Chapter 118 European Residency of the Council
Time flies by.

August fifteen.

This month is still quite difficult for many cities in the northern hemisphere. It belongs to the tail of summer. Girls will wear shorts and show slender and tight thighs, while men like to drink cold beer with friends at night and talk loudly.

Of course, nowadays, the Temple and the Earth Destiny Council occupy the absolute mainstream of the topic. People are talking about the ring, superhumans, and the growing power of the Council, feeling that it has only been less than two months, this fucking world It has completely changed.

During this period of time, explosive news continued to ravage people's nerves: moth-eating nests appeared in a certain city; a certain country cut off part of its military power to the council; the temple gave the council incredible magical materials and allowed it to use The way of modern science to study the extraordinary power...

The Earth Destiny Council is growing crazily, gradually gaining global authority at an unprecedented speed.

However, while the world is changing, the chaos has not unexpectedly increased much more than usual, especially in August, when the hot weather can make people irritable and cause the crime rate to soar.

But Francesco Ricci felt that the years were quiet and good. Even though he was patrolling the streets boringly and the hot summer heat made a fine layer of sweat on his skin, he still felt in a good mood.

The reason is simple. The recent crime rate in Florence, where he works, is too low. As a local policeman, he only needs to look left and right every day, patrolling fixed streets, and never receives reports. The biggest case Tian accepted was to help the elderly Mrs. Alanna find her lost pet cat.

The low crime rate can be attributed to the excellent governance ability of the city's top executives, the relatively high moral standards of the residents, or the people's life is rich and there is no need to rob or steal.

But everyone knows that there is one and only one important reason for the precipitous decline in the crime rate in Florence——

Last week, on August [-]th, Florence became one of the seven stations of the Earth Destiny Council!

On each of the seven continents of the world, a city will be selected as the seat of the Earth Destiny Council.

After becoming the resident of the Council, the city will be stripped from the original country's administrative system as a "world public territory". In legal terms, sovereignty belongs entirely to the Council.

It sounds unbelievable, but in modern society, part of a country's territory can be taken away without any regard for sovereignty.

But when you think about it carefully, this phenomenon is quite reasonable: the Earth Destiny Council obeys the orders of the temple upwards, and downwards it commands the secular power. Although it is still "young", it is indeed a natural "emperor" and can do almost anything .

However, even if the resident city becomes the exclusive "World Public Territory" of the Council, the Council will sign the "World Public Territory Escrow Agreement" with the country before moving in, and the resident city will be "attached" back to the original country and thrown to the Their policing and taxing powers, at first glance, appear to be the same as before.

Of course, even though it looks unchanged on the surface, the deep-seated influence is still great. The sudden drop in crime rate in Florence is the best proof.

In this era when the temple was born, anyone with the slightest thought of "becoming extraordinary" dare not act wildly in front of the temple, and even the council has become a respected organization, even if it is a habitual offender. Will commit crimes under the watchful eye of the council.

——everyone longs to wear a ring, even knowing that it is a miracle with a small probability.

There will be no petty theft, for fear of entering the blacklist of the temple and losing the opportunity to wear the ring.

For these reasons, Francesco was having a good time these days.

Today, as usual, he put on the uniform of the local police and patrolled in the sun.

Florence is a city full of cultural atmosphere. As one of the core areas of the Renaissance, even the air seems to be filled with the flavor of humanity and romance. Let’s take a look at the most proud place in this city: the Uffizi Gallery , Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, Michelangelo Square...

However, no matter how romantic it is, it should still be hot. Florence can be classified as a subtropical humid climate. It was hot and humid in August. When Francesco finished patrolling half the street, his police uniform was almost soaked.

The area he was in charge of was safe and sound, not to mention crimes, and even the pet cat was not lost.

Francesco bought a cup of iced coffee familiarly, and hid in the shade to rest quietly.

Such a boring day passed quickly. In the evening, when it was time for Francesco to leave work, he changed into his normal clothes and drove back home.

Francesco, 25, lives with his parents. This is not common in Europe. People who have grown up for a period of time still live with their parents under the same roof. It is usually considered "immature and independent". .

But Francesco didn't take it seriously. He thought that living with his parents was the happiest thing in the world, and he wasn't married, so why should the relationship be so estranged?He even felt that the "independent thinking" of the West was a bit too crazy, and it was not illegal to live with his parents.

"My dear little Richie." The gray-haired mother in an apron hugged her only son with a smile, and said half-jokingly:
"Go take a shower, it stinks, I can even smell your hair burnt by the sun."

"Exaggerated, Mom." Francesco sniffed his cuffs, and obediently went to the room to wash up.

Not long after, Francesco changed into clean clothes and came out. His father, Leonardo Rich, was still reading the newspaper on the sofa.

On the most conspicuous section of the newspaper, there was a piece of explosive news titled "Official members of the Temple will come to Florence to inspect the preparations for the Earth Destiny Council."

Official members of the temple coming?This thought flashed through Francesco's mind, but he put it behind him in an instant. That kind of big man was too far away from him, there was no possibility of intersection, and he had nothing to think about.

Old Richie put down the newspaper while calling for his wife, and the family of three sat at the dining table, enjoying the food.

Dinner is the most important meal for the locals. The Rich family is used to chatting and connecting with each other at this time. In addition to the home-brewed wine, the dishes are also extremely rich. There are various appetizers before meals, such as some nut snacks, and then A variety of seafood, pasta, meat, etc., and finally salads, desserts.

In this way, the young local policeman had dinner with his elderly parents and chatted about the interesting things that happened during the day.

Whenever this happens, Francesco will sincerely feel the beauty of life and pray that such happy days will last forever.
