The district mayor of the 11th District discussed with his confidants for a long time but nothing came out of it. They only ended the discussion on a sour note and left hastily.
The district mayor watched as everyone left his office. Then, he let out a deep forlorn sigh. That sigh essentially encompassed the frustration, anger, and helplessness about the situation at hand.
The district mayor's chief secretary, Diyi, asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
The district mayor gave a bitter smile. "The longer we stay here, the more I feel lost."
Diyi didn't reply when he heard this. Instead, the muscles on his cold face just twitched uncontrollably.
"You feel it too?" The district mayor looked at the peaceful grassland outside his window with a stern face. The sun was still bright but inside, his heart was cold, cold as the coming winter.
