Round cheese, the nominal mayor of Pelican City, is now standing still.
The smile on his face just now seemed to be torn open suddenly. The smile was still there, but the soul inside had disappeared.
After a long time, he still stood here, as if waiting for some miracle. However, when he realized that the president of mermaid song really didn't change his mind, he finally couldn't help it. His whole body began to tremble violently and opened his mouth: "Ariel... President? I... please... Please... Please... Give me another chance! I... I really... "
Ariel didn't respond.
She was still just looking at the data in her hand, sorting it out a little, and even had a gesture of explaining and planning to leave.
"I said, President Ariel."
But at this time, master Eddie opened his mouth again.
The flame magician got up, rubbed his hands constantly, and said with a little leisurely mood——
"I know you're angry about it. I can also understand this. In other words, if I were in your position and saw the mayor of cheese make such a bad action, ha ha... Seriously, I wouldn't let him resign so easily. I may even have the heart to kill him. "
A touch of timidity appeared on the round cheese's face, and he involuntarily stepped back two steps.
"But we should also take care of each other, right?"
Eddie's eyes shook slightly on the round cheese's face and continued——
"We all know that this incident is too sudden. Suddenly, all of us are not ready. "
"Especially for the mayor of round cheese, you just recognized it. At this time, I'm afraid no one will make any very good response."
"So... If we want our mayor to leave just because of this, is it... Too demanding?"
Ariel looked up at the flame mage. There was still no smile on her face. After a moment of silence, she just said slowly, "so, do you think I'm too harsh?"
Eddie nodded gently, smiled and said, "yes, a little harsh."
"You think, we are all human beings. As long as we are human, we will be easy to make mistakes."
"If, according to what you said, as a mayor, once there are some strange emergencies (harmony) in the city and several civilians who can be supplemented anytime and anywhere die, he will resign, then it is estimated that the whole blue empire... No, even the mayors of all cities in the whole golden continent, I'm afraid I'll resign in two or three years. "
Ariel's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and a completely undisguised disgust appeared in her eyes: "so you don't think it's necessary to catch up with the future of a mayor if you die a few civilians?"
Of course Eddie noticed the disgust in Ariel's eyes. But he smiled and said, "no! After all, everyone will make mistakes, and everyone will have some unwanted situations, won't they? Besides, is there a better candidate for mayor than cheese mayor in the whole Pelican city? "
Maybe it's because Eddie's tone is very relaxed and happy, so Ariel keeps her mouth shut and doesn't say a word.
Seeing this, the flame magician continued: "so, it's better to turn the big thing into a small one first. Ah! I'll be a peacemaker here! Mayor cheese, you really made a small mistake that anyone can make! So! Wait until tomorrow for a banquet, invite the president of mermaid song and her members to have a good meal, and then apologize and admit a mistake! We are all part of Pelican city. What's the big deal! "
Looking at Eddie's relaxed appearance, the tension on the round cheese face gradually recovered. He nodded hurriedly, ran to Ariel with small steps all the way, lowered his eyebrows and whispered: "President Ariel... Well... I know, I've caused you trouble... This time I really realized that I did wrong, I promise, there will be no next time! So... "
"So please forgive me this time, will you?"
The fat man's obedient voice is so soft.
Look at the round cheese now, and think about the cheese shop owner who sold the guild building to herself for the first time... For a moment, Ariel suddenly felt that the person in her impression seemed to have changed.
But... That's right.
People always become.
Just like Eddie invincible, who is laughing over there now, he has changed.
"I remember when I first saw Mr. invincible, you were a magician in charge of heralding. At that time, although you were stubborn and insisted on completing the task, I could still see the character of loyalty and kindness in your eyes. "
Eddie glanced at Ariel here and said, "what's the matter? Am I not loyal and kind now? I haven't done anything bad. "
Ariel nodded slightly, then turned her head, looked at the knight George peanut Tun who had always been watching the play, and said, "what about Mr. peanut Tun? Do you have any other opinions? "
I'm afraid George didn't expect to turn the topic to himself now? After being stunned for a while, he quickly shook his head and said, "I have no opinion. This guy doesn't have anything to do with me being mayor. But since the people of the association want him to continue to be, I won't vote against it. "
Right now, three to one.
