"Mr. Mayor, do you want to carry out education reform?"
"Mr. Mayor, look here!"
As soon as Mayor Vent walked out of the exit, he was surrounded by a group of reporters, guarding him like stars over the moon.
But Mayor Vent just smiled and waved to these reporters, preparing to get into Municipal Government's special limousine.
"Mr. Mayor, please wait a moment," a voice suddenly shouted from the crowd, "I am the lawyer for your adopted son Allen."
Immediately afterwards, a silver-haired Old Man slowly pushed through the crowd and escorted a black-haired woman to the front row.
The entire place fell silent for an instant, and some reporters subconsciously pointed their cameras at the black-haired woman who suddenly appeared. They keenly smelled the smell of breaking news.
Igarie is indeed very photogenic. She has a delicate appearance and a tall figure. She holds her head high when speaking and is full of energy. Even if she is facing the mastermind who is actually chasing her, she is not timid at all when she needs to stand up and speak.
And He Ao was standing next to her at the moment, holding a wooden crutch with one hand, his face was as sharp as a knife, his expression was cold, and his gray eyes reflected indifference under his silver hair, just like the ancient earl standing at the top of the castle in the film and television works, overlooking life and death.
The two people stood here and suddenly became the center of the entire crowd, and everyone's eyes were focused on them.
"Mr. Mayor," Igarie watched the mayor continue to prepare to get in the car without responding to her, so he continued, "Do you know the news about Allen's disappearance?"
When the topic reaches this point, Vent can no longer go inside.
Allen's identity is very special.
Allen is the child of his main opponent when he first ran for mayor.
That election opponent died in a sudden attack by Exotic Beast.
He was nearby at the time and rushed to the scene as quickly as possible. He risked his life to save Allen, who was only four or five years old at the time. After Exotic Beast was killed, he immediately announced that he would adopt Allen as his adopted son.
This is what he wrote in his autobiography.
This incident became his huge political capital. Relying on his performance in the Exotic Beast attack, he won the support of the original supporters of Allen's father, and was elected as the mayor of Dawn City with an overwhelming majority of votes, and has been re-elected to this day.
The new mayoral election is coming soon, and any problems with Allen may affect his election.
He turned around and looked at Igarie and He Ao with a smile.
"Sorry, although I am not a very competent father, but I just had lunch with Allen this morning. I think it is unlikely that he suddenly 'disappeared'?"
Then he turned to look at the reporters, "Allen has been feeling unwell for the past two days and is resting. In two days there will be a charity fundraising dinner hosted by "Dawn Stray Children Education Foundation" at Nold Hotel. I will take little Allen with me to attend. Everyone is welcome to join us. Let us work together to change Dawn City."
"Mayor! Mayor!"
The supporters surrounding the crowd raised banners with the name Vent in their hands and cheered loudly.
Vent smiled and waved to his supporters, and then walked back to the car step by step.
Igarie found that her words were completely rejected, and the other party didn't seem to give her a chance to speak. She was a little panicked for a moment, and she looked up at He Ao.
But she found that Old Master beside her had disappeared at some point, just as she was frantically looking for him.
A deafening voice came from the school loudspeaker nearby,
"Mr. Mayor, the reason why we determined that Allen is missing,"
Igarie looked towards the outer layer, only to find He Ao standing at the exit, holding a miniature microphone in his hand. It was the microphone used by Vent for his speech. Just now, everyone's attention was focused on Vent, but no one at the venue of the speech noticed.
He Ao held the microphone and spoke slowly, word by word,
"It's because Allen hired us to help him investigate the incident where his father was attacked by Exotic Beast eight years ago. He believed that there was another hidden reason in this incident.
Just a few days ago, he sent us a message saying that he had found a key clue. After that, we were unable to contact him for several days.
From this, we thought he was missing, and we came to you because we thought you might be looking for him too, but now it seems that you are absolutely sure you know his whereabouts?
But we will not give up, we will continue to investigate, and in addition, we will also seek help from Federation. "
When He Ao finished speaking these words, the school security guard rushed towards him quickly. He Ao casually hung the microphone on the wall nearby and walked calmly to Igarie's side with a cane.
Then, with Igarie's confused eyes, he took Igarie's hand and walked out of the crowd.
The reporters reacted immediately, and they rushed to He Ao and Igarie like crazy.
"Excuse me, why did Allen entrust you to investigate the cause of death of his biological father?"
"Do you have any definite clues?"
"Excuse me, does the Exotic Beast attack that year have anything to do with the mayor?"
At the same time, a group of reporters also surrounded the mayor and asked similar questions.
"I got a message back. The school said Allen hasn't gone to school for four days."
While the mayor was responding hastily, an exclamation suddenly came from the crowd.
Immediately afterwards, he seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing and leaked important information, and immediately shut his mouth.
And his words poured another bucket of hot oil into the already heated and heated situation.
Igarie was at a loss and didn't know how to deal with these reporters, but He Ao didn't even think about dealing with them. He directly took Igarie's hand and got into a taxi parked on the side of the road.
This is the vehicle he has long praised as Bracelet.
"Master, go to Federal Bureau of Investigation Building and get rid of these reporters."
"Okay."
The master responded excitedly, started the vehicle, and stepped on the accelerator, frightening some reporters who wanted to block the road back.
Dawn City has two types of taxis, driverless and driver-driven.
Driver-driven taxis are more expensive, but the advantage is that you can make some additional requests.
For example, in the current situation, if it is a driverless taxi, it will start slowly in accordance with traffic rules and can easily be blocked by reporters, while the driver can rush out by pressing the accelerator.
"Old Master..." Igarie felt her head was a little dizzy. She was pulled into the taxi by He Ao before she could react. But she was slowly coming back to her senses at this moment. She dubiously guessed, "Allen is in the hands of the mayor?"
"Yeah."
He Ao nodded lightly. The mayor firmly insisted that he had breakfast with Allen, and confidently stated that he could take Allen to the charity dinner. This proved that he had great confidence in controlling Allen's whereabouts.
In addition, Najia's people came directly to kill Igarie, with no intention of leaving anyone alive.
Combining the two clues, it is actually easy to deduce the conclusion that Allen was probably controlled by the mayor from the beginning.
If Allen is still outside now, according to Najia's character, Igarie will definitely be left alive, and he will find a way to lure out Allen or torture him to find out the whereabouts of Allen, instead of just coming up with a killer move.
Of course, finding out the whereabouts of Allen is only one purpose of this trip, and what He Ao wants to do is,
Lure the snake out of its hole.
