Chapter 022 Mu Ran looked back

For a few days, nothing happened, and Rome went to his work and did his thing, and the anxiety in his heart gradually disappeared. But how could he forget those people and events twenty-five years ago?

In April of that year, he came from country A and set foot on the eastern land of country B, and he was very surprised. According to Ye Axe, although country B has changed a lot in recent centuries, it cannot get rid of its poverty, backwardness, and dirtiness. There is no prosperity and prosperity there, the only thing that is productive is people, not material things for human enjoyment.

But when he stepped off the flying machine, he saw a sense of prosperity in his eyes. Needless to say, the towering edifices in the distance; Needless to say, people talk and laugh, wear high-end clothes, wear jewelry and hand accessories, and play with strange mobile phones and computers; In terms of this endless eastern landing, compared with the W landing field, which is known as the world's first in country A, it is several points better than the W landing field in terms of scale, momentum and frequency of aircraft taking off and landing.

"No wonder, my father wants to invest in country B and engage in some kind of ecological development. Because country B is a rich country, not a poor country, and even richer than country A!" He said in his heart.

He carried his heavy luggage on his back, and walked towards the exit with a very surprised and confused gaze. From a distance, he saw that outside the exit, many Orientals were smiling and waving their flags to the travelers at the exit. At this time, his grandfather's words rang in his ears again.

"Because they are poor, and because they are self-contained, the people there are all flattering to foreigners. Seeing foreigners, especially people from country A with white skin, yellow hair, blue eyes, and long eyelashes, they are even more admired. Some of them will look at you, greet you, and approach you as if they were optimistic about Leu's star. , but in reality they are either thieves, or they are harborers or ill-intentioned people who are more terrible than thieves. So, after you go, you must always be vigilant!"

With a sense of yes and wrong for his grandfather's words, he and the travelers cautiously walked out of the exit of the landing field.

"Hey, Hello!" A loud voice came.

A young man in his thirties who seemed to be much younger than him, but was actually not too young, greeted him and approached him enthusiastically. In his eyes, this young man is tall and handsome, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, although his skin is yellow, and his clothes are not so luxurious, but he is quite energetic!

"You're Rome from country A, aren't you?" The young man asked politely with a smile, and reached for his heavy luggage as he spoke.

Maybe it was the surprise of not being prepared for a while, or maybe it was the grandfather's words that were confirmed at this moment, and they stared at each other, ran around, and said loudly: "What are you going to do?

The young man smiled and said, "Ah, I forgot to introduce, I am a colleague of your father's Roman Harlem unit, my name is Qiao Xing, and it was your father who asked me to pick you up." ”

After the young man finished speaking, he shook hands with him warmly and said in pure English, "Your arrival is really gyeat!"

At this moment, Rome felt very guilty, he blushed and smiled and said to Qiao Xing: "Ah, I'm sorry, I just misunderstood!"

"It's okay, there's nothing wrong with being vigilant. However, it is now the 26th century, and country B is rich, but in the eyes of Westerners, especially people in country A, it seems that it has always stayed at the starting line of the 20th century. It's kind of incredible!"

Qiao Xing was neither humble nor arrogant, and his words all carried the spirit of self-esteem, self-confidence and self-improvement of the people of Oriental B, which made Rome in turn self-deprecating himself for his own filthy soul.

The two of them sat in a Maxima car, and before they returned to the unit, the two talked and laughed and became good friends.

In the following six months of working together, this pair of young people, sincere collaborators from the East and the West, are like-minded and cooperate tacitly, and have made remarkable contributions to the development of the ecological group. However, it was in the process of this cooperation that Roman Haring felt what he considered to be a potential danger.

One day, Rome stood at his father's desk in Roman Harlem, and listened to his father say very seriously: "I am going back to country A, and everything here will be left to you." Do you have what it takes to be a good family?"

"Please rest assured, father, with such an excellent assistant as Qiao Xin, the East-West Ecological Cooperation Group will be better in the future than it is now!"

Rome is right. From a philosophical point of view, things are constantly evolving. Nothing, including people, including the East-West ecological group, cannot forever stop at the original base point. Of course, from the two directions of good and bad, it is possible to get better or worse, not certain, let alone absolute, because there are too many human factors in this.

But Roman Harlem affirmed it absolutely. He said, "You can't be the head of this house, and you can't be the head of this house." Based on my observation of you, you are far inferior to Qiao Xing in terms of knowledge, ability, and level!"

"Wouldn't that be better?"

"No! you can't control him. I can conclude that it won't be half a year after I'm gone, or either your place will be taken by Qiao Xing, or," he paused again when he said this.

"Or what?" Rome asked.

Roman Haring was silent for a long time, and said to himself: "Instead of letting you, let him"

"Say, why are you spitting?"

"I don't say it, and I don't want to say it. Anyway, I'll let him disappear before I go. ”

"Daddy!" Rome yelled, "Don't do anything stupid!"

"It's not what I'm going to do, it's what your grandfather wants me to do!

It happened in the miserable winter of that year---

Qiao Xin was instructed by the company's headquarters to go to the west to investigate the ecological balance. For three days in a row, he climbed mountains and waded through rivers and braved the wind and snow to inspect three famous mountains and rivers that are famous internationally and interstellarly.

On that day, on his way back, he stayed in a small town inn at the foot of a famous mountain to sort out the research materials.

Since there is no heat at all in winter, there is no light at all, there is no morning at all, and there is no noon and afternoon at all. Twenty-four hours a day, the whole town seems to sink into night, fog, and dusk. The window lattice is dark, and nothing can be distinguished.

Qiao Xin sat in the dark and cold room for a long time and wrote for a long time, and at the same time froze for a long time. He felt cold and stiff all over his body, so he went out for a walk alone, wanting to be active and warm, and then went back to the house to continue writing. Because, the chairman of the board of directors, Roman Haring, called and asked him to return to the company within three days with the summary of the examination.

George was so focused on his work that he forgot and didn't even know it was late at night. He walked through the streets of a quiet town, and he couldn't see a single light. Suddenly, in the darkness ahead, two lights came, and he closed his eyes, and before he could open them, he was dragged into a car by someone else. Immediately after, his eyes and his entire head, and even his entire body were blindfolded, tied, and unable to move

One day, two days, three days passed, and there was no news of Qiao Xin. Roman Harlem sent people to look for it, and Rome personally went to the town inn to check it, but found nothing but a pen, a ruler, and a bag of luggage. Then the police also intervened in the investigation, but it was also fruitless.

However, Rome knew that he was the one who drove the car that hijacked Qiao Xin.

Later, the Roman Harlem met and said: "I suspect, and the police also suspect, that Qiao Xin fled with the examination materials." Because, this town and the famous mountains and rivers he examined are only one step away from the land of countries C and D. ”

Now, Rome never imagined that a tabloid newspaper, which was trying to divert people's attention, would take trouble to pull it out and cause the police to track it down. It's no wonder that he doesn't feel frightened!

When he thought of this, he felt bad to himself. As the saying goes, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. Don't look at the police not looking for him now, but once the day comes to find him, maybe it's too late.

So, late one night, he actually walked into the computer room and turned on the video screen of the conversation with the old man, Roman Harlem.
