I want that man (2)
After discovering this fact, Li Zhu was no longer impatient, but calmed down. After thinking about it calmly, she found that the biggest benefit of being an adjutant compared to before was knowing Jason's daily schedule.
Of course, because she has just taken office, and her official position has a prefix of "fourth" in front of her in addition to the adjutant, Li Zhu, with Li Zhu's current identity, does not dare to think about arranging a trip for Jason, which is a job exclusive to the first adjutant.
Fortunately, one of Li Zhu's daily tasks now is to deliver breakfast and lunch to Jason. Therefore, mixing some small cakes and milk tea in Jason's meals every day has become the method that Li Zhu can think of now.
Of course, as for whether to eat or not, this Li Zhu can't be sure. After all, if it's someone like Jason, even if he doesn't eat it, he won't let you find any clues.
And this insistence is another three months. In the past three months, Li Zhu and Jason have met many times, and they can count them with both hands.
Just when Li Zhu thought that her relationship with Jason had not progressed at all, when she went to work that morning, something unexpected happened to her......
As usual, Li Zhu is used to going to the studio half an hour early, sorting out yesterday's work, and then sending him to Jason's workshop early at nine o'clock.
After the work content was sorted out, Li Zhu knocked on Jason's door politely, as for why it was only courteous, it was because at this time, Jason was not in the room, so usually Li Zhu only knocked a few times, then pushed the door in and put it on the table.
Today, as usual, Li Zhu knocked on the door twice and pushed the door in, but in the crack of the gradually opening door, when he saw the general who was bent down in front of the table, the whole person's movements were dulled for a moment.
……
Perhaps disturbed by the sound of the door opening, General Jason, who was still burying his head just now, raised his gaze and looked at Li Zhu who was frozen at the door coldly.
"Come in..."
Without waiting for Li Zhu to react, he heard Jason's slightly dissatisfied voice. Was it her delusion? Li Zhu inexplicably felt that unlike the usual calm and majestic voice, there was a sense of irritability in Jason's words now.
For Jason, who has too much emotional control, there are very few times when others can hear his emotions.
Therefore, now he must be thinking about an extremely troublesome matter, Li Zhu decided to keep to himself, otherwise he would accidentally anger him, and he would have to do a few times more work to brush up his favor.
“…… General Jason, good day!" said a belated greeting, and after getting the other party's nod, Li Zhu put the early on the coffee table next to Jason's desk and set up the tableware.
However, just as she picked up the coffee in her right hand, she saw Jason get up and walk over, sitting on the sofa, a pair of tiger eyes staring at her, without the slightest intention of concealing it.
Li Zhu was shocked, and when he was thinking about what he didn't do as he wanted, he heard the other party's clear voice come coldly...
"Corporal Lee, from six to nine o'clock in the afternoon, working overtime. ”
Li Zhu paused with his hand holding the coffee, suppressed the doubts in his heart, put the cup in front of Jason steadily, and then straightened up and saluted:
"Yes, my subordinates have orders!"
"As for the content of the work... I'll have someone hand it over to you later, this time, be sure to complete the task..."Jason's tone was not so much a boss asking his subordinates to work overtime, but more an order to his own soldiers. In fact, she is now a soldier under his command herself.
……
Because she received an order in the morning, after her colleague waved goodbye to Li Zhu, she sat alone at her desk and waited for Jason to assign work.
Watching the pointer on the wall turn, Li Zhu conscientiously used the time that he had not yet received the task to alienate the content of today's work, and after sorting out some documents to be used tomorrow, he instinctively stretched out his arms and moved his muscles, and...
Then I saw a serious face standing at the door of her workshop...
“… Good afternoon, General Jason!"
Almost reflexively, he stood up and gave a standard military salute. And the pulsation in her heart that was beating wildly also seemed to affect the rapid blood circulation on her face.
The cool gaze shot out of the deep pupils looked at Li Zhu, and after sweeping her uniform, the thick sword eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and then the face like an iceberg revealed an unknown emotion.
“… Come with me..."
After Jason said three words simply, he turned around and left, no longer caring about Li Zhu. Regarding Jason's somewhat incomprehensible behavior, Li Zhu took a deep breath and got up to leave behind him.
S City Business Center, in front of the dress store:
Li Zhu looked at Jason who walked inside calmly in surprise, and couldn't help but look at his long and slender figure and the delicate women's dresses in the glass window. As if he didn't feel Li Zhu's gaze, the other party walked towards the dress store impartially, without any intention of explaining.
Obediently following Jason to the store, he saw a waiter talking to Jason enthusiastically, while the other smiled at her and walked to the door with a sign that was closed.
