The Archives Management Department belongs to the nursing department in Cape Port City Hall, and basically those civil servants who are about to retire but are incapable will be stuffed here. Morris serves as the minister of this department because of his incompetence. His life can basically perfectly summarize Morris's political career.
Such a mayoral candidate with sufficient qualifications and no ability is worrying, naturally was pushed into the mayor's seat by various forces. After sitting for more than ten years, he became the mayor who had been in power for the longest time.
When the second mayor term was about to arrive, the powerful and powerful in the city thought of changing someone else to be the mayor, but they searched all the candidates but found someone who was more incompetent than Morris. Almost all civil servants qualified to become mayors were extremely capable and very unreliable. In the end, the city council forced to take the initiative to ask Morris to propose an extension of his term.
Although Morris's ability to govern is generally poor, he has not submitted a truly useful proposal during his ten-year term. His daily work is to go to work, get off work, and then go to some private clubs to play cards and chat, but what is interesting is that in the past ten years, the politics and economy of Cape Port have developed the fastest in the past ten years, and public security and other aspects have been good for more than ten years. There has basically been no large-scale workers' parades, poor riots, and the like in the past.
This is not because Mosley has any magical ability, but because in order to adapt to this incompetent mayor, the City Hall had to come up with a policy plan, which is the Roundtable Parliament, which is also called a small council.
The members of this council are ministers of various departments, and unlike the city council, a speaker in charge of the order and nominal leaders of the council, all ministers who participate in the roundtable have the greatest powers of the department they have, their identities here are as high and low as other ministers.
All the implemented decrees are discussed and passed in the roundtable parliament, and then issued and implemented. In order to avoid disputes causing stagnation of the issue, each decree has a fixed time to discuss. After discussion, vote immediately. Once passed, no matter how unwilling it is, it must be implemented. If it is not passed, the decree can be modified and left for the next discussion. However, each decree has only three chances of repeated discussion. More than three decrees will be completely abolished and no discussion will be conducted.
After the decree passed at the roundtable parliament, it will be handed over to the mayor of Morris, the nominal signature, and then handed over to the city council for filing or vote as a proposal, and finally implemented in practice.
It is precisely because of the efficiency of the roundtable council that even without the leader of the mayor, the city hall can continue to operate efficiently, creating a rapid economic development and stable public security over the past decade.
If a mayor who is slightly motivated would never allow a special organization like the Roundtable Council that completely deprives the mayor's rights to exist in the City Hall, but Mayor Mosley is different. Instead, he is very happy to see the Roundtable Council take away all his rights, and he doesn't even need to hold those boring meetings. Every day, he just needs to wait until the meeting is over and sign the documents brought by the secretary. It is no exaggeration to say that he can no longer remember when the last time he carefully reads the government decree documents.
Enjoy all kinds of delicacies every day, play cards with a few good friends I can talk to, and go out to sea to fish during holidays. Mosley feels that he should live like this for the rest of his life.
However, what made him feel a headache was that such a stable life might not be able to go on again, because some cultists came into the city. Although the church and the town hall did not tell him what kind of cult they were, judging from the church and the town hall as if they were facing a great enemy, these cultists were absolutely very dangerous. Because of this, as the mayor, he was placed under house arrest in the official residence in the name of protection. Not only did the city hall send an elite city guard to protect his safety, but even the church of Chasing the Dead next to the official residence sent five church knights to station in the official residence to prevent accidents.
Morris felt that these arrangements were completely unnecessary. He did not think that the cultists would attack him. After all, he was a recognized decoration and his life would not have any impact on the entire Cape West Port.
But others don't think so. Even if Morris is a useless mascot, as long as he is in the mayor position for one day, he represents Cape West Port. If something happens to him, it will definitely cause a huge blow to Cape West Port's reputation.
"Can't you tell me who is a cult? I'm the mayor, and I have the right to know which cultists threatened my city?" Morris scratched his bald head, tried to make himself look more majestic, and questioned his secretary.
However, the fat that kept trembling while walking made the majesty he tried hard to pretend to look particularly funny.
However, the mayor's secretary was professionally trained after all. Facing the funny-looking boss in front of him, he could tolerate the smile in his heart and keep himself calm. Then he replied in a formulaic manner: "Mr. Mayor, I have submitted your request to the Roundtable Council. The response they gave was that if you know what the cultists in the city are, what to do? Are there any specific solutions and solutions that can solve the cultists?"
