Revised Edition, Volume 9, The Global Public Enemy, Chapter 5, Ethereal Clouds
The new office building of the Leilondo government has been completed for a few months. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ INFOCanim, which has been scattered due to the expansion of the organization, can finally come together. However, probably because of the recent political and military victories, everyone celebrated too much, and they indulged in the sea of desire in the meat forest wine pond all day long, and they were very inactive in moving. You dragged me until I returned from the Samsung General Administration, and more than half of the departments had not moved. I had just been promoted to a senior cadre of the Central Committee, and I was severely washed by several members of the Standing Committee of the Samsung General Administration, asking me to make persistent efforts to do my best, and I must not be disappointed by the deep meaning of the special promotion of me by the above.
Under the stern rebuke of the ****** of the War Research Committee of the General Administration of Samsung and the governor of the planet Leilondo and the stern threat of "changing people if you don't change your style", all units panicked and moved overnight. The next day, when I arrived at the gate of the new government, I saw an extremely magnificent scene: the entire street in front of the gate, the entire compound inside the gate was full of strange vehicles full of all kinds of household goods, and countless cadres, workers, soldiers, and temporarily hired street thugs were hurriedly carrying things.
The new government of Leilondo was built in the western part of the central area, which includes four 50-story buildings and more than a dozen podiums. Although it is enough to move in all the units that should be moved in, the scene of everyone crowded into a busy office in the past is also gone. The military headquarters and the army headquarters occupy a building, and the owner of that building has been confirmed to be cold. The Discipline Inspection Commission and the 404th Bureau of Titus occupied the most marginal building and three or four podiums. The distance between the central axis of several buildings is more than two kilometers, coupled with the barrier of dozens of layers of concrete forest, I suddenly feel that the distance between me and my former cronies and comrades-in-arms has been greatly widened.
More than fifty people came to the guard battalion overnight, and finally moved my office completely before I went to work. Although they were so tired that they lay on the floor in the hallway, it was even more unsightly, and I could not say a word of dissatisfaction with these lads who stayed up late at work because of my words. When I sat down in the office, I saw the stacks of books and documents on the bookshelves behind me lying crookedly to reveal the imminent trend of the building, and I had to carry a protective air curtain to dare to sit under the pile of dangerous walls. Just as he was dissatisfied, there was a fierce sound of footsteps, chases, and quarrels in the hallway. Then the door was slammed open, but no one entered. With so many people moving, will there be spies who will run around to assassinate themselves? I was in a moment of excitement and stood up. At this moment, a very familiar feeling came to my heart, and I immediately understood who was there: Han Han had finally returned from vacation.
Han Han was blocked at the door by several newly recruited security guards, and he stared angrily. Those people pretended not to know herβin fact, it was understandable that the newcomers on Leilondo didn't know me, but it was absolutely unforgivable not to know her. Her ID card is old-fashioned, not a new machine-readable card. Although the name of the assistant to the governor of Leilondo was written on it, those people were stunned and did not recognize it, saying that her documents were fake, and laughing at her, "Counterfeit is not willing to spend more capital and take some outdated things". Han Han didn't bother to talk to these reckless men, and he had to guard against their hands pulling on his body, so he had the urge to pull out the knife on his waist with a little eagerness. I rushed in time to save the lives of these stupid security guards, and yelled, "Get out of the way!" This is the authentic Leilondo second-in-command, what are you doing without being big or small? β
Who knew that the security guards didn't even pay attention to my words, and replied stubbornly: "Governor, we are doing things according to the rules." Regardless of whether she is the second-in-command or the third-in-command, she must register and leave her documents when she comes to meet you, and she must ask for your consent. β
Han Han and I glanced at each other, both confused. I patiently asked, "When the rules were set, why don't I know?" β
"Formulated by Lord Titus after the events of the cult rebellion."
