190. It's great to see you safe and sound, Lord Admiral
"…… It's here."
Not long after, the black sedan was parked again in front of the dormitory.
Richelieu, who was dressed in work clothes, said indifferently to the admiral behind him. And the Admiral didn't talk nonsense at all, he simply unbuckled his seat belt, pulled the car door and planned to leave.
"Finally, what are you after?"
Looking at the Admiral who was about to open the car door, the Richelieu Secretary suddenly asked.
"Ambition grows with power, what exactly are you after? It's impossible to survive in this world alone, even if you're the strongest."
I don't understand it at all.
Richelieu looked at the emaciated man with a frown.
Whether it was this man's strength or his ideas, the Governor's plans were nothing but a cloud of thought. It's like someone else playing chess and you throw a four-pie on the board, he doesn't make the rules, he doesn't overturn the rules, he plays another rule.
He knew very well what the bottom line of those people was, so he didn't choose to make a fuss in front of the public. He also knew exactly what the Governor wanted, so he put on a reckless posture.
But why? There has to be a reason for everything. And the reason for this person is completely unknown.
"You don't have to worry about that, Secretary-General Richelieu."
Pulling the car door, the Admiral said with a sideways smile.
"I don't care what happens on this horizon, what I'm after is not something you can give. Human society can't give me what I want. There is no other way for me to pursue something than to forge it with my own hands and those children's hands."
"It's no exaggeration to say that even when I was forced to look at my feet in Guam, I never forgot what I wanted. And you woke me up and made me discover my power."
"So you might be able to see it soon. At 30,000 meters in the sky, there is one more star."
"Do you want to restore the world of the ancients?"
Richelieu frowned as he looked at the man standing in the doorway and pressing the doorbell.
"Times are different. The world of the ancients is over, and I admit that their technology and history are fascinating. But if they want to recover, they're just wishful thinking."
"Who said to restore the world of the ancients?" Holding the command knife, the Admiral flicked the dust on his body. Turning to look at Richelieu, he said with a serious face: "All I want is for those children to be safe and happy."
"…… Are you kidding?"
Richelieu frowned.
"Now that you know that your strength can get out of such a judgment, you still want to use this excuse to perfunctory me? We are quite sincere about it."
"I'm very sincere, I didn't tell a single lie from beginning to end. Before looking up at the sky, you must first be down-to-earth, and watching you fight for power or something when the foundation is not done well is a little ridiculous in the eyes of some people."
"I'm sorry, I can't feel your sincerity."
"So, if you think so, think so. Although I'm telling the truth."
The Admiral shrugged. Watching the door suddenly close his mouth. Richelieu's eyes flashed, and he kept silent. Because both of them heard the sound of the wooden door being opened behind the door.
After a few seconds, Xianghe, who was still dressed in white, opened the door a little nervously. When he saw the admiral standing outside the door, Xianghe was actually slightly stunned, as if he couldn't believe that he really came back in such a short time.
"I've sent it back, so goodbye."
Looking at the somewhat stunned Xianghe at the door, Richelieu sighed in his heart. Said to Xianghe, who was dressed in white. He turned around and prepared to drive away.
"Huh? So suddenly? Won't the Secretary-General have breakfast before leaving?"
Xianghe came back to his senses and hurriedly invited.
"No need, the Governor has some tasks to delegate to me."
Then I lost my company.
Declining Shozuru's invitation, Richelieu shook his head. He glanced meaningfully at the admiral who was standing at the door smiling. All pulled open the door and sat in and left the place directly.
Richelieu looked a little unusual, in a hurry. The slightly hasty feeling made Xianghe blink his eyes in confusion, and then tilted his head to look at the Admiral, who had managed to hold back his smile. His eyes narrowed suspiciously.
"…… You don't think you've done anything to Secretary General Richelieu?"
"The conscience of heaven and earth! I wouldn't have been so mad as to do that! "
Seeing Xianghe's distrustful look, the admiral hurriedly pointed to the sky and swore an oath. Richelieu was a hardcore of the Governor, and he couldn't use his brain.
As a super veteran who had served the old man for sixty years, Richelieu was a kind of doppelganger of the governor. What Richelieu decides is almost the same as what the Doge decides. If you want to conquer Richelieu, you first have to raid the old man who is dying.
Who is crazy to attack the old man? No matter how hungry you are, you can't keep your eyes on that, right?
"Really? In other words, if you don't have the Governor's relationship, you will do it?"
"Why did the topic suddenly develop to this level......"
"Isn't it because someone is looking for you again?"
To.[,!] How many people do you provoke to be happy?
Looking at the Admiral's helpless expression, Xianghe glared at him viciously.
"Huh? Someone else?" But for Xianghe's words, the admiral was slightly stunned, and said with some doubts: "No, there has only been a transaction with Secretary General Richelieu recently, and the others are gone."
"Is that so?"
Xianghe also tilted his head in confusion.
"But those two children are really coming for you. Although it is a bit weird to say. The name is also a bit strange......"
Xianghe, who was dressed in white, said with a frown.
"I actually said that I was called 'North' and 'South', do you have these two names in the ship? The model number is also completely unknown. I can't tell you what you can do, but if you can say your name. It's supposed to be your fleet, right? It always feels like they're not very friendly with the company."
"……"
It's hell to be friendly......
Looking at the long-haired girl who slowly walked out of the wooden corridor behind Xianghe, facing the calm lilac eyes, the Admiral suddenly felt a trace of cold sweat uncontrollably break out on his hands and feet.
Completely different from the pitch-black dress she usually saw, this girl with a hideous scar on her forehead was wearing a lilac robe as usual, and nodded to the admiral who was stunned at the door. He looked very respectful and seemed to make a salute.
"It's great to see you're okay."
The voice is cold but there is no etiquette. Looking at the man standing at the door with cold hands and feet, the girl with long hair and purple eyes blinked, and the corners of her lips hooked up a smile.
"Lord Admiral." (To be continued)
