Because the Chinese Federation was consciously or unconsciously alienating and ignoring the Japanese mission, Xuanwu, as the representative of the mission, also had leisure time to do something that interested him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

So, Shumu Xuanwu walked the streets of Luoyang, just as he had done in the past two days.

Only by experiencing the people of a country can we truly understand the true face of the country. Shumu Xuanwu thought so and did so.

What I have seen and heard in the past three days is not inexhaustible and eye-opening.

For example, the demolition and relocation office of the urban construction management department, which uses firepower, is the favorite thing for these violent demolition workers, who are basically veterans to turn over, is to use large-caliber artillery that has been decommissioned due to technological innovation and transferred from the military field to other fields, such as the public utility field, to bombard target buildings, blow up bungalows, and then leave a place of ruins for engineering robots to clean up. As for precise directional blasting? Unless it's in a densely populated area, this kind of indecent stuff won't be considered by these veterans.

For example, the plasma hot-melt ground dresser uses a jet flame of thousands of degrees Celsius to plow the ground and burn it into a pool of magma, which naturally obtains a flat and solid ground after cooling.

For example, the multi-functional city-assisted management type Dark Cloud 2 airship equipped with a cryo laser can shoot wherever there is a fire - and if necessary, it can also shoot something else.

For example, the use of carbon-strengthened technology - such as graphene, the safety standard is high enough to go directly to the battlefield of civilian locomotives (there is no word "car" in this world), in the official words of the Chinese Federation, is: high standards and high requirements made in order to save lives as much as possible in car accidents...... Believe me, bullets driven by conventional gunpowder propellants (in this case, non-cherry stone explosives) are ineffective against them, and they even dare to collide with solid iron bumps.

All sorts of violent stuff like that.

In fact, it is difficult for Shumu Xuanwu to understand why these things, which are suspected of being heavy weapons, are so openly and openly used in daily life. I remember the first time he saw a team of motorized armored infantry carrying rocket artillery to demolish and move old houses, he thought it was some kind of military exercise in the city.

However, this kind of brutal violence has also become a weight to some extent, pressing on his heart, making him even more worried.

In the Chinese Federation, the more you see, the more you doubt.

This country is like a tank with a rocket engine installed, which is rampage, and even has the feeling of flying.

The power of the central government is everywhere and has developed into every corner of social production and life: among other things, can you trust the long and direct communication between the supreme head of state and the ordinary citizens of the country? From time to time, the princess or prime minister of the Chinese Federation randomly uses personal terminals to contact certain citizens and listen to public opinions; Or conversely, any citizen can leave a message to the e-mail, blog, or web page of the princess or the prime minister to report the situation.

Seamless communication between the upper and lower strata of society has been realized, and deception has become a historical term.

The bureaucratic class, which was originally in the middle structure, has forever lost the soil for survival in the Federal Republic of China, and the flattened social structure has squeezed out all their space, and as the communication channel at the top and bottom of society, they have lost the meaning and value of their existence.

Therefore, as a Chinese Japanese origin, Xuanwu Shuki feels more uncomfortable about this than ordinary people.

Unconsciously, following the complicated thoughts, Shumu Xuanwu walked to an inaccessible neighborhood.

It's supposed to be a residential area somewhere, but for some reason, it's so quiet that it seems to be deserted, forming two different worlds from the bustling street just across the street, with only a handful of public cleaning robots patrolling on wheels.

No, wait.

In a neighborhood park not far away, there was a creaking sound of metal, who must be playing on the swing?

Shumu Xuanwu, who judged it like this, subconsciously glanced over there-

The pupils of the eyes dilated suddenly!

Squeak crunch......

The new chains swayed stiffly and scorched lullaby.

A petite girl with a double ponytail is sitting on a swing, swaying back and forth.

No one is pushing the swing, it's moving.

The noonday sun casts a bright white background for the world, and the streets are silent, the monotonous cacophony of metal friction rubs, the swings that no one automates, and the little girl who looks indifferent and sluggish......

At this moment, in the face of such a combination of strange elements, the sun does not bring courage, but instead sets off a sense of terror under the sun.

But Shuki Xuanwu didn't feel that way, because he recognized the face.

Li Baihe, the head of the Dragon Pavilion of the Chinese Federation, is also the confidant of that Li Long.

Shumu Xuanwu squinted and muttered for a moment, then took a step.

Yuriko's brow furrowed slightly.

She turned her head and watched as the man approached from a distance, eventually coming to her.

"Hello, Miss Lily."

