Thus, numerous rumors and hearsay rose like dust in the wind.
Things like Coast wanting to use the Paradise System and human-machine interface to directly demand each family open their patents, Coast demanding investments for building factories in New Spring, or even that Coast wants to trick everyone into a trap and then slaughter them mercilessly!
Among them were some probes made by Old Gou, some demands proposed by Ji Jue, and others were simply sour grapes from those who couldn't get their fill.
And some of them were just downright absurd.
"They say Director Ji has quite the appetite, demanding each family offer up a pair of virgin boys and girls!"
"What the heck? Brother, do you even realize what you're saying!"
"Isn't it obvious? Just look at the Tong family, look at the Lou family... Heard the Lou family's young master is still locked in the basement of Coast Technology every day, no one knows how much he's suffered, almost looks inhuman!"
