On her way home, Jian Zhizhen went online and discovered that what she had done that night had an unexpected additional effect.
The smoke she produced, after Qin Yubai opened the window and let it out, actually gathered into a large mushroom cloud in mid-air.
This incident was captured on camera by a hidden foreign spy, who posted it on the internet with a caption:
[Giant pandas belong to the world: This is terrifying! Chemical weapons research is being conducted in ordinary residential areas of China! How destructive must such a huge mushroom cloud be? Truly a threat to world peace!]
After this person posted, many foreigners commented, their words filled with fear.
It's not fair to blame them for being naive; it's just that China's military power is now leading the entire universe, causing them to see enemies everywhere.
Initially, some kind-hearted Chinese netizens explained to them:
[A walking official from the Civil Affairs Bureau: You've misunderstood... China currently does not allow civilian scientists to research lethal chemical weapons. That mushroom cloud was probably just someone forgetting to turn off the stove while cooking, causing the pot to explode.]
[Yue Wu'er: Yes, weapons research is the business of military scientists; ordinary citizens in the community wouldn't do these things. Foreign netizens don't need to be particularly afraid.]
But those foreigners just wouldn't believe it, insisting that China was so powerful that even residents of a neighborhood could easily acquire weapons.
After a while, Chinese netizens got tired of explaining.
Being feared is the fate of powerful nations, and everyone can only accept it helplessly.
They even started doing silly things:
[Yifei Doesn't Want to Fly: What's so special about this? Every September, tens of thousands of mysterious troops appear in China, hiding in various universities for a month of secret training before disappearing again. That's the Dragon King Palace, known as the world's strongest military force, conducting its annual grand military parade. But don't worry, we won't use the Dragon King Palace's power unless absolutely necessary.]
[Fairy: Every evening between 6 and 9 pm, many elderly people gather in the square for intensive training. These are our country's old masters absorbing the essence of the sun and moon.]
[Black Bean Sprout: Does anyone not know that every Chinese person knows martial arts? [Video][Video][Video]]
The three videos are:
The old man hung from the horizontal bar and spun around up and down.
The chef was slicing a radish so fast that the knife left afterimages. While he was doing this, the comments section said, "It's just radish shreds, right? We can do that with a peeler." After he finished, the chef picked up the radish and saw that it had turned into a net-like structure, crisscrossing and connected end to end. Even a machine might not be able to cut it so precisely!
A Chinese actress was invited by Disney to play Mulan in the live-action version. She was questioned for being just a pretty face and not being able to play such a strong female character. So, at the press conference, she performed a set of ten backflips and landed on the beam at the top of the studio.
There are countless other examples, all showcasing the profound cultural heritage, formidable military strength, terrifying scientific research capabilities, and mysterious martial arts skills of the Chinese people, which command the respect of foreigners.
Whether these examples are real or fabricated, they all enhance the country's prestige in the eyes of foreigners.
Jian Zhizhen watched the whole thing with a cheerful smile, refusing to admit that she had put the cigarette there.
...
At 2 a.m., the three of them finally arrived at Yan Village.
They had already notified Jianci and Zhenman in advance, and the couple were now standing at the door waiting.
Seeing the three of them get out of the car, Jianci stood at the door and looked at them with loving eyes.
Zhenman went straight to them, took Jian Zhizhen's hand, and looked at Lin Yi and Qin Yubai: "The children are back. Are they hungry?"
All three shook their heads.
Jian Zhizhen and Lin Yi exchanged a glance, then looked at their mother and said solemnly, "Mom, my brother and I have something we want to tell you and Dad."
Zhenman's expression also turned serious.
Actually, when her daughter suddenly said she had to rush back tonight instead of spending time with the Qin family boy in the city, she had a premonition that something big was going to happen.
She didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and led them inside.
The family sat down in the front hall, and Jian Zhizhen couldn't wait to tell them about Lin Yi's situation: "My brother actually suffers from dissociative identity disorder..."
Jian Zhizhen told her parents about the timing of Lin Yi, Jiang Fang, and Jian Chun's appearance, their personality traits, and the methods of summoning them.
She also emphasized to them that her three older brothers cared for her very much.
She had a deep affection for them all and treated them like brothers.
The disappearance of any one of them is hard to accept.
Jianci and Zhenman listened with surprised expressions the entire time.
Finally, the family fell into a deep silence.
Lin Yi lowered her eyes, not daring to look at her parents.
Because he didn't know if he was a monster in their eyes.
They were also afraid that they would think Jian Chun was their biological child and wanted to merge him with Jiang Fang...
Jian Zhizhen was extremely nervous.
Qin Yubai sat next to Jian Zhizhen. Although he really wanted to hug her and comfort her, he didn't dare in front of her parents.
After a long while, Zhenman suddenly smiled softly, but her eyes were filled with a layer of mist.
She took Lin Yi's hand, her face full of heartache: "Of these three brothers, you've had the hardest time. Second brother, it's all our fault for not finding you sooner. If only we had found you sooner."
Jianci also looked over, and although she didn't say anything directly, her reddened eyes were full of heartache and guilt.
Lin Yi's eyes also stung terribly, a warm current spreading from his heart throughout his body. He opened his mouth, but didn't know how to respond. Finally, he could only call out in a trembling voice, "Dad, Mom..."
Jian Zhizhen was both delighted and surprised, not expecting things to go so smoothly: "Mom, you accepted it so easily?"
