Nishizawa Imperial Palace.

Scotti sat in front of the desk, looking at the extra interview fee in her account, speechless for a long time.

I have to say that the Blackstone Research Institute really maintains almost strict fairness in terms of transactions - they charge a ridiculously expensive fee when they provide services, and they are horribly black, but when it is their turn to pay, they are also generous.

And they don't just give money, they also settle organizational contributions or personal merit points based on the positive impact of public programs.

The latter has a great role, which is directly related to her account permissions and the limited number of various transcendent items.

Although on the interface of Shikoti, her personal merit value settlement is still "review status", but if there is no surprise, after this wave of review is passed, her authority can most likely be transferred from the first level to the second level.

This made her involuntarily look forward to it a little more.

As for the anger at the beginning? Well, Scottie had to admit that after discovering that she was not betrayed, but specially selected to be entrusted with the task, the grievances and anger in her heart have been soothed somewhere.

There is even a faint feeling, the joy of being recognized and appreciated.

- The human mentality is so amazing.

"Your Highness...... Your Highness? ”

In my ears came the soft call of Registrar Alice.

Scotti froze her mind, gathered her mind, raised her head and sat upright, and put on her usual gentle smile: "I'm sorry, Alice, I'm a little distracted. ”

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have bothered you to think." Alice bowed respectfully, "But, Your Highness, our Councillor Peggy, who is in charge of the propaganda department, has been waiting at the door for ten minutes.

"May I let him in? Or do you need to ask him to leave under an excuse? ”

One of the duties of the clerk was to inform visitors of their visits, and to guide them into the main hall with the consent of the eldest daughter—although the Nishizawa Imperial Family was a mascot, it still had the right to dominate the private space.

However, it was the working hours of the eldest daughter of the Emperor, and the visitor was a member of the Cabinet who was actually in charge of the empire, so in principle, she should not refuse the visit of Congressman Peggy.

But if Scotti really doesn't want to see the other party, there is still a way to refuse-it's a big deal to lie that she is not feeling well, and everything will be discussed later.

But Scotty thought for a moment, then smiled, "Please come in, Councillor Peggy." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

There is no point in running away.

Since she told Yan Luge that she would be responsible for solving her country's internal problems, she would not run away.

A few minutes later, Councillor Peggy entered the main hall.

It was a gray-haired lady of about sixty years of age, short and emaciated, so that the suit made for the parliamentarians was worn loosely over her, as if it were a trembling skeleton wrapped inside.

She walked up to Scotty's seat and pushed the square glasses on the bridge of her nose with her right ring finger, her gaze behind the lenses serious, as if she were looking at a disobedient child.

"Your Highness." She frowned, her voice a little questioning.

"Councillor Peggy, good afternoon." Ignoring the other party's bad attitude, Scotti just made a gentle gesture of invitation, "Please be seated." This is the mountain flower tea that my Uncle Three Emperors brought back from Mount Nebulol, please try it. ”

Councillor Peggy wanted to refuse, but the clerk of the eldest daughter had already brought her a chair, so she sat down and raised her hand to take the teacup handed by Scotty.

She took a sip politely, and found that the light green tea was filled with a fragrance that she had never tasted, and after taking a sip, she only felt that it was refreshing, her internal organs were nourished, and her brain seemed to have become a lot clearer.

This surprised the well-informed Congressman Peggy as well.

What did the eldest daughter of the emperor just say?

This tea ...... What is it called...... Tea?

Mountain...... Flower...... Tea?

This is Congressman Peggy's gaze gradually becoming hollow and dull, like an old man with Alzheimer's disease.

She entered a strange state.

Her mind became clear, and everything in front of her became extremely clear, from the clothes worn by the eldest daughter to the documents randomly placed on her desk, she could see everything clearly and remember it clearly.

But her thinking has become stagnant, she seems to have lost the ability to think independently, and can only passively accept information from the outside world, without actively exploring and questioning anything.

She seemed to have forgotten why she was sitting in the palace of the eldest daughter.

"Councillor Peggy." Scotti called out with a smile and gestured to her in a friendly manner, "Are you here to convey to me the contents of today's emergency cabinet meeting?" ”

Congressman Peggy bowed his head and found that he was holding a page in his hand, which was the minutes of a cabinet meeting.

