Chapter 108: Bait
What can be called a peaceful day lasted for two days. In these two days, there are quite a few things waiting for Li Zhen - review.
In fact, he didn't know much about many local affairs, and he didn't think he was a "capable official", so he delegated most of the things to Pang Feihong. However, Pang Feihong was only a businessman in the past, and even before he became that "businessman", he was a complete ordinary person. So he delegated more things to the "professionals" to do.
Fortunately, there are many such professionals. In addition to those who were executed in public on the roof of the building and other people who were inextricably linked to those people, there were also those who were "swept aside by Xiao Heng" in the mouth of the leader of the United Political University. They used to manage a city of Yuzhou and its surrounding areas, but now they only need to manage half of the city, so almost everyone can take on a new job.
Li Zhen became the de facto leader in a sense, while Pang Feihong faintly became his full-time secretary.
As for Zhang Jian, he is still asleep. It seemed that the situation was more pessimistic than expected, and the doctor concluded that he was most likely to become a vegetative state.
There were a lot of things that Li Zhen was waiting to ask - such as Ying Jieran, and now their organization that belonged to the former Secret Service. But he decided to wait a few more days, and if it did go on like this, he would wake him up with his own blood.
The reorganization and rebuilding work was well underway, so he could think more about things he had not had time to think about before.
That's too much.
At such times, he became more and more able to understand the true meaning of the words "a mess" and "internal and external troubles". He had lost five years, and the consequences of everything that had happened in those five years. They all came to him in droves.
He realized that he had to figure out where he was before he could plan for his future.
For example, this is a question of going or staying.
This kind of problem is very easy to solve for ordinary people - it is not humble to say that if he himself lives in the current Yuzhou as an ordinary person, he will definitely feel "happy and not thinking about it". He had little experience in politics, and the only thing he knew was to be nice to those people.
The better, the more people will support you. As a result, the welfare policy in half of Chongqing is now being implemented quite well, to the point that it is almost comparable to that of six years ago.
This results in a lot of consumption. But the other good news is that there are already two districts – this is the "two districts" that have been separated by the quarantine zone – who have sent people who are currently staying in hotels near the General's Palace.
One is from the other half of Yuzhou, and the other is from the former Wanzhou region. At present, the administrative areas that mankind once demarcated are no longer in existence. Only the great forces of nature are the only criterion for determining the boundaries of a place. And both seem to have good intentions. Or have to have good intentions - everything he has done here has gone far and wide, and anyone must consider his attitude carefully before deciding whether to continue as before - like Xiao Heng.
But Li Zhen felt that he had to think about his own affairs first, and then he could express a definite attitude.
It's foggy today. It's heavy. He was in the white mist. Take a walk on a green area behind the General's Palace.
It was supposed to be a green space near the administration building. But after Xiao Heng came to power, he made it his own private garden. For five years, ordinary people were not allowed to set foot in it, and even if the ban was lifted, only two days had passed. Not many people have the heart to come here to see the scenery.
But it's beautiful—all kinds of subtropical plants, both known and unknown, grow extraordinarily luxuriantly, and the air is fresh and sweet, as if it is about to drip honey. As far as the eye can see, there are lush vegetation and flowers, as well as moss-covered and well-preserved ancient buildings. Yuzhou was originally mountainous and undulating, and the roads here were not all plain, so after only a few steps, there were completely different scenery one after another.
He used the gun in his hand as a staff, and walked slowly along the path of the bluestone slab like a wandering monk, surrounded by the low chirping of insects and birds, and the wisps of mist that lingered among the branches and leaves of flowers and trees.
He's now with a gun. Not because he cherished it, but because the gun became his talisman now.
Xiao Heng finally achieved some goal - Li Zhen was poisoned.
The genetic virus specially prepared for him had already entered his body, multiplying and growing the moment he threw this gun out and killed Xiao Heng, making him weak. Now only within a few meters of the gun can the virus in his body be effectively suppressed, allowing him to maintain his normal state.
