Chapter 274: Elizabeth's Invitation

Hearing this, Shi Chen fell silent, and suddenly looked at Chen Feng very seriously and asked with a smile, "What should I do?" ”

"Don't do anything."

Chen Fengxiao didn't know what Lu Dao thought, and said in a low voice: "Some things are not something you can do if you want to, otherwise you will only put your own life into it needlessly, I really want to find that old man to take revenge, and try to climb up." One day, if you can achieve Xia Jingming's position, there may be some opportunities to bring him down. Don't worry too much about being targeted by others in the near future, the so-called things are only three, that Jiang Luming didn't kill you twice in a row in Suyue Star, it is bound to stop a little, and now at this moment, it is estimated that he has also been targeted by many people, not to mention that you have returned to the capital star circle, no matter how crazy he is, he will not dare to continue to be presumptuous. ”

As if he was afraid that this benevolent brother would do something crazy similar to that on Titan, he continued: "Although the current situation of the Federation is a little bad, it has not yet reached the level of being terminally ill, and I believe that there are many smart people in the Federation, at least there are many people who are smarter than you and me, and we can all see the situation, naturally there are also people who know that there are tall people on top of the sky falling, don't worry, since those people are so calm, there must be some countermeasures, I don't believe that the old guys who survived the Silver Cross War of Independence are mediocre people. ”

Shi Chen didn't say anything, but continued to stare into his eyes, and asked with a solemn expression, "What about you?" ”

Chen Fengxiao was silent for a moment, and smiled, with a trace of strange emotions hidden in his smile.

He stared at Shi Chen's eyes, and said with the same seriousness: "I said it." I have a love and hate for the Federation, but for now, I still love more, especially those neighbors, so since they dare to use the people I love to do something that may endanger their lives, they naturally have to pay some price for it, at least, to keep the hands and feet that come in. ”

Shi Chen took a deep breath, got up and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Be careful." ”

"The same goes for you."

Drained the rest of the wine in the glass. The two said goodbye.

The next day was the day when the Federation held a state funeral for all the soldiers who died in battle. The location is at the Poplar Cemetery on the outskirts of the capital.

Shi Chen endured the severe headache caused by the hangover, and after helping Qianlin take care of everything, he went to the first military region of the capital to report.

Subsequently, traffic was restricted. A six-kilometre-long black convoy drove out of the Lensar district along Banderstraße. Passed the suburban highway. Follow the winding but solemn mountain road and slowly drive towards the cemetery on the mountainside.

Although it was early spring, there was still light snow in the sky. It makes this world seem extremely peaceful.

Shi Chen, like all the soldiers, was dressed in a gray military uniform, holding a black umbrella, holding a poplar in his hand, standing silently in the queue, his eyes calmly scanning the people next to the graves.

Prime Minister Cameron, Secretary-General Marcus, Minister of Defense Yang Siqin, Chief of Staff of the First Military Region Xia Jingming and other political bigwigs have all arrived in advance, but they are all waiting in silence.

Just as the hour was about to arrive, with a command, everyone turned around and fell to one knee.

I saw a black car with a silver cross embedded in the poplar stop outside the cemetery at some point, and the door was opened by the driver who got off the driver's seat, and I saw Isha walking along the aisle between the crowds with another middle-aged woman in a long black dress, towards the cemetery.

When Shi Chen saw this woman, his pupils constricted slightly.

The woman's eyebrows are seven points similar to Isa, and she has a trace of charm with Liya, but time still leaves indelible traces in the corners of her eyes, her golden white hair is coiled behind her head, dignified and graceful, and the depth in her eyes that has been refined by years is something that Isa and Liya do not have.

Although he had seen it many times on the TV screen, this was the first time Shi Chen had seen the honorary emperor of the Federation, Her Majesty Elizabeth.

Elizabeth raised her hand, and the crowd rose.

Xu is the majesty of the previous order, greatly downplayed the cumbersome courtesy.

With the arrival of His Majesty, the funeral officially entered the procedure.