Since the association and the holy see are willing to support the chubby mayor, Ariel can't really force him to resign directly.
Now after seeing the helpless expression on Ariel's face, cheese finally knew that she had finally escaped, and the smile on her face could be completely released.
He straightened up, nodded at Ariel again and again, smiled and said, "thank you, President Ariel, thank you, President Ariel! don't worry! I won't make the same mistake next time! I will keep this lesson firmly in mind. Please rest assured! "
"Don't be happy too soon."
Ariel picked up the materials in her hand and handed them to the cassava in the back.
The little vampire was stunned, but Ariel didn't give her time to hesitate. She stuffed all the information in her hands into her arms, so that the little girl who was not one meter four hurriedly carried the long bow and held all the information.
"Since you are still willing to be the president, there are a lot of things to deal with from now on."
The cheese nodded again and said with a smile, "of course, of course! I'll start working early tomorrow morning! Please rest assured! "
"What, tomorrow morning? We don't have time to put it off until tomorrow! "
However, before the cheese could figure out what had happened, Ariel immediately gave him a white look, waved her hand and said, "let's go! The mayor is not a person who can solve all the problems just by sitting in the mayor's residence and signing documents. You slept last night, so you can finish all the work for me tonight! "
With that, Ariel turned and walked towards the gate exit.
There was an expression of embarrassment on the face of the round cheese in the back. He looked at the moonlight hanging high outside the window, and then looked at the two speakers of the association and the holy see next to him.
"What am I doing? Let's go ~ ~! "
George put his hands around the back of his neck, got up and said as he walked——
"Just now you have saved your position as mayor. Do you want to drag on? There must be some sophistication. "
Eddie next to him immediately smiled, waved his hand and said, "all right, all right, stop arguing. Mr. Mayor, let's walk with you. Did you notice the woman's eyes? What a powerful black eye! It seems true that she said she didn't sleep for two days and one night. We'll follow her a little later. When she's really tired and wants to go back to bed, we'll leave. "
There's no way. It's the only way for round cheese now.
At present, he could only sigh helplessly, put on his coat again, said to his family that he wanted to go out to work, and then walked out of the mayor's residence reluctantly.
Under the moonlight ahead, the president of the mermaid song has been waiting for a long time. He looked at the two blood families standing on both sides and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He could only pile up a smile on his face again and walked up.
Moving along the street, Ariel's pace seemed a little vain. It was obvious that she began to accumulate fatigue due to lack of sleep.
The round cheese in the back saw that Ariel had begun to float a little when she walked, and her heart was naturally fixed. After walking two streets, he couldn't help asking——
"President, excuse me... Where are we going now? What else must be done tonight? "
It seems that some people in the back are beginning to hate the mayor. But with so much information in her hands, she couldn't turn around and leave directly. I wanted to give all the information to the cheese next to me, but the cheese was even more outrageous. I carried my hands on my back and didn't want to share a little.
Seeing this, Mashu can only drum up his cheeks and continue to follow behind silently.
"Can't you think of it?"
Ariel turned her head and looked suspiciously at the fat man who had just saved her position as mayor.
The smile on round cheese's face suddenly froze again. He looked back a little and saw that George and Eddie didn't come out together now. When he was reduced to being alone, his mood began to become tense again.
"That... That... Maybe... I..."
Ariel was too lazy to continue to play charades with round cheese, and said bluntly——
"The captured robbers are still in custody. They shouldn't have eaten for a day and a night. Now, your first job is to deal with these robbers. "
At the mention of robbers, the nervous expression on cheese's face suddenly turned into panic!
He stopped, but the cheese behind him put his hand on his back in good time and pushed him forward.
"So... Those robbers? Those robbers... What should I do with them? "
Ariel didn't even look at him now. She replied, "what do you say to deal with it? You are the mayor of Pelican city. They attack Pelican City, so of course you, the mayor, have to make the final decision. "
"But... But..."
"But what? You were so positive when you asked Pelican city mayor to work just now, and you promised me that there would be no mistakes next time. So now your chance comes. Let me see what you can do with these robbers. Here we are. "
With the falling of the voice, a scorched smell that had not been able to dissipate began to pass into their nostrils.
