Vol V Chapter 36

Colin's words stunned 4079 for a moment. 4079 seemed to have guessed Colin's thoughts, but he only hesitated for a moment before saying,""Yes."

As he spoke, 4079 looked around warily and told Colin the details in a low voice.

Colin noted it down in his heart and looked at 4079 with admiration. He said indifferently,""You're not bad."

4079 asked with uncertainty,"Lord Red Dragon, I…I want to know, are you the scarlet cocoon I saw that day…"

Colin did not deny it. After all, the higher-ups of the Lighthouse already knew about it. He only asked,""What can you do even if you know?”

"I…I know how powerful you are, and I also know that you have no ill intentions towards humans. You should understand the difference between the upper citizens and the lower citizens on the lighthouse. In your eyes, I don't see any discrimination. I... I want to be a real person for once!”

Seeing this, 4079's tone was timid at first, then his gaze slowly became firm.

Although 4079 was moved, Colin could not help but scare him,""Aren't you afraid that my performance at the Lighthouse was all a disguise?”

"If it's possible, I'm willing to bet!"

Upon hearing his words, Colin's lips curled into a smile. He patted his shoulder and left.

Colin did not reply, which puzzled 4079.

However, unbeknownst to 4079, there were several well-hidden city guards who had come to the vicinity to look for Colin and continue their surveillance work...

A few hours after the departure ceremony, the various departments also spent their busiest working hours of the day.

In the metal corridor of the department, Jing Nan found Charles and walked with him with the smart recorder in his hand. He said patiently,""Charles, the City Lord's first-aid medicine is almost used up. I have already adjusted the route and searched the nearby medical collection area with all my strength. In the future, you will have to worry about taking care of the City Lord.”

Jing Nan then moved the smart recording board and handed it to Charles. There was no doubt that this was a handover. However, this was just the beginning. The matter of Guangying Media's head shifting had not been officially announced to the entire Lighthouse.

Charles looked ahead indifferently and said indifferently,""The City Lord is in good health. You worry too much.”

As soon as she said this, Charles quickened his pace and did not want to hear more from her.

Jing Nan didn't sense his emotions. He quickly followed him and said anxiously,""The City Lord's heart has always been weak, and now he's getting old…"

Before she could finish, Charles continued to retort with a displeased look,""I don't need you to remind me. This is what I should do for both public and private matters. I will take good care of him until the day he travels far away. I will let him personally practice the rules of survival that he has set for himself.”

" I know the mayor's decision is hard for you to accept," Jing Nan said." But I hope you can care about him as his son."”

"Don't forget, there's no father and son on the lighthouse anymore. This was decided by the City Lord himself…"

Charles 'words caught Jing Nan's attention and he asked,""Then why did you call him father in public during the court meeting?”

As soon as he finished speaking, his words clearly provoked Charles. His gaze turned cold as he pushed Jing Nan against the metal wall and scolded,"What do you know? I'm the leader when needed, and I'm the son when not needed? A woman who looked like my mother and was taken in by him better mind her own business!”

As he spoke, Charles 'fist slammed heavily on the metal wall beside the mirror.

"Charles."

A familiar voice calmed Charles down. He first saw Mark, then Colin.

Colin had returned to the room from the lighthouse's flight slide. He happened to bump into Mark on the way and chatted with him. He didn't expect to encounter such a dramatic scene.

Charles looked at Colin and retracted his arm.

Jing Nan lectured,"The City Lord's decision will not change.”

Charles snorted coldly, his fists hidden in his military coat curled up tightly, as if he was unwilling. His eyes revealed a trace of coldness, and then he quickly left.

After Charles left, Jing Nan looked at Colin and Mark and said,""Are the Red Dragon Lord and the future City Lord so free?”

It was rare for Colin to see Jing Nan. He sized her up and said,""I was just chatting with Ma Ke and happened to pass by.”

" You two are quite close," Jing Nan replied with a smile." It seems like Ma Ke is indeed qualified to be the future city lord."”

However, Mark didn't smile. What he was about to say was more important, and it was also the secret of the Lighthouse that Mark had always wanted to know.

Even though Colin knew all of this, he couldn't explain it to Mark. Mark needed to understand it himself.

In order to prevent the two of them from being monitored by the City Defense Army, Colin did not stay there for long. He quickly left the metal tunnel and handed the conversation to Mark and Jing Nan.

The internal strife of the Lighthouse was about to begin…
