Chapter 57
After Ji Yu left, Mu Li didn't have the heart to stay here any longer, so she called a spaceship and returned to Ji's house.
It was time for lunch, the housekeeper had seen Mu Li and Ji Yu going out together in the morning, and asked puzzled, "Miss Mu, why did you come back alone?" After speaking, he looked towards the door.
Mu Li rubbed her brows, and said helplessly, "Ji Yu is on a mission." The
housekeeper tentatively said, "Ah, this one who celebrates Chinese New Year has gone out again."
Mu Li was puzzled and said, "Again? Going out?"
"In the past, during Chinese New Year, Miss was alone, and she would stay in the military headquarters even if she had no mission, anyway, it would only add to the sadness when she returned home. I just didn't expect to have you this year, but I actually had a mission."
Mu Li worked hard She raised the corners of her mouth, looked towards the sky and said, "It's okay, she will be back soon. Uncle Wang, help me prepare something to eat, and bring it to my room."
After the butler answered, Mu Li went Back in the room, the school hadn't started yet, and Mu Li had nowhere to go, so she didn't go out. Bringing the brands of clothes that Ji Yu often bought from the butler, Mu Li chose the clothes.
I thought that shopping would pass the time and enrich myself, but every time I picked out a dress, Mu Li couldn't control the worries and longings in her heart when she thought of Ji Yu's appearance. The empire and the federation have not invaded the river for many years, and they are independent on both sides of the Zerg. Even in the last battle where Ji Yu killed the Zerg Queen and nearly collapsed her mental power, the Federation never thought of asking the Empire for help. After all, the Federation and the Empire are far apart. Even the warships of the military department cannot reach the opponent's territory with a one-time space jump. They must pass through the territory of the Zerg. And this time the empire asked for help, which shows that the attack of the Zerg will definitely not be a small matter. However, Ji Yu had already killed the Zerg Queen. According to the Zerg's reproduction law, a new generation of Zerg Queen should not appear so soon.
After all, the Zerg Queen died at the hands of Ji Yu's father last time, but Ji Yu's father and those who faced the Zerg Queen in that battle also paid a huge price for this, dedicating their lives for the Federation and peace.
The news of the military supporting the empire this time was blocked. Maybe it wasn't because the Federation was invaded, so they tried their best to conceal the news from the outside world so as not to cause panic. But Mu Li, as an insider, couldn't ignore it.
Mu Li suddenly felt that even if he was a military student, what if he won the Mecha League and got the chance to enter the military headquarters early? She is still not an official member of the military department, and under the current circumstances, she can only be excluded.
Bored, Mu Li scrolled through the shopping page, picking and choosing, and she ordered a few dresses that she thought were suitable for both Ji Yu and her. Mu Li could already imagine how rich the expression would be on Ji Yu's face when she saw these clothes stuffed into her closet when she came back.
Ji Yu will definitely find various reasons to refuse, but in the end she will put it on just to make her happy. Thinking about it, Mu Li walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows. Mu Li's room was located near the garden, and she could just see the spring scenery of the garden through the window.
The garden decoration Ji Yu arranged for her last night has not been removed, balloons and colorful ribbons can be seen everywhere. And that acre of rose field, under the light, looks more red like a flame, full of vitality. There was nothing to do in the house, and Mu Li was planning to go out to the garden for a stroll, when the personal terminal that was left on the bedside rang just right before Mu Li left. After Mu Li clicked on it, she took the personal terminal and walked outside. The faces of Bai Jingli and Zhao Yuqi appeared together in the virtual projection. Mu Li looked down and saw that it was a group chat. Bai Jingli saw that Mu Li was wearing a dress that was quite different from her usual outfit, and said in surprise: "Mu Li, you really came back safely. Are you injured?" After all, Mu Li was trying to help the two of them out of danger, so she made herself deeply When they are in a dangerous situation, they have to take care of them both emotionally and rationally. Zhao Yuqi interrupted: "Why are you talking, as if you don't want Mu Li to come back." After speaking, he looked at Mu Li gossipingly: "The marshal brought you back?"
Mu Li said calmly: "Yes, the mecha was destroyed after I entered the black hole. Just when Ji Yu came, she took me out."
Mu Li called Ji Yu's name casually, while implying that Ji Yu entered the black hole for her. The black hole, Zhao Yuqi had to believe now, it turned out that the most sought-after Alpha in their military department really had an owner, and now the most outstanding Omega also had an owner. For a moment, I don't know whether to be happy that they have found their belonging, or to be sad that I am still single.
"Just come out, just come out. Mu Li, are you at Ji's house now?" Zhao Yuqi asked suspiciously.
Mu Li nodded in confusion and said, "However, how do you know this is Ji's house? I remember that even if you were attending a banquet, you wouldn't come to this area, right?