This posture, could it be...
"This young lady is in such a good shape, General, I recommend this black gauze lace evening dress, can I let the young lady try it?" The waiter's face smiled very thoughtfully, and his attitude could be said to be extremely sincere.
"Hmm..."After a concise word, the waiter had a smile on his face even more, and walked towards Li Zhu with his clothes.
After taking the dress handed over by the other party, Li Zhu looked down at the bold and explicit cut, and walked into the fitting room with a calm face.
This kind of unfolding similar to the plot of Taiwan made Li Zhu feel a feeling of unreality.
To be honest, she really didn't think that Jason would use the excuse of working overtime to buy a dress for her and accompany him to the dinner party as a female companion because he liked her.
If it is really this development model, then she really doesn't understand what she has done in the past three months to unconsciously brush her good feelings like this.
Could it really be because of those cake boxes and milk tea? This reason, even Li Zhu himself doesn't believe it.
Although Li Zhu didn't believe it in her heart, now she could only follow Jason's wishes. So, when she walked out of the fitting room in her gown and met Jason's gaze, this time she didn't avoid his gaze.
And in those inky black pupils, there are...
But until she entered the banquet hall wearing that black gauze and lace evening gown and holding Jason's hand, she really didn't feel any real in her heart.
Is this Shogun really...
"There will be royalty at the dinner, and according to intelligence, spies have infiltrated tonight and attempted to kill royalty. And your mission is to secretly protect the royal family until the end of the banquet. ”
After speaking concisely, Jason's eyes swept over the venue, and after briefly dealing with a few guests who came to greet him, he pulled Li Zhu to the rest place next to the venue and sat down.
About ten minutes later, a middle-aged man dressed in royal clothes came in at the gate of the venue, and after he entered the door, he saw that everyone was flocking to him and greeted him vigorously. And he stood tall with a big belly, and beckoned to everyone with a smile in two steps.
"He is the object of your mission this time, remember to only protect him in secret, not expose yourself. Jason withdrew his gaze from the middle-aged man, and his sideways eyes stopped at Li Zhu, only to retract his gaze when he saw her frowning at the man.
"Yes, my subordinates obey. ”
After Li Zhu replied to the order, Jason stopped looking at her, took the red wine handed by the waiter, and took a sip of it close to his lips. And when the waiter politely handed the wine to Li Zhu, before she refused, she heard the cold voice say:
"Go down!"
The undeniable majesty between the words made the waiter, who was already a little frightened, stunned on the spot, to be honest, everyone on the whole planet knew that this general had a transcendent status and a cold and reticent personality. Don't say that he scolds him now, I'm afraid that with just one look at him, ordinary people will be scared to lie down.
At this time, the waiter who was screamed by Jason tried to suppress the tremor on his body, and his legs retreated limply. Actually, don't say that the waiter was scared like this, Rao is Li Zhu, and he was shocked into a cold sweat just now.
I don't know if the look of surprise on Li Zhu's face was too obvious, after Jason's gaze stopped at her, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning:
“… I, it's scary?!"
I don't know if it's deliberate, Jason deliberately lowered the word "terrible", the eyebrows on his handsome face were tightly frowned, and the aura around his body exuded that no one was close to, there was really nothing that was not associated with the word "terrible".
"If a subordinate says that it is not terrible, the general must think that the subordinate is insincere and does not trust his subordinates. If his subordinates say it's terrible, the general will definitely think that his subordinates can't be used. In fact, my subordinates think that if the general really cares about whether others have such opinions about you, then I am afraid that he will not be invincible today. ”
This may be the reason why Li Zhuyi said so much to Jason, and the strange thing is that after saying this, she no longer had the same intention of observing Jason's attitude as before. Here, Jason sat straight on the side, his right hand slowly put down the red wine in his hand, and did not speak.
While the two were silent, the royal guests pushed the atmosphere of the entire banquet to the highest point. When he stood on the main seat of the banquet and took the microphone to speak to the crowd, Li Zhu saluted Jason and walked towards the crowd, looking for a place close to him, pretending to listen to his speech, while focusing on the surrounding guests to see if there was anything unusual.
Just when the middle-aged royal family on the main seat smiled and took the lead in clapping his hands to celebrate the beginning of the dinner, suddenly, the originally bright lights of the entire venue were suddenly extinguished.
Because of this sudden darkness, all the guests immediately fell into panic. Although Li Zhu knew in advance that something unexpected would happen, the sudden darkness also made her heart ring alarm bells.
