Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 192 Ike Appears
After negotiating the request with Silko, Marcos got up and walked out of the office, and left Fulgan's Tavern under the watchful eyes of Sevica and other bottom city gangsters.

"Next, five days later, the Black Scorpion bandit will arrive at the smuggling dock."

Marcus has arranged for Silko to send enough carriages to take people to the bottom city that day, and wait for the day of evolution to break into Picheng.

Go back to the research institute, find Jess and Zevi, and call them together: "Is everything ready?"

"Lightweight Hexclaws, according to your request, made two." Jess replied: "And the power is also adjusted to the maximum, it only takes one second to shoot through obsidian."

"Ten pairs of the latest Atlas gloves are still short of the last two pairs. They are rushing to work and will be in place before the evolution day." Zevi also talked about his progress.

The energy adjustment device has been successfully developed and put into practical use. Both the Hexclaw and the Atlas glove are equipped with a unified regulator, which greatly improves the practicability.

"Very good." Marcos nodded in satisfaction: "I'm more at ease when you do things."

"Sir."

Catherine met Marcos, put down the blueprints under development, and walked over.

Marcus knew that she must have something to do with him, so he asked Jess to go back to work first, and then asked Catherine why she was here.

Catherine asked for instructions: "Who did you entrust with the security on Evolution Day? Why haven't I been notified until today?"

There were originally three deputy sheriff positions in Piltover. Since Pan Han and Logan were beaten away by Marcus, only Catherine was holding them up.

Marcus intends to train Vi and Clegg to take over the other two deputy sheriff positions respectively, but the qualifications of the two are still relatively inexperienced, and now the top positions are not convincing.

"I will personally lead someone to be responsible for the security on the evolution day." Marcos said lightly, "Is there any problem?"

"What?" Catherine was taken aback for a moment, and then said anxiously, "What about me? What should I do?"

"You?" Marcus thought for a while, and arranged: "When the time comes, you will take everyone to patrol the northern city of Piltover, especially the rich area where the nobles live. You must strengthen security and don't let thieves Xiao Xiao has an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"But..." Catherine was dissatisfied with this arrangement, and she wanted to take over the security work at the Evolution Day Carnival.

She has always wanted to prove to her mother that she is very suitable to be a law enforcement officer, and she will definitely be qualified for any job of a law enforcement officer.

Of course Marcus understood what she was thinking, but this time he couldn't give it to Catherine, so he simply pretended to be stupid and said, "Are you worried about the security of the southern city? Don't worry, I will hand over the patrol work here to Hank. "

"I……"

Catherine still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Marcus directly: "By the way, I see that you often stay in the research institute for a whole day, although the law and order in Picheng has always been very good, since the Golden Devil was driven away , and even a major case did not happen, but you are the only deputy sheriff of the Law Enforcement Bureau after all, so you should pay more attention to your job when you have time."

In the past, when Nigtim was still there, many people from the bottom city would go to the upper city to steal chickens and dogs.

Ever since Marcus took over Grayson's position as Deputy Sheriff and cooperated with Silko to root out several gangs, large and small, in the bottom city, the law and order in Piltover has almost reached the best period in history.

People live and work in peace and contentment, and now when they go shopping, they don't need to be wary of their wallets disappearing for no reason.

In this regard, Marcos did not hear words of praise from the residents. Instead, he occasionally heard people discussing whether the Picheng Law Enforcement Bureau still needs to exist.

There are not even people who break the law. Is it necessary for law enforcement agencies to continue to exist?
It's better to ban it, and it can save a lot of money for the municipal government to provide for those scientists to do scientific research.

Well, Marcos secretly investigated the people who made such remarks. They are all half-assed inventors who are not even willing to recruit roadside workshops. They made something similar to "land swimming machine", "handstand washing machine" Inventions that brighten the eyes of the blind, such as the head device.

"But my job is almost no different from that of a police patrol." Catherine complained bitterly.

Although she knew that this idea was not very good, sometimes she really hoped that there would be some cases of stealing, murder and arson in Piltover to keep herself busy.

"Then go on patrol!" Marcos caught a glimpse of Wei and the others coming in from the entrance of the institute, looking anxious, as if there was something urgent.

Dropping a disgruntled Catherine, he went over and asked, "What's going on?"

"Marcos, come with us." Wei dragged Marcos out of the institute.

Marcus looked puzzled, and asked Craig: "What happened? Why are you in such a panic?"

Craig glanced at Wei, and said, "We found Ike...or rather, Ike came to us on his own initiative."

"What?!" Marcus was shocked when he heard Ike's name: "Why didn't you say it earlier! Where is he?"

"At the infirmary," Melo interjected. "We found him on patrol. He was passed out in a corner of Piltover's border with Zaun. It was Jinx running around that found Tiny."

Marcus frowned, and waved for a carriage: "Is he injured? Is it serious?"

"It's very serious." Clegg said with a solemn expression, "Doctor Ryan said that he is not sure of curing him."

"No way?" Marcus was startled, and hurriedly urged the coachman: "Nursing, hurry up!"

When everyone rushed to the hospital, Ike had been pushed into the operating room by Dr. Ryan, and only Jinx was guarding here.

"Weird!" Seeing Marcus, Jinx jumped up and threw herself into his arms, her voice choked up: "Little one...the little one might be dying..."

"Don't talk nonsense." Marcus patted her on the back lightly: "Dr. Ryan is still rescuing him, there is still hope."

"But Dr. Ryan's face turned purple when he saw the injury on the little one." Jinx sobbed, "I don't think he can cure the little one, woo, little one is going to die."

As a child, Ike and Jinx had the best relationship.

Marcus has seen a MV related to the original drama, and through that MV, it can be seen that Ike likes Jinx.

Although Jinx may only treat the other party as an older brother or a younger brother, but after all, it is a relationship for many years. At this time, the other party is seriously injured and lying in the operating room, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.

Marcus didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only let her lie in his arms to vent his emotions, and asked Wei and the others: "What kind of injury did Ike suffer? Make all of you think he can't survive?"

"He..." Wei said dejectedly, "Some holes were opened on his body."

"The wound is like a blooming flower," Melo continued.
