Who Says a Loyal Minister Can't Build Up His Own Army? (Continued)
"What would you like to say about your actions in rescuing these business representatives?"
As is widely known.
It was Director Swire who stopped the armed petitioning by the Reunion Movement.
It was also Chief Swire who rescued the surviving company representative from the bloodthirsty Superintendent Chan.
Without Director Swire, Lungmen would have become a living hell by now.
People love heroes like this who turn the tide.
Moreover, Governor Wei is now quite old and there is no one to succeed him.
Need I say more about who will be the future governor of Lungmen?
This rising political star will eventually become the Governor of Lungmen.
Everyone in Lungmen stared intently at Swire.
Under the flash of the camera, her golden hair shimmered with the light, and Luo Chen said solemnly:
"This is what I should do. It is my bounden duty to rescue these outstanding economic talents for Lungmen."
"It's just that I'm outnumbered and outmatched, and I haven't done a good enough job."
"Although I saved most of the people, some people lost their lives here."
"They are all living, breathing human beings, not just numbers."
Tears welled in Luo Chen's eyes, filled with deep sorrow.
As soon as Luo Chen spoke, all the media personnel rushed to thrust their microphones forward.
Only Talulah, watching Luo Chen from afar, felt her conscience tormented, and her lips twitched.
He was the one who let Chen Huijie in to kill, and now he's the one who acts like a savior.
This guy made all the money and is now crying for the victims.
Are you going to make the victim thank you later?
And you're hyping it up like this.
I!
Talulah herself.
Even if they are still alive, they are truly dead.
From then on, everyone in the world knew that Talulah was dead.
Even if I, the real Talulah, show my true face in the future, I will still be seen as an imposter.
Luo Chen:
"If it weren't for the fact that everyone in the Reunion Movement put aside their past grievances, I wouldn't have been able to save even these people."
"You should know that the Reunion Movement lost a leader not long ago, and Talulah's body is still warm."
"How virtuous and kind they were to rescue their enemy at this time!"
Upon hearing this, the business representatives who hadn't yet left couldn't hold back any longer.
The Reunion Movement took this opportunity to extort a huge sum of money from them. Should they thank them?
You should just shut up.
Stop with the moral blackmail.
"Many of you probably saw that bloody massacre. Our business elites from Lungmen were chased and killed by people with their bare hands."
"Some had their heads blown off, some had their arms broken, and some were torn in half."
"They should all have ended up like this..."
Luo Chen looked gravely at the location of the group of merchants:
"It was the Reunion Movement that acted bravely, repaying evil with good, and saving them for the sake of fairness, justice, love, and harmony."
"I believe the true heroes are the members of the Reunion Movement."
"We should all be grateful for the intervention of the Reunion Movement."
"Gentlemen, don't you agree?"
The businessmen who were asked dared not speak, nor dared they express anger.
He could only force a smile and agree:
"I must thank the Reunion Movement for saving my life."
"The Reunion Movement are the moral exemplars of Lungmen; with them, Lungmen will be even greater."
"We will not forget the contributions of the Reunion Movement, and we are willing to cooperate with the Reunion Movement for mutual benefit."
Long live the Reunion Movement!
Luo Chen raised his hand to signal them to be quiet, then continued talking nonsense:
"The Reunion Movement has demonstrated professionalism and excellence over the past period, not only saving Lungmen but also striking down all the evil elements within Lungmen."
"To prevent the Lungmen Guard Department from having another commander like Superintendent Chen who acts arbitrarily and tyrannically."
"I will make a decision on behalf of Governor Wei: to officially recognize the Reunion Movement and formally reorganize it into the administrative and law enforcement force of Lungmen."
"In order to hone the joint enforcement capabilities of the Reunion Movement and the Lungmen Guard Department, we plan to conduct Rectification Campaign in a week."
"The Reunion Movement and the Lungmen Guard Department conduct a thorough cleanup of all lawbreakers in Lungmen Lower City."
"From this day forward, Lungmen will be the fairest, most beautiful, and most just city-state on this land."
"Everyone can live and work in peace and contentment in Lungmen, without worrying about encountering thieves or robbers, or being caught in the crossfire of gang fights."
"They will certainly not be falsely accused."
"All people are equal under the rule of law."
"I, Swire, hereby swear that anyone who violates the laws of Lungmen is our enemy."
"Only fairness and justice exist at Lungmen."
Inspired, members of the Reunion Movement who were watching nearby, as well as citizens on the streets of Lungmen, joined in the chanting:
"Long live justice!"
