Shen Yanming: "......" Okay, as long as you can figure it out.
He returned to Bi Qiaoan's side, ready to cook for her. Unexpectedly, a helicopter flew in from afar.
Judging from the looks of it, it's the same plane that Wen Chaohui took away.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and just looked up at the sky, gazing at it.
The helicopter landed quickly.
Wen Chaohui was the first to come out, followed by Qi Xili.
Then, amidst everyone's expectant gazes, General Li slowly walked down.
Next came Li Sikai, Qiu Man, Jiang Ji, and several other big shots who frequently appeared on television. Finally, there were several bodyguards.
Jiang Ji hadn't originally planned to come, but after studying the energy crystals, he couldn't eat or drink and kept wanting to go see where the crystals appeared.
When the application was submitted to the higher-ups, General Li was reluctant to agree, but Jiang Ji said, "You've taken Xiao Kai with you, why can't you take me? If you're going to be so unfair, I'll sue you! I won't let you research that damn storage device anymore."
"Why are you throwing a tantrum like a child?" Li Zongmeng thought to himself, "I am the highest-ranking official in the alliance. Where else can you sue me?"
However, he didn't say it out loud, for fear of angering Jiang Ji.
Engineer Jiang is no longer the insignificant nobody he used to be. In some ways, his influence now far surpasses that of the Alliance Chief.
"Alright, don't rush. Let's have a meeting to get everyone's opinions. If more than half of the alliance officers agree to you going to Su City, I'll take you with me."
Jiang Ji was delighted to hear this. He hadn't expected the league's bigwigs to object.
But to everyone's surprise, he was proven wrong at the meeting. Because Jiang Ji was too important, no one wanted him to take any risks.
Frustrated, Jiang Ji pointed at General Li and questioned, "He, the highest leader of the alliance, can go, so why can't I?"
“With Chief Alliance Officer Li gone, there are other Alliance Officers who can take charge. But if you leave, no one will be able to continue the research work.”
"So I'm just a research machine, with no human rights and no holidays?" Jiang Ji said angrily.
These words were a bit harsh, and no one dared to utter a sound.
Jiang Ji had no choice but to resort to his trump card: "If you don't agree, I will stop researching storage devices. And your descendants will not get any benefits from me."
He even warned them with his eyes: "Don't try to use force on me, I'd rather die than submit!"
"Fine, fine, we can't afford to offend them." The big shots had no choice but to nod in agreement. However, they secretly increased security in the area.
So, don't be fooled by the few guards following General Li; they are all highly skilled and formidable.
Moreover, there are a lot of people in Li Sikai's space, all of whom have explosive combat power, each one being equivalent to three people.
In short, they are not to be trifled with.
The arrival of the Imperial Capital Team initially caused silence at the scene, followed by a burst of exclamations.
Apart from these twenty-eight, no one expected that Wen Mengguan would invite the most outstanding figures in Qinghua Kingdom!
General Li greeted everyone warmly, without mentioning the purpose of his visit.
Most of the people present were intelligent and wouldn't ask questions. Those who weren't so bright, seeing that no one was asking, knew to keep quiet.
When General Li saw forty-odd ragged, emaciated people lying on the ground, he went forward to check on them.
He asked Liang Huaxin, "Are they alright? Do they need any help?"
This time, he brought a top-notch medical team with him.
Liang Huaxin shook his head: "Their vital signs are still relatively stable. Their lives have been saved, and they just need to rest and recuperate afterward."
General Li nodded and ordered the wounded to be sent back to Hai City, which could be considered a way of clearing the area.
Once everyone who knew the inside story was gone, Chief Li greeted Shen Yanming with a smile.
He extended his hand and said, "Hey Xiao Shen, this is the first time we've met in all these years!"
There was no mention of any space, supernatural abilities, prescriptions, honey, supplies, or spiritual spring water. It was simply a greeting to an old friend with whom one had long shared a divine connection.
Shen Yanming was flattered and returned the handshake with General Li: "Greetings, General Li. I never expected to meet you in Suzhou!"
General Li smiled and tapped his nose: "I can see you know perfectly well, you're just pretending to be confused!"
After speaking, he looked at the people next to Shen Yanming: "Is this your wife, and your son and daughter?"
Shen Yanming nodded and introduced Bi Qiaoan and An'an Nuannuan to General Li with a smile.
After exchanging greetings with General Li, the mother and her two children voluntarily stood to one side.
At this moment, Li Sikai came over and hugged Shen Yanming: "Brother, it's been a long time."
"Yes, it's been a long time, more than ten years!" You don't realize how fast time flies when you're not thinking about it, but once you start thinking about it, you'll find that time has passed very quickly.
"How are you? Are you feeling alright?" Shen Yanming asked in a low voice.
Li Sikai nodded: "The green crystal you sent was very useful, thank you."
"As long as it works, I'm just afraid it'll all be for nothing!"
Li Sikai released Shen Yanming and looked at the mother and her two children beside him. "An'an and Nuannuan, do you still remember Uncle Sikai?"
“I remember!” An An Nuan Nuan stepped forward and smiled shyly: “When I was little, I lived in Uncle Skye’s space for a while. I liked to eat mulberries back then, and Uncle would pick a big bowl for me every day.”
"I am a thorn bubble, and I have never stopped living in this space."
"You two were only three years old back then. Now, you must be fourteen or fifteen! You've grown so much in the blink of an eye."
Li Sikai spoke with great emotion. The tiny baby he used to hold in his arms is now almost as tall as him.
After saying that, she took two bowls of fruit from her spatial storage and handed them to An'an and Nuannuan. The two children looked closely and saw that they were mulberries and wild raspberries.
He thanked her with a smile and accepted it. He picked one up and tasted it, "Mmm, it tastes just like before!"
The expressions of enjoyment on their faces made everyone else swallow hard. Although the Hai City base had no shortage of food and drink, they had never had fruit before. Having not tasted it for years, they were quite craving it.
An'an and Nuannuan weren't the type to eat alone; they had plenty of space at home and had never lacked anything. After asking Li Sikai, they took the fruit and distributed it to everyone.
Liang Huaxin and his companions were so excited that their eyes lit up. After thanking the two children, they started eating without any hesitation.
Here, Chief Alliance Officer Li stated their plan directly: "This area is jointly managed by Haishi and Dijing. Engineer Jiang, several other alliance officers, and I want to go to the place where the crystal was discovered to conduct an on-site investigation. Could you lead a team for us?"
Qi Xili and Shen Yanming had no objections. However, the remaining twenty-odd people, who had barely escaped death, probably didn't need to go back in.
Seeing that everyone was about to leave him behind, Liang Huaxin became anxious: "I can go in too."
Qi Xili: "It's not that we won't let you in, it's just that there's no need."
