imperfections

Votto.

The female reporter of the Watto Daily looked at the old man in front of her. Although she firmly believed in the prophet, she couldn't help being a little shaken at this time.Not only did Woolf not turn into an involuntary humanoid puppet like the outside legends, but he still looked good, with a rare tinge of blood on his withered face, and his eyes were bright, as if something good had happened, enthusiastically Tell her to sit down.

There was a special fragrance of flowers in the reception room, and the female reporter flattered casually: "Your indoor incense is really special, what is it?"

"Black Tulip, also called Queen of the Night." Woolf laughed, "I still have a lot of seeds, if you like, you can take some away."

The female reporter noticed his smile, and couldn't help being slightly taken aback. It wasn't a polite smile for social use. His eyes were stretched open, and the light reflected in his eyes was like a handful of broken gold, which was jumping slightly, just like many years. His long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and suddenly he feels joy from his heart. For some reason, people can't help being happy with him after seeing it.

The female reporter couldn't help but blurted out an unplanned question: "Marshal, is there any good news recently? You seem to be in a good mood."

Woolf smiled without saying a word, and took the topic out calmly. The two chatted for a while, and the female reporter glanced down at her wrist, and a green light flashed on the inside of her wrist. The latest genetic testing device was installed in the terminal, which can avoid the security check of the Marshal's Mansion. This thing has been analyzing the genes of the person in front of him since the two people came into contact-it is indeed Woolf himself.

Not a fake, and no fatal genetic disease.

"Marshal, let's talk about Order [-]. I heard that many people don't understand your decision recently. In particular, many Central Military Forces resisted Order [-] by delaying the way. Some people said sarcastically, You are a 'living man', and you know that poor relatives in the countryside are more terrifying than robbers, so let the pirates go, and if there is any trouble in the rose heart, you must strictly guard it."

Woolf replied without changing his face: "If you noticed, the increase of the Rose Heart's troops is not unrestrained. Our basis is the 'border guard' standard. Because of the unexpected passage of the Rose Heart, it is now It is an undisputed frontier, right? The heart of the rose and the direction outside the territory are both borders, and we just treat them equally."

"What you mean is that it is equivalent to admitting the independence of the eighth galaxy."

"There are still debates in the parliament," Woolf said cautiously, "but geographically speaking, the eighth galaxy has a time-space barrier with the alliance, and the center of the alliance is difficult to control. It has not been connected with the alliance for 16 years, and it has constituted an independent essence; from the perspective of internal affairs In theory, they have a complete government and army, and their own legal system. They are not interstellar pirates who live by robbery and plunder, and have even accepted a large number of refugees from other galaxies. Their existence is just, and even Jingheng is willing to recognize them. .Then according to the Declaration of Freedom, as long as it is the will of the people, the eighth galaxy has the right to withdraw from the Star Alliance. In our actual deployment, it is also reasonable to treat the Heart of Rose as a 'border'..."

Wang Ailun looked away from the monitor, and said to the contact person in his personal terminal: "The queen of the night is really amazing. First, people's memory is confused, and then they are delirious. Step by step, follow your guidance and immerse themselves in a beautiful dream. To be you What makes him want to do, the key is that in the process, he can also spontaneously complete the logic inside, and explain his abnormality by himself, which is calmer than biochips that are easily detected by instruments. The great new ephemeris In this era, even puppets are fully automatic."

The mysterious contact person in the personal terminal took off the big hood that covered the entire upper body, revealing Lin Jingshu's face: "Then there must be someone who has been with him for nearly 200 years and knows everything about him."

As she said this, she turned her eyes and laughed a little strangely: "But having said that, the 'Queen of the Night' can make some people inflate into monarchs, make some people richer than galaxies, and make some people get revenge... ...But remembering first love? What kind of thing is this, it sounds too stupid, I can't connect this kind of thing with the marshal, this is really a black humor that can make me laugh for half a year."

"Ma'am," Wang Ailun said, pretending to be stern, "you take power, money, and bloodshed for granted, and only true love is a stupid joke. This is not politically correct."

The two looked at each other for a moment through the personal terminal, and laughed at the same time.

Lin Jingshu wiped away the tears from her laughter: "Be careful of that woman from Watto Daily, she is not just a pen."

"I know that the anti-University will be the little bastard under Harris's subordinates." Wang Ailun said indifferently, "Harris was exiled in the eighth galaxy, and he came back to power in the Anti-University. I was the contact person throughout the whole process. He is a transparent person in my eyes, and he can't find any tricks."

"The Secretary-General said so, so I'll just believe it." Lin Jingshu said softly, "But... if the partner is unreliable, he will be abandoned."

Wang Ailun seemed to have been licked by a poisonous snake, and the smile on his face that hadn't dissipated in time suddenly couldn't hang on.

