Chapter 552: Seeking Skin with the Tiger (4)
Tang Wan didn't speak, he first raised his right hand, cocked his middle finger, ring finger, and little finger, and made a "three" gesture.
"Three requirements? Han Yingzhen smiled and nodded.
Smart people talk together, worry-free, any details, no need to repeat.
"Yes, it is the three requirements, which can also be said to be the three points that I am very confused about, and I look forward to Miss Han's answer. First of all, I want to know, what exactly do you mean when you just say that you can represent the Lord of the Sharks? Are you one of them? He has absolute trust in you—you can meet him or the high-level members of the organization to which you belong can see him with your own eyes? In this case, it is easy for you to destroy the Lord of the Sharks, so why bother to communicate with them repeatedly? Wouldn't it be easier to command the Shark troops after killing the Lord of the Sharks and replacing him?" Tang Wan said slowly.
Han Yingzhen sighed: "Indeed, what Miss Tang said is a huge crux of our organization, which is to use the merman army without being able to completely control this force. I have checked the entire history of China and Japan in dealing with the merman, and the history is strikingly similar. After that, the two Han Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, and Song dynasties all did similar things, but they all failed. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Central Plains attacked Goguryeo, and it was precisely because of the obstruction of the mermaids that the Central Plains army was defeated. The ideology of the merman is extremely strange, it cannot be conquered, it can only be equal to humans. When the two of you arrive at Mt. Fuji, we will explain it in detail. The knowledge of the merman I have come into contact with is only a drop in the bucket compared to the experts, and the explanations in some places are even more contrary to the correct answers, which will inevitably mislead Miss Tang, ashamed, ashamed!"
History is an endless loop, and the problems encountered by the ancients will recur now, but in a different form.
It is impossible for humans to reach the point of omniscience and understanding of the world in which they live, and in that case, it will not be far from human migration to another planet.
"Well, I'm looking forward to what the experts have to say. Second, what are the Japanese experts waiting for? What kind of help can the two of us bring to the experts' research when we arrive at Mt. Fuji? How can we know that we are not aiding in the abuse? I was trapped in the mirror room at the same time as the souls of the great figures of your country, and there were exchanges during this time, so I really disagree with the tactics of your government, and this is the main reason why we have not been able to decide to rush to Mt. Fuji for a long time. Miss Han, I believe in your personality and your courage to stick a knife in the ribs for your friend, but the military order is like a mountain, once Shangfeng gives a death order, even if you break your bones to save you, you can't stop it, right? In this way, Mr. Xia and I are equivalent to sending ourselves to the guillotine with our own hands, isn't it ridiculous?" Tang Wan asked again.
Han Yingzhen seemed to have been prepared, and when Tang Wan finished speaking, he immediately reached into his arms and took out a palm-sized waterproof plastic bag from the inner pocket of his jacket, with a folded letterhead inside.
"There is an amnesty here, the contents of which have been printed, only the name of the person who was ad hoc is empty. If you both agree to go to Mt. Fuji, I'll fill in their names right away. The amnesty decree was issued by the emperor himself and was valid for three hundred and sixty days. In the meantime, if anything goes wrong, this amnesty will work. If the Japanese police do not comply, they will be severely punished by the Japanese Imperial Family. With it, even if I die in the melee, the two of you can still get out with the amnesty. Han Yingzhen said.
In response to Tang Wan's question, she made full preparations and showed quite clever negotiation skills.
Tang Wan said the third point: "Miss Han, if Mr. Xia and I join your plan and work for you, what can we get?
Han Yingzhen breathed a sigh of relief, because what Tang Wan said was only about personal "treatment".
"Okay, let's talk about treatment—" Han Yingzhen replied.
I didn't listen to the rules, I walked to the message board in the doorway, grabbed a piece of chalk, and wrote a few words on it.
"Things but not things" - that's what I wrote.
Of course, the "thing" here has nothing to do with material things and material desires, but refers to what we are doing in front of us.
Tang Wan and I are both in the struggle between the United States and Japan, and both sides have their own advantages, which will help us in the future direction of life. Whichever one you choose, it's better than going it alone.
On the surface, the two sides are fighting for the two of us, and if we think deeply, what do they each want? Is it just two thaumaturgists from China? Is it just to reduce two enemies and two more arms in the future great power war? Wrong, I know that the answer must be wrong.
I knew that there must be something in me and Tang Wan that they wanted so badly but didn't have—what could it be?
As I reflected on my upbringing, I realized that I was no longer than any other thaumaturgist. Whether it is skills, experience, future, IQ, family background, connections, money, and support, I am far inferior to a young talent from the Yanwang Mansion in the capital like Yan Gexing. As for Tang Wan, it is even more lackluster. Moreover, if it weren't for the destruction of the mirror room by the Japanese submarine launch*, she would still be confined to the bottom of the sea.
"What do the Japanese want?" I said, turning my back to the living room, scrutinizing the words I had written.
"Go beyond the surface and get to the heart of the matter!" I admonished myself.
