Lavinia: This Is Unreasonable! / The Two Wolves' Late-Night Dormitory Chat
The Miss Doctor felt a little uneasy. If she could just make me a little tired, it would make you feel guilty, and maybe then there would be an opportunity.
Unfortunately, Master Huang is a top-tier semi-perfectionist. Being friends with him is incredibly comfortable; he can basically solve every problem that needs solving.
Around 10:00 AM, Rhodes Island successfully connected to Siracusa's capital city Mobile City.
The women didn't want to participate in this kind of occasion, so they either stayed in Master Huang's room sleeping or watched the live broadcast.
Therefore, only Huang Cao and the Doctor were in charge of diplomatic matters at the scene.
The visit was less a friendly one and more a unilateral inspection of Siracusa's development by Utopia.
All the family representatives had arrived, which surprised even Madame Sicily.
These old guys are usually terrified of Huang Cao, so why are they suddenly so enthusiastic?
In reality, they had no choice but to come.
Because if they don't come, and Utopia really wants to wage war against Siracusa later, those who come today might have a chance to be accepted, while those who don't come might be crushed to dust.
With the Utopia fleet no longer visible in the distance, the heads of the various families felt somewhat relieved.
The wolf cubs were thinking: Even if we go all out, Master Huang can't possibly kill us all before he gets tired of hacking us to pieces!
Is that really true? Don't try to fool me!
In short, after much internal struggle, the heads of each family unanimously chose to grant them an audience.
Huang Cao looked at the various family heads, who were like his younger brothers, and then glanced at the Miss Doctor.
The Miss Doctor found several familiar faces from the storyline inside, and thought to herself that apart from those few with relatively good reputations, she would kill all the others.
Go back and promote Lappland, then put her father under her command, and, of course, make sure to call it "labor reform."
This scene must be very heartwarming, showing both fatherly love and filial piety.
As for the family Chizui... let's gather evidence first.
If the public opinion is still good, they can be dealt with accordingly; otherwise, probably not many of them will be easy to deal with.
However, apart from that, the Siracusa family head's lineage must be completely eradicated, as blood ties are one of the bonds that connect families.
After some thought, Miss Doctor followed in Master Huang's footsteps and, under the protection of a group of Abundance Warrior, arrived at the center of Siracusa.
She hadn't walked more than a few steps when she dismissed the Abundance Warrior.
Although she is physically weak, she is still a formidable opponent. Having regained access to Originium from the Cyber Ghost, she can easily turn Siracusa into ruins.
The air was filled with Originium; there was no way anyone could escape.
Surrounded by a crowd, the two arrived at a luxurious diplomatic hotel to rest and prepare for the afternoon's business.
In the hotel lobby, facing everyone's gaze, Huang Cao addressed them:
"This afternoon's meeting only requires Madame Sicily to speak with me. None of you are qualified to talk to me, so don't stand here in my way."
The ultimate form of power!
Gangs are inherently forces that bully the weak and fear the strong, especially the gangs in Siracusa, who mostly rely on exploiting ordinary people to maintain their current extravagant lifestyles.
Huang Cao has a mountain of evidence against him, so there's absolutely no need for him to give these people a friendly look.
The heads of the various families dared not speak out in anger and could only leave with their heads down, including Lappland's father.
As it turned out, even when faced with Master Huang's authority, he had to keep a low profile and was nothing like the nonchalant person he had been on the phone a few hours earlier.
After all, he only killed a few hundred people at most, but the number of nobles who died at the hands of Master Huang was enough to fill an entire Mobile City.
After the bystanders left, Madame Sicily planned to visit again this afternoon.
As soon as Huang Cao and the Doctor went upstairs, they heard a rhythmic thud of footsteps behind them.
Turning their heads, they saw Juezui, her face flushed and a small patch of skin Chizui on her chest, following behind them.
Her thighs were still bare, and they looked very elastic; the maid's skirt only barely covered the upper part of her thighs.
Even a slight jump is enough to reveal the absolute territory (area of skin); any larger movement would likely result in a wardrobe malfunction.
Doctor:"?"
Huang Cao: "It's nothing unusual."
Master Huang wasn't interested in the Chief Justice, but Miss Doctor. seemed to have discovered some novel species.
Doctor: "Lavinia Falcone, what are you doing dressed like this?"
