Chapter 1145 - 1145

That night.

Mona was very wild.

Not only changing positions, changing places, but also using large-scale movements, her shouting was loud.

It seemed like this wasn't a collision of love, but rather a form of release.

For a moment, Dirk Carter even felt that Mona wanted him to be exhausted to death.

Even so.

He still did his best to cope.

By the time the sky was getting light.

The sheets in the bedroom were already in disarray.

His body was marked with some bright red bite marks and scratches.

Mona wasn't better off either.

She had no energy left, lying there like a corpse, panting heavily.

Drool unconsciously dripped from the corner of her mouth.

Looking between her legs, the land that had been ravaged repeatedly was now swollen like a bun.

"Are you okay?"

After resting for a while.

Dirk Carter got up and asked.

Mona didn't answer.

But used her arm to sit up with difficulty.

Dirk Carter wanted to help her, but she pushed him away.

She struggled and silently got dressed.

Then she looked back at Dirk Carter and said, "From now on, we're completely severed."

"Why?"

Dirk Carter asked, startled.

Mona shook her head and said, "No reason. My dad must hate you, my mom too. I can't be friends with someone they both despise. I paid you back everything I owed last night, so in the future, you take your wide road and I'll take my narrow bridge."

After saying this.

Mona opened the door and disappeared.

Dirk Carter quickly threw on his clothes and ran after her.

But unfortunately.

All he saw was Mona's back.

She had already gotten into a taxi and left.

At that moment, Dirk Carter was somewhat sad.

He hadn't expected that it would end like this.

But no matter what, he didn't regret it.

After all, the evildoers were punished, justice was served, and that's what's most important.

The breaking of the 626 case caused an uproar throughout Silverwood City.

Even more dramatic than the previous individuals dealt with.

The effect was obvious.

The previously marginalized Disciplinary Inspection Commission now became the deterrent in Silverwood City; at the mere mention of being invited for tea by the commission, there was instant panic.

From that day on, Dirk Carter gained the nickname "The Tiger-Head Guillotine" in Silverwood City.

In film and television works.

The Tiger-Head Guillotine is specifically for corrupt officials and ministers.

This shows the magnitude of the threat Dirk Carter brought.

On the third day after Doyle Paxton was taken into custody.

Silverwood City launched a special campaign against organized crime.

The crime syndicate led by Doyle Paxton was completely wiped out, greatly improving the area of Upper Lake District specifically, and Silverwood City overall.

About half a month later.

The province made big moves.

Stanley Keating resigned from his position as Deputy Secretary due to health reasons.

The highest organizational department decided to remove Ian Hughes from his position as Secretary of Novaria State Commission for Discipline Inspection, appointing him as member, standing member, Deputy Secretary of State Committee, and concurrently principal of the State Political School.

Until a new secretary arrives, Ian Hughes temporarily acts as the head of the State Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Undeniably, Ian Hughes became the biggest beneficiary after the 626 case.

On the day after Ian Hughes got promoted.

The State Committee passed a resolution.

Removed Kendrick Zane from his position as Minister of Organization of Silverwood City Committee, appointed him as member, standing member, Deputy Mayor of Silverwood City Committee.

Former Deputy Mayor of Crestwood City, Jeb Ross, was transferred to Silverwood City, to serve as member, standing member, Minister of Organization.

Former Minister of Propaganda of Aethelburg City, Howell Pace, was transferred to Silverwood City, to serve as member, standing member, Minister of Propaganda.

Undeniably, the State Committee's move this time was significant.

Three positions were altered.

Aside from Kendrick Zane, who was already part of Silverwood City.

The other two were externally appointed.

This highlights the State Committee's extreme distrust towards Silverwood City's leadership team.

It's actually not surprising.

Within the leadership team, the only two women both fell into trouble, indirectly reflecting the chaos in Silverwood City's political circles.

Of course.

There's also a curious point here.

Dirk Carter was neglected despite his accomplishments.

After solving so many cases and serving as the deputy leader of the highest inspection team, adding the recent solving of the 626 case, he should have been meritorious.

But not only wasn't he promoted, there wasn't even any public commendation.

Let's face it.

Every subtle action of the State Committee is a political indicator.

From this perspective.

The province is dissatisfied with Dirk Carter.

There's even a hint of reprimand.

It's not entirely unexpected.

After all, you just got appointed, but stirred such a commotion in Silverwood City. What about its status as a civilized city in the future? How about its image? Investment attraction?

These consequences can't be ignored.

The chaos in Silverwood City's politics similarly reflects the incompetence of Novaria State Committee.

Do state leaders not care about appearances?

Therefore, Dirk Carter, in the eyes of provincial leaders, might have already become the reckless one who sacrifices Silverwood City's interests for a higher position.

With such a reputation, getting a promotion seems unlikely.

Not only at the top.

Dirk Carter's actions also stirred grievances in Silverwood City.

First is Hadley Thorne.

He's received countless angry calls from leaders already.

As the person in charge.

With his jurisdiction repeatedly having issues, can he escape shared responsibility?

The second is Mayor Colter Hall.

Stanley Keating was initially his patron, relying on him he might have advanced further.

But now the patron has fallen.

And he once served as Stanley Keating's secretary.

Even if he did nothing, it will be difficult to get reused in the future.

With his career blocked, it's understandable there might be resentment, even beyond measure.

Besides these two heavyweight figures.

Many below also harbor a lot of animosity towards Dirk Carter.

Especially those reliant on Stanley Keating, Astrid Giles, or Alexis Lewis.

Uprooting the radish brings out the mud.

The collapse of the backbone painstakingly flattered for years, how heartbreaking that must be.

All these matters, Dirk Carter isn't blind nor deaf; he can see and hear them.

But he doesn't care.

To him, as the head of a discipline department, if he's worried about this and that, there's no way to do the job.

It's inherently a department that offends people, is it even possible for everyone to like it?

On the afternoon Stanley Keating announced his resignation.

Colter Hall knocked on Hadley Thorne's office door.

Since their opposition formed in Silverwood City, Colter Hall hasn't voluntarily sought out Hadley Thorne in a long time.

Concerning Colter Hall's proactive arrival.

Hadley Thorne wasn't surprised.

This calamity.

Colter Hall suffered the most.

Not only enduring Lane Quincy's "betrayal," but now Stanley Keating has also fallen. How couldn't he be anxious?