" It is customary to inform your family that you are going to Mu's house, but I think it might be more appropriate to come to the Marshal?"
Zhao Yuqi joked: "Yeah, I didn't expect to find such a big secret. I will send you tasks in the future. I have to consider the marshal's feelings."
"Thank you, but you don't need to be special to me, I discussed it with Ji Yu." Mu Li asked, "You are looking for me to see if I have returned safely?"
" No." Zhao Yuqi continued, "Before the marshal went to you, let us pay attention to those three scientists so that they would not be taken away, so I wanted to ask, what should we do next?"
Mu Li frowned. Mei, Ji Yu is not in the federation now, so she can't make a decision.
Seeing Mu Li's embarrassment, Bai Jingli tentatively said: "Mu Li, can you tell the marshal for us? After all, those three people have bad consciences, and they don't know when things will happen again."
Mu Li said sullenly: " Ji Yu went on a mission, she's not at home."
"What? The marshal left so soon?" Bai Jingli said in surprise, after all, seeing Mu Li's appearance, she had just returned to Capital Star, and she didn't expect Ji Yu to leave so soon .
Zhao Yuqi tentatively said: "Actually, I saw that some departments of the military department were mobilizing troops very early this morning. Did you go to the front line again?"
Mu Li nodded, but did not reveal any more information.
The three of them were silent for a while, then Zhao Yuqi suggested: "Mu Li, would you like to go and see the three scientists with us, maybe we can get something out of them? It can be regarded as lightening the workload for the Marshal." Mu
Li Li's heart was moved when she heard it, she was bored in Ji's house alone, there were traces of Ji Yu's life everywhere, she would think of Ji Yu from time to time. Going to the military department happens to be able to find something serious to do, so why not do it?
"Are you two at the military headquarters now? I'll go find you right away." Mu Li asked.
"We just left." Zhao Yuqi added, "But we have to go there, why don't you see me in my office?"
"Okay, see you in half an hour." Mu Li looked at the rose field in the garden, turned around and returned to the room to change Clothes, go to the military headquarters.
Half an hour later, Zhao Yuqi's office.
When Mu Li arrived, Bai Jingli and Zhao Yuqi happened to arrive one step ahead, and they were in a hurry, obviously they had just rushed over.
Mu Li waited for Zhao Yuqi to open the door, and asked in confusion, "Where have you been ?
"
Mu Li also became interested, and after following the two into the office, he followed closely: "What documents do you two need to deliver?"
"I don't know very well. It was sent from the empire, and the two of us just went to help."
Mu Li nodded, took the teacup and asked, "Is there no one in the military department now? Why are you all asked to be errands?"
Zhao Yuqi Reluctantly said: "I have done this kind of thing a lot. The special operations team is often sent to do this kind of secret thing. After all, the space jump cannot be completed at one time. If someone responds, even if you encounter the Zerg, you can send the information back smoothly. "
Can't use communication?"
Bai Jingli looked at Mu Li like a fool: "Now I believe that you are really a first-year student. Not to mention that human signals will be blocked by the Zerg and cannot be transmitted. Even if it can be transmitted, do you dare to send it? "
Muli used to rely on manpower to convey information in the world, and when he came here, he thought that communication was omnipotent, so he hesitated: "Why can't it be sent?"
Bai Jingli looked at Muli helplessly, and said: "The marshal should really teach To teach you about espionage work, do you know that although the Zerg race is bugs, they also have advanced civilizations, and they can also decipher human languages and various encrypted information?"
Mu Li was stunned: "The bugs have You're so powerful."
"Otherwise, who did you think was the one who drove the battleship to fight against you?" Bai Jingli finally found out that as soon as Ji Yu left, Mu Li lost her mind, and even her IQ dropped sharply.
In the future, the military should really issue a rule that those who join the army must be single, otherwise it will be a waste of time! But when he thought that it was their marshal who took the lead in love and envied others, he thought about this rule.
"Oh yes, the insects of the Zerg race are indeed different from the ordinary insects here." Mu Li murmured.
"Okay, you should explain to Mu Li, anyway, you are a few years older than her, isn't it normal that she lacks theoretical knowledge?" Zhao Yuqi couldn't stand it, so he opened his mouth to smooth things over.
"Senior Zhao, Major General Zhao, I remember that you were three years older than me. When I first joined the Mecha Club, you disliked me as if I were mentally handicapped. Do you still remember?" Bai Jingli smiled Looking at Zhao Yuqi.
Zhao Yuqi touched his nose and looked away. As long as he didn't speak, it would be as if this had never happened.
"Senior, I can't tell that you were also bullied back then." Mu Li couldn't help teasing Bai Jingli, after all, in her impression, Bai Jingli had already grown into a mature and stable Alpha.
"Who doesn't have a dark history?"
Mu Li took a few steps to the window, watching the birds walking together and the grass and trees cuddling together, somehow, Mu Li couldn't help but think of Ji Yu again.
