Part 1: The Hidden of Cora Chapter 18: A Belated Birthday Party (1)
"Your plan was seen through, and Song Yuan was rescued by Stuart. ”
The office of the head of the top floor of the Hidden Fog East Slav Branch was in shambles, with precious porcelain and valuable decorations smashed to pieces, which shows how angry the owner of this office really is.
"You're pushing me into the fire pit, and if Stuart knows that I'm behind all this, even the Council of Elders won't be able to protect me!"
Zhou Jinyu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the only place that had not been affected, leaning against the window and looking out.
"I'm talking to you!" Ivanov burst into a rage, picked up a crystal cup and threw it over.
Zhou Jinyu dodged the crystal cup sideways, and the crystal cup grazed Zhou Jinyu's shoulder and smashed against the wall behind him, shattering to the ground.
Zhou Jinyu glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and in just twenty minutes, Ivanov had smashed all the decorations in this office.
He regretted working with this fool a little, but he didn't have a choice. To accomplish his plan, he must cooperate with this fool who is powerful in the Duchy of Eastern Slavia.
"Have your people been exposed?" Zhou Jinyu asked.
"No, the killer I hired on the dark web with a fake identity didn't leave a tail. ”
"Listen, what happened last night has nothing to do with you," Zhou Jinyu patted Ivanov on the shoulder, "You send someone to contact Song Yuan as the host of the party." ”
"What do you want to do?"
"Since Plan A has failed, then proceed to Plan B, find a way to get him to agree to cooperate with your East Slav Branch, and then open the Kola Deep Well. ”
"Now guarding the deep well of Kola is the East Slavic party army, and their commander is Vladimir, Stuart's apprentice. Ivanov hesitated for a moment, "It's impossible for us to bypass him and enter the Kola well." ”
"Then enter the deep well of Kola in the bright light, you only need to win over Long Yuan's people, and I will be responsible for the rest. Zhou Jinyu said lightly, "This is what we have said before we cooperated." ”
"I hope so, and if you fail again this time, you will be left with your life. Ivanov looked at Zhou Jinyu coldly and turned to leave.
"Leave my life behind...... Hope you can wait until that day......"
After Ivanov left, Zhou Jinyu glanced at the surveillance camera in the corner, and silently took out his mobile phone, "Raven, prepare to act." ”
In the training ground of the Murmansk military base, Song Yuan sweated like rain on sandbags, and he had locked himself here for a full twenty hours since he came back last night.
Punch after punch, without any skill, each punch was powerful and heavy.
The iron chains that hung the sandbags swayed back and forth in the air, and every time Song Yuan threw a punch, the iron chains creaked.
Finally, Song Yuan's feet softened, and he hit the reverberating sandbag head-on, and he lay on the ground on all fours, gasping for breath.
"Punishing yourself in a way that borders on self-harm is not a wise choice. The footsteps came from far to near, Song Tianlin squatted beside Song Yuan, and touched the red mark on Song Yuan's head with some distress, "You should start with simple training, instead of using your body's advantages, too strong muscle strength will damage your ligaments." ”
"Why?" muttered Song Yuan.
Song Tianlin was stunned for a moment and did not speak.
He understood what Song Yuan wanted to ask, but he couldn't say.
Although as Song Yuan's father, he should be honest with his son, but some things can't be explained clearly in a few words, and sometimes he can't help himself.
"There are some things that when you grow up, you will understand that the world is not as simple as you think. Song Tianlin sat cross-legged beside Song Yuan, showing a smiling face, "Inas's operation went well, the bullet did not hurt the internal organs, and it is estimated that she will be alive again in two days." ”
"Why did she choose to save me in the first place?" Song Yuan closed his eyes and recalled the scene in the banquet hall, Inas had a chance to dodge the bullets, but she chose to save herself in the first place.
What kind of person thinks of others first when they encounter danger?
Close relatives...... Wife...... Perhaps an extremely important person.
Song Yuan thought that he was not familiar with Inas to the point where he could let Inas sacrifice his life to save himself, and he had seen Inas's ability in Gaufein Castle, even Chen Mo's wind blade she could block, but she couldn't stop a bullet?
"The people in the banquet hall ...... It's not an anomaly, I think Stuart should have told you that anomalies are not allowed to use abilities in front of ordinary people, this is a rule, and it is also an iron law. Song Tianlin raised Song Yuan's arm and gently massaged it.
"Would you rather pay with your life for this?"
"Think of how many people in this world have sacrificed their lives for a certain rule, not in stereotype, but in awe. Song Tianlin said, "The existence of aliens in this world is a secret, if you want to use the ability in front of ordinary people because your life is threatened, although it may save your life, but this secret may be revealed." There is no impermeable wall in this world, and the only way to keep secrets from being revealed is to stop the wind at the source. ”
"Dad, I don't seem to have any powers. Song Yuan spoke.
