I Have Awakened The Deduction System

When they heard that there was a chance to live, everyone became highly effective and efficient.

The long-bearded man had brought out a chair from the residence and came to He Chuan's side with a flattering expression.

"Your Highness, are you really going to let these people out?"

"Of course."

He Chuan glanced at him, "Who are you?"

"This subordinate is Xu Ke, the Chief of the Military Staff of Glory City. Your Highness, I went to pick you up when you came last night, have you forgotten?"

"Yes, I remember, what's the matter?"

"Forgive me for being blunt, these are the rich people of Glory City and control more than 80% of the industry resources in the city. If you let them go just like that, the city will definitely be short of resources. When that time comes..."

Xu Ke paused for a moment.

He believed that even if he did not explain clearly, the prince would understand what he was trying to say.

As long as these people were all captured, all their assets would be confiscated!

The chances of fighting against the beast tide would increase by a few points.

Although it was somewhat immoral, as long as the city was defended, it was worth it to bear this bit of blame.

In the end, He Chuan shook his head gently.

"No need, just do as I say."

"Don't touch a single cent of their assets."

"Later, get someone to lead the team and send them out."

Xu Ke was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness, I didn't hear wrongly, right? You still want to send someone to send them to Freedom City?"

Because he was too shocked, he spoke very loudly, causing the group of people, including the wealthy merchants, to look over.

He Chuan looked at him with a faint smile, "Is there a problem?"

"No... No..."

Xu Ke was instantly terrified. He didn't dare to say anything else, afraid that he would be called out to send those merchants out of the city later.

This wasn't a good thing.

If he encountered a strange beast, he would definitely die!

When the wealthy merchant heard this, he was also greatly shocked.

The people were even more astonished.

They never would have thought that the City Lord He Chuan would actually dispatch a portion of the city guards to escort them to Freedom City when the beast tide arrived.

He was the Prince!

The ruler of Glory City!

A high and mighty figure!

In this kind of crisis, shouldn't everyone be ordered to defend the city to the death to protect his interests?

Shouldn't he make an example of the others and punish anyone who dared to leave the city?

Even though everyone was in a state of panic, as long as you gave the order to strictly guard the city, who would dare to leave?

Who could leave?

The wealthy merchant sighed.

Although this new City Lord came from the royal family, his kind heart was truly rare.

In this chaotic and materialistic era, selfishness was the benchmark for everyone.

No one was willing to give up their own interests to seek the safety of others.

Today, he saw one.

Unfortunately...

After the beast tide, it will no longer exist.

Along with Glory City, which had experienced countless tribulations, it will become dust in history.

"Sigh."

The wealthy merchant sighed softly and looked at He Chuan with a hint of gratitude and regret.

...

Not long after, more than a thousand people gathered outside the City Lord's residence.

He Chuan immediately told them about the method to avoid the strange beasts.

This was a trick that had been verified by the deductive system.

Although there was no guarantee that they wouldn't be attacked by the strange beasts along the way, the safety index was definitely much higher than when they rushed all the way to Freedom City.

Everyone listened very seriously and wrote everything down with a pen and paper to prevent them from forgetting.

After he finished explaining all the details, He Chuan began to arrange for everyone to leave the city.

"If you all go out together, the commotion will be too great and it will easily alert the beast tide."

"First, split up into groups and leave the city in batches. Including the soldiers that are escorting you, each group can not exceed ten people."

"Leave the city in batches and leave at intervals. If you meet each other on the road, don't stay too long and spread out as much as possible. Act according to the method that I have taught you."

Everyone nodded.

"Alright, go back and prepare."

He Chuan looked at Xu Ke, "Go and make arrangements. Open the four city gates and let them go in different directions to divert the time."

"Yes! Your Highness!" Xu Ke received the order and left.

There were more than a thousand people outside the City Lord's mansion. In fact, including the family members, there would be even more. Perhaps it would exceed five figures.

Therefore, it was very difficult to arrange the trip. He Chuan could not handle it by himself. He needed help.

Of course, he was not idle either.

When Xu Ke went to do things, he followed him in secret to see if he had tampered with his orders.

After observing him for a period of time and seeing that he was lying on the rocking chair and doing his best to send his subordinates, He Chuan was basically certain that this person was not the crown prince's spy here.

He could trust him!

Although Glory City belonged to him, the people here did not have a good impression of him.

From the commoners to the commanders of the army that guarded the city, none of them were familiar with him.

The most important thing now was to gain the people's hearts, build a good relationship with these officials, and develop them into his trusted aides.

As for their character, he would think about it later.

The concentration of power was the most important thing.

He Chuan knew very well that he could not command this group of people just by relying on his identity as a City Lord and the title of Viscount.

He had to do something that could conquer them.

Therefore, at night, when the matter of leaving the city had come to an end, He Chuan called Xu Ke over and asked him to bring a group of people to accompany him on his patrol in the city.

It was already winter, and the cold wind was piercing to the bone.

Xu Ke wrapped his thick robe tightly and could not help but shiver.

Looking at He Chuan who was walking in front, he could not help but complain.

"Your Highness, Let's go back, it's too cold outside, your body is made of ten thousand gold. If anything happens to you in the cold, even if your subordinate dies ten thousand times, it will not be enough. There are soldiers guarding the city walls at all times. No birds nor beasts will fly into the city to hurt people."

"Are you very cold?" He Chuan asked casually.

"Yes!" Xu Ke pretended to be miserable and sniffled, "I'm almost freezing to death!"

"If you're cold, those people are even colder."

He Chuan did not look at him. His eyes stopped at a few houses that had lights, "Let's go and have a look."

Xu Ke followed reluctantly.

The house they were going to was very small and old.

A corner of the window was broken, and the wind was blowing into it.

Looking through the broken window, they saw two elderly couples huddling together in a corner, covering their bodies with straw to keep them warm.

The source of the light was a half-broken candle, which was placed on the ground next to them.

They could clearly see that they were only wearing thin clothes on their thatched bodies.

Every time the wind blew, their bodies could not help but tremble.

At this time, they could only use their hands to protect the candle. While blocking the wind, they greedily absorbed the tiny trace of heat.

He Chuan frowned deeply.

After a few seconds of silence, he left without looking back.

Xu Ke and the others quickly followed, feeling uneasy.
