Chapter 377 New Year
Entering the new year, new weather has indeed appeared.
The world has undoubtedly become chaotic.
Too many events, large and small, occurred in the United States of Eureka the year before, but most of them were not resolved satisfactorily. In this case, it led to more subsequent situations, which in turn affected the whole world.
At least, Matatek, where Annan is located, has been affected in many ways because of its proximity to Eureka.
For example, the transportation company run by Annan's uncle Mark also lost some job opportunities due to the turmoil of these events.
Another example is that the teacher of Annan’s classmate is also Professor Duran’s friend Garev. Zapat, who was originally scheduled to go to the Higher School of Magic in Eureka for cooperation and research, has also been delayed due to the political situation, and may even have to cancel it.
Annan has no interest in politics, but there is no doubt that the aftermath of these major events has hit him, a humble citizen.
"It's obviously a matter in another country, but it unknowingly affects the whole world."
The United States of Eureka has always been the world's leading power, with various cooperation and transactions with all over the world. Their internal changes are difficult to deal with in a short time, and will naturally affect many places.
Even some aspects that were originally thought to be completely unrelated will eventually show related effects in different forms.
"The new president has not been elected so soon. Although the vice president is temporarily handling state affairs on his behalf, there has always been an impact and change."
The cause of death of the previous president of Eureka has been determined to be a sudden heart problem, not an assassination or any conspiracy.
However, even if this matter has been concluded, it does not mean that there will be no impact.
It seems that many people like conspiracy theories regardless of their status.
In other words, you want to make a fuss about conspiracy theories.
"Originally, the northern part of Eureka, which was originally said to break up peacefully next year, at the beginning of this year, has not successfully seceded. The sudden death of the previous president has caused too many implications."
Annan currently has few channels for understanding the detailed situation of Eureka, but even if he only collects some sporadic information, he can be sure that the atmosphere there is quite sinister.
"So, is it really the Fire Witch's conspiracy?"
When the previous president Eureka suffered a heart attack and died, the Fire Witch was not at the scene or even nearby. She was continuously hunted by the White Knight, and she probably did not have any time to carry out related assassination planning.
However, even if the Fire Witch did not do it herself, or has no direct relationship with her, it does not mean that it was not her doing.
It sounds contradictory, but if there are actually some people who secretly join forces with the Fire Witch, then it makes sense.
"It's just speculation without evidence. White knights don't dare to draw random conclusions. It will only add fuel to the already chaotic situation over there and make it even more chaotic."
Stargazer Munch is providing Annan with the latest news. Wright, try to comment on this matter in a neutral manner.
The family behind Munch has a deep relationship with Eureka. If there is too much turmoil in this country, their family will definitely suffer heavy losses, which forces them to continue to pay attention to changes in things and the latest news. .
Munch, who was left abroad as his family's insurance, would receive relevant first-hand information quickly to avoid misjudgment due to late information.
Unfortunately, the Wright family is just a very wealthy investment family, and their development direction is not in the political arena. Their relevant influence is limited, and they are powerless to know more confidential information.
"In short, it is certain that the Fire Witch is still in Eureka, and the White Knight is also pursuing her relentlessly. The White Knight has not really intervened in Eureka's political situation so far, and they probably don't want to do so. And they don’t have the ability to reverse these political changes.”
The White Knights have always been an international anti-black magic organization, and their abilities are always limited in the face of such international events.
The only thing they can do now is to arrest the escaping Fire Witch and try to use the identity of the Black Witch to intervene in the matter and prevent a worse situation from happening.
If all the responsibility can be put on the Fire Witch, maybe some changes can really be caused.
"To avoid civil war? The White Knight is really working hard."
Annan naturally understood why the white knight was so desperate.
Although the northern forces of Eureka have not yet completely separated, they are already in harmony with the south. They originally agreed to officially break up peacefully this year, but the sudden death of the previous president caused various problems.
In addition, some southern forces do not want the north to secede. They are working secretly to prevent this fact that has already been established.
If this continues, a civil war is really possible in Eureka, and the possibility of a fight between the north and the south is very high.
It would be okay if it was just a civil war within one country, but Eureka's influence in the world is too great, and it may trigger further events and turn into a new world war.
Annan estimated that the top management of the White Knights should think so, so they need to catch the Fire Witch immediately. As long as they can catch this key figure, no matter how unreasonable, they can throw the blame to the Fire Witch and cool down the situation a little. An unexplainable situation.
"I don't want to take care of these troublesome things, and I don't have the ability to take care of them. However, I might be implicated accidentally. The Fire Witch obviously has some interest in me. If she takes advantage of me unknowingly, she will also I don’t know if I can detect it.”
If Annan could, he just wanted to be an ordinary melon-eater, but it was impossible for him to escape. Even if this matter had nothing to do with him, he might still be dragged away.
"Obviously I still have a lot of things to worry about here. If the Fire Witch really comes to cause trouble, there seems to be no other way. The only way is to flood the water with the troops."
Annan can only try his best to prepare for himself, because he doesn't know how the future will develop. He hopes that nothing he thinks or worries about will happen, but it is better not to have any unrealistic expectations. .
"The identity of a tyrant is a big problem."
Annan has not met any other current tyrants so far, whether they are new or old.
The status of the gatekeeper of the college was too special to be counted among the tyrants.
"If there are other tyrants in this world, the Fire Witch's interest may be diverted. That is, are there really other people like me now?"
