MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 40
The second floor of the city hall of Hercules, the capital of Mars
The chaos in the hall did not last long. After the security guards who maintained the order entered one after another from the security gates on all sides, the atmosphere of the transpiration gradually eased. However, most of the media personnel still pushed the guards away and put the microphone and recording device away. It was delivered to Liu Xi, hoping to ask even a few words from the mouth of the young president of the Republic of Seth. At this moment, they are no longer just working hard for reporting. They are attracted by a certain trait in Liu Xi, and it seems that they can no longer control their behavior and fall into some kind of stubbornness and madness.
This trait of Liu Xi, Shang Ping had already noticed the first time he saw the president on TV.
cult of personality.
Shang Ping raised his lips slightly mockingly. Looking at Liu Xi, who was surrounded by the crowd and couldn't move a bit, he always felt that people were too attractive, which was not a good thing. However, when he saw John in the crowd, Shang Ping couldn't smile.
Has this big brunette really lost his mind?
Well, even if he was reluctant, Shang Ping could only jump off the fence of the four-story stairs under Austin's icy gaze, strode to the edge of the crowd, and after confirming John Jonathan's position, Grabbing John's arm, he "pulled" John out of the crowd with all his might, resisting the thought of knocking the big man unconscious—obviously John didn't see the blue veins on Shang Ping's forehead, and continued to try to squeeze into the crowd, He hugged John's tall body and walked towards Austin, who was coming down the stairs.
Shang Ping's movements were a little too dazzling. Anyway, it was quite incredible that John, who was taller and stronger than him, could be hugged so easily.
Just like Liu Xi, who was surrounded by the crowd, originally standing in front of the podium, his field of vision was already higher than the heads of the crowd. When he saw the black-haired boy in a black school uniform jumping off the fourth-floor stairs, Liu Xi and He didn't care much, until the black-haired boy pulled another brunette boy in the same school uniform out of the crowd, hugged him, turned around and left, Liu Xi couldn't help being surprised.
Well, as a Saisman, he has never been in the army. Liu Xi admitted that he has never made an accurate assessment of the strength of the soldiers, but the black-haired boy is obviously not an adult, such a boy who is not strong , he was able to easily pick up many tall boys, and he looked like he was at ease, but the tall brown-haired boy was still struggling to stretch out his hand in his direction. The princess swept away by the dragon. After Liu Xi was surprised for a moment, he suddenly felt a little want to laugh.
Does this count as an unexpected gain from coming to Mars this time?
However, before the smile could appear on his face, Liu Xi saw the blond boy standing next to the black-haired boy, and recognized that the blond boy was the third son of David South, the commander-in-chief of the Mars Space Fleet, Austin South. As president of the Republic of Seth, he has a few things he must know. Even if he often pretends not to know. Just as he knew the family of Mars Chief Marshal Martin and the Commander-in-Chief of the Space Fleet David South, maybe the other party knew him as well, but they all needed to pretend to be ignorant of all this. This is a superficial effort that must be done as a person in power in a country.
To be a qualified politician, one must first become an actor. When you can act in front of your family, you are halfway there.
This is what Liu Xi's grandfather taught Liu Xi, and it is also a proverb that Liu's family has passed down from generation to generation and has existed since the age of the earth.
Shang Ping walked out of the hall with John and Austin. David South's adjutant Joe was waiting for them in front. He was obviously surprised to see John being held in Shang Ping's arms. Looking at Austin hesitantly, isn't this black-haired boy Austin's sweetheart? So what's going on now?
Austin didn't ignore Joe's strange look, but he didn't want to explain it now. He already felt no need to be jealous of John Jonathan, who was held in Shang Ping's arms. It's totally pointless to be angry with this big guy. He was simply a fool who was overwhelmed by inexplicable emotions.
Adjutant Joe suppressed the doubts in his heart, looked at the time, and directly asked the three Austins if they needed to stay for lunch before returning to Madoff Military Academy.
"If possible, the commander-in-chief will be very happy."
Adjutant Joe said with a smile, while Austin looked disapproving. It is estimated that Father is happy that he can share more trivial data analysis for him, right?
At this moment, an elegant voice sounded behind several people.
"Do I have the honor to have lunch with you all?"
Hearing this voice, Shang Ping turned around and took John, who was still in his arms, and saw the smiling man standing in front of him. Shang Ping's first reaction was to look at Austin. John Jonathan was stunned and speechless.
Liu Xi smiled gracefully, not at all embarrassed because he was surrounded by the crowd just now. Austin did not speak, but the adjutant Joe had already corrected his expression, and used the decent manners and words of the qualified adjutant of the Mars Space Fleet Commander to replace the three of Austin and declined Liu Xi's invitation.
"That's a pity."
Liu Xi didn't see any displeasure, his handsome face could be described as beautiful, his black eyes had a gentle glow, the sharpness he had just given in the speech was gone, and he was a little more cordial.
He was not as good as Shang Ping expected. He only said a social rhetoric because of the relationship of the Soth family. Instead, he nodded slightly with Austin and Adjutant Qiao, stood in front of Shang Ping, and stroked his white fingers in the air. It seemed that he wanted to touch Shang Ping's black hair, but he didn't seem to be.
After Liu Xi retracted his finger, Shang Ping felt that what he had just thought was a bit ridiculous.
"Hopefully, next time, we can have a chance to share a meal."
Leaving this sentence seems meaningless, but it seems to have a profound meaning, Liu Xi turned around and left. The three Austins complied with Adjutant Joe's suggestion and stayed at City Hall for lunch. Sadly, David South got stuck in the meeting and didn't show up.
After lunch, Austin, Shang Ping, and John came out of the city hall and boarded the land car. John was still immersed in the beautiful atmosphere of the realization of his dream, which made Shang Ping feel very unrealistic, and he was very reluctant to admit himself. This close friend actually has the pink eroticism of a young girl.
Austin sat silently opposite Shang Ping, with his intellectual brain on his lap, and he didn't type a word for a long time.
