Isaac

The Fall of Port City (3)

“I have decided to concede my personal vendetta to the citizens. I'm not asking for property. I just need three concessions. Well, if the citizens oppose it, I have no choice but to exercise my legitimate rights. ”

Marco, who was momentarily stunned, cries out in horror.

“Well, that can't be! I'll take responsibility and persuade him! ”

Marco also invested all the money he had accumulated in the gambling parlor. No matter what happened, the large sum of allowances had crossed the water, so I had to recover whatever was left.

“I'll wait until tomorrow morning. ”

“Well, well! Time is running out! ”

With Marco's urgent voice, Isaac shakes his head calmly as if he had no choice.

“I want to give you as much time as I can, but I've put a lot of money into it. If we don't get the results we want by tomorrow morning, we have no choice but to exercise our legitimate rights. We have to finish this in a heartbeat. It's no good to buy time. Ah! And as for the old man, if, in the midst of any confusion due to difficulty in conversation, he or she appears, unfortunately, he or she will withdraw all of the conditions I've mentioned to you now. What I want is a peaceful acquisition of distribution rights. Do you understand?”

“Ha, but……. ”

“It's time to retire, isn't it? I will not forget the grace if you work hard to keep things in order. When you resign from mayor's office, you get a bonus, right? How about three times? ”

Marco's eyes flash with greed on Isaac's offer.

“Are you sure? ”

“It's not that I don't have money. I don't lie with money. You heard how much a dealer who gave me a shot got for a tip? ”

A million gigabytes. With that kind of money, you can manipulate your luck. Marco nods at Isaac once more.

“I'll do my best. ”

“We look forward to good results. ”

“Good riddance. ”

Isaac leans against the rooftop ledge of the city hall and mutters as he looks at Port City, engulfed in anger. Loud alarm sounds reached Newport City and flooded with sightseers in canals and plazas.

As soon as he finished speaking with Isaac, Marco returned to Port City, gathering the citizens and relaying his proposal. Are you going to preserve your assets, or are you going to crash together, instead of giving up your right to distribute?

It was a question with an answer. I have not imagined how miserable it would be without money, but have seen it with my own eyes. There's a great example right next door. So being poor is scarier than the death of the citizens of Port City.

The most important thing for the citizens of Port City is their property, not the distribution rights and Congo that were used to acquire it.

I'm going to blow up my fortune, but I have a chance to get it back, and I need a few concessions. The concessions of those who helped me get to this position.

What will happen? The reason that many can live at the expense of a few is that many pressurize a few. Because it's not me.

That was the first riot in Port. Citizens rose up in unison and marched toward the families with distribution rights, and there were nearly a conflict with the guards guarding the mansion, but Isaac warned them not to come out. Marco quickly moved the city's security forces and subdued the guards, leaving four thousand behind.

While searching the mansion for Rodney and Niche, evidence of stealing important property was uncovered, and the anger of the citizens was overwhelming, and even the sorrow of things was gone.

Along with the mansion, their own buildings and objects burned down. Harold's family and Rodney and Nicke's family fled to Zeroman's mansion under Marco's guard, but Rodney and Nicke had to go through quite a rough patch.

Even Isaac, who ignored and laughed at them, gave up his best chance, but his betrayal was spurred by violence because he wanted to run away from the famous people of Port City.

“Son of a bitch! I won't let you do this! ”

“Do you think you can survive this?" You'll never get away with this! ”

Don Isaak looks at the protagonists of his voice, leaning against the railing, biting a cigarette behind his back in the voice of evil. Rodney and Niske, who had accumulated their entire lives in the distribution of water routes to the east and west, were aiming to kill Isaac with a mess at the tip of their hands for the first time.

“By the way, you saved my life and you're not thankful? ”

“Because of you! ”

“I don't know why you insist on giving up everything else if you just hand over the right to distribution. ”

“Bullshit! Distribution is my entire property! ”

“By the way, will you die just because you hand over the right to distribute? My entire fortune remains intact. Oh! Is it gone a little? ”

Isaac stares at the burning Fort Shi and is overwhelmed by the furious Rodney and Niske.

“Yuck! I'm suing you formally with the DOJ! ”

“I'll kill you with my entire fortune! ”

Isaac scratches his head with a grumpy expression in the grudged voice of two people, saying that he can't help it.

“Well, if we can't give up, we can't. Rizley.”

“Yes.”

“Send it back.”

“Really?"

