Enid ordered some food and took the opportunity to ask the boss if the TV volume could be turned down.
She actually doesn't like dining in noisy environments, but another more powerful habit made Enid choose this restaurant - she needs to keep her brain thinking at all times, otherwise the excess brain power and energy will make her very tired.
Headache.
The news broadcast on TV can give her a little fun to think about.
Enid used it as background music during meals so that she could do two things at once.
After several days of investigation, she has figured out the entire process of Bakona's disappearance and confirmed that he is no longer alive. When it comes to the World Parliament and the dragon, she only found out how the final tragedy happened, but not the detailed inside story.
Very understanding.
So when the investigation results were returned to Sylvielandi, Enid did not explain the reason, but said it was an accident.
In fact, according to her investigation, it was indeed an accident.
The World Council and the dragons seemed to be preparing to build something. The two families were connected because of Bacona's brother's marriage, and finally helped Copper Blue Construction get the opportunity to build it.
After the official start of construction, a giant dragon, accompanied by the council, quietly came to Copperblue City, preparing to attend a banquet to welcome them.
Bakona learned about this from his brother and asked for the opportunity to attend the banquet, trying to get acquainted with a giant dragon, which would give him more bragging rights in front of his friends.
As a result, an accident happened at the banquet. The dragon was drunk and bit off the head of Bacona, who had been leaning towards him.
Happy events turn into sad events.
Thinking of this, Enid shook her head sadly. There were still many details about this matter that were still a mystery, but she could only investigate this far.
Bacona's family chose to endure it and did not even announce the death. The matter could only be left alone because she did not have the ability to punish the criminals.
"...the five-year-old son of the Serves family disappeared from a supermarket near their home yesterday and was suspected to have been taken away by kidnappers, but his parents have not received any information about the kidnapping..."
A muted sound came from the direction of the TV, reporting a missing child case. Out of professional habit, Enid looked up and took note of the child's appearance.
"Compared to that guy, maybe I'm better suited to deal with this kind of kid?" Enid joked to herself, feeling pretty good.
...
There is a person who is thinking about the same thing, and his mood is not so good.
Drew is still in Desperate Town, and he has a heavy responsibility.
The news that Boncells brought out from the grassland has reached the parliament. The corpse of a god is about to break through the barrier, and countless accompanying rot insects will cause unpredictable disasters.
At the same time, the hairs on the rot worms that Renn gave to Bonsells were also delivered to the Parliament. The results of the test silenced those present in the Parliament. The weapons of the general troops under the Parliament could not damage them at all. Ordinary
Magic also had little effect.
According to Boncells' description, the thickness of the hair on the body of the rot worms, as well as their number, are simply not something that the elite troops of the Council and even fewer strong men can handle.
The parliament hoped to get support from other forces, the first of which was of course a few powerful clans. However, before the outsiders could contact them, they were in chaos internally.
The problem lies with the dragon.
The permanent representative of the dragon clan to the World Parliament and one of the deputy speakers was the old dragon Kaser. Originally, the parliament hoped that he could take the lead. Even if only one or two dragons participated, it would be a great deal for the future coalition forces.
The combat power is improved.
But Kaser has been in an extremely bad mood recently, saying that he can't get rid of the "dragon" hand.
Well, speaking of it, it has something to do with Ren, or rather the armored monster.
First, Sprague, who was on a business trip, was killed by an armored monster in the territory of the Howling Eagles. Then, Ramki, the dragon representative who went to Brica, died under mysterious circumstances.
Then a few days ago, the dragon sent another tribesman to sneak into Brica, trying to find out any news about the gods and the armored monsters. As a result, he left without saying a word, and even took the three officially sent later to negotiate.
All the representatives who fished for people were imprisoned by the woman from Brica.
It is said that inside, they are arranged to work overtime every day to print various new regulations of Brica.
So there is one thing to say, the recent losses of the dragon clan are indeed not small, but it should be no problem to mobilize a little more strength, especially at this critical moment.
But for this reason, Kaser was unwilling to provide help, and he also found a lame excuse like "worrying that the Bacona family would be dissatisfied and behind the scenes" and went to work as an overseer in Copperblue City.
Speaking of Copperblue City, Drew now regrets extremely that he should not have agreed to that proposal in the first place.
This is a friendly exchange plan passed not long ago, aiming to provide more opportunities for ordinary people and dragons to understand and communicate with each other. The content is roughly to select a city and create a residence for the dragons, so that both parties can
Close communication.
After all, as one of the races in modern society that still maintains some cannibalistic habits, you can't expect the dragons to have much respect for other races.
Faced with their unfriendly attitude, in turn, except for a few people who have unrealistic illusions about these dragons, most ordinary people do not like these big guys from the bottom of their hearts even though they do not know about their cannibalism.
So some people in the parliament believed that as long as the two sides have more exchanges and understand each other, this gap can be resolved. The dragons may not eat people in the future, and the public will no longer be afraid of the dragons.
This plan had been proposed a long time ago, but the dragons scorned it. One of the dragons present even joked: "Are you going to build us a 'snack shop'?"
The person who proposed it was so frightened that he never talked about it again.
But after Sprague's death, the dragon clan's anger had no place to vent, and they were ready to go on a killing spree. They wanted to eat a few people to pay homage to Sprague, who died because of eating. Someone brought up the old case again, and it was considered a crime.
As a pacification strategy, they persuaded Kaser several times, hoping that he would put the overall situation first and try to calm down the dragons.
Probably because he was allowed to set an example and agree to the exchange plan. As one of the leaders of the dragon clan, once he releases a friendly message, the dragons below will not go too far.
Kaser really didn't want to cause too much trouble at the time. It was okay for the clansmen to eat one or two occasionally, and no one would be an enemy of the dragon clan because of this. But eating too much would force others to take action.
So he agreed to the plan.
Unexpectedly, something went wrong again. The representative of the dragon bit off Bacona's head after drinking it.
"This bastard has the nerve to mention Bakona!"
Drew is now a little afraid of what Kaser will do after going to Copperblue City, and he even dares not think about what will happen after the dragon territory is established in the future.
...
Enid felt that the investigation into Copperblue City could basically only go so far, but the remaining mysteries made her not want to leave just like that. The project would definitely continue to be built, and maybe she would know more in the future.
So she decided to do something else first, such as the missing child case.
At this time, the news being broadcast on the TV was suddenly interrupted, and the host said excitedly that he needed to insert a piece of news:
"At the swordsmanship competition being held in Fenxin Kingdom, the armored monster appeared again and was an invited guest!"
Enid waved to the boss: "Boss, please turn up the TV volume, thank you."