Titus is really lenient. I look at the appearance of those security guards who are soft and hard, it seems that the first criterion for him to choose his subordinates is to resolutely carry out his orders, right? I had to give them Han Han's documents, and then while closing the door, I briefly told Han Han about the Han Emperor's allusion to the Liuyafu Xiliu Camp, to prove that it was a good thing for the subordinates to order like a mountain. Under my teachings, I had to say yes again and again to avoid being bombarded by my ears more.
Hanhan sat down on the sofa in the rest room and opened the baggage he had brought with him, and inside was the sushi he had brought me. She complained two more sentences, saying that this sushi burden was considered a bomb by those security guards, and it must be taken for inspection. I opened my mouth to educate her again, but she grabbed an octopus and gagged me. She lay back on the couch, looked at me for a moment, and said, "You man, you wear countless masks. I really don't know if you've changed a lot in the past twenty days, completely following Titus, or completely acting. β
I swallowed the contents of my mouth with great difficulty, and sneered, "Won't you understand?" β
Han Han burst out laughing and said, "You guy, no one can sway your will, right?" β
I began to concentrate on the sushi in front of me, and I slurred and asked, "How's it going, is it fun these days?" β
"It's okay, it's all a little tanned." Han Han rolled up his cuffs to show me the skin above the wrists, and it did show a little healthy color, much better than the original miserable white. I hurriedly put down the octopus and shouted, "Take it off more quickly, let me see if it's really completely sunburned." β
When I saw Han Han's face, I knew that I was talking nonsense again, so I had to lower my head and eat. Han Han sighed: "Rhubarb, what the hell is going on with you? Actually, I really want to go back to the era when you could talk to each other casually, but unfortunately you and I are no longer in our prime. My family urged me to get married, what do you say? β
"Which one you like, it's over." Without looking up, I replied, "But don't marry me." It's not that I'm narrow-minded, it's that I'm a bit moldy. You see, just officiated at Yoko's wedding, and she became a widow. Her husband's funeral will be held in a few days, and if you can find time, it's best to go and show the care of our old colleagues, I'm too embarrassed to meet her. β
"Forget it, let's not talk about that." Han Han gave up these private topics, took out a small notebook from his pocket, and read it according to the book: "When I returned to Heguo, I played happily for three days!" There are no idle people to disturb at all, only three days. Then, the relatives of the family, the presidents of the consortiums with whom they had close contacts, and the political and military officials, large and small, ...... It's all coming. Chubby gave me a branch to deal with these people, and I was very angry. In short, in the next ten days, we dealt with more than 130 visitors. β
I understood that she had something important to say, and she didn't interrupt. Han Han continued: "Most of their intentions and requirements are like that, and you know it very well whether you say it or not. But I got a piece of information from it, which was subsequently confirmed within the family. The forces on the main planet have complained about the large-scale, almost gratuitous military supply from the three stars to the main star, and it is almost impossible to suppress. β
"You tell them, don't talk about Samsung, as if I'm taking advantage of them. We are basically self-reliant here, that is, to ask for money from Nandu and Adams. It is the three-star central fleet led by His Excellency Admiral Overmars who wants gratuitous military supplies on a large scale! β
"Rhubarb, you don't interrupt, you know that people won't listen to these people." Han Han glanced at me: "They don't know about Samsung, and they don't want to know." They once wanted to use the hand of Overmars to fully enter the three-star and become an important force in the human universe. However, Ovemas blocked all these requests and ignored them, and all the military equipment he gave was given in vain, so it is no wonder that people are resentful. I've heard that the supply of follow-up materials for the Hyundai-class ship-building platforms for ships 4 and 5 has been disrupted. Moreover, Zhao Chuanwang's side unilaterally raised the price of ocean transportation by 40%, which would bring a catastrophic cost increase to the heavy industry of Heguo, which needs to import large quantities of steel from East Asia and the American continent. Steel and all kinds of aviation metals are about to rise wildly. β
"It's really head-scratching." I flattened my mouth and said, "But it won't affect us for a while." The shipbuilding factories on our side are all based on the ore planets, and only the Overmars fleet will suffer from them. Wait for him to figure it out. β
