"She doesn't keep a photo and doesn't want to take a photo with you, but also to protect you."

Ye Xiao picked up the red wine glass, shook it, took a sip, and said to Jiang Ning: "It's just that your mother and daughter are too similar, people who know your mother, as long as they see you, they can know that you are her daughter." ”

"Do you know where my mom went?"

Where did her mother go, it was a question that had been hanging in Jiang Ning's heart.

"I don't know."

Ye Xiao shook his head and replied helplessly: "Except that your mother sent me that golden playing card and asked me to protect your safety, we have not been in touch." ”

Jiang Ning sighed lightly, and a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

Dinner was spent in Qin Shi and Shi Niang Long Jingyun's gossip about Ye Xiao's past, as well as Ye Xiao's listing of various troubles in Qin Shi.

Simple but welcoming.

After dinner, Jiang Ning was dragged to the cabin by Long Jingyun to discuss the topic of makeup.

On the topic of "dressing up", women can have endless words to talk about.

On the deck of the freighter, Qin Shi leaned on the side of the ship, watching the waves lap on the reef layer by layer, throwing up two or three meters high waves.

"What do you want to ask here, boy?"

Ye Xiao walked up to Qin Shi and handed him a can of soda.

Qin Shi took the soda that Ye Xiao handed him, looked at his master, and asked, "You really don't know where Jiang Ning's mother went?" ”

"I don't know."

Ye Xiao replied with a serious face: "However, I have a guess that Yulia's disappearance may be related to an operation she participated in back then. ”

"What action?" Qin Shi asked Ye Xiao.

"I still remember when you watched "The Avengers", you sighed that if there is really a space weapon support system like 'Veronica', then no matter where you go to perform combat missions, you don't need to worry about the lack of weapons and ammunition."

Ye Xiao did not answer Qin Shi's question directly, but recalled some of the things Qin Shi said when he was watching a movie on the island.

"Hey, that's all nonsense I said when I watched a movie, and I was only 14 years old at the time, and although I had been on a real battlefield, I had shot and killed people, but I hadn't seen a good movie that well.

When I saw Iron Man's equipment descend from orbit to the ground, I thought, if my mercenary team can have this kind of weapon support system when fighting in Africa, maybe the team will not be trapped in that village due to lack of weapons and medicine......"

Qin Shi was reminded of Ye Xiao's memories of the past, and when he just said that his words were just cranky thoughts when watching a movie, he suddenly understood what his master wanted to say.

"Imagine boldly, and be careful to confirm."

Ye Xiao pulled the tab of the soda can in his hand, looked at the container ship that was entering the port on the sea in the distance, and said: "Sometimes, the things in the movie may not be all lies. ”

"Is there really a weapon support system in this world like 'Veronica' that runs in space orbit and can quickly land anywhere as needed?!"

Qin Shi's eyes widened and he looked at his master in disbelief.

"In reality, that system is called 'Prometheus,' and when we learned about it, it was still experimental. But it appeared much earlier than 'Veronica' in "The Avengers". Ye Xiao replied.

Qin Shi stared straight at Ye Xiao, and after confirming that he was not lying to himself, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Master, if you tell me now that there really is a Stark industry in this world, I won't be surprised." ”

"Whether Stark Industries really exists, I don't know."

Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "But I know that there is a weapon company called 'Odin' in this world, and 'Prometheus' is from this company. ”

"Odin Arms Company? The weapons company that developed the 'Crucible' and participated in the tender for the Ministry of Defense of the Free Federation of Amilik? Qin Shi asked.

"Yes."

Ye Xiao nodded.

"What is the origin of this company that has developed such a science fiction weapon and equipment, a microwave weapon weapon with a destructive power equivalent to a nuclear bomb, and a space weapon support system that can operate autonomously in space orbit?" Qin Shi asked Ye Xiao.

"I don't know exactly where it came from."

Ye Xiao replied: "The Odin Arms Company was founded at the beginning of the 21st century, and it was just a humble studio when it was first established.

At its inception, it went to the ShotShow that year, where it showed the public a new type of rifle cartridge made of polymer with a caliber of 6.8×43mm.

Marston Okly, who was not yet the president of the Odin Arms Company at the time, stood behind the display case and pitched the new rifle cartridge to everyone.

But at that time, everyone thought of Marston Okley as a psychopath, because there were no weapons capable of using this new type of rifle bullet at that time.

No one would have imagined that 6.8mm caliber ammunition would become the 'ideal caliber' in the mouth of the Ministry of Defense of the Free Federation of Amelik today.

No one would have imagined that a weapons studio, which could only get a booth in the corner of the ShotShow, would become a superweapon company that surpassed General Electric.

No one thought that the 'salesman' who shouted hard at the booth and no one paid attention to it back then would be the president of the Odin Arms Company. ”

"So the action that Jiang Ning's mother participated in back then is related to the 'Prometheus' developed by Odin Weapons Company?"

Qin Shi thought carefully, a bold conjecture suddenly flashed in his mind, looked at Ye Xiao, and said, "'Prometheus' won't be in Jiang Ning's mother's hands, right?" ”

"Jiang Ning's mother, named Rosie, codenamed 'Yulia', was a member of 'BaseRoom'."

"'BaseRoom', 'basement'? What kind of organization is this, and how come I've never heard of it? ”

"You haven't heard of it because it's gone."

Ye Xiao explained to Qin Shi: "The 'basement' is an organization that is not affiliated with any country and has the nature of employment.

It has a total of 16 members, 16 of whom come from different countries and have different skin colors. Although the 'basement' is not affiliated with any country, it has close cooperation with the governments of many countries, and specializes in handling some dirty and black work for the governments of those countries.

The development of 'Prometheus' by Odin Arms Company was originally a top secret, but it is not known who leaked the information, which instantly attracted the attention of many countries.

It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of space weapon support system, which can operate autonomously in space orbit and can quickly land at any point in the world at any time according to the needs of combat operations, will subvert the way the world fights. ”
