Chapter 502

Li Wei and others passed through the crowd and continued to walk forward.

"Brother! Brother! I'm here!" Lina noticed his arrival and warmly greeted him from the crowd.

"Lina." Looking at the heroic, plump younger sister in front of him, who has grown from a green girl to a capable young woman, Li Wei couldn't help sighing: "Long time no see, you have grown up again."

It is true that he and Lena have not seen each other for a long time.

Not long after the Battle of Ionia ended two years ago, Lina took the initiative to sign up as a foreign aid cadre that was urgently needed by the organization at that time, supporting the grassroots frontline in Ionia.

Since then, she has stayed in Ionia, contributing her own strength to a series of important tasks such as land reform, social transformation, and economic development in Ionia.

Although in theory, there is a hexgate between Zaun and the province of Barua, she can come back when she wants to go on vacation.

However, the situation at the grassroots level in Ionia is extremely complicated, the work is very heavy, and the number of leaders in the local area is seriously short
They all wanted to treat women like men, and men like LeBlanc—how could they be in the mood to go on vacation and go back to Zaun to visit their relatives?
Therefore, Li Wei has not seen his sister for more than half a year now.

This time, it was because Lina was selected as an outstanding representative of Zaan's foreign aid cadres, and as an invited hero model, he returned to Zaan to participate in the celebration and receive the commendation, so he could see his sister again.

"Brother!" After reuniting after a long absence, Lina also seemed very clingy.

She completely lost the little dislike she had for her brother back then, and as soon as they met, she slammed into Li Wei's arms like a swallow.

"Lina." Li Wei quietly enjoyed the warm embrace of his younger sister, and it took a long time before he separated from her.

Then, he couldn't help but said: "You have done a good job in Ionia for the past two years."

"Of course!" After working on the front line in Ionia for a long time and interacting with all kinds of people, Lina's personality seems to have become much brighter.

She proudly displayed her badge of honor, and said with a smile: "I am a hero model representative, and I didn't come for nothing!"

"En." Li Wei nodded deeply.He has been secretly paying attention to Lina's situation, and it turns out that Lina has long been a more mature and determined leader than him.

"However." Looking at his sister who had been away for a long time, he still couldn't help but said: "Now Ionia has gradually cultivated its own grassroots cadre team."

"There is no need for Zaan's foreign aid cadres, or else"

"Are you still going back to Zaun to work?"

Relatives, especially brothers and sisters, are easy to get bored after staying for a long time, but once they are separated, they will be missed again.

Li Wei couldn't help persuading her, and didn't expect her to agree.

But Lina nodded in surprise and responded, "Well, bro, I was just about to tell you about this."

In Ionia, there is indeed no shortage of foreign aid cadres in Zaun.

Even, because Ionia was short of cadres in the early days, Zaun supported too many people at that time. As a result, two-thirds of the middle and high-level positions in the Ionia branch are now held by outsiders from Zaun
"This point has caused dissatisfaction among many people in Ionia."

The national identity of the Ionians finally came to an end two years ago, during the anti-aggression war of blood and fire.

They exchanged the blood of countless people for their national independence, and now is the time when national sentiment is high and intense.

Therefore, most Ionians instinctively cannot accept the fact that they are now "ruled by foreigners".

In theory, though, these Zaun cadres are steadfast leaders, selfless fighters of international justice, with threads of faith that prove their purity and that they can be trusted.

but.
The reality is that the great unity of mankind is far from coming.Most Ionians are still masses, or superficial windchasers.

They are now more recognized nations than beliefs;
They also trust their own people more than foreigners.

The abnormal proportion of foreign officials in the Ionia branch has stirred people's sensitive nerves.

"So." Lina said: "The Ionia branch decided to follow the national sentiment of the masses first, withdraw a group of Zaun cadres, and reasonably adjust the proportion of local foreign cadres..."

"And I'm one of them."

"I see." Li Wei nodded.

He did know about it.The Ionian branch also reported to him and the central council that the proportion of foreign cadres should be adjusted.

Li Wei knows that the barriers between countries, nations and races are not so easily broken by ideals and beliefs.

So the Central Council passed the proposal.

