Chapter 674: One Movement and One Silence

West Virginia, a country club. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After Barbara said a few rudenesses, she walked to the lounge on the side of the porch with a martini, and saw Phoebe sitting by the fireplace, wearing a dark blue evening dress and a black fox skin shawl, and immediately smiled: "So you are here." ”

Phoebe shrugged, "Hey, Barbara. ”

Barbara walked up to Phoebe, glanced at the high-backed chair across from Phoebe, put her glass above the fireplace, and said, "It seems that those people are really interested in you." ”

Phoebe shrugged her shoulders again and said, "Someone probably asked you how to approach me, right?" ”

"Hehe~" Barbara nodded, glanced at Phoebe again, sat down on the chair opposite Phoebe, and asked, "How many people have been here?" ”

Phoebe shrugged her shoulders again and said, "Eleven." ”

Barbara raised her eyebrows and nodded, "It seems that our status has really improved, and only eleven of them have come." ”

Phoebe smiled and asked, "What about you?" ”

"It's a little more than before, but there is also a relationship between me taking the initiative to attack, so I can't count it." Barbara also laughed, and then leaned closer to Phoebe and whispered, "There are many women who pretend not to know and come to me to inquire about Ebron. Hehe. ”

"Is it fun?" Phoebe shook her head.

Barbara shook her head and said, "Well, well, I would definitely find it fun to have the opportunity to participate in this level of drinking party before, but now it's not." After saying that, Barbara added: "Actually, most people don't think that this wine will be anything good, but everyone knows that this will be much more important than those so-called celebrity drinks or something, as long as they are invited, they will come." ”

Phoebe nodded and said, "Well, I know that." ”

Barbara smiled again: "I met Troy, he wanted to drink alone, but someone always went to talk to him, and he also said that he was deceived by the eldest sister, so he shouldn't come, hehe." ”

Phoebe smiled and said, "I found that the men in both of our families don't seem to have much talent in politics. ”

Barbara nodded, "That's right." ”

Phoebe said again: "Who have you seen?" ”

Barbara smiled: "Four Ministry of Defense, two Army, four Navy, seven Air Force, hehe, the Air Force seems to have settled on us, and there are some corners and corners." ”

Phoebe wondered: "The army is so inactive, aren't the test results of the training ground in the new city all out?" ”

"Don't forget, it was people from Delta and the Secret Service who took part in the test, and it is estimated that someone deliberately blocked intelligence from the army and navy." Barbara shrugged.

Phoebe nodded and said, "Well, that's right, the army has been oppressed all year round." ”

Barbara added, "By the way, you've decided to sit here tonight?" ”

"Do you want me to go out and find someone to drink and talk to?" Phoebe wondered.

Barbara smiled: "I'm here to rest with you for a while, and I have to deal with the scene after the break, but as soon as I leave, it is estimated that many girls will come to you, and they will do more boldly than those men who call themselves gentlemen." ”

"Hah...... What a hassle......"

Barbara suddenly giggled, and after a while, she said: "Okay Phoebe, your current status, you shouldn't be rewarded and you don't dare to say anything, don't you see that there are some people like you who have found a corner to sit and sit without moving, and there are not many people who are qualified to sit down and rest at this cocktail party." ”

"Well, I know, you said it at the beginning."

Barbara said again: "Besides, how many women are there from the ones who came to you just now?" ”

Phoebe said: "It's all men. You don't have to explain to me why so many women come to me all the time, I understand. ”

Barbara smiled: "What I want to say is that they are different from the men who came to you before, and the people who came before have made progress even if they have reported their names in front of you, these women are different, and I am afraid that they will really do something to you when the time comes." ”

Phoebe shrugged and said, "Don't worry, I won't make a fool of them." ”

Barbara nodded, and began to observe the furnishings in the room again, and Phoebe said, "What are you going to say without a bug?" ”

Barbara then said: "In addition to the few people with military backgrounds in the family, there are a few who ask me if I can jointly develop an operating system with them, I don't know much about this matter, so I will ask you." ”

"Oh? Who is it? ”

Barbara leaned in close to Phoebe again and said, "It's the people from the industrial capital side, but I think it's more likely that they want us to join the new technology system they support so that we can fight against the financial capital side." ”

Phoebe nodded slowly, groaned for a while, and said, "I'm not interested." Did the family involved in Onclaude encourage this? ”

Barbara was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's it, I understand." ”

Phoebe said again: "I'm still wondering, it's been almost three weeks since the news of the actual combat training base in Xincheng came out, why hasn't anyone come to talk to us yet, it turns out that these people want to use this drinking party to isolate those fish and pearls, well, interesting." ”

Barbara nodded, agreeing with Phoebe's analysis. Then he said: "By the way, I have to tell you one more thing, some people, after we clean up the transgressors, have to trace down their family's behavior, a little disgusted, mainly because they feel that the movement is a bit big, and suggest that we don't always track down the whereabouts of other people's families, well, it will cause trouble for others." ”

Phoebe shrugged her shoulders and said, "That's how our style is, I probably can't change it." ”

