Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 83: The Inspector Says He Will Pay You When the Job Is Done
The unified shouts of millions of people gathered into waves of sound that rushed towards Congressman Virgil. After the echoes from the towering city hall building were superimposed, they formed an overwhelming force.
Virgil's weak voice was like the sound of a mouse before the roar of a dragon...it could not be heard, it could not be heard at all.
In the face of this momentum, Virgil's demeanor as a councillor was gone. He wanted to do something in front of the city officials and dignitaries, but at this moment he was more like a helpless clown.
The "angry" crowd pushed forward little by little, and those standing in the front were all strong and powerful villains. The high bounty made them dare to push the sheriffs who formed a human wall, and the demonstration line advanced towards the Government Affairs Office building.
Virgil retreated up the stairs, and all he could see was a dense crowd of heads. The sheriff's defense line was in danger.
In a panic, Virgil tripped and fell.
It immediately caused laughter in the audience.
A city councillor made a public fool of himself, and the crowd seemed to have won a victory, pressing forward even more aggressively.
I want to see the congressman fall again.
But two sheriffs picked up Congressman Virgil and quickly took him into the building.
Seeing the congressman's embarrassed look, the crowd cheered loudly.
Standing behind the door of the Government Hall, looking at the passionate crowd of demonstrators, Congressman Virgil felt humiliated and became angry.
He ordered the surrounding sheriffs: "These are mobs, they must be suppressed immediately! I order you to use force to expel these mobs!"
The surrounding sheriffs were afraid to enforce the order.
There were too many people demonstrating this time, not just in front of the Government Hall, but even more in the Central Park. Once violence was used to trigger a chain reaction, the entire city of Nutao would be plunged into a real riot.
Who will bear this responsibility?
"Mr. Virgil, please give us a formal order."
…
Virgil came to his senses. He had just spoken in a fit of rage. He didn't have the courage to sign a formal order.
But the people outside are about to rush into the Government Affairs Hall. As the head of the city’s security department, I have to do something.
But what to do?
Virgil, who had never experienced such a situation, didn't know what to do. Any mistake he made could lead to an unmanageable situation.
" Congressman , what's going on outside? Many gentlemen have told me that their safety and property are being threatened, and someone has broken into their yard and taken some things."
Senator Ibel walked over under the protection of several imperial spies, his steps were steady and dignified.
There was just a sarcastic smile on his face.
In the crash of the Shamrock armed airship, Virgil is the most likely suspect.
It was he who arranged for the protection of the airship.
He installed a gargoyle on the top of the airship for warning and added four magicians.
At that time... the gargoyle sounded an intrusion alarm, and four magicians rushed to the top of the airship. Then the airship's airbag was damaged, forcing the airship to make an emergency landing.
Everything that happened on the top floor of the airship was narrated by the four magicians, and of course they could say whatever they wanted to say.
Even the so-called female swordsman may be a fictional person.
Now Councillor Ibel looks at Virgil again... and the more he looks at him, the more he thinks he's a mole!
Virgil heard Ibul's mockery of him, and replied in a very bad mood: "Ibul, take care of your own affairs first. We are all waiting for you to find the lost things, otherwise... you know what will happen to you."
Is this a death threat?
Ibul felt that the guy in front of him looked like a ghost.
"I will find what is lost. But as a councilman for this city, I see an incompetent guy sitting in a position that is not suitable for him.
Look at what you are doing? Waiting for the citizens outside to rush in?
You are about to destroy the dignity of the City Hall and the City Council of Raging Waves."
"I'm in charge here, I'll take care of it!"
"But I just heard about suppression? Ridiculous! The imperial army will suppress us and the mob. How can I work with such a stupid person? You should resign!"
After saying that, Ibel ignored Virgil, whose face was flushed, and walked out of the building accompanied by the imperial spies.
Virgil looked at Ibel who was walking out and cursed in a low voice behind him: "You stupid fat pig, the people outside will eat you first."
However……
The shouting outside actually... actually stopped!
Councillor Virgil walked out puzzled.
Congressman Ibul was seen standing on the steps with a microphone in front of him and surrounded by a large number of newspaper reporters.
Although the dark crowd at the foot of the stairs was still a little noisy, they were completely different from the angry people just now.
Everyone was waiting for Ibul's speech.
Virgil realized that the sudden city-wide demonstrations that broke out today were definitely related to Ibel!
What does he want to do?
Where did he find so many people?
But no matter what, the situation has developed to this point, and Ibul's goal has been achieved. He has placed himself at the center of the entire city, and he is the unshakable protagonist of the city today.
He must be planning something!
This is a big plan that none of us know about, and just like the gold, he is getting away from us!
Congressman Ibrahim stood behind the microphone, facing the sea-like crowd waiting for his speech. He felt that he was in a very good condition.
He is not afraid that some people will see that this demonstration is related to him.
The ability to organize a demonstration of this magnitude itself represents appeal and influence.
Don't believe it?
Try someone else!
Councillor Ibel was happy in his heart, knowing that Inspector Meteorite was definitely a reliable ally.
I thought he could find more than 10,000 people to meet the needs. Who would have thought that Inspector Meteorite would have created a 100,000-level team for himself in such a short time? Look at those sheriffs and Senator Virgil, who look like helpless lambs being bullied.
The effect is full.
After today, I will be tied to the opinions of hundreds of thousands of people, and no one in the entire city will dare to look down on me.
Members of Parliament...
It is not impossible to have a long-lasting dispute.
"Ahem..." Councillor Ibul cleared his throat and said to the microphone in an excited voice: "Citizens, I am Councillor Ibul of the City Council of Nutao City. I understand your anger at this moment, and I admit that it is the serious dereliction of duty of the city's security department that caused the symbol of the city to be destroyed by evil elements..."
At this time, Luke and his men stood behind Councilman Ibel, and the Imperial spies from the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau took over the on-site defense from the sheriffs.
The order has improved.
Imperial spies formed a human wall in front of the demonstrators.
"Brother, don't push. The inspector is coming, everyone step back."
"Brother, it's not me who's pushing, it's the people behind me who are pushing... When will the money be distributed?"
"The inspector said that we'll pay you once the job is done."
