AFTER CERES DIED IV

The news of someone trying to kill the mayor and his councilors spread far and wide. Others expressed concern because of the number of casualties, but when they knew the identities of those who died and those who were critically injured, the citizens snorted and snickered at their misfortunes. Except for their families and friends, the public wasn't really bothered by the situation. 

"Why is the mayor not dead, yet? Whoever tried to kill them, he or she should have made sure that this leech died." 

"Whoever did this, I'm thankful for you." 

"I heard the mayor was sniped." 

"It was said that the mayor was involved in illegal trading and was not able to keep his end of the bargain." 

"I thought it has something to do with drugs that his son used to deal with."