"Long live fairness!"
Looking at the public opinion and sentiment that Luo Chen had stirred up with just a few words.
Talulah had to admit that even Koschei was no match for Luo Chen when it came to stirring up public opinion and creating momentum.
After the interview, Luo Chen, on behalf of Swire, confronted Wei Yenwu.
Inside the Governor's Office.
The Director of the Lungmen Guard Department is nominally a head below Wei Yenwu, but Luo Chen is currently sitting in Wei Yenwu's seat.
In contrast, Wei Yenwu sat to one side with a worried expression.
"Governor Wei, you wouldn't want Chen Huijie to be hanged in front of the whole world, would you?"
Luo Chen didn't waste any words and immediately threatened to kill Chen Huijie.
Chen Huijie committed a massacre in front of the entire world; this crime cannot be ignored.
Whoever dares to protect her will have to bear all the negative consequences of this incident.
The Yan behind Wei Yenwu would certainly not take the blame for something so morally reprehensible.
If Lord Wei wants to take the blame, then he should take it himself; it has nothing to do with the Great Yan.
"Just tell me straight, what exactly do you want?"
Wei Yenwu looked as if he had aged a hundred years, and he had no energy or spirit at all.
Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry.
Wei Yenwu's only remaining offspring is currently in Swire's hands.
For Chen Huijie's life, he had no choice but to endure it.
The power to decide how to deal with Chen Huijie now rests with Swire. If Swire wants Chen Huijie dead, then she must die.
She can only live if you want her to give birth.
"I heard from a pink-haired woman named Ms. Lin, who wished to remain anonymous, that Governor Wei Yenwu has a secret unit composed of top-notch experts under his command."
"This unit is normally responsible for monitoring, supervising, and guarding the security of Lungmen."
"They kept no records, and only a handful of people knew of the existence of this unit."
"I'd like to ask Governor Wei, is this news true?"
Wei Yenwu's eyes widened suddenly. "Lin Yuxia has also sided with you?"
Swire and Lin Yuxia were clearly under Wei Yenwu's supervision.
Until yesterday, the Shadow Guard were still reporting to Wei Yenwu that Swire had been lying at home watching TV.
But Swire was watching TV and scrolling through her phone when she accidentally went viral.
Wei Yenwu was completely unaware of their plan to betray him before he joined the fray.
One is the head of the Lungmen underground forces, and the other is a high-ranking leader of the Lungmen Guard Department.
Logically speaking, if these two wanted to seize actual control of Lungmen, they certainly couldn't bypass his surveillance.
But they did it.
Are young people these days really that terrifying?
Wei Yenwu inwardly sighed at how other people's children were doing, but his expression turned cold:
"You're eyeing my Shadow Guard? Even if I dared to put them under your command, they might not obey you."
"Aren't you afraid that one day they'll twist your head off?"
Wei Yenwu was not threatening the other party; he was simply stating a fact.
These Shadow Guard had followed him for decades and had long since become his brothers.
In this situation, the troops no longer had any real command authority; they were all Wei Yenwu's private soldiers.
Wei Yenwu's words were more effective than the imperial edict of the Yan.
Swire dared to take someone else's private army? Wasn't he afraid of being stabbed in the sleep one day?
"You've misunderstood, Governor Wei," Luo Chen shook his head, speaking with righteous indignation.
"Why would I want your secret force? That's your trump card."
There's an old saying in the Yan: "Leave a way out for others, so you can meet again in the future."
"If I wanted even your trump cards, wouldn't that be pushing you to the brink of despair?"
"You might dare to think of such a despicable thing, but I could never do it."
Wei Yenwu, who had been inexplicably stepped on, felt that Swire was a shameless little beast.
She usually looks like an adorable, slightly silly, innocent, and proud little girl.
After cutting it open, it turned out to be such a shameless scoundrel.
You framed and manipulated Chen Huijie, seized power from the Lungmen Guard Department, and undermined the Governor's Office.
Now you're turning around and teaching him to leave room for maneuver?
That's funny, it really is.
"Then why are you bringing this up? What do you want to achieve?" Wei Yenwu asked.
Luo Chen's Reunion Movement is developing rapidly.
However, the Reunion Movement was made up of a bunch of peasants who were only I Love Inventing at fighting and inventing things.
However, they are completely unable to perform high-tech tasks such as intelligence gathering, infiltration, and assassination.
For example, Lieutenant Colonel Bashar in Chernobog; if I could plant a few spies around him...
