Nick's act of kneeling down to express his gratitude and calling him a 'great, virtuous king' has become a habit in the Yabo bureaucracy.

Most of the high-ranking public officials in the bureaucratic system were selected from among the low-class and middle-class immigrants of the Beilun Republic, who had lived in the name of the 'Republic' since childhood, but were actually extremely hierarchical in social class.

Due to the influence of the growth environment, after these people gained power, they consciously and unconsciously imitated the Beilun wealthy family and famous family that they once hated and envied, and secretly claimed to be the ancestor of the famous family and wealthy family in their hearts.

Therefore, the Maharaja Yabo, who gave them the throne, naturally became a great figure in their eyes, similar to the combination of the founders of the four major families of Rodniku, Cézanne Rhodes, Heymanmanna, and Deniszamana, who once took turns as the president of Beilun and were actually the kings of Beilun.

Therefore, under the leadership of high-ranking bureaucrats, it has become common for Yabo public officials to call Gong Yaming "Great Sovereign", "King Shengming", "Our Majesty" and so on in private or semi-public, and some people even put the supreme title of "Kunmi" on his head.

It can be said that Nick's performance at this time is actually far from excessive in Yabo, if it weren't for his long-term stay on Earth, I'm afraid there would be a better performance.

But Gong Yaming and Nick were not in the land of Yabo at this time.

Nick knelt down on one knee, and Gong Yaming naturally stretched out his right hand, revealing the ring on his middle finger for him to kiss, according to the ancient human etiquette, this is to recognize the loyalty of the other person, and to recognize the meaning of 'you are the one I control'.

Nick reverently and gratefully held the most noble right hand of Yabo, and was about to kiss the ring on it when the accident suddenly happened, Gong Yaming suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and came back to his senses, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that he walked out of the kitchen door at some point. He looked at his mother with a blank face.

Like cold water with ice cubes poured from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, Gong Yaming's heart shrank heavily, and his outstretched palm hurriedly supported Nick, and shouted loudly in horror: "What are you doing Mr. Nick, the truth is above, we live in a democratic country, no matter how grateful you are, you shouldn't kneel down to me."

Remember that you are now Ya, a citizen of the Galactic Federation. He has the same status as me in terms of personality. ”

As soon as Gong Yaming helped him, Nick stood up smartly, and said in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, I have not long been naturalized in Yabo, and I can't help but reveal some bad habits of the Beilun people, which makes you laugh." ”

"Nothing. Since it's a bad habit, remember to get rid of it in the future," Feeling quite satisfied with Nick's keen reaction, Gong Yaming smiled and brought over what happened just now, and then he looked at Gong Boxin, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, with a slightly strange expression, but pretending to be indifferent, and said: "Dad, judging from the information we have, the violent attack that appeared in Shan Teng this time seems to have a great impact. But it's not serious.

Why don't we wait and see what happens next, and then think about what to do next? ”

"Okay Yameen, we'll do what you want." Gong Boxin nodded.

Hearing his father's unsurprising admiration for his opinion, Gong Yaming pretended to have just seen his mother, stood up and said, "Mom, when did you come out of the living room?"

My dad and I both felt that given the current situation of the riots, we should wait and see what happens. ”

"Wait and see what happens, but also have a full stomach," Xun Meijing didn't teach her son any lesson because she accidentally saw Nick kneeling down to Gong Yaming to thank her, but said calmly: "I left food for your father and son, Mr. Nick, and the two gentlemen who reinforced the wall over there." Let's go in and eat. Xun Meijing's calmness fell in Gong Yaming's eyes, but it was the biggest unrest. He didn't dare to talk to his mother anymore, and said, "Okay Mom." I'm really hungry, so I'm going to eat. No longer listening to Nick's respectful politeness to Xun Meijing's invitation to dinner, he lowered his head and walked directly into the kitchen...

In the kitchen, Mr. and Mrs. Gong Yaguang and their baby, Gong Yamei, Gong Yalei, Jin Mingzhen, and Dr. Mina had already finished dinner, but because the wall facing the street in the living room had not been reinforced, they were all crowded in the kitchen and did not go out.

