The Bizarre Adventure of Pirates

"Don't worry, there's plenty of food here."

Jon chewed vigorously, his cheeks bulging.

Poor in literature and rich in martial arts.

If the body has no energy, even Ripple Qigong cannot be practiced successfully.

Just food supplements will do the trick.

Charles looked a little unhappy when he saw Jon ignoring him.

However, he still suppressed his emotions well and said, “City Lord Morgan has no time to summon you these days.

Because he is considering the next city lord candidate."

Hearing this, Jon paused.

Think for a few seconds.

He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, "It's not considered, but it has been determined."

Charles' pupils shrank sharply. "What's wrong with you?"

"Is there any need to think about this, my Lord, isn't the situation obvious?

Mayor Morgan has decided on the next mayor.

And the next city lord is not you.

of course.

In your heart, the next city lord should be you.

So you want to take action and want to seek help from some external force.

So you thought of me, and of Dustman 4396 who was locked up in the correctional facility."

The situation is not difficult to guess, anyone with an IQ slightly above 100 can guess it.

Jon licked his fingers and stared at Charles as if he were another juicy steak.

"Tell me, what benefit can you give me?"

Charles crossed his fingers and placed them on the table. "Does this mean you're willing to help me?"

"Why not?" Jon leaned forward slightly. "That day, I met almost all the senior executives of the Lighthouse. After observation, I felt that only you are the most suitable for the position of Lighthouse Lord."

very eloquent!

All of Charles's dissatisfaction disappeared in an instant.

He had to admit that although he was a dustman with a genetic disadvantage, his knowledge was indeed unique to the Lighthouse and was much better than that of the confused old city lord!

"That's right, in that case, I won't hide it from you, I want to be the city lord.

4396, tell me what you think. "

ponder for a moment.

Jon asked, "Can I first know who Mayor Morgan has chosen as the next Mayor?"

"Wasteland Hunter Commander Mark." Charles said word by word.

"Him?" Jon shook his head. "That guy might be a good person and could be an excellent hunting captain, but he is not suitable to be a city lord. He is too naive and too weak."

Yeah!

This idea coincides with Charles's.

He found this dustman more and more pleasing to the eye.

Charles asked again: "Now, can you tell me what you think?"

"Of course it was a coup d'état to seize power."

Jon spoke without thinking, "If City Lord Morgan doesn't want you to succeed, why don't you force him to let you succeed? Anyway, you control the Light and Shadow Church and have great power.

Just kill Lord Morgan. Who on the lighthouse can stop you?"

So cruel!

But I like it~

Charles smiled slightly, "But have you ever thought about General Victor and Jingnan and others around City Lord Morgan?"

Before he could finish his words, Jon interrupted him.

“They are totally unworthy of concern.

Victor is a typical soldier who only listens to whoever is the boss.

Jingnan may be smart, but she has no ambition and cannot compete with you."

"Can you tell that I'm ambitious?" Charles showed an interested expression on his face.

"Your ambition is written all over your face, my Lord." Jon pursed his lips, "We can cooperate, but the premise is that you have to promise to help me improve the living conditions of the people after you become the city lord."

"this."

Charles thought for a few seconds and nodded, "No problem."

"Great, then it's a deal!" Jon raised his glass and gestured to Charles from a distance.

Seeing this, Charles also raised his glass to Jon.

"Pleasant to work with."

"Pleasant to work with."

Wait until Jon is brought back to the correctional facility.

Charles's face suddenly turned gloomy.

There was a long silence.

He sneered.

"When I become the city lord, the first person I will kill will be you, a smart-aleck fool!"

That's right.

He was going to use Jon.

Because he thought Jon was a smart guy, but not that smart.

He could easily kill the old city lord and then put the blame on this ordinary person.

Ha ha.

Dust people.

Let me ask, will the people believe the words of the common people, or will they believe the words of him as the head of the Church of Light and Shadow?

The answer is obvious.

In this way, the goal was achieved and someone to take the blame was found.

It can be said that killing two birds with one stone.

the other side.

The expression on Jon's face was similar to Charles'.

"That guy should be thinking about how to get rid of me."

Just as he said, Charles' ambition was almost written on his face, and only honest people like Mayor Morgan and Mark couldn't see it.

As a bystander, he could clearly capture the thoughts of the leader of the Church of Light and Shadow.

Stop it.

Cooperating with such people will only backfire on you in the end.

No.

'Cooperation' is not the right word.

They are just using each other.

A few more days passed.

Jon finally received a summons from City Lord Morgan.

Compared with the last time, the old man looked noticeably more pale.

"Lord City Lord." Jon greeted.

The word "adult" comes to him as casually as cats and dogs.

City Lord Morgan didn't care either.

"4396"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Jon interrupted the other person, "If you can, call me Jon or Qiao Qiao."

"You gave yourself a name?"

Jon asked back, "Isn't it possible?"

Mayor Morgan was silent for a long time and said, "Yes, you are qualified to give yourself a name.

Well, Jon, I have something I want to ask you."

Wow, you really treat me as a consultant.

Jon complained silently in his heart, but did not refuse, "Go ahead."

"You said that there are problems with the management of the Lighthouse system, especially the 'three major rules' I formulated, which are full of loopholes, right?"

"correct."

Jon nodded, "You will be finished sooner or later if you keep doing this. I won't repeat what I said before. Just destroy the family form and try to preserve the laws of nature while destroying human desires."

As he spoke, he gestured with his hands, "Hey, do you know a spring? The harder it is compressed, the greater the force of its rebound.

Not today or tomorrow, sooner or later the repressed emotions will explode!

Your tower, oh no, our tower, will be destroyed sooner or later."

Mayor Morgan was silent for a long time, "Maybe you are right.

But who knows?

I must ensure harmony and stability within the existing population!"

Note that he used the word "stability" rather than development, because in the current context, development has become a luxury, and being able to maintain the status quo is already a blessing.

The old man is very conservative, even too conservative.

Jon didn't want to discuss this issue with him in detail, so he changed the topic and said, "I heard that you chose Mark as the next city lord."

"You knew? Charles told you!" City Lord Morgan's eyes narrowed.

But he did not deny it.

"Captain Mark is not suitable to be the city lord. He is not smart enough." Jon said, "Why don't you change someone else?"

When will it be the turn of the dust people to interfere in the selection of the city lord's successor?

City Lord Morgan laughed angrily, "If he can't do it, who do you think can do it?"

"If Charles can do it, so can I." Jon said as a matter of course.

"Let's not talk about Charles for now. Why, do you want to be the city lord?" City Lord Morgan still smiled.

Jon affirmed: "If I were the city lord, I would at least be better than you."

The ignorant are fearless.

Mayor Morgan shook his head.

“Many situations are completely different from what you imagine, for example, why do you think I want people to suppress their emotions.

It is to avoid attracting the extreme beast!

Strong emotional conflicts will make the lighthouse exude unparalleled attraction like a firefly in the dark. "

Jon thought about it.