Round cheese raised his head and saw that the buildings in front were broken walls, full of broken walls and damaged wood.
There is an uncontrollable stench in the air. On this hot summer night, the strong stench is more like being pressed on the surface and trapped in the city.
In addition to these dilapidation and death, there are many people gathered here.
They have men and women, old and young. Including most members of the mermaid song, as well as other workers and citizens, everyone is busy here.
However, there are more faces showing sadness and despair.
The source of their sadness and despair came from the body bags lined up in the street.
Many people were kneeling and crying beside the body bags. Some people seem to have fainted from crying and are being rescued by Margo.
"President! President Ariel is here! "
"And the mayor, he's here too."
When people here saw Ariel and cheese appear, they immediately stopped their work and looked here.
Ariel was fine, but the cheese suddenly seemed unacceptable when she saw so many eyes mixed with anger, fear, sadness, despair and prayer.
"President, what should I do now?"
Cream fell from the roof of a dilapidated house in the distance, ran quickly to Ariel and said——
"The robbers haven't eaten for a day and a night. They are shouting. If they don't make a decision, they may riot. "
"Eat? Why feed them? "
Just as the voice of cream was falling, a man in his forties rushed up and pushed it against the cream's chest——
"My wife is dead! My wife is gone! My wife, I was a good wife two days ago! She just told me she was going to work, and then I'll never see my wife again! My wife will never come back --! "
Although this push failed to push away the cream, the man burst into tears when he scolded.
Looking at his cry, cream could only step back silently and pretend to be pushed away by him.
"My wife is gone! My wife! Woo woo... They still want to eat?! They killed my wife! They still want to eat
The man was crying and shouting. The original strong body looks like a duckweed that has completely lost its roots at this moment. It will fall apart at the slightest touch.
Because of his crying voice, everyone nearby surrounded him.
"Kill them! Kill them all! "
"My son! Woo woo! They killed my son, too! "
"My home was burned... I have nothing! My everything, everything is gone! "
"Kill them all! President Ariel, please let me kill them! I'll kill them all! Kill all that remain! "
"Woo woo... Wow ah ah ah ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!"
People's emotions were very excited. Gradually, the original angry emotions began to be replaced by the sad cry that could not be vented.
Many people cried. They came to the body bags of their relatives again. Their faces were red with tears, shortness of breath and fainting. A large, noisy, chaotic.
The corners of the cheese's mouth twitched slightly. He turned his head and looked at Ariel next to him with some questioning eyes.
Ariel shook her head gently and said, "let's go and see the prisoners."
Under the protection of mermaid song members, Ariel and cheese went to the abandoned warehouse where all the robbers were held.
Brad at the door saw Ariel coming, nodded, then opened the door slightly and took the lead in.
Entering the warehouse, round cheese saw the robbers sitting or lying curled up in the big warehouse one by one.
Some of them were injured and simply bandaged. Some people lose an arm or a leg, curl up in the corner, cover their faces and cry.
Of course, there are some people who don't have any opinions, but lie quietly in the corner of the warehouse. Under the hot temperature this summer, the whole warehouse is filled with a strong rotten smell. If you look carefully, you may have seen some maggots climb up the eyes, ears, mouth and nose of those who lie quietly.
"These... These are... Robbers?"
The cheese curled up behind Brad's huge body and peeked inside.
At this moment, the surviving robbers also heard the sound of opening the door and turned their heads to face the round cheese.
Ariel nodded gently and asked, "how many people are there in total?"
The crisp tower on one side responded: "as long as there is one breath left, there are 418 people in total."
Hearing this number, Ariel breathed out slowly. She turned around and pulled the round cheese next to her. They walked out of the warehouse.
"So what should we do with the 418 robbers now?"
Ariel looked the mayor in the face again and completely threw the problem to the fat man who wanted to continue——
"If we want to kill, we will kill 418 people. If you want to release them, you can't tell the citizens just now. If you want to hesitate, how are you going to solve these people's rations? Judge, 'mayor of cheese'. "
