First Military Region.
Chu Weizhi received the news of the Little Bird Empire's organizational meeting and sneered, "Looks like some people are ready to stop Bilian from playing rogue again."
The Dragon Nation leader coughed lightly and said, "Xiao Chu, be more polite and have the magnanimity of a great nation."
"I will."
Chu nodded, and then the holographic device turned on.
Next second.
A gorgeous and spacious conference room appeared in front of everyone. Chu Weizi's projection walked in to the round table where Long Guo was and sat down casually.
Chu Weizhi casually glanced at the other representatives, all looking unhappy, and pretended not to notice. "I didn't expect everyone to be so eager to have my Dragon Nation represent me. Fortunately, we in Dragon Nation have a partial response plan for the [Spark] Project. Let me tell you about it now."
"Wait a minute." The white-haired old man from the Bird Empire quickly stopped him, "Regarding the results of this 'War' selection, we all feel... emmmm"
"Hmm?" Chu Weizhi raised a tone, feeling extremely oppressive.
The white-haired old man from the Bird Empire didn't want to bear the pressure alone, so he turned his gaze towards the Giant Bear Federation. "Didn't you just say you had something to say to General Chu of the Dragon Nation?"
The representative of the Giant Bear Federation twitched his face and cursed him inwardly. He smiled shyly, "Regarding the results of the 'War' selection, what do you think of the Gauls?"
Gaul: “?” He cursed in his heart, but he put on a righteous look and nodded.
"As for the result that Dragon Country took first place this time... John Bull Country is not convinced."
The representative of John Bull Country, who had been gloating, suddenly turned pale. Feeling Chu Weizi's cold and murderous gaze, his lips trembled.
"I…we just didn't think it was a good fit."
"oh?"
Chu Weizhi smiled. He scanned the faces of the representatives from the four nations and asked, "Do you all think that Dragon Nation is plotting something deliberate by attempting to become the leader of the Spark Project?"
"...That's not what we meant." The white-haired old man laughed awkwardly. He was joking. No matter what he thought in his heart, he couldn't admit it.
"It's too hasty to decide on a representative based solely on one variety show."
"Yeah yeah."
The representatives echoed.
The white-haired old man said: "After all, the [Spark] project concerns all of humanity, and we are also considering everyone's interests."
"That's right."
"So it's all for the sake of all mankind." Chu Weizhi nodded with a smile. Everyone couldn't tell from his expression whether he was angry or not, but his words were full of sarcasm.
Next second.
A huge sense of oppression came over me.
"You should have told me you wanted to break the contract. You're wasting my precious time."
"Since everyone feels that Dragon Nation is unworthy of participating in the Spark Project, then Dragon Nation will withdraw, and the four nations can choose a viable candidate. I will only say one thing: Dragon Nation has no interest in participating in your internal strife at this critical juncture where the sword of Bodhidharma hangs over their heads. Instead, they should focus on researching various technologies to provide additional protection for their descendants when danger strikes in the future."
Finished.
Chu Weizi's holographic image disappeared in the conference room.
Representatives of Birdie Empire and others were dumbfounded.
They never expected that the Dragon Kingdom would just give up. This is a critical moment for the survival of mankind. How could they treat it so lightly?
"That's too much! Is he threatening us?" The white-haired old man screamed, and his face was flushed red even through the holographic image.
Gaul and John Bull followed suit and shouted in agreement.
"Does the Dragon Nation think it's the only superpower? They're still researching all kinds of technologies, but they just got a rare energy source! They don't even have many technologies."
"That's right. They haven't done anything yet, but they think they can be superior to other countries? We must not encourage their arrogance."
"You are quite right," the white-haired old man was still screaming, and when he tried to say something else he was interrupted by the representative of the Giant Bear Federation.
"That's enough. Dragon Nation and Amazon Lily have signed a resource exchange agreement. How can you be sure there aren't other, more scarce energy sources besides Energy X?"
"And there's a saying in the Dragon Kingdom that's true: It's really pointless to fight tooth and nail for a position when facing a powerful enemy."
After saying that, the holographic projection of the Giant Bear Federation’s representative also disappeared in the conference room.
