Chapter 904: A Focused Gaze (Part II)
The steaming soy milk and fritters were freshly baked, and the aroma permeated the entire restaurant, and a clerk struggled to carry a bucket of soy milk and a frame of fried dough sticks to the dining room on the third floor, and more than a dozen tables were all full of people, and more than 50 men and women in parliamentarian uniforms were looking out the window, diagonally opposite the subway station, and at this time, a large number of reporters who were allowed to interview had passed through the human wall built by the bureau and went to the surroundings of the Angus couple.
Lin Min was also among them, she clasped her hands, staring sharply, as if she had something on her mind, she had a rebuttal with Le Xiao in the Congress hall before, and at that time she found that this girl was completely different from other high-ranking people in the department, more like an ignorant little girl who could be seen everywhere on the street at the bottom.
A somewhat bitter smile appeared at the corner of Lin Min's mouth, among the 60 districts at the bottom, there are 600 parliamentarians, two-thirds of them rely on middle- and upper-level parliamentarians, belonging to different factions.
Now the councillors gathered in the house are all non-factional councillors, and Lin Min is even more so, she was originally a representative of the district councilor in District 113, and after the joint riot in District 113 and 114, Lin Min has nothing, fortunately, there are councilors in District 108 whose term of office has expired, and in desperation, she turned to a former friend, the middle-level councilor Elena.
In the end, Elena's faction accepted her, and soon Lin Min went to District 109 to succeed her, but everything could only be done according to orders, and in the last hearing in the Congress Hall, she was the first to be thrown out, and the people behind wanted to see Le Xiao's attitude, or the attitude of the tentative department.
Although the last incident was somewhat bumpy, it was still completed, and Elena was also satisfied, after this incident, Lin Min rarely participated in the gatherings of their faction councilors, because she felt uncomfortable.
The reason why she will embark on the road of councillor is because Lin Min was also born in a slum area, she has witnessed countless unrest at the bottom, she wants to change the situation at the bottom, but the reality is helpless and desperate, she has tried countless times, shouted and fought for everything in the block, but she has no strength.
Lin Min swept around, many of the councilors in the room hoped to come here through Le Xiao, have a good relationship with her, and seek something from Le Xiao's body, these councilors came from many districts at the bottom, and non-factional councilors are usually the mouthpiece of faction councilors or a tool for certain time periods, or more like a congressional vote, they get some financial help from faction councilors, and most of them rely on this money to maintain the votes of parliamentarians.
Once the general election begins, these people will give a little benefit to some people in the area, and they will naturally vote for these people.
Lin Min also spent such days, once she wanted to pull up some like-minded friends to achieve reform in the region, but she gave up many years ago, but now Lin Min's heart is hot.
"Hello Miss Lin Min!"
It is convenient for a young man with a square face, he is Fei Xin, who is a first-time member of parliament, he had greeted Le Xiao in the hall of the Congress before, and said some things like the bottom environment, and then he used to go to Le Xiao's place to live and wait for many days, but he didn't see Le Xiao.
"May I sit next to you?"
Fei Xin was holding two bowls of soy milk and a plate of fried dough sticks, as well as a box of sugar, Lin Min nodded, and after sitting down, Fei Xin looked at the light and shadow screen, where the Angus couple were answering questions from reporters.
"The reason why our husband and wife came here is to congratulate Secretary Le Xiao on returning to her hometown for the National Assembly bill, this is also the first time she has implemented the bill, and our family has also said before that we are willing to support the establishment of the barrier area agricultural experimental base in the hands of Secretary Le Xiao, and we are here today to hope that when Secretary Le Xiao is free, we will talk to her about this issue by the way."
"Miss Violet, there are rumors that the Angus family will invest in the bottom to a certain extent, is it true or false?"
Violet smiled and shook her head.
"Our family doesn't want to make a big investment in the bottom."
At this time, there was a commotion behind him, and a man wearing a white suit with a cigar in his mouth, a bloated figure, a big back, a dragon-shaped earring hanging from his left ear, a large nose, a full forehead, and a high hairline, walked up, followed by many people dressed formally.
"Yo, isn't this Avano, what a coincidence."
The man glanced at Avano as soon as he came up, but did not dare to look at Violet.
Avano walked over and shook hands with the man enthusiastically, many people behind him greeted Avano one after another, all of them had different shapes of camera patterns on their clothes and right arms, they were people from the Film Association, most of the people who came over were the bosses of the film company and some of the people in charge, the man headed by was the chairman of the Jiang Film Group, Jiang Hao, the head of the Jiang family, the eight major families in the city, and Avano were classmates and friends, but the two basically hadn't spoken for a long time.