After Elizabeth's speech, the cans of burnt bones were buried in the grave, leaving in neat rows of crosses with the deceased's nameplates.

The Si people are gone, but their service to the Federation will never be erased, and the soldiers walked up to the monument, laid down the poplars that represented their thoughts, and left.

In addition to the relatives of the deceased, many federal citizens braved the snow and spontaneously came to visit.

These people who came to attend the state funeral, dressed in dark black clothes and holding a white flower, under the scenery of the light snow in early spring, lined with the cold mountains behind the cemetery, revealing a sad and solemn feeling.

Shi Chendi's right hand held the handle of the umbrella steadily, and his eyes swept over the stone crosses, and those eyes seemed to see through the thick rock and soil, seeing the familiar or unfamiliar faces.

At this moment, Shi Chen's heart was more tranquil and calm, but his hands were white.

Then he raised his head and listened carefully to the names read out by the master of ceremonies, and when he heard the people on the list, Shi Chen would squint his eyes and write down the faces of the other party with a look of sincerity or disguised mourning.

Because to some extent, the officers on the list are the enemies of the deceased, and they are also the enemies of his Shichen.

Although he doesn't have the strength to bring them down now, it doesn't mean that he won't have a chance in the future.

After the flowering ceremony, Shi Chen's eyes turned elsewhere, and he unexpectedly saw the memorial procession of Puke Biotech, the bald chairman who often appeared on the TV screen came, and Jin Chongming, who had a good relationship with Shi Chen, also came.

If nothing else, after he announced to the media the development project of Blue Crystal Biotech, the two will be competitors.

That Jin Chongming looks extremely cowardly, but he has a well-founded approach and should not be very easy to deal with.

As Shi Chen's gaze moved, he suddenly stopped on the body of a middle-aged officer,

The man's temples are gray, but he is in the prime of life, his face is heavy and resolute, his eyes are calm and powerful, and the gold star on his shoulder is extremely bright, it is Xia Jingming, chief of staff of the military region with the rank of major general.

From the data, Xia Jingming's resume can be described as legendary, a term of the Ministry of Finance clerk, halfway into the military, specializing in the military department's civil and political affairs, the military logistics reform measures are quite methodical, began to get a rapid promotion, straight to the major, until a conflict in the capital star circle and the Blackstone Military Region, was hidden in the snow to Titan as the governor, after a lapse of 18 years, because of the excavation of the war apostle merit, transferred back to the capital star circle again, promoted three levels in a row, served as the deputy chief of staff of the military department, the following year to become a regular, can not be said to be a step to the sky.

Such a man is naturally quite capable, and at the same time he is also Xia Li's father, Shi Chen's senses for him have always been good, and Shi Chen's impression of him is still stuck in the time of farewell at Titan Star Yutian Airport.

However, such a seemingly gentle man is an important member of the Christmas Eve assassination case? Or is it highly likely to be an Imperial?

Shi Chen looked at his gaze, and suddenly became extremely complicated.

Xu was aware of Shi Chen's gaze, Chief of Staff Xia suddenly turned his head and saw Shi Chen looking at him, nodded at him, and smiled gently, like seeing a friend next door who he hadn't seen for a long time.

Shi Chen once said when Xia Li's father and daughter left the Titan that he would go to the capital star circle one day, and he also thought about the scene when he faced this man again one day, but he never imagined that this would be the case.

Shi Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he involuntarily walked towards the other party, he still had a trace of luck in his heart, and there were endless doubts, he wanted to question the other party face to face, but he knew that this was destined to get no result, and even encountered unpredictable consequences.

And just as he took a step, he was suddenly blocked by a person in front of him, a middle-aged woman.

The woman wore a dark black skirt and only had short hair that reached her ears, and she looked very capable.

Shi Chen was slightly stunned, if memory serves, this woman seems to be Elizabeth's driver and secretary.

The woman smiled at Shi Chen, raised her hand and said, "Captain Shi, Your Majesty, please come over and talk about it." ”
