"What? Interview me? ”

Leo looked Julie up and down, he rarely watched TV and news, in his eyes, those hosts, reporters, stars and other things behind the screen, 108,000 miles away from him, suddenly there was a standing in front of him, he was a little at a loss.

He asked cautiously, scratching his chin and rolling his eyes.

"Am I in trouble?"

Zhu Liying smiled mysteriously: "Hmph, I didn't cause trouble, how did I get into the hospital?" ”

Leo muttered to himself. The woman had never seen it herself, but she seemed to know about Mount Rogar. He took a deep breath and said disappreciatively, "I'm just fighting." ”

"Yes, that's it," Julie said right away, "I want to know what you're fighting for." ”

"Well, if you don't agree with each other, you can do it."

"Too sketchy, right? Specific, time, place......"

"It's okay with you, right?" Leo said a little impatiently, "Even if it's an interview, I have the right to refuse, right?" ”

Zhu Liying nodded and said, "It makes sense." Why don't we change the subject, how about the matter of Langeta Town, or the matter of Lantian Town, and your two partners? ”

Leo just wanted to take the handheld and retracted it, his initial nervousness turned into wariness, and he glanced at Julie Ying seemingly casually.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Don't pretend, I've seen it with my own eyes."

"I guess you're wrong."

"I'm not seventy or eighty, and my eyes haven't spent."

"It has nothing to do with me, please go back."

As he spoke, Leo picked up his handheld. The moment his hand touched the handheld, Julie's eyes swept over the handheld screen, and when the voice in the handheld sounded, she showed a weird smile.

"You're playing God Hunter, aren't you?"

Leo was shocked, more surprised than he was to hear Julie report her home.

"You know this?"

"Of course, I'm also a handheld player."

Julie took her handheld out of her satchel, and Leo suddenly had the feeling of finding a soulmate, after all, now that everyone is playing mobile games, the handheld is about to become a obsolete product of the times.

"Do you also play God Hunter?"

"yes, but look at your picture, and the sound, the upper limit of the weapon's level is 10, isn't it the latest version? It's 15 now. ”

Leo was amazed, and he had a smile on his face. Judging the version of the game by the graphics and sound is not unusual for a veteran player. It's strange to be able to meet one here, it's just fate.

"I haven't been paid much this month, and I'll have to wait until next month's salary."

"But you've been on sick leave for a few days, I'm afraid it will be less, right?"

"If you don't say it, I know."

"What do you think of this?"

Zhu Liying pressed it on the handheld.

"I'll buy you one."

"Send me?"

"If you buy a digital version in the game store, you can give it to your friends, how about adding friends to each other?"

"This ......"

"I'll pay for it. Instead, just answer me a few questions. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else. ”

Leo was silent, a game is not expensive, not to mention that this is still a download file for game upgrades, but more than 100 karma. But for Leo, that means there may be a few meals that need to be replaced with instant noodles. He was squeezing money every month, and several games were bought with deferred payments and haven't been paid off yet.

He forgot about the game in his hand, and just stared at the friend application on Julie's screen. Of course, he hadn't forgotten Rolov's warning, and even if he didn't have to say it, he knew he couldn't just say it.

But, however, this temptation is too powerful. It's like throwing a grilled steak to a puppy, and it's irresistibly delicious.

"Then I'm ......"

"Is the security there?"

The sudden powerful shout broke the situation and brought Leo to his senses.

It's Akeya's voice.

He wore the uniform of the traffic police and strode to the sentry box, and Zhu Liying hurriedly turned around.

"What for?"

"I'm here for security, are you?"

"How is that possible?"

"Then it's none of your business, the security guard will come out quickly."

"It's coming, it's coming."

While agreeing, Leo trotted out of the sentry box, opened the school gate, and came face to face with Akeya, leaving Julie with a back, and squeezed her eyes at Akeya, who nodded understandingly.

"I'm from the Su'ub traffic team, and the lines of some parking spaces in the parking lot in front of the door are not clear enough, so I'll show you. Then you notify the school to deal with it. Follow me. ”

"Okay."

Leo casually agreed, and was about to follow Akeya, but was stopped by Julie.

"Wait a minute."

