He jumped out of bed with a thrill.

The first thing that caught his eye was a small metal bottle next to his pillow. He picked it up and looked at it, thought about it again, and resolutely unscrewed the cap.

An indescribable, seemingly absent aroma hits the face, making people feel intoxicated...... Smell it carefully, but you can't smell it again!

He screwed on the cap and placed the metal bottle under his pillow. Before dawn, he looked in the room and saw a person sitting on a chair not far away napping, so he called softly: "Huaiyu? Oh! Wrong...... Zidan? ”

Sitting on a chair and napping, it was indeed Xiang Zidan. She heard Shu Yunpeng call her, and hurriedly stood up and ran to the side of the bed: "Captain, are you awake?" ”

"Hmm......" Shu Yunpeng looked at no one else in the room, as if he didn't believe it: "Just you?" ”

"yes!" Xiang Zidan said, reaching out and touching Shu Yunpeng's forehead: "The fever has subsided, it's great!" ”

"Uh-huh......" Shu Yunpeng responded vaguely: "Find me something to eat, I'm hungry." ”

Xiang Zidan left in response. Shu Yunpeng waited for her to walk out of the door, and then took out the metal bottle and looked at it carefully. The bottle was so delicate that he couldn't tell what metal it was made of.

He pondered silently. He didn't forget that moment of seeming nothingness, and a thought came to his mind: did he come to this world and have something to do with the Jones people. He knew that the scientific community of the earth had basically denied the possibility of human beings opening the time tunnel, believing that human beings could not control the energy needed to open the time tunnel.

He decided that he must find an opportunity to climb aboard the Jones warship to find out.

Xiang Zidan came in and brought him food. He stuffed the metal bottle back under his pillow and said to Xiang Zidan, "You go to sleep for a while, tomorrow we will go back to Central City after we teach them how to grow sweet potatoes." ”

After lunch the next day, Shu Yunpeng's spaceship set sail and soon returned to Central City.

As soon as he entered his door, he contacted Claire and asked how the committee had considered the negotiation with the Jones: "Although I have repeatedly stated that there are some internal affairs that need to be dealt with urgently, it has been delayed long enough! ”

"Okay, I'll ask!" Claire promised him: "Give you an answer as soon as possible." ”

He said it was as soon as possible, but it took five days for Claire to reply to him. Moreover, the content of the reply was that the committee still had to discuss it again!

"Damn it!" He was angry and helpless: "What kind of efficiency is this?" ”

"Wait!" Claire persuaded.

In fact, she and Shu Yunpeng both understood that since Shu Yunpeng pointed out the shortcomings of the Jones people and knew that the Jones people did not dare to go down to the ground easily, the committee no longer took the Jones people seriously. They do not hesitate to give up interstellar voyages, just to dominate behind closed doors, and the negotiation can be delayed.

Regarding Claire's consolation, Shu Yunpeng was noncommittal. What he thinks in his heart and what he wants to do, it is naturally inconvenient to tell Claire, so he can only do it himself.

"Didn't you say that the Jones people are more willing to accept the situation of no war and no peace, and it will not hurt us," Claire saw that he was very anxious and a little puzzled: "Why are you in a hurry to negotiate again?" ”

"I don't like things to drag on," Shu Yunpeng said, "I want to do what should be done, so as not to always feel that there is something to worry about." ”

Shu Yunpeng could only say this, he knew that Claire was very smart, and he had to be careful. As for how to get to know the Joneses, he had to think about it differently.

"Oh! Yes, but there are many things that you can't do as you wish, so you just let it be! Claire persuaded, and suddenly changed the subject: "You are world-famous this time!" ……”

"Did you hear?" He knew she was talking about the repression in the ghetto.

"Yes," said Claire, "such a big thing has long been spread. ”

"Good things don't go out, bad things travel thousands of miles!" Shu Yunpeng smiled bitterly: "Who did you listen to?" ”

Claire told him that Zhang Jingyi heard about it first. When Zhang Jingyi told her, her face turned red and she was so excited that she was incoherent.

Shu Yunpeng burst into laughter, almost laughing out of breath. Claire, who was inexplicably laughed by Shu Yunpeng, looked at Shu Yunpeng in a daze, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.

"Is it that funny?"

"You don't know...... Shu Yunpeng easily stopped laughing, and he told Claire that Claire only understood what Zhang Jingyi encountered when she went to the lover's fortress last time.

"In that case, she suddenly became a little pitiful, and she is no longer Commander Zhang, right?"

Before Shu Yunpeng could answer, Xiang Zidan came in with Zhang Jingyi.

"Look, say little pitiful, little pitiful will come!"

"What do you mean? …… Are you talking bad about me? ”

"How dare you! We are talking about how the little poor is so frightened that he cries, vomits and has a fever! Claire pursed her lips and smiled, "It's a pity I didn't see ......"

"Humph! If you were, you might be scared to pee your pants! ”

"I won't, I've seen ......" Claire stopped laughing, "It's amazing to look at, but I'm fine, I don't look foreign." ”

"Is it okay not to talk about this?" Shu Yunpeng didn't want to say anything about it anymore, but Zhang Jingyi was still unsatisfied. She is like some girls who are scared out of their souls when they watch horror movies, but they can't help but want to watch them.

"I'm not afraid now!" She said, and shouted to Shu Yunpeng: "I heard that you have done another big job in the lover's fortress...... Tell me about it? ”

"Forget it!" Shu Yunpeng really didn't want to say: "That's no way...... I would like to ask, "What do they think about those people who fled Central City and were kind enough to take them in, but I didn't expect them to want to take over the city?" ”

"They're inherently unstable. Let's just talk about that Liu Yunxiang, she is one of the backbone of the organizers of the Central City riots," Claire said, "her name is on the wanted list, and she is a second-class wanted criminal...... Don't you have a list? ”

"I really didn't see it," Shu Yunpeng said: "When you gave me the list, I saw Zhao Mengyao all of a sudden, so I didn't look down...... Negligence! ”

"Maybe the trouble doesn't stop there," Claire said, "and there must be quite a few diehards among the 12,000 people you let go." As soon as Liu Yunxiang and the others die, these people are likely to come out! And those who follow, knowing that they will never return to Central City, and life in the wild is too hard, it is better to fight. ”

Shu Yunpeng was speechless for a while. He knew that people who were forced to be in a hurry were likely to become outlaws, and what Claire said was likely to happen. But what can he do, kill all 12,000 people?

"What would you do if it were you?"

"As long as they say they want to leave, kill them all!" Claire said without hesitation.

"It's too careless for human life, right?" Shu Yunpeng shuddered coldly. He couldn't imagine killing so many people just because there might be some diehards among them.
