Chapter 95: The Balance of Power (I)

"Civilians?"

Lin Xi looked at the bus that was gradually moving away.

Perhaps in order to take care of the old, weak, sick and pregnant in the car, the speed of the bus is not fast, so with Lin Xi's current eyesight, he can easily distinguish a few familiar faces from the car, which are all refugees he saw in the Walmart supermarket.

Now they are sitting with other refugees, full of joy for the rest of their lives, enjoying the military escort.

The rare expressions of peace and joy on the faces of the refugees were in stark contrast to the iron-blooded breath on the faces of the soldiers around them, Lin Xi looked at it blankly for a while, his mouth opened wider and wider, and he never said a word, but in his heart, he suddenly had an urge to jerk his own big mouth.

"Don't you think it's good to be jealous at this time?"

Wu Qiuli's soft voice suddenly sounded in Lin Xi's ears.

He turned his head suddenly, and saw that the girl had come to a place close to his back at some point, a pair of white and tender little hands on his shoulders and gently kneading, and the autumn watery eyes were shining with waves, and she was looking at him with a smile at this time.

The muscles on Lin Xi's face twitched suddenly.

After being embarrassed for a long time, he laughed wryly, "Is it really that obvious?" ”

"It's not hard to guess."

Wu Qiuli let go of her hand, and pointed at Lin Xi's forehead.

Immediately, she stretched out her beautiful limbs, and turned around comfortably in the bright morning light, and the smile on her face suddenly became more and more brilliant, "Your little wolf ambition, I really think this girl can't see it." ”

The girl's bright smile like the morning sun, coupled with the swirling skirt and long hair, suddenly saw Lin Xi's eyes straight.

Then in the next moment, Wu Qiuli's heavenly answer came from his ears,

"It's yours, it's right, no one can take it away, if you have time to be jealous, it's better to do something more meaningful, a boy who has no interest, I can't look down on it."

The girl proudly raised her slender swan-like neck.

There was a slight pause in her words, and she seemed to be shy and said lightly and angrily, "Or is it that in your heart, I am actually a very superficial girl?" ”

"Of course not!"

When Lin Xi heard this, he immediately shouted with ecstasy, "You are the best girl in the world!" I will definitely listen to you and concentrate on doing something meaningful! ”

"Phew! Leave this to the ghosts! ”

Wu Qiuli blushed and spat him, and then deliberately straightened her face and said, "Then tell me, what meaningful things are you going to do next?" This is my test for you, don't be brushed off in the first round! ”

"Uh......"

Lin Xi was stunned by her question.

God is pitiful, before he tied all his heart to Wu Qiuli's body, except for missing his parents whose whereabouts are unknown from time to time, all that remains is how to make Wu Qiuli and Little Apple live a better life, where has he considered this problem, even if he thinks about it occasionally, it is impossible to be so detailed.

To put it bluntly, he is still a little fart people's thoughts, a little wealth is peace, and worrying about the country and the people is only used as a pastime after tea and dinner.

"Oh, you."

Wu Qiuli sighed softly.

This sigh suddenly made Lin Xi's heart feel half cold.

He immediately snorted and asked, "I—Did I let you down?" ”

"Disappointment what, am I so easily disappointed in someone?"

The girl glanced at him helplessly when she heard this, and then suddenly made a move that Lin Xi had dreamed of these days:

She carefully took Lin Xi's hand, pulled him two steps, and then pointed to a corner of the camp that was already half empty, and asked softly, "Who do you see is that?" ”

Lin Xi was still intoxicated by the tenderness of holding hands, and when he heard Wu Qiuli's question, he only subconsciously looked at her fingertips, but in the next moment, his eyes suddenly widened!

Then, he lost his voice and shouted, "Xie Changlong! How could it be this guy? ”

At the end of his sight, it was Xie Changlong, the head of the Lushan District who he disliked very much.

This guy was walking in the middle of a group of refugees at this time, full of energy, and stopped from time to time to shake hands with the refugees and talk a few words, although his face was still full of folds, but even the cracks of those folds seemed to be infused with boundless majesty and compassion, where there was still a little bit of obscenity from a few days ago.

Lin Xi's ears were extremely sharp, and he listened from a distance, and found that what he said was just clichés such as "believe in the country" and "the country will not give up on everyone".

However, unexpectedly, it was these clichés that had no actual content at all, but to the ears of these refugees, they were like the most sacred salvation scriptures, and their panicked expressions immediately calmed down, and their eyes that looked at Xie Changlong one by one were also full of gratitude and trust.

"Why can't it be this guy?"

Wu Qiuli glanced at Lin Xi with a smile, "The army is busy fighting, he is the highest-ranking administrative official here, if he doesn't appease the refugees, who will?" You? ”

"Holy!" Lin Xi scratched his head depressedly, and snorted again, "Hmph, a demagogic guy with a tiger skin!" If you really fight, you might be able to run faster than anyone else! ”

Wu Qiuli suddenly smiled even happier, "Then if you are given the position of district head, can you calm people's hearts down so quickly?" ”

"I ......"

Lin Xi opened his mouth and straightened his chest, just as he was about to say, "Of course I can", but a slender and bright finger had already pressed on his lips one step ahead.

Wu Qiuli stared at his eyes and exhaled like an orchid, "Don't be in a hurry to brag first, think about it carefully, can you really do it?" Answer me honestly! ”

The two of them were now facing each other, close at hand, almost a finger between their lips.

Lin Xi's face turned red in an instant.

In front of his eyes, Wu Qiuli's face was also flushed, and she seemed to be shy that she had made such a bold move.

However, she still insisted on this embarrassing posture, her eyes looked at Lin Xi for a moment, and asked again, "I want the most honest answer!" ”

Lin Xi nodded slowly, and then the expression on his face began to stiffen little by little.

Soon, he came to the "most honest conclusion": no!

Not to mention anything else, just to be like Xie Changlong, who doesn't change his face and comes up with a set of official words to fool the people, it's not something he can do, without him, his face is too thin! But he had to admit that in this case, Xie Changlong was indeed the most suitable candidate to appease the refugees, if it was for himself, how convincing could that kind of stammering official talk be, I'm afraid even he wouldn't believe it, right?

"Well, you're right, I'm really inferior to him in this matter."

Finally, in Wu Qiuli's clear eyes, Lin Xi had no choice but to smile bitterly, shook his head, and had to be defeated.
