"The last two!"

In just twenty days, there were only two people left in the group who came in behind Du Lin, and the others died in various accidents. Some slipped in the bathroom and were suffocated by wet towels, some were hit by instruments while working on equipment, and some were accidentally electrocuted... As of this morning, only the last two were left. Just when Du Lin was about to continue arranging for their unexpected deaths, they jumped off the third floor of the prison area on their own initiative.

They were lucky. They broke their legs and arms, and Du Lin suspected that someone had greeted the warden. They were allowed to be released on medical parole and left the main gate of the prison in the same car just now. Looking at the slowly closing iron door, Du Lin withdrew his gaze, walked to the ladder in the corner and sat down, with his hands interlaced on his knees and his chin propped up. The people around looked at this side with strange eyes. Maybe people outside didn't know how these people died, but there were always people inside who knew.

For the first time, they were frightened from the inside out by Du Lin, a young "giant".

It is best not to provoke such people if you can. No one wants to die inexplicably in various accidents one day, and to be used as a negative role model after death.

Life inside the prison becomes more relaxed, but things outside the prison suddenly become tense.

The governor personally serves as the director of the State Contraband Bureau (RCA), and branches have been set up in various places. Vertical management prevents the mayors and congressmen of the following cities from intervening in the work of the Contraband Bureau. According to the provisions related to the Second Prohibition, the Contraband Bureau has the power to require any person or vehicle that "looks suspicious" to be inspected. Bureau members who refuse to accept the inspection have the right to use force after warning. All RCA specifics The local government has no right to interfere with matters to be handled. Only after applying to the state RCA can the files be accessed.

Some people think that the leader of the new party has gone crazy because of the death of his child, and has actually introduced such a nonsense bill and agency, treating all bootleggers and contraband dealers as enemies, so much so that in some areas, they rely on these two aspects to make money. The gangs are clamoring to issue a death warrant against the leader of the new party. He used public weapons for private matters, causing great social turmoil.

But is this the truth

"No, this is not his purpose!" The Governor leaned on the thick pillow. Although his body below the neck no longer had any intuition, even drinking milk was useless, but his mind did not change because of this. Got to be slow. On the contrary, it may be that the body that was paralyzed from the neck down lost control and allowed the body to provide a lot of nutrients to nourish the brain. He felt that his brain was more functional than before.

The maid wiped the drool from his mouth with a clean handkerchief. He nodded slightly and said thank you. In front of others, he was always a graceful gentleman. Even if he was paralyzed in bed, he was still a familiar and charming old man in people's eyes. In front of him stood more than a dozen important officials from the old Kansas party. The old man talked eloquently, "I still know something about this old enemy of the new party. You may not know it well. In fact, I and He both graduated from Imperial College, and I graduated a few years before him.”

The Imperial Royal High School is the name after the name change. Before the name change, it was called "Yuoxing Noble Academy". It only accepts nobles for admission, and it also has extremely strict standards and requirements for the admitted nobles. It is known as the "Cradle of Politicians." . The original purpose of establishing this school was not to be a cradle. It was purely for the Yaoxing Empire royal family to find a group of subordinates with sufficient tacit understanding for their heirs, so that the heirs of these nobles could study with the heirs of the royal family. It’s just about not making learning boring.

But gradually, the dean of the college was dissatisfied with being the director of a "kindergarten". He began to carefully select the nobles who were admitted, and gradually made the college of nobles the highest institution of education in the empire. This school enrolls no more than fifty students each year, and all those who enroll are the proud ones of heaven. After the new party established a new order, the college was renamed the Imperial Royal College of Higher Education in order to eradicate the "toxicity".

Hearing what the Governor said, many of the old party members showed a slightly strange look. They did not expect that this backbone of the old party was actually an alumnus of the new party's vanguard.

“He is a very pragmatic person!” The Governor-General put an impressive label on the new party leader Maggs in one sentence. “His ideas are very avant-garde and he has very good means. After one year of school, he is The student president of the college and the vice president of the alumni association, I have met him many times and talked to him many times. He has very lofty ambitions..." When he said this, the governor couldn't help laughing, "Indeed, He achieved his goals in life and was an amazing guy. The most memorable thing I remember about him was at the alumni meeting the year he graduated.”

