Remnants Remain!_2 Killing two birds with one stone is basic; eating one fish three ways isn’t too much.
Just give them a bit of color and they dare to open a dye shop, seizing any opportunity to rise up.
“Ha, I hope you can help my brother, Domo.
My apologies for the trouble.”
Eris repeated his request from last time and then left slowly.
Could this be the final chapter for the dreamer from the West Coast?
“Ha, you look quite well, Mr.
Eris.”
Elder Li’s smile was like a blooming chrysanthemum, instantly bringing surprise to Eris’s expressionless face.
How did he get here?
Li Haiping watched the door to the reception room close slowly, put away his smile, and looked at Eris with deep and intense affection.
“Eris, he told me to tell you, he will give you one more chance, the last chance.”
So spoke the godfather of Saint Rodu.
Eris was momentarily lost for words; he felt he was once again about to sell his soul.
“Hmm?”
Li Haiping stood opposite Eris, looking down at this so-called “big shot” and expressed a questioning snort through his nose.
Hurry up and answer me!
Elder Li liked this kind of unruly grey life!
“What do I have to do?”
The West Coast dreamer asked with drooping brows, his soul sold so cheaply and so often that it was heartbreakingly routine.
“Set up a radical Left-Wing Party right in Saint Rodu, then pit it against the California Elephant Party.
This has always been your ideal, hasn’t it?
This time, we’ll help you establish a new faction directly.
How about it, surprised or not?”
Moderate left, center-left, extreme left, radical left, progressive left, left-wing nationalism…
Divide, keep dividing!
How can the California Elephant Party manage alone?
CEO Cheng wants to grasp with both hands, and both must be strong!
“Me?
Start a left-wing faction?
Are you joking?”
Eris couldn’t comprehend, unable to imagine a future mingling with a bunch of LGBT people, the thought of those brave souls gave him goosebumps—not that this was disrespectful.
“What do you think?”
Elder Li laughed and explained.
“We’ll contact voters through short video promotions combined with some offline events.
Money isn’t a problem; the key is for this radical Left-Wing faction to gain enough momentum.
Let me think, we’ll target Gasetti.”
Elder Li remembered what that man had said: ‘Can’t let him feel no pressure.
Saint Rodu’s Democratic Party leader is but a nominal title.
Break up the Saint Rodu Democratic Party, and he’s no longer the leader!’
Elder Li didn’t understand the high-level game CEO Cheng was playing, daring to fight with the mayor of Saint Rodu, but he certainly wasn’t going to be indecisive like Eris—Elder Li didn’t have the nerve.
Eris was an entrepreneur whose business had been acquired by CEO Cheng’s corporation; Elder Li was a dog that CEO Cheng had raised bit by bit.
He understood contentment far more than Eris did.
“…I understand.
Can I go now?”
Eris had no right to bargain anymore.
He even felt grateful that CEO Cheng had spared him this time.
This wave of LAPD’s action hit California like a deluge, and Eris knew, in the eyes of CEO Cheng and Chief Glu, he was no more significant than an expendable minor player like Karami.
Lucky for him, he was still useful.
“Wait, there will be a grand trial, after which you will be declared innocent.
Chief Glu will be dismissed, and then you can leave.”
A trial?
Eris was taken aback.
“We’ve just been arrested a few days ago.
Are you telling me that I have to wait here for a few months until the trial?”
Elder Li smiled mysteriously and said.
“The State Assembly will specially approve and follow special procedures to declare you innocent.
Who do you think won this fight, CEO Cheng or someone else?”
Eris couldn’t fathom it, but he was profoundly shaken.
The mess just got messier.
If the State Assembly declares them innocent using special procedures, then Glu is guilty.
So if Glu collaborated with CEO Cheng and Temir, doesn’t that mean they lost?
“I will always be loyal to CEO Cheng, Elder Li, stop testing me.”
Confined Eris had no foresight and could only respond in such a manner.
Loyalty!
Elder Li patted Eris’s shoulder with a laugh and sighed.
“If you had shown this kind of wisdom earlier, why would you have ended up here?”
————————
A few days later, the press conference was buzzing with activity as Chief Glu unemotionally read from his script.
No, he did show emotion, probably akin to someone who just lost his entire family.
“…all seventeen people, completely innocent, LAPD will immediately release them!”
It was like throwing a bomb into seething oil.
The reporters immediately asked.
“Glu, some say you’re Niu Sen’s dog, and the recent targeting of the opposition by Saint Rodu was Niu Sen’s order.
Is this news true?”
“Fake news!
Next!”
Glu kept the same expression, while the crowd of reporters was still surging.
“Some say you’re a corrupt officer, is that true?”
Not a few knew Glu was problematic, but few were as daring as this reporter.
Because Glu really was corrupt, so much that even the California Clique was chilled to the bone, so much that even the Great Commander didn’t want to tangle with…
“You know, this joke is really funny!”
Chief Glu forced a grin that wasn’t the least bit heartfelt, pretending to be amused by a joke.
“Then why would you deploy the LAPD to arrest members of the California Elephant Party under improper procedures?”
Of course, Chief Glu could easily handle such a minor question.
“LAPD has 15,000 officers.
I can’t possibly monitor each one of them every day.
So if they made a mistake, as the Chief of LAPD, I am willing to take responsibility!”
They made mistakes; I take responsibility—moving, isn’t it?
That’s the grandeur of LAPD’s Chief Glu!
“So, you have nothing to say to those wrongly arrested?”
The reporters didn’t believe Glu’s lies, but there were still naïve fools asking the question.