Akya looked at Julie Ying very seriously: "What's the matter?" ”

"The line of the parking space is not clear, can't you just tell them to redraw it? Is it necessary to lead the security guard to confirm? ”

"This is the rule of our traffic team, it is necessary for the security guards to follow, and the police must also supervise."

"But ......"

"You want to say what is your freedom, but I have the right to arrest you if you interfere with official business."

Julie couldn't say anything more, and Akeya took the opportunity to walk with Leo to the parking lot. When Zhu Liying was no longer visible behind them, the two slowed down.

"Thanks," Leo looked back with trepidation, for fear that Julie would catch up, "I won't be able to resist you if you don't come." By the way, how did you become a traffic policeman? ”

"I let the killer of Captain Corolla run away, and this is the punishment."

Leo also heard Rolov talk about Corolla, and sighed: "It's really not like you, what are you here for today?" ”

"I came to check the illegal stop on the way, and I just saw that the woman seemed to be pestering the captain, who is it?"

"Claiming to be a journalist."

"Journalists?"

Leo then recounted what had just happened, and noticed that Akeya was looking at him thoughtfully.

"Captain, are you supposed to ...... Want to take the game and tell the truth, right? ”

"Look, do I look like such an unprincipled person?"

"This ......"

"Don't hesitate, I'm very tight," Leo said solemnly.

"That's right. But I don't know how the reporter noticed it, did he tell the mayor? ”

"Don't, don't," Leo waved his hand hurriedly, "she's just guessing, there's no real evidence." Tell the old man that it's too troublesome, let's just keep our mouths shut, and today's incident shouldn't have happened. ”

"I see."

*****

On the other hand, Rolov was not as busy as he had been a few days before, sitting in his office this morning playing computer games, mainly chess and cards. Although they don't have the same nerves as Leo, the grandfather and grandson still have the same habit of passing the time with games.

But after lunch, he wasn't so laid-back.

"Garth stayed."

Answered Christie's intercom call. Rolov nodded calmly, turned off the game, and gathered up the papers on the table and stuffed them into a notebook folder on the shelf. When he had done this, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

A few minutes later, Christie brought in three men, who had made an appointment yesterday. The two people in the back are tall and big, wearing short sleeves and leather pants, and they tuck their clothes into their pants, revealing their bright belts, and they look like bodyguards. The man in front of him was half a head shorter than them, in a suit and leather shoes, wearing glasses about the size of Christie, and his expression was very anxious.

"Good afternoon, Mayor Rolov."

"Welcome, Gaslius Brianshaw, sit down."

Gasliu sat on the couch, and the bodyguards he brought with him stood in the doorway, like two door gods. On the other hand, Rolov is standing next to Christie, who is full of OL fan, and his aura is a little lacking. But Gaslius frowned at the sight of the two men, as if foreseeing the end of the conversation. He didn't know how to say it for a moment, but Rolov said it for him.

"You don't talk enough on the phone, do you have to meet in person?"

With Rolov at the beginning, Gaslius finally mustered up a little courage.

"The final vote will be in a few days, and I'm going to do everything I can to convince you."

"It's only natural to pay off debts, and you want me to cancel my debts? There are no doors. ”

"We don't need you to write it off, we just ask you to settle the account on Mr. Cullom!"

"It means that if Cullom loses the election, tell me not to ask that brother for money, right?"

Rolov lit a cigarette, and when he had said this, he blew hard, and to Gaslius, the smoke was also full of disdain, and he could only bite the bullet.

"That's it...... In any case, please don't give Copenne evidence! ”

As Gaslius spoke, his head lowered, waiting for Rolov's answer. For years, every time he talked about this debt, he had to be low.

After all, the future of the current mayor of the city of Kogani, Cullom Durut, is at stake.

Government borrowing is nothing new these days. There are basically two ways to borrow, one is private bonds, the other is bank loans, and some countries have a third way, allowing a certain level of local governments to borrow foreign debt, as is the case in the various stronghold cities of the Arctic Kingdom.

However, Kulom chose the fourth route: borrowing money from other city governments, or from Rolov.

All illegal EXP research in the Arctic comes from an agency called the "Science and Technology Control Bureau", referred to as the Science and Technology Administration. It was secretly established by the parliament six years ago, is governed by the parliament, has a great deal of scientific research freedom, and its external name is the "National Institute of Applied Development of Physical Science and Technology". In the first two years, intermittent trial runs were carried out to confirm safety and future research directions.