"Stuart told me that not having an ability might not be a bad thing. Song Tianlin lifted Song Yuan's other arm and continued to massage, "Do you think that an alien has no abilities, just like a tiger has no claws and can't do anything?"
"Do you know Preston?" Song Yuan paused, "It's that strong man with a huge name." ”
"Of course I know, we've fought each other," Song Tianlin said after a moment's thought, "and his fighting skills are far beyond the average outlier. I'm no match for him without using an ability. ”
"He told me that he can be an ordinary person in an alien world, and I have no reason to waste firewood as an alien," Song Yuan sighed, "But I always feel that he is not right, isn't it because of his ability that he is called alien?"
"I understand what you mean," Song Tianlin understood, "I remember that I told you a story about climbing a mountain before. ”
Song Yuan nodded, he couldn't remember the specific story clearly, it was basically that the people at the bottom of the mountain fantasized about what kind of scenery the people standing on the mountainside would see, and the people standing on the mountainside fantasized about what kind of scenery the group of people standing on the top of the mountain would see.
"There are strong and weak abilities, but it doesn't mean that a different ability can determine the life of this alien, just like Preston, he is just an ordinary person, when he first entered the organization, almost everyone felt that he only entered the alien world by virtue of Stuart's relationship, but from now on, everyone in the organization will no longer despise him, which is his most valuable place, and to do this, he must constantly challenge himself, break through the physiological limits of ordinary people, to do this, it is not easy to do this. ”
Song Tianlin bowed his head, "The ability can be the capital of an alien rampant in the alien world, and at the same time, it may also be a shackle to clamp the alien, from "Alien Tales", there are very few aliens who can break through this shackle, because they rely too much on their own abilities. ”
"This may be the test that God gives you, although you don't have a strong ability, but you also don't have the shackles that bind you, your future is limitless, but there may be countless thorns on this road, countless forks in the road, how to go, it depends on you. ”
"Get up, your mother specially prepared your favorite sauce bones for you, I haven't seen you for three years, she misses you very much. Song Tianlin pulled up Song Yuan, "Don't cry with a sad face, today is a very important day." ”
"Do you think I can still smile at what you just said?"
Song Tianlin was stunned, "Which sentence?"
"You said my mom made sauce bones. Song Yuan rolled his eyes.
Song Yuan's mother Su Ru belongs to the kind of Jiangnan woman who "looks like the moon on the edge of the border, and the frost and snow on her wrists", although she can go to the hall, she can't go to the kitchen, and Song Yuan's perception of her mother's cooking skills from childhood to Song Yuan is probably the burning stove, the smoke in the house, and the blackened food.
Pushing open the door of the training room, Song Yuan shuddered, he was still wearing the evening dress that Preston had prepared for him, but his well-groomed hairstyle was soaked with sweat and drooped in front of his forehead, looking a little depressed.
Song Tianlin took off the windbreaker on his body and put it on Song Yuan, "I just sweated, don't catch a cold." ”
The seemingly redundant move made Song Yuan's heart warm, and it felt good to have his parents by his side!
The long swing of the trench coat swept the snow, Song Yuan and Song Tianlin walked across the frozen lake, and came to the door of the suite prepared for them at the Murmansk military base, this suite is in the center of the military branches, where even the Hidden Fog East Slav Branch is difficult to infiltrate, so there is no need to worry about Song Yuan's identity being revealed.
Song Yuan stopped.
Song Tianlin looked at his son, thinking that he was cowardly in his hometown, "Don't let your mother wait for a long time." ”
"Why don't we go out to eat?" Song Yuan turned his head to look at Song Tianlin.
"Your mother has been working hard to learn cooking skills recently, give her a chance?" Song Tianlin frowned, he couldn't understand why young people nowadays always like to run outside.
In his opinion, no matter how good the things outside are, they can't compare to the meals made by his parents, even if it is a simple bowl of Yangchun noodles, although the taste is poor, but it is a feeling.
Song Yuan pointed to the sky, Song Tianlin raised his head, and the window on the second floor of the suite was emitting billowing smoke, and the fire could be faintly seen, which seemed to be the location of the kitchen.
Song Tianlin silently gave a thumbs up, "Wise decision!"
The door of the suite was kicked open, and the smoke in the room seemed to be frightened, and drifted into the distance under the cold wind.
The smoke alarmed the sentinels on the Murmansk watchtower, and the rapid and sharp sirens sounded throughout the base, and soldiers in dark green vests shouldered their guns and urgently assembled, thinking that there was an enemy attack.
Song Yuan and Song Tianlin stood aside quite tacitly, saying that they had nothing to do with what happened here.
A figure ran out of the smoke, it was Inas.
She was now quite embarrassed, like a miner who had just finished her job from the mine, and her whole face was disgraced.
"What are you doing in a daze, fighting fires!"