Not only in Ionia, but also in Demacia and Noxus, these franchise countries with a strong nationalist atmosphere, leaders must pay attention to this issue in the future and consider the national sentiment of the local people.

However, under Li Wei's suggestion, the General Assembly added another one to this series of policies.

That is to not only rationally adjust the proportion of foreign cadres in each franchise country, but also plan and purposefully select cadres from different nationalities and rotate them to serve in other franchise countries.

Ionians can go to Noxus as cadres, and Noxians can go to Demacia as cadres.
At the beginning, the number of people does not need to be too many, but it must be implemented slowly, with a view to starting from the superstructure and gradually uniting the entire Runeterra.

After that, everything is left to time.

As the education of the Lord Janna became more and more popular, the generation of people who harbored hatred gradually passed away, the political and economic exchanges between regions became more and more close, the population flow became more and more frequent, and the races became more and more It's getting harder to separate you from me.
One day, all of humanity will truly unite.

Li Wei knew the ins and outs of this matter.

"It's just that I didn't expect you to be among these returning cadres." He looked at his sister with some concern: "Then Lina, what are you going to do when you come back? Are there any organizational arrangements?"

"Well." Lina nodded: "The application I submitted to the organization has been approved. After returning to Zaun, I will go back to my old job and engage in scientific research."

Although she is not as stunning and talented as Jess and Victor, she is still a rare little genius.

Returning to Zu'an to engage in scientific research is also a professional counterpart.

"Oh?" Li Wei was happy to see his sister come back.

So he asked again with concern: "Then which unit did you go to, and what exactly did you do?"

"Zuan's Aerospace Propulsion Research Institute is engaged in Hex rocket research," Lina said.

"Aerodynamics Research Institute? Rocket research?" Li Wei was taken aback for a moment.

He personally approved this project, in order to develop a bigger and better rocket to send satellites into space.

However, how could he remember that the current person in charge of the Rocket Research Laboratory seems to be...
"It's here!" A little girl with blue hair and double ponytails squeezed out from the crowd.

"Jinx" Li Wei's face darkened: "It's you?"

"That's right. Sister Lena will be my colleague from now on." Jinx proudly puffed out her steel plate-like chest, and stood beside Lena excitedly.

Nearly three years have passed, and Lina has grown taller again, but this girl is still as thin as a little wild cat.

Compared with Lena, who is well-dressed and has a quiet temperament, Jinx looks even more extreme.

Even, among the many people at the ceremony, she was the most conspicuous one.

Because leaders only use the line of belief to distinguish between far and near, never judge people by their appearance, and truly respect any culture and any aesthetic.

In addition, Jinx is not a front-line cadre who needs to show his face, but a scientific researcher in the rear, so there is no dress code for them in the organization.
Therefore, she still looks not too different from the little sister of Zaan back then.

Tattoos, double ponytails, crop tops, purple stockings, punk martin boots, and pants that save more fabric than other people's underwear. They are obviously well-equipped scientists, but they look like outlaws to the pirates in the port of Chebi.
Seeing this kind of "little sister" playing with his younger sister all day long, even an older brother would instinctively twitch.

"Leaders can't judge people by their appearance, and they can't judge people by their appearance." Li Wei silently recited a few politically correct scriptures, and finally calmed down the turbulent mood.

He knew that Jinx was a good girl now.

Hmm. Even if she smokes, drinks, dyes her hair, has tattoos and wears a navel-baring outfit, as long as she has a thread of faith, she is still a trustworthy girl.

Since becoming independent from Zaun, Jinx has been giving full play to her strengths and inventing several useful weapons and equipment for the leader.

The Jinx rocket launcher invented by Jinx and the transformable machine gun with a super high rate of fire have made great contributions to the fact that the Zaun people can block the enemy for so long in the underworld war.

Later, as a talented rocket expert, she joined the sounding rocket project promoted by Li Wei and became a chief researcher of the Institute of Aerospace Propulsion.

In short, after more than two years, Jinx not only did not cause trouble for everyone, but also made a lot of contributions to the organization.

Although it seems unreliable, she is still trustworthy.

Even Jinx, as an outstanding representative of the scientific community this time, was invited to watch the ceremony with the approval of her colleagues and the organization.