Barbara laughed, "Phoebe, they mean let's not throw the trouble to the police. ”

Phoebe first said curiously: "But aren't the police specialized in helping people collect corpses?" Then he nodded and said, "Okay, the main thing is that we didn't prepare to be resident in Detroit from the beginning, and if someone says this, you can explain it, saying that we have cleaned up in other places." ”

Barbara laughed, "I said it, they accepted it, and some people asked us if we would be interested in participating in the preservation work." ”

Phoebe nodded this time: "Well, this is interesting, it just so happens that we are preparing to receive a large number of people from the Eastern European armed forces, and we can set up another security service company." ”

Barbara nodded, and said with a smile as she stood up, "Well, then I'll go around and come back to you when I have something." ”

"Well, go ahead."

Barbara picked up the cup and was about to leave, but stopped again and smiled at Phoebe, "Ah, I forgot to mention something, what did you do to scare the cats into running away from the basement?" ”

“?” Phoebe looked at Barbara inexplicably, and then said, "Well, there was a time when two cats did come running to glare at me, and I just stared back, and I didn't scare them at all." ”

Phoebe was telling the truth, she really didn't use the power of her eyes against the two cats who were obviously hostile, she just stared at them for a while.

"......" Barbara nodded, thinking about the way Phoebe and the cat looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing again, and said, "Those two cats were really scared by you, there was a string of cat urine on the way to the basement." ”

"I didn't even move...... Phoebe felt innocent, and added, "Then I'll bring some nepetalolide next time I come?" ”

“?” This time, Barbara was stunned.

"It's the part of catnip that is effective for cats, and it's not very troublesome to synthesize, so you can spray it like a perfume when you use it." Phoebe explained, adding again, "Of course, it's better not to use it on yourself. ”

Barbara was surprised and said, "Phoebe, that's just two cats." ”

Phoebe smiled and nodded, "I know, I'm just joking with you." I know I shouldn't tease Mino and Dhaka after I've changed my clothes, I'm afraid you'll just say it again. ”

Barbara nodded amusedly, she knew that sometimes Phoebe would indeed tell such jokes that contained knowledge points that ordinary people could not reach, and immediately shook her head and said, "Phoebe, if someone comes later, you might as well tell some jokes that everyone has heard about a long time ago, they will laugh." ”

To be honest, Barbara did mean to talk about Phoebe just now. When she changed her clothes and waited for the car, Phoebe teased the dog for a while, and Barbara said at the time that she would be infected with the smell of a dog that humans can't smell, but cats can smell, so she wanted to spray Perfume on Phoebe, but Phoebe resolutely didn't spray, Barbara has always been a little reluctant to buy Phoebe's dislike of perfume, so this time she seized the opportunity.

However, Phoebe said another joke that normal people couldn't understand, so Barbara had to correct it immediately, for fear that Phoebe would tell similar bad jokes to visitors, which was much more problematic than not using perfume, after all, after nearly a year of contact, Barbara had never smelled a bad smell on Phoebe.

Phoebe nodded when she heard Barbara say this, she had always been accurate in her judgment of the direction of Barbara's focus, and at the same time, Barbara's words also made her very satisfied, at least in this regard, Barbara was better than Sister Sun, who didn't let her tell jokes at all - except when recording the show.

When Barbara saw Phoebe nodding, she nodded and was about to go out, but Phoebe suddenly beckoned to her again, "That's right, Barbara, come here." ”

"What's wrong?" Barbara turned and walked back to Phoebe.

Phoebe tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "I heard that the new president has two little daughters? ”

"Uh-huh." Barbara held Phoebe's chair and nodded, then shook her head, "They don't have the right to come here." ”

Phoebe shook her head and said, "No, no, no, I'm not talking about today. Well, in the style of the Democrats, the new president should let his two daughters experience civilian life as much as possible, right? ”

"Indeed." Barbara nodded.

Phoebe added, "But even if they really want to experience civilian life, the Secret Service will definitely send someone to follow, right?" ”

Barbara nodded again, but she couldn't figure out what Phoebe was going to say, so her brow furrowed.

Phoebe added: "In such an open environment on land, it's impossible for the Secret Service to lower security standards, right?" ”

Barbara nodded once, then asked with a smile, "What do you think of again?" I'm short on time, so I'll have some enlightening questions when I get back. ”

Phoebe nodded "oh" for a moment, and then said: "A place like our Atlantic Floaters is a closed environment, and at the same time, we have a lot of people on the floating island, and the military and intelligence agencies, as well as the people of Onclaude have to undergo background checks before they go to the island, how about you say that we are on the island to provide a similar social contact environment for ordinary people for the president and some teenagers who are under high-level protection?" ”

Barbara was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and nodded slowly: "Hmm...... Seems to be very good......"

