016 Ed Campbell
Mars base, three days have passed since the last anti-ambush battle in the asteroid belt.
At this moment, Lin Fan was waiting with Liang Xue in the docking area of Star Harbor, because there was a communication just now, saying that the spaceship that the negotiation team was on had arrived.
Soon, a destroyer was docked in the starport.
However, when Lin Fan saw the one who took the lead and walked down, he felt familiar, very familiar.
Wait, come to mind, I used to see it on TV, isn't this Ed Campbell?
I guess it's the same family as Emma, Lin Fan thought in his heart.
Ed walked down the suspension ladder with 4 people, and Lin Fan also took Liang Xue to greet him.
"Hello, I'm Lin Fan, the commander of Task Force 101, and this is my adjutant Liang Xue."
Lin Fan directly stretched out his right hand.
"I said you kid, what do you say to me? It's only been 19 years since you forgot who I am? I hugged you when you were born. ”
Lin Fan's black line, I forgot you after 19 years of not seeing you? Come on, I'm only 19 years old.
The only time we've seen feelings is when we're just born, is this something humans can remember?
Lin Fan is no longer able to complain, this uncle's brain circuit is really a little...
"Okay, don't be stunned, I'm kidding you, my name is Ed Campbell, I'm the leader of this negotiation team, all four of them are my subordinates, and besides, it's true that I hugged you when you were born."
"Uh... Well, Uncle Eddard! ”
"That's right!"
Ed saw that Lin Fan consciously returned the salutation, and nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, Uncle Eddard, I would like to ask you something, is Emma Campbell of the Interstellar Military Academy in the same family as you?"
"What is not a family, Emma is my daughter, what, you know my daughter!"
"Uh... Yes, after all, you're from the same class, and seeing that you have the same surname, and you're also Campbell, I wonder if you're from the same family? ”
"Well, wait, I remember a few years ago, my daughter seemed to say that there was someone in the class who always said meat jokes to her, it couldn't be you, right?"
"Uh... It's definitely not me! ”
Well, Lin Fan shamelessly denied it, saying that when Lin Fan first entered the Interstellar Military Academy, he found a big beauty named Emma.
However, this beauty is like an iceberg, of course, it is much better than Liang Xue who is standing next to Lin Fan.
So, the shameless Lin Fan ran to her all day long and said meat jokes, and Emma was annoyed when she saw Lin Fan at first.
But when a man talks to you every day, and talks for two years...
As a result, after more than 2 years, Lin Fan has reversed Erin's personality a lot.
Of course, this can't be admitted in front of Ed Campbell.
"Well, yes, you don't look like that kind of person either."
"Well, Uncle Mingjian!"
Liang Xue's expression on the side twitched slightly, and no one found it, what Liang Xue was thinking at the moment was.
I think that person is Lin Fan...
"Okay, let's not talk about the rest, take me to see the Nine Emperor Prince, I need to understand his importance in the Oaks Empire first, before I can formulate the right negotiation strategy."
"Okay, Uncle Ed, please follow me!"
Lin Fan took Ed and walked in the direction of the detention room, while Liang Xue followed behind the two.
"I said Lin boy, your adjutant seems to be too cold!"
"Well, Uncle Ed can see it, I've been trying to fix her personality, but I can't do it!"
"To deal with this type, I tell him meat jokes every day."
"Well, yes, I'm good at this, I can say a few times a day without repeating..."
Wait, I seem to have fallen for it?
"Smack..."
Lin Fan suddenly felt it, and a hand slapped him on the shoulder.
After slowly turning his head, he found Ed Campbell smiling at himself, but why was this smile so terrifying.
"Uncle Ed, I think there's a bit of a misunderstanding between us..."
"Needless to say now, focus on this mission, and when we get back, I think we need to have a good talk..."
On the side, the corners of Liang Xuezheng's mouth, who was listening to the whole process, twitched, and it could be seen that she endured it very hard.
At first, when she heard the two of them saying that she was too cold, Liang Xue almost broke out, but the later development made her almost laugh uncontrollably.
Fortunately, as a perennial ice cube, her basic skills in maintaining her expression are still very good, but she has to endure it a little hard.
Lin Fan looked at Ed Campbell with a wry smile.
Sure enough, this kind of person in charge of negotiation is an old fox, and he has a headache.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the detention cell.
"Uncle Ed, this is it, open the door!"
"Yes!"
The guards in the holding room immediately trotted over and opened the door for the three men.
The three of them walked inside and saw a humanoid being locked up in a single room.
Although it is a humanoid creature, it is still very different from humans in appearance.
He has two horns on his head, some resembling the horns of a bull, and the skin is red, some resembling the demons of human legends.
Ed wasn't surprised by Doron's appearance, after all, this wasn't the first time humans had captured a captive of the Oxes, and the figure had long been strange.
When he walked up, he opened through the door of a single cell.
"Oh? You are the Nine Emperors of the Oaks Empire? ”
"Who are you?"
"Me? My name is Ed Campbell, and I'm going to negotiate with you in a moment, do you have anything you want me to bring with me? ”
"You're trying to use me as a bargaining chip to negotiate?"
"Oh, that's pretty smart!"
Don't look at Duolun when he fights the war, he is completely a fledgling guy who commands troops on paper, but he is very experienced in politics, after all, he has negotiated many times on behalf of the Oaks Empire and other civilizations.
And the royal family of the Oaks Empire is also deceitful, Duolun has been in such an environment since he was born, how can he not understand what Ed is going to do?
"Don't bother, I'm the least favored prince, otherwise I wouldn't have been thrown to the front to command a small fleet."
"Well, that's okay, let's go!"
Ed turned his head to Lin Fan and walked out.
Liang Xue is a question mark, what is this to see?
After walking out of the detention room, Ed looked at Liang Xue and said to Lin Fan.
"Looks like your adjutant doesn't quite understand! Can you explain it to her? ”
"It's actually very simple, first of all, from the few words just now, it can be seen that this Nine Emperor Princes is not stupid, on the contrary, he is also very smart, and he knows a lot about political deception, so no matter how much he asks, there will be no results."
"Secondly, how important information has been obtained, just now he said let's not waste our efforts, when he was the most unfavored prince, his eyes drifted to the left, and his hands also had some subtle unnatural movements, therefore, he was lying."
"This Nine Emperor Princes is not only not unfavored, but extremely favored, and is likely to be the favorite prince of the Emperor of the Oaks Empire!"
How many can you see in a few words?
Are you two really human?
While shocked, Liang Xue thought silently in her heart.
