Chapter 81: Participation
The girl who was not in cause and effect didn't realize what was happening on the other side of the capital city, she didn't care about Xiao Ziya's dark and hypocritical side, and there were many more important things to do at the moment.
Zhang Yuchen gradually realized that the hospitality he received in the armed forces was nothing more than a false conspiracy to involve the Institute of Genetic Therapy and involve it in the decades-long confrontation between the armed forces and the command center. She was uneasy about it.
The first thing Xiao Ling did after returning to school was to tell her exactly what had happened outside.
"I know you're upset, and what I've done is a personal act. But in any case, public opinion has turned the matter on the sidelines, and everyone feels that we have reached some kind of agreement with the armed forces, and that this agreement will force us to be tied to the armed forces as gunmen in the command center. I'm sorry. ”
Xiao Ling said all the words in one go, not daring to stop for a moment, because she didn't have the courage to face Ms. Ou's disappointed eyes.
Ou Yang's reaction was not as fierce as Xiao Ling imagined, in fact, she seemed to know the whole story.
"Look at this."
Ms. Ou sat behind her desk and placed a letter on the desk with a large postmark of wax, which had not been opened.
Xiao Ling glanced at Ms. Ou suspiciously, the postmark on the drop of wax was obviously the official seal of the recovery center.
"What is this?"
Ou Yang leaned back on the office chair, looking tired and tired: "I don't have to open this letter to know what is said inside, have you forgotten?" ”
Xiao Ling nodded, she forgot about Ms. Ou's ability. In fact, when she tried to force herself to see something on top of the folded envelope, her gaze seemed to immediately penetrate the thick belief, revealing the contents inside.
"The command center wants me to go alone?"
These Ms. Ou's faces were a little unsettled, and her eyebrows raised heavily: "I think they do have enough reasons to do this, you have grown up." ”
"But why?" Xiao Ling was very uneasy. Anyway, she's only a twenty-year-old girl, and she doesn't want to face it alone.
Ou Yang stared at her calmly, Xiao Ling knew what she was doing, so she tried her best to present her thoughts in her mind, hoping that Ou Yang could see through all this.
"You go, the orders of the command center must not be disobeyed. But don't worry, the School of Genetic Therapy is not a kindergarten without responsibility, and we will protect every one of our students and every teacher. ”
Ou Yang's support was said at the right time, which made Xiao Ling greatly moved.
"Thank you."
Ou Yang smiled slightly, stood up and walked to Xiao Ling and gave the other party a hug: "Okay, now it's time to let the people in the command center see that our little girl has grown into a big girl." ”
Xiao Ling was small, turned around and left, taking her letter with her.
After Ou Yang made sure that Xiao Ling was far away, she pressed the telephone on her desk, which was the direct telephone line between her and the principal's office.
"I was surprised."
A silly and low voice came from the telephone, and it was Principal Cui's somewhat mocking voice.
Although he hasn't been seen for a long time, it is really surprising that Principal Cui has been in his office all the time.
Ou Yang sighed, and Brin teased the other party: "Come out, don't hide it." ”
Xiao Ling didn't expect that she would set foot here for the second time in a week, a place she had never dreamed of.
This time she did not follow anyone, nor did she take anyone with her, and faced the call alone. If the person who summoned her was Xiao Ziya, she would feel that this matter was a farce in itself.
But this time, the person who summoned her was Admiral Ling.
Ms. Ou personally sent a mecha to escort Xiao Ling to her destination, and unlike the last time, this time at the door of the command center, someone was waiting for her.
"You were the host last time."
Xiao Ling still remembers this man who combed his hair extremely smooth.
The man smiled: "Actually, my job title is Admiral Adjutant, but it doesn't matter. Come with me, the Admiral is waiting for you. ”
The command center has very strict rules on the requirements for generals, and there are less than ten generals who have been promoted in the entire command center who are still alive, and each person's promotion has a complex background and reason. And unlike a general like Xiao Ziya, Admiral Ling is the one who really holds the lifeblood of the country.
Therefore, even Xiao Ling, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, couldn't help but get nervous when he knew that he was about to face General Ling.
Unlike receiving Xiao Ziya, this time Admiral Ling was waiting in the conference room where they had met last time, and the difference was that there was only one chair next to the long table in the conference room this time.
After Xiao Ling saw Admiral Ling, he was at a loss for a moment, and he didn't know what to call him.
Admiral Ling didn't care much about this: "Sit down, I don't really need this chair." ”
Xiao Ling noticed for the first time that Admiral Ling was always sitting in a wheelchair.
"I'm sorry." Xiao Ling said dryly that she didn't learn very well in social etiquette class, and she didn't know what else to say.
Admiral Ling actually let out a smile, and even his white hair trembled slightly: "Many years ago, I used the strength of my whole person to allow myself to foresee what would happen in the future. That's how it turned out. He gestured to his leg.
Xiao Ling nodded with a sigh: "The huge genetic power disappeared from your body, and at the same time, it also took away the source of power for this leg. ”
"That's right, so I got a glimpse of the truth, but it also paid a price."
Xiao Ling sat down on the chair, she didn't know what General Ling meant by what she said to herself.
"Many, many years ago, I used this power to get a glimpse of the truth. This truth prophesied a man who would change the world. ”
Xiao Ling spent ten seconds laughing at this sentence, and then asked, "So what happened in this world at that time that caused you to do your best to even lose your ability to move, and to divinate the road ahead?" ”
Admiral Ling paused, then burst out laughing: "I thought you would ask me who that person is?" ”
Xiao Ling shrugged his shoulders and said calmly, "I don't think there is any other reason for you to see a little girl like me alone." ”
Admiral Ling smiled approvingly: "You are very smart. ”
Xiao Ling shook his head: "It's just a little clever." I fell into your trap and became one of the pawns as you had planned. ”
Admiral Ling sighed: "You and Xiao Ziya both think that I am the mastermind of all this. But actually, I'm seeing the rise of women. ”
Xiao Ling didn't understand what it meant for a moment: "What? ”
"It's time," Admiral Ling let out a sigh, "it's time for women to break out of their cages and participate in this world." ”