It would be great if I could get to know Ji Yu earlier, before Ji Yu entered the military. But when Ji Yu was fifteen, how old was the original body? Seven or eight years old? Hiss, it seems that knowing it is useless. With Ji Yu's temperament back then, when facing a child, she might leave without even looking at it, right?
"Then have you forwarded the documents?" Mu Li asked, "Ji Yu is still in the federal territory?"
"Already submitted." Bai Jingli replied, "It was not an order from the marshal, this time the documents were handed over to the parliament. "
"Parliament? What does the military newspaper have to do with the parliament?" Mu Li was surprised. Although she knew that the parliament and the military department were the right-hand men of the federal government, after all, because of Ji Yu, she entered the military department. It is very strange, and it will surprise you if you mention it by chance.
Zhao Yuqi thought for a few seconds, and said, "It's not important to tell you this. Anyway, you already know that the Zerg and the Empire are at war now."
"Yes."
"The Empire asked the Federation for help through the Congress. But the marshal is not in the military headquarters, and the military department has no direct host, and the council cannot intervene except for the deployment of troops, and other things can still be decided."
"I see." Mu Li walked to the sofa, facing the two of them Sit down, "Why doesn't the empire directly ask for help from the military? According to the federal government, doesn't the military have independent power to deploy troops? Wouldn't it be more convenient to ask for help directly from the military?" Zhao Yuqi hesitated, but let go "I've heard about this too. After all, I was still young at that time. After entering the military department, based on some information, I had some basis for deduction." Seeing Zhao Yuqi's mysterious, Bai Jingli couldn't bear it. Zhu Zhu asked: "What's the matter, tell me quickly, don't tantalize people." "The last time the Zerg queen was killed by the marshal, you should all know that?" Mu Li nodded: "Yes, and last time The Zerg Queen, is it the battle where Ji Yu's family died?"
Seeing Mu Li's initiative, Zhao Yuqi snapped his fingers and said, "That's right. At that time, the equipment and weapons of humans were far inferior to those of Zerg. That battle was very difficult, and it also severely damaged the vitality of the Federation, especially the army. The Federation did ask the Empire for help, but..."
"But the Empire didn't help." Mu Li affirmed.
"Yes, so after this incident, the empire didn't dare to go directly to the military headquarters, so it could only rely on the parliament to deal with it."
"But even so, after receiving the notice, Ji Yu didn't hesitate and went Immediately rushed to the front line." Mu Li sneered, "Actually, even if they go directly to the military headquarters, Ji Yu will not refuse, they are all human beings, Ji Yu is not that cruel."
"Yes, when the time comes, we will win the battle , maybe it is the federal parliament that the empire is grateful for, this is really..."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go and see those three scientists." Mu Li suggested.
"Okay, come with me." Zhao Yuqi led the way.
"Did the three of them say anything after they came back?"
"No, they have been quite silent all the time, and they are also very cooperative in life."
Due to their special identities, the three scientists did not enter the usual detention center, but were detained in the military headquarters Inside a tower where important prisoners are held.
The rooms in the tower are all made of special metal glass. Although it looks like a glass room, but due to the special metal material sandwiched in it, it is actually difficult for even laser artillery to penetrate the wall at one time. The room is also convenient for the guards to monitor them.
When the three of them walked outside the tower, the entire tower was located in a remote corner of the military headquarters, and there were no green plants beside it, standing there alone. It can't be said to be lonely, because there are many soldiers patrolling the outside of the building, and it is conceivable how many people are guarding the inside of the tower.
When Mu Li approached, she felt something moving, and suddenly squinted her eyes to look at the top of the tower. The top of the tower is different from other towers, this is a sentry tower, the top of the tower is flat, and the spaceship can be parked. Mu Li pointed to the spaceship that was parked above and was about to take off and asked Zhao Yuqi, "That doesn't seem to be the spaceship of the military department." Zhao Yuqi turned around, followed Mu Li's line of sight, and said, "Maybe there are some prisoners who are about to be transported. Go to other places. People are taken away and new people are brought here every day, don't worry, let's go in." Seeing what Zhao Yuqi said, Mu Li nodded and followed the footsteps of the two people in front. The checks along the way were very strict. Zhao Yuqi's major general ID and Mu Li Bai Jingli's student ID were shown out countless times, and they had to be checked routinely every time they passed a checkpoint. And the laser guns and knives they carried with them were removed as early as the first inspection when they entered the tower. But this is also to prevent accidents, and the three of them cooperated with each other to accept the inspection. After entering the tower, the expressions of several people became more serious. None of the three spoke, the tower was already quiet, and even the sound of walking would appear abrupt. Since the prisoners were all important prisoners who had not been tried, all of them were imprisoned inside with grim faces. Being monitored in all directions for a long time makes them more irritable. Since each room was silenced, when they passed by, they could only see the exaggerated screams of the people inside. Some prisoners who look good in physique are restrained by some equipment. As long as a neck ring is used, they can stay in the prison peacefully and cannot move. After all, Zhao Yuqi and Bai Jingli stayed here intermittently for a few days, and the familiar ones brought Mu Li to the cell where the three scientists were imprisoned. Due to the importance of those three people, they were not ordinary criminals, so they were locked in the encrypted room, and they needed to enter their fingerprints to enter the room. After Zhao Yuqi opened the door, he made a gesture of invitation to Mu Li, and Mu Li didn't refuse, and walked in first. The layout inside and outside the house is no different, it is also a transparent prison cell. There was no one there! And the teacups on the table were still steaming, which showed that it wasn't long before the three of them left.
