The thin man looked at the slightly sickly young man in front of him and swallowed.
This boy is not at all like the information given by the intermediary. He is just an ordinary underage high school student. His sophisticated tone is more like that of a gang leader who has been involved in gangs for many years and kills without blinking an eye.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with He Ao being so young and so strong. There were indeed some people in this world who possessed unpredictable powers. Although he had never seen it, he had heard that any underground gang would encounter such a person.
It is to be avoided.
The man swallowed his saliva and looked at He Ao.
Since the middleman is unkind and tricked us into committing suicide, it is reasonable for me to betray him.
"The middleman is Noad from the Avis Bar. That damn liar deceived us." The man glanced at the dead brothers, and then seemed to suddenly remember something, "Noad also asked us to help collect a kind of
Extraordinary plants.”
He moved deeper into the small building little by little, and led He Ao to a rectangular metal box, "I don't know if you like it."
"Open."
He Ao looked at him and said softly.
"good."
The thin man carefully put down his hand and opened the metal box under He Ao's gaze.
The box was opened, revealing small yellow flowers sealed in ice.
Corpse flower.
"This kind of flower seems to be called a corpse flower...if you like it..." the man said while stepping back while He Ao was looking at the box, "I can make a decision and give these to you."
He slowly lowered his hand and touched the inner pocket of his clothes, where a black gun handle was slowly exposed.
"Have I ever forced or threatened you? Have I ever expressed my intention to blackmail you?"
However, at this moment, He Ao, who was staring at the corpse flower, suddenly asked softly.
"No," the man trembled in fright. Then he found that He Ao's eyes were still on the corpse flowers. He relaxed a little and continued to reach into the inner bag, "I voluntarily gave these to you. They are all my own."
will."
The sickly-looking young man in front of him had actually always been gentle, spoke softly, and never said any threatening words, but the terrifying sense of oppression kept weighing the thin man out of breath.
Following his words, his hand finally touched the cold handle of the gun.
Then at that moment, he suddenly grasped the handle of the gun, took it out, and pointed it at He Ao. He didn't say any nonsense and was about to shoot immediately.
And at the moment when his index finger pulled the trigger, a silver ray of light came out of He Ao's hand, passed through the void, and sank into his throat accurately.
It was a folding knife stained with blood.
The thin man was hit with a huge force. He leaned back and fell to the ground. He stared blankly ahead as bright red blood sputtered from his neck.
He Ao calmly closed the metal box, lifted the handle on the box, looked at the thin man, and said softly, "Gift, legal."
The thin man looked at He Ao, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but bright red blood gushes from his throat, blocking all his words.
He Ao walked out of the small building with his suitcase and turned off the light.
The whole street fell into pitch black silence again.
——
As He Ao walked out of the street, his hands shook and he almost fell to the ground.
The box is still a bit heavy, and Joey's weak body is still unable to lift it.
This should be an insulated refrigeration box, used to carry valuable items that need to be stored in refrigerated conditions.
Super memory has 30 seconds of free time every day. Since Joey's body has no ability, He Ao can only continuously turn on and off super memory to extend the time he can fight.
Even so, in the past few minutes, he spent more than a few seconds, and his soul became weaker.
So from this aspect, he quite needs these corpse flowers now.
One of the uses of corpse flowers is to restore the soul.
This is equivalent to giving He Ao the opportunity to take drugs to replenish his life.
He Ao carried his suitcase and walked for a while. Then he found a shopping mall and stored the suitcase in a safe locker in the mall. The storage price was a little high, three federal coins per hour, but it was cheaper than a taxi fare.
.
After depositing the box, He Ao entered the depths of Aston District and returned to an old street at the darkest hour of the night.
He stood at the end of the street, looked up, and the neon sign that was not very conspicuous in the street fell into his eyes.
Enol Restaurant.
Then he withdrew his gaze and turned to the other side.
The TV at the door of a tavern next to him was playing some kind of political commentary program.
······
"In the past two months, the protests against the mayor's protest against the breeding of exotic animals have not only not stopped, but have intensified. After the failure of the previous impeachment, the city council once again launched the second impeachment of the mayor. Many netizens believe that
This impeachment will be successful." The host looked at the guest next to him, who was a silver-haired man with long hair and a ponytail.
"Professor Searle, do you think Mayor Winter will become the first mayor to be impeached and removed from office?"
"Although everyone is very enthusiastic, I may want to pour cold water on everyone. Mayor Winter will not be impeached and step down."
Seer looked at the host with a smile, then he paused, and continued in the host's surprised eyes, "You may think that I am a supporter of Mayor Winter, but in fact I am his opponent. I
Hate him, but here we have to mention some interesting laws."
Seer took out a thin small book and showed it to the camera. The small book clearly showed a line of large gilded characters, "Morning City Constitution", "This is the revised version of the Morningside City Constitution in 654 years of the Federation, and it is also the constitution of Chenxi City that we are currently working on."
Using the Constitution, we can see that Article 2 of the Constitution is all about the mayor, and it is written in Article 2, Section 4, "
The text of Article 2, Section 4 of the Constitution was displayed on the screen,
"'The mayor of Chenxi City may be impeached and convicted for 'treason' and other crimes." In other words, if Mayor Wente is successfully impeached this time, he will immediately face prosecution charges and become the first in the history of Chenxi City.
A convicted mayor, if the crime is confirmed, Mayor Vint will face at least a hundred years in prison,"
At this point, Seul paused, "Although I also hope that this thing will come true, it is impossible. Mayor Winter can completely avoid these convictions as long as he makes reasonable use of the rules of this constitution."
He moved the constitution book, and another part of the page was displayed on the screen, "According to Article 2, Section 2 of the Constitution, the mayor of Chenxi City has the power to pardon any criminal in Chenxi City.
Of course... under impeachment, he cannot pardon himself, but if we make reasonable use of another article of the Constitution, he can easily be acquitted,"
Seer continued to turn the pages of the book, and a new article appeared on the screen, Article 25, "According to Article 25 of the Chenxi City Constitution, in the event that the mayor is removed from office, dies or resigns, the deputy mayor shall become the mayor.
, and most of the time, the deputy mayor is the mayor’s running mate and the mayor’s community of interests.”
He closed the Chenxi City Constitution in his hand, "Based on the above, we can actually roughly guess what Mayor Winter will do next. If impeachment is unavoidable, in order to prevent himself from being convicted, he will submit his resignation to the city council.
After his resignation, the post of mayor will be taken over by the current deputy mayor Evanson, who will continue to fulfill the unfinished mayoral term of Vent. At this time, Evanson will exercise his mayoral prerogatives.
Forgive all Vent's crimes.
Therefore, Mayor Winter will not be impeached and removed from office, because he may have resigned before he was impeached and removed from office."
······
He Ao took his eyes away from the TV, crossed the tavern, and walked towards the apartment building behind the street.
He went upstairs in a familiar manner and stopped in front of a door in the corner.
A thin layer of dust has accumulated on the dark combination lock, which seems to indicate that no one has been here for a long time.
This is Roy's apartment.
He Ao pressed his finger on the password lock and entered the password.
Click——
With a soft sound, the combination lock opened.
As Howo expected, neither Vianna nor Naomi changed the password of this room.
He Ao put his hand on the door handle and gently pushed the door open.