“I can't help it. I don't want to sign it. Just let me go. Ah! Let the Fort Shiites know that if they light me up, they'll start collecting property. ”

“Then these two will be beaten to death. ”

“Does this have anything to do with me? ”

“…… none. ”

“Then get rid of it quickly. ”

“I understand.”

With Isaac's instructions, Rizzley and Solando tilted their heads and tried to wake them up, Rodney and Nicke's expression blurred.

“Now, hold on! Yi, if we do this, we're dead! ”

“What do I do? Sign it, then. ”

“Well, like that……. ”

“No. Does it bother you that those who hold grudges against me are still alive? I think it's better to just ignore it and negotiate with the families.... Hey, chief. What happens when these things die? ”

“Then the legacy will go to the families. ”

“Do you have the right to distribution? ”

“Yes.”

“Good. Let's just throw it away and negotiate with the families. I'd sign it if I said I'd give you an extra million gigs. We don't need the rest of them, and we need to find out exactly who they're transferring them to. ”

“What if the person who inherited the inheritance refuses? ”

“If you yield this much, you must be patient, right? If you die and you can't give up, you die. ”

“Wait!”

“Why?”

Rodney asked with a hesitant expression if he had given up everything.

“…… Is it really necessary to just hand over the right of distribution? ”

“I told you.”

“What do you mean! Rodney, wake up! ”

Nike flinches angrily, but Rodney shakes his head quietly.

“…… I'll sign it. ”

“Hmm. That's good thinking. ”

“Rodney!"

“So do you really want to die? ”

“Grrrgh!"

Frustrated Nike and his condescending face, Rodney signed the papers with trembling hands rather than aiming for the documents Solando brought.

“Here! That's it. It was a good deal."

After the transfer, Isaac glances through the documents and hands them over to Solande, who reaches out and looks at Isaac.

“Don't take this as the end. You'll only regret taking control of your distribution. I will devote my entire fortune to your destruction. ”

Isaac smiling in disgust at Rodney's voice approaches the two of you, and Rizzley brings a cold chair. Isaac, who was twisting his legs in front of them, said in a daze.

“You didn't think I was lucky that such a sloppy plan worked, did you? ”

“What?"

Isaac's words widen both eyes, and Rizzley and Solande, standing behind him, look at Isaac with their expressions wide.

“I'd like to get rid of the root, but I'm against it. What do we do? We do what we're told. ”

“W-what does that mean? ”

“Well? What does that mean? ”

The two people are confused by Isaac smiling in a vague manner. It was a nuance that there was something behind it, but I could not understand its intentions.

“Think about it. Who benefited the most from this situation? Heave-ho.”

“The glory of Fort City is over. ”

Isaac mutters as he looks behind Rodney and Niske as they pass through the square, surrounded by people. Together, the citizens of Port City flocked to hear the results. Whether they had been mentally shocked by an unimaginable urge before or not, they stumbled with a spirit.

“But there's still one left, right? ”

“The old Zero Man? Don't worry about it. I won't be able to do anything alone. ”

“The other three families' fortunes remain intact. The low power that you've accumulated, you can counterattack. ”

Isaac giggles in Rizzley's mixed voice of concern.

“Don't you know the scariest thing about people's minds? ”

“Well?”

As Rizzley tilts his head, Isaac's gaze turns to Soland.

“Heads, you know what? ”

Solandd smiles at Isaac's question.

“…… Suspicious? ”

“Oh! You noticed? ”

“I've used it several times to bring down hostile organizations. ”

“I knew I had a little head. ”

“Fort City's citizens will be torn apart and its signatures will not work together, so Fort City will collapse on its own accord. ”

Doubtful Cow.Seeds have already been planted. Now, the loss of control would be devastating, but in time you'll find out why.

The biggest suspect is Zero only. I got out just before.

I can see you're lucky, but was it luck? Doubt creates discord and discord creates friction. What if Zero was behind it, pretending to be retired and controlling everything behind it? When doubt sprouts and blooms, I will firmly believe my delusions alone are true, and even if I do not reach that state, the Fort Shi Order will lose its formerly strong unity, unless there is a source of doubt.

“Scary, human lies! ”

When Rizzley calls out in a frightened expression, Isaac reacts with a gentle attitude.

“Yes? No? I never lied to you. ”

“Yes? But……. ”

“Right? I wanted to get rid of the Earl Mills, but I couldn't, and I'm not the biggest beneficiary, am I? I just care a little bit. ”

In Isaac's wake, Solandd silences as if he had lost his words, and Rizley trembles.

“Scary, human lies! ”
