Chapter 214 Weaknesses
The luxurious carriage gradually drove into Ximugang. Even though the news of the black fog had gradually spread, the dinner for the new city lord of Ximugang to succeed to the throne was a surprise to many people who wanted to get a piece of the pie in Ximugang, or who had the intention to come to Ximugang. It is a good opportunity for those who want to develop.
The palace of the city lord.
"Joan, please make some adjustments to the dinner arrangements." Hume looked at the red-haired assistant in front of him and handed over the document in his hand.
Joan nodded repeatedly and took the document.
The new city manager has more things to do than Martin, but it also gives her peace of mind. She only needs to follow the instructions and no longer has to worry about making mistakes. However, every time she meets the new city manager, she feels a little uneasy breathing. , the muscles all over the body are tense, as if the body is ready to escape at any time.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"It's me, Jason."
Hearing this voice, Joan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Go and do your work first." Hume said.
The person at the table changed.
"Did Kraut agree?" Hume supported his chin with his left hand, "You and he will attend the banquet tonight. As the new city lord, I will award you with a medal of honor for your contribution to Ximu Port to commemorate your contribution to Ximu Port. , someone has already found some clues, and with you here, you can deter them. In addition, I will also officially disclose the Blue Sky Project."
Jason remained silent, silence representing his answer.
Hume was not surprised. He thought for a while and continued: "Captain Miranda and her cronies will definitely attend the banquet tonight. The prison's defense is the weakest, and Kraut... seems not even willing to perfunctory."
"I..." Jason started, but didn't know what to say.
"Do you know how he plans to save people?" Hume continued to ask.
Jason looked to the upper left, recalling Kraut's words in his mind, and then he shook his head.
"Jason." Hume stood up and took off his shiny city lord uniform. "We need to protect this city. You have seen the changes in the security department of Ximu Port these days. Tell me the truth. What's going on now?" Which one is better, the Westwood Port Security Department or the former Westwood Port Guard?”
As Hume gradually took control of the economic power of Westwood Port, many resources were allocated to the Security Department. In addition to money, there were also various resources, such as support from the Golden Dawn, as well as various relics and alchemy items. Provide, more importantly, the strengthening of city defense and the improvement of its status in Ximu Port.
At this moment, the number of applications for Tempered Persons who want to enter the Security Department has reached ten times as many as before.
On the other hand, the air in Ximu Port seems to have changed a bit, lacking the breath of freedom.
"It's not a question of which one is better." Jason raised his head and looked at Hume. "Why can't this honor be awarded to Sauer and Martha? They need this more than me and Kraut."
"A 'dead man' and a monster?" Hume asked.
Jason sighed and looked away.
"I can award it to them, but do you think others can accept it?" Hume looked Jason up and down and continued: "And if we continue to study carefully, everyone will know the truth, and this series of consequences may eventually affect us. "
"Captain, I understand what you mean." Jason said, but his eyes had lost their luster, "I will try to persuade Kraut again."
The excitement of escaping from the dark underground was long gone.
Jason has already seen similar things, but in the past, he could do anything to at least make himself feel better. But now, the only thing he can feel is a deep sense of powerlessness, which is like The Sandman's nightmare is equally pervasive and difficult to escape.
Sometimes, he even thought that maybe it would have been better to listen to the captain. As long as he didn't go, he wouldn't have experienced this.
Or, he can give up everything now and follow his heart to fight for once.
Hume put on the city lord uniform again, sat on the chair, and fell into deep thought. After that, he said: "No, I will let Joan adjust it. You will continue to patrol today, but change the position. The prison is by You are responsible."
Jason's eyes lit up after hearing Hume's words.
"Sometimes it is better to do nothing than to do something." Hume reminded.
Jason nodded.
"By the way, let Rooney do it." Hume added.
……
A corner of Ximu Port. Mrs. Mariella is taking care of Ivan. It has been almost a month, but Ivan still has not changed back to his original appearance, nor has he grown in any way. Although he is already 6 years old, his intelligence is still that of a 3-year-old child. Moreover, in the visible There seems to be no sign of improvement in the future.
"Ivan, Ivan..."
She shouted twice.
Ivan was still playing with the wooden toy in his hand and did not respond.
In recent days, Kraut borrowed Ivan several times, as if he wanted Ivan to do something. At first, Ivan was very resistant, but after Kraut explained the situation, Ivan seemed to understand Kraut's words. Meaning, no longer crying, but very patiently doing what Kraut asked.
The door was slowly pushed open.
Kraut appeared in the doorway.
When Ivan heard the sound, he turned his head and looked at Kraut with his only eye. He seemed to sense something, and the smile on his face receded and became serious.
"Mrs. Mariela," Kraut greeted.
"Saul..." Mariela also knew about Sauer. In fact, on the day of the execution, she also took a look, but because there were too many people, she could only stand on the outermost edge.
"Today is the best opportunity." Kraut said, "We can't wait any longer."
Ivan seemed to understand these words, stood up, and walked towards Kraut.
Kraut gently touched Ivan's head, with a little regret in his eyes, "Sorry, little guy."
Ivan Mans has the ability to travel through space since he was rescued. However, using it multiple times in a short period of time will attract the attention of the Calcass hound.
The more times you use it, the harder it becomes to escape.
However, for the stability of the plan, it must be tested in advance.
Tonight, if you're lucky, you might be able to avoid the Calcass Hounds.
According to the test results in recent days, if it is a place that Ivan has been to, then it is very likely to succeed and is not prone to problems. But in the cage prison, it is impossible for Kraut to take Ivan in, so, The only option was to take the next step and let Ivan land on the spacious ground in the open air of the cage prison.
Kraut picked up Ivan, looked at Mrs. Mariela, and said in a steady voice: "Wait for our good news."
"Be careful." Mrs. Mariela took two steps forward. She knew in her heart that this was not something she could interfere with.
……
Cage prison.
The guard is even tighter today, because in the near future, Captain Miranda and several deputy captains will leave the prison and go to attend the succession dinner of the new city lord of Ximu Port.
But no matter how strict the guard is, it cannot change the problem of insufficient strength in the prison tonight.
"Edward, aren't you here yet? Are you too slow?"
Captain Miranda looked out the window. She had sent someone to pay attention to Kraut's situation. Even before catching Sauer, Kraut was already the subject of surveillance by the investigation team, but a high-level quenching He is also a well-known alchemist and has been working in Ximu Port for many years. Even if he lived in seclusion for a period of time, his power cannot be underestimated.
She knew that the defense force of the Cage Prison was the weakest tonight, and she also knew that Kraut knew that. However, in order to consider the future investigation of Stewart Island, it was impossible not to attend today's dinner.
Moreover, judging from Hume's subsequent performance, she also believes that the Ximu Port Security Department will not care about this matter. As long as it does not cause a large-scale commotion in Ximu Port, the Security Department will definitely ignore it. After all, it is impossible to openly arrest Shao. you.
"Captain." The deputy commander knocked on the door and entered.
"Is the time up?" Captain Miranda turned his head.
"The Lord of Hume City has sent someone to pick us up." The deputy captain said softly.
Captain Miranda stood up, her smooth and bright blond hair shining in the sunset.
