"He agreed, he agreed, he really agreed to meet with me." Mr. Alfonso jumped up and down like a monkey in his bedroom, "Hahaha..., I am one step closer to truly taking charge of power.
.I can definitely become the real governor of the Yucatan region.
I know I will succeed, I know I will succeed. I am really a genius. My father always used to praise me for being smart. I am indeed a smart person, right? The ideas I come up with are simply brilliant!"
Lamps, books, vases, and even tables and chairs were all thrown around by the ecstatic Governor, and the bells kept ringing in the bedroom. Old Martin, the butler of the Governor's Mansion, stood beside him with his head lowered, his face expressionless all the time.
expression.
"Old Martin, you have done a great job. Don't worry, I will reuse you. I know you are the one I really trust." Alfonso finally calmed down a little, but his face could not hide his joy. He took a few deep breaths
He patted the old butler on the shoulder and promised: "When I gain power, you will be my biggest helper, and I will make your family more prosperous.
But the things at hand still need to be arranged. What kind of clothes do you think I should wear to see Victor Hugo? I hope to appear in front of him in a majestic manner. He should be considered a big shot, at least.
My father was driven back from Cuba by him. Do you think it would be better for me to be a little more humble, or should I try my best to show my charm to convince him?"
Alfonso talked a lot, but he never thought about what he should talk to Zhou Qingfeng and what conditions he should use to exchange for his support. The old housekeeper who was supposed to remind him didn't say anything, and kept his head lowered as if
Think about other things.
While the master and servant were having a secret conversation in the bedroom, the door opened with a clang, and Lula, the captain of the military police wearing black boots, walked in from the outside with a sly smile on his face, "Governor Alfonso, tonight
Okay. Judging from your expression, you seem to be in high spirits!"
The Governor was originally as happy as an inflated ball, but when he looked at Lula, it felt as if he had been pricked by a needle, and deflated with a bang. He stared blankly, and his mouth could not be closed, as if he had encountered a poisonous snake.
The mice dared not move.
This weird posture made the smile on Lula's face even more ferocious. The captain of the military police approached Alfonso and looked him up and down carefully. Wherever he looked, Alfonso trembled, and
Other places remain stiff and motionless.
"You..., what's the matter?" Governor Alfonso suppressed the fear in his heart and asked pretending to be calm.
"It's a small matter." Lula approached Alfonso and whispered in his ear: "I just received news that someone in the Governor's Palace has been missing for the past two days, but he suddenly appeared outside the city today.
came back.
You know that people from the 'Aurora Legion' are now active around our city. I have been investigating various suspicious people, and I am worried that someone in the city will collude with outsiders. I just want to ask what this suspicious person is doing?
I'm even more thinking, does this person have any special mission? Is there anyone else supporting him?"
Lula's gaze was like a poisonous snake or a jackal, staring at Alfonso with goosebumps all over his body. Every time the latter heard a question from the other party, he would tremble with fear, "Sir Lula, I don't understand what you mean?
What can I do in the Governor's Palace? Nothing!"
"That's right. You don't even know who is in the Governor's Palace." Lula sneered and agreed with Alfonso's explanation. He then turned to look at the old butler Martin, who was standing blankly, and asked: "Old man
, you must know something, right? Don’t hide it from me, because you can’t hide anything.”
Old Martin still had a dull face, but before he opened his mouth to argue, Governor Alfonso shouted loudly: "I want to make it clear first of all that if this old man does anything, it has nothing to do with me. In fact, in this Governor's Mansion,
No one obeys my orders at all, and I don’t know anything.”
Seeing His Excellency the Governor's hurried explanation, the old butler Martin was not surprised at all. He still had a dull face and said very calmly: "Your Excellency Lula, if you want to investigate someone in the Governor's Mansion, I can tell everyone
Everyone is called here for you to interrogate one by one.
But I can guarantee that no one in the Governor’s Mansion has left or disappeared in the past few days. This is well documented. Everyone has a record of being on duty."
"Oh, really?" Hearing the old butler's calmness, Lula's suspicion was greatly reduced. He waved his hand and smiled: "Actually, I just investigated the situation in the Governor's Mansion these days, and it is true that no one left. Maybe it is.
I thought wrong, I'm sorry. Actually I just came to ask, I seem to have scared you all, hahaha..."
Lula arrived suddenly and left in a hurry, as if he just came to tease Governor Alfonso.
But when the figure of the executioner disappeared, Governor Alfonso was sweating profusely, and sat down on the ground with soft hands and feet. While he was panting heavily, he murmured in a panic: "It's over, I was killed by Lu
He was eyeing me, and now I was really targeted by him.
Old Martin, look at the good things you did! The person you found leaked the secret, and you ruined me. Do you understand? You damn old fool, I really shouldn't have found someone as old as you who can't walk.
Do something for me. I trusted you so much, but you betrayed my trust.
Lula, this mad dog, must have discovered something, and he will definitely continue to investigate, and he will definitely find something. I am dead now, really dead!"
The Governor, who had been so confident just now, suddenly became as soft as clay and began to cry bitterly. He first scolded his old butler, and then lay on the bedside with tears streaming down his face, as if the sky was falling, and he died.
My parents are still sad.
The old butler Martin still had no reaction to this scene. He stood blankly for a long time and suddenly said: "Your Majesty the Governor, maybe things can turn around and bad things can turn into good things."
The old butler spoke very calmly before, but when he spoke this time, his tone became calm and powerful, as if he had made some kind of decision. And Governor Alfonso crawled on his knees like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw.
He came over, took his hand and said, "Tell me, do you have any other ideas?"
"Perhaps we can capture Victor Hugo, the commander of the regiment who took the risk to come to Mexico. There must not be many people around him. As long as we mobilize enough troops, we are still sure of success.
Regardless of life or death, as long as you capture the opponent, you can say that this is a strategy you have thought of for a long time, specially designed to get rid of the enemy of the Enclave. As for not telling Lula, of course it is to keep it secret."
After the old butler finished speaking, Governor Alfonso jumped up again like an inflated rubber ball, and shouted loudly with bright eyes: "This is a good idea. As long as we can catch Victor Hugo, I will
My father will definitely appreciate me, and the top management of the Enclave will also appreciate me. I can also be a powerful governor. This is a great idea!"
