"rush."

"Senior Raimondo said charge!"

"Then charge!"

As Raymondo stared in amazement, a group of young researchers carried him and rushed to the office area where the senior executives of the Academy of Sciences were located.

Although the Academy of Sciences has not had time to rebuild after the explosion,

But the office area on the upper floors has been restored.

This is probably one of the reasons why grassroots researchers are dissatisfied.

...

In late September, less than a week after Wang Que arrived in Fontaine, a riot broke out at the Fontaine Academy of Sciences.

This resulted in a large amount of data loss and casualties, and the law enforcement court intervened.

Chapter 210 New Plan, Another Interview

Wang Que only received the news about the riot at the Academy of Sciences two days later.

Eight senior members of the Academy of Sciences were beaten into the hospital by a young researcher.

Raymondo was arrested by the Court of Enforcement for planning a riot, and more than thirty researchers were detained.

When Wang Que heard the news from Alechino, he looked at her with suspicion.

Didn't you say everything was under control? How did it suddenly become like this?

I'm here to recruit people, not to rescue people from Mello Petersburg. I don't have the nerve to do that in Fontainebleau.

Alechino was also somewhat helpless: "According to our plan, we were supposed to wait for the senior members of the Academy to suppress the young researchers. Once they were at their wit's end, we would extend an olive branch to you."

"In the end, we misjudged the situation. We didn't expect Raimondo to return to the Academy early, which gave the young researchers a sense of responsibility and triggered the riot early."

Raymondo went back early, causing a riot?

Wang Que's face turned dark. He really didn't expect such a chain reaction to occur.

In fact, the occurrence of this riot was a coincidence among many parties.

First, the Hearth House spread the news, provoking the relationship between the top leaders of the Academy of Sciences and ordinary researchers.

Then, the top management was worried about smuggling or something being exposed, so they interfered with the technical visit of the Liyue Technical Ambassador and refused to let Wang Que in. This attracted the attention of Navilette, causing a top management to take the blame.

They also excluded Raymondo, causing the lower-level researchers to be willing to believe Raymondo.

Secondly, Professor Carlord took the blame, which made the top leaders of the Academy of Sciences wary and began to clean up the criminal evidence, which in turn stimulated the grassroots researchers.

Finally, Raymondo got new inspiration from Wang Que and returned to the Academy of Sciences early, allowing the grassroots researchers to find a backbone and directly integrate their strength.

At this time, Raymondo's opinion was no longer important, and the voices from the bottom directly carried him forward.

So, one thing led to another, and riots naturally occurred.

"This is really not good news." Wang Que couldn't help but smiled bitterly.

A riot cannot be suppressed so easily.

There will certainly be more complex struggles involved.

Of course, the wry smile only lasted for a moment before Wang Que regained his fighting spirit and began to think:

"This isn't necessarily a bad thing for me. These rioting researchers are probably very disappointed with the Academy of Sciences now."

"If I can get in touch with him, I might as well dig him up."

For a businessman, it is an instinct to turn crisis into business opportunity and bad things into good things.

Although the riot disrupted the original recruitment plan,

But if you think about it carefully, it is not without benefits.

First of all, the contradiction between the top and bottom of the Academy of Sciences was directly exposed.

This is beneficial to Wang Que's idea of ​​recruiting researchers.

Alechino looked at Wang Que thinking and couldn't help but ask, "Are we still going to continue with our agreement?"

Wang Que answered subconsciously: "What agreement?"

After he finished speaking, he reacted: "Oh, yes, yes, one researcher has ten people, of course it counts."

Then he looked at Alechino with some curiosity: "But, this is already a riot, can you still intervene?"

Alechino crossed his legs. "Although there was a small incident, it's not completely out of control. Fontaine has its own procedures, and they will definitely launch an investigation into this riot."

"In the eyes of ordinary people, the top leaders of the Academy of Sciences are powerful and influential, and the investigation might be interfered with. At this time, if we lend a helping hand to those researchers..."

Alechino didn't finish speaking, but Wang Que already understood the general meaning.

However, Wang Que did not agree immediately.

If he were in Liyue, he could just go directly to Yan Fei at this time. She could solve all legal problems.

But this is Fontainebleau, and Wang Que has no legal consultant to consult here.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Que looked at Alechino: "How can I lend a hand? I don't have any foundation in Fontaine."

Alechino said directly, "Yesterday I arranged for someone to hand over the old factory data held by the Northland Bank. Among them was evidence that certain Academy of Sciences executives were colluding with the Northland Bank's white gloves to resell the old factory's production materials at low prices."

"The riot case is currently a hot topic. If this news gets out, you, as an envoy from Liyue who has pledged to help revive these old factories, can naturally intervene in this case."

"Those young researchers are very innocent. You don't need to contribute directly. Just publish some opinions in the newspaper, criticize those who caused the old factory to fall into trouble, and support the young and passionate researchers. They will naturally be fond of you."

