I followed Liu Linlin out of the station, got into a two-wheeled carriage, and headed straight for the city.

Liu Linlin didn't smile all the way, just stared straight ahead and drove the carriage seriously. I turned my head to the side and began to look at the city.

The overall feeling here is like going back to when I was a kid. If I had to make a comparison, it was a bit like the Chinese cities I saw in the seventies and eighties from the movies and TV series, the only difference is that there are only horse-drawn carriages on the streets, not cars.

Yes, the wide streets, the tall shade trees on both sides of the streets, the square-shaped five- or six-storey red brick buildings on both sides of the road, and the various flat-roofed, spired-topped and domed buildings that do not know what style or function they have, seem to tell me that this is a place of magical realism, mixed with classical and modern, orderly and chaotic, calm and crazy.

Most of the pedestrians on the street, young and old, wore uniforms similar to those of Rodno and Xiao Yunni, but with some different colors. A small number of young women and children are a little brighter in color, but still only dark red or dark green.

And from their uncolorful clothes, hurried steps, especially the frowning brows and grim faces of most people, I thought that I had arrived in a country of power and autocracy.

But think about it, there is an emperor in the Kingdom of God, I remember that when Taoyuan and Qingfeng were in Taoyuan, Tao Ranzhi and Cheng Gongjin had some yearning for the imperial system of the Kingdom of God. Then the people of the Divine Kingdom that I came into contact with, whether it was Tao Yaoyao, Yulara or You Bingkun, all showed contempt for the people and things in the fairyland, and reflected their own super high sense of superiority everywhere.

This sense of superiority can only come from the environment in which they live, the cultural education they receive, or their strong confidence in the group they belong to, or their own strength.

The carriage stopped in front of a quaint red-brick three-story building, and I got out of the carriage and saw a sign in front of the door, except for a sun badge, a row of small black letters: Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of God.

As soon as he walked into the building similar to the human realm tube building, Liu Linlin greeted a middle-aged man with a majestic appearance and said, "Second Chief Sun, the person has received it." “

After saying that, he stood sideways to the side.

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Xu Jinyue, hello, I am Sun Hongwei, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Divine Kingdom and Director of the Department of Divine Realm Affairs. “

I stretched out my hand and shook it with him, and said with a smile: "Hello Second Chief Sun, I'm Xu Jinyue." “

Sun Hongwei smiled kindly and said, "We have received a report from the Jalaso Screening Station, in view of the credentials you submitted...... Well, Breez is not actually a country, so it's impossible for us to position you as an ambassador of Breeze, let alone establish any level of diplomatic relations with Breez or its Rising Sun. Do you understand what I say?"

I smiled and nodded, in fact this result was already expected by me.

"However, because your remarks at the screening station in Jalaso triggered Article 321 of the Divine Resident Control Act, we feel it is necessary to ask you to come and find out whether to transfer you to the Ministry of Ideology and Politics for further screening. “

Sun Hongwei said to me with a smile.

I smiled, "Resident Control Act", "Ideological and Political Department", just listening to this name made me further affirm the view of the kingdom of God that I had seen and heard on the road when I came.

The use of power and the Iron Curtain to control people's thoughts and actions is not uncommon in the history of the human world. What's more, the Kingdom of God is still an imperial state.

He immediately nodded again, and smiled at the few young men and women who walked past us and were looking at me strangely, then turned his head and spread his hand to Sun Hongwei and said, "Then where should I go now?"

As if he had just discovered that we were still in the hall on the first floor, Sun Hongwei hurriedly stretched out his hand sideways, made a "please" gesture, and said to me, "Excuse me, please come with me." ”

As he spoke, he said to Liu Linlin: "Xiao Liu, go get busy." ”

Liu Linlin saluted Sun Hongwei, turned around and walked towards the corridor next to him.

Following Sun Hongwei to the innermost room on the third floor, Sun Hongwei stood at the door, raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, and said, "Minister, Xu Jinyue is here." ”

"Enter. A calm voice came from the room.

Sun Hongwei pushed open the door and said to me sideways, "Mr. Xu, please come in." ”

After I walked in, Sun Hongwei didn't move. I turned my head to look, but found that Sun Hongwei did not follow up, but stood outside the door and gently closed the door.

Turning around, I realized that I was in a standard office.

The room was not very large, and facing the door was a desk, behind which sat an old man with gray hair, holding his glasses in one hand and a piece of paper in the other, looking at it seriously.

"Sit down, please wait. ”

The old man said.

