"Asshole, who are you, why are you sitting in my seat, looking at me..."
When I walked into my office study, I saw an unknown guy inside, casually looking through the documents in the study.
Qi Wu Xuanzong was stunned at first, and then his anger welled up. But before he could finish his words of rebuke, he was stuck to the wall by a ball of black mud thrown towards him.
"Qi Wu Xuanzong, the noble son of the Qi Wu family, when he was young, he was an ambitious young man who fantasized about becoming a great name in ancient times...
During the great catastrophe, he led the people of Osaka through the time when gasterozoans were raging everywhere...
Later, it was discovered that the country's society was divided into regions and could not be unified, which gave birth to ambition..."
"You opened my safe, took the diary inside, and read the contents?!"
Qi Wu Xuanzong's eyes widened, and regardless of his own situation, his hand that was not stuck in the black mud of evil thoughts pointed tremblingly at the person sitting in the study room.
"You, shameless person!"
“It’s rare these days that people can write diaries, and it’s even rarer that they dare to write the truth in their diaries.
However, you should be glad that you have the habit of keeping a diary, otherwise the bad thoughts in the past will not just stick you to the wall. "
Wu Ke put down the administrative documents from the Osaka area in his hand and looked at Qi Wu Xuanzong who was stuck on the wall.
"Let's talk?"
Qi Wu Xuanzong was a politician after all, and he calmed down quickly.
"who are you?"
"I am the supporter behind the Tokyo Security Saint. You can call me SD. My information should have been sent to you by your intelligence officers lurking in Tokyo, but it was just treated as false intelligence by you."
Wu Ke introduced his position.
"I have never received any information from SD, but if you are really someone sent from Tokyo District, you are now sneaking into my study here to steal Osaka's confidential information, and you also took me, the top official in Osaka District. The leaders were restrained, but this was an act that would cause conflicts and disputes between the two places..."
Qi Wu Xuanzong said righteously, actually trying to persuade Wu Ke to be kind.
"Now, you let me go and arrest you yourself. After I confirm your identity, you are in Osaka and Tokyo. Now that we have established a close relationship, I will not blame you for your actions."
Just when Wu Ke was about to say something, he heard Qi Wu Xuanzong continue: "Don't even think about threatening my life. I, Qi Wu Xuanzong, have been assassinated no less than thirty times in my life. If I were a person who was afraid of death, I would If others had compromised, they wouldn’t have been assassinated so many times.”
"Is there a possibility that the reason why you have been assassinated so many times is because you imposed heavy taxes on the area you manage, which makes it difficult for many people to survive, so those people will rise up and continue to assassinate you as the administrator of the area. From the political leader of the country?”
Qi Wu Xuanzong: "..."
"It doesn't matter if you don't answer. Judging from your appearance, I think you know why you were assassinated so many times."
"Are you a member of the resistance organization? Humph, you resistance organizations are all a bunch of ignorant guys. They don't know about taxes at all. They are all for the good of Osaka. When the government has money, it can expand its army and protect it better. People’s safety!”
“But if heavy taxes make it unbearable for people to live, what should we do?”
"Impossible. Although the three taxes and one tax will make people's lives harder, as long as the mainstay of the family works hard, ordinary families can definitely maintain their lives.
If you can't survive, there is only one reason, that is, some people don't work hard. And after the disaster, when social resources are in short supply, how can people who don't work hard have food? ! "
"This makes some sense, but have you ever thought that in reality, ordinary families will inevitably have headaches and fever?
With three taxes and one tax, according to the current prices in Osaka, it is already very hard just to maintain the life of an ordinary family. Ordinary families cannot afford to see a doctor at all. Once someone gets sick, they can only fight hard.
If unfortunately the person who is the breadwinner and the breadwinner of the family gets sick, and has no money to treat the disease, he can only fight hard, and even drag his sick body to work, so that small lesions can become serious, and serious diseases can be fatal. situation occurs.
In fact, I have many such examples on my hands. In the Osaka area resistance organization you mentioned, most of the members changed because they lost the backbone of their family and the family really couldn't survive. Becoming a rebel.
In addition, people named Qi Wu, or some of your family's descendants and relatives, are secretly raising taxes behind your back and desperately trying to make money for themselves.
