Chapter 20 On the eve of negotiations
Sure enough, when a new day arrived, Edjo and his two assistants also arrived at Linglan Star, a female god with a slightly haggard face, her appearance was unremarkable, and no one would notice her if she fell on Earth, at most she thought she was a mourned woman. The other is a genderless little alien who joined in to complete the social practice homework during the holiday.
This little alien is from the "Jeanze D06s star", the appearance is generally humanoid, with arms and legs, but the head looks a little strange, although there is a nose and a mouth, but there are no eyes, there are only two concave holes where the eyes should have been, and some fluff can be faintly seen inside, which can receive the faint energy emitted by different objects, so that he knows what is nearby. Although he is still young, because he comes from an advanced civilization, he thinks he is very capable, so he chose Linglan Xing, who is at war, to do social practice. Their spaceship was suspended on a stone that had not yet been covered by sand, and the black rock that had not yet been sunburned suddenly covered with the shadow of the ship, probably not too much of a day today.
Once the ship was parked, the three of them teleported to the rocks together.
"Okay, then let's continue to confirm our respective tasks, Echen, you come first."
"Okay!" The little alien responded positively, after all, it wanted to get some more practice points, "My mission is to contact the anonymous person who sent us the video evidence, find her, and dig up more new information from her to guide our next move!" ”
"Good." Edjo complimented, "Sigern, what about you?" ”
"I ......" didn't seem to sleep well, and Ms. Sigurne was a little sluggish.
"Don't just remember to look for your lost husband this time!"
"Ahh No, it won't! She seemed to be awakened, "Oh yes, my mission is... It is to ensure the safety of the dust, stand by in the small spaceship, and help the dust at any time! ”
"That's right, and then my mission is to mediate the Rebels' participation in compensation negotiations to get the planet up and running as quickly as possible. On the side of the expeditionary force, I made a phone call yesterday, but it had already been arranged, and I didn't expect that the top management of the blue python would suddenly cooperate with us. Edjo sighed slightly, "Let's get moving, I hope it's not just another plot of the Blue Python." ”
Soon, they carried out their respective missions, and it didn't take long for Sally to receive a message from Dust in the prisoner of war camp, hoping to meet and have more exchanges. But she hasn't responded yet, after all, it's too dangerous, and meeting with the Anti-War Association at this critical juncture will definitely raise suspicions, and Dironga and other members of the Purge Bureau are probably investigating who contacted the Anti-War Association and created this public opinion.
"Alas......" Sally was about to turn off her communication equipment and go on patrol when she received a message from Zane.
"See you at the watchtower."
Zane really came and went without a trace, and the prisoner of war camp was said to be in it, which was quite scary when you thought about it. Maybe one day he will be killed by him, and he doesn't know. That's right, even if he has a certain cooperative relationship with Zane now, but because Zane was a member of the Blue Python Zero before, Sally can't help but be jealous of him.
When he arrives at the watchtower, he finds Zane waiting there.
"What about the original guards?" Sally asked.
"I changed the electronic schedule, and there was a gap at this point in time." Zane pulled a swivel chair for Sally, "Please take a seat." ”
"Let's talk about it." Sally didn't dare to sit down easily.
"The people from the Anti-War Association have arrived today, and I see they are sending a message saying they are looking for you?"
"Yes."
"It's better not to see it, the Purging Bureau will definitely strictly investigate the people who set off public opinion in the next two days."
Sally agreed to Zane's request, but then she was going to meet the guy named "Dusty" instead. After all, he and everything in the prisoner of war camp are under Zane's full control, and at this time, he must establish some contact with the outside world, otherwise he and the entire prisoner of war camp may become Zane's puppet.
Speaking of contact with the outside world, she might be able to go to Chen Linhao, maybe he still has a way to free the POW camp from Zane's control. It's just that Chen Linhao won't help this in vain, he must find some valuable information to exchange with him.
"Do you know what the Anti-War Society is doing here?" Sally asked.
