Chapter 1187 Dark Stage—Capriccio (2)

The operation of the "Winter Palace" is not complicated. It was divided into two parts before. The "Utopia" and the "Land of Hell" were controlled by Soviet scientists headed by Arnold Vladimir, while the "Winter Palace" was

Under the control of Paul XIV.

As for the launch of a nuclear bomb, it initially required not only the authorization of the leader of the "Sunflower Flag", but also the joint decision of Arnold Vladimir and Paul XIV. However, because the Soviet Union had returned to dust, as of August 24, 1991, Akh

After Romeev committed suicide, these twenty-four "Tsars" were completely controlled by Arnold Vladimir and Paul XIV.

To put it simply, in the current "Hermitage", scientists headed by Arnold Vladimir are responsible for providing profitable content, while Paul XIV is responsible for the operation and security of the Winter Palace.

The nuclear power plant requested by Cheng Mo is a submersible nuclear reactor. It is independent of the "Winter Palace" and provides energy for the "Winter Palace" somewhere on the seabed under the island. In the era of the Big Two, the control of nuclear power plants was not an important issue.

matter, but Chengmo's "Winter Palace" can maintain the balance of power after Yan Funing joins, then the nuclear power plant becomes important.

After Paul XIV handed over the management authority of the nuclear power plant to Yan Funing, the "Winter Palace" entered into a three-person co-management model. For the "Winter Palace" that was already in a semi-paralyzed state, this was actually a good thing, at least it could

There is one more person in charge.

Cheng Mo did not participate in the discussion about the division of powers and responsibilities between the three people, but left the conference room after the handover was completed. Yan Yitong, who was standing against the wall, saw Cheng Mo coming out and immediately asked: "Where is my brother?"

"He still has something to do. I guess he will have to wait for a while." Cheng Mo replied.

"Oh~~ That's so boring!" Yan Yitong said with his hands behind his back, "How about we find a place to play?"

"Where do you want to play?"

"Let's go to the fourth floor! The fourth floor is the activity room. There are billiards, indoor golf, squash, table tennis, PSP and Wii." Yan Yitong grabbed Cheng Mo's hand and dragged him towards the exit of the corridor, "Also

Can watch movies”

Cheng Mo said "hmm" and followed Yan Yitong into the control center hall. The signal could not be restored until a communication satellite was launched, so the three large screens were all blue canvases.

As the two walked past the circular three-dimensional projector, a bunch of colorful ripples that were difficult to detect with the naked eye rippled in the air. Cheng Mo glanced at the colorful fluorescence and silently followed Yan Yitong down the long steps.

, passed through the long corridor with canned brains on both sides, and came to the elevator entrance.

At this time, a simple lift has been installed in the elevator shaft. It can only reach the fourth floor. To go up on the fourth floor, you must climb the safety ladder.

Yan Yitong took Cheng Mo's hand and jumped onto the elevator, pressed the switch, and the red warning light on the elevator guardrail rotated. Amidst the mechanical sound of "buzz, buzz, buzz", the two of them reached the fourth floor.

This is the activity room for senior members of the "Winter Palace". After exiting the elevator, there are several billiard tables, and a table tennis table further away. The activity room covered with blue carpets is empty.

"What are we playing? Billiards?" Cheng Mo looked around and finally landed on the corner where the TV and PSP were installed, "Or are we playing games?"

Yan Yitong shook her head. She pointed to the door on the side edge of the activity room and said, "Isn't that a cinema? Let's go watch a movie."

"OK."

The two held hands and walked into the dark screening room. Cheng Mo found the light switch next to the door and lit up the not-so-large space. There were only sixteen red luxury sofas and chairs in a group of two in the entire screening room.

, two groups in one row, the layout is similar to domestic VIP rooms.

Cheng Mo asked Yan Yitong to find a seat, and he went to the projector room at the back. The projection system was similar to the on-demand system in a home theater. He turned on the computer and looked at it, and asked loudly at the door: "Tongtong, what do you want to watch?

Movie?"

Yan Yitong, who was already seated, also replied loudly: "Whatever, it's a love movie! It's pure love~~~ It's better to have some childhood sweetheart plot!"

"But is your English okay? How about we go outside to play games?" Cheng Mo asked again.

"No, I want to watch a movie. After all, I have passed CET-4 in English! If I really don't understand, I can ask you."

"good."

Cheng Mo began to flip through the movie sources on his computer. Every page was either a special effects blockbuster, a war movie or a suspense movie. There was no hint of a romance movie.

In fact, there are romance movies, but the purity of this kind of romance movies is a bit high, so high that the actors don't even wear much clothes. He turned from the first page to almost the last page, and finally saw a movie called "Flipped" at the end.

"movie, if you look at the cover, which shows a boy and a girl sitting on the branches of a big tree, you know that this movie meets Yan Yitong's requirements.

It's like it was specially prepared for them.

So Cheng Mo clicked play and walked out of the projector room. He went to the door and turned off the lights. The projection room fell into darkness. Only the beam of light from the projector passed through the silent and dark air, casting a colorful picture on the white curtain.

"I'll get you a Coke and popcorn."

"Okay!" Yan Yitong replied, "Hurry up!"

Cheng Mo opened the door and walked out of the movie screening room. He took a Coke, potato chips, and a large bucket of popcorn from the counter nearby. When he came in, the title of the movie had just finished playing, and a picture appeared on the screen.