At this time, seeing Gong Yaming come in, Yang Yaxuan hurriedly handed the sleeping baby into her husband's arms, served him a meal, and filled a big bowl of beef soup, and said with concern: "Yaming, the amount of food left by my mother and I is very large, you must be very hungry after a busy night, it's okay to eat more." ”

Gong Yaming sat on the seat given by his sister at the table, and said while eating: "Sister-in-law, I must eat more of the dishes you cook with your mother."

You and my eldest brother will not go home tonight, you will take the baby and Dr. Mina to sleep in my room, and my eldest brother and I will rest on the sofa in the living room.

Also, for the sake of safety, I suggest that you don't go back to the hotel to rest, just stay in the guest room for one night temporarily. ”

"Ya Ming, how can this work, you just slept on the sofa in the living room when you came home from a long voyage, how can you rest well..."Yang Yaxuan hurriedly said.

"Yes, Brother Yaming, it's better to let me and Sister Yami squeeze into a bed, and let the sister-in-law of the Gong family sleep in the guest room with the baby and Dr. Mina." Jin Mingzhan seemed very well-behaved and suggested.

"Yamei has been used to sleeping alone since she was a child, and one more person in her bed will definitely make her toss and turn," Gong Yaming swallowed a mouthful of fragrant rice and rice, drank beef soup and said with a smile: "And Miss Jinming, it is the first time you come to our house as a guest, so you should naturally live more comfortably."

Okay, that's what I just said, so let's stop talking. ”

"Second brother, or I'll get out of the room." Gong Yalei suddenly said with a sense of enlightenment under the hint of his girlfriend's gaze.

Gong Yaming continued to drink the delicious beef soup, shook his head gently at Gong Yalei, and seeing his serious expression, no one in the kitchen could raise any objections for a while...

After dinner, just as Gong Yaming had planned, Yang Yaxuan took the baby and Dr. Mina into his room, Jin Ming stayed in the Gong family's guest room, and the others still lived in their own rooms.

Gong Yaming, Gong Yaguang, Nick, Victor and Bifoss were huddled on the sofa in the living room.

The night was uneventful, and the next day, the third day... Until the sixth day, there was no other anomaly in Shanteng City, except for the streets full of martial law police.

On December 20, the 122016 year of the galactic calendar, due to the approaching New Year, coupled with several days of martial law and patrols without any results, the number of police officers in various neighborhoods of Shanteng City began to decrease rapidly, and people's travel became simple again.

After the situation eased. Jin Ming couldn't wait to say goodbye, took the city-state spaceship, and returned to his hometown Liaojin City, and Nick, Victor, Bifuss and others also politely refused Xun Meijing's retention, left the Gong family, and disappeared without a trace, so the life of the Gong family returned to its previous peace...

In the early morning of December 22, Gong Yaming, who had a good night's rest, came out of his bedroom yawning. After washing up and taking a cold shower, I strolled into the kitchen.

Gong Yamei and Gong Yalei were enjoying a delicious breakfast, and after seeing Gong Yaming come in, Gong Yamei rarely took the initiative to serve him gruel, and heated the seafood pancakes. He said: "Brother, my mother received a legal aid case appointed by the Shanteng Miners' Federation this morning, and my father has to deal with the annual inspection of the Shanteng Mining Management Committee of Qingji City, and the two of them will not go home for dinner today." ..., after breakfast, I will go to the garden with friends..."

"Sister, I also crossed Shanteng's old classmates and friends on a trip today, and I plan to relax," Gong Yalei interrupted Gong Yamei's words with a smile and said, "Why don't we get together and visit the garden." Just go and sing, and then you can listen to the strength of my professional singers. ”

Gong Yamei thought about it, put the hot seafood Bo cake on a plate, and put it in front of Gong Yaming, and said with a smile: "Sounds like a good idea, okay Yalei, today we will gather friends together and sing in the garden."