"It's not that it won't affect us, it's just that it won't be for the time being, and I'm afraid this 'temporary' won't last long." Han Han reminded: "Our 'co-work' plan has entered the specific implementation stage, as long as Hua Song and they obtain the corresponding technology, as soon as they enter the manufacturing stage, they will immediately need a large amount of resources and finished parts, and a large number of materials must be obtained from the main star." If you still want to build a modern class, then you will have to deal with the major heavy industry groups in the country. β
"Then I'll have to think about it first." I yawned and said, "Anyway, Lord Overmars has to block a volley of guns for me first, who told him to be high." β
"You don't seem to be worried about anything." Han Han put the little notebook back in his pocket, looked at me with envy, and said, "Actually, I hope to be like you." β
"You don't need to be like me." I stopped eating, lowered my head and replied, "I'm just a paper tiger, just a superficial scenery." I have attained a position in five years that would have taken perhaps half a century for ordinary people to attain, and naturally I have paid a heavy price for it. I'm already paying the price for this unhealthy burst of gains, and this compensation for abiding by the laws of nature will continue until the day I die. β
Seeing that I suddenly said pessimistic words, Han Han was speechless for a while. There was a deathly silence in the rest room, except for the sound of my lips smacking as I ate sushi. After a long while, Han Han said, "I already knew about you before I came back. After all, what I was worried about happened, and it was only more than half a month, and something very bad happened to you. If I were here, maybe things would go in the other direction. β
"Why, do you think we should go in the other direction?" I raised my head and looked at her with a smile: "I always thought that your relationship with Chen Qi was not very good. β
"Relationship with her is another matter." Han Han said: "She is really not a suitable partner for someone of your status, maybe it would be best if you meet when you are about to graduate from college and have a beautiful and short twilight love." Even if it weren't for so many strange things this year, I'm afraid that everyone in Lelondo would have unanimously opposed the matter of the two of you, let alone that so many major events have happened that have caused public outrage. But even if she did do something heinous to Relondo, if it were purely for you, I think you should think about it other than join forces with Overmars against her. β
"It wasn't my intention to deal with her, but it was the only rational choice forced by fait accompli, and we got the maximum benefit at the least cost." I smiled inscrutablely: "It's better to be sensible, right?" β
Han Han opened his mouth, as if he still wanted to persuade me. But when he saw my smile, he immediately deflated, shook his head and said, "Whatever you want, I can't control you so much." But as long as I am by your side, I will not allow you to make that kind of decision that goes against your heart and is very detrimental to your happiness in life. I can't bear to watch you jump into the fire pit again. β
"Life is a process of suffering and suffering, and joy and joy are all in the mirror, unpredictable, and unreal." I chuckled lowly: "I've gone all the way to the present, and what fire pit can't jump?" You really can't bear it...... The next time I jump, close my eyes. β
"Just open your mouth and talk nonsense." Han Han angrily stood up and walked towards the door, and said without looking back, "I'm serious, I'll always watch you." β
I was overwhelmed by her anger and watched her go away in a frenzy. It wasn't until she disappeared at the end of the corridor that she couldn't see anyone anymore that she whispered to herself, "I'm serious too." β
Hanhan's intelligence is not bad at all. Three days later, the intelligence system of Titus submitted a similar report to me, warning that if this trend was not changed, both the co-work plan and the expansion of the Overmars fleet could be stillborn. Overmars must have been in a more hurry than I was, so I didn't bother to take the lead in this kind of thing.
Because of the return of the cold and the ascension of Titus, the political situation of Leilondo has changed considerably. Although everything was carried out in a peaceful atmosphere, I had to be present for the establishment of major organizational changes, and I couldn't help but feel dizzy after a week. It was easy to get to the end of a Friday afternoon, and there was a newly established "National Patriotic Health Movement Management Committee" in charge of public health, which was raised to a very high level, and was directly managed by Titus, so I was also asked to participate. In a fit of rage, I pretended to be sick, turned off the lunch meal, and went to the office to make a bowl of noodles and fall asleep.
