Just as the group was wandering outside, in the courtyard of Showa's house, Showa Ruri and others were sitting in the hall with sad faces.

"The City Lord's Mansion responded to the question of intercepting all the way, saying that it is starting an investigation, so let's wait patiently. Showa Ruri said: "As for the list of suspicions we provided, they believe that without conclusive evidence, this list is useless at all." ”

"The urine of the City Lord's Mansion has been appreciated for a long time, which is not surprising. The old man Hualang said: "How many people in Haicheng don't want Showa to be promoted? No one wants to be on our side at this time, and they don't want to offend those families, let alone a puppet city lord's mansion." ”

The city lord's mansion of Haicheng is not very powerful.

This is because of the law of the strong in the inner world, in Haicheng is still respected by strength, and the strongest Tianlan Academy is above the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord's Mansion is just an institution responsible for the operation of Haicheng and related trivial matters.

The City Lord's Mansion is the puppet of the major forces in Haicheng, and the people in it are all installed by the major powers, so some small things are simply solved, and major things need to be decided by the major families and forces behind them, after some interest exchanges or consultations.

Showa's promotion is not a simple matter.

This means that in the inner world, a second sea city is about to rise.

For Haicheng, this is an opportunity and a disaster, depending on how to deal with it.

"That being said, if you don't get the City Lord's Mansion done, I'm afraid there is little hope for this promotion. Mitsui Hee said.

"Among the twelve families, Nozawa and Aso have always had a close relationship with the Showa family, Kimura and Yamashita are partners of the Kamei Hanaro family, and Eguchi and Fujiwara are the in-laws of the Kawashima family," Ruri Showa said slowly: "Twelve votes, we have six votes, it's just a draw, it's not that there is no chance." ”

There is a deacon meeting in the city lord's mansion, with a total of twelve deacons, each of whom is a representative of the twelve major families of Haicheng, and some major matters will be discussed at the deacon meeting and decided by voting.

As early as when the Showa family was about to be promoted, they had already greeted the six families in Haicheng who had a close relationship with the three southern towns, and they also received the secret support of the six families.

After all, the six major families have a close relationship with the three major towns in the south, and once Showa is promoted, the six major families will also gain huge benefits from it, and may even outperform the other six major families.

"The eldest lady is right, but the problem now is that there is not enough time. The old man Hualang said: "The news has come out from Tianlan Academy, and two days later, the second round of assessment will begin. ”

Showa Ruri frowned, it was indeed a little too late, if you don't get enough votes before the end of the assessment, even if you pass the assessment, the promotion will fail.

Because the assessment is to test the Showa family's foundation in cultivating transcendentals, the better the performance, the more it proves that the Showa family is extraordinary, and this is only a part, without the support of other families, promotion will be difficult and full of variables.

"Is it possible to win over a family within two days?" said Showa Ruri.

"It's difficult," the old man Hua Lang shook his head, "The eldest lady should know that the relationship between the twelve major families and the northern and southern regions, and the reason why the other six major families oppose it, isn't it because they have interests in the ten northern villages behind it?"

Showa Liuli is silent, the twelve families of Haicheng, the reason why they stand tall in Haicheng, in addition to the high-level transcendental, also has its own heritage.

In addition to the ordinary battles, there were also some commercial contacts, and coincidentally among the twelve major families, six of the six families were biased towards the three towns in the south, and the remaining six families were biased towards the ten villages in the north.

Although the competition in the ten villages in the north is cruel, and the resources are not as rich as those in the south, they have unique and precious resources, which are very popular in the world, and presumably the population base of the three towns in the south and the ten villages in the north is also relatively large.

There are many people and many needs, so don't talk about the evil of the ten villages, even if it is a devil, the six major families don't care, as long as it can bring benefits, it can make the family keep up with the next level.

"If you want to win over a family temporarily, I'm afraid the price you pay will be very huge," the old man Hualang said, "These guys are all masters who eat people and don't spit out bones, and if they have this opportunity, they will definitely slaughter them again, and they will not be guaranteed, if they still fail to be promoted in the end, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"But we have no other choice. Mitsui Xi said: "Only when the town government is promoted, can we in the south break the shackles and get out of that canyon." ”

Everyone looked at Ruri Showa in unison, and now the situation is in a dilemma, it depends on what Miss Showa will do next.

At this moment, Ruri Showa also felt a lot of pressure.

"I'll think about it," Showa Ruri said: "Hee and Hualang seniors, please go to Tianlan Academy, find an acquaintance, and see if you can know the content of the assessment in two days......

The two nodded, and each got up to leave.

Soon, in the hall, only Showa Ruri was left.

Do you really want to give up? Ruri Showa frowned, and her face behind the veil was full of sadness. No, maybe there's still a chance...... A thought popped into her head.

As night fell, Li Qingyuan and his entourage returned to the courtyard unsatisfied.

Haicheng is very lively, the resources are very rich, there are many things that cannot be seen in the Showa region, especially the materials and species of some sea beasts, which opened the eyes of Li Qingyuan and others.

They walked from the south city to the north city, from Tianlan College to the east coastline, the faint fishy smell made people have the illusion of swimming in the sea, as well as the beauties along the way, various shops and so on.

It was a very fulfilling day.

After returning to the courtyard, Li Qingyuan said goodbye to everyone and returned to his yard, he just took out the lazy treasure, and Showa Liuli quietly appeared in his yard.

"Why are you here?" Li Qingyuan was surprised.

Although she has a close relationship with Showa Ruri, Showa Ruri is a high-level transcendent after all, and she has actually been trying her best to avoid Li Qingyuan, and it is the first time that she has taken the initiative to come to the door.

"I have something to say to you. "Showa Rurido.

"Please come in the house. ”

The lights in the room turned on, and the two sat opposite each other, and Showa Ruri said about the current predicament he was experiencing, and finally said, "I want to ask you for help." ”

"Do you want me to help you win over the Miyamoto family?" Li Qingyuan discovered her plan at a glance.

"That's right, now only you can save the promotion of the Showa family. Showa Ruri was not surprised by his words, no one was stupid, and it was not difficult for Li Qingyuan to guess.

In Showa Ruri's view, Li Qingyuan is the only hope of the Showa family at this moment, he has the lost secret weapon of the Miyamoto family in his hands, if he uses this as a condition to negotiate with the Miyamoto family, he will definitely be able to win over another family, so that among the twelve deacons, the Showa family has seven votes.

This is the last hope in Showa Ruri's heart.