Four years ago, part of the research assignment was officially assigned by the Science and Technology Authority, and it was here that the University of Ceylon and the town of Langeta came from. Like Akiyama City, Kogani City has undertaken 9 research assignments, 3 more than Akiyama City.

Cullom's idea is very straightforward, illegal EXP research is extremely dangerous, and if it is not done well, it will attract people from the world government and plunge the whole country into injustice. However, this is a good opportunity to show yourself in front of the council, and if you can get ahead of other cities with research tasks, especially other stronghold cities, it will definitely greatly improve the council's favorability of the city of Kogani and itself, and pave the way for the future to enter the council.

But things weren't as simple as Cullom thought.

Illegal EXP research is not visible and must be carried out in secret. How to choose the location of the staff and carry out the research work safely tests the leader's understanding of confidentiality. Judging from the results, Cullom's understanding is not enough, he is good at doing business in a peaceful environment, but he is not good at dealing with all kinds of unexpected threats lurking in a peaceful environment.

After the research task was assigned, Kulom arranged the location and personnel in three months, which was another two months faster than Rolov. Things went well until the next year, and then he was done.

Two research institutes hidden on the edge of the city have an inexplicable explosion, and the storage room where the EXP is stored leaks for unknown reasons, but the consequences are immediate. In order to facilitate storage, the EXP for research is repeatedly compressed and attached to a tower-shaped metal called a "energy collector tower", which is extremely strong. It was these energy towers that were suddenly scrapped, causing the EXP to spiral out of control and causing an explosion.

The institute was in flames, and the burning EXP was still inducing explosions one after another, and the researchers and security guards tried to control the situation, but could not do anything. The explosion also affected innocent passers-by outside the institute to some extent. It took six hours for the fire to be extinguished. More than 120 people from the two research institutes were not spared, either killed or injured, and more than a dozen passers-by were also injured.

It took 10 minutes after the first explosion for Cullom to get the news, and he hurried to block it. Once the fire is extinguished, dispose of the institute and destroy the corpses while thinking about how to deal with the Executive Directorate on the way. If they knew that the institute had caused the accident and caused such a large number of casualties, he, the mayor, would have to take the blame and would have to step down before the next election.

When asked by someone from the Executive Board, Cullom replied that several superpowers had caught fire in the city of Kogani, affecting the Institute, and that the explosion was their masterpiece. He also deliberately hired a few "actors", falsified surveillance footage, and threatened surviving researchers to testify against them in order to prove that there were indeed superpowers, presumably with the aim of sabotaging the Institute.

After three days of repeated investigations, the Executive Board concluded that "Cullom was not lying" and asked to see the status of the Institute. Cullom had already cleaned up the institute, messed up some equipment that could only be seen but could not be used, and fabricated a few more data. I really can't explain the part, so I will throw the pot to those "super people". He can't throw too much, that needs to fill in a lot of details of the "superman conflict", otherwise he won't be able to hide from the eyes of the Executive Board.

"That's fine, Cullom, and I hope you can deliver satisfactory results on the appointed day."

The Executive Directorate is gone, leaving behind this sentence and an almost impossible task. After losing nearly half of his equipment, Cullom was unable to deliver his assignments on time. He boasted about Haikou in front of the Science and Technology Administration, if he couldn't cash it in, he would not only lose face, but also the black gauze hat and the peace of the rest of his life.

Cullom was distressed for three days, and he felt that he would definitely not be able to do anything on his own, so he had to turn to others for help. The best choice is the mayor of Akiyama City, Rolov. Akiyama City has a research mission, and his friendship with Rolov is reasonable, but he doesn't know how to open this mouth.

Luckily, Rolov actually took the initiative to contact him. The old mayor guessed that things were not so simple, and after an interview, Kulom told the truth, and Rolov agreed to help him, offering several ways to buy equipment safely, but the question of money followed. Cullom couldn't get a bank loan, and he couldn't lend money to the private sector, which would leave evidence for the Executive Board.

He had no choice but to ask Rolov for help again, so there was now the arrears that Gasliu and Rolov discussed. To outsiders, the current debt of the city of Kogani is about 40 billion karma, but if you count the money that Rolov lent him for the purchase of equipment and experimental materials, it will be 23 billion karma more.

