Since occupying Fort Town, and later joining the Safe Island Alliance, Ke Junxia has received various invitations and notices of various meetings almost every day, and he thought that every meeting was important at first, but after a while, Ke Junxia found that most of them were aristocratic games, valuable, and there were not many that could really help others, so he was too lazy to go, but he wanted to maintain a posture, so he sent Mr. Iago.

Poor Mr. Igo, first in a wheelchair, then a little better, still on crutches. Later, this actually became his prop, because Ke Junxia found that even after his injuries were completely healed, he was still running around on crutches, and for a while, his image was established, and carrying it could be regarded as a positive propaganda for Fortress Town.

Ke Junxia knew that he had made the right choice, anyway, although this kind of thing brought better results, Ke Junxia himself couldn't do it, so it should be handed over to someone who could do it.

However, there was one invitation that Ke Junxia couldn't refuse, and that was the invitation of the Shui family.

As one of the five major families of the metropolis, although the Shui family has become Pluto, the rotten ship also has three catties of iron, even if he is a member of the Mu family, but as a junior, it is also an honor to directly accept the invitation of a family leader.

But Ke Junxia couldn't refuse, not because of any family, but because the Shui family has been committed to eliminating future disasters, and even did not hesitate to sell the last movable property (now the real estate of the metropolis is no longer valuable, because it may be submerged under the water at any time) to establish the Disaster Response Research Institute.

In Ke Junxia's opinion, the Shui family is the only one in the big family of the metropolis who can still think about millions of civilians in the metropolis, and on this basis, the invitation of the Shui family cannot be refused. Not only could he not refuse, Ke Junxia also thought that if the Shui family offered to help him with future floods, he would definitely do his best.

Because the samurai and Xiao Yao left, Ke Junxia went out without personal bodyguards, Yu Niang planned to transfer others, but at this time, there was some unevenness outside the customs wall of the fortress town, Ke Junxia was unwilling to call the valuable armed forces at this time, Yu Niang repeatedly advised, Ke Junxia couldn't stand it, so he said to Yu Niang: "It's really not good, you bring a gun, and then serve as my bodyguard." ”

In fact, Ke Junxia originally planned to go alone and didn't bring anyone, but now he brought Yu Niang, so he had no way to ride a motorcycle, so he had to change to a charity sale bought at the auction, a two-seater small four-wheel drive.

The Shui family no longer lives in the mansion in the city, because the fixed real estate can't be sold, so they rent it out at a relatively cheap price, after all, the Shui family's mansion is on high ground, and there are still many people who are willing to rent it.

Since the first earthquake, the water table in the metropolis has been rising, and now it has submerged one-tenth of the lower part of the city, and the crater that used to be called the abyss is now a bottomless lake, where the new base and research institute of the water family are located.

The Shui family scattered their wealth, bought millions of pontoons, and used these pontoons to build a floating city, and the construction period only took two months.

Of course, such a short construction period is barely enough to be roughly referred to as a frame structure, and it is still being sporadically renovated and constructed.

The floating city is square, 200 meters long and wide, with four layers above and below the water. The layer under the water is used as a counterweight so that the floating city is not top-heavy.

The first floor on the water is 150 meters long and wide, and is mainly used as a working deck; The second floor, with a total length and width of 100 meters, is the main body of the institute, including public areas, residential areas and laboratories; The top floor is 50 meters long and wide, which is the private residence of the water family and the residence of the security personnel, and at the top, you can dock the airship.

Out of nostalgia, Ke Junxia also turned to his old mansion before going to Fucheng to take a look, and found that all the people living in it were people he didn't know, after all, this place is also a higher place in Xiacheng District, and it still has a certain value.

After seeing this look, Ke Junxia made up his mind that he would never come back in the future.

The car continued down, and when I reached the water's edge, I couldn't drive any further. At this time, the Shui family also sent a boat to meet him.

At this time a wide flat-bottomed boat with a shallow draft.

The sailors on the ship got off the gangplank and asked Ke Junxia to drive the car to the ship.

This saved Ke Junxia's worries, because at this time, the security of the metropolis and even the entire downtown area was becoming more and more chaotic, and it was really not a wise move to park the car on the shore.

Driving the car onto the ship, Ke Junxia found that the cabin was quite wealthy, and it seemed that the ship was designed to accommodate a medium-sized vehicle. It's just that the boat engine is very noisy, and you have to shout loudly in the whispers on the boat.

While the boat was moving, Ke Junxia found that the water quality was quite clear, which showed that although the water was not completely polluted, a giant dirty catfish that jumped out of the water not far away broke his luck - the two water sources had begun to mix, but the rift was not so big.

Finally, Ke Junxia saw the floating city in the rippling water, which was very different from the promotional pictures, one was not so clean, the other was not so beautiful, on the contrary, it was very huge, the huge and ugly lock was like the big mouth of a giant beast, and with a slight suck, it swallowed the boat that Ke Junxia was riding in.

Mrs. Water greeted Ke Junxia at the dock, although Ke Junxia now looks down on the nobles of the metropolis who have no responsibility, but she still admires Mrs. Water's pragmatism, so she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted and said, "Madam, how can you afford this." ”

Mrs. Shui smiled and said, "As the first person to speak out in front of the big board of directors, and the first person to establish a safe island for refuge, you can fully afford it." ”

Ke Junxia remembered the scene when he gave a speech on the big board of directors, and thought to himself that Mrs. Shui was also one of the members of the big board of directors, and she must have heard her speech at the beginning, but she didn't seem to hear Mrs. Shui express any opinions, so that he mistakenly thought that all the members of the big board were men.