Violet stared at Jiang Hao coldly, walked over and dragged Avano and was about to leave, Jiang Hao hurriedly nodded and smiled, Violet turned around and walked up, some reporters followed, and some reporters began to surround Jiang Hao, and the flow of people began to separate.
There are also many people who have appeared, all of them are celebrities in the upper echelons, including some celebrities, Jiang Hao is still talking in front of the camera.
"The main reason we came here this time is to take advantage of His Excellency Le Xiao's free time to talk about the construction of the cinema, after all, she is a busy person, and she has no time to talk about these things recently."
"Mr. Jiang Hao, there are rumors that you plan to make some small movies with a small budget, and these movies are too ....... because of the scale."
Jiang Hao's face immediately glared at the reporter who asked the question with a somewhat unhappy face, and he had already begun to scold in his heart.
What guy doesn't know whether to live or die? Dare to put the news out!
"Okay, we're going to go to the booked place in advance, forgive me."
Saying that, Jiang Hao walked briskly with people directly.
Lin Min and Fei Xin, who were sitting on the third floor of the restaurant opposite, quietly watched the people who kept pouring out of the subway station.
"Wow, I have a headache, but it's okay, it tastes so fragrant that I want to eat soy milk!"
With a burst of exclamations, a beautiful and cute little girl in a light blue dress came out of the subway station, followed by Wu Qun and Xingyuan, and for a while the crowd began to stir again, and some reporters were just about to lean over, but immediately the three directors of Section 1 directly refused their request for an interview.
Many people were puzzled, because they had never seen this little girl, and the people around this little girl were the head of the councilor's faction, the other was the famous writer Xingyuan, and the councillor of the 1st section guarded, a very strange and puzzling combination.
"I didn't expect Wu Qun to come too."
Fei Xin said, and Lin Min nodded.
"You have two months left in your term, are you going to make a final effort?"
Lin Min said with a smile, and Fei Xin snorted.
"Although I have only talked to Secretary Le Xiao for a few words, I always feel that I can talk to her about the underlying environment."
It was already past 7 o'clock, and the sun's rays had only spread to the bottom floor, and the street lights on the streets began to go out one by one.
At this time, there was a commotion downstairs, the little girl entered the store, and the entire 118 area began to become more and more hot with the people constantly pouring out of the subway station.
........
"It's over, overslept."
After Le Xiao finished washing up in Michelle's office, she turned on the light and shadow screen in a panic, the time was almost up, and she still had to put on makeup.
"Forget it, don't look at it, you can say whatever you want, after all, you should know a lot about Area 118."
Michelle said, and Le Xiao's face immediately soothed.
"Of course, Your Excellency the Secretary-General, I grew up there, and ......."
Alpha dragged Le Xiao out of the office, Michelle frowned slightly, the makeup artist at the door was already waiting, Le Xiao was immediately taken to a room that had been prepared next to her, sat on the chair and began to put on makeup, her mood was a little complicated at this time.
It's just going home, do you need it?
Alpha watched the news quietly, she looked at Le Xiao's appearance, she shouldn't have known that District 118 is now as hot as a festival at the end of the year, and all kinds of people are flocking to District 118, and things have become more complicated.
There are still many people who want to enter Area 118, but dozens of minutes ago, Section 3 has blocked the road to enter, and now there are more than 300,000 people in Area 118.
Alpha pressed her head with one hand, and after seeing her parents and the people from the film company, she looked at Rakuxiao again.
The day after tomorrow, Le Xiao will go to the site of the mutant exam as an examiner, originally tomorrow Michelle planned to tell Le Xiao something in person, but it seems that the time may not allow it, Michelle asked Alpha to read the whole process directly, and find time to tell Le Xiao that he will go directly to the mutant exam site the morning after tomorrow.
"That's all there is to it now."
Alpha felt a little tired, inexplicably tired, and at this time, Michelle walked out and handed over a bottle of energy supplements.
"Drink a little and you'll be sober."
After Alpha said thank you, Michelle walked briskly to Locke's office.
Alpha unscrewed the bottle and quickly drank the whole bottle, the taste was a little complicated, but it wasn't bad, she smiled and looked at Michelle who had rudely pushed open the door of Locke's office.