This loan did not fall within the normal financial scope of Kogani, it was borrowed by Cullom's personal connections, and if it was to be repaid, it could only be repaid by private means. Rolov has not heard of any mayor in the world who can take out more than 20 billion karma from his personal assets, and even he himself has managed to balance out this money by falsifying his books. Cullom would have to do the same if he wanted to pay it back.

However, the Executive Directorate did not seem to dispel suspicions of Cullom, and they sent several men to various departments of the Kogani government, and demanded that Cullom be kept accountable every month and that his finances be closely monitored. In this case, Cullom has little room to maneuver, allowing him to free up spare money to pay off his debts. Three years later, there are still $22.2 billion in arrears.

And this is exactly what Rolov really intended to help Kulom with "kindness".

He didn't expect Cullom to pay back quickly, that wouldn't be good. Using debt as a blackmail can force Cullom to make concessions on many things. There is no shortage of conflicts of interest between stronghold cities, such as Iguanka.

As for Kulom, since that accident, his political career has gone downhill. The approval rating has fallen, the GDP has declined, and because it is impossible to explain to the outside world, many companies are uneasy about why there are super-capable people fighting in the city of Kogani, and some companies simply choose to withdraw their investment, leaving behind a large number of unfinished buildings. The entire city of Kogani is in a state of gradual decadence.

Sadly, Cullom needs to look this way for the final outcome of the mayoral election in a few days' time. In the previous rounds, Cullom was at odds behind another candidate, Copenne Saadwin. Moreover, the details of Copen's speeches show that he knows the truth about the "superhuman fire" three years ago, and uses it as a propaganda weapon, making it difficult for Cullom to resist.

Kulom knew that once he lost the election, he would completely lose the possibility of repaying the money, and Rolov would inevitably ask the new mayor for money. At that time, all lies will be gone, and the Executive Directorate will not hesitate to take him away, and what will happen next, he does not know and does not dare to think.

"I don't know that Copena well, and I'm not going to say anything, but if Cullom does step down, I can't think of any way he can pay it back. So I had to ask the government for it. As his secretary, you should be able to understand. ”

Rolov said as he smoked, looking at Gaslius coldly and with some regret. This man is not yet 40 years old, and he has a future of his own, but he has a special loyalty to Cullom, and he is anxious that he will not be able to get out of his predicament, probably because he knows too much to get out. Hearing that Rolov did not mean to change his mind, Gaslius was in a hurry and stood up.

"It's not enough to kill people, Mr. Rolouf can't drive Mr. Cullom to a dead end for money, right? Mr. Cullom had already thought that if he lost the election, he would quit politics, and his family was originally in business, and he would definitely be able to ...... then."

"I rely on selling clothes to pay back, I'm afraid I won't live to pay it off that day, so I don't have to discuss."

The two of you said a word, and the more Gaslius spoke, the more excited he became, and he stood in front of the desk in a few steps and clapped his hands down. Rolov still wouldn't let go.

Gaslius was silent for a moment, then lowered his head, and when he lifted it, he no longer had a pleading expression.

"Mr. Rolov, it's not appropriate to be a man and stay on one, so that we can see each other in the future, and do such a desperate job, right?"

"Soft can't come hard? It's not your turn to talk about my principles. ”

"I know. When you lent Mr. Cullom money for complete secrecy, you also made false accounts in your finances, right? We are now grasshoppers on a rope, and we will all die together! ”

After some cruel words, Rolov looked up to the sky and laughed, unable to help himself. Laughing, he threw out a fierce gaze.

"I made false accounts, who can prove it? Even if you do poke it out, I'll be fined, but he'll have nothing to do. Even if he wants to pull me into the water, there are less than ten people who know about it, so what can I do? A fallen mayor, a mayor who has been in office for decades, do you think the parliament can trust him, or the Ministry of National Security can trust him? ”

There was another suffocating silence in the room. Gaslius pursed his lips, adjusted his breathing, which had become disrupted by excitement, and straightened his tie.

"Mr. Rolov, you've made up your mind, haven't you?"

"Don't make me repeat the same thing."

"Then don't regret it, take your leave."

With that, the three of them walked out of the office, and Christie was about to deliver one when Rolov grabbed her hand. Wait until the sound of leather shoes outside has completely disappeared before letting go. Christie looked at him with some concern.

