In Los Angeles, the banquet is in full swing.

In the midst of the staggering, Shangri-La's so-called upper-class people are in groups, talking and laughing, and those courtesans are shuttling through the crowd, guiding the conversation with enchantment and coquettishness.

This is Shangri-La's most iconic night view, but it is a pity that the guests here have lost the power and glory of 20 years ago.

Miró didn't expect that the banquet that Toruń was talking about would be like this. Nominally speaking, Toruń and Amulo are both generals of the Allied Command, and they are under Ling Tong, and they have a gap between the two, even if it is for the sake of Fanor, they cannot be seriously responsible, but after all, they leave their posts without permission. Now that the bayonet is red, if Ling Tong is determined to come to a war zone to make a report, and then stab the media like this......

I don't know if these two guys are really dependent or brave by nature, after a long conversation with Yisi in the afternoon, Miro unconsciously leaned towards the latter.

There is almost no suspense about the unification of the world by the Qingwei, there is no one in the high-end military force that Fanol can match, the alliance has an obvious advantage in the conventional military force, and even the people's will is ready for global unification. In the eyes of those who care, every step is for the post-war political pattern, and now it seems that this political struggle has completely become a civil war for Qingwei.

Fanol was the most qualified candidate, but he made it clear that he had no intention of doing so, and a dispute ensued.

From the people's point of view, the most competitive after the war is nothing more than presiding over the military affairs of the alliance, Ling Tonghe, who is almost rumored to be the god of war in the world, and Hu Er, who has rich political experience and has risen in popularity recently. In addition to these two, the combination of Toruń and Amulo, who have deep roots in the military and high exposure, also has a certain appeal.

But for those who are well-informed, whether they want it or not, Fanol is still the only candidate, and he is the only one who meets the definition of a leader after Su Zhi, and can take into account the interests of everyone, and Miró is the representative of this group.

The post-war world is necessarily democratic. Democracy means that its leaders must not only have merit, but also have a mouthpiece, a team, and a group of the most solid supporters. Ling Tong and others already have the entire system faintly, but Fanor is almost invisible in the propaganda, and his strength, wisdom, and achievements are still unknown to the general public, which is the biggest obstacle.

Miró even suspects that the current situation of the Qingwei group hidden in the shadows is also one of his many plans. You must know that this time is different from the past, Qingwei has already obtained all the military power and power of the Alliance and the Americas, and even if it appears in the public eye, it will not cause any backlash.

Now it seems that Fanol does not intend to change, and neither do they. Public opinion can be bullied, they decided to follow the path of Fanol without the support of Fanol himself, and select collaborators among the candidates with popular support, accept his system, guide and consolidate the popular base, and counterattack at the right time, through a large number of leaks and exposures to force Fanol into the leadership position.

Toruń's system was built by him and was the least powerful of the First Group, which is why he was the most suitable person. This is also the key reason why Miro was invited to Shangri-La to extend an olive branch to him and Amulo.

But who knew that Toruń would be so crazy that he dared to risk the world to extend the political dispute to force. Didn't he know that doing so would cause a split in the Qingwei? Miro never believed that Ith was genuinely thinking about Toruń, but Eth did have no fear, because Miro could not sit back and confirm the accusations against him, nor could he force interference in the actions of the Toruń group, to be precise, any action that might lead to the opposite of Toruń was unacceptable to Miro and his allies.

This conclusion made Miró frustrated, and the young man who was played with by his words and deeds in the past actually grew up to this point in a trance. He dissected everything in front of him, but he had no way to deal with him, and he couldn't even see his purpose. What is Iss for? Revenge for personal vendettas? Vainly trying to weaken the Qingwei and restore the country through the defeat of the Alliance? Or is it the least likely, that he really intends to use force to reverse Toruń's unfavorable situation and become a complete servant of the dragon?

Miro was so caught up in it that he didn't even notice Toruń and Amulo, who were smiling at him.

"Do you like this party?" Torun took a glass of wine from the tray of the passing waiter and handed it over, "It's a pity that this is just a ruined garden, if it were a palatial palace, it would be perfect." ”

"It's already good." Miro retracted his thoughts at the right time and smiled wryly, "I'm flattered. ”

"What? Dissatisfied? Toruń was keenly aware of Miro's bitterness.

"Don't get me wrong, I just think this banquet is ...... Wouldn't it be too ostentatious? Miro perked up, "After all, in a way, you're not in Shangri-La right now. ”

"You mean Ling Tong will take the opportunity to attack me?" Torun looked disdainful, "He's not that bold, and I'm not that stupid, these, including parliamentarians, big businessmen, celebrities and big names in various fields, they are all my hardcore supporters, we are one." ”

"Then do they know that you have just planned the assassination of Mr. Hu Er?"

Toruń's expression froze visibly. How could this action possibly make those people known? More importantly, why would Miro know about this action?

