Translated by XephiZ

The election in Dingcheng was officially held. The tricks that politicians used were quite similar to celebrities. They did not really have a lot of admirers, so they had to hire a group of people to pretend to be their supporters with huge banners and signs, resulting in massive traffic congestion for the pedestrians and vehicles on the roads. It felt like they were being supported by the whole world.

Councilman Nan was a prime example. It did not matter if the people were not supporting him. It did not cost him much to hire a group of people to pretend to be his supporters. When he walked up the stairs to the Rock Sword Pagoda, he did not forget to smile humbly at the crowd like a celebrity walking on a red carpet, telling the crowd not to cheer so much for him.

"Who's that guy?"