Where did this paper come from? Did she bring it here? Or did the eldest daughter of the emperor stuff it into her hand after she sat down?

Congressman Peggy didn't think about it at all.

She merely mechanically, following Scotty's prompt, began to read out the words on the paper: "On April 13, the 1929th emergency meeting of the Cabinet was held, with 324 participants and 0 absentees. The main content of the conference was the discussion of transcendent affairs......

"Given the unstable situation in the neighboring Nile Commonwealth, and the suspected transcendent battle that broke out in Moon Gate Square last night, there are ......

"Councillor Willow proposes to assess the threat of the Transcendent......

"Congressman Peggy proposes to strengthen the guidance of public opinion and disclose to the public the existence of the transcendent in an appropriate and timely manner......"

Poeti asked, duly and pointedly, "Do you mean that I should cooperate with the Cabinet in its propaganda work?" ”

Councillor Peggy numbly read the words on the paper: "...... If necessary, the members of the royal family can be coordinated to cooperate......"

Poeti asked, "So, when are we?" ”

Congressman Peggy read unconsciously: "...... In the near future, Congressman Peggy will organize relevant work ......"

Scotty lowered her eyes slightly, and a mocking smile curled into her lips.

What she gave to Councillor Peggy was not a mountain flower tea, but a "primary memory potion" made based on ancient books, which was a serious alchemy potion like the "Bronze Potion".

The main ingredients of the "Primary Memory Potion" are peacock green, crowtail roots, water lily petals, and morning dew, which will have a faint fragrance when drunk.

Ancient alchemists used it to aid learning - after drinking the "primary memory potion", the memory function area of the brain will become extremely active, so that it can be remembered, but the relative side effect is that the logical function area of the brain will become extremely sluggish during this time, completely losing the ability to think, and can only passively receive information, so the ancient alchemist will only use it in an absolutely safe environment.

After researching, Scotti found that this "primary memory potion" has another side effect, that is, if the person taking the drug in the "memory state" does not see a clear marker, it usually forgets the specific time.

Because in the "memory state", the text images seen by the drug user are directly "written" to the long-term memory area of the brain, like a file that has been dragged into the hard disk separately.

People who come out of this state will find themselves memorizing every word of the book, but not remembering what they read the book.

Is it today? Yesterday? Ten years ago? Or is it time to babble?

He won't know.

- Unless, while reading, he has a calendar and alarm clock on the side of the book that clearly indicates the time.

The basic logic and simple way of keeping time hidden in this potion gave the Scottica a chance to bug.

In other words, with the right practice, she can make the person who takes the drug remember "what is not from the book" and "a specific time".

In other words, she has limited access to a false memory in the mind of the person taking the drug.

With a smile on her lips, Scotti bent her fingers and tapped on the table.

Knock –

As if he had heard some command, Congressman Peggy, who was in a daze, suddenly came to his senses.

In front of her sat the smiling eldest daughter of the Emperor, while she had a cup of tea and a page of minutes of the meeting at her hand.

"Councillor Peggy, do you have anything to do with me?" Sitting in the main hall, the vase princess asked softly.

…… What's the matter?

Councillor Peggy was confused for a moment.

She seemed to be interviewed by the outside world because the eldest daughter of the emperor was talking to herself, so she came to Xingshi with some annoyance to ask about the crime...... Wrong......

Councillor Peggy recalls "real" memories – or memories that have just been implanted by Sycotty.

It seems that half a month ago, the day after the live broadcast of the suspected transcendent battle in the Nile Federation, she went straight to the Xizawa Palace after the emergency cabinet meeting, discussed some related matters with Shikoti, and finalized the plan that the Nishizawa royal family would come forward in the near future to initially disclose the existence of extraordinary forces to the public......

Yes, that's right.

She didn't come to ask the teacher to ask for guilt, because what Shi Curti did was something they had discussed before.

At this moment, Councilor Peggy's tightly knit brows opened slightly, and when he looked at the eldest daughter of the emperor who was sitting in a precarious position, his eyes were like looking at a well-behaved and obedient junior.

She cleared her throat and said in as calm a voice as possible : "That's right, I saw the program "Into the Extraordinary" announced on the Internet, which is likely to be edited with the previously secretly recorded material. However, you handled the show very well, and did not divulge real secrets, which is in line with the general direction of our publicity plan.

"So, I suggest that the calculation be ......"
