Chapter 595: Internal Affairs

『Click on the chapter to report an error』

Donald, who hung up the phone, immediately walked up behind Polly, and was about to remind him that something was wrong, when a reporter stood up before the two had time to communicate.

"Mr. Polley, Mayor Donald, what do you two think about the former Mayor of Otis City, Doolin, who sued the two for conspiracy to assassinate and usurp his power in the imperial capital?"

The reporter's speech silenced the entire press conference room, and all the noise fell into a dead silence at this moment, so that even the reporters who took pictures forgot that they should take pictures, instead of standing there and looking at the reporter stupidly.

Donald's face was ugly, and Polly's face was not good-looking, it should have been a day full of excitement and joy, but I didn't expect that because of one person's speech, the whole trend of the whole thing went to an abyss. There is no doubt that this reporter must have been invited by Doolin, or at least has a certain relationship with Doolin. His words finally had an amazing effect in half a minute, and the reporters who had stopped their thoughts stood up excitedly and asked their questions loudly.

The news was so hot that Durin actually tore his face with these two people and took the matter to court.

Although the initial photos and reports leaning towards Durin's position brought a gloom to the city of Otis, many people who had a certain understanding of politics understood that this incident would only cause chaos and not have too serious a ruling effect on Donald. Because the top of the Empire, that is, the Cabinet of the Empire and the ruling party, did not send an internal investigation team to investigate Donald, in other words, the top of the Empire may think that this is just an ordinary splash of dirty water on each other, and they will not initiate the investigation process without conclusive evidence.

Only during this time the Great Parade in Otis City was a big blow to Donald, and the appearance of the Anthem Consortium saved him from almost falling.

But what people didn't expect was that Durin actually sued Donald and the Capet family in court at this time, and the nature became different in an instant, Durin must have the key evidence, otherwise he would not have been able to bring this matter to court. If he does not have any substantial evidence to accuse Donald of conspiring with the Capetian family to kill him in order to gain actual power in Otis City, Doolin will be defeated and Donald's siege will be resolved.

The news is far more hot than the second phase of development in Otis City, and even more so than the general election, which everyone knows is all about.

"Mr. Polley, what do you think of the accusations made by the former Mayor Mr. Doolin against you and the current mayor, and do you think the charges of the former Mayor Mr. Doolin can be established?"

"Mayor Donald, I heard that there has been a gap between you and Doolin for a long time, and Mr. Doolin did not give you any power during his reign, so you decided to take revenge on him because of your grudge?"

"Mayor Donald, can you tell us a little bit about your relationship with the Killer and Mr. Solo?"

"Mr. Polley, is the photograph that Mr. Doolin put on display last time directly related to your premeditated assassination?

......

One by one, the reporters rushed to the signing table with the recorder in a hoarse voice, and Polly immediately reincarnated and walked outside, followed by Donald. Bodyguards from the Capetian family and police from the Otis police department stopped these crazy journalists, but they couldn't stop the front page headlines of the entire empire tomorrow.

This big news has touched the hearts of many people, and these reporters have already made up no less than a dozen press releases in their minds to discuss this matter.

"Damn, what the hell happened to that mad dog, it was my uncle who offended him, and he also took revenge, why did he bite us anyway?", Polly cursed under his breath as he walked, Solo's disappearance was no news to the family. There has been no news for more than two months, no one alive or dead, and many family members have already guessed that something happened to Solo. Except for Durin, who has a life-and-death stake in Solo, who may become a murderer, there is no other controllable target.

Instead of seeking revenge on Durin, Mr. Capet Sr. focused on continuing to develop the family business. At present, it is the most critical moment for the Capet family, if they can win the import and export special zone, a large amount of money in their hands will be thawed, and the strength of the family will have a significant increase.

Durin was there, and as long as he didn't leave the empire for a day, he could trouble him anytime and anywhere. But opportunities don't always come there, so it's important to seize them instead of revenge.

Polly and his cousins had already received a request from Capet Sr. that whoever succeeded in becoming the next head of the family would be to make the disgraced Doolin disappear.

Polly felt that he had been a special favor to him not to go to Durin, why did this mad dog actually take the initiative to bite him? Once there was a huge problem with the investment in Otis City, it was very likely that he would lose the final of the final battle for the head of the family, and completely miss the throne of the head of the house. This is the last thing he can bear, it is more important than killing him!

