"Captain Zhang is talking about..."

The city lord smiled dryly and looked at the long sword. When he saw Zhang Feng put down the sword, he continued: "Well...does Captain Zhang have any thoughts about Qiuchu?"

"What's your idea?" Zhang Feng looked at the city lord, wondering which play he was singing, and what he said was unclear.

"If you have any questions, City Lord, just tell me..."

Zhang Feng walked forward and passed by the staff of the Law Department. He pushed the knife back into his scabbard and said, "I'm going to go back and rest. Let's not play riddles anymore."

"No...how do you say this..." The city lord looked at the people in the city who gradually became quiet and explained in a low voice: "I'm afraid there are still remnants of the Chamber of Commerce here...it's not a place to talk..."

He said, and then invited: "How about Captain Zhang come and sit in the city lord's palace? What I want to say is also about the Eastern Region... I want Captain Zhang to read some information..."

"Sure." When Zhang Feng heard that the city lord was so cautious, he really thought he had something big going on, so he didn't hesitate and prepared to go over and have a look.

"Please!" After shielding everyone around him, the city lord led Zhang Feng to the outside of the venue, where his car was not far away.

"You guys go back first." Zhang Feng looked at the people next to him and asked them to go back to their temporary residence first.

When the city lord saw it, he invited him together: "There are some guest rooms in the mansion. If Captain Zhang doesn't mind and doesn't dislike it, he can use the city lord's mansion as a temporary..."

"The city lord is out of touch when he says this." Zhang Feng interrupted him, "How can I not dislike it? Business is important now, and everything else is trivial..."

..

Wait until eleven o'clock at night.

A group of people arrived in a convoy to the area of ​​the City Lord's Mansion thirty miles away.

Zhang Feng saw that the city lord's palace in the East Region consisted of twelve small three-story villa buildings and courtyards, connected into a large villa area.

The city lord and some officials in the city all work and live here.

Seven of the villas are vacant and are also used as guest rooms for guests from above.

There are staff cleaning every day to ensure that you can check in at any time.

He also waited for everyone to pass the cordon outside the villa area and enter one of the houses.

Zhang Feng looked at the city lord who was following him and wanted to ask what was going on.

But as soon as the city lord opened his mouth, he began to apologize in various ways, confessed some "little actions" in the past two years, and talked about the incident in early autumn half a month later, and that Zhang Feng had full authority to do so.

Zhang Feng understood that it turned out that the city lord was planning to secretly hand over his power and let him take the lead and take charge of the battle affairs in the Eastern Region, but he was just going to take the initiative and plead guilty.

That is indeed true. Although such things can be done openly, they certainly cannot be said openly.

Because these are all powers given by the above, how can any individual give it privately and say it to his face?

This is obviously not giving face to the superiors and treating rights as child's play.

When the news spreads, Zhang Feng will be fine, but the city lord is definitely in trouble.

"I have been living here recently." Zhang Feng saw that the scenery of the villa area was good and it was located in the center of the Eastern Region, so he agreed. It happened to follow the mission line and control the highest power in the Eastern Region.

In this way, no matter what you do or what you do in the future, no one will have to criticize you.

"How are Captain Zhang going to deal with those criminals?" Seeing Zhang Feng agree, the city lord then talked about the remaining members of the Chamber of Commerce, waiting for Zhang Feng's instructions.

At this moment, he entered the role of a housekeeper who helped Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng heard this and waved his hand to let him do whatever he wanted.

Anyway, two or three kittens are not a big deal in my perception.

Just kill him when he comes. It's such a simple thing, there's no need to go looking for it.

It's better to let it go for a while, and maybe the bounty will come back to 'pay off the remaining sins'.

"Captain Zhang, take a rest first..." The city lord took it as a big deal and was going to send people to investigate overnight to do the first thing that Captain Zhang entrusted to him.

Later.

The city lord left.

Zhang Feng looked at his back, but felt that this man was very interesting and lively.

Because there is part of his file in the Ministry of Law information.

Including the Eastern Region Chamber of Commerce, there is also a lot of information about him.

Moreover, some executives of the Chamber of Commerce also reported the city lord for taking their things.

Zhang Feng had seen it and knew it all.

In general, the city lord is a "good old man" in the Eastern Territory. He is so good that he does not have deep connections with all the forces, but he has some connections with them.

But it was through such a delicate relationship, coupled with the fact that his position was so conspicuous, that he was able to gain a foothold in the chaotic Eastern Region and remain the city lord for another two years.

Including the ruthless President Xu, he also thought that the city lord would not interfere with his plans, so he did not carry out any crackdown to pull him down. Then he attracted the attention of the superiors here and sent an unfamiliar city lord over.

The same is true for other forces. Everyone is seeking profit, and they are in alliance with each other. They are deeply intertwined, which makes the Eastern Region like this.

In the final analysis, the Eastern Territory belongs to grandma and does not hurt me, nor does my uncle love it. It is simply a barrier against the East China Sea, allowing them to operate independently.

The city lord doesn't care about anything, but he needs to know all the forces.

Zhang Feng had another feeling when he thought of this.

Is that what the higher-ups did on purpose? Deliberately classifying the city as a "three no matter" zone?

Pretend that 'the city lord we sent over' doesn't care about you, as long as you don't go too far and don't mess with the city lord, then it's okay.

For the sake of their respective power and development, President Xu and the others must have devoted 120% of their efforts to protect their "own city" from the oppression and attacks of the beast tide, and also contributed to construction.

As for who owns the city in the end, it is naturally part of the Central Plains and cannot be separated.

Zhang Feng thought, feeling that this might be the case.

And as time goes by.

During this period of time in the city lord's palace.

The city lord came to report the work in person every day, and brought a computer with all the information about the Eastern Region and the beast tide in previous years.

Everyone has begun to discuss defense against the beast tide.

It can be said that there is a conference once a day, and there are constant private meetings, and there are also many leaders of forces who specially come to participate.

But it's not just the big shots who are busy.

Outside the city, as autumn approaches.

There are also many adventurers wandering around the Eastern Region, reflecting on the activity areas of some evolved beasts, as well as where more evolved beasts may gather, or where the evolved beasts in the sea will land, etc.

Such letters and data files float from everywhere like snowflakes every day and are delivered to the desks of various forces.

Personnel from various forces also took turns collecting useful information, inputting it into the file database of the wired computer, and uploading it to the city lord's palace terminal.

When it comes to the rise and fall of the Eastern Territory, they still present a united front and discuss it together in the city lord's mansion.

This is the case every year.

This is also the time when the Eastern Region is most united.

The personnel responsible for wartime intelligence in the city lord's palace also classified the information into categories, labeled them with known evolved beasts, sorted them out into small folders, and placed them in a villa for all the arriving dignitaries to browse.

In this way, Zhang Feng occasionally discussed with everyone in the villa, or recruited everyone to hold a meeting.

The days passed day by day.

The most obvious thing is that the temperature has also changed suddenly in the past few days.

If we talk about normal temperatures, when the weather is good, it can be over ten degrees Celsius, and strong people can still wear short sleeves.

But now, as a damp chill gradually spreads across the entire eastern region and Yan Province, the temperature drops to around zero degrees.

The plants still follow the change of seasons and shed their fallen leaves.

Everyone knows summer is over.

Until the early morning of the 13th day.

Dark clouds cover the sky, and drizzle falls.