"Okay." Li Wei sighed: "Lena, you can work wherever you like. I don't care about you anymore."

"Yeah." Lina nodded obediently.

Li Wei let go of this worry, and looked at Jinx who was sticking to his sister: "Jinx, is your family okay?"

Although everyone lives in the same city, Li Wei usually has a lot of business, so it may be a long time since he saw Wei, Van der, and Silko.

When he saw Jinx this time, he asked by the way,
"It's just like before." Jinx pouted.

After Vandel regained his sanity, he returned to Zaun with his two daughters, and reopened the tavern in Zaun Black Lane.

Shirko also lived in retirement.He used to be a mafia tycoon in Zaun, and later he was able to retire in time because of his deeds, but his unclean background and disgraceful past still attract people's slander.

In addition, Zaun has become better and better, and his wish for many years has been realized thousands of times by the leader.

As a result, Silko completely let go of his ambitions, resigned from the position given to him by the leader, and freely donated all the property he had accumulated in the past, and became a retired old man with peace of mind.

Usually drink tea, read newspapers, and occasionally let Jinx accompany and chat to pass the leisure time.

Of course, the two fathers of Jinx are still repelling each other up to now, maintaining an attitude of never getting in touch with each other.

The hatred they have accumulated in the past is too deep to be easily resolved.

"As for Wei"

"Hmph!" Jinx snorted unhappily: "Isn't she following that Piltover chick all day long?"

Caitlin, a former policewoman in Piltover, is now the Chief Sheriff of the Twin Cities Police Department.

And Vi is her most effective partner, the most capable law enforcement officer.

They are responsible for coordinating the overall situation, planning and implementing the security work of today's alliance celebration.

"These two guys get tired of being together all the time, and today is no exception. It's really disgusting." Jinx commented very rudely.

"Did you know? Vi even nicknamed that Picheng girl her 'Little Cake'."

"yue~ I'm about to throw up when I hear it."

Jinx was exaggeratedly acting retching.Li Wei has long been used to her attitude.

Because of the severe trauma in her childhood, this girl has always been a little extreme in her personality - especially towards her sister.

Later, after Seraphine's soul treatment, "Doctor" Mundo was cured and discharged, and she did not fully recover her mental health.

Fortunately, Jinx is mostly back to normal.

Now she can be regarded as a leader who has just reached the threshold of faith. Even if she has pursued her ideals, she has become aware of the rules.This small character problem does not affect her daily life.

So, after Li Wei calmly listened to her complaints, and briefly learned about the current situation of Vander and others, he stopped asking more questions.

"I'll go first, let's talk." Li Wei said goodbye to Lina and Jinx briefly, and then continued to walk forward.

And he didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by an unexpected acquaintance.

"President Li Wei, please stay."

Li Wei followed the prestige, and saw a gloomy man wearing the Medal of Honor of a hero model, but with a thin figure, a cold gray complexion, and gloomy eyes. He didn't look like a good person at all, walking towards him slowly.

"Mr Singed?"

The person who came was the former Zaun alchemist, Mr. Singed, Victor's teacher.

"I have a request." As soon as he came to Li Wei, Singed said straight to the point: "I refuse to participate in today's award ceremony as a representative of the scientific community."

Yes, Singed is also a representative of the scientific community who was invited to watch the ceremony and receive commendations today.

This sounds incredible.

Because there are many big names in the scientific world today, in addition to Singed and Jinx, there are also Jess, Ike, Victor, and Heimerdinger.

Victor is already the vice president, the one who presents awards to people on stage.

But Professor Heimerdinger is the founder of modern science in Runeterra, and Professor Jess is the pioneer of Hex applied technology;
Ike is a scientific genius of the new generation.The alchemy floating skateboard he invented has become the prototype of the floating car, and it is likely to set off a transportation revolution in Runeterra in the future.

Singed, who used to be an extreme scientific madman, how can he accept the honor on the same stage with these brilliant stars?

"This..." Li Wei was also quite helpless: "Mr. Singed."

"It's not that we want to invite you, it's that your voice among the masses is too high, and everyone hopes that you can come."

Surprisingly, Singed, who was once unknown, is now the most popular scientist in Runeterra.

