Chapter 72. It shouldn't be like this
"Mr. Councillor, half a month has passed, has there been any result of the discussion in the parliament?"
A well-dressed Sakaz man stood across from his desk, looking anxiously at each other.
Doyle, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, raised his head, looked through the lenses, and said patiently in a gentle tone: "My dear friend, you know, there is a strict judicial process in Gotham, and the parliament is actively discussing it, and I believe that a new bill will be passed in a while, and the parliament will give you a satisfactory explanation." ”
With such perfunctory rhetoric again, the Sakaz people could not hide the loss in their hearts, and said with difficulty: "Now the court is auctioning off the property of the Sakaz people in the quarantine area......"
He wanted to say that it was illegal, but when it came to his lips, it turned into another sentence: "Can you exchange it for some supplies, life in the quarantine area is very difficult, some people are already sick, they need doctors and medicine, and children also need food......"
"I think it should be possible, so go to my secretary and he will give you a form that will satisfy you."
"Great, thank you, Doyle, you are truly my best friend and I will be forever grateful to you!"
Sakaz was very excited, a thousand thanks, when he walked to the door, Councilor Doyle helped the frame of the glass, and said lightly: "David, what you need now is patience, be more patient, I am going to Victoria next week, and I will not be in Gotham for half a month, so don't come here to look for me for the time being." ”
“…… Okay, thank you, Congressman Doyle. ”
Sakaz's joy was instantly diluted, and he suffered countless blank eyes and insults, he already understood what Doyle meant, even if the other party was still in Gotham, he would not see him for half a month.
As he was leaving, he passed by two visitors, and even accidentally bumped into one of them, whispered sorry, and left in a hurry.
……
Zhou Jinru watched the unknown Sakaz man leave, and sighed: "I didn't expect to see the Sakaz people here. ”
"Of course, some of the Sakaz people with heads and faces will not be expelled for the time being, and the remaining use value cannot be wasted until they are drained of the last vestige of oil and water by Gotham."
"Oh, you sound like the ruler here."
"I'm telling the truth."
The silver fox pushes open the office door and is greeted by a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
"Ms. Silver Fox, I didn't expect to see you so soon, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, thank you."
"May I ask who this is ......?"
Zhou Jinru stretched out his right hand: "Thomas Courtman, Lady Silver Fox's personal doctor." ”
I'm afraid this identity is fake, Ms. Silver Fox is a strong person, and her personal doctor can speak so calmly in front of her?
Silver Fox didn't care what the other party thought at all, and introduced: "This is Doyle, one of the members of the Gotham Council, in charge of business dealings, both rich and powerful. ”
"Thank you, but I'm nothing compared to you."
Doyle invited Silver Fox and Zhou Jinru to the living room behind his office, and personally poured a cup of black tea for the two of them.
"Lady Silver Fox represents Victoria's consortium, I'm so busy that I don't even have time to greet you personally, I'm so sorry."
In the face of Doyle's compliment, the silver fox picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said noncommittally: "Everyone is busy, I just saw the Sakaz people leaving here, how are they now?" ”
"You don't have to care about those demon guys, they are really disgusting, just now, they are still making more greedy demands in a despicable and shameless way, to be honest, Victoria's aid to Gotham every year is very large, and those demon guys, for four years, they haven't donated even a penny to the council, and they don't want to think about who took them in the first place!"
The silver fox looked at Zhou Jinru beside him, and the man looked out the window while drinking tea, with an indifferent expression.
"But I've heard in Victoria that the Sakaz people are very skilled in source stone skills, and they are involved in the transformation of a considerable part of Gotham's energy hubs, and even provide a lot of taxes in terms of doing business."
Doyle put away his smile and said solemnly: "Miss Silver Fox, what you said is right, I have to admit that those demon clansmen are good for Gotham, but they made a serious mistake this time and touched a red line that can't be touched at all!" ”
"What is it?"
"They dare to question the decision of the Gotham Council and challenge the authority of the legislators, which is absolutely not allowed!"
Silver Fox waved his hand: "Don't be so nervous, I'm just a little curious, okay, now let's talk about the content of work." ”
……
Two hours later, Zhou Jinru and Silver Fox left the parliamentarian building, and the conversation came to an end for the time being.
"What you want to know, the parties have basically told you, what do you think now?"
"Commoners can't challenge the power of the aristocracy, and when it comes to being parliamentarians, in fact, they are all nobles in the traditional sense, and I'm a little disappointed."
Zhou Jinru still thought that they could play any tricks, it turned out to be the same old thing, the parliamentarians thought that the Sakaz people had challenged the rules they had made, and their rules were that the demon clans were inferior, not even the honorary Gotham people, it was a matter of dignity, how could they tolerate it?
It's a farce.
"But Silver Fox, it seems that you can wantonly ravage the dignity of the councillors......"
"Of course, behind me is Victoria, the father of the councillors, they can't even kneel, how can they put a stand in front of me? The Sakaz people do not have a country of their own, and even many people consider themselves inferior, born sinners, born to atone for their sins, inferiority, submissive, and easier to be controlled. ”
Gotham is like a cage, a cage wrapped in civilization, taming the Sakazis, turning them into a lowly race, and they hypnotize themselves, as they should.
These tragic encounters were unimaginable in the era of the rise of the royal court, and the establishment of Kazdale straightened the broken backbone of the Sakaz people and awakened the true desire in their hearts.
But where is the royal court now?
And where is that white dress?
"What are you thinking?"
"Athos, it shouldn't be like this, the Sakaz people shouldn't be like this, it's slavery, can you imagine seeing slavery in 1037?"
The silver fox wondered, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"I ......"
There was a voice in Zhou Jinru's heart that told him that he had to do something, even if it was only one person.
"You want to help those Sakaz's?"
The silver fox stared into his eyes.
