Chapter 246: On the Crest of the Angry Waves
ยท
Yuan Huang heard clearly.
Understood.
But didn't get it!
"Huh?" It took several seconds for his head to come back to his senses from the blank space, and he pointed at himself and opened his mouth for a long time, and finally only one word popped out of this gathering thousands of doubts. Even if the president of your family is dead, why do you let me, as an outsider, replace you? Why are you eating!
Xiao Yuxiang fell into deep thought, the Teleportation Emperor had a wry smile on his face, and Yuji showed an unsurprising expression.
"To tell you the truth, the president of my family was assassinated last night, along with several others. After learning from the pain, we thought of you, Mr. Yuanhuang! Now this situation is very special and extremely sensitive, all the staff of our newspaper have put down all their work and went to the northwest commercial city to join the torrent of people's demonstrations and protests, the purpose is very simple, that is, to ask the murder suspect Yu Hanbed for an explanation! โ
"How many others"?
Yuan Huang touched his chin, he couldn't remember that he had given an order to the elite spiders to kill other people as well, shouldn't he just wipe out the president?
Assassination or something...... Alas. Even if I didn't get out of the horse, I was still regarded as the number one suspect in the end, and it seems that I am not suitable for any assassination, so I shouldn't have worried too much about it in the first place, and I killed the president on the spot, and it was a hundred!
Xiao Yuka asked, "Why don't you take over as president?" You're part of the management too, right? She asked the biggest question for Yuan Huang.
Unexpectedly, Yuji sighed deeply, and there were tears in the dignified man's eyes: "It's a long story. The work of our newspaper is actually very dangerous, and many people will write suicide notes in advance in case they can give their lives for their ideals at any time, and of course the president is too. According to the president's suicide note, colleagues should be replaced in order of seniority, so yesterday afternoon the president was killed, and someone will replace him immediately. โ
โโฆโฆ Could it be? โ
"Yes, in the evening, the second president was also killed, then the third, the fourth, and the fifth......"
The atmosphere in the reception room gradually became like a mourning hall.
Yuan Huang understood this time.
I see! The two elite spiders who went later teamed up to kill the former president in the afternoon because of the clear route, and then returned immediately; The four who set off first were really lost, and they arrived at the newspaper office one after another after nightfall.
This "succession" caused an unexpected tragedy - a lost spider killed the new president who had just taken over once, and then a second, and then another death, and so on four times. As a result, the newspaper suffered a total of five assassinations, but because the newspaper did not have time to revise, it only reported the first time.
The babies are lost, so deadly.
Yuan Huang stared sideways at Yu Ji. Although this guy is very prestigious in the newspaper, he can't enter the top four according to seniority, how lucky is this?
"So, you were so scared that you didn't dare to continue to take over, but let my husband be cannon fodder? It's too much! Please come back! Xiao Youxiang was immediately furious when she heard this.
Yu Ji waved his hand again and again and explained, "There is no such intention! Because of the heavy responsibilities of the president, only the names of the four successors were written on the suicide note. If you think about it according to ordinary thinking, the four of them are more than enough, who would have thought that they would all be sacrificed overnight! Someone is so ruthless that even if he writes the names of a hundred people, he will lose half his life! It's inhumane! โ
No, you're mistaken......
Just six mechanical spiders. If you pick up another person, you will be safe, you give up too early, you should continue to persevere.
"It's just your word that you only have the names of the four replacements, maybe you're the fifth. Where is the suicide note? If you want my husband to take a risk, come out with evidence first! โ
"Burned by the killers."
Bah!
Babies will also burn suicide notes, why do I not believe it so much?
Yuan Huang asked, "There are so many people in the whole continent, why did you choose me?" โ
"Because the whole company has seen it, you and the president have had a great conversation, and they all agree with his philosophy." Right. That's right! You're right!" Everybody heard! We urgently need a comrade who can fully inherit the great idea of the president! As far as the eye can see, the whole continent and even the whole world are none other than you! โ
โโฆโฆ Yes, you are right. After hearing this, Yuan Huang finally couldn't help but hold his forehead on the spot.
In fact, there are other reasons why Yuji and others chose Yuan Huang as cannon fodder - the only apprentice of the prophet, this name alone is enough. In addition, everyone knows that Yuanhuang and Yuhankou have a slight relationship, which is "not easy to be assassinated" and "easy to rebel from Yuhanbed's camp", in a sense, there is really no better candidate for this situation except Yuanhuang.
"Okay!"
Yuan Huang agreed.
In addition to having no good reason to refuse, he also has selfish motives - if he has the opportunity afterwards, he can use his position as president to manipulate the newspaper. From this incident, Yuan Huang has been extremely sure of the power contained in the small newspaper, and may be able to use it in the future.
"Thank you, Mr. Genhuang, ah no, Mr. President!"
"I don't know much about the work of the newspaper yet, so I hope Mr. Yuji will help me more in the future?"
"Newspaper work?" Yuji was stunned when he heard this, "What newspaper does it do?" โ
Yuan Huang was also stunned: "Isn't the president's task to manage the work of the newspaper?" โ
"Of course! But now that the newspaper has completely stopped, you can leave with me for the northwest commercial city! โ
โโฆโฆ Why? โ
"What else can you do but force the crazy woman in Yuhan bed to get out, burn her at the stake, and calm the people's anger?"
โฆโฆ it?
it?
Only then did Yuan Huang realize that the situation had suddenly evolved into a drama of "crusading against himself"! How the hell am I going to throw myself at the stake for a barbecue, it's a slightly more difficult task!
Yuji urged repeatedly, and without saying anything, he pulled Yuanhuang, the new president, to the teleportation station. Xiao Youxiang also wanted to go, but was strongly blocked by her parents, saying that many things are particularly easy to get out of control during the civil riots, and they are too dangerous to go!
A few minutes later.
Yuan Huang stood on a tall wooden gallows outside the city walls of the northwest commercial city with a bewildered expression.
The sky had not yet fully lit up, the back of the rolling hills was slightly white, the clouds in the sky were dyed with an ominous blood-red, and the thousands of torches dancing on the ground looked hideous.
Is there really a lot of people in this city? Yuan Huang looked at the human head, which was the human head, and it was as fierce as an angry wave.
Under the city walls, there is a gallows that was often used by Nikorid when he was in power, seven or eight meters above the ground, and there is no more suitable place for a stage than here.
Yuji and the others stood on the gallows with Yuan Huang, raising their arms and shouting to thousands of people: "Everyone, please be quiet! โ
The crowd immediately fell silent, save for the grinding of clothes and the crackling of torches.
"Let me introduce you! This Mr. Yuanhuang is the only apprentice of the Prophet! โ