Are you going with you, brother? Jiahui will also go. She's been obsessed with you for years. ”

Hearing the name 'Jiahui', a fresh and innocent face appeared in Gong Yaming's mind. He thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I plan to meet Zhang Shan and Wang Weizhou today." Obviously, Gong Yaming didn't want his already complicated emotional relationship to evolve into more complicated.

"Then you don't plan to meet Lin Jiahui?" Gong Yamei was slightly stunned and asked with a strange expression.

"I'll have a chance later." Gong Yaming ate the seafood cake sweetly and said with a smile.

"Gong Yaming, Lin Jiahui has become more and more beautiful in the past 3 years, you don't want to see her at all?" Gong Yamei changed her emphasis and continued to say seductively.

Although I don't understand why Gong Yami is entangled in this question and keeps asking questions, but he has made up his mind, Gong Yaming still shook his head and said, "Yamei, I said that if I have the opportunity in the future, we will meet." After saying that, he quickly swallowed two pancakes, wiped his mouth clean with a napkin, and got up and walked out of the kitchen under the gaze of Gong Yami, who blamed him for not knowing what to do...

In fact, Gong Yaming's refusal of his sister's invitation to travel on the grounds of 'planning to meet Zhang Shan and Wang Weizhou' was not entirely an excuse, and when he left home, he dialed out the two telecommunications numbers that he was very familiar with in his memory.

After losing contact for 3 years, he contacted his two best friends again, even after experiencing countless events, Gong Yaming still couldn't help but feel a little agitated in his heart.

The 'buzzing' of the telecommunications rang for more than 20 seconds before it was connected, and a hoarse, confused voice rang in his ears: "Who?" ”

Judging purely from the voice, it can be heard that the owner of the voice has added a little more maturity and experience than before, but Gong Yaming still immediately knew that it was Wang Weizhou who was speaking, so he said unceremoniously and loudly: "Connect without even looking at the telecommunication number, how much did you drink last night, and don't come out immediately to accompany me to continue drinking." ”

"If I drink it again, my stomach will be burned through by alcohol," the hoarse, confused voice replied in a somewhat helpless whisper, and then was silent for a moment, and said in a trance: "You are not Mo Cong, Du Ze, the voice is wrong, but it is very familiar, you, who are you?" ”

Seeing that Wang Weizhou hadn't heard his voice yet, Gong Yaming whispered: "Wang Weizhou, I can't even hear my voice, you guy still has no humanity..."

Hearing this, Wang Weizhou suddenly interjected loudly: "Gong Yaming, Gong Yaming, you are Gong Yaming, it must be you."

You, you guy has been there for a few years, you have been missing for a few years in the interstellar era, and looking for your house only said that after you stopped school, you found a job in other Star Continents, and there was no address or contact information.

You used to study hard at Sidley, but where did you suddenly stop studying? ”

At this time, the three-way call had been successfully connected, and Zhang Shan's shouting question sounded in the telecommunications instrument again: "Gong Yaming, I saw your telecommunication number just now, and I almost thought it was a dream."

Which Star Continent or company have you worked in for the past 3 years, you can't have been tricked into interning at the human base on the primitive planet, right?"

Gong Yaming sighed. smiled and replied in a mocking tone: "There is no internship, but you Zhang Shan guessed correctly when you went to work on the primordial planet." ..., I have been exploring the primordial planet in the past few years, and some other accidents have happened, so I lost contact, and the past is really unbearable, and I am shocked and scared when I recall it. ”

"You're going on an expedition to the primordial planet?" Zhang Shan laughed and said, "I think you're going to increase the food source for those savage creatures."

To be honest, Gong Yaming, where have you been in the past few years? ”

"I'm really going on an interstellar expedition, and now I'm a federal C-class professional explorer." Gong Yaming said very seriously.

"You. Are you kidding? After being silent for a while, Zhang Shan and Wang Weizhou said in unison.

"Zhang Shan, Wang Weizhou, you think about our friendship for more than 10 years, will I joke about the matter," Gong Yaming smiled and said, "It's true, let's go to the Blue Star Ice Drink Shop to meet now." I'll tell you more about what happened after we met. ”

Wang Weizhou was stunned for a long time, and said incoherently: "Gong Yaming, you, you have really become a professional explorer of the Federation!"