Donald, who was silent and lowered his head silently, was shocked by Polly's whispered curses in his heart, if he didn't hear it wrong just now, Polly said "revenge" just now. He actually knows something about the inside story of Durin's assassination, and he knows that it was Solo's nephew who did it, but this is definitely at Solo's behest. The rules and regulations of the big family are very strict, and any behavior that exceeds their duties will be punished very severely. To say that the Assassin didn't get a nod from Solo would not be believed by anyone with an aristocratic background.

So what Polly said was revenge...... Does it mean that Solo is finished?

Donald shuddered at the thought of this possibility, and at this time he realized what kind of bastard he had provoked, and even the heir of the great nobles dared to kill?!

It was precisely because he knew the news that he realized where the confidence to dare to "challenge" Doolin's rules came from - what he thought was Doolin's compromise with the nobility.

The Capet family sent a killer to assassinate him, and he knew who the other party was, but after Mags acted as an intermediary to resolve the matter, Durin, who had suffered a big loss, actually stopped making trouble. This makes Donald subconsciously have a disdain for Durin, in fact, like everyone else, he is as powerless as most people in the face of people who are stronger than himself, and can only choose to accept the grievance and then compromise the matter. It is precisely because of this "common sense" that he was unconsciously implanted in Donald's subconscious, so he made a slight adjustment to Duhring's law after he came to power, and he thought it was a reasonable thing.

But now it seems that things are not at all the way he imagined them to be.

It was not Doolin who was wronged and temporarily compromised, but the Capetian family, they did not speak out when they died an heir, and they did not settle accounts with Doolin, so it can be seen that the real winner of this matter is Doolin! He is simply crazy, no, a mad dog, and he really bit Solo to death!

At the thought of this, a layer of cold sweat escaped from Donald's back, which made him feel uncomfortable, and at the same time made his senses seem to become sensitive, as if someone around him was secretly watching him, watching his head, neck, and heart...... and all the vital points in the body.

Before he knew it, he followed Polly to the mayor's office, and Polly sat directly in the position that belonged to the mayor, slapped the table angrily, stood up again, picked up the phone, dialed a string of numbers, and then stared at Donald with wide eyes.

Donald's mind went blank, but his gaze naturally met Polly's.

The eyes of the two were angry and the other was stunned, and after looking at each other for a while, Polly raised the earpiece in his hand, "Can't you see I'm on the phone? Get out!", he pointed out the door with the earpiece, and Donald walked out in a daze, and closed the door.

The moment the sound of the door closing woke him up from his thoughts, he subconsciously glanced back at the office door, the door that belonged to him.

Now that he's been kicked out, a shame is rising, and the young man who is a little younger than him gets him out of his office. Although Polly did not use the word "roll", his tone, his demeanor, and his movements did not insult Donald as if he were a subordinate.

This is normal, for these big nobles in the north, there is not much difference between a person from a small aristocracy like Donald and an inferior person, and Donald has also taken refuge in the Capet family!

Donald, who withdrew his gaze, walked to the window and looked at the march that was still going on in the square, and for the first time there was a fog in his heart that he couldn't even see through, and the clear future was getting stricter and stricter from him, and the thick fog covered the way forward, and he was now extremely confused.

I just hope that the Capet family can be trusted!

The news of Doryn's accusation that Donald had conspired with the Capetian family to assassinate him spread quickly throughout the empire, and the imperial capital next to Otis began to spread the news.

Maggs had just entered the cabinet, and after answering a phone call, he asked his secretary to bring the head of the housekeeping team over.

At present, the empire does not have a clear department to manage the investigation of officials and high-level crimes, and it is entirely up to the internal affairs team of the party to deal with these matters, but the relevant departments are being prepared, and bills will be introduced in the second half of the year or the end of the year when the last imperial parliament comes. Now, these matters are still handled by the Internal Affairs Group.

The leader of the housekeeping team was Wallace, a half-race man whose ancestors were said to have migrated to the Northern Continent from elsewhere, and he had blue-gray hair, which was evident in the characteristics of people from other places. He looked to be forty-seven or eighteen years old, with a lot of crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and his face was very pale, a little sickly and unhealthy. His eyes are strange, at first glance they look as blurry and chaotic as if they are not in focus, but when you look closely, you can feel something palpitating.

He was a very ruthless man, and he was also a feared executioner in the party.

At this time, he stood by the door with his head bowed, "Your Excellency, what do you command?"
