Master of Thermodynamics - Chapter 594
Chapter 591 Rules are above all else
“Shoo…shoo…”
In the middle of the night, Lord Vaneko and the butler Henderson, all in a panic, finally saw the gate of Chaka Town. However, they were greeted by a sharp whistle.
“Beggars are forbidden to enter Chaka Town… Catch them…”
“Asshole, he has hands and feet but doesn’t work well, so he still wants to come to Chaka Town to beg…”
“Come here, arrest these two beggars and send them to the labor camp…”
Four or five officers from the Public Security Department rushed to the two men like tigers, shouting and screaming, so that they turned around and ran away.
At this moment, the older Lord Waneko exposed his strength as a noble awakener. He threw away his cane and ran forward, much faster than the butler Henderson.
“Stop, don’t run…”
“Damn beggar, running very fast… chase me…”
The guards yelled and hurriedly chased.
Since Chaka Town promulgated the policy of “cleaning up the dross”, the gangsters, hooligans, beggars, etc. that had been in and out of the town were almost wiped out. They all entered the labor camp and were forced to redeem their souls in labor.
In order to encourage arrests, the Government Affairs Office even issued a reward.
If civilians report the “dregs”, they can get a sum of money, usually 50 copper nars; if the staff of the Public Security Department successfully catch the dregs, they can also receive an extra bounty, the amount is approximately 1-2 silver nars.
This amount of money is not small. After all, most of the staff of the Public Security Department do not earn more than 20 silver nars a month.
Under the stimulus of money, they looked at the “escaping beggar” in the eyes at this time, just like looking at the “walking human-shaped silver nar”.
The hapless lord and the housekeeper had been trekking in the wild for most of the night. They had walked a full ten kilometers long. They were already exhausted. They did not escape very far, and they were pushed to the ground by a group of strong men one after another.
The Lord was crushed by two big men, his old face pressed against the mud, and his moustache was stained with stains.
He struggled vigorously and tried to defend himself:
“I’m not a beggar…ah, lighter…I’m a nobleman…”
These words immediately evoked a wave of cynicism.
“Do you think we are idiots? Which nobleman came to Chaka Town in a carriage? Have you ever seen a nobleman walking by…”
“Haha, what a stupid scum, we are not blind, you are all black and mud…are there any nobles that are so dirty?”
“I am Lord Vaneko. I am really a nobleman.” The Lord defended desperately. “The **** coachman deceived us. This shameful and greedy guy abandoned us halfway. We had to walk all the way… ”
“Don’t try to quibble, do you think we will believe your lie? Honestly go to work in the labor camp…” a staff member replied with a smile.
The Lord suddenly remembered something, and raised his head vigorously, and said loudly:
“I am an aristocrat who was invited to participate in the’Fireworks Show’… I have an invitation letter issued by the Haichao Chamber of Commerce in my pocket. If you don’t believe it, you can find out and take a look.”
The staff calmed down and looked at each other.
After a few breaths, the lord felt a hand in his pocket, fumbled for a moment, and then retracted.
Then he heard a whisper.
“This thing seems to be really an invitation, but I don’t know the words. Who knows what’s written on it?”
“Raymond, show me, I have learned a bit of general writing…”
Next came the chanting of stumbling.
“Dear Lord Vaneco…Chaka Town…Uh…, it is planned to host a firework show on the night of the Harvest Festival… Your presence will be our honor…”
The staff were silent for a moment, and then began to discuss in a low voice.
“My God, this guy dressed like a beggar is really a nobleman…”
“It’s unbelievable that there are nobles who have been so miserable… But, guys, we seem to be in trouble, what should we do now?”
The Lord felt that the opponent’s pressure on him was obviously much smaller, and he couldn’t help but said proudly:
“How? I didn’t lie to you…you bastards… assholes, let go of the master…”
He secretly vowed that as long as this evening passed, he would complain to the Public Security Department about these untouchables, let them lose their jobs, and find a way to clean them up.
Humph, don’t kill you, the master will change his name to “Lord Coward” in the future.
“boom!”
A wooden stick hit the back of the Lord’s head fiercely, and the Lord fainted without a word.
“Raymond, Bovary, throw this guy at the door of the asylum…” A faint voice rang.
He is the captain of this group of police officers, Edmundo.
“Boss Edmundo, is there any problem with doing this? This guy is a noble…” Raymond asked anxiously.
“What can be the problem?” Edmundo shrugged and said indifferently, “I don’t believe in such a shameful thing, Lord Van Echo dare to speak out?”