"Lord Rolov, isn't that right?"

"You noticed that, too?"

"It's not just Gaslius just now, from the moment he entered the house, one of the bodyguards was full of murderous energy, and Gasliu's last words, I'm afraid they won't stop there, maybe they will assassinate them!"

Rolov slowly got up, paced to the window, and watched as the three men got into the car and drove out of the compound. He twisted his beard and thought.

Christie's fears are not unfounded.

At the Akiyama City Hall, in addition to himself and Christie, the head of the finance department and the accountant in charge of the accounts were aware of the debt. All three of them are their own henchmen, so they don't need to worry about leaks. What's more, neither Christie nor the Minister of Finance knew what he talked about when he met Cullom for the first time, and the accountant didn't know anything about it, just doing things as he was told. With these three mouths alone, it is impossible to know the whole picture.

On the other hand, if you are assassinated, then the matter will be unproven and covered up forever.

But it was hard for Rolov to imagine that Kulom would be stupid enough to assassinate himself. Not to mention that the success rate is pitifully low, if the mayor of the stronghold city is killed, it will definitely become an explosive news that the world has noticed, and the Coordination Bureau and the Executive Directorate will go all out. At that time, even if he has the ability to reach the sky, he will not be able to escape.

No, Cullom's purpose is to get out of debt, not to play with his life. But Christie's words made Rolov unable to completely dismiss this possibility, after all, just now, Gasliu's murderous aura was about to spray from his nostrils to his face.

Let's take precautions.

*****

For the whole afternoon, Rolouf didn't go anywhere but the office and the bathroom, and even went to the toilet and left Christie waiting outside the door. When he got off work at 5 o'clock, he asked Christie to drive him home.

The car pulled up safely outside the courtyard of Rolov's house, and Christie dropped Rolov to the door before driving away. Rolov immediately pushed the door open and entered, and two maids greeted him, and the man he had found was waiting in the hall.

"All here? Let's eat first. ”

"You're back, Lord Mayor."

Akya, who had been sitting by the window drinking tea, immediately got up and saluted Rolov. Dimit, who was next to him, also said hello to Rolov, while Leo, who was lying on the couch playing on his phone, turned his head and looked at the door.

"It's back, old man."

"Can't you be as polite as Akeya?"

"Okay. It's back, grandpa. ”

Leo's strange voice almost gave Rolov goosebumps, and he handed his briefcase and his tunic to the two maids, and walked into the living room, his eyes falling on the sumptuous dishes that took up half of the table, and the hissing in the kitchen was a sign that this was not all.

"This old lady has beaten chicken blood today?" Rolov scratched his head and said.

"Madame said that Lord Leo would rarely come back today, so he had to cook himself." A maid said.

"Hmph, I'm usually too lazy to cook, which is quite unexpected. But it's you, who is more surprised. ”

Rolov looked at Dimitt.

"You're really here."

"After all, there is a contract," Dimmit said as he lowered his legs and stretched his waist, unable to tell whether it was serious or joking, "and the fragments are gone, and my intelligence agent is out on errands again." As a member of the special detachment, you still have to obey orders. ”

"That's fine. I have called you here today, not for anything else, but to keep me safe. ”

Leo sat up with a: "What do you mean?" Someone is going to assassinate you? ”

"It's just possible."

"That wouldn't be enough to bring us all in, would it? Isn't it good to call the police? ”

"The police are too big to target, and it's a bit inconvenient to call. Saying that I am in danger, is that your attitude? ”

"You don't have to worry about your safety at all, do you? I'll leave this to your maid. ”

Listening to Leo's words, Akeya looked at the two maids with some confusion. The two were setting up the table, and when they saw Akeya looking at them, they bowed politely, quietly.

"Captain, are those two maids also part-time bodyguards?"

"It's not just a bodyguard, I dare say that you can't wear NS enough for the two of them."

"Is this so powerful?"

"It's not as exaggerated as Leo suggests."

Rolov said as she walked over to the dining table, where the maid pulled out the largest of the chairs that surrounded the dining table and sat on it.

"They're just not good at keeping their mouths alive, and that's why they called you. If he is caught alive, he will be handed over to Akeya for trial. The rest, if there are too many, let Dimmit clean up. Still have questions? ”

The words were reasonable, and Derio couldn't refute a word.

