Gustav was a smart man. Under such circumstances, he still insisted on summarizing all the intelligence information before appearing to appease the people.

What he said is particularly valuable.

First, he took some of the blame for Graves's appearance in South Folia on himself, quietly creating an impression among the people:
Ah, it turns out that the President had arranged for the First Chief Justice to investigate the case in advance.

...Such an atmosphere can reduce the public's perception of oneself as "ineffective".

Suspending and investigating Walter was what everyone wanted, and the Senate had made this decision hours ago, but when Gustav announced it again, the meaning was very different.

After resolving and shifting the core of the conflict, he asked the people to "give time", leaving enough room for a delaying tactic for the subsequent "explanation".

In fact, Gustav still stayed out of the matter and could wait for the final result to come out at will, and naturally only stood from the perspective of the winner to gain the favor of the people.

If Walter really fell, it was because of the "foresight" of this great president that played a major role.

Suppose Walter makes a comeback... although it is unlikely, but since Gustav has not made a final statement now, nor has he completely given Walter a certain "characterization" as reported in the newspapers, he always has room for maneuver.

The excitement in the capital was secretly suppressed by these people with ulterior motives, and the "tsunami" caused by Yehe was returned to below the sea level and turned back into an "undertow".

But it’s different in South Folia. As the city that the entire federation is paying the most attention to right now, Senator Stephen received a notice from Garcia as early as last night when Ye He just left the room, and he had made sufficient preparations in advance.

Whether it was the reception of the surviving children or the media's exclusive interviews with the children and the two killers, Stephen arranged everything in an orderly manner.

Apart from anything else, at least in South Folia, there has been no voice saying that Congressman Stephen is incompetent. This busy congressman who is always showing up can still convince the people of his competence.

"You've worked hard. You should take a rest first."

Stephen, who had just finished a speech and an interview, returned to his office and immediately received a glass of water from Garcia.

"Thanks Grandma! That's exactly what I needed!"

Stephen, whose throat was already burning, drank the water in one gulp, and then asked Garcia, who was smiling:
"Grandma, what should we do next?"

"We? Hehe..."

In front of his grandson, Garcia is still able to maintain his "mysterious" personality.

She grinned at Stephen, who looked expectant, and then suddenly said to Stephen:
"You can prepare to go to the Senate to take over Walter's position, and I... hehe, Stephen, under what circumstances would our federation suddenly need to replace the president?"

"What...you...you mean..."

Stephen was so frightened by Garcia that he almost vomited the water he had just drunk.

He stared at his grandmother with wide eyes, and finally recovered some normal language ability:

"The current president can no longer exercise his presidential powers... suddenly falls seriously ill, dies, or is impeached by the three houses... Are you prepared to..."

"That's about right. Although there's a little girl competing with me, she's smart, but there are some resources that she can never have.

Don't worry, it won't be so urgent, and it won't be so fast. At least after this incident, she and I will officially start to work hard. "

Garcia gave Stephen one last reminder. Although it was still unclear, it was enough for her grandson to understand her determination and he showed an excited expression.

She left Stephen in her office, who was going to see the children soon, and left quietly, returning soon to the Continental Hotel.

At the entrance of the hotel, she happened to meet Gracia who got off the carriage.

This girl, who she described as a childish girl in front of her grandson, is actually exuding a strong, bright and dazzling vitality after the training with Ye He last night.

Garcia herself is actually not much behind, but time is unforgiving after all, and her vitality is certainly not as dazzling as Gracia's.

But the future rivals got along exceptionally well at this time. Even when they met, they only greeted each other like this:
"Hey, isn't this the little princess of the court who is going to be used as a gun by everyone? You probably haven't told your slow-witted father yet what good thing you are going to do to "betray the family", right?"

"Don't worry about it. After all, you are already old. If you suddenly die, I will be too busy to attend your funeral!"

The two ladies smiled at each other and cursed each other in their hearts:
"Old fox!"

"soy Mujer!"

"Di Di!"

A steam locomotive just stopped in front of them. Ye He got off the locomotive and expressed some doubts about the unusually "harmonious" relationship between the two people.

But the ladies just smiled at Ye He together, then looked at the Ice Knight who got down from the passenger seat, and walked into the Continental Hotel without saying hello to Ye He.

They were quite sensible and did not compete for Ye He's favor at such an unnecessary time, which made Ye He feel annoyed.

Victor ran out of the hotel and passed by the two ladies.

When he woke up, he found himself in the Mainland Hotel. Seeing that his body was fine and even the arm that was bitten by the monster had recovered, he waited in the hotel lobby.

Victor noticed his return when he got off the bus in Yehe.

When he came to the car, he saw Cathy sleeping in the back seat, and his expression suddenly softened.

"Mr. Ye He, Cathy...is she okay?"

What you said...Ye He glared at Victor unhappily.

Seeing that the boy had performed well last night, Ye He didn't bother with him. He reached out and knocked on the car window, then opened the door and shouted to Cathy:
"Wake up!!"

"Wow!!!"

Cathy, who was so frightened that she almost jumped up, bumped her head on the roof of the car, and fell to the ground with her head in her hands, tears in her eyes due to the pain.

"Captain? Victor?"

Sure enough, Cathy has almost recovered, and after waking up from a good night's sleep, she is almost as energetic as before.

"Come down for lunch," Ye He patted Victor on the head to make the silly grinning guy calm down, and then said to the two young men:

"After dinner you should go back to Cedarville. I have something for you to say. Let's talk about it at the table."

Go back? Go back to Cedarville?

The two young men were stunned at the same time.

Victor asked Ye He in confusion:
"But...Kathy hasn't..."

"I've seen her. Well, anyway, everything is fine here, and I can go back."

