MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 12
December 20, 1127, Galactic Calendar
Just when the Republic of Seth fell into a sudden chaos caused by a political game, Shang Ping, the eighth-hundred and sixty-third student of the Madoff Military Academy, once again rejected Austin Soth, and this time, he had already Declined three dinner invitations and two movie invitations in a row.
Shang Ping sits on the grass with one hand on his chin, with a yellow-crowned tree unique to the planet Mars behind him. The winter sun lazily shines on him through the gaps in the leaves. In this sultry afternoon, he does not. I have to worry about the rumors that are rampant in the academy. Regarding Austin South, the iceberg beauty recognized by the Madoff Military Academy suddenly fell in love and madly pursued the rumors of a small student at the same time, and its popularity has faintly overwhelmed the terrifying trend of political events in the Republic of Seth. Shang Ping was very distressed, he pulled out a grass and bit it in his mouth, well, he was more concerned about the description of him in the rumors than the statement that Austin South was in love. He was not as tall as John, and he was taller than Austin. Soth was half a head shorter, but he also reached the standard height of a fourteen-year-old teenager on Mars Planet, right? Why do you say he is small? !
"Are you angry about this?"
John, who was lying on the grass beside Shang Ping, opened his eyes in surprise, folded his hands behind his head, and his brown eyes clearly reflected Shang Ping's slightly annoyed face.
"Yeah, can't it?"
"My God!" John sat up and put one hand on his raised knee. "You think in such a special way."
Although John disliked Austin Soth very much, it could even be said to be disgusted, it was the first time he had this kind of emotion towards a specific person, but he had to admit that Austin Soth was proud, but his character and will were different. Like an alloy that cannot be shaken, once this iceberg beauty has made up her mind, it is difficult to predict whether Shang Ping will be able to refuse to the end.
John didn't think that Austin really fell in love with Shang Ping. The two had no intersection at all before, and Austin didn't look at Shang Ping at all like a young man who was in love, but things went on like this. It's hard to guarantee that Austin's underlying stubbornness and persistence won't be aroused.
"Shang Ping, you should probably agree to Austin's next invitation." John suggested to Shang Ping with a rare serious look: "Obviously that woman won't let you go easily, then you might as well talk to him carefully, if I really want to be friends with you, so why not agree? It won't hurt you much."
"John, I'm surprised you said that. I thought you hated him."
"Yeah, I hate him. But so what?" John scratched his head, lay down again, put one hand behind his head, raised one hand high, and looked at the blue sky through his five fingers, "Shang Ping, yes At times, you have to learn to compromise within a certain limit, especially when faced with a force stronger than yourself. This is the first lesson we learned in Madoff College. Don't forget that the woman's face is from the Soth family. And he is the most favored youngest son. To be his friend, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. As for me, will you throw away my friend because of Austin? Obviously impossible."
Shang Ping was stunned for a moment, looked at John, and felt that this best friend suddenly became unfamiliar in an instant. Is this still John Jonathan, who was heartless and full of one-man fighter jets and laser guns?
The bell at the end of the break interrupted Shang Ping's thoughts. John jumped up from the ground, pulled Shang Ping up, and said to Shang Ping in high spirits: "The next session is a fighter simulation practice class! The college has just replaced a new batch of new students. In the practice warehouse, it is said that the simulated flight speed is twice as fast as the previous batch, and the range of the laser cannon has also been greatly improved, hurry up, I can't wait!"
Looking at the high-spirited John Jonathan, Shang Ping chuckled lightly, pressing down the doubts he had just had in his heart. The boy in front of him is his friend. No matter what is hidden under the surface, John is Shang Ping's friend. He was, is, and will be in the future!
"Shang Ping?"
"John, I love you so much!"
With a bang, John's face turned into a ripe tomato. Looking at Shang Ping, his mouth opened and closed several times, but he didn't say a word.
Shang Ping didn't care, grabbed John's arm, and ran forward with a big laugh.
It's just that Shang Ping didn't realize that from the very beginning, there was a gaze that had been following his figure. Those emerald green eyes suddenly set off a wave after hearing Shang Ping's words to John that he liked you. Wei Lan.
Like it?
Austin South stood at the window on the second floor, the breeze blew through his golden hair, and a beautiful smile gradually appeared on his white face. So, is this feeling called liking?
"Austin, what are you doing? Break time is over, you should go to class."
Austin turned around slowly and nodded slightly in greeting, "Sorry, professor, I just suddenly figured out a question, and the answer to the question is very satisfying to me."
When the words fell, the slender and straight boy gracefully complied with the standard student salute. Holding the window frame with one hand, he jumped down from the second floor, landed on the grass, and walked towards the practice warehouse.
The professor, who was over fifty years old, stood there, still a little absent-minded. At that moment, he actually felt a hint of warmth from this icy boy, as if the ice was melting.
Touching his beard, it seems that a certain rumor in the academy is not without basis...