"I will train my eldest grandson, and I don't know how to help with the dishes!"

Out of the kitchen came Leo's grandmother, Victoria Sharma, who was only a little shorter than Rolov, with a golden curly head, a white apron, and heat-insulating gloves on her hands, holding the roast chicken that had just come out of the oven, and walked to the dining table in a small step, put the roast chicken in the center of the table, took off her gloves, and glared at Roloff.

"You just said I had chicken blood, didn't you?"

"Hey, my ears are pretty good."

"Hmph, I won't tell you. Come on, come on, come and eat. ”

Victoria beckoned everyone to sit down, and set up the plates, knives and forks herself.

"It's rare for Leo to bring friends today, be sure to eat well, and Leo, remember to call Luna next time."

Leo was stunned when he heard this: "What do you mean?" ”

"I went to the hospital to observe, it's really good, it's good in all aspects, at first glance, it's a good wife and mother, a girl who can be inside and out. It just so happens that you have a relationship, so this matter is settled. ”

Thinking of Luna's usual life by ordering food, and the way she looked exhausted from work, Leo couldn't understand who this good wife and mother could talk about.

"It's decided, grandma, don't talk nonsense."

"What nonsense? Can I still look away? You can get married while I still have a breath, so that I can feel the same family! ”

"Don't just decide!"

The grandparents and grandchildren talked about their own words, and Dimmit on the side couldn't help laughing, and even Akeya couldn't help laughing. Everyone took their seats and enjoyed a feast full of tables.

They didn't know that someone was approaching outside.

Zhu Liying also understands that following Rolov's house like this will not yield anything. But during the day, she almost found a breakthrough, but was disturbed by the traffic policeman. If she can't find out anything, she always feels unwilling.

Whatever the truth, if you can't dig it up, then don't do it. This thought never changed in Julie's mind, so she stood here - looking at Rolov's villa from afar, about 300 meters away.

"What's that?"

Zhu Liying, who continued to get closer, saw a car not far from the courtyard wall of the villa, parked on the side of the road, a little abrupt. There were sparse small trees on both sides of the road, and she quickly hid behind the trees and walked slowly past.

A gust of wind suddenly blew, the branches shook and made a sound, and a man in the driver's seat turned around vigilantly, and Julie immediately spread her wings and stepped on the tree. The man opened the door and got out of the car, looking around a little nervously, he didn't notice that Julie was on a tree only a dozen steps away from the car, although the tree shook more violently, it was not so easy to detect in the wind.

The man didn't see anyone, so he straightened up with some relief, leaned back in the car and began to smoke. This sneaky appearance, at first glance, you know that it is not a good type. Anyway, there is no way to go down now, so Julie Ying simply hides in the tree. That is, after three or two minutes, two more people came and met the man.

"How?" The man asked.

"I've seen it before, the courtyard door is very easy to open, and the old man is also at home." One person replied.

"There's a lot of space in the back, the wall isn't high, you can get in, and it's very spacious, enough for our people to make a fuss." Another said.

The reports on both sides were unusual, and the man patted them on the shoulder in satisfaction.

"That's good, this time it's different, let the brothers cheer up, I'll take four people at the front door, and the rest will go in through the backyard."

"But big brother, after the matter is completed, can we run? This is the mayor. ”

"Don't worry, the boats are all arranged, everyone just needs to work."

"Okay."

After saying a few words, the three of them immediately got into the car and left here, completely unaware that their conversation was overheard by Julie.

"Isn't it......"

Julie Ying, who jumped off the tree, still couldn't believe it, and actually happened to find out that someone was going to assassinate Rolov. What to do? Rolov may not know yet, go tell him? No, that's equivalent to telling you about stalking him, so let's call the police. It's about the mayor's safety, no matter how much you listen to fake things, the police won't care.

Julie quickly pulled out her phone, but just before dialing, her hand stopped.

How smart is Rolov, how many people he usually offends, he must have known it in his heart, assassination and the like, he must have thought of it a long time ago, right? And maybe those people have something to do with the recent events in Akiyama City, which is a good opportunity to get closer to the truth.

The worst outcome was Rolov's death. But these could not be kept in Julie's mind, and in their place, it was a bold idea.

She put down her phone and ran to find her car.

What we need to do now is to fill our stomachs first, and then find a safe place to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