The man greeted politely.

The little girl named Li Lili, at least in appearance, was still a girl, and raised her little head and looked at Shumu Xuanwu.

On the white and delicate face, the delicate facial features use subtle changes to draw a faint question.

Looking at her, Shumu Xuanwu suddenly didn't know what to say.

After all, as far as the known intelligence goes, this little girl, like that Li Zhilong, has accepted the development of brain quantum waves and has superpowers that can only appear in novels......

It is never wise to tell lies in front of her.

…… Perhaps, the reason why she looks so indifferent is because she has seen too many ugly people's hearts, right? Shumu Xuanwu had such a thought.

Immediately afterwards, Shumu Xuanwu regretted that he was so impulsive and unwise! There is no one here, what if she is brainwashed and manipulated?! Even if you have superpowers, what else can't you have?!

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in manipulating you."

Cold and monotonous, the voice is very much in line with her appearance.

And her answer revealed the information and proved the guess.

Shumu Xuanwu thought for a moment, then gave up the option of leaving, and chose to believe.

- Because if the other party really wants to kill the killer, there is no need to be so troublesome.

So...... What to say?

In front of a person who knows what is in your heart, all secrets are not secrets, and the information is transparent unilaterally...... It's just a matter of not knowing what to ask.

No matter what kind of negotiation techniques, language traps, and mind games are used, they are probably meaningless in front of her. Not only could he not speak, but he would leak secrets when he stood next to her—although he had been prepared when Shumu Xuanwu decided to come to the Chinese Federation, the information he knew had lost its practical meaning, and the impact of the leak had been minimized.

Shumu Xuanwu opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound.

In the end, he had to ask, "Why are you here?" ”

"Just thinking about something."

When she replied, her eyes looked into the void in the distance, and she didn't know what to look at.

"Oh? What's the problem? Shumu Xuanwu was a little curious, "If you don't mind, why don't you talk to me?" How old is the idiot, or you can help a little bit. ”

Li Baihe turned his head and stared at Shumu Xuanwu, that ethereal gaze that saw through his inside and out.

Faced with this kind of overly thorough gaze, just when Shumu Xuanwu couldn't help but want to stagger her gaze, she spoke up: "What should I eat for lunch?" ”

So Shumu Xuanwu was stunned.

"Uh...... What do you like to eat? ”

Subconsciously, he asked.

The girl named Li Lily fell into deep thought, and then said uncertainly: "Lemon-flavored nutrient solution? ”

What is that? Xuanwu felt as if he had heard something terrible.

Li Lihe thought hard, as if she was recalling something, and finally hesitated: "Lemon-flavored...... Cake? ”

This is finally normal, Shumu Xuanwu thought, and then began to think back to the map of Luoyang, looking for where there was a pastry shop.

Tiantian Zhai, a century-old store, a world-renowned dessert and pastry food company, has opened a chain of stores of the same name all over the world, and its desserts with a delicate oriental taste are world-renowned.

Shumu Xuanwu tried to hand over the menu to Li Lihe, and she ordered it herself, but saw that her eyes were on lemonade, lemon jelly, and lemon preserved fruit...... When waiting for a bunch of lemons to wander around, Shumu Xuanwu decisively grabbed the menu, ignored Li Lily's sharp eyes, and tried to order a few sweets suitable for little girls.

So, Li Lily poked the double skin milk with a spoon, and sprinkled the lemon-flavored green ball on the side with the corner of her eye.

And Shumu Xuanwu is in a strange puzzle:

After all, this Li Lihe is a figure who has been on live TV and has created a great reputation in the world, and he is the key target of the intelligence agencies of various countries...... But why do the people in this store turn a blind eye to her?

The same is true all the way from the street, and no one has expressed concern about Li Baihe......

It can't be that everyone doesn't watch TV and doesn't care about current affairs, right?

No, in detail, they are turning a blind eye...... It's as if I can't see such a person as Li Baihe at all......

Thinking of this, Shumu Xuanwu couldn't help but glance at Li Baihe, but saw that she nodded to herself, so she continued to bow her head and poke the milk skin.

Shumu Xuanwu's heart jumped, but he didn't know how to explain the nod just now?

Could it be......

"You guessed it!"

Behind his ear, a joking voice replied.

Shumu Xuanwu's cold hair exploded, and he turned his head suddenly.

A young girl with a long ponytail is levitating in mid-air, looking down at her condescendingly.

And the creepy thing is that none of the people around look at this side, and they are still busy themselves, as if this is a blank space and nothing.

