FreeGoodNovelChapter 169 Stephen was completely unaware of such matters.
All he saw was the growing economy.
However, he did not know that this growth was a once-off thing. After people experienced it once, they would never cback again.
Sof the influential attraction spots that Stephen specially approved also faced problems.
Tourists got injured during their visits! Several water-based influences almost drowned to death! This also severely affected the attraction spots' profits.
News of Snow's suicide after being charged also spread online. Even Adam knew about it. Only Stephen, barred by the ISP, had no idea.
There were two days left until the event.
Stephen called Adam. "I want to go out and have a look. Aqua City must be incredibly lively right now." Adam's expression was conflicted. He knew that Snow was dead, but he could not say anything. Word on the streets was still discussing this news.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf Stephen went out, he might hear about Snow's death, and it would be a devastating blow to him.
After a moment of hesitation, Adam said, "You should get srest for now. You'll be very busy once the event starts." Stephen found it strange, especially Adam's behavior. The latter kept looking around but refused to make eye contact.
"Is there something on my face?" "N-No." "Then, why won't you look at me?" "You're too dazzling." The mayor was wracking his brains to cup with a believable answer.
Stephen was exasperated. "Fine, I'll go rest." Adam sighed in relief.
Chapter 169 After he left, he specifically instructed his assistant not to let Stephen leave and immediately report if he made any movements.
The assistant understood.
Adam was also very busy now.
As the number of tourists increased, so did the pressure on Aqua City. There was more and more trash in the water, and the cleaning had to be intensified from once every three hours to once every hour.
At sfarm stays, speople stirred up scenes over the high prices.
Fish farmers were also complaining about the large numbers of dead fish and wanted compensation. Otherwise, they would not have any fish to sell this year. No fish meant no money! Without money, they would have to work in the factories.
The more people worked in the factories, the faster they operated, and the more wastewater they discharged.
It was another vicious cycle! There was one day left until the event.
Stephen could hear the bustling sounds of the streets outside from inside his room. He could not sit still anymore and wanted to go take a look.
He made Aqua City this lively. Why could he not see it for himself? However, he was stopped at the door.
"The mayor has ordered that you should rest properly. You can't leave." Stephen frowned. What was going on? Why did Adam keep wanting him to rest? He had already rested enough! "Don't stop me. I want to go out and have a look!" The more they tried to stop him, the more he wanted to go out and see what was happening.
He pushed the person aside and strode out.
The assistant panicked and quickly called the mayor. "Bad news! He went out!" 2/3 Chapter 169 Adam broke out in a cold sweat and rushed over.
Stephen walked onto the street and saw the crowd. It was much livelier than before. Everything was thriving.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe did not understand why they were trying to stop him from coming out.
Were they worried he would be in danger? That was impossible.
This was not North Hill City or Seaside City. Who would harm him? He walked to a street vendor to buy ssnacks.
The vendor handed him two skewers and said, "That'll be 100 dollars."
"100 dollars?" Stephen's heart skipped a beat. That was far too could be expensive. The skewers could be finished in two bites, but the vendor was selling them at triple digits? "Isn't that too expensive?" The man simply said, "If you can't afford it, then get lost. What a bunch of backwater hicks." Stephen clenched his fists in anger. How dare he speak to him like that? "Do you even know who I am?" His voice turned cold.
Before he could answer, the assistant ran over and shouted, "I'm the m mayor's assistant. Are you overcharging people? Just wait for your fine!"
He did not dare to let Stephen continue. The situation was dire now.
What if someone asked Stephen, What do you think about Snow Green's death?' It would be over! Tomorrow was the sports event.
Nothing could go wrong at this critical moment! The vendor froze in fear, and the assistant sighed in relief. Stephen's identity had not been revealed.
Just then...
"Say, did Snow Green really kill herself out of guilt?" That sentence cfrom a few tourists walking nearby. 3/3 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
