Chapter 454: Brewing!
It's snowing. When she woke up in the morning, the sky was still clear, but suddenly, just as she arrived at the office, it snowed.
She stood in front of the window, and saw the snowflakes fluttering outside, covering the earth, the sky, and the city in a silvery white, and the snow was getting heavier and heavier, she thought about it, opened the window, and at the height of the seventy-fifth floor, the cold wind became more violent, rolling up large snowflakes and drifting into the room.
The constant room temperature quickly melted the snowflakes that drifted in, turning them into a little bit of moist and cold snow water that hit her face. She thought about it for a moment, closed the window, closed the computer, picked up her coat, and walked out.
"Help me prepare the spaceship, I'm going to the lab."
She dialed the Tianxun, got into the car, and when she was heading to the airport, she saw the increasingly heavy snow outside through the car window, and suddenly wondered if it was also snowing on the other side of Li's tomb.
But she didn't know, because she had lost contact with Li Tomb, since a few months ago, she, the nominal secretary, had lost contact with Li Tomb, and the only thing she could do was to do what Li Tomb told her to do according to the previous progress.
These are all extremely trivial things, such as the construction plan of the new campus of the University of Technology, the plan for the start of construction of the new factory, and the welfare plan for the citizens of New Luoyang...... Etcetera.
Occasionally, she would attend Sam's meetings, make some necessary notes, and organize them into files, which were to be left for Li Tomb to see, but she didn't know where to send them.
Her work suddenly became extremely idle, there were not many things she needed to deal with, in fact, there were not many things she could handle, nominally she was Li Tomb's first contact in the Federation, but in fact she knew that she was just a puppet who was placed on the surface, and she didn't know anything about the real arrangements behind it.
This made her feel a little uneasy. Especially after knowing the reason why her father chose to stand on Li's side, she became even more uneasy.
Maybe those aristocrats, those politicians would think that Li Tomb was becoming more peaceful and trying to fit into the circle of the Federation, but she knew that he was not that kind of person.
Whether it's in Death Star Prison. Still in Bermuda, he has never been the kind of person who knows how to back down and know how to forbear, so she knows that there must be something behind this that they don't know, but it is slowly brewing, fermenting, and then suddenly exploding one day, overthrowing the entire federation.
But what could it be?
She struggled to think back to the time she had taken over as secretary of Li Tomb. All the movements of the Li Tomb are really very commonplace, and the only thing that is possible should be the laboratory that cooperates with Baron Hill.
It's just that there really can't be any problems there, Li Tomb is not there, Hill has basically mastered the entire laboratory, although the neutron battle star as the main base of the laboratory is still firmly in the hands of Li Tomb's subordinates, but it is foreseeable that as long as Li Tomb does not come back. Sooner or later, the encroachment of Hill and the others will also get the neutron battle star.
So, what exactly do you want to do?
She sighed. Thinking hard, but having no clue, she could only get on the spaceship with some melancholy, and she was going to go to the laboratory again, maybe she could get some clues from the bird.
"Second master, that woman is here again."
"Really? I know...... So you go back and tell the young girl. Everything is under control, there will be no problems with their application, it will definitely be approved, and according to the agreement, as soon as the progress of the Neutron Battlestar on our side comes out. will give it to her immediately...... There is still a time for the delivery of the battleship that needs to wait, and the wind is relatively tight on the border side, so wait...... Okay, let's go deal with it first......"
The red mutant parrot hung up the news and turned its head, the one-eyed with the blindfold was a little gloomy, "Where is she?" Take me there. ”
Although it was not the first time she had seen the bird, she still felt a little funny, bright red, but the palm-sized pet bird, wearing an eye patch, stood on the shoulder of a robot, and her expression was vivid, and she could see that she was a little bored with her.
There are many people in the federation who look down on Li Tomb, more or less it should have something to do with this bird, in their words, how sad a person must be, he will not even have a person under his hands, and can only rely on a bird to support him.
She never thought so, because she always felt that the bird's gaze seemed to be penetrating, and every contact with the bird was not a pleasant conversation for her.
"Chick, why are you here again?! I'm busy. ”
The red mutant parrot monster said something strange, flew to the sofa, buried the whole body in it, flicked its fingers, and the robot next to it immediately served the cut cigar and lit the fire, the bird took a deep breath so arrogantly, and sprayed a thick smoke ring on her face.
"This is a recent report, and many of them must be signed by His Excellency Li Tomb, so ......"