I think as a political leader in a region, he shouldn’t be completely ignorant of these things, right? "
Qi Wu Xuanzong didn't say anything. He knew these things clearly, but he didn't care about the situation of the lower class people in Osaka area who were living in dire straits.
After all, if he cares about it, it will hurt his own financial wallet. Eighty percent of the Osaka regional government's finances come from heavy private taxes.
To realize his ambition, a wealthy Osaka regional government is very necessary.
In addition, Qi Wu Xuanzong knew that when the water was clear, there would be no fish, so he turned a blind eye to the fact that his relatives who had accepted their fate in important positions were making money for themselves in private.
As long as it doesn't go too far, just ignore it.
These beneficiaries were the most loyal supporters of the Osaka regime he led. Through them, Qi Wu Xuanzong firmly controlled the middle and high-level military forces to suppress rebellions or uprisings that often occurred among the people.
"Who are you?"
Qi Wu Xuanzong asked again.
He found that the person who sneaked into his study talked to him about very subtle topics.
It doesn't look like he's an agent or a member of a civil resistance organization at all.
Agents will be more professional and will not ask unnecessary questions that have nothing to do with their own goals.
As for the members of the civil resistance organization, their attitude will be more agitated and they will not discuss these matters calmly with him at all.
"Didn't I say it, SD, if you want to be specific, it is a messenger of justice who came to this world."
Qi Wu Xuanzong: "..."
I feel like there might be something wrong with this person's brain.
"Forget it, no matter who you are and what your identity is, there is not much time for you to think about it now. Before coming here, I asked my guards to prepare breakfast for me. If you come to the study when he comes, If you don't let me go before this point, you will be doomed."
Qi Wu Xuanzong said.
"Your guards?"
Wu Ke was a little confused.
"I always have more than a thousand guards by my side. Although they were somewhat useless this time and did not even notice you as an intruder, their combat effectiveness is unquestionable."
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you and leave now?"
"If you kill me, then you will be chased to death by the guards who discovered my body. But if you don't kill me, I will swear by the name of Qi Wu, even if you are unfortunately caught and fall into my hands later. , I will also forgive your sins as a reward for your current kindness of not killing."
"Didn't you just say that you are not afraid of death?"
Wu Ke asked curiously.
"A true man should remain useful in the world, and with many friends and many paths, I think you will make the best choice for yourself."
Qi Wu Xuanzong said.
"Do you think there is such a possibility that I have actually taken control of this place, and the guards you just saw and ordered to arrange your breakfast are actually not your guards but my people, just pretending to be You didn't recognize the person who killed you, or was he mistakenly recognized by you?"
Wu Ke asked.
"Impossible. This is Nagoya, the base camp of my Qiwu Xuanzong. It may be possible for one or two spies to sneak in, but you said that changing my guards here is absolutely impossible, unless the entire Osaka area is It’s captured!”
Qi Wu Xuanzong said confidently.
"Pap~"
At this moment, the study door opened.
The guard who had been ordered to prepare breakfast stood at the door with a plate.
"Guards, sound the alarm quickly and subdue this man!"
Qi Wu Xuanzong was overjoyed and immediately shouted to the guard standing at the door.
"Uh, sorry, Mr. SD, I seem to have forgotten to knock on the door."
However, the guard's words made Qi Wu Xuanzong feel cold in his heart.
"It's okay, what's the matter?"
Wu Ke asked, looking at the plate in the other person's hand, which contained a bowl of noodles that looked very rich.
"This guy asked me to prepare breakfast. I thought you might need a breakfast, so I went to the kitchen and ordered it. This is tomato beef noodles. I hope you like it."
The guard said quickly.
"Thanks."
Taking the beef noodles, Wu Ke thanked the soldiers pretending to be guards here.
He picked up the chopsticks and took a sip, chewing and looking at the man on the wall.
"What did you just say, unless the Osaka area fell? It's amazing. What happened just last night was actually guessed by you!"
Wu Ke sighed.
"You're lying to me, there are people in Osaka..."
"Are there eight armies? They are in Tennoji, Moriguchi City, Higashi Osaka District, Senboku County..."
Wu Ke was like reporting the names of dishes, accurately reporting eight places where the main army was stationed.
