Earth Invasion

Chapter 46 Balance

Enough! Really enough! What the hell have I done wrong?! Well, I really shouldn’t be meddling! I really shouldn’t be in Picasso, I really shouldn’t be chasing any individuality, any freedom! I should Honestly find an internship in a unit in China, and then go to work honestly!
"There is nothing you need to do here, Your Royal Highness." Zhang Mai replied bluntly, "Please go back, please don't disturb my work."

"But, I think I should apologize to you and help you... After all, you are because of me..."

"No! Your Royal Highness, you misunderstood!" Zhang Mai took a step back calmly, avoiding An's hand, "This is the price I have to pay for my innocence. Of course, you don't have to feel guilty, I should not be killed, and soon, I will return to my hometown and live in peace."

Ann blushed instantly, and tears began to roll in her eyes.There is no doubt that Zhang Mai is the first earth person who made her feel good.After seeing all kinds of earthlings who are arrogant and look at their Assyrians like livestock, Zhang Mai, who is desperate to save herself, is undoubtedly in her heart. occupies a relatively important position.

However, the act of "saving himself" put Zhang Mai in a dilemma.

"No! That's not innocence! Mr. Zhang Mai! That's courage and kindness! You've seen the difference between people on Earth!" An Gao said, her fists clenched tightly, her hands twitching with excitement trembling slightly.

"So..." She walked up quickly and grabbed the mop in Zhang Mai's hand, "Please let me..."

"No!" Zhang Mai shrank back fiercely!She broke free from her hand, "Please, please let me keep a piece of boring pride, okay?"

At this moment, the bell at the door rang, and Dongfang Hao pushed the door open and walked in.

"Yo, which song is this? "Cosmic Wind"?"

For Dongfang Hao's teasing, Zhang Mai did not answer, but walked away quickly with his head down and a mop, and began to wipe the floor of the booth.

"Okay, the young man is very diligent, and he seems to be a good boy at home." Dongfang Hao took out the cigarette case from his arms, then grabbed an ashtray on the booth, and lit the cigarette.With artificial gravity on the satellite, you don't have to worry about soot flying around.

"Mr. Captain! You can't treat him like this!"

"Then how do you think I should treat him? Your Royal Highness. Yes, he intends to save you, but judging from the results, his actions did not have any positive effect. Without him, we can quickly rescue you , and the fastest hemostasis. In addition, without this person, we would not have risked a fight in the space of L3. You know, it is lucky that people from other PMC companies in L3 did not see it. If it is discovered, you Do you think your life is still guaranteed? From these aspects, it is very kind of me not to throw him into space to freeze popsicles."

Dongfang Hao's preemptive meal almost left Her Royal Highness speechless.

"So, Your Royal Highness, we are businessmen, not philanthropists. Your treatment is guaranteed by the client's funds. But he is not, so he has to prove his worth. We are followers of Machiavelli, We only pay attention to the purpose of doing things. In addition, this is a satellite, and all agricultural products need to be imported. Food is precious, so we don’t raise idlers.”

There was deathly silence, except for the sound of Zhang Mai mopping the floor there.An's pair of blue crystal eyes fixed on Dongfang Hao's face.After a while, she suddenly reached out and took off a string of necklaces from her neck.

It was a necklace composed of platinum inlaid with sapphires and broken diamonds. From the perspective of style, it was a native Assyrian craft.The shape of ivy and flowers wraps around a thumb-sized sapphire.Get it to Sotheby's, and it is estimated that it can be auctioned for a staggering price.

"This is enough!" Ann put the necklace on the table next to Dongfang Hao.

"Take it back!" Dongfang Hao and Zhang Mai said this sentence almost at the same time.

Dongfang Hao glanced at Zhang Mai who was gnashing his teeth there.He picked up the necklace and handed it to the little princess who was frightened by the two roars.

"Your Highness, please understand one thing. Labor is not something to be ashamed of. It is very normal for him to exchange labor for his own reward. Your attitude of giving alms will cause him great dissatisfaction. Although you want to Use your own method to repay his idea of ​​saving you. But please understand that this is the earth, not Assyria, and he is a member of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is not much different from the Westerners you usually come into contact with. Same. If you do this, it is an insult to him. Although what he did has caused me a lot of trouble, I still appreciate this kid's daring attitude. So..."

Dongfang Hao tapped his head: "Please use your brain more before making a decision."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about An's reaction, but directly changed the subject.

"Since you have nothing to do, let me explain some things to you, because next, you need to make your own decision."

……

The explanation of the political situation is dry and boring.Especially when the language barrier between the two parties requires the use of a translator.Sometimes Dongfang Hao had to use many kinds of expressions to explain the meaning clearly.Of course Ann is not stupid.During the conversation, she also gradually grasped a point of what Dongfang Hao said about the situation on the earth.

The three-party balance can be said to be a basic entry point for the situation on the earth.The balance of space, the balance of the ground, the balance of the asteroid belt, and the balance of Assyria.In these major aspects, the three parties have made their own choices, forming a more multilateral dynamic balance.In this three-party balance drama, the Recycler Association is one weight, and Assyria is another.

The move of the British to force their father and king to agree to the marriage has actually destroyed the balance of the situation. Therefore, the next step of the game between the three parties is required to form a balance again.If the game fails, then it will be a war involving two galaxies.

"You mean, next, I have to choose whether to fall to the space circle you mentioned or NATO?" An tried hard to maintain his posture.

"Yes."

"Listen to your explanation, does the Circulator Association you belong to hope to gain some advantages on the side of the space circle?"

"Yes, we now need the support of the space circle to maintain our independence.

"So what happens if I choose NATO?"

Dongfang Hao didn't speak, but made a gesture of cutting his throat on his neck.

"So I have no choice?"

Dongfang Hao laughed: "Your Highness, on the Assyrian planet, NATO forces have the upper hand. If they want to find a balance in the space circle, they must win over you Assyrians. This at least means that you can sell yourself for a good price. Isn't it?"

His unabashed statement made Ann bow her head, as if she collapsed in an instant.

"Then, Your Royal Highness, please rest well. In the evening, call your maid and say that there are cooks, including that young man..." Dongfang Hao pointed back at Zhang Mai, "I will take you for a tour A night view of 'Uno'."

"Mr. Captain, do you think I am in this mood?"

"You will have it." Dongfang Hao snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, "As Her Royal Highness Princess of the Sifah Dynasty, you should visit the people living here."

Her Royal Highness's body trembled visibly.

Standing up, Dongfang Hao bent down and whispered in the little princess' ear.

"This afternoon, at [-]:[-] GMT, NATO and D.S.A are expected to issue a statement on the forced marriage incident at the same time. At that time, everything will officially start. But you don't have to worry, this world is so wonderful, maybe There may be some twists and turns in the plot."
