Chapter 196: Octavia's Decision

Today's birthday boy is a dog.

Fujihiko gave him a cow bone as a birthday present.

Coriander just wants to say: Second Master Fuji, you are so picky, do your friends make it? In fact, you can pick a little more, you can use the "painting cake to satisfy hunger", and draw a bone directly on the paper. It's a lot easier than asking the shopkeeper for a bone......

In fact, Fujihiko didn't prepare anything in advance, and it was only when he came to the hotel to celebrate Liangliang's birthday that he remembered to give a gift. How much thought does it take to give a dog a birthday present? Just a bone is gone.

In contrast, Coriander is much more sincere, at least she spent two days making a big puppet out of needlework, cotton, buttons and other materials. Even if the puppet she made doesn't look like a human ghost or a ghost to others, they can all see that Liangliang likes this alternative puppet very much.

Ryo ignored the cow bones that Fujihiko had thrown at him, and held the puppet given to it by coriander with his two front paws and bit and gnawed. It seemed to know that the puppet could not withstand the tearing of its fangs and claws, so it always used its strength very well when it came down to the mouth. When it gets tired of playing, it rests on its stomach with its chin resting on the puppet.

Liang Liang was holding the puppet and obediently lying at Mingrui's feet, and Mingrui's left and right sides were sitting on his younger brother Mingxuan and his adjutant Fat Bear. He brought the fat bear with him, which shows that he has a lot of trust in the fat bear.

The sound insulation effect of the box is not very good, sitting in the box, even if you close the door, you can clearly hear the noise outside. It's not hard to stand at the door and hear the voices of the people in the box.

But coriander, they are not afraid that the wall has ears, they have brightness-

As soon as someone approached the box they were in, Liang Liang would prick up his ears in alarm and immediately go on alert.

From the beginning to the present, Ming Xuan has always been excited. Although Coriander didn't tell him what she was looking for Octavia, he had a hunch that no matter what they discussed, it must have something to do with the women's campus of the Lanpu Military Academy.

As soon as the wine and food were served, the two foodies, Coriander and Fat Bear, began to pick up their chopsticks and carry out a sweep. Fujihiko and Octavia exchanged some inconsequential words. Only Ming Xuan didn't know the taste, and he was anxious.

About a quarter of an hour down. Ming Xuan found that Coriander and Fat Bear were eating like a war, without stopping to take a breath, and there seemed to be endless conversations between his brother and Fujihikodo, from the mall to the officialdom. From sports to hairstyles, she is even more mother-in-law than a woman.

Coriander sandwiched a broccoli, and when her hand was halfway through, Ming Xuan knocked it with chopsticks, her hand shook, and the broccoli on the chopsticks fell into a messy fish soup bowl.

"Don't patronize it." Ming Xuan was secretly anxious, and he now wondered if the coriander was specially here to eat and drink. He snapped his eyes and reminded Cilantro, "Isn't there something wrong with you looking for my brother?" ”

"I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?" If you don't eat and drink, how can coriander have the strength to use your brain.

Ming Xuan became anxious, "Can we talk about business and eat first?" ”

"The food doesn't taste good when it's cold," said Cilantro seriously, "and do you think you're still in the mood to eat after you're done with business?" So don't be in a hurry. Fill your stomach first before anything else. ”

Ming Xuan was young and vigorous, and the remaining patience was almost exhausted, especially when he saw that the coriander was eating and drinking like a pig like no one else, he was in the mood to flip the table.

Ming Rui glanced at Ming Xuan, who was full of indignation, and said like a notice: "At the end of this semester, I will send you to the United States to study."

Hearing this, Ming Xuan opened his mouth wide, and looked at Ming Rui in surprise with round eyes. He finally understands now that this is what Octavia has been brewing, just to send him to study abroad?!

Ming Xuan resolutely did not do it. "I'm not going!"

Octavia didn't turn his face with him, and his faint tone couldn't be refused, "You have to go, you have to go, you have to go if you don't go." ”

"I'm going to go, you're going. I'm not going anyway! "Mingxuan is extremely firm.

He has his own ideas, and those classmates in his Calamus Academy are trying to find a way to exert their value in this troubled world, while he wants to flee abroad to take refuge, which is the work of a coward, no different from a deserter on the battlefield. He's not a coward, and he's not a deserter!