Shicai's face was so stinky, but someone still came to me. I opened the door unhappily and saw that it was Yang Lan. Sticking out my head behind her and not seeing Guo Guang, I couldn't help but be suspicious, blocked her at the door and asked, "What are you doing?" β
"It's not polite to go in and say!" Yang Lan stretched out her hand and pushed me away, walked quickly to sit down, patted the chair next to her and said, "Come here, it's very important." β
I couldn't get along with her, and I had a headache when I saw her. Besides, the little thief has always been of bad character, and if this woman comes to me to ask questions and make a fuss, it will be very troublesome. Thinking of this, I have even more headaches. Yang Lan completely ignored the sub-health state of her boss, and looked around at my new office energetically, while exclaiming, "Why don't you go to the meeting of the Patriotic Health Association?" Cause me to run empty. You also know how difficult it is to come to meet you. Those security guards at your door are like Zhong Kui! β
"Mrs. Guo, you actually learned Zhong Kui's allusions, congratulations." I slumped in my chair and said in a strange manner, "I would like to express my heartfelt congratulations on your improvement in the attainment of Chinese language and literature. β
"Go, go!" Yang Lan pursed his lips and said, "Your brother still said that he would learn the Heavenly Realm language from me, but he couldn't sit still at all, and he didn't make an inch of progress for a year or two. β
"No, no, I know Guo Guang, he won't be so stupid." I corrected solemnly, "I'm sure he must have learned the celestial version of the phrases pronounced 'iguigu' and 'yamede' in harmony quickly and accurately......
Yang Lan and I immediately let out a violent dry laugh, and then looked at each other carefully with malicious intentions. I suddenly felt a little flustered: Could it be that this girl wants Hongxing to come out of the wall and come to talk about these teasing me? But these trivial things, and I couldn't so ceremoniously lift my own ban to probe her thoughts, so I coughed dryly and asked, "You didn't just want to talk to me about foreign language teaching, did you?" β
Yang Lan blinked and asked in a low voice, "The people from the Spirit Realm have made conditions to you?" β
"You can't have known about this kind of thing now, or thought of this possibility now." I replied lightly: "Don't knowingly ask, how much share capital have people invested in us?" It's normal to have conditions. β
"Well, I know I can't hide what I'm thinking from you, as long as you want to know. I just said it directly, don't go around the corner, is it okay? β
"You've made a lot of detours." I said impatiently, "If you want to say it, say it quickly, my time is very valuable." β
Yang Lan said simply: "I ask you to accept the people of the Heavenly Realm, just as the Spirit Realm has the same conditions for you. β
"You, Hongxiang, Jin Ling, Hua Song." I counted on my fingers and said, "There are already quite a few Celestial Realm people in Leirondo, how can you mention that I am being asked to 'accept' now?" As long as you are capable, you can come and Hongxiang can cover it. β
"That's right. Unlike those who demand power, we don't have the desire to ask for it. Yang Lan said with a smile: "When other forces come over, they always ask you to give you some official title and share some real power." We just hope to establish a strategic cooperative relationship, that is, to mix up the face, cultivate the relationship first, and then talk about the next thing, and eat much better than others. β
"Mrs. Guo, Miss Yang." I snorted and said, "You are now an employee of GDI, with the salary and various subsidies from the military government of Leilondo, and you are still in touch with your old masters?" It's not a good thing to pass on. β
"Oh, don't be that serious. It's just a bridge, and when the time comes to formally establish a connection, I won't be able to play a role in it, and the contact person is someone else. Yang Lan continued to gag with me and said, "What's the matter, the most powerful force in the Heavenly Realm is beckoning to you, and there is no exchange of active support." β
I immediately thought of the vast land and abundant resources under the jurisdiction of the Wuji Army. The benefits of sending to the door are not in vain, but it is inevitably suspicious, so he asked: "You put your position and position right, pat your heart and say to me, they really have no other ideas?" β