The Governor suddenly closed his mouth, and after a moment of silence he sighed leisurely, "According to the college's practice, some well-known bands and stars will be invited to the alumni meeting during the graduation season to enhance the atmosphere. This is what Mags did. .You may not imagine what he did!”

"He donated all the money he had for activities to retired soldiers, and then invited a team of disabled soldiers to the scene. I still remember the uniforms of those soldiers that were stained dark red with blood, and their Empty sleeves and trousers. He taught me a lesson and taught everyone a lesson. He told the soldiers about the situation on the border and the insidiousness and cunning of the Federals. He spoke of the inevitability of war. It will break out within five years, and the Federation, which has made all preparations, will definitely catch the Empire, which is still dreaming in its comfort zone, by surprise."

"To be honest, among the many people who laughed at him, I was one of them. You may have been young at that time, and some of you were not yet born, so you may not be able to understand our confidence in the empire. We always believe that the empire is invincible, but We were all wrong. The war broke out in the ninth month of the fourth year, and our border defense system only lasted two days before it was completely broken!"

"Magus, who was regarded as a joke, reappeared in people's eyes. Once again, he made us feel a... I can't tell you, a very powerless feeling. At that time, he joined the army and was a member of the 1st Army Infantry Company. Company Commander. You can’t imagine the shock he gave me when he stood on AT1!”

"Next thing you should all know, after a long war, we lost and he won!"

"I know him better than all of you, and better than ninety-nine percent of the people in the empire. I can say that I know him best. So the establishment of RCA is definitely not the product of his impulse, it is his calmness In a rational state, no one will object to the decision of a father who has just lost his child and is still in pain, even if people know that this decision may be wrong. He took advantage of himself and most of the people, and then calmly conquered our army. "

“Once the work of RCA is carried out, it means that on our territory, there will be a department that is not under our control and that also has supervision and law enforcement powers over us, but we have no restrictions on this department. Method. When they have needs and are necessary, they can even sacrifice the political lives and interests of some people to forcefully break the balance between us!"

"He is an excellent hunter and a very ruthless hunter, because even his son will become a bait for him to attract prey!"

"And you, be careful!"

The governor's words made everyone's hearts agitate. Before they came here, they felt that the establishment of the RCA was a complete nonsense. Why should a newly established organization eliminate the smuggling and trade of all contraband? With Magus' mouth? But now after hearing the words of His Excellency the Governor, these people immediately felt that RCA was definitely not a hasty decision, but was well prepared. Even if there was no accident involving Maggs' son, he would have found another excuse to establish a UCA or ACA in another form.

"Your Majesty the Governor, what should we do next?" The speaker was a member of Cheler City. The old guy had stayed in Cheler all his life. Whether it was the new party or the old party, he could only obey.

"Befriend them, give them money, give them women, give them everything they want, completely paralyze them, and then look for the right opportunity and create opportunities!"

"Those old guys above will clean up the mess for you!"

"Okay, I'm tired after talking so much. You have your own work to do, so go back!"

Peter, who was the last to leave the room, was deep in thought as he walked. Before coming here, he did not think that an RCA could undermine his control over the city, but after listening to the words of his governor-in-law, he became a little cautious and did the same. Some decisions were made.

After returning, a piece of gossip spread quickly in Tenel City. It was said that Ernst's sister, the mayor's little lover, was beaten by the mayor and kicked out. This explosive news is enough to make many people unable to recover in a short period of time. You must know that Ernst has had good years, and the most important thing is the relationship between his sister and the mayor. Relying on this relationship, his smuggling business flourished.

If he loses this coat and protection, he will immediately be bitten to pieces by those with green eyes around him. So as soon as he learned about the situation, he rushed to the mayor's manor, but unfortunately, he was asked to leave by the housekeeper before he even entered.

A cold wind blew, and he looked up at the sky. The sky had changed!