"It's just a reminder, nothing else." Lin Jingshu showed her face again, "A few small bugs crawled out of the wormhole that had been abnormal for half a month, and now I should have a good chat with Duke's people. The veteran has not reported to the Military Commission, has he?"

Wang Ailun's jaw tightened.

The Qiu Bamen of the Central Army look down on him. Wang Ailun knows that he has no military merits, has never led a team, and has never fought a single battle. Woolf's servant girl.

As soon as Wang Ailun graduated, he worked as a private secretary by Woolf's side. He worked on artificial intelligence for nearly 200 years, devoting himself to trivial matters. Give them a chance, will Woolf not understand?

After so many years, he really regarded him as an artificial intelligence without a mind of his own!

As long as Woolf dies, the current Alliance Parliament will not count as a fart. Wang Ailun can now deeply understand why the Eden Management Committee refused to delegate military autonomy when it died.

Wang Ailun said word by word: "I will let them know that Woolf is old, even if Lu Xin's stele is rebuilt, it is only made of stone. I will let them know whose era it is."

"Okay, Uncle Allen, I'll wait and see," Lin Jingshu said, "Fortunately, there are people from me in the Border Guards of the First Galaxy, and I have sent a few people to sow discord for you. You are welcome."

The interview has come to an end, Woolf has not revealed any flaws, and the female reporter of the Watto Daily seems not to have noticed any clues.Wang Ailun ordered his subordinates in a low voice: "Keep an eye on her, around the clock, if there is any abnormality, silence it immediately."

The eighth galaxy, Venus.

"I don't believe it, what is General Lu Xin's old department—I don't think General Lu Xin's eyes are very good." Turan was the first to say, "Isn't Ankelu a lesson from the past? What a coincidence, as soon as ours arrived, Heart of Rose was ambushed by pirates before going out? What is the border guards of the first galaxy doing? They strengthened their patrols and let them sneak in? Is Duke stupid or did it on purpose? He also specially sent Lord, a badass, to show affection Brand, commander, rub your eyes and see for yourself, does this little white-faced, sharp-mouthed monkey-cheek look as good as our chief, Yushu Linfeng?"

Lin Jingheng: "..."

Who is the chief?

Lu Bixing hastily coughed dryly: "If other pirates sneaked in through the border guards, that's impossible, but it's hard to say about the Freedom Legion. Secret users of opium are everywhere. On the day of the surrender of the Glory Regiment, the asteroids in the Alliance and Central It’s not that the kidnapping under Jun’s nose hasn’t happened before... Lin, is this Lord credible?”

"Lord?" Lin Jingheng frowned slowly, and said carefully, "You have indeed been my personal guard."

Lu Bixing asked: "What is the specific position of the head of the bodyguard?"

"Chief of Guards" Lu Bixing knew a little from Zhan Lu, but currently there is no such position in the eighth galaxy.

If Lin Jingheng travels in mechs, the guards usually only use people from the Silver Ten Guards, and the others are not enough for him to get in the way.But at this time, sorting out the military defense of the entire eighth galaxy, everything started, Lin Jingheng had very little personal time, and when he had occasional leisure, he just stayed at home and accompanied Lu Lu.The place where the important officials of the independent government of the eighth galaxy live has strict unified security, and there is no need to hire a private bodyguard team for the time being.

Thomas Yang answered quickly: "'Professor's Guard'? That's for show. The Central Committee of the Alliance will assign a group of people who don't know what they are doing to each general. What kind of bodyguard group, secretary group, Some people were followed by a dozen adjutants... After we left, the Admiral Li who took over the Silver Fortress was said to have eighteen adjutants alone."

"Isn't that right, the one with the family," Turan sneered, and licked the corner of his mouth, "The target of slaughter is particularly big."

A group of people shuddered collectively, only the captain of the Bayer guard who was silver ten showed envy and hatred in his eyes, and he is still brooding that Turan robbed him of his "business".

"Lord is the head of the personal guard in name, but in fact, he is only responsible for the public mailbox of the Silver Fortress. He occasionally sends a statement to the outside world, or goes back to Watto to run errands. These young soldiers have complicated backgrounds. Just step on mines, the commander doesn't like to use them." Poisson Yang said, "Thomas and I were ordered to follow Woolf to the Angel City Fortress and stayed the longest in the First Galaxy. As far as I know, Lord's personal guards After the Commander-in-Chief left the Silver Fortress, he took the initiative to ask for resignation and left, returned to Woto, served as a low-level officer in the Star Defense Army of the capital, and then withdrew to Angel City with the army."

"That's strange," Lin Jingheng said, "I don't like to use them. Ares Li didn't say that he didn't like to use them. Lord is an honorary graduate of Ulan College, the son of the current principal of Ulan College, and Li's sycophant Would you still give the young master small shoes to wear?"