Listening to Alechino's plan, Wang Que nodded slightly. This was indeed a good idea.

When a person is imprisoned, if someone speaks up for him, the good impression he has of him will naturally grow.

"That's a good idea, but how can we guarantee that these people won't be thrown into Melro Petersburg? I want people, not goodwill. If they are imprisoned, all my efforts will be in vain."

Wang Que raised another question.

Alechino smiled and said:

"Ever since that [Master of Strange Equipment] established the Academy of Sciences, it has become too autonomous, and even the Mo Mang Palace can't interfere."

"Intervening in the Academy of Sciences is what Mo Mang Palace has always hoped to do, and now is a good time."

"Furthermore, the reason those researchers rioted was due to high-level corruption. This is a fact."

"So, whether in public or private terms, these young people will not be guilty. The most likely result will be a fine."

"Especially once you intervene and speak up for them in public, and link the issue to the old factory, people's sympathy will unconsciously lean towards them."

"In this case, the probability of innocence is higher."

Wang Que's eyes lit up slightly, and his thoughts were completely clear.

"Okay, let's follow this plan."

……

the other side.

That Vielight Office,

The Supreme Judge also saw the reports submitted below.

"Northland Bank, White Gloves..."

There was a coldness in Villette's eyes.

"Someone from the Academy of Sciences is also involved. This is really a well-calculated plan."

His slender fingers slowly tightened around the report in his hand, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his office. Outside the window, dark clouds gathered and rain began to streak diagonally across the glass. The weather in Fontaineland truly reflected the surging emotions of the Supreme Inquisitor at the moment.

"Exploiting loopholes in bankruptcy liquidation, they embezzled state-owned assets through layers of white gloves."

His deep voice was filled with a thunderous sense of oppression, and a cold light flashed in his indigo pupils. "You've stretched your hand too far."

The rain suddenly exploded into spider-web-like water marks on the window glass, as if an invisible force was vibrating in the air.

When he turned around, the hem of his clothes rose in a sharp arc, and the evidence documents spread out on the desk were slightly curled by the breath of the water element.

The transaction records marked with red annotations, the material allocation orders of the Academy of Sciences, and the joint letter with fingerprints of factory workers were now displayed in front of his eyes like evidence in a court.

After a short silence.

"The Enforcement Court will establish a special investigation team tomorrow, and if necessary, it can collaborate with the Shadow Chasing Court on the investigation."

Navillatte spoke to the law enforcer who was waiting for his orders, each word as dangerous as an undercurrent beneath the ice.

"Start with the Academy of Sciences' Materials Department, investigate all officials who have handled the transfer of factory equipment—"

He pointed his fingertips at some of the circled names. The ink was still fresh, indicating that this was the latest research.

"All of them are suspended for review."

The rain outside the window suddenly intensified, and faint flashes of lightning were seen in the lead-gray clouds.

Navillet looked towards the ruins of the Academy of Sciences. The broken walls and ruins left by the explosion were faintly visible in the rain.

"It's time for a big purge."

He looked at the rain outside the window, which seemed to be washing away some filth.

"And flush it away along with the termites that are parasitic on the lifeblood of Fontaine."

After saying this, he looked at the attorney at the desk and said, "This will be a major operation. Submit a report to Ms. Funina. We need her support."

No matter what, Funina is the ruler of this country.

Even if the purge is just,

This also requires Funina's consent.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Supreme Inquisitor."

The law enforcement officer stood at attention, already foreseeing the coming storm.

He paused and continued, "Those three factories proposed giving Liyue 30% of its shares for free?"

Navril looked at him calmly and said, "Stop it. The ownership of these factories needs to be redefined."

The judge nodded quickly, "Yes, Your Honor."

……

In the afternoon.

Wang Que went to a cafe.

Of course he had something important to do when he went out.

I ordered two cups of coffee in the cafe and sat down quietly waiting.

Soon, the pink-haired girl hurried over.

"Sorry, sorry, Mr. Wang Que, there was an error in the manuscript earlier, and I was delayed for a while."

Charlotte apologized a little sheepishly.

Although it was Wang Que who took the initiative to ask her out this time, being late was still impolite.

Wang Que waved his hand: "It's okay, the scenery along the street is also very nice, I just happened to enjoy it for a while."

Charlotte stuck out her tongue, acting like a little girl, and then sat down.

"The last interview went really well. Our sales increased ten percent. The editor-in-chief was delighted to hear you took the initiative to contact me this time."

After the last interview with Wang Que was published,

The matter about the old factory instantly aroused heated discussion among a large number of Fontaine citizens.

Everyone has been here since childhood, and those old factories are the childhood that exists in their memories.

If no one mentions it, it will naturally be forgotten.

But now that it has been brought up by the Steambird Newspaper, even a foreign envoy has expressed optimism about it.

This touched many Fontaine citizens.
