Chapter 355: His Journey Beyond the Stars
Tonight is destined to be the longest night in the history of the Federation, and the attack on Elizabeth at Sauron Castle has caused the people who have just experienced the victory banquet and fireworks carnival in the beer hall in front of the House of Lords to fall from the original clouds to the bottom, and also made the military god who had just established a great and selfless image in front of the people fall into unprecedented passivity.
As Suyehongtu expected, the video and related 'evidence' of Shi Chen's angry accusation against him at the victory banquet of the Europa Beer Hall were also like a cancer, which quickly spread on the Internet media after the attack on Sauron Castle, and those bloody incriminating evidence were shocking, and a wedge was fixed on the perfect wall of Suyehongtu in people's hearts, and cracks appeared.
At the same time, a conspiracy theory began to spread that the attack on Sauron Castle was the result of a peace between Suyahuntu and the authorities, mentioning that Elizabeth was interested in reforming the Reproductive Authority Regulations, so that she was squeezed out by the upper echelons of the Federation, and that Suyerhunto's "Twenty-Four Articles of Blackstone" was even more ill-intentioned in an attempt to encroach on the power of the Federation.
Although it is difficult for people to directly deny what Su Yahongtu did and immediately link him to these conspiracies after being exposed to these information, no one can resist the spread of popular imagination, and once enough people doubt him, his image will quickly distort and deform in people's minds, and any justification that is not convincing enough will only become a quibble.
After the attack on Sauron Castle was pacified, another rain fell in the capital star circle, and because it was the return of cold air, the warmth of late spring was drenched back by this rain, just like the mood of the people of the Federation at the moment.
It turns out that tonight is not the beginning of a prosperous era, but the beginning of turmoil.
The rain ticked on the leaves, knocking on everyone's windows, disturbing their restless dreams.
And in the same rainy night. In the official residences of the ordinary people, this calm atmosphere is even more manifest, the official residences in the House of Lords, the compound of the First Military Region of the capital, and even the luxurious residences of many families are brightly lit in the second half of the night, and people are making phone calls in all directions with their voices lowered, and the shock and nervousness on their faces are extremely strong.
Because of the rumors, many people are sensitive to believe that Elizabeth has sensed their intentions and exposed hostility.
As the saying goes, if you don't die, you will suffer from it, not to mention where Elizabeth is a snake, it is a dragon, a dragon that has been sleeping for thirty-four years. At this moment, she had been awakened by the sharp knife of the conspiracy, and the series of counterattacks against the attack tonight were so sharp that people were caught off guard.
No one could have imagined that if this dragon had lost its mind in a fit of rage, with her covert influence on the Federation and the private army in her hands, the Federation would have been plunged into unprecedented turmoil.
Half an hour earlier, the FBI had secretly raised the Homeland Security Alert to the highest level, and the troops stationed in the Capital Circle had received an urgent notice to be ready for possible changes.
The common people of the Federation are unaware of the filth between the forces of the upper echelons of the Confederacy. I don't know how heavy, long and torturous this rainy night is for many people, and no one knows that Prime Minister Cameron, who has always been calm and confident, is sitting alone in his office in the official residence. How many pots of bitter coffee without added sugar were drunk.
In this long and torturous wait, time passed slowly under the gaze of many people with red eyes, and the hour hand slowly moved from midnight to the third and fourth watches. Five watches, until the darkest hour of the sky before dawn, just when people's tense nerves are about to collapse. Temporarily out of the Commonwealth's sight, Elizabeth and her Royal Knights of the Round Table finally reappeared.
There was no fear of revenge, only a silent silence, silently returning to the devastated castle of Sauron, as if nothing had happened, except for a letter of conciliation to the people.
Either way, this result has made many sighs of relief.
Although Elizabeth did not publicly state her attitude towards the attack, her lack of statement and action was an attitude in itself.
Politics is the art of compromise, and since Elizabeth has not lost her mind, everything is easy to talk about
In the hands of some of the Federation's top artists, Sauron Castle has been restored after only one night of cleaning and restoration, and there is no trace of any battle, except for the occasional fishy smell when the night breeze blows.