Yang Lan scoffed at my questioning: "Some time ago, when I was so poor that I couldn't even drag a straw to use as a trouser belt, I didn't think about whether the illusion world and Taiyan had other intentions? The old lady gave you a letter: how bad the situation in the world is now, outsiders will analyze and judge more clearly, and will never take advantage of this time to pull back. If you think about it again, what is cheap and good in the world now? Take it and face the contradiction of the fire everywhere. Under the tone of the unity of the four worlds, they must first help us to keep the world, and they will have a future. As for the future, if it is developed, it is not impossible to expand the territory in the starry sky of the universe. There is a lot of effort in the process, and there is always more leverage to play when talking. β
This is reasonable, and I have always hoped that things would follow this path. Although Yang Lan's judgment and assurances were useless, they still filled some of the uneasiness and emptiness in my heart a little. So I immediately clapped: "Okay, I'll believe you once." If there is any benefit, even if you take it, I will not refuse to come. β
"Then it's decided, I'll ask the contact person to come and visit you someday." Yang Lan stood up and suddenly asked casually, "Besides, you don't have any objections or restrictions to the placement of these people, do you?" β
I waved my hand and said, "Go and tell Han Han or Tydus that if you want to enter the fleet to find Hongxiang, I don't care about such a trivial matter here." β
"I'm afraid you have to agree to this, you won't object, right?"
At this time, to say something like "it depends on what is going on" inevitably seems that my new ****** is too petty. I immediately patted my chest and said, "Then you can say it, it's absolutely no problem if it belongs to the scope of my own decision!" β
"This person is very good at kung fu, and he happens to be your personal bodyguard to the best of his ability. However, I can only listen to your orders directly, and I can't go to the Basque ice pipe. β
The air suddenly condensed. I immediately thought of the increasingly stringent security measures in the past two months, the harsh terms of meetings set by Titus, and the few doorman security guards, and immediately smiled bitterly and sighed, "Are you all so suspicious of my strength? β
"Don't be so petty, show some manhood!" Yang Lan laughed a few times and persuaded: "It's not a shameful thing to have someone to protect you, hasn't Your Excellency Overmars found a master guard from the Roman Order?" Those guys also have the strength to rival the first-class players in the Heavenly Realm. β
This kind of thing, sure enough, only Yang Lan and others can inquire about it through abnormal channels, and the regular spy network like Titus is helpless. Her words confirmed my suspicions, but I was still not happy: after all, it was not particularly pleasant to be seen as a weak person in need of protection. But Yang Lan couldn't tolerate my emotional sadness, so she had to force me to express my position on the spot. I saw that I really couldn't hide today, so I had to agree listlessly.
After Yang Lan left, I lay crooked in my chair and remembered about working with the Wuji Army. Once upon a time, I had a short but sweet relationship with their leader, the kind and lovely lady of the sky, but because of the softness of my own people, I was ruthlessly torn apart by the forces around me. After so many years, I don't know how she is, most of them have already concluded a political marriage, right?
In the past few years, many things have happened to me that I could never have dreamed of. After going through so many ups and downs and storms in life, I suddenly looked back and found that I had reached a position that was enough to enter into a political marriage with May. However, this change was five years late. In the past five years, my state of mind has also changed dramatically, even if she still remembers me, still misses me, and is not yet married, it is difficult for me to maintain a normal and flat state of mind towards her. What's more, now I am just a high-ranking official in the world worth wooing for her.
The love of his youth is indeed like a floating cloud in the sky. Over the years, I have always thought that those feelings and moods have always been by my side, ready to be picked up. But when I really reacted, I found that it had been far away for a long time, and it was impossible to trace or hope.
It's really as beautiful as a glass castle, but it's so fragile that it's a teenager's love...... (To be continued.) )