Behind him was a window with a pot of flowers on the sill. Sunlight shone in from behind the window, casting a golden halo over the old man.

I sat down in the chair in front of my desk, crossed my legs, and looked left and right for a long time.

The four walls of the room are white, and there are bookshelves on the left and right, and the shelves are filled with books of different sizes. There is a door on the left and right sides, and I don't know what the room inside is for.

I looked back at the door, and there were two sofas and a small coffee table near the door, on which was a small fish tank, and in the fish bowl were two small black fish that looked fierce and vicious, shaking their heads and tails and swimming happily.

"Oh, I'm sorry. “

I turned around, and the old man had already put down the paper in his hand and was looking at me while placing his glasses on the table.

"I'm James Drey, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of God, you can't call me Drey, my friends call me that. “

Dre said to me with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Xu Jinyue. I bowed slightly, and said with the same smile.

He nodded, indicating that he understood, and then said, "I heard that you don't believe in God?"

I was slightly stunned, but I still smiled and said, "I don't believe in ghosts either." ”

He smiled again, and then said, "You have a wonderful discussion of civilization and barbarism at the Jalaso screening station, so I think you should be asked to talk to you alone." ”

I was slightly stunned.

I thought the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had called me because of my identity as a Fairyland Proton, but it turned out to be because of what he said to Rodno at the Jalaso screening station.

As if seeing my confusion, he added, "Our kingdom of God has believed in God for millions of years. ”

I nodded and said, "I understand." ”

He said, "Of course, we generally don't ask for protons in Wonderland. Because their identification with the kingdom of God will be ...... in the ordinary process"

He paused, as if remembering something, and explained, "It's the training of the labor study class and the three-month internship period after entering the society of the kingdom of God. During this time, they will identify with our God and understand His care for us. “

I smiled and shrugged noncommittally.

Those who can be selected as protons in the fairyland must be the children of the family.

For these young people, it is normal to suddenly enter an unfamiliar environment, which does seem to be a little more advanced than the environment in which they used to live, so it is normal to give up the education and thinking they have received in the past and devote themselves to new ideas.

New ideas, new life, "Mr. De" and "Mr. Sai", positive energy!

I don't think so, these people used to have a general name for them when I was in the human world, that is: earth fish.

Seeing my disapproving expression, Dre smiled and said, "Of course, you are different, you have the right to laugh at them in your heart. “

I smiled and didn't deny it. This old man is a human spirit, and his judgment of people's thoughts and behaviors is extremely accurate, very similar to the secretaries I met when I was young, when I was working in a state-owned enterprise.

"What's different about me?"

I asked with a faint smile.

Dre smiled and said, "You are an immortal cultivator, so judging your age by your appearance makes me seem ignorant and ridiculous. This is one of them. “

I kept smiling, staring at him without saying a word, equally indifferent to the slight noise in the small door on the left.

Dre continued: "Second, you are very well-mannered, which means that you have received a good education and have considerable experience. This is very different from the people in the two realms of immortals and gods I know. “

I continued to sit upright and watched him judge me.

"Third, you are very attractive, whether it is in appearance, in terms of conversation, or in your behavior, you are not annoying. In addition, only with a wealth of knowledge can you produce that discourse of civilization and barbarism, so this proves that you are a thinking person. “

Speaking of this, he put away his smile, bowed down, and said with a little seriousness: "This is the charm of thought. “

Hearing this, I was already a little impatient in my heart, but I still maintained a calm tone and asked, "So, what are you going to do with me?"

He closed his mouth, straightened up and looked at me, and suddenly laughed.

I smiled and waited for his answer.

After laughing a few times, he said: "I should have sent you to the Ideological and Political Department for ideological transformation, but I have some appreciation for your talent, so I think it is better to follow the arrangement of the Ministry of Labor and Education, and you should go for a resident internship first." ”

I nodded in acceptance and asked, "What if after three months, I can't become a full resident?"

Dre was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Then you can't stay in the kingdom of God." ”

He looked at me and was still unmoved, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Of course, you can't go back to Wonderland." Because Proton has to stay for at least three years, we'll make arrangements for you. ”

I smiled in my heart, but it was just the exile of God's forsaken land, and if I could really go there, I would like to try to find a way back to the human world. “

Look at Dre again, he's already buried in writing a note.

After writing, he handed me the note and said with a smile, "I'll open a back door for you so you can play to your strengths." “

I took the note and read it, and there were a few words written on it: I recommend a cultural career.

His name is signed on the back, James Drey.

I stood up with a smile and reached out as I said, "Okay, thank you!"