Only the Bird Empire, Gaul Empire and John Bull Empire were left staring at each other, and the scene was funny and ridiculous.
***
After returning home, Su Zhuo first took a hot bath, and then lay on the sofa to watch TV programs, enjoying this rare leisure time.
When it was getting dark outside, Tang Xiaofeng called and asked her to go out for dinner.
Su Zhuo put on some clothes casually and went out to have dinner with Yuan Yuan and Tang Xiaofeng at a newly opened restaurant in Hai City.
The other side.
Nirvana base.
The variety show "War" has ended, and people from several other countries have left and returned home one by one.
The only people left in the base who hadn't left were those from the Bird Empire and the Giant Bear Federation.
Liliwa sat by the window, staring blankly at the round moon in the sky. It was hard to tell whether there was envy, yearning or hatred in her eyes.
"Walker, why do you think the moon is so round?"
"Hmm... maybe today is the perfect day."
The sickly young man in the corner raised his head, looked at her, smiled and said uncertainly.
The soldiers guarding outside the railings couldn't help but feel sympathy for the twin brother and sister. They even subconsciously poked their colleague and curled their lips slightly, meaning: Look how pitiful they are. They don't even know that the moon is full on the fifteenth day of the lunar month.
A colleague laughed sarcastically: Because these two haven't seen the outside world for many years.
Liliwa noticed the soldiers' sympathetic and mocking smiles, and the corners of her lips curved even wider. "Such a big moon looks delicious. Walker, can you help me catch it?"
ha!
The soldiers outside laughed at Liliwa's naive and foolish words, but felt embarrassed when they saw the confused and innocent looks of the good-looking brother and sister.
"Ahem, I don't mean to mock you, but the moon is not food."
The soldier who laughed out loud subconsciously explained under such a gaze.
"Even if you tell them, they won't understand." The colleague who had previously mocked the two siblings couldn't help but speak up, raising his eyebrows again, "Look more, you won't be able to see it when you go back."
"When are you going back?" Liliwa asked.
Soldier: "The flight is at 9:30 tonight, so make sure you take it."
"Thank you." Liliwa thanked them sincerely, and then continued to look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. She looked lonely and sad.
Her brother, the sickly handsome boy, snuggled up to her. The scene was truly heartbreaking.
The two soldiers rarely felt any compassion.
"If you promise to behave, we can let you out for a little walk."
Hearing this, Liliwa and Walker turned around at the same time, their eyes filled with surprise and gratitude.
"May I?"
The soldier, who was originally a little annoyed with his bald mouth, met such a bright look and immediately forgot everything. "Of course, but it's only five minutes, and you have to keep it a secret from the captain."
"We will." Liliwa and Walker said in unison, with a barely perceptible cunning in their eyes.
The other side.
The temporary residence of the people of Bird Empire.
Adolph Lindsay was once again rejected by Maynard, his eyes full of hurt.
"Just because of a competition, we can't even be friends anymore?"
Inside the house, Maynard's voice was as cold as ever, "We have never been friends."
These hurtful words almost made Adolph Lindsay lose his balance.
He smiled sadly and turned away.
inside the house.
Beatrice smiled and curled her lips, "You are so cruel to your friends."
"I said he and I have never been friends." Maynard frowned slightly, as if he really didn't like Beatrice linking him and Adolf Lindsay together.
"Let's not talk about him anymore." Beatrice had no interest in human emotions. She just wanted to complete her mission quickly so she could return to her home planet. "Su Zhuo tricked you in this competition. Do you want revenge?"
A dark mark flashed in Maynard's eyes, "I want to."
"Very good. If you need strength, you can tell me and I'll lend it to you." Beatrice's hands hooked onto Maynard's wild body. Her eyes were calm, but her words were particularly ambiguous: "As long as you say you want me."
"I want you."
——————
Nine o'clock.
Coming out of the restaurant, Su Zhuo rubbed his bulging belly and sighed with satisfaction, "The grilled crab legs in this restaurant are really delicious."
"There are also cheese lobsters, fried four-happiness meatballs, cheese crab paste..." Yuan Yuan added. The little girl who usually speaks very slowly can speak about food quickly and accurately.
Su Zhuo: "Let's eat together next time."
