[Chapter 261 Winter City’s Chief Representative in the Biochemical World]
“Public transportation? Do we have to consider this now?”
If it was the original Governor of Royal Port, Weatherby Swan, he would definitely not care about public transportation. Is it necessary for a group of ordinary people to consider how to get from one side of the city to the other?
Most civilians’ living areas are confined to a very small area, and walking on foot is enough.
In other words, nobles and officials have the need to run around, and the officials of Winter City can always ask the Cybertronians’ transformed vehicles to help them, so it is convenient to go anywhere, as if public transportation is not necessary?
However, Weatherby Swan had made up a lot of knowledge before becoming the political official of Winter City. He has a good ability to accept knowledge, and he understands that Earl David Glamorgan does not want a “backward” city, but an advanced modern city.
“There is already this demand, and it is relatively simple to establish a public transportation system now, and it will also allow everyone to better accept this new thing.”
Winter City’s area is constantly expanding. It does take some time to go from the northernmost to the southernmost, and this time will continue to increase in the future.
Considering that many people now work in various shops in the city and will work in various factories in the future, more and more people will have to travel back and forth in the city every day.
After listening to Weatherby’s report, David also realized that the public transportation system must be established: “Do you have any ideas?”
“First, establish a few basic bus routes to connect the southernmost and northernmost, easternmost and westernmost parts of Winter City, and then consider adding more routes later.”
“Yeah!” David felt that Weatherby’s plan was very reliable, and as long as the round-trip routes of the two routes were well planned, it could basically ensure that they could radiate all areas of Winter City.
“At the beginning, there is no need for large buses, ordinary medium-sized buses can meet the needs.” At present, Winter City has a certain manufacturing capacity. For example, the transport trucks used by the Winter Legion are made by Winter City itself.
Although the manufacturing speed is not fast, it can already meet the needs of Winter City itself.
Therefore, these public buses do not need to be imported from a certain world, or a car manufacturing plant needs to be built first.
“Let’s do it! As for how many buses are needed, you can directly communicate with the Alchemy Workshop.” The vehicles currently used in Winter City are nominally manufactured by the Alchemy Workshop: “But you may need to find a driver yourself.”
“Everyone Rick recruits knows how to drive.”
Rick has been working hard to search for survivors in his original world. In order to ensure Rick’s safety, or to solve problems as soon as possible, Rick now often acts with a Transformer.
This not only guarantees Rick’s own safety, but also greatly improves his work efficiency. After all, there are no villains in that world who can fight against Transformers.
Rick’s activity area is the North American continent, which is known as a country living on wheels. Driving is a necessary skill for almost everyone, and only a very small number of people cannot drive.
So these people only need simple training, understand the route and work regulations, and then they can go directly to work.
“Then let’s do it!”
Stamping the plan for building a public transportation system means that the plan has been officially approved by the lord. Although he only understood the situation and stamped it to indicate his agreement, he was still full of a sense of accomplishment in his heart: playing farming and construction games in front of the computer is indeed not as fulfilling as running a real city!
Watching Weatherby leave with satisfaction, David waited for the next job to come.
Unexpectedly, this time it was not an official or ordinary person in Winter City who came to him to make suggestions related to urban development.
After Weatherby left, the next person to come to him was Leon Kennedy, the man he had wanted to bring into the special operations team before.
“Huh? It’s strange that you suddenly came to me.”
Leon and David had a good relationship. When David helped Leon heal the injuries of his comrade Jack Krauser and took Krauser in Winter City, Leon was very grateful to David.
At the same time, Leon also likes Winter City very much. He likes to come to Winter City to relax when he is on vacation. In his words, “I don’t have to worry about being disturbed when I take vacation here. Otherwise, I will be restless every time I take vacation, and I will always be called back to perform tasks suddenly.”
In addition, he will come to ask for help when he encounters trouble, but he will not come to David. Maybe he thinks that David, as the lord of Winter City and an earl, should not have the time and energy to take care of his little troubles?
Therefore, when Leon ran to the office of Glamorgan Castle to find David, David even wondered if there was a huge change in the world of Resident Evil?
“The world is destroyed?”
