city and actively cooperate with the Haicheng Governor's Mansion to eliminate the criminal group "Apocalypse Mall," otherwise, after the Haicheng army eliminated "Apocalypse Mall," everyone currently in the underground city would be sent to construction sites to expand the underground city.
Everyone understood the situation of official underground city construction sites.
The official underground city construction was vast, but it lacked sufficient wireless brain-controlled robots, nor did it have many people with implanted brain-computer interfaces on their heads to control the construction, unlike when G City built its underground city.
Official underground city construction relied on manual on-site labor.
Whether it was the extreme cold season or the extreme heat season, the casualty rate of underground city workers was terrifying, almost a sure death.
Under such circumstances, coupled with the prestige accumulated by the "official" title before the apocalypse, many people began to feel apprehensive.
After Fan Pangzi finished speaking, Tang Guo walked onto the stage and spoke directly to the camera:
"Now, please take out your mobile phones and vote on our information platform."
The information platform for the underground city had already been established at the F City base, managed by the information center when it was on the surface in the G City base, used for coordinating the delivery of ordered supplies and other services.
After arriving at the underground city, the information platform's role became even greater.
In the underground city, the personal information, work information, and points account information of all residents were all contained within it.
Even without going to the exchange in the number four simulation cabin, one could order various supplies, pay utility bills, and so on through the information platform.
Therefore, it was a software present on everyone's mobile phones in the underground city.
As Tang Guo instructed, people took out their phones and opened the information platform, and a pop-up window appeared.
It read: Your fate, decided by you!
Clicking on the pop-up window, a very simple interface appeared on the phone screen.
At the top was a sentence: [Do you agree to hand over the G City underground city unconditionally?]
Below were three buttons – Agree, Abstain, Oppose.
However, on the voting interfaces of the medical and research personnel from Jiang City, an additional line of small red text was present.
[The Haicheng Governor's Mansion may be controlled by the Saint Light Organization's Z-country Branch. Please vote with caution!]
And as Tang Guo spoke these words after stepping onto the stage, wireless brain-controlled robots from the fourth level arrived at the gathering places of the underground city residents.
Their purpose was to remind people as they began to vote:
"Vote according to your true feelings, do not be influenced by how others around you vote!"
Under their supervision, everyone cast their votes truthfully.
Those angered by Fan Pangzi, especially those who had escaped from the G City shelter, undoubtedly chose "Oppose."
Those who feared official punishment chose "Agree."
Many others, fearing official punishment and disliking Fan Pangzi's distortion of facts, chose "Abstain."
For most people, regardless of their choice, after confirmation, the phone pop-up would display: [Voting successful!]
Only the medical and research personnel from Jiang City, those with the small red text warning on their phone interfaces, were different from others.
If they chose "Agree," the phone pop-up would display: [Voting failed! Please vote again.]
As long as they kept clicking "Agree," the "Voting failed" prompt would continuously appear.
Only when they chose "Abstain" or "Oppose" would it display "Voting successful."
However, the list of those among them who chose "Agree" had already been collected in the backend.
These individuals would be sent back to Jiang City.
Soon, the voting ended.
Those who did not successfully vote within the allotted time were all deemed to have abstained.
Final vote count: Agree 2283 votes, Abstain 46909 votes, Oppose 70390 votes!