Yuan Yuan nodded vigorously, his eyes shining.
Tang Xiaofeng, who came out last, couldn't help but laugh and scold when he heard this: "You two foodies, you just left the house and you're already thinking about the next time."
"Hey, it's delicious."
Su Zhuo tilted his head and smiled, his little face flushed red.
Tang Xiaofeng was so touched by Su Zhuo's rare cuteness that her face bled. She screamed in her heart: What's wrong with the next meal? She can buy this restaurant just for her.
"Ah ...
Tang Xiaofeng couldn't help but rub Su Zhuo's face.
Su Zhuo's eyes lit up, "Then I want to eat at the McDonald's in the west of the city."
"Why does it have to be the west of the city? Aren't McDonald's everywhere?" Tang Xiaofeng was puzzled.
"That restaurant's spicy chicken wings are the best." Su Zhuo said seriously.
Tang Xiaofeng was overjoyed, "Okay, let's go to the west of the city and eat McDonald's."
The three of them got in the car and drove west to the city.
The west part of the city is an older district in Hai City. The intersection of the bustling high-rise buildings and the quaint low-rise alleys full of modern atmosphere has outlined a unique landscape of Hai City.
Su Zhuo was very satisfied after eating the spicy chicken wings from McDonald's.
Just as she was about to eat the second one, she suddenly sensed an uncomfortable aura nearby.
Su Zhuo paused, then said calmly, "Xiaotang, can you and Yuan Yuan help me buy a cup of milk tea from that place?"
Tang Xiaofeng looked at the direction she pointed and said, "Do we have to go to that place? It's next to the military area."
"Yeah. I like that one."
"Then I'll let Yuan Yuan accompany you, and I'll be alone..."
Before she finished speaking, Su Zhuo interrupted her, "You two go, I'll wait here for you, you drive there, and come back quickly."
"Oh okay."
Tang Xiaofeng agreed without knowing why.
Su Zhuo put on a mask, got out of the nanny car, and walked towards a darker place with fewer people as if he was taking a leisurely stroll in the garden.
In a narrow and dark alley, two figures appeared in front.
The full moon cast silver light, illuminating his outline.
Brown-haired tough guy, Maynard.
Blonde, blue eyes, Beatrice.
"Instead of returning to your country, you two seem to be very interested in wandering around Long Country," Su Zhuo said while leaning against the wall, startling the two people in the alley.
Beatrice didn't expect to meet Su Zhuo here, and her wooden pupils twisted slightly.
Maynard had a cold face and said nothing, but his subconscious action of blocking in front of Beatrice still revealed something.
"Belis... No, I should call you Pu Yaolian." Su Zhuo chuckled. "Let me guess, are you the real you now, or the brain whose soul has been taken away?"
Beatrice, who was standing behind Maynard, narrowed her eyes.
Obviously, she didn't expect that Su Zhuo would easily see through her identity. She took a step back and soon revealed a sinister smile.
"So what if I know? The dead can't tell any secrets anyway, Maynard!"
Beatrice roared, and Maynard in the alley instantly arrived in front of Su Zhuo, and a pair of bristly hands grabbed him suddenly.
Su Zhuo tilted his head slightly to avoid his shackles, and in the blink of an eye, he exchanged dozens of moves with Maynard.
The two figures were so fast that they seemed like afterimages, and even the surveillance cameras couldn't capture them.
Su Zhuo wanted to lead Maynard away from the downtown area and into the old alleys of Shanghai. Not far away was a bustling street scene, where many Dragon Country citizens were happily discussing interesting things around them.
Beatrice saw her purpose and immediately reminded her.
Maynard clung to Su Zhuo tightly and wouldn't let her leave the downtown area, but at the same time, they didn't dare to use weapons too arrogantly, so they could only fight each other with physical skills.
As the two men fought, loud bangs were heard in the alley.
Beatrice curled the corners of her lips. If passers-by came to watch, she didn't believe that Su Zhuo would not care?
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a series of noises louder than those in the alley exploded.
Fireworks suddenly bloomed in the sky.
Countless Dragon Country citizens were drawn to the scene and exclaimed in amazement.
"What...?" Beatrice widened her eyes.
