Candela sat up straight, clasping her hands together to support her chin. "Nephew Chen, you know, with Governor Wei and I in our positions, even if we don't want to, we have to abide by certain established rules."

"Actually, I don't mind if Governor Wei sends a random representative. Of course, it can't be too random, just someone of similar status to you, nephew. I will treat this person the same way I treat you now."

"What does status have to do with this? I invited Governor Wei and his wife and the Rat King to come over for fun, but they knew it wasn't okay, and I knew it wasn't okay either."

"He doesn't have to come, but he can't just send someone here. Otherwise, it would be a sign of disrespect from Governor Longmen to Mayor Dosoles."

Candela rubbed her forehead with a headache and said speechlessly: "If that happens, the newspapers of Longmen and Dossores will be full of this kind of information tomorrow. It will be very troublesome..."

"In other words, Governor Wei sent someone who can represent her identity?"

After Candela's explanation, Chen finally understood what she meant.

That is to say, in addition to her and Talina, there was another person from Longmen who came to Dosoles, and he came here on behalf of Wei Yanwu.

"Xingxiong? Or Shi Huaiya?"

Guessing the identity of the visitor, Chen thought of the candidate in his mind, but was denied by Candela.

"neither."

"That is..."

"Sir, here we are."

Just as Chen was about to continue guessing, a soldier in military uniform interrupted their conversation.

At the same time, a familiar voice came from the door.

"Dear Mayor Dosores, Ms. Candela Sánchez, on behalf of Longmen Governor Wei..."

"Lin Yuxia?!"

Looking back at the figure at the door in disbelief, Chen's eyes were full of surprise.

That pink hair, those furry ears, isn't that Lin Yuxia, the daughter of the Dragon Gate Rat King?!

Like Chen, after hearing the familiar voice, Lin Yuxia looked over and found Chen Huijie sitting on the sofa.

"Chen Huijie?!"

"Why is it you?"*2

The two of them spoke the same words as if they had agreed upon it, and the level of tacit understanding they had made Talina next to them amazed.

Could these two be half-sisters?

The effect of this show is... simply amazing.

"I understand. No wonder Madam Wen Yue asked me to come."

Stroking her chin, Lin Yuxia finally understood why Wen Yue had called her father earlier.

It turns out that he is digging a hole here waiting for me.

"Are you the one representing Wei Yanwu?"

Looking at Lin Yuxia, Chen sized up his childhood playmate.

In terms of identity alone, Lin Yuxia is indeed enough to represent Wei Yanwu.

But Chen Wanwan didn't expect that it would be Lin Yuxia who came.

"It seems that the two of you know each other, that's great."

Looking at the farce in front of her, Candela smiled.

She didn't feel any disgust, rather she was happy to see this scene.

She has been in power for many years and has not seen such "pure" friendship for a long time.

"We were just classmates before."

"A friend of a friend, that's all."

Chen and Lin Yuxia turned their heads and sat on either side, while Talina acted as a buffer zone in the middle.

Fortunately, her relationship with Lin Yuxia was pretty good, so Lin Yuxia didn't have any objections.

"Then it would be nice to get to know each other again here."

Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, Candela sat back in her seat.

"Anyway, Nephew Lin, just like Nephew Chen, you can also call me by my first name. Don't be so formal."

"Even if you're here on behalf of Governor Wei, there's no need to overthink it or feel burdened."

Candela sat in her seat with her arms outstretched, her tone filled with pride. "All you three need to do is enjoy yourself in this city that I'm so proud of."

"That's all!"

Volume 6: Chapter 5: The King of Silent Scenes

"I understand."

Speaking in unison, the tacit understanding between Lin Yuxia and Chen Huijie caught Talina's attention.

These two people...are they telepathic?

"Don't imitate my way of speaking!"*2

"Don't you understand? *2"

"Okay, stop talking...it's rude of you to do that."

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly serious, Talina quickly stepped forward to pull the two little guys apart.

If they are allowed to continue making trouble, it will be Longmen that will be embarrassed.

"Haha! Being energetic is a good thing. I wouldn't be able to start a fight right now..."

Candela, who had been enjoying the entire "performance" on the side, didn't care about the so-called offense, but she couldn't allow Chen Huijie and the others to continue making such a fuss.

Even if Talina didn't take action, she would speak up and stop.

But she still has something important to say.

"By the way, I've heard that your two nephews are exceptionally skilled and intelligent, both of them are truly exceptional individuals, capable of accomplishing great things. Therefore, I've prepared some extra fun for you two."

"Extra fun?"

Chen, who had finally calmed down after being comforted by Talina, asked curiously.

Candela clapped her hands, and the soldier standing next to her respectfully handed a document to her.

