"With the transportation portion to be done for discussion, let's go with the next portion that we would be looking at. Would anyone wish to pitch their discussion for the ball to continue rolling?" Rex asked since he felt that with Jin in the picture, it looks like the discussion of even the simplest thing like transportation would have a different thing in mind.
"I guess, I will take a go." Ixel raised his hand and he started to talk about the Police department and Rex also believed that the Internal Affairs department would be able to take over after that.
After all, they should be in the same portion of the city but considering Ixel is not usually the cleverest in the group and was known more of his strength, the Foxes had assigned him to a smaller portion of control with Tsu and Kai overseeing him.
Perhaps it sounded overkill to have three foxes in the Internal Affairs department but Tsu and Kai did not only take care of the security portion of internal affairs. As the name had stated, as long there are issues internally, they will be the ones taking care of it.
And that means a slew of items such as manpower issues, employment problems, economical and finance of the city, and many others that the rest did not take over.
While it might seem like it was not sufficient to have two brilliant foxes to be handling everything and anything under the sun, Rex had known them to be extremely capable leaders. In the past, Tsu and Kai handled one of the most complicated branches of their clan particularly in administrative issues.
They were able to deal those matters with finesse and provided something akin to a modern equivalent of a quality management system like what the international organisation for standardisation ISO had demanded in modern companies.
It was also the reason why Kraft had always chosen Tsu and Kai to be his lackeys and manipulated them from the start to make them be with him. That was how the Devil Fox usually got his things done and that was all thanks to those two foxes.
Even now with his Night Foxes and his recently developed Sun Foxes, Tsu and Kai had dipped their toes into the formation of these teams. On occasions to run away from the overburden of work, the two foxes would be utilising the Night Foxes to relieve their stress.
And with the Sun Foxes onboard, they had refined the training regime that they used in Night Foxes' trial and error training to make them a more effective group of high elves.
Of course, this was not the entire point but rather there was a relation to the Night and Sun Foxes. It was precisely because Rex knew that Tsu and Kai were the next in line for the Devil Fox's lust for attention aside from himself, Kraft would hardly say no when the Heads of Internal Affairs required help from the Devil himself.
It was as if Rex had calculated that with so few leaders at hand, having one master manipulator as part of his leader council, albeit a fleeting one, is better than none. So, every Tsu and Kai had some problems that needed solving and did not have the time to do so, they would enlist either Kraft or Ixel depending on the situation whether it was a problem of brawns or brains.
"Good job." Tsu and Kai said in unison and that made Ixel blush a little.
"But surely, there are other things that had been done to change the image, right?" Jin knew that this police patrol thing was surely not the main solution to such a deep rooted problem of distrust.
"Yes, but that is for me and Kai to talk about it. However, we wait until Ixel finishes his report to you before we step in." Tsu replied and Ixel nodded his head.
"So far, there is a drop in humans attacking monsters within the cities and there are even fewer disputes except for drunk fights. We like to propose a curfew but Brother Kai said that we should not do that as it was their tradition and in his words, he said 'Even if they kill each other, they can be revived again, so I see no issues in drunk fights.
As long as they do not disturb other people, that is fine.' So, most of the patrols were there to make sure that the fights to not get out of hand. I even made them to shake hands after the fight was over."
"Now I finally know the reason why my hospitals are always so busy in the night..." Pei commented and shot a glance at Kai and he slowly tried to avoid eye contact, pretending to talk to Tsu about something else. The rest of the group chuckled and knew that even though fighting was a byproduct of the problem they had to resolve it.
If they were able to resolve it, there would be less fighting but at the same time, the reason why the Foxes did not discourage fighting was mainly because this was still a dog eat dog world. It might feel peaceful from within and the reason for it was that the principles of modern human society from Jin's World had been implemented.
Yet, they should not forget that the entire 99.9999 percent of the world could potentially be still hostile to them since they were just a coalition of cities together, they were not even a nation.
Thus, fighting keep their senses on the ball, so that if there were attacks, the citizens would not be running to evacuate but to run to keep their precious equipment and documents in check so that when the fight arises while protecting their proverbial rice bowl, they were ready to fight back.
"Other than that, I have no issues. Oh! Sorry. The department is receiving a lot of resumes, as people feel that it's a good money earning opportunity. Can we have a proper training facility to train them just like how Demopolis has an entire military base?"
"Lol, Ixel. If the police have an entire base to themselves, I think people might think that we are policing our cities a little much or maybe overboard perhaps. However, Rex could probably squeeze something out of Demopolis's military base. Maybe share a facility or two to improve the utilisation of the military base? It will be good that the police have the same military discipline too."
"Sure, I will look into it. However, that will mean there are some changes that the military base has to accommodate." Rex said and Jin nodded his head, stating that he could bring it up later in the discussion. For now, it's the next one in line.