The woman blushed even more alluringly after being called by her real name and Chizui, Miss Doctor quickly took off her coat and draped it over her.
The three then went into the room together, and with Chizui's initiative in revealing his body measurements, the two also obtained them.
So Huang Cao sent his men to a nearby clothing store to buy a more conservative set of clothes.
After buying it, he ordered the Chizui to go to the restroom to change, his tone emphasizing righteousness.
Chapter 664 Lavinia: This is unreasonable!
After changing her clothes, the girl's blush finally subsided.
Lavinia looked at Master Huang, who was with Miss Doctor, and finally felt a huge weight lifted from her heart.
Just as I had imagined, this Utopia's Lord was not as fond of beautiful women as rumored.
Even the lady next to me, who was called Doctor, TOPS than herself.
Lavinia is a woman, and although she usually doesn't care about appearance, she still has to admit that the Miss Doctor is prettier than her.
Moreover, she was gentle and kind, yet also lively, making her infinitely better than a serious woman like myself.
In fact, she had already prepared herself to be offered up before she even arrived.
Because nobody really knows what the rumored Utopia's Lord is like; it's all just hearsay. Maybe he really is a lecher.
Lavinia believed that she would be willing to sacrifice herself for the peace of Siracusa, but thankfully that didn't happen.
"These wolf cubs are still resorting to such underhanded tactics at a time like this. I can give you a chance to apologize to me, Lavinia..."
"I will do my best to make amends to you later, please accept my verbal apology until then."
Lavinia lowered her head and admitted that her detention a year ago was wrong, even if it was a utopian act at the time, it did violate the laws of Siracusa at the time.
But might makes right.
Huang Cao has developed for so long not to be dictated by small countries. If it were to be bound by the laws of a mere small country now, wouldn't all its development have been in vain?
"Since you've admitted your mistake, I don't want to say anything more. As the lord of Utopia, I'll just tell you directly: in the next few days, many, many people in this country will die—a preliminary estimate of no less than fifty thousand."
Miss Doctor tugged at Master Huang's sleeve, "Not only that, if we want to make an example of someone and severely punish those who crossed the line, the number would probably reach around 70,000."
Lavinia gasped. "Why are there so many people? Even if it's just to make an example of someone, is it really necessary to have so many?"
Huang Cao: "That's all there is. My bottom line is an eye for an eye, and beyond that, it's compounded. If a criminal cuts off the hands and feet of ten innocent people, making their lives miserable and worse than death..."
"I ask you, is such a crime not punishable by death?"
The judge, with his head bowed, said, "But even a death sentence cannot change the victim's situation, because the victim is still alive. Therefore, only by making the criminal generate value can we make the victim feel as much as possible better. I know this may seem unreasonable, but this is the helplessness of reality."
The Doctor gently stroked Master Huang's black hair with both hands, and replied, "We've already thought this through. After the information of these victims is verified, Utopia will take charge of their upbringing, ensuring their living conditions and arranging suitable jobs."
"!"
Lavinia's eyes widened; she never expected the other person to say that.
"But this is entirely the responsibility that the perpetrator should bear; you have no obligation to..."
Huang Cao: "Of course I know, but more than that, I pursue the ultimate justice. I find that this world is always hesitant and timid, and its desire to control human nature seems to have reached a certain obsessive level."
"I want to create a world where kindness and justice can flow freely, so I've set very severe penalties for certain behaviors."
"The fact that criminals are caught relatively slowly is a problem of the country and the system. The police or relevant staff should be punished, but there is no doubt that criminals must be punished."
Huang Cao: "Utopia's science and technology are very advanced. For the people of Utopia, the cost of repairing limbs is only about one month's salary, and the repair time is just a few minutes."
While a purely productivity-based approach is certainly incorrect, the development of productivity can indeed solve many practical social problems.
Therefore, Huang Cao chose an extremely drastic method to ensure the safety of his people.
Lavinia: "If the number of criminals becomes too large, wouldn't the whole society have to pay the price?"
Huang Cao: "So here's the question: what exactly is causing the rising crime rate? That's the question those in power should be considering. I won't criticize other countries for not being able to do it due to productivity issues, but given my current circumstances, why should I choose a different approach?"
"I've always believed that there are always a few inherently bad people in this world, but the victims are innocent, and I have to be there to protect them."
