Chapter 1,270 Ebony Stone and Lao Dao are both innocent
Thinking of this, Yu Lian glanced at his friend again, and suddenly remembered that this person actually had a background, and couldn't help but ask: "Do you have any history with Admiral Feiragu?"
"The Ferragut family's Grace Restaurant started selling high-end box lunches ten years ago. Our Brooklyn Shipyard has an office in the Big Apple, and senior managers order their work meals from them."
A five-star high-end restaurant, where the per capita consumption can at least equal a working-class person's monthly income, has actually begun to sell boxed lunches. This can only be said that this restaurant, which has been open for more than 200 years, is still very pragmatic.
"Thankfully, the Poseidon Fleet will cooperate with you."
"During this period, Vaughan has been supervising the construction of the remaining three ships, and has developed some friendship with the shipyard staff here. Of course, I would also like to thank the Cajar Design Bureau and General Belmont for their full cooperation."
Ross said.
Even Yu Lian took three seconds to realize that General Belmont should be Krell's... brother. I don't know why, but there is something wrong with adding a general to that guy's title.
"I'm afraid you want us to finish the work here and get out of here quickly?" Yu Lian showed a vicious smile.
"After all, there has been an exchange of fire on the Far Coast Star. Although the overall situation is still under control, if our main god-level returns home earlier, it may be able to calm down the cat and bird man." Luo Zeshi explained seriously:
"Yes, this is probably the alliance's efforts to contribute to the peace of the universe."
Yu Lian suddenly became happy: "So, they are kind-hearted?"
"From a purely military perspective, there is no problem in doing so. It is because the current scale of the conflict in the Far Coast Nebula is still limited, and deterrence is meaningful." Luo Zeshi continued to analyze seriously.
Of course this makes sense.
Military deterrence must only be effective when the situation is controllable.
At this moment, the situation on the far bank of the Nebula is indeed controllable. At least the officers on the scene did not take the things there too seriously when attending the banquet. When discussing the war situation, they just
Treat that incident as part of the after-dinner conversation.
"I heard that hundreds of Catai people have died?"
"Besides, such a large-scale riot has occurred in the majestic Alliance Capital Star. The governments and security structures of the Alliance at all levels have been under tremendous pressure, and they have no time to deal with us."
Indeed, Turanka is the gateway to the alliance's central sector. There are hundreds of thousands of foreign troops here, but there is an armed riot in the capital, so it always feels like beating one's own child in front of the guests. Normal people are
There will be a sense of shame.
Yu Lian can somewhat understand the alliance's feelings, but he understands, but he doesn't think the situation here is simple.
"Chester, don't you think it's too strange that this happened? Whether it's the timing, the development, or even the way the alliance handles it, there is a strong evil aura."
Rozez agreed with this view: "It is true. I stayed at the Taita Shipyard for three months and had many interactions with the alliance military and government departments. They should not be so slow or at a loss. I also
I visited the military industrial zone in Ice Valley City and found that the situation of those workers is not necessarily better than that of the community. Many temporary workers without citizenship are even worse than slaves in the empire, but they are still relatively stable."
"……relatively stable?"
"Yes, the alliance companies and temporary workers sign labor dispatch contracts, and the maximum term will not exceed one year. Once the contract expires, their temporary residence rights will be canceled and they will be forcibly moved out of the city by law enforcement agencies.
They are even driven to other planets by some semi-coercive policies. In this way, it will be difficult for workers who are dissatisfied with the alliance to form a force."
Yu Lian knew about this policy, but he could only lament that the inhumane alliance capitalists really knew how to play it.
"So, what about the Lothar people who are in the most unstable situation?"
"Their contract is only for half a year at most. Moreover, once the gathering of Lothar people exceeds 10,000, they will be forcibly dispersed." Luo Zeshi shook his head and was really amazed by this policy, but still said: "But let's talk about it.
To be honest, although the Lothars are unstable, they have lost their foundation after all. They have been dispersed throughout the alliance. Even in the Lotak sector in their homeland, the population of Lothars currently does not exceed 30%.
.I personally think that the only resistance they can make is actually terrorist activities. However, that is not so much a struggle, but a cry of despair."
"This is why it has no united front value. No wonder even celebrities like Mr. Asham have been fighting lawsuits for so many years with no results." Yu Lian sighed.
