Chapter IV: Inspections

"Young City Lord, it's so early today, you have been so diligent in the past few years. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" The old woman in her sixties suddenly stopped the young city lord who was walking leisurely on the side of the road with her hands behind her back, the old man was wearing a maple continent-style floral cardigan, gray hair, hastily tied a bun on the top of his head, and on the two-wheeled cart pushed in front of him, several layers of cage drawers were steaming hot, and the aroma of noodles floated around along the gaps in the cage drawers. The old man grinned and showed his still intact teeth, and his wrinkled face was full of smiles, and he shouted in a naturally loud voice, "It's not like those two slackers in my family, who don't get up until noon, and I really want to break their legs every time I see them." ”

"It's Aunt Jiao, you're not the same early. The young city lord changed his casualness at home, and his attitude was kind and a little distant and reserved, he nodded and smiled, "If you break their legs, they really can't get out of bed, and besides, the two of your family work night shifts, and they get up at noon is already very early, I know that the two of them are simply forgetful at work, and they are lazy, which I can't agree with." ”

"You speak for them every time, really. Although the old woman was complaining, she couldn't hide the smile on her face, "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, let's get a few buns and eat them while they're hot." ”

"How can I be. The young city lord shook his head with a smile, "When do you see me going out without breakfast, I promise, and my murderous sister can't either." ”

"Young City Lord, I didn't say you, this bun is not for you. The old woman said to Nunu behind the young city lord, "We all know that Miss Maiko follows you all the year round, when you eat, she never sits down to eat, and today you came out so early, Miss Maiko will definitely not have time to eat something, this is for her, you are not allowed to rob it." ”

"Hehe, Aunt Jiao, you treat her better than me, I'm going to be jealous. The young city lord nodded slightly, and the purple-clothed girl behind him stepped forward quickly, took the bag of buns held by the old woman in her hand, bowed slightly to the old man and thanked him, and immediately quickly retreated behind the young city lord, lowered her head again, and returned to a shadow-like state.

The place where several people stopped to talk was not far from the City Lord's Mansion, near the central square of the city. This is a small city for the scale of the city in the post-disaster era, and it can be seen from the hidden shield of the city that the entire city covers only about 20 square kilometers and has a population of no more than 10,000 people. Two ten-meter-wide roads crisscross the city center, dividing the city into four districts, with a circular plaza in the center where the city's administrative and functional buildings are concentrated.

In a small city, the tallest buildings are only about ten storeys high, and they are all concentrated in the outer areas of the city, and most of the rest are six or seven storey low-rise buildings, but here in the city center, most of them are some old, only one or two storey small bungalows, so that the overall look and feel of the city center is full of pastoral style and simple atmosphere.

Bidding farewell to the old woman selling steamed buns, the young city lord wandered aimlessly along the longitudinal street due north and south, and in the commercial districts on both sides of the street, all kinds of shops began to hang signs for business, and the roadside vendors, who were more dedicated than the shopkeepers, had already set up their stalls and shouted at the passers-by. Obviously, the young city lord was very well known among the citizens, and as he passed, the pedestrians and vendors on the side of the road took the initiative to put down their work and rushed to greet him, as if getting his smile and head in response would make them full of energy.

Fortunately, although the attitude of these people was enthusiastic, they still maintained enough restraint and would not interfere with the young city lord inspecting his territory, however, not all of them had this kind of consciousness, such as ......

"Yo, Third Young Master, it's really rare, why haven't you gone to look for our sisters these days. A coquettish voice came from an alley on the side of the street, and when he heard this voice, the young city lord immediately felt two strange sights behind him pierce his back like needles.

The corners of his mouth twitched, the young city lord coughed dryly, squeezed out a warm smile, and said with a hippie smile with a completely different attitude from the city residents, "Isn't this a little apricot girl, hahahaha, I can actually see you get up and go out in the morning, is this the second catastrophe about to begin?"

"No way, who made me unlucky. "Known as the little apricot girl, is a young woman with heavy makeup, dressed brightly, always with a provocative charm in her demeanor, hearing the young city lord's question, she pursed her lips and complained, "The sisters said that I screamed too loudly last night, and they couldn't be at peace, so today I was punished for running errands for them and going to the city hall to pay the management fee." By the way, Third Young Master, you will be the city lord in the future, help me talk to those brainless old men in the city hall, the time to pay the management fee is changed to the afternoon, and it is too painful to pay it early in the morning. ”

"Hehe, the four girls are in charge of government affairs. The young city lord spread his hands, blinked his eyes and said innocently, "I said it doesn't work, otherwise, you go to the four girls and talk about it?"

"No kidding. That little vinegar jar, when he saw us, he couldn't wait to peel off our skin, so I didn't want to be bored. Xiao Xing wrinkled her nose and snorted heavily, and no longer embarrassed the young city lord, twisted her waist and walked towards the city center, "Third young master, I'll pay the money first, you have to come to see us often, the sisters are looking forward to your coming." ”

"Got it, got it, cough cough cough. The young city lord covered his mouth with a dry cough, and waited until Xiao Xing left before regaining his serious expression, "Xiao Wu, you didn't see anything just now, you didn't hear anything, right?" ”

"Yes, Lord. The purple-clothed girl said in a deep voice, "The subordinates didn't see the lord and Miss Xiaoxing talking happily, nor did they hear the lord promise that Miss Xiaoxing would go to them often. ”

So, there was silence all around, and after a long time, the young city lord sighed and said helplessly, "Xiao Wu, you have also learned badly." ”

The girl in purple did not speak, although her face was covered and she could not see her expression, but from her only eyes that were exposed, a thick gentle smile could be seen.

"Hmph, however, teasing the master is punishable, since you dare to do this, you must have come to your senses. The young city lord pursed his lips and said with a strange expression, "Remember to prepare props for punishment at night." ”

"Yes. The voice was as small as a gnat, and the skin at the corners of the purple-clothed girl's eyes was flushed, but the two big eyes were curved like crescents, and they looked exceptionally beautiful.

"Hmph, dare to laugh, when the time comes, there will be a time for you to cry. The young city lord himself knew that his words were not very convincing, so he had to touch his nose and change the topic, "What is today's itinerary, and are there any special arrangements?"

"Everything was fine in the morning. The girl in purple immediately resumed her work and said lightly, "According to your instructions last night, it is a routine inspection." ”

"What about the order and choice?" the young city lord asked, "where to go first?"

"Academies, training grounds, plantation buildings, early warning centers, and textile mills. The purple-clothed girl quickly replied, "Patrol in order." ”
