Chapter 977
As the crowd gathered, someone exclaimed, “Look, the mayor is here!”
“The police department officials are here too.”
“And the heads of the Commerce and Agriculture Departments…”
“What’s happening? It’s so unusual to see all these important figures from the town here.”
Such a scene was extremely rare for the residents of Anchortown. Usually, these people would only gather when there was a significant event in town. Why were they all coming to Templar Valor today?
“Mr. Harrison…”
When Mr. Harrison walked past Philips Caver, the leader of the Flightstones Gang, he trembled and greeted him.
“Philips, did you get yourself into trouble again? Are you itching to spend some time in the police station? Getting a dose of morals and law education?”
“Haha, you’ve got it all wrong. I just came to watch a martial arts competition. Look at my hands all wrapped up in bandages. How could I cause trouble?”
Philips quickly raised his bandaged hands to explain.
The mayor ignored him. From this incident, it was clear that he was indeed a victim. In his heart, he silently thought, ‘Serves him right.’
“Alright, everyone disperse!”
Mr. Harrison walked to the center and issued a loud command.
The people he had brought with him began dispersing the crowd.
Although the onlookers were puzzled about what was going on, the mayor had given his orders. They didn’t dare to continue gathering and watching.
Emmanuel was also puzzled. Why do none of these things seem logical?
Could it be that he was also here to cause trouble?
“Old Mr. Quillen, we have prepared a feast. Could you please join us for a conversation?”
Once the crowd had dispersed, the mayor approached Terence and spoke with a respectful and humble tone.
“Haha, Harrison, you’ve become the mayor. Congratulations!”
Terence exchanged a few pleasantries with the mayor before agreeing to attend the feast.
Of course, Emmanuel would accompany him. Shane, who had a knack for mooching off his elder brother, would tag along for a free meal. Not only that, he also intended to bring Red along.
“Emmanuel, can I come along with all of you?”