"Yes, there are many problems within the alliance. In comparison, the few alliance countries with kings and armies are more dangerous than the Lothar people. However, they are not terminally ill. The powder keg under Nephi
It is indeed accumulating power, but it should not explode now."
Yu Lian took a deep look at Luo Zeshi and nodded with satisfaction: "So, Chester, I still feel that being a general is really wronging you. Even if you can't be the prime minister in the future, you can at least preside over a
Coordinating the country’s diplomacy and foreign intelligence!”
Luo Zeshi raised his eyebrows, and a hint of malice inevitably flashed through his smile: "This kind of thing is not ours to decide. What's the matter, are you planning to start arranging the world's major affairs in advance?"
Yu Lian said "Ah" and showed a blank expression, and then said: "Then do you think it is a good thing or a bad thing that it exploded now?"
"Are you asking a practical question or a macro question?"
"All of them."
"Then I can't even answer you. Yu Lian, I'm just a fledgling young officer, and I don't actually understand politics. It's even harder for me to do things like the deduction of national relations." Luo Zeshi shook his head.
"Tsk, you are so boring."
"Hehehe, isn't that why you lost interest first?"
"Shut up, I'm the chairman of the youth club, I'm the leader, can't you double standard?" Yu Lian continued to mutter angrily: "If it's Wayne... forget it, that guy must not be able to listen.
I understand, at least when I'm not interested. But Hachiman and Mihir will definitely talk to me about it. Mihir will even advise me to find a way to take advantage of this situation, and Hachiman has even started KS.
Made a plan."
"Then you won't even listen, right?"
"...It's boring, you are really boring. As expected, he is no longer my adjutant, and has no direct affiliation, so he starts to look disgusting." Yu Lian shook his head vigorously and said, "How is Babalu doing?"
"It's okay for the time being. His frugal society has started operations again, and continues to organize students to work. The monitoring of him has also been removed. However, he still has to go to the police station in the sea capital twice a week to ensure that he
Will not leave Nephi."
Yu Lian nodded thoughtfully, feeling that the unruly Big Beetle was definitely not the kind of person who would accept punishment honestly.
Luo Zeshi whispered: "You'd better not contact him. Anyone who is well-informed knows that he is actually your best friend. This is also his own request."
"...Tsk, follower or something, am I a warlord or a gang boss?" Yu Lian said angrily: "I am now the deputy director of the National Strategic Intelligence Service and the chief military assistant of the Presidential Palace, commonly known as the Supervisor of the Army.
.Now, the only thing I care about is to bring our winner back home as soon as possible."
Rozes raised his eyebrows and showed an expression of relief: "That's really thankful! Senior Silva and I, as well as the arms purchasing group, and all the officers and men of the task force, all had to open champagne to celebrate.
.”
Yu Lian felt that it was too straightforward to ridicule him in this way, and he seemed extremely out of character. He was about to complain a few more words, but at this time, his eyes had already noticed the slim figure appearing in the banquet hall.
Feifei, wearing a colonel's uniform, was standing outside the crowd at the gate, wearing a familiar smile and waving to herself.
Luo Zeshi sensed something without even looking back, and quickly ran away with the wine glass.
Now that Commander Tatos has escaped from danger, all the crew members of "Skull Squadron" have naturally been released from house arrest, including the Philippine director.
In fact, as early as when the fleet left the Spiral Nebula and entered the Alliance country, Yu Lian received Feifei's guarantee of safety. However, the former was involved in military affairs after all, and the latter, as a film director of the annual big production but the leading actor was missing, also had
There are so many things to deal with, so it’s not easy to spend every day cooking Yuan Zhibo porridge together.
However, after all, they haven't seen each other for half a year, and so many things have happened in the meantime, there is still a lot to say.
Admiral Ferragut was still prepared to maintain his image of an amiable and kind-hearted grandfather in front of Yu Lian. Of course he wouldn't mind, and even said with a narrow smile that the orbital hotel for banquets had been booked by the embassy.
, the presidential suite can be used as you like. If necessary, you can also ask the front desk to provide some atmosphere-enhancing services.
The relationship between the two is not so close yet, so it seems a bit greasy to make such a joke. However, after talking about it, this should also reflect his positive attitude that he really wants to have a good relationship with Yu Lian. Probably...
So, the two of them left the show early and went straight to the dome garden on the top floor of the hotel. It was late at night and there was no one around except for the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers, which immediately reminded Yu Lian of the time he had spent on the Aurora.