"Uh!" In the face of the inquiry conveyed by his secretary, Morris opened his mouth and said nothing. As the question said, even if he knew which cultists were in the city, he could not do anything.
Thinking of this, he curled his lips and sat on the sofa with some displeasure. Although the new sofa had been reinforced, he still made some crunching sounds in the face of his weight. The secretary, who heard this sound, quickly wrote a question on his notebook style that needed to customize the new sofa.
"Mr. Mayor, Bishop Mullen of the Church of Pleasant is here." At this time, someone knocked on the door gently, and then the housekeeper of the official residence opened the door and saluted Morris, and said.
Morris immediately stood up from the sofa and said happily: "Bissary Mullen is here. It's so good. Finally, there is someone to talk to. Please invite him to come, wait, let's invite him to the amusement room! Last time I and him had a game of fate card, and it's over today." As he said that, he turned to look at the secretary and said, "You go back! Just inform me if you have any news, but I can't do anything anyway."
"Okay, Mr. Mayor." The secretary gave a very decent greeting and turned around and walked out of the room.
Morris also left the official office, and while walking, he instructed the butler to prepare some delicious food and delicious food and deliver it to the playroom later.
Morris walked with his short legs and moved his huge body through the foyer, bypassed the main building of the official residence from a small path, passed through the official residence garden, and came to the amusement room located at the back of the official residence.
I saw that the amusement room converted from the former mayor's studio is filled with various chess and card games that are popular in the mainland. There are also many classic old games stored in the wall-constructed display cabinet. It is no exaggeration to say that the number of chess and card games stored here is enough to open a complete exhibition of chess and card games.
Although Morris is almost equivalent to incompetence in his governance ability, no one can deny his talent in chess and card games. He is the champion of the five-time Continental Destiny Card and the champion of the four-time Holy Chess. He is the first mainland chess and card players. In order to become famous, his amazing achievements in chess and card games, the Mainland Chess and Card Association also specially customized a set of fate and sacred chess for him with gold and gems.
Bishop Mullen of Happy Church is also a master of chess and cards. Although it cannot be compared with Morris, at least the two of them can have back and forth between cards and chess games, and they are not easily defeated by Morris like others. Therefore, Bishop Mullen has become Morris' friend because of this, and can even be said to be one of Morris's few friends.
When Morris came to the game room, Bishop Mullen had not been brought over by his servants, he quickly cleared out a table, opened a set of fate cards he had just bought, and then placed them according to the game fate cards they had not completed before.
After completing these preparations, footsteps came from the game room, and then the servants of the official residence opened the door, and the familiar Bishop Mullen walked in from outside.
However, at the moment of seeing Bishop Mullen, the happy expression on Morris's face suddenly stopped, replaced by doubt and confusion, and his eyes looking at Bishop Mullen were also full of vigilance.
The servant closed the door of the game room as usual, leaving Bishop Mullen and Morris alone in the game room, and then left.
When the servant left the footsteps and entered the room, Morris asked in a sudden and deep voice: "Who are you?"
"Old friend, what are you kidding? Don't you know me after not seeing you for a few days?" Bishop Mullen said with a confused look on his face.
Morris said in a deep voice: "I know my old friend Bishop Mullen, but I don't know you."
Bishop Mullen looked amused and cried, and said, "What are you talking about insane? Am I not Bishop Mullen?"
Morris said with great certainty: "Of course not, you just look like Bishop Mullen. Your behavior and expression are completely different from Bishop Mullen."
Hearing Morris' words, Bishop Mullen in front of him showed a look of surprise on his face, and he looked up and down like a large number of strangers, and then said: "It's really surprising, Mayor Morris, you are really surprising. Everyone outside has underestimated you. The name of fool Morris should not be used on you."
"I don't think there is anything wrong with this title? Sometimes being a fool is much more difficult than being a smart person." Morris acted very calmly and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong with my good friend Bishop Mullen now? Are you dead?"
The other party said, "Of course not. I just let him sleep for a while, and then borrowed his identity to come to you to get something that belonged to me."
"What belongs to you?" Morris was stunned, then pointed to the half-length statue of the mermaid he had someone to move from the office to the game room in the morning, and said, "Is it that statue?"