Shumu Xuanwu calmed his thoughts and squeezed out a smile: "Hello, Miss Li Yequan. ”

Li Yequan didn't pay attention, just floated down to the chair next to Li Baihe by himself.

Li Lihe just glanced at Li Yequan, and then swallowed the double-skinned milk with three strokes and five divisions, and then a plate of lemon green balls slid down the table and between her arms, being protected.

Li Yequan didn't care about Li Lihe's childishness, her casual eyes looked at Shumu Xuanwu and said, "Shumu? ”

Shumu Xuanwu was a little strange, but still replied: "Yes, the contemptible person is Shumu. ”

"You think it's strange: why are everyone around you affected by the suggestion, but you are the only one who is normal?" Looking at Shumu Xuanwu's face, Li Yequan laughed slightly exaggeratedly, "Because-you are Shumu!" ”

Shumu Xuanwu furrowed his eyebrows.

Seeing the change in Shumu Xuanwu's face, Li Yequan smiled even more: "That's right, the meaning of Shumu has been forgotten by your Shumu family!" ”

Shumu Xuanwu's eyes brightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Please speak up." ”

"Well, you just need to know that the blood of the Pivot Tree that flows from you is different from that of mortals," she said, gesturing to the people around her who were unaware of this place, "and that was enough. ”

The meaning of the words is exhausted, and it seems that there will be no more to say.

Shumu Xuanwu thought for a while and said directly: "Miss Li Yequan, I have some questions, I don't know if I can solve my contemptible doubts?" ”

Li Yequan, who was teasing Li Baihe's well-fed face, raised his eyebrows, "Ask." She didn't care.

"Excuse me," Shoki Genwu took a deep breath, "what will be the future of Japan?" ”

"Japan......" Li Yequan muttered the name of the country softly, his eyes precipitated, "Anyway, everything is in the plan." ”

"Everything was planned?" Xuanwu looked at him sharply, "Can I understand that your country already has a plan to annex Japan?" ”

Li Yequan waved his hand indifferently, "Guess whatever." ”

Shumu Xuanwu didn't care either, and continued to ask, "Excuse me, Li Enkai...... Who exactly? ”

"Master......" Li Yequan looked at Shumu Xuanwu's face and smiled meaningfully, "My lord, he is the chosen one!" ”

…… Unable to understand the answer, Shumu Xuanwu continued to be silent.

After a while, Shumu Xuanwu gave up thinking and continued to ask, "One last question: Why did you agree to the question and answer with me?" ”

Li Yequan shrugged, "Because it's so interesting." ”

Then she stood up and said to the side, "It's time to go back, Yuriko......"

- What?!

In a flash of lightning, Shumu Xuanwu got up and shouted, "Please wait a minute! ”

He looked at Li Yequan with blazing eyes, "What you just said is ...... Yuriko?! As he spoke, he looked at Yuriko again.

"The Han family's name form does not have this usage. If it is an honorific title for academics, it is also incorrect. And in the whole world, only my Japanese woman has this form of naming......" Xuanwu's eyes flashed with fiery colors, "Miss Yuriko? ”

Yuriko turned her head and looked at him coldly and quietly, "I'm Chinese." ”

On the street, two young girls walked side by side.

"So, Yuriko No. 30125, don't sneak out!" Noizumi stretched out his hand and comfortably pinched Yuriko's delicate and smooth little face, and couldn't put it down, "Isn't there delicious information on your network?" Why do you have to run out to eat! You're scaring everyone. ”

"Theory is theory, practice is practice." Yuriko No. 30125 calmly replied, "I need to confirm the theory with practice. ”

Then, Yuriko looked at her dissatisfied, "No. 28994, you did it on purpose, right?" ”

"Well, that uncle...... No. 28994 turned his head, "don't you think it's fun?" Tease him or something......"

"What if it affects the owner's plans?"

"Oh, the master's plan is a scheme, and this little detail is not a problem at all......"

"Don't always be willful......"

"Hmm! Really! It's still the newborn Sayuriko who is the cutest! ”

Noizumi's hand pinched Yuriko's slippery little face again.

“…… I hate you. ”

And in the sweet fast, Shumu Xuanwu was mechanically chewing glutinous rice dumplings, while meditating with a frown, after all, the amount of information today is a little larger.

I don't know if this meeting and conversation today is an accidental meeting, or if there are some deep meanings, hints, and metaphors...... This?

Shumu Xuanwu is thinking......