"I don't know. But I see that one of them is negotiating with different rebel forces, and the other two are flying around all the time, they should be looking for you, they may have some equipment to locate you, but it needs to be within a certain distance to be effective. Zane thought for a moment and added, "You don't get any information from me, and I just have some sparrows, or I stole them from Dironga." So don't think I'm going to name something useful for you to trade with Chen Linhao. ”
"Since you don't know anything, then I think it's better for you to meet the people of the Anti-War Association, anyway, you are already a suspect, just be careful." Although Zane saw her purpose, Sally was not in a hurry, and it naturally took a little bit of trouble to deal with the former members of Armed Zero.
Anyway, Sally's words are somewhat reasonable, they really need to know more information now, otherwise they will always be in a passive state, but Sally is not convenient to go out in person, but it is himself, anyway, it has been exposed, and it is nothing to meet casually.
"That's a good idea, let me reply to the news."
At the same time, Aechen and Sigern's spaceship.
"Teacher Sigern, we've already used up half of our energy, and now it's dusty, let's fly up and let the ship absorb some light energy."
"We'll go up when there's a quarter left." Sigurn watched intently at the radar and the news from the reconnaissance plane. She didn't have much useful information, so she had to go planet by planet to find traces of her husband.
Eichen sighed, it actually hoped that it could find the bases of the various armies on Linglan and take some practice photos. Now it seems that these photos are most likely limited to the facilities on this ship. Because the window was full of sand and dust, and it was yellow, he couldn't even take pictures of the scenery.
In this way, Aichen sat down on the sofa depressedly, lifted Erlang's legs boredly, and lazily reached for the communicator a little farther away.
Suddenly, the communicator rang and there was new information!
He came to his senses in an instant, and a tiger pounced on him, and when he opened it, it was a reply from another person. It's a little strange, but the man explained it in the letter very thoughtfully.
"You can meet at any time, and another message has been sent to you about the specific location of the meeting. I'll reply to you with this device just to be on the safe side, and the two of us will just be in touch like this in the future. "The communicator of the dust vibrates gently, because of the special body structure of the Zexing people, the electromagnetic waves that transmit information will be converted into different strengths and types of energy on his communicator, so that the Ze people can "see" that when these energies are output in a centralized manner, it will inevitably cause the vibration of the communicator.
"Mr. Sigourne!" Echen ran over excitedly, "Go to this place!" The man promised to meet! ”
In the yellow sand, the spaceship, which had been moving rapidly, slowly slowed down, turned around, and sped forward again in another direction......
Zane's location is the ruins of the spaceship left behind after the battle between the Legion of Dawn and the expeditionary force Jason, because it is a mess, and no one has the heart to clean it up, so it has become a shelter for Zane and some refugees, as well as different resistance squads. In the vast desert and bloody wars, such a place is almost a paradise, a fairyland on earth. Luckily, there was plenty of food inside, and the expeditionary force abandoned the place and chose to leave without noticing them.
In the ruins of the ship, a ravine was formed between the two huge ships next to each other, the yellow sand was covered with footprints, and the broken hull on both sides were some small traders and vendors, some of whom were from civilian backgrounds, but they were quite skilled in collecting spaceship supplies, so they had a lot of surplus materials to exchange for other items. There are also some people from wealthy families who brought a lot of treasures with them when they fled, but unfortunately now they can only be sold at a low price in exchange for food for the family.
Further inside the ship, the vendors' stalls gradually thinned out and were replaced by small tents erected by the Linglan people, some of which were stained and some of them were full of holes, but some of them looked well-preserved and brightly colored, and the people who supported them were inevitably jealous.
Further down, when the ship's ruins were first used, few people dared to go, but now, these well-preserved rooms were filled with tall, burly Linglan people and people with weapons in their hands, but they didn't seem to be very strong.
One of the rooms was Zane's, this one faced the hallway, which he could walk in all directions, and the north-facing corridor in the middle led to the dining room, which was run by a woman named Ninglewood.
Zane was waiting for dust in the restaurant at the moment, because of the limited energy, the restaurant that was supposed to be brightly lit was now only turned on by a ring of dark red night lights around it, and a ring of yellowish energy-saving lights in the center of the restaurant.