After Lin Jingheng faked his death and left the alliance, the ten guards of silver left the alliance. The earthquake in the silver fortress made it difficult for General Ares Lee, who was acting as the agent of the silver fortress, to convince the crowd. As long as the central government of the alliance has brains, it will definitely promote people from the local garrison of the silver fortress. After a while, Admiral Li will be replaced. With the background and qualifications of the former Chief of Guards, Lord will undoubtedly be a popular candidate, and his future in the Silver Fortress is limitless.

Just resigning like this, and returning to Watto as an unknown security captain, doesn't look like a normal person's choice.

"At the beginning, Poisson and I both felt it was a pity when we heard the news. At that time, I also said that the head of the bodyguard's cult of personality has become obsessed, and I might plan to go back to Watto to register a 'General Pailin' religion'," Thomas said. Yang Zhengse came down and said quite meaningfully, "But who knows that five years later, fortune and misfortune will be unpredictable, the Silver Fortress will be attacked unexpectedly, and the entire First Galaxy will fall. Fortress of Angel City—this kind of luck...wouldn’t be blessed by our family’s commander, would it?”

As we all know, worshiping other religions, you may really be able to worship a god with a clear spirit.

General Lin, most likely can only worship three feet of blood spatter.

So Lord's personal guard, is it a miracle?Or is there someone behind it?

"Tell the Star Expedition to build a temporary communication platform over there," Lin Jingheng said, "I'll tell them."

The temporary communication platform is very simple, all it needs is a relay device that can communicate with both sides. Mint skillfully directed the artificial intelligence on several starships to complete the communication platform. The signal cannot be transmitted in real time, so Lin Jingheng did not rush to speak.

The moment his image appeared on the communication screen, Lord seemed to hold his breath, and his eyes became more complicated. After a long time, his throat trembled slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice: "General... Long time no see, can I pour you another drink?" A glass of rum without ice would do."

Lin Jingheng's eyebrows twitched, and at the same time, the Yang brothers also looked at each other.

Thomas Yang explained to Lu Bixing in a low voice: "The general doesn't drink rum without ice, you know the general, right?"

Lu Bixing: "..."

I really do not know this one.

In front of him, Lin Jingheng was a model of standard behavior for adults. He was clean, tidy and organized. Although he could not help smoking and drinking, he was very restrained. Not even beer.

It turns out that he was not born like this... Lu Bixing couldn't help shaking his head, and vaguely remembered that a long time ago, he had made up life goals for himself and Lin Jingheng, and one of them was to go to Wozhou together with him. Tuo - the place where Lin Jingheng grew up.

That day in the hotel room in Galaxy City, Lu Bixing said that he "can no longer give back the person he kind of likes" to him. Lin Jingheng seemed to realize something, and gradually stopped trying to remind them of the past How do you get along, and adapt to the new relationship every day.

The past six months have been peaceful and tacit, but for some reason, those things that seem to have passed away did not disappear because they were ignored. Recently, like weeds blown by the spring breeze, they quietly grew new shoots, teasing him from time to time.

"I didn't drink it when I was in the Silver Fortress." Posson Yang, who was in charge of the EQ of the third guard of Silver, immediately remedied the sentence next to him, "It's like this. When the commander has something that he doesn't want Lord to know, he will Sent him out to find ice cubes, and after a long time, he became 'no drink without ice' - this is not the point, the point is that Lord deliberately said the wrong thing, trying to imply something?"

Bayer shrugged: "It seems that Lord hasn't made much progress in all these years, and he can speak such low-level code words, just like a minor trapped in a cult organization."

The former head of the bodyguard who was "trapped in a cult organization" said to Lin Jingheng word by word: "Old Marshal Woolf is still in good health, and he has to go out for morning exercises every day. miss you."

If every sentence is ironic, what he means is that Woolf is dying, barely showing her face, and her freedom is restricted.

Lin Jingheng asked calmly: "Thank you for your concern. The old marshal is already old and has no relatives around him. Who will take care of him?"

Lord said, "Of course it's Secretary-General Wang Ailun."

Wang Ailun has served as the chief secretary of the Alliance Parliament, restricting Woolf's freedom.

Lin Jingheng lowered his eyes slightly: "The old man is over 320, isn't he retired yet?"

"The little things are almost ignored, and the main thing is to sign some important orders," Lord said in a word. "Now the situation in the alliance has just stabilized, and the central armies in various places have just entered their positions. Everyone can't do without him."

It means that the central armies in various places are suppressed by Woolf, the supreme commander. If they know that Woolf has existed in name only, the alliance may be in chaos.

Lord is now Duke's subordinate. If what he said is true, these words cannot be known to his colleagues and superiors, so they can only be conveyed in this cryptic way.

The wormhole dragged the conversation between the two sides for a very long time. After one party finished speaking, the other party had to wait for a long time before replying. A little cold sweat broke out in Lord's palm.
