Chapter 504 Goodbye Ran Xinzhu
"Hopes and goals..."
Sean chewed on these two unfamiliar-looking words.
In the wasteland world, the concept of the word hope is too abstract, and goals are just plans for the past few days for many people.
I didn't expect that these candidates from outside the city would find these things so quickly.
"It's weird. Is it because of the mountain of survivors? Or is there something wrong with the big crack?" Sean still didn't understand.
The strangest thing is that Sean has always cared more about the residents in the city than the candidates outside the city.
The residents in the city can be said to live and work in peace and contentment, and various laws and regulations are more complete than before. They indeed live in a more orderly life. Compared with the previous Paradise City, the environment in the city is countless times better.
However, residents in the city still retain many of their past living habits, and the black market in the city continues to be banned. The frequency of violent incidents has dropped significantly, but it has not completely disappeared.
In comparison, the candidates outside the city were more pure.
Is it because there is a target entering the city? Sean thought thoughtfully.
"It's like going through a huge ritual that can purify the soul..." He couldn't help but complain.
But such a ceremony would probably be even larger in scale than the reshaping ceremony where the evil god descended.
"Is it because the World Tree has begun to revive?" Sean suddenly thought of a possibility.
The revival of the World Tree has become more and more obvious in recent times. Just instinct can kill the body of the evil god. It is reasonable that this change can have an impact on the entire world.
Regardless of the truth, though, Sean's experiment has seen changes, albeit not the ones he originally expected.
"It's just that, as for the empire, should we proceed as planned..." Sean hesitated in a rare moment.
In his plan, unlike Paradise City, the Empire will begin to embark on the path of war expansion, and he will build the Empire into the true overlord of the Pancontinent. By that time, the changes made by the Imperial people will definitely be of more reference value.
Just thinking about the problem, the night passed. When dawn came, someone knocked on the wooden house where Sean temporarily lived. This was the property that Ilya saved and specifically gave to him to stay for one night.
After opening the door and walking towards him, Illya said hello to him and immediately smiled: "Wow, most people can't fall asleep when they come here for the first time. You are so energetic. You seem to have slept soundly?"
Crimson Peak can probably go without sleep for several years... Sean smiled casually: "Thank you for giving me the place to live."
"You're welcome, I won't hide it from you. This is mainly to gain favor so that you can stay in our team."
At the pinnacle of the elite, Illya was reluctant to let go of such a strong person.
Just as he was talking about exchanging the loot he brought back yesterday for points, someone suddenly ran over and called Illya aside.
The two whispered a few words, and Illya immediately said angrily: "Why?!"
"Hey, please keep your voice down! Come here..." The man quickly pulled the angry Ilya away.
Sean's ear would not miss it, and the conversation between the two fell on his ears.
It turns out that the girl Elisa who led the candidates to stop the Rainbow Nest clan is Illya’s sister...
In the morning, the dispute that had originally subsided started again for unknown reasons, and even reached the point of violence. As a result, the sheriff died unexpectedly in the chaos. And Illya and a group of leaders were taken away by the security team, and it was said that they would be transferred directly to the police station in the city. There are different management methods inside and outside the walls of Paradise City. Outside the city, the security team is mainly responsible, and law enforcement is very loose. After all, as long as there is no trouble in the city, it will be fine. The police station is responsible for the city, and the current police station is not what it used to be. Punishments for various illegal and criminal activities are very severe.
People outside the city often jokingly say that in addition to working hard to interview and enter the city, another way is to make a big noise to attract the police. After grabbing the police station, it is considered to have entered the city - anyway, I heard that people taken away by the police need to be in jail. Stayed there for many years.
Her sister was taken away, how could Ilia not be anxious.
After a while, Illya hurried back. She looked at Sean and apologized: "I'm sorry, uncle, I can't take you to the place where you handed in the task. I have something to do - I'll give you this map. You can do it yourself." Let’s take a trip.”
Sean didn't say anything, just nodded.
Illya nodded and ran away. After a while, she actually organized a large number of people.
It seems that she is going to repeat her sister's operation and bring the public to apply pressure.
"It's strange that they are united..." Sean chuckled and followed the end of the team.
He walked slowly, and when he arrived, a large number of candidates had gathered at the city gate. Different from the privileged behavior against the Hongchao clan yesterday, this time they came to ask for people.
Illya and several others stood in front, confronting the law enforcement officers of Paradise City.
Sean looked inside, and the corners of his eyes suddenly twitched.
This time the person standing in front was not the police chief, but the police chief and the captain's sister whom he had not seen for a long time.
Ran Xinzhu.
Before, he and Ran Xinzhu had a conflict over some things. To be honest, it wasn't even a conflict, it was more like Ran Xinzhu had a little temper. However, with Sean's character, how could he take the initiative to apologize and coax her? He didn't even say goodbye to Ran Xinzhu when he left Paradise City.
After not seeing each other for so long, the other party has already become the chief of the police station.
"With her character, I'm afraid she will hate me to death." The corners of Sean's mouth slowly raised a slight arc.
Facing the dense crowd of candidates at the front of the team, Ran Xinzhu just glanced around calmly. She looked at the leaders and said coldly: "It should be said that I have made it very clear. What other answers do you want to get?"
Illya said angrily: "The sheriff was trampled to death in an accident. My sister and her team did nothing, why should they be captured!"
Ran Xinzhu frowned, and the authority of the police chief who had always been in a high position radiated: "Did nothing? The previous conflict was caused by them. When the accident happened, Elisa was fully capable of stopping it, but she couldn't do anything. Not done. And, let me emphasize again, I will take them back to the police station for interrogation as suspects. If this accident has nothing to do with them, they will be released naturally."
She snorted coldly: "Now, are you planning to attack public officials?"
Illya became more and more angry and was about to continue talking, but was interrupted by another person.
Turning around, he saw that it was the leader of the Hongchao Clan.
Luo Xi and Ran Xinzhu knew each other, but Luo Xi just pretended that they had never met each other and said calmly: "According to the public security laws outside the city, those people should not be arrested."
The crowd erupted into an uproar.
Yesterday, it was Eliza who led people to stop the Hongchao clan from entering the city. Today, the Hongchao clan came to speak for Eliza?
Director Ran Xinzhu pursed his lips, and his expression suddenly turned unkind.