The capital of the Republic of Seth on December 30, 1127, Galactic Calendar
The demonstrations initiated and led by parliamentarians have been going on for nearly a month. In this short month, although the interim President Shesha racked his brains and tried his best, the political chaos in the Republic of Seth was still impossible. ease. Including members of parliament, citizens, and a small number of government officials and civil servants joined the parade. They held the banner of freedom and democracy and shouted loudly. Marshal Helu of the military department sent some space fleet marines to maintain it. order, but the order in the capital was still in chaos, and there were even riots in some areas. Although Marshal Helu ordered the army not to shoot, but under the planning of someone with a heart, the tragedy happened.
Just at 14:36 in the afternoon on December 30, a radical MP was wounded by a laser gun. Former Speaker of the House of Lords Jeffrey and Speaker of the House of Commons Derry immediately seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to The congressman's injury was exaggerated as a repression of the people by the government and the military, completely disregarding the fact that the congressman had previously shot and wounded an unsuspecting marine who was only in self-defense.
The media swarmed all over, and almost all stood on the side of the parade. Although a small number of voices questioned the cause of the congressman's injury, they were completely drowned out by the voice of the public.
In the presidential office on the 18th floor of the Heart of the Water City, Xie Sha sat in a huge black leather chair, her eyes were sunken, her hair was messy, her lips were wrinkled with dry skin, and she was no longer in high spirits when the parliament was dissolved. At this moment, Xie Sha , like an old man who was on the verge of death, with a tall body crouching in a square inch, the huge screen in the office kept scrolling the sound of the media, with the parade screen, which made Xie Sha almost on the verge of collapse.
He stood up abruptly, swept away all the documents on the table, panting heavily, Xie Sha didn't understand, why the people would stand on his opposite side? ! He is all for this country, this government! Could those parliamentarians and politicians who only talk rhetorically and waste tax revenue push him to this point with just one mouth? ! No, he doesn't believe it!
Xie Sha picked up the phone and connected to Marshal Helu's office, but only heard a mechanical female voice saying: "Marshal Helu is now holding a military meeting, so it is not convenient to answer."
Damn military meeting! He has made thirty consecutive calls, and every time the answer is the same!
Xie Sha sat down slumped and looked out the window with a dull gaze. Could it be that he was really wrong?
Space Fleet Commander's Office
Marshal Helu looked at the young man sitting across from him. This young man with black hair and dark eyes, always with a gentle smile, was sitting leisurely on the sofa, sipping coffee, but his eyes behind the lenses were like blades Generally sharp.
"Then," Liu Xi slowly turned the coffee coaster and looked at Marshal Helu, "Dear Marshal, what are your thoughts? Do you agree to accept my suggestion?"
Marshal Helu looked at Liu Xi deeply, and his angular face clearly showed disbelief, "Your conditions are very attractive, including rebuilding the Fourth Fleet and providing more support for the military. However," Helu The marshal paused, "Don't you hear these voices outside the window? Did this mess end so easily? Do you think Geoffrey and Derry could let go so easily? They are dirty and cunning. Politicians, they're not going to let this mess come to an easy end unless there is enough benefit."
"Don't worry about that." Liu Xi crossed his legs and supported his side cheek with one hand. "As long as Xie Sha steps down and promises to reorganize the cabinet and reopen the parliament, they will have no more excuses. Moreover, most people are concerned about It's just the so-called 'democracy and freedom'. The loyalty to these two Speakers is not as high as they imagined. What's more, it is necessary for the Parliament to exist, but the Speaker is not unshakable, is it? Heru? Marshal, I remember that several of your heartfelt subordinates also participated in this parliamentary procession, and I believe they are fully capable of replacing Jeffrey and Derry in their current positions."
Marshal Helu had to admit that he was moved by Liu Xi's words. How attractive are the conditions for taking the parliament into his own hands and gaining more government support for the military? If Liu Xi can really do what he said, then Marshal Helu believes that he is fully capable of leading the Space Fleet of the Republic of Seth to develop more colonized planets, instead of always falling behind in the footsteps of the Mars Space Fleet !
His ability is not inferior to David Soth, but when people in the Muse galaxy mention the commander of the space fleet, the first thing that comes to mind is always the man of the Soth family, not his Heru!
Liu Xi was not in a hurry, he just quietly watched Marshal Helu clench his fists and frown deeply, as if he was restraining some kind of excitement. The moment he looked at Marshal Helu, Liu Xi revealed Satisfied smile.
The hands of the two men came together, announcing the end of one and the beginning of the other.
Just when Liu Xi and Marshal Helu reached some kind of agreement in private, a black fleet was silently approaching the Muse galaxy. The radar of the Kanon military fortress first intercepted the news of this fleet, and then the Royce celestial body. I also got the whereabouts of the uninvited guest, but I didn't want to see an unbelievable face on the monitor room screen of the two celestial bodies at the same time. The people in the Kanon military fortress looked at each other. They were not familiar with this face, but the monitor of the Royce artificial celestial body exclaimed. that man.
Captain Elfy in the Fourth Fleet of the Republic of Seth? !