In addition to Zane, there are also many strong men who drink and wrestle their wrists here, and the ring in the center of the restaurant is a never-ending "afternoon tea battle", where those who insist on holding the fight for 24 hours can eat and drink for nothing for a week. However, it cannot be taken out. At the far north end is the stage set up by Ninglewood, which sometimes plays energetic rock music, sometimes elegant classical music, and what is put depends on Ninglewood's mood, but the music on it never stops.
The unworldly Eichen looked at the absent-minded Sigern, then at the refugees outside the window, and swallowed nervously. Just as he was about to beckon Sigern to disembark with him, Sigurn spoke first.
"Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you here."
This sentence almost made Echen die on the spot. He's alone...... How dare you go to such a place!
But... In order to get the best practical results, I am out of the way!
Ai Chen turned around, smiled and said, "No problem, you have a good rest here." ”
In this way, he got off the ship of the Anti-War Society and stepped on the soft and hot desert, and the sand particles blown by the wind hit his face, causing him to feel a burst of pain. In order not to let fear swallow him, Ai Chen had to move forward mechanically.
As the ravine got closer and closer, the noisy hawkers became louder and louder, and with the sound of the whistling wind, Echen suddenly spit out his breakfast with a "wow". He was too nervous.
"It doesn't look like a professional."
The sudden sound from his side made Dust retreat in fright, and finally sat down on the sand.
It was a large blue lizard with a brown monster behind it.
"Blue python clears the situation, Dironga. Behind is my assistant D. "It pulls the dust up.
It's over, and as soon as I came over, I ran into the blue python person! Well, in fact, it's the same for Ai Chen, he is scared to death!
"Looks like you've got in touch with someone who sent a video to the Anti-War Society, otherwise how could you come to such a place?" Dirunga's tone was somewhat questioning.
"I, I'm actually here to practice on vacation, so in fact, I just came down to take pictures and go back to write a holiday report." As he spoke, Ai Chen took out a round ball, and after pressing the power button, the ball was suspended in front of everyone.
"Let Zezawa D06s star shooting equipment, 360 degrees without dead ends! A good helper for your holiday practice! He forced a sense of humor to hide his panic.
Di Longa sneered disdainfully and stretched out one of his front paws: "Routine inspection, documents and communication equipment are handed over." ”
Ai Chen didn't expect the other party to come to this trick, and it seemed that he couldn't hide it.
"You guessed it." Ai Chen began to imitate the tone of a character in the movie he watched before departure, "In this case, let's open the skylight and say something bright." ”
"Oh?" Such a change of attitude is interesting for Dironga.
"I did come out on vacation to practice, and I am neutral about your war......"
Before Aichen could finish speaking, Dironga interrupted him, "Who contacted the Anti-War Association?" ”
Because Di Longa didn't listen to what he said, Ai Chen was still a little angry, but he could only answer the other party honestly: "Just go in and know." ”
In this way, they entered the ravine that just sheltered the wind and sand, passed through the small tents of the vendors and the slums, and after asking a few people, they followed the dirty corridor to a restaurant called "War Afternoon Tea".
"Heh......" Dironga smiled at the name, "D, your favorite tabloid probably comes from the owner of this restaurant." ”
D also noticed the name of the restaurant, but it was more concerned about Zane sitting inside.
"Chief, Zane." It whispered.
"See." Di Longa replied in a low voice as he followed Ai Chen, "Don't act rashly, this restaurant is not simple. ”
Echen wanted to hear what the two were muttering, but under pressure, he didn't even dare to turn his face sideways, and came to Zane like a robot the whole time.
And Dirunga and D, who were behind Ae Chen, looked at Zane for a long time early, and the four of them got together, and the aura on Dirunga and Zane made the strong men nearby all hold wine glasses and stay away.
"A little business, there is no need to involve a student who comes to practice during the holidays." With that, Dironga gave D a look, and D understood and took Echen aside.
"I knew that you would definitely follow the Anti-War Association, so I specifically picked this place." With that, Zane raised his mechanical arm and pointed to the ring behind him with his thumb, "It's not proper to fight in other places in this restaurant except above the ring." ”
Dironga looked at Zane, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showed an incomprehensible smile, and walked into the ring......