After adapting to the darkness in a very short time, when he saw a figure rushing towards the main seat, Li Zhu did not hesitate at all, and quickly stepped forward and restrained the person with both hands. After his hands were tied behind Li Zhu's back, Li Zhu only felt very disobedient in his heart.
She didn't attack, this person just surrendered and captured, not so much because she was skilled in grappling, but because this person deliberately let her catch without the slightest resistance.
"You think, like this, it's over?!"
Suddenly, the assassin who was pressed under her smiled gloomily, and Li Zhu suddenly remembered what he heard other colleagues say during the day. His heart instantly contracted, and he bit the corner of his lip and put a hand on the back of his neck, and after he fainted, he immediately pushed through the crowd and ran towards Jason's place.
But when she arrived at the resting place where Jason had sat before, the tip of her nose suddenly filled with a rusty smell of blood.
“… Probably not!"
After giving birth to the idea that Jason was killed, Li Zhu's heart ached, and he tracked it in the direction of the smell of blood without thinking about it.
If Li Zhu still has a secret that Jason doesn't know, then this secret is that this body has an extremely sensitive sense of smell and blood that can heal wounds. And her sense of smell is like a drop of blood diluted ten million times in the ocean, and a shark can still perceive its location.
Li Zhu's sensitivity to blood is even greater.
So, as she ran out of the venue after the growing smell of blood in the air, the foreboding in her heart was even more serious.
Although she didn't know which force arranged the assassination, they seemed to be going to the royal family on the surface, but secretly they regarded Jason as the main target of this mission.
Because, when Jason focuses all his vigilance deployment on the royal family, the vigilance around him will be weakened. All in all, it is a strategy to use the sound of the east and the west.
……
When the tip of his nose was stimulated by the thick smell of iron, the sound of cold weapons colliding sounded in Li Zhu's ears. With a heartbeat, he took out the firearm that Jason handed him before entering the venue, and after holding the cold hilt, he found a blind spot to observe the situation in front of him.
Under the light, the three black-clad assassins did not hold their guns, but instead used daggers to fight Jason. And by the side of Jason, who was besieged, there was no help. When he threw aside the gun without bullets and took out a knife slightly longer than a dagger to fight the killer, it was obvious that he was not lightly wounded.
But now Li Zhu obviously didn't dare to act rashly, because in this many-on-one fight, it was obvious that Jason was temporarily at a disadvantage at this time. And those three people can attack Jason while also guarding the surrounding situation, if she rushes out, I am afraid that instead of saving Jason, it will cause the two of them to fall into trouble.
Just as Li Zhu was looking for a breakthrough, he only heard one of the three people say: "Hmph, you destroyed our planet, have you ever thought that one day you would be killed by a fish that slipped through the net?!"
The killer's voice was cold to the bone, because it was covered by a cloth, so that people could not see the emotions on his face. But just thinking from his words at the moment, he can guess that his face is probably full of hideous colors at this moment.
In response to the killer's question, Jason just leaned against the wall, a pair of dark eyes stared straight at the three people around him, his thin lips opened lightly, and his voice was also cold:
“… Back when I became a warrior on this planet, death was already part of my daily practice. Do you think I can't see through your intentions to capture me alive?!"
When they heard Jason say this, the three killers were stunned on the spot, and their eyes were full of shock and disbelief.
"Soldiers regard sacrifice as the highest glory, and I should say, is this something that you dirty killers in the dark can never understand?!"
After saying this, Jason took a black orb from his arms. At this time, not only the three of them, but even Li Zhu couldn't stop being surprised when he saw the small ball.
It was a miniature grenade, and the explosive power was so amazing that if Jason really pulled the grenade, I was afraid that at this time, either he or the three people who were too close to him would be killed here.
"You're crazy!"
After exclaiming this sentence, the faces of the three people present were full of horror and quickly moved away from Jason. But as they retreated into the distance, Jason's face curled slightly...
That's right, Li Zhu was sure that he hadn't missed it, this was the first time Jason had laughed, or the first time she had seen him laugh.
……
"Bang!"
Less than twenty meters back from the trio, they hadn't even been able to escape the venue, and the flames and deafening explosions had wiped out their lives.
“… Ignorance... Hmm!Sazzo, I'm at West Park 318 and I'm injured... Well, call the doctor..."
Jason covered his wound and groaned, took a memory card from his arms, and held it in his hand again.
"If it weren't for the memory card... Hmph!"
Even if he didn't say the next sentence, Li Zhu knew it at the moment. Jason did not hesitate to fight them alone, and even got injured, in order to get the memory card in his hand from them.
It seems that this time she doesn't seem to have the opportunity to appear to brush up on her presence...