Phoebe stretched out her finger and nodded a few times in the air, and said: "It's not only very good, but in the future, our activities will be shifted to focus on Atlantic Floaters, so it is also a very important job to let everyone have a more positive view of the function of Atlantic Floaters." Getting people to think of the floating islands as a perfectly safe place for families to experience the working life of civilian teenagers obviously helps to improve the perception of floating islands as just military bases. ”

Barbara nodded again, then bent down to look into Phoebe's eyes and smiled, "Since you are in such a hurry to tell me this, there must be something I want to pass it on this time, right?" ”

Phoebe nodded and said, "Well, it just so happens that the people from the Secret Service are here, you go and ask them, can we reduce their workload by doing this?" You must know that the two daughters of the president's family are about to enter a period of rebellion. ”

Barbara suddenly laughed and said, "Just your ghost, understand, is there any news to spread?" ”

Phoebe added: "Well, you can also tell some people who have invested in the canine rights protection project that we are going to build the largest and most complete dog maintenance agency on the floating island." Well, for example, we use ants to bathe dogs, which is a more natural technology that helps protect the oil function of canine skin, and the training of marine mammals to increase the sense of cooperation among dogs, etc., you might as well blow more, and some people will be fooled. ”

"Fooled?" Barbara couldn't help but laugh.

Phoebe spread her hands and said, "Well, well, I should be interested." Actually, it doesn't matter what else is, as long as you say that Ebron and I both like dogs, there will be people who will be interested. They'll help you persuade the Secret Service, and what could be more appealing to the public's affection for the president's daughter and some of the teenagers in need of protection than a job caring for animals? I think their parents will like our idea more than they do. ”

Barbara nodded when she heard this, and Phoebe made a lot of sense, and couldn't help but laugh again, and said, "Okay, I see." But what kind of technique you talked about using ants to bathe dogs, I'm afraid many people will find it disgusting. ”

Phoebe shrugged her shoulders and said, "Okay, we also have a traditional technique for bathing dogs, well, the recipe for the detergent is pure natural deep-sea seaweed, how about it?" ”

Barbara straightened up and nodded, "Well, that should be good, then I'll go." ”

"Well, go ahead. By the way, if I see Troy, ask him to come and escort me. ”

Barbara stopped when she just took a step, and said with a smile: "Okay, you are not an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, you have to be protected by your brother when you participate in the drinking party, didn't I say it all before I came, even if you beat someone here, it doesn't matter, as long as you don't beat it to death." ”

Phoebe pointed to her evening dress and said, "You just believe in my skills like that? In the case of wearing this? ”

Barbara ignored Phoebe this time, and said as she walked out, "I said, you can't kill ...... I'll tell Troy to come to you. ”

"I'm bored to ask him to find a book." Phoebe said again.

In fact, from the beginning of changing into this dress, Phoebe seems to be more lively, and there is always a sense that children want to find something to do, otherwise they will not tease the dog while waiting for the bus. Barbara remembers the last time she was in Boston for a tuxedo-wearing reception, Phoebe wasn't like that.

But she had so much to do, so she didn't think much of it, just waved at Phoebe again and left.

And Phoebe watched Barbara leave, leaning back in the chair and looking at the decorative pattern of the ceiling for a while, as if in a daze, after a while, thinking of what she had just said to Barbara, and thinking of Barbara's statement that the two cats who were likely to be scared to leave bodily fluids while running, Phoebe stood up and walked to the door and said to a man in a butler's tuxedo who was guarding there, "How do you get to the basement here?" ”

The man didn't show any expression, but bowed down and replied, "Do you want me to take you there?" ”

Phoebe thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "No need, just tell me how to go."

The man said to Phoebe how to go, but the route was not complicated, Phoebe nodded, and said, "By the way, what is the basement for?" ”

The man replied: "The main storage is memorabilia of some events held after the establishment of this place, as well as some sculptures used for decoration. ”

Phoebe suddenly wondered, "Why did the cat run there?" ”

The man's face suddenly showed a crying and laughing expression, and he said in his heart, "How do I know where the cat wants to go?" But he said, "Probably there are very few people there." ”

Fibby felt the man's emotions, nodded, and asked again, "By the way, who raised those two cats?" ”

"It's a tradition of this club for more than 100 years, and it's a bit of a problem that a country club doesn't have a home animal." The man continued to reply respectfully.

"Well, thank you." Phoebe nodded, and walked in the direction of the basement.

And the man couldn't help but say this time: "Miss Song, that, why don't you continue to rest here, and we will bring the cat over for you?" ”

Phoebe turned around and said with a smile: "No need, I'll go and apologize to those two little guys in person, I hope I don't have to be afraid when they see each other again." ”

The man wanted to roll his eyes very much, thinking that none of these rich or expensive people were in the same spirit as normal people, but on the surface, he nodded and said, "Then do you want me to tell the people who came to find you to look for you in the basement?" ”

Phoebe waved her hand and said, "No need, I'll be back soon." ”

After Phoebe finished speaking, he turned around and left, and the man looked at Phoebe's back, and thought with regret: It would be nice if this was also a pampered rich lady, and she was still so beautiful...... It's a pity that although her style is very similar to that of a rich lady with an abnormal brain, she doesn't seem to be interested in men at all...... It's a pity, it's a pity......
