Like a strange change without warning, a wanted poster with a gray photo on the mottled old wall suddenly caught Xi Ziyue's eyes.

The location in the photo was on the steps outside a large building. A figure wearing a gray-brown blood-stained robe passed by like a god of death. The people around him were frightened and could not avoid it.

The face of the wanted man was hidden under a thick hood and mask, only a pair of ferocious and bloodthirsty eyes were revealed, staring into the camera lens.

As if she didn't notice the movement of the team around her, Xi Ziyue's attention was firmly attracted by this wanted notice for no reason.

Staring at the guy on the wanted poster, Xi Ziyue shivered uncontrollably. Before she could ask anything, Zhuoyila's voice sounded beside her: "He is a serial killer."

"Serial killer?" Xi Ziyue was surprised.

"Since the mayoral election began a few months ago, he has been committing crimes continuously, killing many people... It is said that the targets are senior officials of the city hall." Zoila's eyes also stayed on the wanted order.

, staring at the killer shrouded in shadow.

"Can you tell me something about him?" Xi Ziyue suddenly became curious about this guy.

"I'm not sure. The specific details about his crimes are stored in the archives of the Security Bureau. The photo you see now is a scene where he rushed to the street after a certain crime and was captured." Zhuo.

Ila said.

"It is now certain that he does not want this mayoral race to continue."

"Why?"

"Many mayoral candidates, including me, have received threatening letters from him, asking us to withdraw from the race. It is said that he also sent the same threatening letter to the city hall, and attached a finger. It was from a certain person.

A part cut off from the official's body," Zoira said.

"Then the mayor...how did the city hall respond?"

"The city hall has not given a clear reply so far. It just asked the newspaper not to aggravate the situation, strengthen the protective force of the guard, and the election will proceed as usual."

"Do you think this person is related to the group of people who held you hostage a few days ago?" Xi Ziyue stretched out her finger and rubbed it thoughtfully on the wanted notice.

"According to Chief Mathias, there is not much connection between the two. This serial killer's past records are all crimes committed alone, without any help from others."

Xi Ziyue could understand. Just listening to the description, she could imagine that this serial killer was a paranoid lone wolf who didn't like cooperation and was disdainful of cooperation. He was most likely different from the kidnapping incident a few days ago.

"Then what do you think of him?" Xi Ziyue was still very concerned about this matter.

"I was quite scared before, but I'm not scared anymore. It's just a killer, and I have one here." Zhuoyila smiled at Xi Ziyue, soft and bright.

"No, I am an assassin, not a killer..." Xi Ziyue was slightly speechless.

"It's just a joke." Zoila put away her smile and looked at the wanted notice with a serious look again, "In short, I will be careful about him, and it is best to bring him to justice...

He has caused too much trouble for this city."

Continuing to follow the team, they arrived in front of the trade union building. The old but highly respected old man walked down the steps and held Zoila's hand as soon as he came up, showing a particularly cordial attitude.

The old man is the union president of this industrial area. He can be regarded as a regional leader and Zoila's staunchest supporter. In addition to providing votes, he also provides a large amount of campaign funds and is a veritable financial backer.

"Everyone, please stay away. Next, I will have a closed-door conversation with Miss Zoila." The president waved his hand and dismissed the outstanding servants and journalists.

Immediately, his eyes fell on Xi Ziyue and motioned her to leave with his eyes.

"Rose is my running mate and also serves as my bodyguard." Zoila responded with a firm look.

"This... this is so hard. Although you are so lovable, you have to take on such a great responsibility... Very good! Very good!" The president coughed twice and tried his best to

He looked away from Xi Ziyue.

Hey! You old man, you have the same moral character as the vice principal!

The closed-door meeting began, and the entire team was blocked from the door. In the spacious and comfortable conference room, Xi Ziyue sat cautiously next to Zhuoyila, waiting for the president to bring the brewed tea.

"Is the recent election going well?" the president started in a homely tone.

"It's very pessimistic. Since entering the final round of elections, I can clearly feel that the pressure has increased." Zoila shook the spoon in the cup, her eyebrows tightened.

"Where does the pressure come from?" the president continued to ask.

"There are all aspects, including impetuosity within the team, conflicts between various departments, and pressure from competitors. They use their control over public opinion to spread unfavorable rumors about me and discredit my campaign plan."

When she said these words, Xi Ziyue could clearly feel her hidden anger rising.

If anything, there was security pressure, but after Xi Ziyue joined the company, this has eased a lot.

"That's really bad. Do you have any good ideas to deal with them now?" The president showed a very concerned expression.

"I can't think of a good solution at the moment. My main focus during this period is on adjusting my campaign promises, and I don't have much time to pay attention to these things."

At this time, she glanced at Xi Ziyue, her long eyelashes fluttering as if to hint something.

It was probably a hint to see if I could help.

Xi Ziyue calmly pretended not to see it.

Having said that, she is also in a dilemma on this point, unless she is allowed to physically destroy her opponent.

"One of the problems now is that it is difficult for my publicity to reach other places except industrial areas. If I can break this dilemma, it will be much easier." Zhuoyila said casually, but Xi Ziyue could clearly feel her

It's hinting at something.

Such as money and so on...

However, the president remained unmoved. He lowered his head and sipped the tea attentively. The dim light from the window cast a white reflection on his thick glasses.

"President, there is basically only one month left before the final general election. During this period, can you give me more support?" Zoila leaned forward to the table, her eyes more firm and sincere.

The president still showed no reaction, like a statue in deep contemplation.

"President!" Zoila called softly.

"Zoila, I can understand your feelings, but the additional support you hope for next is not a small amount. If you fail in the election, the end will be ugly for me, and even the people who have always supported you." Yes.

Chang spoke in a calm but dignified voice, and one could sense his noble and respected demeanor.

But Xi Ziyue clearly felt it.

This old man has a guilty conscience... a very guilty conscience. He is like a paper tiger, which can be broken with a poke.

But what on earth is he lying about?

Xi Ziyue put down the tea cup and glanced left and right, hoping to find any clues nearby.

"It only takes one time. I need to rent the Aegina Concert Hall in Uptown for two hours. I need to convey my ideas to the residents in Uptown." Zoila said a more specific plan this time.

"Are you kidding! The rent for the Aegina Concert Hall is sky-high, especially now that it is in the hands of Gyurchani. He is your biggest competitor, and he will not rent it to you no matter how much money you pay.

"After hearing the specific plan, the president calculated the price in his mind and was so scared that his tongue was tied.

"It doesn't matter, I consulted the mayor, and he made it clear that candidates are not allowed to monopolize venues or newspapers, which means that I can rent it at normal prices. I just need to prevent him from secretly sabotaging it." Zoila thought clearly.

respond.

"But...but what if you rent it? Are you going to give a speech there? It's not like you don't know the virtues of those grandpas in Shangcheng District. Not many people will come to listen to your long speech. Besides,

, even if many people come, how many of them will vote for you? This is not cost-effective!" The president was still very resistant.

"If the seats are full, I guarantee that more than 30% of the residents of the uptown area will vote for me. This number is enough for me to take the first place..."

"Zhuoyila, I suggest you stop embarrassing Mr. President." Xi Ziyue suddenly spoke.

Zoila looked at her puzzled.

"President, I have no money to sponsor you." Xi Ziyue said.
