Volume 11 Happy Life 011 Outbreak 01
Madagarh, Town Hall:
After an hour and a half of lengthy reports, the entire hall looked dizzy, but no one's face showed impatience, and anyone who could get mixed up to this point, who didn't have the patience to hone this kind of thing as hard as a rock?
"The morning report is over. The assistant said.
Not falling asleep doesn't mean that you like this kind of protracted and boring report, and hearing the assistant's voice is like a relief, and everyone can't help but feel refreshed, and it's finally over.
"I now give the floor to those in power. ”
Usually at this time, the assistant's words represent the end of the morning meeting, because there is nothing to say at this time under normal circumstances, and the previous lengthy report has made it clear what should be said, and what should not be said has been said for most of the day. But today there was an accident, Miller Vicch coughed and said, "I have something to say." ”
Everyone was stunned, and Coste's obscure eyes looked at Miller, and the smile on his face that had been calm was slightly.
Miller kept a straight face as always, and said with a cold face: "I object to the official inauguration of Lord Koster Bird in three days, and propose that it be allowed to be temporarily suspended. ”
"Oppose!" said the treasurer Huo Di and angrily, "Why did you make such a proposal?"
Miller said lightly: "Just because Lord Coster is not strict under his rule and connived at his subordinates to make trouble and kill people." As an Overseer, carrying such a stain on one's body is enough to affect the conduct of the Overseer. In the same way, being an overseer is the supreme overseer who oversees the exercise of the ruling power by others. If even one's own character is questioned, how can one supervise others?"
"Oh, arson?" said Fielder, surprised, "I don't know about it yet, let's hear about it." ”
Miller paused slightly. The heart was lightning to consider the meaning of Field's words.
Now that there is a ramp in Madagarh, and the situation is getting more and more out of control, the mayor will not know? It's a joke.
None of the people here are fuel-efficient lamps, and if you don't know, you don't want to know, or even if you do, you pretend not to know. And Philid. He has always been known for being a wall-to-wall grass that blows on both sides, and it is his usual style to protect himself depending on the situation, and to be honest, he hasn't run away in the face of the current situation in Madagarh, and it's a miracle that he is still sitting here. And now he says something like this......
Arisio Penocchi, Nina Zama, his own son. The friendship of the three little guys passed through his heart, and Miller couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, he was not fighting alone today! Field, a guy who loves his daughter and loves a little principle, must have stood on his side, because of Nina, and Coster carried it!
In terms of the strength behind it, Filid is no worse than himself, and he has been able to take charge of Madagarh for many years. There must be a deep water behind him, and in terms of means, this man is even more tactful and cunning than himself, but he has never been offended by either side. And now that he is willing to speak out at this time, it shows that this person is no longer neutral, and has clearly fallen to his side.
Thinking of this for a moment, Miller's expression remained unchanged at all, and his eyes turned to Field: "Lord Mayor." This may be biased to me, and you can call any of the guards stationed at the town hall and ask. ”
After a pause, Miller said solemnly: "If it is just a simple murder case, it will be over after finding out the murderer and correcting the law on the spot." But now that Lord Koster's men have absconded in fear of crime, and because this incident has aroused the anger of the people of the whole of Madagarh, which has led to more and more violent incidents, the whole thing can no longer be ignored. As the head of the chief guard regiment in Madagarh, this is within my purview and should be carefully investigated. ”
Miller paused, looking at the others with deep eyes, "Lord Koster." Do you have any objections, Your Excellency Bill, Treasurer, do you have any other objections?"
Bill secretly observed Coster's face, and saw that he was staring at Miller with a pair of eagle eyes, but he didn't say a word. Then it was quiet.
Koster was also thinking quickly in his heart at this time, and Miller, who had been holding his move, suddenly gave himself a head-on blow, what was the purpose? Could it be that he heard that he was going to attack him in the name of harboring Naga, so he jumped out first? What was Philid's attitude? These two people, one holding the position of mayor of Madagarh, and the other holding the security force of Madagarh, once the two formed an angle of encirclement against themselves, it would not be so easy to take over Madagarh smoothly.
Before this, Coster did not think that Miller would hinder his actions, the reason is very simple, he controls the entire Madagarh guard force, and is a powerful figure in Madagarh, so no matter who is replaced, he will not easily hand over the power in his hands. It would have been nice if he had been as good as the treasurer Bill Ancarius or the civil governor Paltrick Dali, but this man had a bit of a taste of salt.