"Your Excellency, can you please get up?"
Locke snorted and struggled to get up, and walked out of the light and shadow compartment first, his wife was still asleep, he was wearing red and blue spotted pajamas, and sat on the edge of the sofa with a painful expression.
"It will be better to drink it."
syllable
Michelle put a bottle of energy supplement over, and Locke drank it bitterly, looking dazed.
"You go and sleep until 10 o'clock, Michelle, and I'll finish the rest of the work."
Michelle shook her head.
"A large amount of information has been sent to the General Affairs Section from Area 79, and we need to review it."
Locke came to his senses and stood up with sharp eyes.
"How many are there, District 118?"
"It's more than 300,000, and the viewership has covered almost the entire city."
Locke snorted.
"That's fine, I just hope that little girl can bear it."
"It's up to her to want to!"
.......
"Except for the three-day New Year's Eve celebration at the end of the year, the city hasn't had such a sensation for many years."
Tang Rao let out a puff of smoke slowly, Witt and Li Chu next to him nodded one after another, and the three of them walked on a winding path, and the two of them planned to accompany Tang Rao to pay tribute today.
Tang Rao's expression looked a little bitter, and the three of them were watching the live broadcast of Area 118.
"Isn't it nice that everyone's eyes are drawn to the past, and what happened last night is no longer worth mentioning."
Tang Rao giggled.
"Why didn't that bastard Jean go?"
Werther shook his head.
"That idiot should be basking in the sun on the top of a building right now."
"I've already told the section chiefs to downplay what happened last night in District 79 as soon as possible, but that guy Lewen has appeared recently, do you want to arrest him first? After all, he should already have a good result in his hands, otherwise he wouldn't dare to appear so blatantly. ”
Li Chu said that Tang Rao and Werther both stopped and looked at him.
"You guy, at least wait until Jean leaves, and his daughter is now the secretary of Section 13, sooner or later he will voluntarily hand it over, after all, what father in the world is not willing to support his daughter's work?"
Witt said, and Li Chu nodded.
"That's right, it depends on when he and his daughter recognize each other, I'll first ask King Xue's kid to draw up a countermeasure, in case one day their father and daughter recognize each other, after all, the stupid girl's father is a criminal, and he has to be washed away as a criminal."
Tang Rao laughed and walked briskly.
"Do you really think it's laundry detergent? Say wash it, how much harm did those reformers who came out of the riot of the colorful company cause to the city, and what has been completely exposed to the public, this matter will be dealt with by King Xue for the time being, and I can rest assured. ”
........
Located on the top floor of the Phoebus Resort Manor 1 hotel, Jean sat comfortably on the roof, holding a cigarette in one hand and pressing one hand on his left knee, looking to the northwest, when Ran Zai yawned at the entrance to the rooftop behind him.
"Are you really not going to go, Mr. Jean, that's ........"
"Can you tell me why you helped Lewen back then?"
Ran Zai scratched his head and sat down.
"Good people are rewarded, Mr. Jean, I often wonder what would have happened if I had chosen to turn a blind eye?"
"Lewen is probably dead or controlled by the rioters, or maybe he is still in an underground prison."
Ran Zai snorted.
"Remember when I hid from you on the street after my grandfather was arrested?"
Jean nodded.
"Why run away?"
Ran Zaiye asked with a smile.
"Why can't you run away?"
"Did you find a way out?"
Ran Zai nodded.
"I remember it was a little cold that day, I was cold and hungry, I had been hungry for a long time, I was thinking that such a meaningless life, it would be better to end it as soon as possible, after all, no one stopped on the street, after all, this world is like this, but maybe it was the instinct to survive that I didn't want to find a place to die silently, I only remember that the uncle put down a jar of liquid food at that time, and said that the only thing that could help me was this meal, if I was full and strong, I would go to the nearby orphanage to see, The dean over there is a good guy. ”
Jean smiled and exhaled a puff of smoke.
"Is it really just because of this?"
"Mr. Jean, many things in this world are so inadvertent, immersed in the dark for too long, as long as there is a glimmer of light, no matter who wants to catch it, aren't you the same!"
Jean stood up, a breeze blowing violently, he tilted his head slightly, and the golden sunlight hit the side of his face.
"Would you like seafood for breakfast?"
"Nope! It's better to eat liquid food. ”
As he spoke, Ran Jae took out two cans of liquid food from his pocket and threw them to Jean, who caught them, and the two opened the jars and began to eat.