Huang Cao: "Since you keep raising questions, I might as well tell you directly: the crime rate in Utopia isn't measured in percentages, but in numbers. Over the past few decades, the number of criminals has not exceeded ten, and the number sentenced to death is negligible. This isn't because of deliberate cover-ups, but simply because there aren't any."
Basically, they all made some silly mistakes; although some people were acting irrationally, they were quickly caught.
In Utopia, the belief in Master Huang is not something used to deceive the ignorant masses.
Miss Doctor sat down next to Ah Cao: "Since you're here today, I'll tell you the truth. Huang Cao and I didn't come here to discuss this with you. If it weren't for your sudden intrusion, the operation would probably have started the day after tomorrow."
Lavinia's appearance here was a complete accident; neither Miss Doctor nor Master Huang paid any attention to it.
To put it bluntly, it's already quite good that these two are even willing to talk to each other. If it weren't for the high level of affection between them in the story, Huang Cao wouldn't have bothered with this little wolf at all.
The Doctor looked at Huang Cao excitedly. "Huang Cao, Lavinia just said she would compensate you, can you give me this compensation?"
Huang Cao nodded; he didn't need the little wolf's help.
After the new city is established, she can continue to take the exam to become a judge if she wants, but if she fails, Master Huang won't help her.
Even when protecting one's own, there are principles. First, the operator must not hinder the development of one's utopia, nor should they disgust oneself.
For example, the Siracusa Twin Wolves, Lappland and Texas.
These two were not only young ladies from wealthy families, but also top-tier assassins. However, even when their families assigned them missions to interfere with Utopia's development in Siracusa, they never accepted them.
Why? It's not because they're afraid of death, but because they don't want to willingly throw their lives away.
That's why Master Huang was so generous to the two of them, and even to the family behind Lappland, treating them like two little pets in his cage, provided, of course, that they wouldn't breathe on him.
"Alright, I'll give you this apology."
"Ah Cao, you're amazing!"
Chapter 665 The Twin Wolves' Dormitory Night Talk
The Doctor looked at Lavinia and made a gesture like rubbing his hands together like a fly. Lavinia immediately sensed something was wrong, but dared not resist.
"Ah Cao is indeed not interested in you, but I'm not as easy to talk to as him. What goes around comes around~ Just wait until I squeeze every last drop of value out of you!"
The Doctor stared intently at the wolf cub before him, his eyes devoid of lust, filled only with a curious exploration, and tinged with a mischievous, wicked playfulness.
Miss Doctor is only interested in Master Huang, but that doesn't mean he didn't have some mischievous thoughts when they were playing games together.
Lavinia turned her head away somewhat embarrassed, with a feeling that something terrible was about to happen.
Liking something and being curious are two different things. Miss Doctor has always been very enthusiastic about playing pranks on serious people, regardless of gender.
Especially the very serious Supreme Court Justice in the storyline; he's a truly upright and respectable person.
"Since you've already been sent here, you might as well come to the island with me obediently and sign this three-year employment contract in a few days."
"Work as my secretary for a while; you're a valuable workforce anyway," the Miss Doctor said.
Huang Cao: "Watch your face, and remember to pay wages."
Lavinia breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems I was overthinking it again. I believe Mr. Huang is a great leader, and this young lady... also has her own unique style."
That was a very high EQ statement. Just a moment ago, the Doctor had a wicked look on his face, but then he suddenly became so normal, which was truly beyond the judge's expectations.
I originally thought that the Miss Doctor would punish me in a deeper way, thus causing me to fall into depravity.
There's a joke in Siracusa: Just because I don't kill you doesn't mean my men won't.
But the other person was just a bit quirky; they hadn't done anything overtly annoying, though she didn't really have the right to argue with that.
Forget about the so-called illegal work at Rhodes Island; under absolute power, it's not impossible for her to take off her clothes and dance.
Perhaps this is what they mean by power being in the hands of civilization. I can't argue with that; this is true civilization.
As the most righteous judge in the eyes of the people of Siracusa, Lavinia has witnessed far too much evil within families.
I know that some people appear glamorous on the surface, but are actually more evil than anyone else.
You can't see into someone's heart; only after spending a long time with them can you know whether they are truly sincere or not.
