Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 446
[Chapter 444 Origin]
The cold breath in the room seemed to calm down slightly, and the living people who were shivering due to the cold finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But Tirian still didn’t respond to a series of “suggestions” put forward by the confidential secretary. He just calmly watched the things on the table, as if a century had passed.
When everyone was almost overwhelmed by the silence, he finally raised his head: “This is the wisdom to maintain order. It must have played a big role half a century ago.” “You should know that back
then How far has the frost of the world reached?” There was no evasion in the eyes of the confidential secretary, “Great people will do many great things, but the mistakes they make will be as fatal as their great achievements-in order to control the situation, some We have to do something. General Tirian, I have studied history, in fact…I personally always think that His Majesty Ray Nora is a great ruler, but this cannot cover up the mess after the failure of the Abyss plan.”
” Yes, you have studied history—and I have personally experienced history,” Tirian said calmly, “We all know the situation back then, so I don’t mean to be harsh, in all fairness, you at least made Frost stable after that It’s been half a century.”
The tense nerves of the confidential secretary finally seemed to relax a little bit, and he subconsciously leaned forward: “So, you mean that you agree…”
Tirian didn’t speak, but just moved the He pressed his hand on those documents with a little force.
The power of extreme cold soaked through the paper, and the fine ice crystals quickly condensed and shattered. With the sound of rustling, those records enough to leave countless thick traces in history were reduced to debris.
The confidential secretary’s eyes widened in an instant, and General Lister, who hadn’t spoken much, couldn’t help but exclaimed in a low voice: “You are…”
“That’s not what I want.” Tirian raised his head and looked at the Frost Man opposite, “What I want is the real record—what’s wrong with that mine, how did the cultists infiltrate the city-state, In the end, who is responsible and who is not, and the real track of the Consul Winston’s administration—give me the most authentic first-hand information without considering the premise of ‘quick restoration of order’.” He
paused , and continued: “This is something necessary to control the situation.”
The confidential secretary was taken aback for a moment, and quickly reacted: “You have agreed to Frost’s ‘invitation’…but with all due respect, you still need the information on the table just now.” Of course, you can grasp the real information, but you also need to find a way to divert the attention of the people—” He
hesitated for two seconds when he said this, as if he had made up his mind, and then continued: “To be honest, the city The next situation here will be very bad, a lot of infrastructure may have to be shut down for a while, coupled with the pollution caused by the ‘mud’, the fuel supply will be tight, food distribution will also be problematic, public security will deteriorate, and the resulting We must find a way to divert the public’s attention, and diverting the attention of the people to the previous government and consuls is the most effective way…” “If the fuel is
tight, use the reserves. If it doesn’t work, I can find a way. Food distribution is chaotic and strict The supervision and punishment of the city, including the upper city, the whole city implements a rationing system, and when the public security deteriorates, there will be temporary military control. People need a target to vent their anger-then they should really catch the cultists, subversive elements, and those who really People who are responsible,” Tirian said seriously, “this series of things will of course be more difficult, but at least, this can actually solve the problem, and truly ‘let more people survive’.” In the room for a
while When it became quiet, people could even hear the sound of breathing. The confidential secretary, who always appeared elegant and decent, seemed to be a little stiff for a while, and seemed to be at a loss as to how to respond to Tirian’s imposing words.
Tirian just smiled lightly and shook his head slightly: “I will not belittle your efforts and your solutions – because within your capabilities, there is no better alternative path, you choose But now the situation is different, and I don’t want to repeat the past fifty years, Mr. Secretary, the Sea Fog Fleet has the sea fog fleet’s method, so you might as well raise your expectations a bit.”
The confidential secretary seemed to finally come to his senses. He blinked, adjusted his posture, and looked at Tirian with burning eyes: “You can really do what you said?” “As long as the remaining power of the city hall can do it to the greatest
extent Cooperate, as for the others…” Tirian paused deliberately when he said this, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, “Mr. Secretary, do you know who is the most orderly person in the boundless sea?” “The most orderly
? “The confidential secretary was stunned for a moment, as if he didn’t realize it, “Is it the city-state navy? Or an ocean caravan?