"How do you know?" Toruń's gaze was grim.

"You forgot that I'm friends with Eth." Miro shrugged, pretending to be relaxed.

"Look at my memory." Toren grinned without a smile, "Did you tell Lord Fanor?" ”

"It's up to you." Miro pinched his glass and slowly spun it around.

"Mr. Hood and I have said that we are complementary and that we are the best collaborators." The two hands are clasped tightly. It was a peculiar alliance in which the purpose of the two sides was not cooperation, but annexation. Not only does Miro want to take over Toruń's system, but Toruń also wants wider support within the Green Guard, which Iss has analysed for him, and he is convinced that this is what he lacks the most right now.

"Do you think you'll succeed?"

"You mean a plan to assassinate a piece of waste with dozens of underworld masters? I think he's a dead body by now. ”

Toruń could continue taunting, but his lieutenant interrupted his performance. The young man trotted onto the dance floor, whispering into Toruń's ear, and Miró saw his face grow bluer.

The back wing of Los Angeles, the residence of Ishud.

Eth didn't go to the boring banquet, he was in his room at the moment, opposite a holographic figure.

"Done?"

"Hu Er will only think that he has escaped assassination by luck." The voice on the other end of the screen was hoarse and steady.

"It's a pity, in order not to be suspected, I can only arrange you alone into the assassination team, in fact, it will be better to have a few renegade captives at this time." Yi Si shook his head regretfully, he was not familiar with Hu Er, but an unsolved case did not help much to what he was doing.

"I've added material to a few of them, and if they're careful enough, they'll find clues."

Ise nodded. Opposite the most famous killer outside of Greenwich's Ables, now they come together and work towards a common ideal: "You have to leave Izumo as soon as possible, and no one will find you." ”

"It's not time yet." The other end of the screen refused crisply, "Unless I'm sure those additives are detected and understood." ”

"It's going to be dangerous for you to stay there." Yisi was very careful with his words, these words are not easy to say, and it is easy to hurt the feelings of comrades, "You should understand that if you are captured alive, it will be a great threat to us. ”

"No one can capture me alive." The holographic screen shook for a while, "I'll leave when the time comes." ”

……

Izumo, the shootout in front of the island government has subsided, but Hu Er is not as far away from right and wrong as most high-ranking people, he is still sitting in his special car, which still stays in this neighborhood.

The afternoon shootout took a huge toll as a result, with 27 casualties among the defenders, 79 on the Izumo side, and nearly 500 civilians wounded, most of them dead, while the attackers lost 62 lives, but the sniper could not be found.

Hu Er, who lived for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, was immersed in doubts and happiness. That sniper's ability was extremely strong, 19 of Hu Er's elite guards died under his gun, if it wasn't for the reflection of the scope, Hu Er really didn't dare to expect that he would have the ability to survive under the gaze of such a grim reaper.

The results of the preliminary investigation have ruled out most of the suspects. These attackers were not afraid of death, but neither the plan nor the tactics were meritorious, unlike the soldiers, who could not see the organization, which basically ruled out the suspicion of Maori and Huaxia; There is almost nothing on the deceased that can identify them, indicating that the plotters need to conceal their identities, which alone excludes the possibility of scavengers.

Is the person who wants to kill me in Izumo or Qingwei? Hu Er's heart is actually inclined to the latter, but will anyone really dare to raise this political battle to the point of force under the nose of Fanor?

There is still too little corroboration. Hu Er pressed the call button, he needed to let the guard chief check more carefully, if necessary, he would ask the whole city, the sniper who slipped through the net must know something.

The chief guard came quickly, but the news he brought made Hu Er stunned: "Your Excellency, the Izumo Police Agency wants to take over the case. ”

"Police Agency?" Even from a formal point of view, this case is not in the hands of the National Police Agency. Why does the National Police Agency want to take over the case? Could it be that the attacker is from Izumo, I guessed wrong?

"The Izumo government is under a lot of pressure after the scavenging of the waste pickers and the depression in the Izumo market, and they want the National Police Agency to solve the case in order to increase the government's support." The chief guard also noticed the ambiguity in his words and hurriedly explained.

"I see." Izumo Prime Minister Tsukama Takehiro spoke to him on the phone as soon as the incident subsided, Hu Er has been immersed in his own thoughts, and he almost can't remember if he doesn't mention it to the chief of the guard, but even if he remembers, Hu Er doesn't intend to satisfy them, "It's impossible to take over, that sniper alone is not something that these police can deal with, notify the garrison to select a capable blockade of the whole island, and find him out." There is a limit to the amount of cooperation you can have with the cops, who are professional detectives who may be able to spot something that you have overlooked. ”

"I'm going to inform them."

"Go ahead, I'll go back first, and let me know as soon as there is any news."

"Yes, Your Excellency."