Mrs. Shui was on crutches, turned around, hooked her other arm and stretched out to Ke Junxia and said, "Let's go, come on, take you around, and see my useless old and useless thing." ”

Ke Junxia didn't react for a while, Yu Niang stabbed him, and then he understood, so he hurriedly stepped forward to hold Mrs. Shui, and moved forward step by step with her footsteps.

Because of the slow walking, it also gave Ke Junxia a chance to see the inside of the floating city.

They were on the first floor of the floating city at this time, each floor was ten meters high, and there were also structures like battlements on the city wall, but the materials were varied, some were wooden, some were cement and metal, although the quality and design were exquisite, but the materials showed the dilemma of the water family's lack of funds.

Walking about twenty meters away, from the bottom door of the second floor, a girl in a white dress with a sunshade straw hat came to her, Ke Junxia felt familiar, and remembered that this was the girl she saw at the last party at the Mu family, the girl who was painting by the pool, for her, Ke Junxia threw a cousin into the swimming pool, and beat a family for this.

The girl walked over and nodded politely at Ke Junxia, and gave a smile, Ke Junxia immediately understood what the girl meant: Hello, thank you last time.

This is a girl who can talk with a smile.

The girl stepped forward to take Ke Junxia's place and called sweetly: "Grandma." ”

Mrs. Shui smiled and introduced to Ke Junxia: "Your Excellency, this is my granddaughter, Shui Rou'er, Rou'er, this is Ke Junxia, the city lord of Fortress Town. ”

Shui Rou'er smiled at Ke Junxia again, but this time there was no words in her smile, only simple politeness.

Mrs. Shui said lovingly to Shui Rou'er: "Rou'er, you take His Excellency Ke Junxia to visit our failed plans, and then come to the briefing room to find me. After speaking, he said to Ke Junxia: "I'm sorry, I'm missing, I'm getting older, and my legs and feet are not very convenient." ”

Ke Junxia said: "Of course I am a guest. ”

Yu Niang originally wanted to continue to follow Ke Junxia, but who knew that Mrs. Shui said, "Your Excellency, can you borrow this attendant of yours?" Help me to the briefing room? ”

Yu Niang looked at Ke Junxia, Ke Junxia nodded and said, "Take good care of Mrs. Shui." ”

Yu Niang had to help Mrs. Shui and leave

It's strange to say that Shui Rou'er had a good attitude towards Ke Junxia when they first met, but at this moment she took a big turn, and suddenly became businesslike again.

Although Ke Junxia was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, everyone had only met once, and it was on that occasion, this attitude was also normal.

Shui Rouer took Ke Junxia and introduced as she walked: "We are stepping on the first layer of the surfaced part, which is mainly used as a counterweight, and the main working area is on the second floor, that is, behind the door in front. ”

As she spoke, she opened the curfew, and the lighting inside was not very good, and the light source mainly came from the skylight overhead. They were walking in a corridor, but the surrounding rooms were all partitioned, and in order to save power, they all used large windows, some of which had glass, some of which were of other materials, and some of which were simply empty. However, because Ke Junxia didn't see many staff members along the way, most of the rooms were also empty.

After walking dozens of meters, the front should have been located below the superstructure, so even the skylight is gone, so the voice-activated lighting is used, and the lights are turned off, which is very aspective and saving.

Finally, they walked into a large room, and after entering, it was immediately brightly lit, and Ke Junxia saw a lot of photos, models, descriptions and display boards.

Shui Rouer said: "This is the defeat and struggle of the Shui family. Do you need me to explain it to you, Your Excellency? ”

Ke Junxia said: "I don't know where to start, so I'd like to trouble you to explain." ”

Shui Rouer seems to be familiar with this, she picked up a whip, guided Ke Junxia, and began to tell the history of the Shui family and the struggle against the metropolitan geological disaster for decades, her voice is sweet and fascinating, and the examples are so vivid, so that Ke Junxia was moved, it turns out that there is such a glorious family in the board, it is really worthy of the ancestors.

Suddenly, Ke Junxia saw an acquaintance on a photo, Naga Du Ziteng, and hurriedly pointed and said, "I know this person, it is my friend." ”

"Oh?" Shui Rou'er raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you know Uncle Du Ziteng?" He's a great guy. The fact that the metropolis could be flooded with sewage, you just listen to him. ”

Ke Junxia nodded and said, "Yes." How do you know this? ”

Shui Rou'er smiled mischievously and said, "Don't worry, there are you in the back." ”

"With me?" Ke Junxia said that he did not understand very much.

Shui Rou'er said, "Don't worry, let's take our time." ”

So Ke Junxia was patient and continued to listen to Shui Rou'er's explanation.

In the end, at the end of the exhibition, Ke Junxia saw the photo of himself giving a speech at the big board of directors and felt embarrassed, but Shui Rouer smiled and said: "At that time, grandma paid attention to you, you were very good, and resolved the crisis of the "monster empire" that might appear, but grandma said that you don't look at the fundamentals of doing things, you are still young in the end, but there is still salvation." ”

When Shui Rouer smiled, two deep dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth, and people couldn't help but want to taste it.

After the visit, Ke Junxia had a new understanding of the Shui family.

Shui Rouer then took Ke Junxia to the briefing room, but Mrs. Shui was not there, Shui Rouer asked a servant, and the servant said: "The scientists are fighting again, and Mrs. Shui persuaded to fight." ”

"Scientists are still fighting! What kind of scientist is this? Ke Junxia's face was full of astonishment.

Shui Rou'er unfolded her dimples again and said, "Oh, there are often things, all of them are like old children." ”