This gun is called the "Spear of Destiny" or "Spear of Longinus", but it has a much longer history, even before the birth of mankind. Li Zhen tried to figure out where it came from and why it had such a magical effect, but he had too little information in his hands to even have a clue for a while.
What he wanted to figure out, however, was how that one had come back.
At that time, he flew into the sky and shot himself into the vast universe. He can fly - not by hitting the air with the wings on his back, but by flying out of thin air. This is not surprising since both of them can absorb the abilities of others.
Then the next one may try to fly in the direction of the Earth.
But the problem is that the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not the distance from one city to another. It was an extremely long journey, and even if they took the Earth-Moon rocket, it would still take days.
But taking a step back, even if the one who relied on his ability to constantly accelerate himself—he could do that without thinking about the friction of the air in a vacuum—he eventually increased his speed to the point where he was faster than the Earth-Moon rocket......
So how did he land?
When I was "smuggling", the equipment on my body was modified. And the one who went out of the capsule on the moon wore the standard equipment - electricity for four hours. If he kept a minimum of consumption in the universe like himself, he would probably be able to last a whole day.
But don't forget, his feet had been scrapped before that, and if his spacesuit was to remain airtight, he had to maintain his ability to seal the damage with that layer of metal.
This means that after a day, he will be unconscious - he can no longer maintain the airtightness of his spacesuit and slow himself down after entering the atmosphere.
If he really calculated the direction at the beginning, and could ensure that after he lost consciousness, he would still follow the established route to Earth - in fact, this is already too incredible - then how could he ensure that he would not be incinerated by the high temperature at such a high speed?
At the beginning, Li Zhen imagined all possibilities, and he did think that the guy really did just that—flying towards the earth before losing consciousness, and was really captured by the earth's gravity instead of flying over his head and shooting somewhere else. But for that person, there is still only one "best outcome".
That is, it is burned in the atmosphere to the point that there is not even a dross left, not even a single cell left.
Now, however, he does seem to have returned, survived, and sooner than he did.
What the hell is this...... Or maybe a ghost would say something like this when he heard about it.
He subconsciously took a breath and frowned slightly.
Well, he won't end there. Li Zhen found a stone chair, brushed off the fallen leaves on it, and sat down to think silently.
He has been arranging in Yuzhou with great fanfare for so long, giving himself a "dismount". This can be seen as a declaration of war from the other side, which means that he already knows that he is here, and he is likely to launch an even more violent attack.
However, Li Zhen was puzzled by another point - generally speaking, if a person did this kind of thing, there were only two possibilities. The first is that they feel that they have an absolute advantage, so they can easily and calmly make such a sudden appearance before the start of the war, which is both a signal and a certain provocation. The second is that person is actually strong on the outside, and he is afraid of being seen through, so he uses this method to make his opponent jealous.
But that one, who had been laid out for so long, and was mixed up with the door of truth, was unlikely to be the second case.
This means that he has a lot of confidence in himself.
But Li Zhen didn't understand where his faith came from. He is very different from himself in personality, but it is difficult to distinguish the winner in terms of combat effectiveness. At their level, it is difficult for things like "helpers" and "equipment" in the general sense to play a decisive role, and it is even more difficult to completely eliminate the other person. He has a genetic virus, and he has this Longinus spear.
If he is him, and now he is mixed with the people of the Kind, the Gate of Truth, and secretly doing some dirty things like wanting to destroy the world and destroy the human race, then the wisest thing to do is to stay hidden.
He can make a Xiao Heng in Yuzhou, and of course he can make more "Xiao Heng" in more places. Everything is hidden in the shadows, and it is not too late to say anything like a demon king when the time is right.
- Why do you want to provoke yourself? Why do you want to let yourself know all this?
Li Zhen slowly raised his head and glanced into the mist ahead.
What if this so-called "dismounting" is the beginning of another conspiracy?
Like what......
Let yourself know about his existence. Let yourself know that Kitagawa Harumi's bones are with him.
And then......
Let yourself be caught in the net. (To be continued......)