“…”
Leon was speechless. At David’s call, he sat down on the sofa in the corner of the room.
There are sofas and coffee tables here, which are convenient for David to use when he receives guests in the office. There are usually some fresh fruits and cakes on the coffee table. The maids in Glamorgan Castle will change it every day to ensure that the fruits are always fresh.
“What’s the matter?”
“I want to ask something, and there are some things that may require your permission.”
“Oh?”
Leon’s expression was very serious. David realized that Leon had something very important to ask him this time, so he also put on a serious expression and waited quietly for the next words.
Leon is not a politician, nor a businessman, and he has a good relationship with David, so he didn’t beat around the bush and directly told the story in straightforward language.
After listening to it, David knew why Leon came to him: Leon hopes to help Shirley get rid of the current situation of being under official house arrest. If possible, he hopes to send Shirley to live in Winter City.
If it is just this little thing, Leon came to David specifically, which seems a bit over the top.
But the point of the matter is not whether Shirley comes to Winter City, but how Shirley’s current situation will change!
After Leon easily rescued the president’s daughter Ashley Graham, it was no longer a secret that he had special abilities.
Fortunately, the president himself and Leon’s immediate superiors trusted and valued him very much, so Leon was not treated “specially” because of his special abilities. Even though some people wanted to lock him up with Shirley for research, they were rejected by the president himself.
However, the president could only protect Leon for a while, but it was impossible for him to protect him all the time. For this, the president came up with a solution: to establish a special department, and let Leon be in charge of this newly established special department.
In addition to protecting the president and important people, this special department also has the responsibility to deal with various special events-currently mainly targeting various biochemical events.
Letting Leon be in charge of this department actually also has the idea of letting him try to teach his special abilities to others. This can also be regarded as a kind of research. Leon’s abilities are reasonably utilized, and Leon, the hero, has not been turned into an experimental subject. It is a proposal that all parties can accept.
Leon did not agree immediately, because these special abilities he possessed were obtained from Winter City, and he was not prepared to teach them to anyone without David’s permission.
“Actually, this is not a big deal!”
The world of Resident Evil is full of villains who are causing trouble. If Leon can teach more powerful warriors to deal with biochemical incidents, it can be regarded as a great thing.
Of course, there are no shortage of guys who can read the good sutras in the wrong way in any world, such as the security consultant named Simmons, who is not a good thing.
From Leon’s words, it can be known that it is Simmons and his group who want Leon to become an experimental subject.
“I think you can agree, and then take the opportunity to cultivate your own power.” David couldn’t help but touch his chin.
He was thinking, if Leon can establish a power that completely obeys him in the world of Resident Evil, and use the power provided by Winter City, can it be regarded as Winter City’s first step in invading the biochemical world?
“I don’t think I have the talent in this area.”
Leon is not averse to cultivating his own power. He himself has no good feelings for officials and politicians. He was forced to become an agent at first, just to protect Shirley.
Later, he would continue to do it, more because of human feelings and justice in his heart.
In addition to being responsible for the president’s security at the beginning, Leon’s main work later was to deal with various biochemical incidents. For a person who has seen too many tragedies caused by biochemical weapons, he wished he could personally eliminate all biochemical weapons and related people, which is why he always fights on the front line.
“People can make progress through learning, and sometimes things are not that complicated. As long as you always stick to your heart and are strong enough, you will naturally attract people who share the same ideals as you.”
These people who believe in Leon and are willing to obey his orders are the capital for Leon to live a good life in that world.
In addition, he also learned one thing: there is no arcane energy in the world of Resident Evil. Every time Leon consumes his magic power, he needs to restore his magic power through the clean water containing arcane energy brought back from Winter City. If he drinks up all the water with arcane energy, he must return to Winter City to replenish it.
Even if he has a kettle that can automatically absorb arcane energy, he has to come to Winter City to absorb arcane energy.
In other words, even if Leon passes on the relevant knowledge of arcane, he himself is an irreplaceable special existence, and there is no possibility of being abandoned.
After clarifying all the situations, David believes that Lyon can definitely strive for more and better conditions, and then Lyon’s help to Winter City and David will become even greater.
