Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 141 Gossiping Beyond Life Forms
"I saw a pitch black... Something seems to be gnawing around me... Knack, Kack... It doesn't stop for a moment! Something is being torn apart!"

Chen Yan scratched his head:

"Vivian, that might be the sound of rabbits eating grass."

The microphone suddenly fell silent.

A few seconds later, Vivienne's surprised voice appeared.

"Hey?! It really seems to be the sound of rabbits gnawing on the meadow!"

Chen Yan felt that she was coaxing a child who didn't know anything.

His heart broke down a little, he opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, he could only temporarily give up the idea of ​​exploring the secrets of the zoo.

Fortunately, Vivienne's consciousness has been further restored - her logic has become clearer.

"Mr. Chen Yan, where did we talk just now? Oh! By the way! Father Andil!"

Hearing Vivienne's gradually clear words, Chen Yan finally got a little excited.

"I heard that he was sent to Yanan City by the Holy Choir of the Imperial Capital. No one knows the specific reason...

Everyone only knows that he is a good man, and he often buys food for the children of the poor out of his own pocket. He is serious and meticulous when anyone asks him to preside over weddings and funerals.

He doesn't even have a problem with corner girls - he treats them patiently and doesn't treat them like women - so he has their respect...even if they're just a bunch of...you know what I mean, don't you? "

Vivian's thoughts became more and more clear, and she even clearly expressed her likes and dislikes.

This is a good thing.

"My dad often takes me to him, and even though he doesn't trust him, he respects him—and he always asks him questions."

"I don't know much, I only hear them talking about workers' wages, strikes, social insurance and so on..."

Chen Yan'an quietly listened to Vivian's words.

"Father Andil seems to be very concerned about those people in the lower city."

"When I was making tea for them, I overheard that although Father Andil was a member of the choral troupe, he also joined the Labor Party and was a Labor Party member in the imperial capital...

It seemed to be the first time in the history of the empire that a clergy member joined a certain party. "

Chen Yan couldn't help but whispered: "Maybe this is the reason why he was sent to Yanan City?"

Vivienne was noncommittal: "I don't know...Mr. Chen, I only know that Father Andil talked about the workers in Yanan City many times...

Once, he and his father had a violent quarrel, and he thought his father's proposal was too gentle to have any effect.

He even scolded Dad, saying that Dad and the others would never win-this is already a serious accusation. "

Chen Yan realized that the development of things might be a little different from what he imagined.

He asked in a very normal tone: "Vivienne, Mr. Johnny McGowan has a list of workers' names, do you know where it is?"

Vivian's voice immediately appeared from the microphone:

"I seem to have seen Dad put the list in the mailbox...Dad was very abnormal during that time, as if he was a different person. That morning, he even delivered the mail in his pajamas...I was afraid of this father."

Her tone became absent-minded: "As for that letter... the courier on High Street receives letters once a day, and the letter must have been delivered to the recipient by now."

By the time this was said, Vivienne's logic was already very clear.

Now that the logic is clear, more memories must be restored.

"Vivienne, do you still remember when Mr. McGwen delivered this letter?"

A thoughtful voice came from the microphone.

"This... I forgot..."

Just as Chen Yan was about to be disappointed, she suddenly heard her continue:

"Although I don't know when he delivered the letter, I know who he delivered it to...I have seen that person before."

"His name is Jack Baldo."

what!
Sure enough!

Chen Yan swung his fist fiercely, gritting his teeth so as not to let out a cry of excitement.

Things turned out exactly as I imagined!
The envelope containing the list of Labor candidates went to Jack Baldo and became part of Johnny Mergowyn's legacy!

And I who have Johnny Mergowyn's [Undead Man's Will] will get his inheritance—with that letter!
Thinking of this, Chen Yan looked forward to Jack Baldo's visit even more—if he could really come tonight.

Chen Yan thought a lot unconsciously:
As long as he gets that letter, he will know who the candidates for the Labor Party are in this general election, and he can go find them and ask them about their political opinions.

He will see from their rhetoric and speech what the Labor Party really is - is it a rule-maker as powerless as the Conservative Party to change society!
From these thoughts, Chen Yan realized that he was a nosy person.

He unconsciously wants to take care of these "nosy things", which seems to be his instinct as an animal, and it's an ideal that he can't help insisting on in his mind.

Chen Yan's eyes lit up.

Yes, these ideas are my ideals.

Why do I have such an ideal?
Just like some people like to play billiards and some people like to watch horse races—ideals are engraved in genes and born from the heart, which makes no sense.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan seemed to have discovered something very important.

For the first time in his life, he had such an idea, not just "struggling" like a walking dead for three meals a day tomorrow.

He was so excited that even the muscles in his face trembled.

Amidst Chen Yan's continuous excitement, Vivian's voice sounded again:

"Jack Baldo is a very strange person. Although he looks ordinary, speaks with a foreign accent, and speaks in a normal way, but... he is very enthusiastic."

Vivian emphasized the word "enthusiasm".

"Dad once took me to meet him at the Walker Street cafe and we talked to him about the workers."

"There was a problem with the mechanical equipment in a factory, and many people died because of it, but the factory owner hired a very powerful lawyer. At the end of the first trial, he insisted on putting the blame on the workers——

The charge of [not following the safety operation rules for production activities] became the result of the first trial, and the families of these workers who died even wanted to pay part of the money back to the factory owner. "

"This is a very bad incident, and once the law is enforced according to this result, this case will become a nightmare case.

The empire implements the [case law] system, that is to say, this case will become a case - all similar cases that occur after that will be judged according to the way this case is handled. "

Chen Yan was shocked: "If that's the case, it's really terrible."

Vivienne sighed from the microphone, and the girl's weak voice gave her a lovely tone.

"Yes, fortunately, there is still an appeal and a second trial."