"It's okay if you don't go. Then don't think about going back to Calamus Academy to attend classes, just stay at the Lanpu Military Academy honestly. Octavia said.

It turned out that he was asked to take a leave of absence from school to recuperate and take him to the military academy for exercise, but these are all fake, and he is now just a prisoner of his brother. In fact, his brother had already planned for him, and even paved his future path. How could a teenager like Ming Xuan, who was in a rebellious period, follow such a decision?

Ming Xuan pounded the table and roared: "I am free, you have no right to interfere with my freedom!"

Octavia had a cold face, "I don't care if others have the right or not, I'm your brother, so you have to listen to me." ”

Ming Xuan took the case, "Even if you are my brother, you have no right to interfere with my freedom!" ”

He lost his temper and wanted to slam the door and leave, but as soon as he lifted his foot, he suddenly calmed down. If he leaves, won't he miss the point? Maybe Octavia deliberately resorted to such a radical method in order to take him away.

As if sensing Mingxuan's inner struggle, Mingrui said seriously: "I'm not kidding you, at the end of this semester, you will either study abroad or stay at the Lanpu Military Academy."

There's no third option at all......

Ming Xuan knew that once Octavia decided something, it would be difficult for him to change his mind. However, he pinned his hopes on coriander, thinking that coriander could help him turn the tide.

Receiving the look from Ming Xuan, Coriander couldn't pretend not to understand, and said to the Ming family brothers: "Little brother Ming Xuan, I think your brother's idea of sending you abroad to study is good."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Ming Xuan was so angry that she was about to vomit three liters of blood, seriously doubting whether she had helped the wrong person, no, he had asked the wrong person!

He sat down in discouragement, only to hear the coriander say again:

"You are a scholar, you should understand the principle of mastering the skills of mastering and conquering. Now we Chinese people are not short of scholars like you, but talents. Calamus College is planning an international exchange program, and I can ask Professor Qu to reserve a place for you. ”

Even if he goes abroad with someone as a companion, Ming Xuan is extremely reluctant to go to a foreign country, as long as he thinks of leaving his most concerned relatives to go to a strange environment, he will be swallowed by a bitter emotion.

"Let's leave the quota to someone else, I don't need it!" What's even more depressing is that Ming Xuan also knows that he is very naΓ―ve and childish like this.

Coriander shook her head and sighed, "This kid is hopeless." ”

The fat bear who was immersed in hard work suddenly raised his face and looked at the depressed Ming Xuan fixedly. The urn persuaded angrily: "Little master, the boss sent you to study abroad, and it was also a painstaking effort, don't let the boss's situation be more difficult." Previously in Dragon City. The boss conspired with Miss Coriander to save you, and in order to lure away the Japanese soldiers in the patrol room of Dragon City, he sent me to blow up an underground arsenal set up by the Japanese in Dragon City. Do you know what the consequences would have been if this incident had happened in the East Window? ”

usually looks stupid when he looks chubby, but in fact, he understands things very well.

Ming Xuan's face gradually changed. Listening to Fat Bear say this, I realized the seriousness of the matter. For a while, he was moved and feared, and at the same time, he was more determined not to go abroad.

"At a time like this, I can't leave!" If he chooses to leave at such a time, he will really be no different from a deserter and a coward.

Coriander pointed to Rui, then Fujihiko, and finally to herself, and said to Ming Xuan without a half-joking attitude: "People like us are not allowed to have any weaknesses. But the Creator is fair, and I have my brother. Your brother has you, and the second master has his brother, maybe one day, others will grasp our weakness and give us a fatal blow. ”

Ming Xuan's eyes turned red, clenched his fists and said in a muffled voice, "I won't get in the way."

Cilantro chuckled, "I don't mean to think you're a burden," and then she changed her tone and graciously admitted, "Okay." That's what I mean. Natural selection, survival of the fittest. A simple person like you is not suitable to survive in this environment of the jungle. Now that the Shanghai market is turbulent, your brother is already an indispensable member of this turbulence, and your brother wants not to get involved in you. It's just a painstaking ......."

Ming Xuan looked at the coriander with red eyes, very unwilling, "What about you?" ”

What right does a girl younger than him have to put on a straight face and lecture him?

