Chapter 487 What's going on? A coup
In the wealthy area of Norweigan, a luxuriously decorated carriage slowly drove in, and its wheels made a dull sound as they rolled over the cobblestone streets.
The carriage stopped at the door of Mayor Nowei's house. The coachman shouted softly, jumped off the carriage, and opened the door respectfully.
The drunken mayor of Nowe staggered out of the carriage. His steps were unsteady, his eyes were blurry, and he seemed to be walking on cotton.
He held the car door with both hands, trying to steady his body, mumbling something incoherent, and then walked towards his home.
As soon as he entered the house, Mayor Noway collapsed directly on the leather sofa in the living room like a puddle of mud.
The leather of the sofa dented slightly under the weight of his body, and his huge frame almost took up the entire sofa.
The mayor's wife was sitting on a chair nearby, sewing, one of her few hobbies. When she saw Mayor Nowell's expression, she couldn't help but frown and complained:
"Hey, why did you drink so much again!"
When the mayor heard this, he raised his head and muttered in a daze:
"Huh?! I've earned so much money for my family, so what's wrong with drinking a little? Without me making money outside, you can live in this house!"
Seeing his careless look, the mayor's wife quickly whispered:
"Stop talking, stop talking. Don't you know that the money you earn is not earned in a legitimate way?"
There was a hint of worry in her eyes. She moved closer to the mayor and said in a low voice:
"You're so loud, what if someone hears you?"
The mayor disagreed and said nonchalantly:
"What are you afraid of? If the sky falls, we have Duna to hold it up. Didn't you see that the inspector came here to keep an eye on Duna? Moreover, the entire city council and the city defense officers are our people. If ordinary citizens hear about this, can they go to Helmingen, thousands of miles away, to complain to the king?"
He paused, then continued to complain about Duna:
"And what's going on with this Duna? He's been in Helmingen for almost a month and he hasn't come back yet. Maybe he thinks he's been exposed and ran away with the money!"
The mayor's wife sighed helplessly and said:
"Didn't he say he took the money in order to find a protective umbrella up there?"
The mayor said angrily:
"Looking for... bullshit, what do you mean by asking for a bribe of 5,000 gold coins to be an official? Do you know what this means? The commercial tax revenue of the entire Norwegian city cannot even reach this amount. Why does he need the king as a protective umbrella?"
At this point, he suddenly felt that it was possible that Duna had really done this. When he was in the Yoda Empire, he was keen on giving gifts to Count Novi. If he really gave gifts to the king, he might be able to get himself an official position.
He felt unbalanced and thought:
"Let's see what the situation is. If he succeeds, I will also give gifts to the king. My official position is no higher than his as a car dealer."
"Boom boom boom!"
Just then, a violent knock on the door broke the silence in the room.
Mayor Nowei frowned impatiently and loudly ordered someone to go and ask.
The servant hurried to the door and asked:
"Which one?"
"A Mr. Duna asked me to deliver the letter here!"
A young voice came from outside the door.
The servant peeked out through the crack in the door and saw a young man holding a letter. He turned and ran back to the house and said to Mayor Novi:
"There's a letter from Mr. Duna."
"What about the letter?"
the mayor asked eagerly.
"In the hands of the man outside the door."
The servant replied.
Hearing this, Mayor Novi complained:
"You are so stupid. Why don't you just bring the letter here? Why do you have to make that extra trip?"
The scolded servant immediately came to the door, opened it, and saw the young man opposite holding the letter, motionless.
Just as the servant was about to reach out to take the letter, several people suddenly jumped out from the side.
One of them acted quickly and covered the servant's mouth, and the others behind him rushed into the house.
In an instant, the house was in chaos, with the sound of things breaking and screams coming one after another.
Before Mayor Nowei could react, several people twisted his hands, blindfolded him, and then roughly pushed him out.
Outside the door, a carriage was parked. This carriage was very special, made of iron sheets, and even the windows were equipped with iron bars. It was obviously used to transport prisoners.
There was also a team of soldiers standing next to the carriage. They were wearing uniform armor, and the masks on their helmets covered most of their faces, revealing only their cold eyes and determined outlines.
The armor style of these soldiers was not the same as that of the local city defense forces. They held long spears, the tips of which flashed coldly in the moonlight, emitting a chilling aura.
Several men kicked and stomped Mayor Noway into the prison van. The mayor struggled in the van and shouted angrily, but his mouth was quickly blocked by something blocked by the soldiers.
The soldiers skillfully closed and locked the prison van door.
Then they jumped in front of the carriage, one of them drove it, waved the whip, and the carriage drove away immediately.
The soldiers behind followed closely, and the whole team moved forward in an orderly manner towards the outside of the city.
At this time, the only people left in the living room of Mayor Nowei's house were the gasping servants and the panicked hostess in the house. The hostess watched all this happen, her legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground.
At the same time, similar scenes were playing out in different parts of Norwegian city.
In the lobby of the City Hall, the originally quiet atmosphere was broken by a burst of hurried footsteps.
Dozens of unidentified people rushed in like ghosts, holding various handcuffs and sharp weapons, with sharp and fierce eyes.
The councillors who were working in the city hall were quickly subdued by these personnel before they had time to react.
Some lawmakers tried to resist, but were suddenly pinned to the ground, screaming in pain while struggling.
Then they were neatly tied up, gagged, dragged out of the town hall, and stuffed into a waiting carriage.
In the military camp, there was also chaos. When some city defense soldiers were chatting at the camp gate, a large number of soldiers suddenly rushed over from a distance. Before they could react, they were surrounded. The smart city defense soldiers raised their weapons and squatted down. Immediately, several soldiers disarmed the city defense soldiers.
The officers were taken away individually. As they were being taken away, their faces were filled with fear and confusion.
The armory in the military camp was also quickly controlled and the weapons were collected to prevent any unexpected situations.
In various corners of the city, the homes of many smugglers were also raided.
The soldiers kicked open the door, rushed into the house, and dragged the smuggler who was still sleeping.
The smugglers were terrified and some tried to resist, but were held hostage by the soldiers with weapons and had no choice but to surrender.
Their residences were quickly searched, and all kinds of smuggled goods and evidence were found one by one. Then these smugglers were pushed onto carriages like other arrested people.
The entire city of Norwegian fell into panic. When the residents heard the noise outside, they opened their windows and looked out.
They saw a large number of unidentified people running rampant in the city. The residents did not know what was going on and were so scared that they closed their doors and windows and dared not go out.
At the same time, a large number of troops entered the city from outside. The officers shouted the martial law order of the Governor of Norwegian Province on the streets and asked residents to return home and wait for the notice to lift the martial law.
Some people who like to do good things wanted to join in the fun, but when they saw a large number of ferocious-looking soldiers on the streets, they could only return home obediently.
After leaving the city of Norwegian, the carriage filled with criminals did not stop but immediately drove to the prison not far from here.
At this time, the prisoners in the prison had been transferred elsewhere in advance, and the prison was empty.
Wesker led the torturers, interrogators and a group of high-ranking prison officials from the central government all gathered here, ready to use some criminal arts on this group of people.
