Start with Planetary Governor

Chapter 31, Is this the governor?
Unbeknownst to Hodgson, one of their Union Council members, Vaughan, was a cultist.

He didn't have this information at all beforehand.

Now that Gu Hang told the truth, he was immediately dumbfounded.

When he came back to his senses, his first reaction was to suspect: Vaughan was a cult member, did the Governor make up his own nonsense, and use it as an excuse to trouble Fuxing City?

"This matter is not trivial. Do you have any evidence to prove it, Mr. Governor?"

"The evidence is solid. The person who attacked the convoy was instructed by Vaughan. I wiped out the gangsters in his manor and captured him. I saw this guy use the storm magic..."

"You seem to know nothing now, President Hodgson, I am very disappointed. A member of the alliance has been corrupted, and you, as the head of the assembly, have no information at all. Is this dereliction of duty, or the alliance itself Have you been conniving at the spread of cults in Fuxing City?"

Hodgson immediately denied: "Absolutely not! We have been strengthening the crackdown on cults, how could we allow the spread of cults? I will investigate this matter..."

Before Hodgson finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Hang: "Investigate? Wait for you to investigate slowly, what will Fuxing City look like? Even members of the parliament can be corrupted. How can I believe that you can find out anything? result?"

Hodgson was tortured by Gu Hang.

This completely unexpected news caught him off guard.He didn't make a relevant plan at all, so he could only bite the bullet and say at this time: "We will definitely take practical and effective measures to deal with this problem. Next, we will conduct background checks on all members of the council, and we will also strengthen the investigation of the entire city. The strength of the investigation of cults."

Gu Hangdao: "I will give you this chance. But I also want to remind you that our city is facing a serious threat, and I want you to solve this problem as soon as possible and thoroughly! If I can't see your more positive attitude, Then I will take action myself and hold you accountable for it."

Hodgson can only try to guarantee: "We will go all out and take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of the city. I assure you, we will give you an account."

"You better do what you say."

……

After hanging up the phone, Hodgson frowned tightly.

He didn't want to be on the weak side every time he communicated with the governor.

However, what can he do?

It was the first time I came to ask for supplies, and I asked for the allocation with the power of the governor. The amount was not small, but it was not unbearable, so they were stuck at the limit of Fuxing City's ability to pay, and they pinched their noses to admit it.No one is willing to completely offend and turn against the governor for this little material.

The second time was when Vaughan attacked the convoy without authorization. This was his act alone, and Hodgson sold him without any psychological pressure.

On those two occasions, the Governor vaguely expressed the intention of using authority and orbital bombing from the sky to exert extreme pressure and threats, with the purpose of wanting something.Speaking of this, as long as he doesn't want to turn his face, then Hodgson has nothing to do but compromise.

For the third time now, although the governor didn't make too many threats and didn't ask for anything, his tone was the most severe, directly accusing the Alliance Council of being either negligent or a traitor.

The handle of the conversation is straightforward.

But Hodgson couldn't refute.

This time the governor is standing on the commanding heights.

The Primordial Moonkin Sect is the public enemy of many forces in the wasteland. They don't believe in the God-Emperor, but instead believe in the so-called "Original Moonkin". They have mastered the sorcery of storms, and they have actually caused many tragedies that destroyed gathering places.

A coalition member turned out to be a member of this cult, how to explain it?

I can't explain it!
The governor's anger is well-founded.

I thought he had sold a grain merchant who was blinded by profit. If that guy wanted to fight against the governor, let him stand up as a target. He deserved his death.But this person turned out to be a member of a cult, which completely caught Hodgson by surprise.

He also realized the seriousness of the matter.

After hesitating for a while, the old Hodgson turned to look at his grandson Lambert, and asked, "The governor said that Vaughan is a cult member, do you think it is possible?"

"Maybe it's true, maybe it's false." Lambert Hodgson listened to the entire conversation between his grandfather and the governor, and he carefully gave the answer he thought, "but this matter is not critical now. Since the governor It means that he must have some evidence. Even if the evidence is not true, the governor must have forged it well enough. We are really passive now."

Regarding Lambert's guess, the old Hodgson sighed and continued to ask: "Then what do you think the governor will do next?"

Lambert thought about it: "He may use this as an excuse to further intervene in the political situation of Fuxing City, in the name of combating cults, deprive us of power, and then control the entire Fuxing City."

"From what you mean, you seem to be dissatisfied with this?"

Lambert froze.

"Grandfather?" He didn't understand why his grandfather would ask such a question.

"The governor is the planetary ruler appointed by the empire and the head of the alliance government. Isn't it justified and natural for the governor to completely control Fuxing City?"

Lambert frowned tightly, and said with difficulty: "You...you said...but..."

The old Hodgson said another thing: "I still remember, you said that your ideal is to save the world?"

"...Yes, nonsense when I was young and frivolous..."

"Then let me ask you now, is this ideal still buried in your heart?"

Lambert didn't want to answer: "Grandpa, what are you talking about?"

"I told you that only the Governor can save the world. I don't know if it is the Governor Gu, so I have been hesitant, just like the previous Governors, all failed. But I have recently figured out a problem: How many governors can we wait for?"

"I don't understand... Do you mean to?..."

"No, I haven't reached that point yet. I just feel that this governor is a little different from the previous ones." Old Hodgson said, "As for now, I think you have missed the point."

"Please teach me."

"The focus now is not what the Governor will do next, but what we will do. What we have to do is also very simple. Find out how serious the original Moonkin Sect has spread in Fuxing City, and what is their purpose? .This is the most important thing. It is a matter of life and death. What is the point of intrigue? It is too ridiculous to win the governor and then have the city destroyed by cultists."

"I understand!"