If you want to do this, you have to "know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains". Instead of envying the fish in the abyss, it is better to return to the net. When you actually go to Japan, you will understand everything. If you are just afraid, it will inevitably cause the illusion that Ye Gong is a good dragon and scratches his boots.
"Mr. Xia, Miss Tang has already decided, I don't think you will refuse, right?" Han Yingzhen shouted loudly in the living room.
I turned around slowly, quietly looking for Tang Wan's eyes.
Tang Wan understood, sat up straight on the sofa, and greeted my examination generously.
"Do you want me to avoid it first and give the two of you a time to discuss it alone?" Han Yingzhen asked.
"Not necessarily. Tang Wan and I spoke in unison.
I immediately added, "Whatever Miss Tang promises, I will do it." Her decision was a decision made by the two of us. ”
Tang Wan shut up for the time being, and when I finished speaking, she calmly added to me word by word: "Working together, advancing and retreating together, this is the principle of doing things for the two of us." Therefore, it can also be said that no matter what Mr. Xia promised you, it is equivalent to a joint decision between the two of us. Miss Han, next time you don't have to go so far back and forth, please treat me and Mr. Xia as one person. Just ask once, no need to repeat. ”
Han Ying's true color changed, and she gasped.
She thought that Tang Wan and I did not "cross the line", which was equivalent to taking advantage of the opportunity. However, saying this at the same time as Tang Wan is tantamount to a death sentence for her wishful thinking.
"Hehe, hehe. Han Yingzhen laughed a few times to hide her unhappiness and put the emperor's pardon on the coffee table.
"Miss Han, please drink coffee, it tastes good. Tang Wan picked up the cup.
Since Tang Wan nodded, our trip to Mount Fuji in Japan is a foregone conclusion. This time, it was also a great challenge for me to meet the strongest local masters in the place where Japanese thaumaturgists practiced, just like the Chinese army's 19th Route Army's broadsword team faced the Japanese 38 big cover with bayonets.
In the eyes of many Chinese people, there will never be any possibility of peaceful coexistence between China and Japan, and some can only be a "either-or" relationship of conquering, being conquered, being defeated, and being defeated.
Therefore, without thunderbolts, it is impossible to talk about peace. Peace is fought for with a sword and a gun, not a grovel to be returned.
"The two of you really gave me a lot of face to be able to agree to the emperor's request. Next, I will arrange the details of the two of you to Japan, and you don't have to worry about anything, I believe that within 48 hours, everyone will land at Mt. Fuji Airport at the same time. Han Yingzhen said.
She achieved the main purpose of the trip, and the business was settled, which was a joy. On the contrary, she witnessed the unbreakable relationship between me and Tang Wan, which was sad.
Between joy and sorrow, like people drinking ice on a cold night, they know whether they are warm or cold.
"Thank you, and I'm looking forward to meeting the thaumaturgical masters of Mt. Fuji in seclusion. Tang Wan responded politely.
"Well, I'll arrange it. Han Yingzhen got up, glanced at me meaningfully, and then hung his head and went out.
I looked at her rickety back, and I could feel her sadness.
The door closed, and Han Yingzhen let out an earth-shattering sigh from outside.
"It wasn't my intention to make her so. Tang Wan whispered.
"This is the truth, and the sooner she knows, the more it will help her let go of her illusions and do more important things. These things have nothing to do with you, so don't take them personally. I explained softly, so as not to cause Tang Wan's inner self-reproach.
However, Tang Wan's expression was extremely uneasy, and she turned her head, stared at me fixedly, and was silent.
That kind of expression made me feel distressed: "Tang Wan, what do you want to say, even if you say it, isn't it uncomfortable to keep it in your heart?"
Tang Wan replied thoughtfully: "Tianshi, each of us does not exist independently, we each have heavy responsibilities on our shoulders, and some things have to be done with all our might. A person's life and death, love and hate are small, but the country, nation, people's livelihood and people's movement are great. So, don't pay too much to me, I can't afford it. During the time I was confined to the Mirror Room, your life must have changed a lot, and you met different girls. If you have a story, don't keep me in mind. ”
I understood her intentions, but this kind of thing alone could not calm the blockage in her heart.
"Tang Wan, we don't need to discuss similar issues. What should be said and thought has been said as early as the First Hospital of Jinan and the old house of Qushuiting Street. What others think is their business, thousands of mountains and rivers, thousands of hardships, I am only here for you. In my heart, you have never been replaced. I said resolutely.
Emotional matters cannot be forced, once determined, they will go to the black, to the end, until the end of life. If I could change it, I wouldn't be bothering to find out what happened to the mirror room.
Tang Wan's face softened slightly, and there was a bright brilliance in his eyes.
"In that case, I promise you. After the completion of the great work, no matter how many high-ranking officials can't keep me. I am willing to follow you, retreat to the old streets and alleys of Jinan City, where the springs converge, and never talk about flashy wealth and wealth, only talk about ordinary life. She said.
This is what I want to hear and want the most, and as long as I have these words, my heart is 100% settled.
There has been no news from Thomas, and Tang Wan and I can only judge that the Americans are too proud and don't need our help.