The truth is above, this, this, genetic factors really have such a huge impact on people!

I remember you saying that your uncle was a high-ranking professional explorer of the Federation, and I know that your father was also a professional soldier stationed in the astral sector. Could it be that the excellent stealth genes they inherited from you have really become dominant?

You used to work hard for half a year to be admitted to the best school in the special star region of the earth, Shengde, after 2 years of preparatory school, dropped out of the preparatory department for 3 years, and suddenly became a federal C-level professional explorer, if the genetics change people so strongly, what are we ordinary people trying to do.

I just leave the responsibility of building the human world to you! ”

"Wang Weizhou, my previous image in your heart was so unbearable, making you so indignant about me becoming a professional explorer of the Federation?" Gong Ya was obviously a little annoyed and said, "Okay. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we meet at the Blue Star Ice Drink Shop. I hung up the call. ”

"Wait Gong Yaming, how old are you and you still go to the Blue Star Ice Drink Shop. Do you think you will always be a middle school student," Wang Weizhou said loudly in a hoarse voice: "I remember the last time we met a few years ago, it was at the Moulin Rouge Bar in Shanteng, and this time I still went...

No, no, go to the newly opened Red Mars Bar, which is more upscale and all the taxi drivers in Shanteng know it.

Also, with our friendship guarantee of more than 10 years, you guys have really become a federal C-class professional explorer? ”

"Friendship guaranteed, yes." Gong Yaming replied.

"Okay, okay, I'll let those guys see what kind of characters my former good friends Wang Weizhou are." Wang Weizhou said excitedly.

"Wang Weizhou, I haven't seen you and Zhang Shan for a few years, drinking and partying, chatting for a while, what are you looking for others to participate in?" Gong Yaming was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said.

"Others, is my fiancée someone else? Is Zhang Shan's girlfriend someone else? Wang Weizhou said righteously: "There are still 10 days before the New Year, the three of us want to get together alone is a chance, of course the first party after 3 years of not seeing each other will be lively, I will quickly wash up and get dressed, and we will see you in a while." With that, he hung up the call.

"Zhang Shan, when did Wang Weizhou become so eloquent?" Hearing the prompt of 'beep', knowing that Wang Weizhou had withdrawn from the three-way call, Gong Yaming asked a little depressedly: "There is still a fiancée, he is only 27 years old, and he is engaged too early, right?" ”

Having calmed down from hearing the good news of his friend's return, Zhang Shan said in a low voice: "Don't mind Yaming, this guy Wang Weizhou graduated from Liaojin No. 1 Industrial and Commercial School and applied for a 'Feiteng Trading Group Company' not long after, it became like this."

He originally studied the 'major of material transportation and trade', and he also applied what he had learned, and soon became a social person.

As for his fiancée, it is his boss, who is also the daughter of one of the shareholders of Feiteng Company. ”

D-level, D+-level civilized schools, if you don't consider degree promotion, most majors can be graduated with enough credits in 3 to 4 years, hearing Zhang Shan's words, Gong Yaming realized that his two friends may have already graduated from their respective schools and entered the cruel society.

And it feels like although the two still maintain a deep friendship, the feeling of intimacy that they once had has vaguely diminished a lot.

Just thinking about it, Gong Yaming heard Zhang Shan's tone look a little strange and said: "Yaming, I also just got up, go wash up first, see you in a while, federal C-level professional explorer, you guy is really amazing." With that, he hung up the phone.

After the contact with Zhang Shan and Wang Weizhou ended, Gong Yaming summoned a rental hovering car and rushed to the Red Mars Bar.

Go to the bar at 8 or 9 o'clock in the morning, which is not very common in normal times, but during the annual vacation, there are many young people who will choose this way of carnival, especially in the difficult time of life now, people seem to need some kind of excuse or reason to vent the accumulated emotions in their hearts, which also makes Shanteng City although all industries are depressed, but the bars during the New Year holiday show a kind of morbid prosperity...