"I've said so many times that the king hasn't contacted me, I'm just a bird, a bird! You should ask Ram, and aren't you the king's secretary? I want to ask you, those people are getting more and more arrogant now, and yesterday they even told me that birds can't enter the experimental area. ”
"This is blatant racism, you used to be a prosecutor, right? Then you must know that racism can sue them, maybe you can give me a little advice......"
The red mutant parrot jumped up excitedly, fluttering its wings, and almost pestle the cigar in its mouth in her face.
She watched the Red Mutant Parrot perform coldly, and waited until the Red Mutant Parrot's voice was lowered before she pulled out a report, "This is an expenditure of the First Fleet last month, and the Crescent Group reordered fifteen Mi-30 warships......"
"Then you should ask Ram, I don't care about the First Fleet. As a pet, don't you think it's too difficult for me to tell me this? Look at me, I'm so young, I'm still underage......"
The red mutant parrot gaged, and seeing that her expression was grim and did not have a sense of humor, she could only take a big puff on her cigar, pick up the report and look at it, "Okay, I see." Is it that Ram is making false accounts, this guy is very corrupt and ......"
"This is the report of the First Fleet two months ago, and the report shows that they scrapped fifteen warships in a real combat exercise, so the plan for the construction of new warships was adopted......"
"Isn't that a problem? You see, fifteen were scrapped, so fifteen need to be reordered......"
"What about last month's order in the Republic of Pinault?"
"In six months, the First Fleet scrapped seventy-five warships and reordered eighty ships...... Maybe you can give me a reasonable explanation. ”
"Border conflicts. You know, the Empires have been crazy lately. ”
The red mutant parrot bit its cigar and said impatiently.
She didn't refute, just closed all the reports and pursed her lips, "Although I don't know what you guys are preparing behind the scenes, I know that it will definitely not be as simple as it seems, I want you to tell him a word, the Federation will not become his pawn, and the three trillion Federation people will not become his pawns." ”
"That's it? I know, I'll tell him when the king comes back, or you can say it to him directly. ”
The red mutant parrot sneered, sipping a cigar and staring at her.
"I will."
She stood up, her gaze did not back down at all, and the red mutant parrot could see the firmness in her eyes, and she was suddenly a little depressed, turned her head, and stopped talking.
"In addition, regarding the progress of the laboratory, I need an asset appraisal form, and there are indications that there is a large amount of money that has been unaccounted for recently, and I hope there can be a reasonable explanation."
"Explain what? We need to explain to you something, you're just a secretary! ”
Someone walked in with a sneer, it was Ram, the head of the Federation's First Fleet.
"Why are you here?"
The red mutant parrot snuffed out the cigarette butt and asked rhetorically.
"I happened to have something to do. I just heard someone talking nonsense here, Hathaway, remember who you are, you're just a secretary, and if you think your father, who is president of the Federation, can protect you for the rest of your life, then go as far as you can. ”
Ram's tone was harsh, "Before you come to ask us, you should ask your father why the recent proposal is so bad for us, and why he chose to give up our interests during negotiations with the Twin Eagle Empire. ”
Ram was a little aggressive, his expression was gloomy, and he glared at her fiercely, "Let's go, before I get angry, get out of here." Don't forget who you are now, and don't forget who you are here for. If you can't learn to be grateful, I can teach you. ”
"First, I don't know what you're talking about. If it hurts the interests of Viscount Li, then he can only be blamed for why he left at this critical moment.
"Second, if we had to say who we were, we could only be Federans. Ram, don't forget, you're also a Federal! You can't ......."
"What can't I do? All I know is that my country once threw me in prison, and it was the king who gave me a new lease of life. So, now shut up and get me out of here. ”
"Hathaway, you leave first."
The red mutant parrot picked up a cigar again, signaling for her to go.
She bit her lip, took a deep breath, and turned to leave.
"Do you want me to ......?"
Ram made a murderous gesture, and the red mutant parrot shook her head, "No, she can't affect anything, and she can't change anything." What's more, those who are patriotic and have weaknesses are always better to control than others. ”
"By the way, there will be no news from the king's side for the time being, everything is going according to plan, ...... your side"
She walked through the corridor, and could no longer hear the conversation between Ram and the red mutant parrot, she raised her head and looked at the starry sky, wondering where the man who was beyond the stars at the moment wanted to take this country, this people. (To be continued......)
