The mayor finally had a proper cup of coffee. The past was already unbearable to look back on.
The bodyguards all started to eat. Only Yu Tian and Piggy Liang did not take the matter of eating to heart.
The mayor was the same. Right now, other than drinking a few mouthfuls of coffee, he did not have any appetite for the time being.
This was just convenient for Piggy Liang to communicate with him. “Mayor Edward… is there a problem with me calling you that?”
“Ah, you can just call me Edward.
“Alright Edward, let’s get straight to the point… why did you make a move on the East Dragon Company?”
“East Dragon Company? Oh No, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t do what happened to the East Dragon Company!
Mayor Edward hurriedly waved his hand and denied, “I just signed a few words. I’m not clear about the inside story.
Piggy smiled and said, “Of course, we know… This matter has nothing to do with you. Then, can you tell us who is the mastermind of the whole thing?”
Mayor Edward did not need to use torture to extract a confession, he said straightforwardly, “It’s Leon. This matter was proposed by him. The document sent to the police headquarters was also drafted by him. What I did was just to sign a word… ”
“who’s Leon?”
“Leon is a member of the Twilight City Council.” “Just a member of the Council? What else?”
“Well, he’s a businessman, a very rich businessman…
“Oh, then what business does he do?”
“He has a lot of business, has shares in many listed companies, and is very close to the state government… that’s all I know.”Mayor Edward spread his hands. “Leon doesn ‘t often stay in Twilight City. He just occasionally comes to inspect his properties in Twilight City and gather with his friends…”
“So, Leon is the only one involved in this matter?”
“UH, there are a few other members of the parliament, including the deputy mayor. They all support Leon’s proposal…” Edward blinked.
Brother Pig smiled. “Support like you do?”
Edward said awkwardly, “I don’t really support it. It’s just that everyone feels that we should immediately launch an investigation into the criminal activities of the East Dragon Company, so I can only agree…”
Brother pig shrugged. “1 can understand. This is called having no choice.
Edward nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes. In fact, as the mayor, I don’t have too much power, and I won’t participate in your business competition…”
Brother pig said again, “Then, where are the East Dragon Company employees that you have arrested?”
Edward said, “I don’t know about that. This matter has always been handled by Councilman Leon and the police chief. I don’t know much about the specific situation. “Even if we enter the judicial process, it has nothing to do with me, the mayor…”
Piggy Liang said, “What if I want you to release the East Dragon Company employees?”
Mayor Edward hurriedly shook his head. “That’s impossible. I don’t have that right. That’s a matter for the police and the judges… Councilman Leon has more influence over them. I think you should talk to councilman Leon.
Piggy smiled and said, “No, I don’t like that Councilman Leon. I just want to talk to you… What if Councilman Leon dies? Wouldn’t your influence on this city be even greater? Shouldn’t the police and the judge respect you more?”
Mayor Edward was a little surprised. After a long while, his eyes gradually lit up again.
He hesitated and said, “If something really happened to councilman Leon, this will indeed happen… but there are other councilmen in Twilight City. Their combined influence is also very big.
Brother pig smiled and said, “Then they will die together… What do you think?”
Mayor Edward was stunned. “Die together? This kind of accident… doesn’t seem reasonable, right?”
Piggy Liang said, “What’s unreasonable about it? Do you know what an accident is?”
Edward hesitated and said, “Something with a small probability…
“No, “Piggy Liang corrected him. “The police said that they were an accident, and they were an accident.
Edward could only slowly nod in agreement.
Piggy Liang said again, “Leon and his good friends will definitely get together often, right?”
“UH… ”
“Then they can die together. It’s very reasonable.
“UH… ” “The election that comes once every six years is coming soon, right?”
“UH… ” “Don’t you and your little friends want to get more seats in the Parliament?” “UH… ”
“If Leon and the others suddenly die, there shouldn’t be many competitors like this in dusk city, right?”
Edward seemed to be tempted. He clapped his hands and said, “Well… we all compete through proper means.
Brother pig said, “Of course, we have to use proper means to compete you will use the most proper means to defeat those weak opponents!
Edward continued to rub his hands. “If Congressman Leon and the others are gone… there really won’t be any strong opponents.
Brother pig nodded. “So, Councilman Leon and the others will definitely die.”
Edward was a little hesitant. “But, with so many serious accidents happening all at once, Twilight City will definitely become chaotic…
Brother pig said slowly, “Twilight City has already become chaotic, and after your disappearance as the mayor, it will definitely become even more chaotic… but this is not your fault. After the chaos happens, you will appear in time and turn the tide, calming down all the chaos and returning Twilight City to the right track!
Edward’s eyes lit up again, but he was still hesitant.
Piggy Liang slowly retracted his smile, he said indifferently, “Mayor Edward, you’ve seen our actions today, and you know how we do things. “Believe me, Twilight City will soon fall into chaos. We have the ability. “And you… definitely don’t want to take the blame.
Edward was silent.
Piggy Liang and the others swaggered into the city hall today and then kidnapped him. This was definitely not something that an ordinary criminal could do.
In fact, Edward did not know much about the East Dragon Company. Many officials in twilight city had always thought that it was just an ordinary small winery. Because of the business competition, they had offended some of the city council officials in Twilight City.
Because the DONGLONG company wanted to make the headquarters more secretive, they didn’t let the winery get involved with the big business groups of the DONGLONG company on the surface. It did look like an ordinary small winery.
But after the officials in Twilight City took action against the winery, Edward realized that something was wrong..
