Next, all participants began to vote. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" On one side of the venue, as the presiding officer of the meeting, Inspector Mishi Fujiwara's face was gloomy as if he was about to drip water, but he still calmly presided over the meeting in accordance with the procedure, "This is a secret ballot, one vote per person, and only one candidate is allowed on the face of the ballot, and the ballot papers that are written, not written, or written without the name of the candidate will be invalid." ”

The meeting to decide the fate of Brocade Castle has been going on for half an hour, and after Sun Heuk, the oldest and one of the highest-ranking officials among all officials, has mournfully remembered the life and deeds of the former castle lord, the presiding officer of the meeting, Fujiwara Yu, will read the contributions of the two city lord candidates to the city in the past six months. Of course, these are only superficial efforts, in the past two hundred years, there have been seven such meetings, and none of them have really decided the final winner according to the contribution, but the process is the process after all, even if everyone knows that it is just a formality, this process still has to be completed.

This time, however, it seemed that the officials had run out of patience to go through the motions, and as Fujiwara read the candidates' contributions, many of the participants whispered from time to time, and the expressions on their faces were wonderful.

The fact that they would do so does not mean that they have any opinion on Fujiwara, because under normal circumstances, the person who reads this part of the material should not be Fujiwara Yu, but another person who is not present at the venue at all. According to the rules, only those who are qualified to be ranked with Sun He are important ministers who are enough to be considered official leaders, and among the important ministers of this generation, there is no second candidate except Du Ming. However, Du Ming did not appear at the meeting venue at all, so Du Ming's task could only be replaced by the meeting host.

Being able to sit in the position of city officials in Brocade City, these people will definitely not be idiots, no one will be stupid enough to think that Du Ming is absent for no reason, looking at his empty position, and then looking at another empty seat where no one is there, thinking of the rumor that woke him up in the early hours of this morning, the officials only felt a chill down their spines.

Yes, in addition to Du Ming, there is another person who is absent, and the three words Mai Fujiwara on the name plate already explain her identity. Over the years, Fujiwara Mai has been like Zhang San's shadow, always hiding behind Zhang San, making it easy to ignore her other identity - the chief of the City Guard, Fujiwara Mai's absolute loyalty to Zhang San, so that many people forget that although Zhang San is the nominal commander of the City Guard, his control of the City Guard is carried out through Fujiwara Mai, and at this time, the most loyal supporter also did not appear, and the meaning contained in it became more intriguing.

Instead of reminding the attendees to be silent with a gavel as in the past, the moderator, O Fujiwara, hurriedly read the script as if he were going through the motions and went straight to the voting.

"Now, the voting begins. Fujiwara finally knocked down the gavel, "Voting time, twenty minutes." ”

"Tut, secret ballot. Even on such a solemn occasion, the female leopard still crossed her legs very unimagedly, holding her metal wine jug in her mouth, and said vaguely, "It will make people daunting." ”

"Hehe, everyone should be responsible for their own choices. The crow was not affected by the atmosphere of the venue at all, and still said leisurely, "What you do, you have to bear the consequences, this is a truth that everyone should understand." ”

The crow didn't intend to suppress his voice at all, his words were clearly transmitted throughout the venue through the loudspeaker on the table, and this meaningful answer made many undecided officials shake their bodies and hesitate to write.

"Hehehehe, why be so nervous. The crow smiled and said, "It's not terrible to bear the consequences, as long as the choice is right, there will be no problems, do you think this is the truth?"

"I've heard some very bad rumours since yesterday. Of course, the crow knew that no one would answer, he just sang a one-man show to himself, "Well, very irresponsible rumors. ”

"Since my father retired to the second line due to illness five years ago, I and the fourth child have been acting as the city lord. In the past five years, I have put in a lot of effort for the sake of Brocade City, and everyone should see it. ”

Dozens of officials made eye contact with each other, and in their memories, it is difficult to say whether the crow paid for his heart, but at least he paid for blood, someone else's blood. Zhang Tong was inexplicably seriously ill that year, and issued an order authorizing him and Zhang Lu to manage the city, he took this opportunity to purge the middle and high-level of the city guard, and then used the power of the city guard to coerce the administrative officials, expanding his power little by little, and finally completely hollowed out Zhang Tong. During this period, hundreds of people died inexplicably, and everyone in the city was in danger, which made people see his crazy side.

All the officials who lived through that period of history will not forget the crow's brazenness in the first place, and now that he mentions it, the threat is already coming out.

"But even so, there are still irresponsible rumors circulating, and it makes me sad. The smile on the crow's face didn't look very sad at all, "There are rumors that I want to destroy this city that I have poured my heart and soul into, and the person who said this is simply irresponsible." Fortunately, you are all smart people, you must not believe this kind of stupid words, and you will make the right choice, right? I believe in your ability to understand right and wrong, and I believe that you will never let me down, hehehehe. ”

"Brother. The crow's eerie laughter made most people creepy, but Zhang Lu was not affected, and the girl who had not said a word before now held her chin and said slowly, "You remember, I said, I will stop you." ”

"Stop me?" said the crow unconcernedly, "what do you want to stop me? ”

"Obviously, no. Zhang Lu smiled and said, "Of course, to stop you from destroying my sister's favorite city." ”

"It's ridiculous. The crow sneered, "Little Four, you won't be deceived by that rumor, it's not like you." ”

"Is it really a rumor? I don't think so. Zhang Lu shook his head and said, "If it's really a rumor, why don't my brother explain why Uncle Du Ming didn't come today." ”

"I'm also weird about that. The crow looked puzzled, "Uncle Du is my most respected elder, and he has always supported my work without reservation, and he should attend such an important meeting today no matter what." ”

"It's unfortunate because Uncle Du Ming was assassinated last night. Zhang Lu sneered, "The time of the assassination happened to be shortly after he confirmed your purpose brother, and then passed the news to everyone, how about it, isn't it a coincidence?"
