"You can't see anything like that in Providentium......" Robert gently reached out to take his wife's arm, and the warmth of her body made him feel a quiet and comfortable that he had not felt in a long time.

"Joanna, there is only light and shadow there, but you can't see the sun, unlike here, where everything is really visible." He stared at her.

"But I have heard that Puxing has the most beautiful starry sky, and all the fog of the day will dissipate at night." She avoided his gaze.

Robert knew what Joanna meant, that the special gases emitted by the fern vine tree, a native plant of Provistown, would make the atmosphere extremely opaque under the light of the Mestra during the day, thus making the fern vine plant resistant to the intense death rays of the Mestra.

Therefore, even in cloudless and excellent weather, the naked eye cannot see the navel of Mica and Mestra and their connecting binary. At night, when Mestra passes, the atmosphere regains its transparency due to the loss of rays, but you can enjoy the night sky without hindrance.

But he knew that his wife didn't just mean that.

The silver-haired man looked at Joanna's beautiful face, a pastoral but slightly bookish face, on which the years had not left too many traces, he stared at her bright eyes, and couldn't help but want to kiss her lips, but she avoided her.

His lips touched the strands of her sideburns, and the gentle caress of her hair made him sigh softly. Robert let go of Joanna's arm and looked up at the dimming pale blue sky.

"Liberals are currently lobbying the Joint Council to cut down most of the fern vine trees across the planet within fifty years and control their growth, replacing atmospheric photosynthesis with lab-grown genetically accelerated leafy plants. A few days ago, they even launched a campaign with tens of thousands of people to participate in the 'return my blue sky'. Robert said with a dumb smile. These selfish ghosts are trying to destroy the entire Puxing ecology just to see the sky as magnificent as Chilian. ”

"How can they do that? Although the sky of Puxing has always been gray, the light is not affected, and the atmospheric composition of the eruption of the fern vine plant is not beneficial to the human body. Joanna was surprised, it was the first time she had heard such a strange story.

"Isn't it said that the natural antibacterial ingredients in the atmosphere of Puxing are equivalent to broad-spectrum antibiotics in the medical field, and do not produce any drug-resistant antibodies in the human body. Compared to the citizens of the Silver Alliance in Chilian, the Puxing people never have a fever or cold, and there are few epidemic diseases, which are all thanks to the fern vine tree, cutting down the tree, I really don't know how those people came up with it. Robert laughed.

"And will the Joint Council authorize them to do so?" Although she is on another planet, Joanna, who is also a citizen of the Alliance, can't help but care about such a big event that happened to Puxing.

"It's a stupid initiative, but liberals?" The silver-haired man chuckled, "There are a group of idle but wealthy rich people who have a lot of supporters, a few family councilors in Angel City will say innocuous and ambiguous empty talk in the media to drive the conversation, celebrities will stand up for them because of their inextricable interests, the energy faction will buy a few political brokers for them for the helium-3 element contained in the fern vine creatures, and the green organization that is afraid that the world will be desperate to help the flag at that time." ”

Is it stupid? But not necessarily, the purpose of throwing out such a shallow bill must be to make a final combing of the tendencies of the members of the Joint Parliament, and to serve as the leader of the Coalition in the near election year. Skaya is well prepared to make the group of blue-sky-hungry targeted voters who have supported the faction for decades happy and satisfied, and strengthen their loyalty. Robert thought so in his heart, but still gave his wife, who did not understand politics, the answer he found most digestible.

"So complicated? So they're going to pass the bill in parliament? Joanna's eyes widened and she asked curiously.

"How is that possible?" Robert was amused by his wife. "Such a bill requires more than 60% of the votes, and they are far away."

The two factions took the lead in issuing a boycott, with the two factions accounting for more than half of the 260 seats in the parliament, and with dozens of votes from the protivists, the Kande and Eunet parliamentary representatives with one veto power did not even have to make a move, and the initiative vote was completely over. No matter how dirty politics is, there is also a clear black and white, Robert sighed in his heart.

"The Kande, though uninterested in the internal strife of humanity, have an exchange with John Karan's Humanity and Environmentalism faction, and have their last line of defense in the Joint Council, which is not very likely to be an absurd thing that could lead to ecocide." He affirmed to his wife.

"That's good." Joanna couldn't help patting her chest, and Robert looked at it with a smile, her eyes revealing a soft light that made her heart palpitate, and she hung her head, unwilling to let him see the loosening of the barrier in her heart.

"This is the world I'm in right now, Joanna, because of the ubiquity of checks and balances, families, groups, factions and races, all parties are trading, compromising and antagonistic for all kinds of purposes, it is a collision of beliefs and values. Thousands of such people in Angel City have their schedules full every day, and they are holding their heads high and majestic, and they all feel that they are seeking the well-being of the common people in the world. They are extremely smart, but they are actually mediocre people, in fact, many of them are just self-deception and poor toss. ”

Speaking of this, he noticed a slightly mocking look in Joanna's eyes, and Robert smiled at his wife, "You think I'm one of them, right?" Dressed in a glossy and neat coat, it is unfathomable, but it wastes taxpayers' money doing self-righteous useless work...... Joanna, sometimes you're right. He admitted. But I try to be different from them, all the time. ”

Robert said this, and the grass filled with the scent of young shoots fell silent for a moment, two people in different worlds with different ideas, Robert paced with his head down, stamped the new mud on his feet, cleared his throat, and tried to break the deadlock.
