Chapter Seventy-One: Finding Someone
"We don't need to take the initiative to find him, we can let him come to us!"
Ekot tilted his head: "Do you mean to erect a flagpole and say that we are looking for him, or put a loudspeaker to call him for 24 hours?" ”
"You're humorous," Anna rolled her eyes, "didn't you say he fought against the Corneburton crowd for freedom in North Bay City?" ”
"Yes, it worked, but it doesn't seem to make this place any better." Ekot Road.
"But at least it shows that he still cares about the city." Anna points to the point, "And I happen to have something in my hands that could change the city." ”
Ekot was curious: "What? ”
Anna said: "Money, it's money!" What if I go to a local official and say I'm going to invest in building a factory and creating jobs? Even if a small airport is built here, it would only cost 18 million Cal US dollars, and the city could change a lot. ”
Ekot gradually sat up straight, "It makes sense, the wealth of our country is concentrated in Cognaberton, and the rest of the country is so poor that if you can give such a large sum of money, he will definitely come to you to express his goodwill." ”
Although there is a possibility that the plan will succeed, Anna's heart is still dripping blood.
Although she brought a total of 100 million Carl dollars out, it was still a little too fast to spend 10 million for a strange city.
Later, if it is not enough, Li Chen can only sell the fixed assets, anyway, she still has a lot of things in her name.
In this way, a group of people asked around the street and finally found the Commerce Bureau of North Bay City.
As soon as he heard that there were foreigners who wanted to invest, the director immediately rushed from his home.
I can't help it, I don't usually work at all, and it's normal to rest at home.
"You ...... Are you really going to invest in a small airport? ”
The director was a balding old man, and when he heard about Anna's plan, he only felt like he was dreaming.
Anna smiled and took out the proof of deposit, and Director Bald believed it.
It's not that he doesn't doubt it, but people with such financial resources have already run to the capital, and they can't come here to cheat.
Director Bald immediately said, "Two, I want to ask the mayor, you can wait a while." ”
Anna smiled softly, "No problem. ”
Director Bald returned to his office and immediately called the mayor:
"Mr. Mayor, a foreigner wants to invest 10 million Carl dollars in us, saying that it is to build a small airport, it is like pie in the sky!"
Naturally, the mayor didn't dare to make the decision: "You wait, I'll call that person." ”
As soon as he heard that it was that person, Director Bald also calmed down.
It was then that the mayor called the real person in North Bay.
……
in the living room.
Anna tilted her head and asked, "Ekot, do you know what tricks this man is having?" ”
"It seems to have something to do with plants, and I don't know anything else." ”
Plant? Ekot's own tricky straw is also related to plants.
It's no wonder that if you recognize this place, maybe there is something in common.
"Coffee, please."
A young girl served Anna a drink.
"Thank you," Anna said, taking her coffee, observing the girl.
How so...... Something strange......
She wore a thick cotton suit, a scarf, and snow boots on her feet, but only ...... Brought a wizard's hat.
That's right, it's the kind of dark purple wizard hat with a big brim and a pointed top, which looks very funny.
"The aesthetic of your film is quite chic." Anna and Ekot made a joke.
Ekot glanced at the wizard's hat and said unceremoniously, "No fool in our place would wear such an ugly hat. ”
Anna took a sip of her coffee, which didn't quite like it, and put it down.
"That just shows that it's so easy to work in this place that employees can cosplay when they go to work."
Ekot didn't give in, and drank it all as if it were water.
"One more pot!"
The young girl nodded immediately and trotted out.
After a while, an aunt who was obviously more robust actually brought a thermos bucket over.
The aunt was dressed differently from the young girl before, but the wizard's hat on her head was just as funny.
"Wait a minute," Anna called out to the aunt who had put down the thermos and was about to leave, "Are you celebrating the holidays today?" ”
The aunt shook her head and said, "Where are you still in the mood for the holidays when you are so poor?" ”
Anna pointed to the wizard's hat on her head and asked, "Do you have this special custom here?" ”
"What customs?" The aunt touched the wizard's hat, "It's cold, I can't stand it without a hat." ”
"That's not going to be the case, is it?" Anna stood up, walked out of the living room, and went to their office area.
I saw that in the small office, there were seven or eight staff members of different ages who had nothing to do.
The outfits were different, but the only thing they had in common was the dark purple burlesque wizard hat.
Anna knocked on the door, "Hey, guys, don't you all think you're wearing the same hat...... Isn't it a bit weird? ”
The men looked at each other for a moment, then suddenly stood up en masse, staring at Anna in unison.
"Why don't you wear a hat?" The aunt didn't know when she suddenly appeared next to Anna, her voice was cold and without a trace of emotion.
Anna turned her head, only to see that Auntie's eyes were wide open, and she didn't blink for a long time, but just looked straight at Anna, repeating mechanically in her mouth:
"Why don't you wear a hat?"
The clerks suddenly took a step forward and said in the same cold voice:
"Why don't you wear a hat?"
Hell yes!
Anna cursed inwardly.
Is this a chance encounter with a supernatural event, or is it a test of the other party?
But the best option is to get out of here before the attack has even begun.
"Ekot?"
Anna rushed out of the office area, only to see Ekot standing in the hallway, motionless.
"It's okay......" Anna breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he wasn't wearing a purple-black wizard's hat.
She walked over to Ekot and said, "Something isn't quite right here, you ......"
Immediately afterward, Anna discovers the anomaly.
Ekot didn't wear a wizard's hat, but straw was digging into his nostrils.
He has already been attacked!
It's just that the trick in his body is resisting this attack, not so much to protect the trickster, but to prevent the trickster from being killed by a trick other than himself.
But since Ekot was not yet controlled, Anna pulled him and ran out the door.
Multiple helpers, and more help in case of war.
The North Bay City Bureau of Commerce was small, and Anna didn't have much effort to pull Ekot to the door.
Seeing the light outside the door, Anna stopped.
Can't go from here!
Because Anna saw with her own eyes that the straw that had been slowly coming out of Ekot's nostrils was getting faster and faster.
The closer you get to the door, the faster Ekot recovers......
