Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 79: The Congressman Trapped in the Werewolf
The hot sales of the powerful rage potion gave Luke a considerable source of funds. Coupled with the two sums of money he got from the Government Affairs Office, the Cape District Secret Affairs Bureau really turned things around this time.
Now Luke wanted to take advantage of the fact that all parties in Nutao City were distracted by the clear sky and take control of the Cape District as quickly as possible.
Grab both money and people!
Therefore, Luke attaches great importance to Yan Yang Night School.
Moreover, Luke required Yanyang Night School to provide not only training but also job assignments. Not only job assignments, but also to ensure that the remuneration for the new job was significantly higher than before.
Yanyang Night School will start classes soon, but it is difficult for the agents of the Secret Intelligence Bureau to find a receiving unit.
There were 500 students in the first term, and we could arrange jobs for them all. But if we want to expand the scale in the future, there will be so many students graduating from each term, and the economic level of Cape District is so poor that it cannot absorb so many people.
Even if the CIA invested in industry, there was not enough time and money.
Listening to Kalina's report, Luke had predicted the economic situation in the Cape area as low as possible, but found that it was still overestimated.
There are no big enterprises in Cape District except for the port. The whole city is teeming with sailors, coolies and drunkards. It can be said that the wharf feeds most of the people in the city.
There are many small workshops, but they are useless.
If the students in the night school training cannot be assigned jobs, there is no way to form a virtuous cycle of the Yanyang faction training system. In the rabbit hole structure envisioned by Luke, the essence of surrounding the city from the countryside was absorbed, and the strategy of surrounding the upper class from the bottom was created.
Yanyang Night School uses a short, flat and fast way to send a large number of skilled workers to the city. As long as the number of people reaches a certain level, they will become the backbone of the city that no one can ignore.
If the empire wanted to take action against itself at that time, it would have to consider the cost it would have to pay.
I just didn’t expect that the first step would be so difficult.
Just as Luke was trying to find a solution to the predicament of Yan Yang Night School, a spy came in to report.
Councillor Ibel is here.
Counting the days, he should be here soon!
And it came at just the right time...
"Understood. Councillor Ibel, please wait in the reception room on the third floor. I'll be there soon."
"Yes, Inspector."
Luke stood up and straightened his clothes. Kalina immediately walked behind him and helped him smooth out the wrinkles on his back.
Then he took his hat off the wall, picked up the cane by the table and put it in Luke's hand.
“Thank you…” Luke put on his hat and noticed Kylena’s changes today: “The clothes look good and she is very energetic. Girls should be energetic and confident. I will have face when I take her out to meet those officials.
Come on, accompany me to meet Councillor Ibel.
He must be in trouble.”
With Luke's praise, Kylena straightened her posture to make her body more graceful, with a sweet smile on her face, showing the dignified temperament of a lady from an aristocratic family.
"Yes, Inspector."
Luke thought for a moment and changed his words, " Let's go inspect the work of each department first and let our congressman wait for a while."
"Yes, Inspector."
Councillor Ibel was waiting alone in the reception room on the third floor of the Secret Service, looking very anxious. When he heard a noise outside the door, he went to see if it was Inspector Meteorite.
Nearly nine tons of gold could not be found!
It was clearly lost in that sea area, but after searching for several days, not even a grain of golden sand was found.
Did I remember it wrongly? Or was it picked up by someone?
No way to guess.
But the owners of the gold will not sympathize with Senator Ibr and will not be dismissed with a simple "can't find" answer.
You threw the gold !
How do we know if you found it but deliberately said you couldn’t find it?
The airship was attacked. Was it you who deliberately directed the attack to embezzle the gold?
In short, our gold cannot just disappear from your hands for no reason.
Even if Councillor Ibel had a hundred mouths, he couldn't explain it clearly.
And who arranged for the woman who attacked the Clover airship? How did she get on the airship? Was she hiding in the airship from the beginning?
What was her purpose in forcing the airship to make an emergency landing at sea?
Did the pirates who appeared in that sea area just happen to be there, or were they preparing to rob the gold on the airship?
Where is the gold?
The important thing is that there is a traitor... The servants in charge of transporting the gold have no time to pass the message to the outside world. The person who can set up this trap must be one of those people.
Who is it!
I don’t know, everyone looks like them.
What Councillor Ibul is most worried about now is his own life. Only by death can he take responsibility for all the problems.
The fact that he was able to come back alive from the Shamrock airship accident was definitely the biggest mistake in the plot to steal the gold. Therefore, the Meteorite Inspector who saved the Shamrock airship was undoubtedly the least suspicious person.
Moreover, before he came to the Cape District to take office, no one knew he would come, so it was naturally impossible for the insider to collude with an unknown senior imperial spy to rob the gold.
Inspector Meteorite can be trusted.
Since discovering the gold was missing, MP Ibrahim has been hiding in his home to prevent himself from dying "accidentally".
This morning, when the entire Nutao City was distracted by the collapse of the Thunder Tower, he took the opportunity to run out head straight for the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau.
The only person who can save your life in the entire Raging Waves City is probably Inspector Meteorite.
Congressman Ibr was waiting anxiously in the reception room, taking off his hat from time to time and wiping the sweat from his head with a towel.
Suddenly a voice came from outside: "The detective is here!"
Councillor Ibel felt that this was the most reassuring voice he had heard in the past few days.
"Inspector Meteorite..." As soon as the door of the reception room opened, Councillor Ibel went to greet him without caring about his status. When he saw Luke, he grabbed his hand and said, "Since we said goodbye on the Princess Fortune last time, I have been missing you, Inspector, and I look forward to meeting you again. Since you haven't come to my mansion, I know you must be busy with official business.
This time I happened to come to the Cape District to deal with some business, so I came to see the inspector.
By the way, is there any progress on the case of the Shamrock accident?"
“Sit down, please sit down, sit down and talk…” Luke handed his hat and cane to Kylena who was accompanying him, and then invited Councillor Ibel to sit down, and then said: “I came so late to urge the detectives in charge of the case to hurry up and deal with the case of the Shamrock.
But this case is very difficult, very difficult. Many things are no longer in their original state after being soaked in seawater. My people have to sort out the evidence and look for clues bit by bit. If we want to make any progress... it will take some time.
Please do not be anxious, Mr. Congressman.
The Cape District Secret Affairs Bureau will definitely give you an explanation."
I’m afraid I won’t live to see that day!
Councillor Ibrahim was in deep pain but could not express it.
The wreckage of the Shamrock and the Meteorite Detective are his hopes for proving his innocence and uncovering the traitor.
"Inspector Meteorite, please find out the mastermind behind this case as soon as possible. Please tell me what you need me to do!"