The face of a cute little girl, she was sitting on the curb. Then a little boy with slicked back hair passed in front of the little girl in a car.

Cheng Mo walked quickly to Yan Yitong, handed the popcorn to Yan Yitong, and asked in a low voice: "Can you really understand?"

"I really hope Julie Baker won't pester me. Everything started in the summer of 1957." Yan Yitong took the popcorn and read out the first line of the movie directly, and then said with a smile, "Sure."

Mo, why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"

Cheng Mo put the Coke and potato chips in his hand on the small table in the middle of the sofa and whispered: "Because I promised you that I would protect you."

Yan Yitong was so surprised that he dropped the popcorn in his hand, "Ah!? When did it happen?"

Cheng Mo unscrewed the bottle cap, took a sip of Coke, and said, "Not long ago."

"Why don't I remember anything?" Yan Yitong said suspiciously.

Cheng Mo was silent for a moment and said, "A lot of things happened just now."

"Really?" Yan Yitong asked confusedly, "What happened!?"

"Let's watch a movie!" Cheng Mo smiled and stared at the screen, "Let's watch a movie first."

"oh."

Amidst the leisurely English dialogue, they stopped talking and concentrated on watching the movie.

The plot of the movie is very simple. It tells that the male protagonist Bryce’s family moved to a small town. The female protagonist Julie’s neighbor girl saw it and came to help. So the little girl Julie fell in love with the male protagonist at first sight and made a wish to win.

His kiss.

The two were classmates, so Julie kept trying to get close to him, but he couldn't avoid him. Julie's favorite thing was to climb a tall sycamore tree and look at the scenery. But because of construction, the tree had to be cut down, so he couldn't get close to him.

Julie defended all of this to the death and hoped that the male protagonist Bryce would fight alongside her, but Bryce backed down. In the end, Julie alone prevented the tree from being cut down, and her deeds were published in the newspapers.

Because of these things, Bryce's grandfather had a good impression of the heroine, which made Bryce very confused. So Bryce had a conversation with his grandfather.

Here comes a famous line that Cheng Mo knows well, and Yan Yitong also chants in a low voice: "Some of us get dipped in flat, some in satin, some in gloss But every once in a while you find someone who's iridescent

, and when you do, nothing will ever compare.” (Some people live in high-rise buildings, some live in deep ditches, some are bright, some are covered in rust, there are thousands of kinds of people in the world, don’t seek them from floating clouds, this person is like a rainbow, you will know it when you meet him)

"Have you seen it?" Cheng Mo asked.

Yan Yitong turned to look at Cheng Mo, blinked and said, "I'm from Nortel! How is it possible that I haven't seen such a classic movie?"

Cheng Mo smiled, "That's right." He took a sip of Coke, and the sound of "gudu, gudu" was heard.

"I can memorize all the lines." Yan Yitong also raised the red Coca-Cola bottle, raised her head and took a sip of Coke. She put down the bottle, wiped her mouth, and sighed, "The Coke tastes really good!"

"Yeah?"

"Yes, this is my favorite movie." Yan Yitong muttered, "Later, Julie will win first place in the science and technology exhibition with the chicken-laying egg project and become the focus of the audience. She will dwarf Bryce. Then Zhu

Li gave Bryce her own eggs, but Bryce listened to her family and suspected that Julie's eggs were unhygienic, so he secretly threw them away. Every time I see this, I cry."

"Then should I prepare the tissues for you?"

"No, I don't think I will cry this time!" Yan Yitong said with a smile, "Now I have someone to protect me!"

"So you really don't remember anything?" Cheng Mo asked casually, "Since I was a child, I can't remember everything that happened in the past, such as how you came to the Winter Palace from Oshu.

?”

Yan Yitong grabbed a handful of popcorn and thought for a while before replying: "When you ask that, I feel like I have lost a lot of memories, but if I really think about it, there seems to be nothing worth mentioning." After a pause, she looked like

It was a flash of inspiration and he said, "I remember that I used to live in the capital, but then I moved to Star City for some reason."

"Then do you remember your grandpa?"

"Nonsense." Yan Yitong ate a few popcorns, "But he has been dead for many years. It seems that our family moved back to Star City after my grandpa passed away."

"Oh? So your move has something to do with your grandfather's death?"

"Probably not! Maybe if you ask my brother about this, he will know better."

Cheng Mo smiled and said, "Okay, let's continue watching the movie! You have seen it, but I haven't seen it yet."

Yan Yitong turned to look at Cheng Mo's side face and asked with a smile: "Then why did you suddenly say you want to protect me?"

Cheng Mo thought for a moment and said softly: "Because you have a very dangerous ability. Your brother has always been protecting you secretly in the past, and now I will too."

"Wow! A dangerous ability?" Yan Yitong exclaimed happily, "It won't mean that half of the people on the earth will die if you snap your fingers like Thanos, right?"

Cheng Mo thought that although he was not as scary as Thanos, he could directly absorb the energy of the carrier and directly issue instructions beyond all operating systems. He was not far behind Thanos. But he did not answer Yan Yitong's question, but asked

Said: "Does it mean that after you collect all the infinite stones, you will want to snap your fingers like Thanos?"

Yan Yitong thought for a moment and said, "Probably not! But if someone hurts my family or you, then I will snap my fingers."

"But the deaths are random?"

"When you're angry, why do you care about randomness or not?"

"What if someone we know dies? For example."