” Supply ports and safe ports, ocean-going caravans will always have church protection and naval escort, only pirates—to fight against the boundless sea, we can only rely on strict discipline and order.” The confidential secretary did not speak for a while, as if it was
not Knowing how to discuss the topic – it was clearly beyond his day-to-day job scope and professional competence.
When Tirian saw this, he just smiled, and reached out to pat the opponent’s shoulder.
“Relax, Mr. Secretary, compared with fifty years ago, the current frost situation is actually not too bad. I also know many ‘trade partners’. I believe that if we let them know the real situation here , there will be many people who are willing to help, at least in terms of secular order, you don’t have to worry too much, as for the part outside the ‘secular order’…”
Tirian suddenly paused and looked up out of the window.
A dark night enveloped the city, the radiance of gas lamps snaked around the port area, the snow stopped at some point, the clouds dissipated, and the cold and pale radiance of the Creator of the World was covering the world—and under this clear radiance , The city is peaceful tonight.
“The part outside the secular order… I think my father will find a way.” The
big pirate hesitated for a few seconds, and finally said slowly in a strange tone.
Many people in the room visibly shivered.
“Your father, he…” General Liszt couldn’t help but use the word “he” subconsciously in the title, “Is he still watching Frost now? Where is he now?” Of course he was watching Frost
, It might even be standing on the window on the second floor, living at No. 44 Oak Street, renting a house from your citizen service center…
A series of answers instantly appeared in Tirian’s mind, but he hesitated and dared not say come out.
After all, it seems that the Frost people in front of me don’t know the situation of “he” in the city at the moment. If I talk nonsense without my father’s permission, if I don’t keep it all back, I will be hurt by my father-I will soon A person who becomes a consul can’t bear the face.
“He is still paying attention to this matter, but the specific situation cannot be disclosed.” After hesitating for a long time, the big pirate could only say vaguely, “He is usually very busy, not only wants to contact me.” Liszt was startled, and nodded
quickly : “Ah… understandable.”
I don’t know how he understood it.
But the confidential secretary couldn’t help but asked a little curiously: “Your father… what does he do on weekdays?”
Tirian resisted the urge to roll his eyes—where would he know? ? After my father came back from the subspace, his whole body was shrouded in mystery. Who knows what his old man is doing on weekdays? He can’t just go fishing, walk his dog, and feed pigeons like an ordinary retired old man. The confidential secretary noticed
Tirian Subtle changes in the expression, realizing that my question has been crossed, I quickly straightened my expression: “Sorry, I am talking too much.” “It’s
okay, but ordinary people really shouldn’t discuss too much about ‘him’. It’s for the sake of physical and mental health, let’s end this topic.” Tirian waved his hand and quickly changed the subject.
Then he breathed a long sigh of relief, slowly got up from the sofa, and came to the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The lights outside the window were still on, and at several intersections leading to the city, the temporary barricades built in the previous battles could still be vaguely seen.
At sunrise tomorrow, those barricades will be dismantled, and after that… it’s up to the city’s administrators to do everything they can to restore order here.
The lights of thousands of houses in the distant city blocks came into Tirian’s eyes.
“I haven’t seen the scenery here for many years, and it hasn’t changed much compared to that year.”
General Liszt came over and stood behind Tirian: “But after today, there should be great changes “
…Fifty years ago, the last royalists left the city, the rebel army set up a new city hall, and I became a rebel. Fifty years later, I came back again. The city is still the same as when I left…” Looking at the distant scenery, Tirian suddenly felt emotional, “Going around, everything seems to come back—General Liszt, tell me, our past fifty years …What’s the point?”
Liszt didn’t make a sound for a while, as if he was lost in thought.
But the confidential secretary walked over from the side, raised his finger and pointed out the window.
“General Tirian, these are the meanings.”
