Because at this moment, the phone bug's head was held up in front of his eyes by the bald old man, less than twenty centimeters away from him.
A familiar voice as sweet as the sound of a spring came from the open mouth:
"Hello? Are you there? Soldier over there, are you from the headquarters?"
"..."
Nuo Xia was silent for a long time, then said with a strange expression: "Yes, Brigadier."
"Eh?"
The phone bug was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly widened and he screamed, "Why is it you!"
………………
South China Sea.
In a remote and unfamiliar sea area, heavy snowflakes were flying all over the sky, and the icy cold breath spread wantonly on the sea surface, making the navy soldiers on duty on the deck of the warship tremble with cold.
"why you!"
Hearing the exclamation from the bow of the ship, many soldiers turned their heads in surprise and found Major General Gion holding a phone. His eyes widened and he stood up suddenly, his red face full of surprise.
As if realizing that her scream was too loud, she turned around, smiled apologetically at the soldiers, then turned around again, spoke in a low voice into the microphone:
"Hey...how could it be you?"
Although his voice was lowered, he couldn't hide the excitement of surprise like a little girl.
"I'm surprised too, Brigadier."
The voice on the other end of the phone was inexplicably offended, "But it looks like you are more surprised... Hey, don't show a strange expression. I can clearly see the change in your demeanor just now through the phone bug, tsk,
This thing is really a good thing..."
Damn phone bug, Peach Rabbit wrinkled the tip of his nose, his teeth itched with hatred.
"I'm a major general now." She said angrily, "Why, we haven't seen each other for more than a month. You can't even remember such a thing?"
"Ah, I'm used to it and I'm too lazy to change my words."
The young man said with a smile, "Besides, if I call you Major General, I have to remember that I have to become a Lieutenant General in order for you to take the initiative to confess your love. The courage on my shoulders is heavy and the pressure is great..."
"How can you mention this in front of others..." Taotu raised his eyebrows.
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. I've slipped away a long time ago. Let's go. As for you, go farther away..."
A rustling sound of pushing was heard, and after a moment there was movement on the microphone again, "Hey, Brigadier, are you still listening? Just now the old man wanted to come over and eavesdrop, but I pushed him away.
"
"Be polite to the elderly, young man." Taotu then remembered what was going on and frowned slightly, "What on earth is going on? What did you do to Mr. Anka over there?"
"What did he tell you on the phone?"
"It is said that he asked the navy to help him regain the goods, but he was ruined a lot by the clumsy navy. There was also a kid from the headquarters who bullied others. Not only did he not admit it, he also wanted to beat him in turn..."
"People can be so shameless." The phone bug showed admiration, "Do you believe it?"
"Mr. Anka's words are never trustworthy." Taotu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he was suppressing a smile, "But if the person he accuses is you, you can barely believe it for once."
"What kind of words is this!"
The phone bug's eyes widened and he imitated "Qu" perfectly, "Am I so unworthy in your heart? Am I even less trustworthy than a smelly old man with a bad attitude?"
"When did the truth ever come out of your mouth?"
Taotu smiled and said, "Okay, tell me, what actually happened to make Mr. Anka do that. When I heard his voice just now, I was afraid that he would make himself mad."
"Then it's a long story. It starts yesterday afternoon..."
The Grand Line, on the warship of the G2 branch.
Nuo Xia sat cross-legged on the railing, holding the microphone and narrating what happened, letting out a proud chuckle from time to time, while the Ghost Spider and others in the distance stood there blankly, dumbfounded.
——What's going on? Didn't the old man find the senior management of the headquarters and plan to reprimand him severely?
Why are there two people now...
Are you still talking on the phone?
The ghost spider turned his head and glanced at the bald old man with a strange expression. The latter's eyes were also wide-eyed, and he almost wrote the words "disbelief" on the top of his head.
"So that's what happened..."
After listening to the description from Nuo Xia's perspective, Taotu probably understood, and rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, "Mr. Anka is still the same as before, stingy, ungrateful, and likes to make up stories and blame them..."
"What's your relationship with him?" Nuo Xia was a little puzzled, "Why do I have to call you, your relative, for such a trivial matter?"
"Well... not really."
Taotu held her delicate chin and thought for a while, "At most, he is my father's friend. He has known me since childhood, but our friendship was only average. Until last year, his caravan rescued several of my subordinates. In order to express my gratitude, I
I just left my phone number and told him to call him if he encounters danger or difficulty..."
"I don't even have your number!"
The phone bug in front of her suddenly raised more than one tone, interrupting her words.
"You didn't even ask."
The anger and eagerness in that voice could be heard thousands of miles away. Taotu couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"Besides, what does it matter if you have a number? You are a little recruit, and the headquarters will not equip you with a phone bug that can make calls across sea areas..."
"I can borrow it from the branch."
The young man groaned and said, "I go back to the branch every few days and want to make a phone call. That can't be done at any time..."
"I also stayed in the G2 branch for a while. It was the busiest branch in the entire Grand Line. The phone bugs in the communications room were always occupied, and the long-distance calls almost never stopped."
Taotu brushed the hair from his forehead and said with a chuckle, "You are a small recruit and you don't have many acquaintances there. It's not that easy to borrow someone."
"How did you know that I was in the G2 branch? Those were all temporary arrangements made by Teacher Zefa..."
The phone bug's expression was a little puzzled at first, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and a voice came out with a fist and a sudden realization:
"I understand, you must be thinking a lot about me, so you went to see Teacher Zefa specifically to ask, right?"
"..."
Taotu turned his head, trying not to let the phone bug imitate the blush on his face, "No, Mr. Anka just told me."
"lie."
"..."
"Oh, by the way, I suddenly remembered that when I went back to the branch last time, the staff officer I knew said that someone seemed to have called me and asked about me in those days. I hurried to get on the warship and didn't pay attention. Now thinking about it, it couldn't be
You?"
"...It's not me, don't make blind guesses."
"Still lying."
"..."
"Oh, by the way, let me remind you that the phone bug in front of me is also twisting his neck like you, but his face is still as red as an apple..."
"!"
Taotu suddenly turned around and glared at the phone bug in his hand, gritting his silver teeth in anger.
The light blue little telephone bug didn't understand why its master was angry. After blinking, he decided to do his best to carry out his imitation duties to the end.
——Then the next moment.
Thousands of miles away, Nuo Xia on the other end of the phone saw that the phone bug in front of him suddenly became angry. He glared angrily at him and gritted his teeth.
"Ah, the phone bug is really the most amazing species in the world."
He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled and raised the little guy, and let out a heartfelt sigh, "Are you right, Brigadier?"