The overwhelming scene in the ecological garden.
Speaking of which, the ecological garden on the Aurora has been converted into a stormtrooper maintenance room by Senior Sister Eleanor. It's really a waste of time.
Yu Lian looked at the girl in front of him and was about to say something, but the latter instantly suppressed her charming smile and snorted loudly from her nose: "Ah! I'm so angry right now!"
"...Hey, you just wanted to get angry with me when we first met?"
"Smoke!" Feifei said loudly, not bothering to pay attention to the other party's embarrassed face.
Yu Lian thought of the rosy youthful years he spent in his hometown in Jincheng before leaving home to go to college. He suddenly felt that his dead memories were attacking him again, and he quickly handed over the crumpled half-pack of old knives.
"I'm talking about the ebony stone scepter that white-furred fox bitch gave you!"
Yu Lian began to feel pain in his body, but he still tremblingly took out a delicate pine wood box from the space bag.
Feifei snatched it away with her hands, threw it to the ground and stepped on it three times, and then rubbed it with her heel for a while, until these priceless top-quality cigars no longer regained their value, and then she slowly let go.
"Well, I finally feel a lot better now." Feifei showed a relaxed smile.
Yu Lian was about to cry but had no tears, and was speechless for a moment.
"La la la, I am a happy sweeper~~~" A burst of joyful music came, but the intelligent cleaning robot on standby in the corner of the dome garden had already sensed the existence of the garbage dump, and drove over like this.
"Guest, please give in a moment! Thank you for your cooperation!"
Yu Lian felt inexplicable grief and anger: "So, why ebony stone? Ebony stone is not guilty!"
Feifei pretended not to hear, looking at the busy robot, her eyes suddenly rolled: "Speaking of which, this cleaning robot belongs to Lebon, right? It is also controlled by the Rainbow Rose Foundation."
"If you break it, you'll have to pay compensation according to the price. The hotel's security will also be alerted, and they'll show up at that time."
"Look what you said, when did I say I was going to smash the robot? I am such a harmless, kind and pure good girl." Feifei glanced sideways at Yu Lian.
"Then why is the ebony stone? The ebony stone has not offended you."
Also, do you think I don’t know that you are angry at Yani? How has that white-furred fox offended you recently?
"Of course it's because of my movie. The biggest production of the year is going to be gone!" Feifei waved her hand: "Obviously, most of the shots have been shot, and it's going to go away if it's gone!"
"Is this really going to be gone? After all, it is also an annual major production promoted by Universal!"
"Yes, it will be gone. After I came out, I have been contacting the production and government departments, hoping to finish filming the rest." Feifei put her hands on her hips and hummed: "But, they said that they have already studied and decided.
, all the footage is now evidence, and has been taken away by people from the alliance security department. Hahaha, once something involves the security department, you don’t know how many years and months it will be delayed."
Yu Lian expressed sympathy, but he still couldn't accept it: "But Hei Tan Shi is innocent. Besides, wasn't this matter decided last week? You waited until now to get angry?"
"That's because I have been patient before! Yu'er, women have two faces, one is for the world, and the other is for the people closest to them. I have suppressed my anger until now, and then I vented it in front of you.
Come out, doesn't this mean I love you?"
Yu Lian felt that there was some truth to what he said. Although he was still sad about the tragic fate of Ebony Stone, he could still understand it as long as he accepted this setting.
Therefore, Yu Lian said in a sympathetic tone: "I am on the front line, and there are too many things that are shrouded in clouds and mountains, and it is really unclear. You are at the scene, do you know what is going on?"
"...Yu'er, under normal circumstances, shouldn't you be hugging me and saying some thoughtful words to me now?"
"Well, if you want me to say that you are my heart, you are my liver, and you are three-quarters of my life, I can tell you that. But do you want it?"
"Thank you, you really disgusted me." Feifei suddenly showed an expression of discomfort, then snatched half a box of wrinkled old knives from Yu Lian's hand, threw it on the ground and crushed it.
"La la la la~~~Happy cleaning work~~~~Please stop deliberately creating garbage. I will also be angry if you continue like this. Just kidding~~~" the sweeping robot floated over again with its happy singing voice.
.
"Look, look! Lao Dao is not guilty either. You calm down."
Feifei finally showed a satisfied smile and said slowly: "My male protagonists are all on the dangerous list of the Alliance Security Department, so they are calm enough now, okay?"