"Me?" Coriander smiled bitterly, her eyes were confused for a while, and after a long time, she said, "I can't help myself." Actually, I'm doing the same thing as your brotherβ€”"

Why wouldn't she want to do everything she could to protect her brother Coriander? So she can understand how Octavia loves her brother more than her own life.

At this time, Fujihiko Tang interjected: "Yes." Obviously, Coriander is right, anyway, if you study abroad, it will only take three or four years. When you return from your studies, maybe we are not as good as you, and we will have to listen to your command in the future. ”

Ming Xuan hung his head, and at the first glance, he even looked at Liang Liang with pity without looking at him, and he was suddenly sad. Why didn't he understand Octavia's painstaking efforts to send him abroad, but who could understand his own painstaking efforts?

In the end, he himself is too weak, so weak that everyone treats him as a burden! He's not reconciled!

Even Cilanka, who was younger than him, could walk side by side with Octavia and Fujihikodo, and he could only follow from afar, looking at their backs, watching them get farther and farther away from him. While he was unwilling, he was also very helpless.

Ming Xuan slammed his clenched fist on the table, making a loud "bang". This kind of punch carries too much resentment and anger, as well as other emotions.

Cilantro waved her chopsticks and said, "Let him think about it for himself, let's talk about our business-"

Before Coriander's voice fell, Octavia said coldly: "I don't have anything to say to you, I can tell you very clearly that I can't help you with anything you want to do."

Coriander bit a piece of celery, and said, "We don't want you to do something for us, you just need to say something."

Octavia lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "What do you want to know?" ”

Coriander gave Fujihiko a look, and the latter understood.

Fujihiko said: "A few years ago, a singer from my Baiyuemen disappeared inexplicably, and I sent someone to investigate the matter, and as a result, a long list of missing people was found. I locked up a few people on the list, and found that the missing person was more or less related to a senior instructor of the Lanpu Military Academy, and I was sure that the singer who disappeared from my Baiyuemen was in the girls' campus of the Lanpu Military Academy-"

Before Fujihiko finished speaking, Octavia interrupted him, "Lanpu Military Academy, there is no women's campus. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ming Xuan and Coriander were both at a loss.

What does it mean that there is no women's campus in the Lanpu Military Academy? But the actual situation does not match what Octavia said, the women's campus does indeed exist in the Lanpu Military Academy?

After a while, Octavia said again: "The so-called women's campus is just a pretense."

"Under what guise?" Ming Xuan asked. No one here cares more about the affairs of the women's campus than he does.

Octavia glanced at him lightly, then turned his gaze to Coriander and Fujihikodo, as if waiting for them to continue to ask questions.

Coriander really has a question that has troubled her for a long time, "There are men and women among so many people who have disappeared, and the women are locked up in the Lanpu Military Academy, where are the men?" ”

Fujihiko couldn't help but look at her, not daring to be proud that he and Cilantro had a heart, but he did have the same doubt.

Octavia groaned for a moment, and there was really no emotion on his face.

But Mingxuan understands that the calmer his brother is on the surface, the more turbulent his heart becomes.

"If you don't believe what I'm going to say next, listen to it as a story," Octavia said, "The Japanese invaded China and entered Shanghai, entrenched in Yangcheng, and once there was a commander of the Japanese army, who invented two kinds of games during the invasion of China, one is 'chasing the deer in the Central Plains', and the other is 'smashing the Yellow Dragon'." The former was a game of hunting, in which the Imperial Japanese Army threw a large number of captives and Chinese into a jungle and hunted them as prey, most of them men. In the latter game, in order to satisfy their animal desires, the Japanese Imperial Army captured a few Chinese women and imprisoned them as comfort women, so that they could have fun......"

"It's just cruel!" Ming Xuan was furious.

Do the Japanese use the Chinese area as their amusement park? This cruel and perverted act of theirs has reached the point of outrageousness!

Coriander finally understands that the missing male is actually a live target in the hunting ground, either beaten to death or driven crazy, and the missing woman has become a plaything for people's entertainment, although there is life to live, it is better to live than to die.

Octavia suddenly sneered, a trace of bitterness flashed in his eyes, "What's even more cruel is that even some high-ranking officials in the government are involved in these two games. ”

Although the Japanese are hateful, shouldn't those high-ranking Chinese officials who brutalize their compatriots not hate? (To be continued.) )
