Chapter 551 Wait a Year
The charcoal fire crackled as chicken legs, squid, ham and other foods were roasted on the iron rack.
Ye Li and Bai Ze sat on recliners respectively, clinking their glasses, one drinking a drink while the other drank wine.
There were only two of them in the huge backyard, so they could speak without restraint.
Bai Ze ate a bunch of sausages and said, "Tomorrow we'll take action. We'll go to the spaceship base in the space city, modify the original missile equipment, put the antidote in it, and then detonate it in the atmospheric dust."
"No." Ye Li shook his head and said, "We have to wait a year."
"Wait a year?" Bai Ze sat up immediately. He looked at Ye Li in confusion and asked, "Why wait another year? Wouldn't it be better to end it sooner?"
Ye Li looked over and said, "There's another me in this world. She's heading to a refuge in the north. We have to wait a year until she comes to the Holy City to find the time-space probe, takes it away, and leaves. Only then can I detonate the antidote missile in the atmosphere. Otherwise, there will be no me now."
Bai Ze thought about it carefully and said, "It's only a year. I can wait. Besides, we can do a lot of other things in this year."
A year and a half later.
Ye Li was playing with the child in the house when Bai Ze strode in from outside.
His eyes gleamed as he spoke, "My men detected your arrival and were heading towards the space station on the mountaintop. You're quite audacious, even venturing into that place. Fortunately, my men disarmed the surveillance and defense equipment, so you weren't discovered."
Ye Li smiled and said, "No wonder. We were surprised at first why the astronauts were so defenseless. It turns out you were secretly helping them."
"Anyway, I will make sure you leave the space city and head to the space-time rift in the abandoned city." Bai Ze said with a smile, "Once you pass through, we will immediately launch the antidote."
"Yes." Ye Li nodded and asked, "Has the spacecraft base been completed? Can it ensure smooth arrival at the launch tower?"
Bai Ze scratched his head and said, "These astronauts are too difficult to deal with. Only astronauts can enter that place. We can't get in. I've been trying to get in touch with an astronaut recently. He's too cunning. We have to take our time. Otherwise, if he discovers our intentions, it will be terrible."
Ye Li walked to the window and looked out. His sight fell on the spaceship on the top of the Holy Mountain. He said, "I think we should go and ask her for help."
"Who?" Bai Ze approached and asked.
"Xiao Ruo."
Bai Ze asked doubtfully, "Looking for her? She has disappeared since the war between the Holy City and the Astronauts. I don't know where she is."
Indeed, Xiao Ruo has never appeared in the past year. Even though everyone knows that the astronaut commander-in-chief has a new wife, no one has ever seen the true face of this lady.
Ye Li pointed to the top of the Holy Mountain and said, "She's up there."
"Ah? How is that possible?"
"Didn't Jiang Yuan, the chief commander of Space City, announce that he had married some time ago? Xiao Ruo is his wife."
Bai Ze blinked for a long time before reacting, "So when you went to the Holy Mountain today, did you meet Xiao Ruo?"
"Yeah," Ye Li nodded and said, "Think of a way to ask Xiao Ruo to come out and meet her. She will help us."
"Yeah, what can't the commander-in-chief's wife do?"
An hour later, Bai Ze was racking his brains for how to get close to Xiao Ruo, but he never expected that his home would receive an invitation letter from Commander-in-Chief Jiang Yuan.
"Oh my God!" Bai Ze opened the invitation and was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. He looked at Ye Li beside him and said, "Commander-in-Chief Jiang Yuan is holding a dinner on the spaceship to formally introduce his wife to everyone. It says I'm invited to go, and I can bring a family member."
Ye Li stopped patting Xiao Bao and coaxing him to sleep, thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to prepare it right away. How can I attend a dinner party without an evening gown!" Bai Ze walked out in a hurry and loudly ordered the servants in the mansion to invite the best tailor.