There is no other reason, only because after the leader took power, he was forced to stop the evil body modification research, and instead used alchemy technology to research projects to improve people's livelihood.

For example, his improved alchemy fuel.

Another example is the famous alchemy fast-growing chicken.

"It's all because of your invention that the people of Runeterra can eat meat so quickly."

Because the development of various regions in Runeterra is extremely uneven, it is still difficult for people outside the two cities to feel the convenience brought by Hex Technology.

But the fast-growing chicken breed transformed by alchemy technology, the real chicken that can be eaten in the mouth, can always be exchanged for people's heartfelt gratitude.

His invention has enabled many poor people who cannot afford meat to live a life of eating chicken every day.As a result, Singed's reputation surpassed that of Heimerdinger, becoming the most popular scientist in Runeterra.

"No." Singed looked unhappy.

His ideal is to transform the human body, to create gods with flesh and blood!it's good now.
Everyone knows that he studies "chicken body transformation", and affectionately calls him "chicken raising academician"!
If he bears this name and accepts the award in front of the whole world. Bah!This is an insult to his faith!
"I refuse to be commended!" Singed said.

"Well." Li Wei thought about it seriously, but readily agreed: "Yes."

In fact, he has always had doubts about Singed being selected as a hero model representative.

Because he knew that Singed was not a good person before, and now he is just a bad person forced to be a good person.

To put it mildly, Singed is an old friend of the leader and has made great contributions to all mankind.

To put it bluntly, he is now a prisoner, reluctantly forced to use his knowledge to atone for his past crimes.

nothing else
Based on the heinous body modification Singed made to Fandre, if there were no leaders to stop him, Jinx and Vi might have joined together as sisters and beat him into a sieve.

In short, it was because his potential value was too great that the leaders did not liquidate him.That's all.

Heroes and models are role models for all human beings. They must not only have talents and contributions, but also have beliefs and qualities that can play an exemplary role.

Singed clearly doesn't fit that bill.

Thinking about it carefully, the leader really shouldn't let him come out as a role model just because he is famous and popular.

It happened right now, and Xin Jide himself was not willing to show his face, so Li Wei simply agreed to take him off the list.

"But, you happen to be here too."

"Huh?" Singed frowned vigilantly.

He remembered Li Wei's expression.

Li Wei had this expression last time when his mind was wide open and he was forced to use alchemy technology to study chickens.

"What do you want me to do again?" Singed asked.

"I'm thinking about it." Li Wei boldly put forward his imagination: "A skinny man who doesn't have much fat can grow a whole body of tendons out of thin air in just a few seconds with just a little twilight potion. "

"You say, if we associate shimmer potions with chickens."

"Are you hungry and crazy?" Singed interrupted angrily: "Do you dare to eat the chicken produced by the shimmer potion?"

"I'm not crazy about hunger." Li Wei's face was very serious, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

"But you have to know that the nascent Janna Lord Alliance is actually an extremely backward agricultural country. More than 90% of our population lives in the countryside and mountains, and there are still countless children who are hungry."

"If the shimmering agent can be used to quickly produce edible meat, then we can quickly get rid of the plight of lack of meat and malnutrition for thousands of children in backward areas."

Singed could not refute this noble reason.But he didn't care about hungry strangers.

He still objected: "No, the shimmer potion is poisonous."

"But I have consulted with experts beforehand." Li Wei is not a layman guiding experts, he has consulted with professionals.

Speaking, Li Wei pointed to Victor standing beside him, Singed's former favorite student.

"Victor said yes."

"Theoretically, as long as the shimmering potion is properly diluted and detoxified, the flesh and blood tissue it produces will not be harmful to humans."

Of course, it's easier said than done.

How to reduce the cost of shimmering medicine and how to control the toxicity, each problem is a difficulty.

How about implementing it specifically: "It depends on your research results, Mr. Singed."

Singed: "."

For the rest of his life, he will be on the fence?
"Can't I study something else?" He asked unwillingly.

"Of course." Li Wei quickly introduced: "Recently, Zaan imported a new batch of Juvask wild boars."

"Why don't you lead a team to study the artificial breeding of wild boar?"

Singed: "."