Thinking like this, Li Zhu got up and was about to leave secretly, but he heard that violent and painful moan in his ears!
“… Well, it's so thoughtful that you actually poisoned it! Hmm, cough, cough!"
Ignoring anything else, Li Zhu ran towards Jason almost instinctively, the smell of blood on the tip of his nose became stronger and stronger, and the source was from the unconscious man in front of her.
Half-kneeling, he reached out to check the injuries on Jason's body, and sure enough, even if it was to get something, the injuries on his body were really serious.
Ignoring anything else, Li Zhu took the dagger from his hand, stretched out his left hand and slashed it with the blade in his palm, and the bright red blood dripped like a spring, scattering on the wounds on Jason's body. However, if she had been more careful, she would have noticed that when she took the dagger from Jason's hand, his slender fingertips moved unnaturally.
Seeing that the last big wound healed automatically because of the blood, Li Zhu clenched his left hand into a fist, pinched his wrist with his right hand, and after feeling someone quickly approaching, he found a place to hide.
Next, there is the scene where Sazo leads the doctor to remove Jason from the coma. After waiting for the group of them to leave, Li Zhu returned to the venue and asked for some bandages to treat the wound in his palm.
Because Jason was injured and unconscious, and the royal family member was not harmed, this banquet can only be said to have ended without a problem under the evacuation of Sazo. But what Li Zhu didn't expect was that this incident would become a reason for Jason to uncover another war three months later.
Time flashed, and a month later, Jason launched a war against the planet K-18. The reason, of course, was the assassination that took place at the banquet three months earlier. In fact, the K-18 is a pedal for the HS-36 to conquer this galaxy.
So, even without this assassination, it would only delay Jason's attack on K-18.
Because Li Zhu's position is not enough to be among the entourage, she can only be in the office, continuing to worry about how to brush General Gao Jason's favor. Because, the time given by the task is only five months, and until now, without the need for a system prompt, she knows that Jason's good opinion of her is really not even five stars.
However, many times the turning point will come inadvertently. Like, now...
"What you say is true?!"
Li Zhu looked at Sazo who had just returned to the base with a stunned face, he no longer had the soft smile he used to have, and he didn't have time to trim the stubble.
"Well, Jason's Red Lotus 1 was ambushed by the enemy and crashed on the Lost Planet, and I searched for five days without hearing from him. ”
Wrong!
Jason is not dead!
If he dies, then Li Zhu will receive a punishment notice from the system. But since Sazzo said that he disappeared from the crash, I am afraid that it is only a disappearance and not a death.
"Admiral Sazo, can you let me participate in the search for General Jason's team?" Li Zhujiao clasped his hands, his brows furrowed tightly, his face was full of serious expressions, and his determination could not be doubted.
And when Sazo saw the resoluteness flowing in her eyes, he just shook his head and frowned and sighed:
"As a result of General Mulder's report, the royal side has withdrawn the search for Jason. Now, all of the planet's combat power has been thrown into another battlefield by Mulder, who has taken the place of Jason. ”
After Sazuo replied with a sad face, Li Zhu was just stunned on the spot.
Who is Mulder?
If there is a military man with the most power on this planet besides Jason, it is Mulder.
The two are extremely talented in military affairs, and they both come from the same general's command. The two were supposed to be two brothers, but they often quarreled over the tactics they used to implement because of political and strategic disagreements.
Yes, Mulder can be said to be Jason's opponent, and he ...... old enemy!
Even if he doesn't know what was written in Mulder's report to the royal family, it is not difficult for Li Zhu to imagine that the war with the K-18 had just begun, and the commander disappeared, and the royal family should not spend a lot of effort to search for Jason's traces, but should reactivate Deputy Field Marshal Mulder and continue to capture K-18.
"Admiral Sazo, I see... Thank you, subordinates... Retire..."
After saluting Sazuo respectfully, Li Zhu returned to his post with his head bowed slightly.
Now Jason has been missing for five days, and the place where he disappeared is the lost planet full of strange beasts. Even though she knew he wasn't dead, the royal family wouldn't believe her. Therefore, even if she asks for someone to search and rescue again, I am afraid that the request report will only be pressed on the table by the royal family.
Rather than this, it is better for her to act alone. After finalizing his mind, Li Zhu drew up a plan in his heart...
……
That night, when the guards guarding outside the mecha hangar had finished their shifts, a young soldier looked up at the dark color of the zenith and couldn't help but glance at the neon lights in the center of the city in the distance.
However, just as he lost his mind, there was a swishing sound from the door of the warehouse behind him, and before he could even react, he saw the Red Lotus No. 3 fighter almost brushing against him.
