In the early morning, the sun clears the gloom of Langley Airport, where fighter jets and the world-famous Air Force One are parked.

Nate survived another day.

He looked at himself in the mirror and spat out his mouthwash.

Older people don't sleep very well, they often wake up in the middle of the night, then stay up for a long time, and then continue to sleep.

Nate washed his face with a towel, his wrinkled face and dry hands, even through the towel, gave him a feeling of disgust.

Especially when he saw the picture next to the mirror, which kept his younger self.

If you look at your current self in the mirror, you will understand how cruel the years are.

Nate put down the towel in his hand, turned around and walked outside, heading to Air Force One's cafeteria.

With an omelette, ham and a glass of warm milk on the table, that's Nate's breakfast.

In terms of food, he didn't show any luxury, mainly because at this age, his appetite was far less good than when he was younger.

Nate sat down, picked up his knife and fork in both hands, and saw the Secretary of State walking through the entrance of the dining room.

"You all go down."

The Secretary of State waved his hand to let the people around him leave the cafeteria, and he walked to the other side and said, "Mr. President, I just got a message from the CIA branch in Japan.

Dio fights the Emperor of the Shadows, and the reason for the conflict is over the altar. ”

"Yes."

There was no surprise on Nate's face, he didn't think that Dio and the Shadow Emperor would be able to make any peace with Qi.

Even an ordinary person like him, with a high position and power, will not easily compromise with others.

Not to mention, the Shadow Emperor didn't say a word and directly took Dior's altar away.

"How's the Emperor doing?"

"It is said that he was attacked by a sneak attack and fell into the downwind, but his life was unhindered, and Dio turned into a giant of light, and he could not kill the emperor who stayed in the shadow world by sneak attack."

The Secretary of State answered truthfully.

Nate cut the omelette with a knife, forked it up and put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly.

His mind fell into thinking, is there a bonus for the emperor to stay in the Shadow World?

This is noteworthy intelligence.

Nate didn't want to fight the Shadow Emperor, but he had to gather as much information as possible, and it wouldn't hurt to know more about him, "What information does Ned have?" ”

"There is no unusual intelligence, he is just dealing with domestic affairs, and according to the news that has come back, his popularity among the people has soared to unprecedented levels."

Nate was not surprised by the news, in Latin America, where a country compromised with the United States and cleaned up its bloc, the middle and lower classes were problematic if they did not support Ned.

"Let the intelligence officers choose fanatical advocates to approach Ned and integrate into the heart of his power."

"Yes."

"What about other countries?"

"They all sent people to Mexico City."

The Secretary of State replied to the information he had, "MI6 people are close to Ned in terms of pretense investments. ”

"Hmph, England."

Nate naturally knows that Britain's recent actions are to make it feel like a presence, and once the three powers really unite, Britain can sing the praises of the prime minister's diplomatic achievements.

It's just that this move is really good for the United States, and Nate didn't want to knock that one, and asked, "What about Takamahara's plan?" ”

The Secretary of State replied: "A recent smart armor program has made a major technological breakthrough due to the ghost monster, but according to Jack's information, in terms of chips, it is still a big problem. ”

"Then transfer the relevant materials to the United States and let the experimental team of Noah's Ark conduct research."

Nate gave the order.

Takamahara planned to be carried out in Japan, and what results are achieved will naturally be counted on Japan's head.

Nate wanted to be part of the Noah's Ark project, so that they could be the first to publish it, and that plan could be seen as a product of the American-led Noah's Ark project.

In this way, countries will be determined to invest money in it.

Excludes Japan.

But it doesn't matter, the United States never blushes when it comes to stealing someone else's work.

……

Thursday, August 10.

In the morning, the summer morning breeze blows through the treetops, and the lazy cicadas do not make any calls, as if they have taken advantage of the wind.

Phoenix Temple Mei Ji wakes up.

Her room is not as big as in the Phoenix Courtyard house, but the décor is still luxurious, with warm gold tones.

Phoenix Temple Miki got up, walked to the closet, and changed into a light blue dress.

There was a knock at the door.

"Miss, it's time for breakfast, is it convenient for us to come in?"

"Hmm."

Phoenix Courtyard Mei Ji replied.

Miwa Kazuki opened the door and led the maids in.

Washing her face, brushing her teeth, and combing her hair, Mei Ji of Phoenix Temple washed away the haze of waking up from her first sleep, and the person looked shiny, and strode towards the dining room of the mansion.

To be honest, for her, who is used to the mansion in the Phoenix Courtyard, everything in the mansion seems small.

The floor space is completely incomparable with the house, but the interior is just worked on.

Part of it was renovated, and part of it was being renovated, she walked to the restaurant on the ground floor and saw Hu Die sitting on the top.

A hint of surprise flashed across her face and she said, "Mother, don't you need to be busy today?" ”

"I can do work at any time, and it's rare to have breakfast with you."