At this time, he suddenly made a difficulty, what was his plan? However, he chose the timing of his attack very well, and just took advantage of the riots to put forward a proposal to postpone his formal appointment. Will he forcibly ascend to the throne, or will he follow this step to delay the official inauguration until three days later? Who will be able to stop him after three days?
Koster hesitated slightly and decisively chose the latter. It's just that when he made this choice, Coster secretly resented his own brain, if it wasn't for his fight with the intelligence officer, and directly pushed out a soldier to the top tank, this matter would be over. But the result of the two secretly fighting each other is to make things bigger and bigger, and now it has become impossible to launch a person top cylinder. And Miller used this as an excuse to stop his own appointment.
Thoughts raced through his mind, and he saw that Philid Zama had called a man in, and was looking sideways to ask him.
Koster wouldn't stop it, and he couldn't stop it, as Miller said, it wouldn't be a big deal if just one guard killed a civilian, and civilians were consumable items. But when the whole thing has expanded to the level of the civil uprising, it is no longer something that Koster can cover the sky with one hand. Even a person as powerful as the overseer Coster cannot reduce the big thing into a small thing, and the small thing into nothing.
Thinking of this, Coster stopped tapping his fingers on the table, and secretly decided to move to Miller after the meeting. Thinking that secretly harboring Naga is enough to remove the chief guard commander from power, and the question of the military heart of his guard regiment will be slowly resolved afterwards.
His thoughts stopped here, and Coster didn't mind his postponement.
Fielder quickly finished asking, his voice was not loud, and the question was more impartial, but the whole chamber was quiet and everyone could hear it clearly.
Then Fielder's face stopped with his usual mellow and kind smile, and his face became very serious: "Lord Koster, is this true?"
It was clear to Koster that Philip and Miller were exhaling through the same nostrils in this matter. At that moment, there was a helpless wry smile on his face: "It's indeed true." I didn't expect my men to be so bold. I think it was their captain who lax discipline that caused such a big mistake. ”
Philid ignored his evasion, neglect of discipline, and mistakes. The cunning mayor only grabbed Koster's identity and said, "As an overseer, Lord Koster's duty is to supervise those in power like us to do a good job in their own city management. As a supervisor, the lord did not rule strictly, and because of the improper handling of the matter, the conflict between the manager and the managed was intensified, which led to the rebellion in Madagarh, which made us very suspicious of Lord Koster's ability. ”
Coste's wry smile deepened, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Yes." The whole thing was my negligence. ”
Fielder looked around and said slowly, "I seconded His Excellency Miller's proposal, and the official appointment of Lord Coster as the overseer of the city was postponed until Lord Coster has the ability to match his status. ”
Miller's eyes also flashed, and Fielder's words were very vague, he only said that it would be postponed, but he did not say how long it would last, for fear that he wanted to drag it back indefinitely. Sure enough, he is a scheming fox!
"I'm against it!" Bill jumped out again, shouting, "How can administrative work be carried out properly without the guidance of an overseer?"
Miller didn't mind tearing up his face with Coster and pretending to be red-faced, anyway, the fig leaf had already been removed, and he immediately sneered: "Another riot? Or will it make the existing riot more intense?"
"You're spewing blood! The civil unrest has no affiliation with Lord Koster. ”
"What does that have to do with you?"
The Chief of Civil Affairs, Patrick Dali, had a look on his face that was almost like a mask, and said gently: "I have investigated, and there are two people who instigated the people to make trouble, one is Pride in the upper half of the city, and the other is Potter in the lower half of the city, and these two people are not peaceful figures. In my opinion, these two people should be dissatisfied with the status quo, fearing that the new overseers will lose the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and stir up trouble. Even if there is no incident of the guards killing and escaping, they will find other reasons to make trouble. For such street hooligans, just as there has never been a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, it can't be prevented, Coster is just relatively unlucky, and they seized the opportunity when there was such a bad element under his command. ”
"Everything is big because of the small. Miller said coldly: "The rule is strict, how can there be such a scum under Lord Coster? And if the rule is not strict, how can we be a fair and strict urban supervisor?"
