Chapter 52: Mayor Reinham (seeking follow-up reading)
Helot has calculated that the value of one gold coin in the game is equivalent to 0.7 gold pounds, which is 700 when converted into an imperial shield.
My father gave himself three million game gold coins, and the result was 2.1 billion Imperial Shields.
This pocket money is more generous than my mother’s.
So Helot directly used gold to settle the food purchase payment at once, and gave Sanders a few gold bars to exchange for gold pounds and imperial shields.
Then, under the watch of Sanders, who was holding gold bars and looking confused, he walked out of Sanders Food Company.
As soon as they walked out the door, they were blocked by Detective Morpheus and a team of police officers armed with live ammunition.
"Mr. Claulund..." Morpheus took off his hat and saluted Helot: "The mayor heard that the new owner of Clallund Manor came to Hog Town, and specially ordered me to come and invite him. Sir, go to the town meeting hall. "
Many townspeople gathered outside. They heard that the young man in front of them was the new owner of Claulund Manor, and they all talked in low voices.
"Have you heard? Inspector Morpheus dug up the bodies of many children near Crowlund Manor."
"I heard about it! And those children were beheaded, their internal organs were emptied, and they were made into corpse puppets. It's so cruel!"
"Necromancers should be burned at the stake! These children steal corpses and mutilate them. All the children must be burned to death!”
“Keep your voice down, don’t let Clallund hear it, he will look for you at night”
“The one next to Clallund. The woman is so beautiful!”
“Yes, so beautiful. Why is she with a necromancer?”
"Some young people are rebellious and think this is a cool thing, but they don't know that the necromancer just wants to make her into a corpse puppet."
"We can't let the necromancer kill more people. ”
……
These words reached Helot’s ears.
I have to admire the good publicity in Hog Town. The Crowlund Manor, which had done nothing bad, turned into the biggest evil!
Herot said to Morpheus: "I just want to visit our mayor, please lead the way!"
"Please come with me." Morpheus made an invitation and Don’t forget to remind: “Now the townspeople of Hog Town have a deep misunderstanding of Claude Manor. If they say anything unpleasant, please bear with me.
I think the mayor must He can clear up false rumors for Clairund Manor as soon as possible."
Helot smiled: "Rumors are not terrible, but the people who create rumors are terrible!"
Morpheus. The detective asked alertly: "What does 伱 mean?"
"You should understand what I mean. Let's go... don't keep the mayor waiting."
Helot strode forward, and Bresini sensed the danger and tightened her grip. Follow him.
Inspector Morpheus gave Helot a hard look and led the sheriffs towards the town meeting hall.
The Hog Town Assembly Hall is a three-story building, facing the fountain in the central square of the town.
The mayor's office is on the top floor of the council chamber.
When Herot came in under the "protection" of Morpheus, the mayor Reinham was standing by the window looking at the scenery outside.
Morpheus stood at attention and saluted Reinham: "Lord Mayor, we have brought Herot Claude." Reinham turned around and saw a man not much older than Herot. A young man with blond hair and a sunny smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, Inspector Morpheus. I would like to have a private chat with Mr. Claude."
"Yes, Mr. Mayor .”
Morpheus walked out the door.
Helot said to Bressini behind him: "Wait for me outside the door."
"Yes, Master." Bressini exited the door.
The door is closed.
"Please sit down." Reinham sat back behind his desk, took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, and asked Helot: "Do you smoke?"
Helot sat down and replied: "No, thank you."
Reinham took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, used magic to create a flame and lit the cigarette, took a deep breath, and exhaled the smoke Said: "I have just taken office and don't know much about the situation in Hog Town, but I have heard of the Claude family when I was very young.
Once the 12th founding Duke, the entire Hog Town They are all the territory of the Claude family.”
Helot responded: “That was a thing in the past. The current Claude family can hardly maintain its last dignity.”
Reinham nodded: "I can understand your mood, but Hog Town also has the difficulties of Hog Town. The train entering Hog Town allows the closed townspeople to see what kind of world is outside. , everyone wants to live a prosperous life outside, and such a life requires a lot of money
The town needs development, and the Crowlund Manor full of undead is undoubtedly hindering the town's development, and I hope you can understand. "
Helot said: "I heard that Hog Town has always wanted to demolish the Crowlund Manor. "
"Yes! The town council has discussed this matter many times, but without a member of the Claude family present, we were unable to make a final decision. "
Helot smiled and said: "None of you dare to bear the anger from the empire! Even if the empire's anger is just a show, someone will eventually pay the price. "
Reinham looked at Herot, and after a while, he smiled and said: "You are smarter than I thought, but you should not give the corpse of the seamer to Morpheus. The current public opinion in the entire Hog Town is very unfavorable to the Claude family. If the town council now forcibly promotes the passing of the resolution to demolish the Claude Manor, the anger of the empire may be a small spark that will not hurt anyone. ”
Helot also looked at Reinham and said jokingly: "I gave the corpse of the corpse stitcher to Morpheus on purpose. Some people want to swallow up the Claude Manor, and I also want to take over the Claude Manor. The land is coming back.
Lord Mayor, this is not a good position for you to sit in! If you are not careful, the whole town of Hog will become a river of blood."
Reinham stopped smoking. He looked at Hailot with a murderous look in his eyes: "Are you threatening me?"
"I'm reminding you. Which big family should you be from to arrange for gold plating in Hog Town? Don't do it in a hurry. Instead of making political achievements, he brought himself in."
Reinham stared at Helot, but couldn't tell whether he was bluffing.
"Boy, I don't know where your confidence comes from. But I have done an in-depth investigation into the Claude family. It has declined very thoroughly, and being associated with the undead is not accepted by the current mainstream consciousness. Accepting reality is very important to Claude. The De family is the best choice. I can give you a piece of land in the mountains to rebuild the Crowlund Manor, and the town can also give you a compensation."
Helot laughed and stood up." This shows that your investigation of the Clolund family is not deep enough. I am afraid that you don’t even know where I come from and what my relationship is with the missing Weston Clolund.
Collapse that poor thing. Please give me some charity, the Claude family is not short of money.
Goodbye, Mr. Mayor!”