Encountering something like that last night, Hu Die suddenly realized that life is impermanent, and he wanted to see his daughter a few more times, so as not to accidentally become the last one.

Of course, such thoughts will be put aside after she gradually works.

The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change.

No matter what Hu Die does, he will never give up his desire for power.

At most, what happened last night made her give up a little time and choose to sit here and have a meal with her daughter.

"From now on, you will eat three meals a day with me in the office."

"Hey."

Phoenix Temple Mei Ji nodded, not hating eating with her mother.

Even if the topic of mother and daughter at the dinner table is not a warm family matter, but a topic similar to an exam, it makes her feel at home.

Hu Die tested her recent homework and asked for her views on world events, especially Mexico's four-year plan.

Phoenix Courtyard Meiji's answer made Hu Die very satisfied, put down the knife and fork in his hand, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "At ten o'clock this morning, I asked Iwasaki and them to come over."

When the time comes, you will meet them on the tarmac for me. ”

"Mother, is something happening?"

Phoenix Courtyard Mei Ji was quite curious.

This was the first time that my mother had met with people from the five major conglomerates in the official residence since she became prime minister.

Hu Die smiled: "There has been some progress in the plan regarding Gao Tianyuan, and in addition, I also want to tell them about the latest information."

You pour tea there, just listen, don't talk nonsense, understand? ”

"Hey."

Phoenix Temple Mei Ji nodded.

……

Kitasenju, outside Adachi Market.

Hojo Shinoko is in big trouble like never before, standing under a telephone pole outside the market, clutching her bag in her right hand, wearing a white T-shirt and relaxed slacks.

For the first time, the fair-skinned cheeks showed overwhelmed annoyance.

"Little girl, I'm not boasting, my grandson is really very good, graduated from the University of Tokyo last year, and served as the head of the public security section in only one year.

He is 1.85 meters tall, handsome, and responsible. ”

An old woman who looked to be seventy or eighty years old stood in front of Hojo Shinoko, not tall, just up to her neck.

I don't know if it's because I'm born so short, or if it's because I'm old.

"It's just that he speaks woodenly, and he hasn't gotten married yet, and I've observed you for a while, and you go to Adachi Market every day to buy vegetables, and you bargain quite badly.

Every shopkeeper says you're a good woman who is good at living. ”

"That, Mrs. Tiansuo, I'm still a freshman in high school."

Hojo Shinoko weakly reminded this person that she was not old enough to get married at all.

Tian Suo said with an indifferent face: "It's okay, it's not a few years old, you can talk first."

When you graduate from high school, you can marry him. ”

Hojo Shinoko became more and more helpless, she respected her older elders, and because of this, she was embarrassed to say some words, showing a little distress and said: "But I don't have the idea of falling in love for the time being." ”

"It's okay, you have ideas after chatting, I'm really optimistic about you, there aren't many girls like you who are diligent and thrifty.

If my grandson misses it, he will regret it for the rest of his life. ”

"Eh, but I can't really fall in love with your grandson."

Hojo Shinoko truthfully said what was in her heart.

Tian took out a photo of his grandson and showed off: "Look, I didn't lie to you. ”

Taking out her notebook and pen again, she said, "What's your phone number?"

Otherwise, you can write down his phone number. ”

"No, no."

Hojo Shinoko shook her head again and again, and when she saw Aosawa coming over, she hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, my friend is here." ”

With this excuse, she quickly slipped away from the old lady and ran to Qing Ze's front and said, "Good morning, senior." ”

"Good morning, Shinoko."

Qing Ze replied, and then caught a glimpse of the old woman next to him, and just wanted to ask.

Tian Suo took the lead and said, "What's your name?" ”

The fierce momentum made him slightly stunned, and replied, "Qing Ze." ”

"How old are you?"

"Sixteen."

"How many people are there in the family, what do you do?"

"Two people, I'm Shinoko's senior at school."

After Aosawa answered her question, she glanced at Hojo Shinoko again, and said softly, "Who is this old woman?" ”

"The old woman of the field said that she wanted to introduce me to his grandson, and I just met."

"Oh."

Qing Ze suddenly, directly knocked on the door of Tian Suo's head, the force was not heavy, "I don't know, what are you doing blindly asking about the hukou, I think it is an elder!" ”

"You even dare to beat an old man, there must be a tendency of domestic violence in the future."

Tian Suo turned his head and said, "You must not like this kind of man. ”

"Please don't say that about seniors!"

Hojo Shinoko replied angrily, and hurriedly pushed Aosawa towards the vegetable market, not wanting to say more to this old woman who said bad things about her predecessors.

Tian Suo saw her reaction, and immediately understood that the granddaughter-in-law he fancied was hopeless.

Any idea of not being in love is a lie.