As soon as Mu Li walked in, she turned around and almost collided with the two people behind her. With a serious expression, she looked at Zhao Yuqi and confirmed, "Is it here? Where is the person?"
Zhao Yuqi was puzzled and said, "Inside..." However Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yuqi also saw the empty transparent cell, and his eyes widened.
Zhao Yuqi immediately rushed to the password door and asked the soldiers guarding outside: "Where are the three people inside? Why are they gone? Didn't you tell me that you don't need to be interrogated and you can keep them in custody?" The
soldier reported: "Report to the major general, After you left, some people from the parliament took the transfer order, saying that with the consent of the military department, the three people were to be taken away for interrogation. We checked the documents and found that there was no problem, so we asked them to take them away."
"Oops ." It's gone." Mu Li immediately looked at the soldier, and quickly asked: "They came to pick him up, did they leave just now?" The
soldier nodded, not understanding why their reaction was so violent, and asked: "Major General, Is something wrong? Do you need our help?"
Zhao Yuqi waved his hand: "You can do as usual, let's check the situation first, maybe we missed some order."
After speaking, he looked at Mu Li and Bai Jingli With a glance, the three walked away in a tacit understanding. Zhao Yuqi asked the two people behind as he walked, "So the spaceship we saw just before we came in, maybe it was the spaceship that the people from the parliament took away from the three scientists?"
Mu Li nodded: "It should be. They first Find a way to send the two of you away. In order to cater to the current situation, let you go to the Zerg to receive information from the empire, which will not arouse your suspicion. Then, taking advantage of this time, forged documents and took away the three A scientist."
Bai Jingli was puzzled: "Then where did their documents come from?"
Mu Li guessed: "Now that Ji Yu is not in the federal territory, if the parliament really wants to get someone's signature from the military department or It's a seal, so it's not difficult. It's just..." The
three quickly walked out of the guard tower and rushed towards the fastest stop. Zhao Yuqi asked, "Just what?"
Mu Li paused and stopped: "Do you still remember the experimental subjects of those three people? The council should deliberately take advantage of Ji Yu's departure before daring to snatch them away.
" Haven't you succeeded yet? Isn't there enough creatures that died on that barren star, do they still want to continue?"
Mu Li suddenly had a serious expression: "What is the most abundant resource on the capital star?"
Zhao Yuqi guessed: "Money? Power?"
Bai Jingli asked: "Building? Or education? The capital star doesn't seem to have any mineral resources."
Mu Li shook his head: "Neither. The richest resource in the capital star is people. If the council really If we want to fully develop that reagent, considering the personality of the three scientists who wanted to experiment with us before, experiments on living people are the only way to successfully develop the drug.”
“Yes, but this is Capital Star, It is the most legal and safest place in the federal territory." Bai Jingli retorted.
Mu Li frowned: "I'm just guessing, these politicians also have family members here, so it shouldn't be the case. It's just..."
"Mu Li, if you have something to say, just say it, don't just talk like this every time Don't worry about your size, we are on your side, so you don't have to worry about it." Bai Jingli urged.
"It's just that if this was really done by the council, it was to pay off Ji Yu so that they could complete their plan and go to the military headquarters to take away the three of them. The way to pay off Ji Yu, at present, is to send Ji Yu Get out. So do you think it is true or not that Ji Yu went to the empire to support it? What if all of this is a trap?"
"You mean, the empire and the Zerg didn't fight at all?"
"I It’s also a guess that it’s the best outcome if the empire and the Zerg don’t fight. But I’m afraid that Ji Yu will be attacked before and after.
You also said just now that Ji Yu has a bad relationship with the empire, but the empire has always had many contacts with the parliament. What if the empire also set up this bureau together with the federal parliament to obtain that potion?
Ji Yu originally went to the black hole to save me, but no one has ever come out of the black hole, so they really don't need to worry, and the military department really didn't receive any news from the parliament and the empire.
But the next morning when Ji Yu and I came back, Ji Yu received the order and went to the empire.
Do you think these are really accidental? "
