Chapter 2529: Intersection

The foreign ministries of the two countries fought against each other by letter for three days, and finally, Eri City sent a diplomat who seemed to be highly qualified.
Since this matter was caused by me, naturally I also had to meet the diplomatic envoy in person.
The other party didn't say anything, so he went straight to the point and asked me for John Davis by name.
I didn't write with him either, and threw him a copy of the accounts.
"What is this?" the messenger asked while flipping through it.
"Can't you see the messenger?" I sneered: "This is the total value of public property that was secretly detained by John Davis as the general manager of the Moonlight City Hotel last year and secretly sent to your country. The total value of funds and materials transferred."
"Nonsense!" The messenger threw the notebook on the table impulsively, and said angrily: "You are framing, a false charge for John Davis!"
"Huh, what do you say is fake?" I stared at him blankly, and said every word: "Please remember your identity. You are a diplomatic envoy, not a judge. I want to show you the accounts. If you can treat this matter with a correct diplomatic attitude, you are fulfilling our previous promises, rather than making you crazy here!"
Taking a deep breath, I said lightly: "If you are really angry, hit the wall, don't splash around here."
After listening to my words, the diplomatic envoy's face flushed with anger gradually returned to his true colors. He also took a deep breath and bowed and said, "Please forgive my impulse, elder, I did not intend to target you. , I just don’t want any Chinese citizen to be treated unfairly."
I waved my hand at him casually, and I said, "Okay, let's stop playing word games and talk about business."
I posed in a comfortable position, leaning on the side of the sofa, resting my cheek with one hand, and said calmly: "I can fully understand your difficulties. As a staff member of the diplomatic service, I had to travel far and wide after receiving orders from my superiors. Moonlight City, racking my brains to take people back, otherwise they won’t be able to pay the job, or they will be demoted.

"I sympathize with these possible encounters, but can you take a look at this issue from my perspective? As an elder, I'm detecting tax evasion, corruption, bribery, embezzlement of public resources, and fornicating other countries. ...Well, just treat him as a native of Eri City, but his current location is Moonlight City. Take the secrets of Moonlight City out and give it to Eri City. What is this? Hmm... . I think about it, ah, yes, it's called the crime of espionage."
"Your Excellency, I would like to ask you, how did your country deal with the spy after it was caught?"
The diplomatic envoy had a gloomy face and remained silent.
"Just treat it as kind-hearted, you can’t bear to say, it’s okay, I’m not kind-hearted, for me, the death penalty, right, and it’s not over yet, as well as all his family, relatives, and friends living in the local area. Implicated, am I right?"
"...Law is different from law. Moonlight City is a country governed by rituals, different from Eri City."
"Then I would like to ask, what is the benchmark for the governance of the country in Ai Ruicheng?"
The messenger was silent for a moment, and a word came out: "Fa."
"Really by law? Not by power?"
I stared directly at the messenger.
After staring for a while, the messenger couldn't bear it. He coughed and said, "Does your excellency, the foreign elder who lives in Moonlight City all the year round, know his country better than me, a local?"
I curled my lips and shook my head: "Really, I am only familiar with two parts of your country."
"Which two parts?"
"Common people and poor people."
With a chuckle, I picked up the teapot, first poured a cup for the other party, then another cup for myself, picked up the teacup, took a light sip, and said, "You tell me, I have lived in Erri City. For a long time, I was in a civilian area, and I also lived in a slum area for a short time. Because of this, I am particularly clear about the dire life of the ordinary residents of Ai Rui City, especially the poor, at least, better than you. , Am I right?"
Facing my question, layers of fine sweat came out of his forehead, his temples, and he dripped down.
"Therefore, your Excellency, in my opinion, Ai Ruicheng is not governing the country by law, but by the emperor's power to rule the country!"
An ugly smile appeared on the messenger's face. He took out his handkerchief and wiped his cheeks continuously, but he couldn't wipe it clean.
I drank it, then put the teacup down, I continued to lean on the sofa and said, "But you don’t have to feel ashamed. In fact, not only Ai Ruicheng, but also the Hefeng Continent, how many countries can fully comply with the law? No one! Among them, Moonlight City is included."
"To put it bluntly, it's not that we don't want to execute it, but that we can't execute it. After all, when the butcher knife hangs high above the head of a loved one, no matter who it is, it will feel pain and despair. Therefore, there is an affair."
With a light sigh, I said indifferently: "Private love is human nature and can be understood, but at the same time we must not forget official business."
"John Davis's matter is about business, and it's a serious business!"
The messenger's complexion condensed and his eyes were heavy.
I smiled slightly and continued: "However, the seriousness is only for the impact it caused. As for the damage it caused, despite the huge amount, it did not affect the country's operations."
Hearing this, the messenger breathed a sigh of relief.
"Criminals like him who seem to be unpardonable, but who have not caused serious consequences such as affecting the country's operations, etc., will not be released on the spot if they are truly humane."
In an instant, the messenger's eyes turned wildly, and he began to fall into a state of trying to rescue John Davis.
I laughed, and suddenly changed the conversation, and said: "But! Moonlight City and Erri City do not have much overlap, and they are not allies. I really can't think of any reason to accept this favor, and at the same time I don't want to inherit this favor, the reason. It's very simple. The relationship between Ai Ruicheng and me is not good."
The messenger was immediately surprised by what I said. He never expected that I would confess my personal grievances into diplomatic talks.
He pondered for a moment, and said solemnly: "Your Excellency, this matter involves the relationship between the two countries. I advise you not to be rash."
"Is the relationship between the two countries?"
I lightly buckled the handrail with my index finger, and I whispered softly: "Your Excellency, what is the relationship between Moonlight City and Eri City? It will give me a long experience."
The messenger was speechless.
What can he say?
What can he say?
Since the establishment of Eri City, and so far, throughout the thousand years, apart from the initial joint confrontation with the monsters rushing out of the dungeon, there has been almost no overlap in diplomacy or other areas.