Cathy jumped out of the car, took off her newsboy cap, and shook her hair, which had grown a lot longer.

Between the ends of her hair that were directly illuminated by the sunlight, some charming glow shone, like the smiles of a group of young girls who were curious about Victor's existence.

"Is... that so?" Victor's expression was a little confused, although he intuitively felt that under Cathy's energetic appearance, she seemed to have a lot of experiences that she was unwilling to talk about.

"Thinking about what you did last night, would you complain to her?"

Ye He reminded Victor at a very timely moment, which stunned both young men.

They looked at Ye He together, then looked at each other, and finally nodded obediently to Ye He.

Get it!

When leading the young people into the restaurant of the Continental Hotel, Ye He cast a look at the Ice Knight that was seeking credit and reward.

See, I'm still a nice person, right?
These two young people, each with their own terrible experiences, should be a little closer after today, right?
But the Ice Knight only gave him a coquettish roll of the eyes.

This is just the self-awareness of young people. What does it have to do with you?

Ye He raised his head.

If I hadn't reminded him, that silly boy Victor would have gotten to the bottom of Cathy's affairs, right?

The Ice Knight had no choice but to hug his arm.

Okay, okay, I think you know how to handle things, okay?
Cathy and Victor, who were walking behind Ye He and the Ice Knight, clearly did not hear a single word of conversation between the two adults, but unexpectedly felt that they seemed to have exchanged a lot of information.

Compared to Cathy, who looked confused but indifferent, Victor was more envious of the tacit understanding between Ye He and the Ice Knight.

If only Cathy and I could...

Victor began to stare at Cathy with wide eyes, but unfortunately, his "expressiveness" continued until they sat down and Cathy didn't notice.

After taking the menu, Cathy noticed that Victor was abnormal. She looked at Victor in confusion:
"what happened?"

"Um... nothing..."

Victor looked away disappointedly and blinked his eyes which were sore from staring for too long.

"You didn't wash your face this morning, did you? There's eye mucus in the corner of your eye..."

Cathy's "sincerity" dealt the most fatal blow to the sensitive boy, causing Victor to blush and look for a tissue to wipe his eyes.

Ye He and the Ice Knight looked at each other with some despair, especially Ye He.

There's no way. Not every couple can be like Phil and Bruce, who can hit it off after just one or two meetings.

This couple... let them wait and see.

After lunch, the two young men, who remembered Ye He’s instructions clearly, left the restaurant first.

They will go directly to the train station and take the train back to Cedarville via normal transportation.

As for their safety... Cathy is not someone that anyone can mess with now, and in the Federation, because of the existence of the four federal guardians, Cathy may be safer than when she was in Cedarville.

"The children who survived last night are over at the public nursery. Do you want to go over and take a look?"

"What surviving children?"

The Ice Knight didn't know what happened to the town later. On the way back, she was so busy paying attention to Cathy that she didn't even notice the roadside town that had become a ruin.

Ye He could only tell her what happened again. Upon hearing that the town was destroyed and only the children, Victor and the two killers survived, the Ice Knight immediately jumped up and hurried out of the restaurant.

Unlike Ye He, she was truly full of love for the children in the town. She had come back many times in the past few days to ask Ye He for candy to feed the children.

Hearing that they all became orphans overnight, the Ice Knight was heartbroken and couldn't help feeling guilty.

If I had known that nothing would happen to Cathy... I should have stayed in the small town... Unfortunately, there was no such thing as "knowing earlier".

Even Ye He himself was not sure that Cathy was just taken away to fulfill her destiny and liberate another "angel" who was calling her.

As soon as the Ice Knight left the restaurant, Grace and Garcia appeared at the door of the restaurant together, and walked towards Ye He with a smile on their faces.

But there was someone who was more anxious than them, and that was Connor, who had exercised with Ye He with them last night.

She had been waiting in the restaurant until Ye He was alone. Then she came over immediately, sat in Ye He's arms, and held Ye He's head tightly in her arms.

"Thank you... Thank you! He's finished! He must be finished!"

"Hmm... hard to say..."

Ye He's muffled voice sounded in Connor's chest, which made Connor stunned for a moment, and he quickly let go of him.

"How is this possible? I read the newspaper and contacted my friends in the capital. The president has suspended Walter, and the Supreme Court also wants to..."

Ye He's shaking head interrupted Connor's self-comfort.

He first glanced at Ingrid, who was hiding in the corner and staring at him, and then said to Connor, who had a stiff expression:
“You should know better than me that no one has any direct evidence of Walter’s crime. Even the confessions of the two killers are just their own words.

No matter how many witnesses there are, it is meaningless if they are not convincing enough, not to mention that we don’t have any physical evidence.”

"Right, right, right... they have no evidence... Father... has only been suspended... He has not been convicted yet!"

In the corner, Ingrid almost fainted.

She had stayed up all night and received such bad news in the newspaper early in the morning...

It was not until now, after hearing Ye He's honest confession, that Ingrid finally felt that he could breathe normally.

In contrast to Ingrid who was "relieved", Connor was completely tense.

Her expression was a little distorted, but she still tried to calm herself down, then asked Ye He cautiously and pitifully:
"Then...then what should we do? Without evidence...we can't convict him completely...is there any possibility that he can turn things around?"

"hehe."

Ye He smiled at Connor, then looked at Gracia and Garcia first.

The two ladies always had bright smiles on their faces and were not affected by Ye He at all.

They have made it clear that they want to skip this small "wave" and are ready to create their own "big wave".

"Don't worry." Ye He's gaze returned to Connor's face and smiled at her again:

"We don't have evidence now, but when Mr. Walter comes to South Folia, he will hand-deliver the evidence to us."