“Does the lord still need the face of the nobility? Don’t worry, he will definitely not make things bigger.
“Hey, I will apply to the chief tomorrow to take the whole family and immigrate to Hai Chao Ling, even if the Lord wants to clean up me in secret, his hand cannot reach Hai Chao Ling…”
“Boss, you are right.” Raymond nodded in agreement, “I have long heard that the Hai Tide Islands are very rich and the laws are fair. I just want to immigrate… These nobles don’t have a good thing…”
Other employees also followed suit.
“I also follow the boss…”
“I also immigrate…”
In another world, the status of the common people and the nobles is very different, and the nobles can only be left to the fish. The ordinary common people anger the nobles, and it is almost dead.
In the past, after Edmundo, Raymond and others had done this kind of thing, there was only one way to go and abandon their homes to flee. They were as worried as a bereaved dog, and it was impossible to be as calm as they are now.
However, the emergence of the sea tide collar gave them a chance to survive.

“Shoo…shoo…”
A middle-aged policeman wearing a black uniform and a red armband on his right arm suddenly blew the police whistle. After hearing this sound, the crowds on the street began to dodge.
The police trot across the crowd and came to a young man in a blue noble hunting suit. He pointed to a piece of **** casually thrown on the ground and shouted:
“This gentleman, according to the decree issued by the Government Affairs Department, no littering is allowed anywhere in Redstone Town. I ask you to pick it up immediately and throw it into the trash can over there.”
“In addition, please take out your Haichao collar residence permit. I need to check your certificate. Your behavior will be recorded. At the same time, you must participate in a one-day public service…”
The young man looked at the police with disdain, sneered and interrupted the other party:
“Non-brained fool, the statute is only used to demand things from untouchables, don’t prescribe the statute before me…Do you know who I am?”
“Sir, please pick up the **** and take out your residence permit. This is the first warning.” The policeman took a deep look at the young man and said Su Rong.
“Hey, buddy, my father is Mr. Abdul from the Rune Research Institute. He is the head of a special laboratory under the Research Institute, and he is trusted by the lord.” The young man said smugly. “Are you sure you still want to warn me?”
“Sir, I’ll repeat it again. Please pick up the trash and take out your residence permit. This is the second warning.” The policeman remained unmoved, and pressed the police magic pistol in his belt with his right hand.
The so-called “Police Magic Pistol” is a small power pistol developed by the Weapons Research Institute for the police system in the territory. Its bullet caliber is smaller and the power of the rune group on the firearm is weaker.
Using it to fight the little monsters in other worlds may not be ideal, but it can’t be more suitable for public security management.
“My father knows Mr. Hossene, the chief of the police department… idiot, I tell you, you’re done, you will be kicked out of the police department tomorrow…” the young man shouted angrily.
“Sir, this is the third warning.” The police said righteously.
“I can also tell you that the great lord himself said that in Haichao, ‘rules are above everything’, everyone must abide by the rules, nobles or civilians, no one can make an exception.”
He drew closer to the youth, took out his pistol, and shouted sharply:
“I declare that you have been arrested!”
The young man laughed “haha” and pushed the police impatiently, shouting in his mouth:
“Stop using pistols to scare me… Get out, don’t get in my way, I’m going to the central square of Redstone Town, waiting for the’firework show’ tonight…”
“Bang! Bang!”
The police suddenly punched the young man in the abdomen with lightning speed.
The young man bent down in pain and wailed in pain.
The police took the opportunity to press the opponent to the ground, took out the handcuffs to cuff his hands, and sneered:
“Sir, you are in serious trouble now.”
After a pause, he said in a mocking tone:
“I’m afraid your father, Mr. Abdul, can’t help you either… Hmph, don’t even think about watching the fireworks show, just stay at the police station…”
The police picked up the trash, walked to the trash can, threw it in, then returned to the young man, grabbed his collar, and escorted him away.
…
Across the street, the Frederick family witnessed the farce throughout.
Vera blinked, turned her head and said to her husband:
“My dear, I like the phrase “rules are above everything”… The **** nobleman always forces the civilians to obey the rules, but he likes to break the rules. This is too unfair…”
Frederick nodded, and when he was about to speak, the little daughter Betty in his arms rolled her eyes and screamed in imitation of her mother’s tone:
“Damn noble…damn noble…”
“Oh, Betty.” Frederick hurriedly covered his little daughter’s mouth and whispered, “This is not what a lady should say.”
