Chapter 3636: There's fun to be had

Those Japanese scientific expedition team members who had been frozen by the extreme cold, upon entering an indoor space with a room temperature of over twenty degrees, experienced a temperature difference of over eighty degrees, causing their skin to instantly turn red, as if they had just been scalded by boiling water.

This itching and pain was several degrees worse than when they were exposed outside, to the extent that everyone was frantically scratching themselves all over, even scratching until their bodies were covered in wounds.

The U. S. military commander also did not expect that in just a few tens of seconds, he could actually torture them into this state, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried, wondering if he had gone a bit too far? After all, if this were to escalate into a protest from Japan later on, and the White House felt public opinion pressure, it would likely end up pushing him out to take the blame.

But after thinking it over, he thought, whatever, the more he looked at this matter, the stranger it seemed; why not let these Japanese people speak up? Maybe if they don't, he might miss some big secret, and if there really is some extremely valuable clue here, he might just be able to earn a great merit.

Anyway, these Japanese people are all going to be transferred to McMurdo Scientific Station; the injured ones can simply be detained for a while, and released when their injuries heal. If they complain to the Japanese government, this side can simply deny it, after all, there are plenty of ways to muddy the waters.

So he ordered people to continue intensifying the interrogation of these Japanese scientific expedition team members, forcing them to issue withdrawal orders to all their companions outside.

But if the intensity of interrogation on these Japanese scientific expedition team members is increased further, it might very well cost lives. Their resilience far exceeds their expectations; even though they have already been tormented into this state, they still show no sign of loosening up.

The U. S. military commander could not understand how this kind of torture, even many special-trained agents and special forces would find hard to endure, why these ordinary scientific expedition team members without any military experience are completely unafraid?

At this moment, a subordinate ran over to ask for instructions: "Commander, these people don't know why, but they all have a very strong sense of belief; our regular interrogation methods simply cannot destroy this belief of theirs, really we have no idea where to start!"

The U. S. military commander said coldly: "I just don't believe there is any belief in this world that cannot be destroyed, wasn't it just that the time they spent outside freezing was too short?! Keep increasing the intensity for me!"

A subordinate said with some concern: "If we continue to increase the intensity, we might very well cause deaths, their skin has already begun to ulcerate! It seems as if they have been scalded by boiling water, if they go out to freeze again, I'm afraid their entire skin might not be able to hold up!"

The U. S. military commander was shocked, he also did not know that the weather of minus sixty degrees had such lethal power, if these people were really given frostbite to the point of being unrecognizable, this might really not be easy to explain.

For a while he was somewhat worried, according to this trend, wanting to gather the scattered Japanese people from outside back in, I'm afraid it won't be that easy, if it startles the snake, these people might very well destroy the evidence.

Now there are two choices: one is to wait by the tree for a rabbit, everyone hides here, waiting for these Japanese scientific expedition team members to return one by one for supplies, this will definitely work, but the time might be longer.

As for the second choice, it is to take the initiative, dispatch troops to scatter out, capture all those Japanese scientific expedition team members who are working outside, this way the time should be much shorter, but for the soldiers it is a test, after all, they have to divide forces into multiple routes, and even have to pursue for several hundred or even thousands of kilometers.

After thinking back and forth, he decided to report to the White House, give the White House two options, and see which one they choose.

So he immediately used the satellite phone to report the specific situation to the White House.

At this moment, the White House became increasingly curious about the secret of the Japanese scientific expedition team members; they couldn't understand what secret Antarctica hides that could make these people guard it with their lives? Even the secret of Epstein doesn't seem to have been kept to this extent?

The more this is the case, the more they can't wait to find out, so the White House immediately ordered them not to sit and wait for death, but to immediately dispatch troops to go capture, and upon capture, immediately conduct surprise interrogations on personnel and seal equipment, with equipment waiting for their technical experts to come extract data.

After receiving the White House order, the U. S. military commander immediately began to regroup the troops, and started tracking along the traces left on the ice sheet when the scientific expedition team vehicles set out.

Ye Chen detoured past their armored vehicles after they had all set off, then quietly left the Japanese Showa Scientific Station, but he did not rush to return to the European scientific station first; instead, he used the satellite network to send the video of the U. S. military torturing the Japanese scientific expedition team in extreme cold weather, as well as the video of the U. S. Navy SEALs boarding the armored vehicles and leaving the scientific station, to Li Yalin.

Afterwards, he called Li Yalin and instructed: "Detective Li, you let the AI model scrape the contact information of various big internet celebrities on the Japanese internet, preferably the email addresses for gathering materials, then use a secure channel to send these two videos to them."

Ye Chen's reason for sending the videos to those Japanese internet celebrities is because he thinks the Japanese government may not have the backbone to stand up to the United States head-on, and if this video is given to them, they might just cover it up.

But the public is different.

The public has no so-called big-picture perspective, and moreover, this matter does not involve their own interests, so they are mostly emotion-driven, these videos will definitely make them angry, so they are also very likely to choose to expose them.

Moreover, internet celebrities themselves regard traffic as life, being able to get such explosive videos is equivalent to entertainment bloggers getting the most explosive top-tier celebrity gossip evidence, they will definitely release it immediately to gain traffic.

Moreover, Ye Chen did not just give it to one internet celebrity, which is equivalent to having multiple backups; even if internet celebrity A does not choose to expose, internet celebrities B, C, and even all the way to Z will compete to expose it.

Internet celebrities themselves also have massive fan bases, so as long as they put the videos out, they will immediately spread throughout the entire Japanese internet.

By then, the Japanese public will be emotionally stirred up, and this matter will be fun to watch.

Moreover, once Japanese netizens start condemning, this matter will definitely also trigger global attention, and by then, anyone with a certain sense of justice will probably condemn the U. S. military's actions, especially since they actually violated the Antarctic Treaty and sent troops into Antarctica, which will definitely also draw accusations from countries around the world.

……

At this time, it was morning in Japan.

Many internet celebrities who make a living by shooting videos were at this moment brainstorming content for their videos.

Now, homogenized content on the internet is too abundant, plagiarism and imitation are also very common, top internet celebrities have now increased their investment in content planning, wanting to find more special topics and entry points to attract fans' attention.

Many internet celebrities have also opened submission email boxes for materials, and even offered generous remuneration, once materials are accepted, they will fulfill their promises to the submitter.

Just when many internet celebrities and teams were racking their brains for today's work content, suddenly an email arrived in their inbox, the email subject was extremely shocking: The United States violated the Antarctic Treaty, secretly dispatched troops to Antarctica, controlled the Japanese Showa Scientific Station, arrested and tortured Japanese scientific expedition team members!