"Well, before we get into that, I wonder if you three nephews know anything about the city's biggest summer event?"

"The Summer Grand Prix?"

Listening to Candela's words, Talina raised her hand and gave the answer.

"Well, that's it."

Glancing at Talina with admiration, Candela continued, "As everyone knows, Dosoles's greatest feature is the 'sea' surrounding the city."

"And the ship at sea."

Candela stood up from her seat, walked to the window, and looked at the huge ship sailing in the "ocean".

"That was a masterpiece I painstakingly reconstructed from Iberian technology."

"That statue too?"

Coming to the window, Talina pointed at the golden dog-head statue on the bow and asked.

That statue has nothing to do with beauty. It's ugly but cute, but it's not ugly.

"Hahaha, just personal interest."

Smiling, Candela looked at the ocean outside the window and explained, "The water in Dosoles is drawn from the vast ocean to the north. Strictly speaking, it's dead water."

"Since it's stagnant water, it means it's dirty and smelly, so Dosoles changes the water at least twice a year."

"After all, I don't want my guests to swim in dirty water. This is not Dossores' way of hospitality."

“So, the Ironman Grand Prix was born.”

"It's a big reality show that I support and that takes place all over the city."

"If you two are interested, someone will introduce you later."

"And the winner of the competition will have the honor of personally pressing the water change button, which belongs only to this city."

After talking about the so-called Grand Prix in one breath, Candela returned to the table.

"Has it turned the originally tedious process into a national movement..."

Lin Yuxia on the side muttered to herself, and at the same time she kept in mind what Wen Yue said before she came.

"Yes, I think the three nephews are quite skilled. If you are interested, you can try to join in."

"If the three of you win this year's competition, not only will Governor Wei be honored, but I will also prepare a special gift for you three."

Sitting back in her seat, Candela waved the document in her hand.

"Let's put the team aside. We'll consider participating in the competition. Compared to that, what was the fun you just mentioned?"

Chen withdrew his gaze from Lin Yuxia and asked curiously.

Compared to teaming up with Lin Yuxia, she would rather be a lone wolf. Even with Talina, she is confident that she can win the competition.

Seeing Chen mention this matter, Candela smiled slightly and put the document in her hand on the table and pushed it over.

"Just last week, my men intercepted a smuggling operation of explosives and universal circuits. While I allow most things to happen, this is not one of them."

"It's Grand Prix time right now, and anything that happens could potentially impact Dosoles' reputation. I won't let that happen. If you're interested, please check it out. All the information we have is here."

After explaining everything, Candela watched Chen open the document and added, "Originally, there's no fun in just distributing weapons, but the Grand Prix is ​​being held right now, so..."

"So there's not enough manpower? And smuggling at this stall..."

After taking a quick glance at the document, Chen, who had worked in the Guard Bureau for several years, immediately wrote down the important information.

"If you want to do something in the Grand Prix, you can try to investigate from the gray area."

After completing what Chen had not yet finished saying, Lin Yuxia's "gray" thinking also made Chen look at her more.

If she were to come, she might not be able to do as well as Lin Yuxia. After all, she is better at arresting people with evidence rather than going directly to the door to find trouble.

"Very good, very good. It seems that the fun I prepared for you three is indeed correct. It would be great if you three nephews are interested in it."

"Anyway, if you three don't find it exciting enough, you might as well try checking it out, especially you, nephew Chen."

Looking at Chen, Candela said meaningfully: "I know people like you enjoy the process of investigating cases the most."

"...Aren't you worried about the threat to your city?"

Chen felt more and more pressured by Candela's inexplicable trust in him.

"Worried? Nephew Chen, you don't understand."

As if she had heard a joke, a confident smile appeared on Candela's face: "With me here, no one can threaten this city."

"You can completely put this matter behind you and enjoy your vacation happily. Even if something happens to Dosoles because of this incident, it will not be the responsibility of the three nephews."

"Like I said, it's just a little fun for the three of you."

Faced with Candela's confident speech, Chen couldn't find the right words to respond for a moment.

"...We understand."

Seeing this, Lin Yuxia hurried out to answer for Chen who had made a mistake.

"Good, and one last thing."

Seeing Lin Yuxia being so "understanding", Candela couldn't help but relax.

"Although I would love to personally tell my three nephews about the splendor of Dosoles, which I personally built... However, since Governor Wei himself is not here, it would be inappropriate for me to personally accompany my three nephews."

"So, I prepared a guide for the three of you."

After saying that, Candela clapped her hands: "Ernesto, come up."

As Candela's call ended, a blonde girl named Pero, wearing cool summer clothes, walked in.

The other person had an exaggerated "knife" hanging around his waist, which looked like a toy.

"Ms. Candela."