Vera quickly turned her head and looked around, and found that no one noticed her family, and she was relieved.
Although she hates the nobles deep in her heart, the long-standing tradition has made her deeply understand that cursing the nobles in public for no reason will only bring disaster to the family.
“My dear, let’s go to the central square. There are more and more people in the town, and there may be nowhere to go if you are late.” While holding her elder daughter Bella’s hand, she urged her husband to move forward.
“Mom, do I have to throw the **** in the trash can, or I will be caught by the police?” Bella suddenly asked, a little scared, Xiao Gu Liang was frightened by the scene just now.
“Yes, Bella, you must abide by the rules.” Vera said affirmatively, “Remember this sentence, ‘rules are above everything’, this is the lord’s teaching…”
“But, Mom, I saw you throw **** on the clearing yesterday.” Bella shook Vera’s hand and said pitifully, “Mom, don’t do this in the future. I don’t want to see you being caught by the police. .”
“Okay, okay, this is my mother’s fault, I remember, I won’t do this again…” Vera suddenly couldn’t laugh or cry.
The family merged into the flow of people and drifted away.
………………
Chaka Town, Haichao Hotel.
In the evening, a large number of nobles gathered in this luxurious hotel, known for its “most delicious food”, all of them were invited to watch the “firework show”.
“Oh, I like this pan-fried lamb chop so much. Its taste is incredible. It is obviously the same ingredients. Why can the chef of Haichao Hotel always cook more deliciously?” A nobleman Elegantly fork a piece of golden lamb chops, and said with admiration.
Another nobleman put forward a different opinion:
“Baron Margaux, I think Haichao Hotel’s best dish is sea fish…especially this’charcoal grilled silver catfish fillet’. Its meat is delicious, with the unique fragrance of charcoal grilling. It’s not greasy, it suits my taste very much.”
“Furthermore, the silver catfish is a large marine fish of the awakening level. It has a ferocious temperament and is very powerful. It can easily destroy an ordinary fishing boat… If an ordinary fisherman encounters a silver catfish, most of it will die, in the entire kingdom. , And only the fishing boats of Haichao collar can catch it.”
“When I ordered the food, I asked the waiter specifically. He said that this is the freshest silver catfish. It was just caught by a fishing boat this morning, and then it was preserved with ice and sent to Chaka town urgently.”
“Except for Haichao Hotel, even if you are in the palace of Blue Lake City, you are unlikely to eat this dish…”
“No, no, no, Viscount Lafite.” Baron Margaux shook his head and retorted. “You are right. Silver catfish is a rare high-quality ingredient, but precious ingredients are easier to make. The requirements are lower…I think that a common ingredient like lamb chops can best test the level of a chef…”
“Your Excellency, the statement that’precious ingredients are easy to make’ is actually a kind of prejudice…” Viscount Lafite did not agree with the other party’s point of view.
Seeing that the dispute between the two nobles became more and more intense, the third noble on the table, Viscount Obian, couldn’t help but make a round:
“Hey, two gentlemen, you are all respected gentlemen. I don’t think this is a place for argument. Why not enjoy this meal?”
“I personally think that taste is a private experience, and different people have different tastes and preferences…”
Viscount Lafite and Baron Margaux looked at each other, gave each other a polite smile, and simply closed their mouths.
Suddenly, only the clash of knives and forks and cutlery and the sound of chewing were left on the dining table where the three of them were sitting. The atmosphere seemed a little dull.
“cough!”
Viscount Obian suddenly coughed, breaking the silence:
“Two people, what do you think of the’firework show’ tonight? I have asked about the news, no one knows what the’firework show’ is, and no one knows what the **** of the world is going to do under the flame crown…”
Viscount Lafite put down the knife and fork, took up the white napkin, wiped his mouth, and replied:
“From its name, I guess it must be a performance related to flames.”
His voice was extremely low, with a hint of mockery in his tone:
“Hey, it’s raining heavily outside, and the fierce flames will be extinguished by the rain… The power under the crown is awesome, I don’t doubt it at all, but I am not optimistic about the’firework show’…”
Baron Margaux hesitated, then agreed:
“I agree with Viscount Lafite, I’m afraid I am having a headache for this.”
At this time, several exclaims suddenly sounded in the large and luxuriously decorated restaurant, and a huge shock could be heard.
“Oh… Father God is here, this is really amazing…”
“My God, how is this possible? Is this the power of the gods?”
“Everyone, come out and watch, I can guarantee that you will not believe it…”
The restaurant became lively in an instant.