As expected, as soon as Jiang Luming died, Su Yehongtu's follow-up plans were most seriously constrained. After the follow-up public opinion operation, even if Su Yehongtu wants to win the hearts of the people, it is not so easy. ”
The plump Secretary Yan stood in the light rainy night breeze on the lakeside terrace, looked at his majesty with an excited expression, and asked with some doubts: "The overall situation is extremely favorable to us today, why don't you take advantage of the victory to pursue?" ”
Elizabeth sat in the shadow by the window, looked at the rain outside the window through the curtain, was silent for a moment, and said: "The greatest strength of my Elizabeth royal family is not the industries in my hands, nor the Silver Cross Guards, but the merits of the Silver Cross War back then, which are the gratitude that exists in the hearts of the people. In a way, this Suya Hongtu is very similar to us, and what we are trying to fight for is also the hearts of the people, and now his glory has begun to pass away in ugliness, but the force is especially strong, and now the whole Federation is watching us, if we choose to do it, then it will cause unpredictable and uncontrollable turmoil, at that time, what is the difference between me and Suya Hongtu. ”
"I was reckless." Secretary Yan bowed his head and was silent.
The silence lasted for a long time, until dawn was about to break, when Elizabeth, who was in deep thought, suddenly asked, "Hasn't that child come back yet?" ”
"Soon, I received news earlier that Captain Shi has successfully escaped from the pursuit, and he should have arrived at the Shi family's private airport at this moment." As Elizabeth's confidant, Secretary Yan naturally knew what His Majesty was worried about, "After bidding farewell to Captain Shi, he will be escorted back." ”
Hearing this, Elizabeth's expression became a little lonely, "Do you still want to leave after all?" I want to run away from my sight one by one, and I want to run away from it, it seems that I can't be a qualified mother after all, and I am not an amiable elder. ”
Hearing the sentimental words of His Majesty, Secretary Yan didn't dare to answer, so he could only continue to be silent, so that this sorrow fermented in silence
In the southern part of the Capital Circle, on the airfield of the Federal Star Airlines, a small, bizarrely shaped starship stands in the night rain.
At the boarding hatch of the spaceship, Isha looked at Shi Chen, who was covered in blood, and said seriously: "Actually, what you need most now is careful treatment, not to travel far away immediately." ”
"Now the hospitals in the star circle of the capital, who dares to admit me, a terrorist." Shi Chen knew that Isa wanted to try to keep herself, lowered her head slightly, and said with a smile: "Moreover, I have a lot of doubts and need to find answers. ”
Isha naturally saw Shi Chen's persistence, sighed softly, she lifted the smooth blonde hair next to her earlobe, and a smile flashed on her beautiful face, "Okay, it seems that my sister's charm is greater, so I won't stop you." However, someone still wants to see you, and if you still want to leave after seeing her, then it's up to you. ”
Shi Chen opened his mouth, already expecting something in his heart, and saw Isha move away, and a charming pink color came into view.
Looking at this girl who he hadn't seen for a long time, Shi Chen felt a lot of emotion in his heart, but at this moment, he didn't know what to say.
Looking at the two men and women who were speechless at each other, Isha shook her head and walked a little farther away.
In the end, it was Ye Mengqi who opened his mouth first, "Thank you." ”
"Hmm." Shi Chen naturally knew what she wanted to thank, and naturally accepted the thanks.
"I have a lot to say to you." Ye Mengqi bit his lip and said softly.
Shi Chen understood the hidden meaning of retention in his words, and finally relented, "Let's make a long story short." ”
"You have done so much for me and for us, pointed us in the direction, and gave us hope and light, but when all this is about to come to fruition, why do you choose to leave?"
In this regard, Shi Chen could only be silent.
"We need your guidance."
Shi Chen shook his head.
Ye Mengqi's eyes dimmed.
Isha didn't go far, looking at the national idol who was trying to save in the rain, she could only continue to sigh, the ship's engine had started, and the roaring sound made it difficult for her to hear the words of the two of them.
I don't know how long the two have been talking, most of them are Ye Mengqi talking, Shi Chen is listening, and the most apprehensive girl is surprised to see that sullen and enchanting girl with tears in her eyes, holding Shi Chen's face with both hands, as if she is praying for something.
Shi Chen was silent for a long time before finally nodding.
As if he had some kind of permission from Shi Chen, Ye Mengqi went silently, and then in Isa's stunned and delayed anger, he stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
I don't know how long this beautiful still lasted before it finally separated.
Shi Chen also looked a little stunned by the girl's surprise attack, and stood in the rain in a daze.
Seeing Shi Chen's appearance, Ye Mengqi smiled, let go of Shi Chen, and took two steps back.
Shi Chen looked at Isha, pursed his lips and waved his hand, and under Isa's angry gaze, he got into the cockpit with some embarrassment.
As the roar amplified, the small metallic gray spaceship began to take off, and then with a deafening air explosion, it broke through the clouds and rushed into the stars, heading for the strange and dangerous world.
Isha and Ye Mengqi quietly looked at the clouds that were broken by the spaceship in the rain, and looked at the exposed black starry sky, and were speechless for a long time.
In the end, they couldn't keep Shi Chen.
Because his journey is on the other side of the stars.