At the same time, some cities with small military garrison are also attached.
“These are the only places where I led my team to deal with the troops last night.
As for whether any fish slipped through the net, I don't know.
If possible, please check and fill in the gaps for me. "
Qi Wu Xuanzong's mentality was a bit explosive. Although he didn't know the truth or lies in the words of the guy who was eating noodles in front of him, he was indeed panicked.
"Don't panic. No matter how panicked, it won't change the fact that you have been captured. As for what to do with you, I have an idea in my mind after reading the administrative documents you have here and having some communication with you.
When we return to the Tokyo safety zone, I will ask Emperor Sheng to order you to be handed over to the people here in Osaka.
There is a saying that justice is in the heart of the people. Since you always feel that you are doing it for the good of the people, then you should let your people understand the meaning of your policies over the years.
If they are willing to forgive you, then no one can take your life, not even the Holy Emperor of the Tokyo Safety Zone, I say this. "
Wu Ke made a splash.
After finishing the noodles and only two mouthfuls of soup, a gurgling sound suddenly sounded. It was Qi Wu Xuanzong's stomach growling.
Wu Ke stopped, looked at the people on the wall, then looked at the two mouthfuls of soup in his bowl, and then asked: "Do you want to drink it?"
"You let me drink the leftover soup?"
Qi Wu Xuanzong, who was in a bad mood, glared.
"It's good to have leftover soup. This depends on the fact that the people at the bottom of the Osaka area occasionally drink leftover soup and can barely survive."
Wu Ke swayed the soup in the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
"However, since you don't want to, let it go. I'd like to let you experience what it feels like for those people in Osaka who don't even have soup to drink and can no longer survive.
Before you are handed over to face the judgment of the people here, you will not be given any food except water to keep you satisfied.
The timing of the public trial will depend on how quickly the Tokyo Security Zone takes over the management of the Osaka area.
However, if you are willing to actively cooperate, it can be done in two to three days! "
After a pause, Wu Ke asked: "Do you want to cooperate?"
"Don't even think about it. Even if I starve to death, I will never bow down to my enemy!"
Qi Wu Xuanzong said with great momentum.
"Well, good luck to you!"
Wu Ke recognized this man's toughness and had him taken out and imprisoned.
When it was time to go to work in the morning, when Qi Wuze arrived, he was just like everyone else, with a confused look on his face. He was immediately caught by the replaced guard after entering the door.
[We and Mr. SD together are really strong! 】
This is the true thought of most of the action personnel who participated in last night's operation and worked on the aftermath.
The complete fall of the Osaka Safety Zone caused a large number of subsequent aftermath personnel to be transported here from the Tokyo Safety Zone by boat.
The busy handover work begins, and it is necessary to review the quality of Osaka's administrative staff to see if they can stay and continue to use it.
As for those who usually use their power to do evil, they will be taken to prison so that they can be sent to the Osaka District People's Tribunal to be judged by the local people.
The social chaos that was expected did not occur at all. People in the Osaka area almost stopped beating gongs and drums when they suddenly learned on TV that they no longer had to pay the heavy taxes of three taxes and two (wartime).
He was so happy that he even spontaneously came out on the street, waving his homemade chess pieces to welcome the arrival of the master of the Tokyo Safety Zone.
As for the implementation of the loose new policy and the incidental implementation of the new gastrula law, the people in the Osaka area did not even have any opinions, not to mention resistance, and things went smoothly beyond belief.
“Without a mass base, people will only rejoice and not create chaos after the people above are overthrown.
However, there were some slippery fish and careerists hiding behind the scenes who were not found and caught immediately.
Those guys wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble, but they were quickly reported by sensible people, and the justice team didn't spend much effort in arresting those guys..."
The situation in Osaka made Seitenzi, who was in the safe zone of Tokyo, really feel the weakness of an unfair regime.
"You have to take this as a warning!"
Wu Ke advised her to be kind in the future, and Sheng Tianzi nodded in agreement.
. . . .
"Please, I'm willing to cooperate. Give me a bowl of rice, even if it's leftovers..."
"There's no leftovers, do you want shit?"
In a certain prison, the above conversation took place between a tough politician and a Tianshui prison guard.
