Demolition Earth

Chapter 23 Gradually Begin
"Is this my farewell to the past?" Lan Tian said into the headset when he left the coffee shop and got in the car.

"It can only be regarded as a beginning, and there will definitely be many similar farewells in the future."

Lan Tian touched the key subconsciously in the car, and found that just now, he had left the key to his ex-wife. Strictly speaking, the car was no longer his own, so he had no choice but to get out of the car at the risk of getting out of the car. Light rain shuttled under the eaves of the shopping malls on the street.

"I never asked you why you need me to do this before," Lan Tian said, "I think you will give me an explanation."

"Ha, I overestimated you," the voice laughed, "I thought you didn't need an explanation."

"Whether I need it or not is one thing, but whether you give it to me or not is another matter entirely."

"Oh, showing the normal respect between us?"

"Not only that, I think giving me a little more information will definitely be beneficial to my future work."

While talking, Lan Tian walked into a hot pot restaurant on the side of the street. Just when he was about to sit down, he suddenly remembered that he had left the house 10 minutes ago, and now he seemed to be penniless.He touched his whole body and found two bills, one for 50 yuan and the other for 10 yuan, which was obviously not enough for the consumption here.

"Please invite me."

"Have you forgotten, I reminded you that I can't have any financial contact with you now. I asked you to keep some money for yourself, but you must be chic."

"It's like this now, and I feel sorry for her. By the way, you can find someone to lend me some money."

"Isn't it easier for you to find it yourself?"

"Didn't you say, let me bid farewell to the old way of life," Lan Tian took out his mobile phone, and said, "Look, the new mobile phone card has no contacts, and the farewell is absolutely complete."

"Okay... I'll help you find it."

The waiter brought the menu, and Lan Tian looked at the amount on the menu, feeling a little dazed for a while.He couldn't remember how long it was before he paid attention to the price when eating, let alone being unable to afford it.

"You're really lucky. In this way, you stand up, walk forward, turn right, see table 32."

Lan Tian stood up and took a look. There were two strangers sitting on the table, a man and a woman. They seemed to be a couple. They should have just ordered and were waiting for the food. The woman also wore the same mask on her head. Experimental headphones.She also saw herself, nodded to herself, and then took out her wallet, which seemed to be ready to lend him money.The man turned his head to look at Lan Tian, ​​and there was obviously subconscious hostility in his eyes.He looked at his girlfriend, who just said, "A friend."

Lan Tian took the money, sat back, ordered some casually, and asked the waiter to serve.

At this time, the woman came over and invited him, "Let's eat together, it will be more lively if there are more people."

Lan Tian glanced at his boyfriend, who obviously didn't welcome him in his eyes: "It's not convenient."

"It's okay." The woman said, she turned her head and gave his boyfriend a look, and his eyes immediately became kind.

In fact, Lan Tian doesn't want to eat alone in his current mood. There is another reason. This is the first time he has come into contact with other experimenters in reality, which makes him feel like he has found his kind, not just himself. go Ape.

Asked the waiter to add a few more dishes, and after the beer was served, the woman started to chat, her voice was nice, and when she was talking, his boyfriend kept staring at him with vigilant eyes, but Lan Tian felt that this The eyes were a little familiar, which reminded him of his ex-wife.For a long time before, she also stared at herself and the earphone on her head with this kind of eyes.

"I heard you were rich before?"

Lan Tian drank half a glass of wine, smiled, and seemed to want to show a little kindness to the man: "What did he say?"

"Yes," the woman also smiled, "He said that you will pay me back several meals in the future."

"Haha, then you have to be careful," Lan Tian said, "he often deceives people."

"But I am very happy every time I am cheated by him." The woman couldn't help laughing again.

"Wait," the girl's boyfriend felt a little uncomfortable, "Did you guys know each other before?"

"I don't know each other," Lan Tian explained, "This is the first time we met."

Men definitely don't believe it, whoever believes it is SB.He looked at Lan Tian suspiciously, saw the earphones Lan Tian was wearing on his head, and suddenly asked, "Have you guys chatted online before?"

Lan Tian shook his head: "No."

"Aren't you a little boy?"

"Little boy?" Lan Tian saw the familiar jealousy and suspicion on the man's face, and guessed it from the expression on the woman's face, "You mean, this voice in the earphone? I'm not."

Seeing that the man still didn't believe it, Lan Tian handed him his earphones: "You can ask your girlfriend to say something, and you'll know after listening to it."

The man hesitated, but took it anyway.It can be seen that he should have studied this headset for a long time, put it on very skillfully, turned on the volume switch to the maximum, and then asked his girlfriend to talk.

The woman gave him a blank look: "Parana."

heard nothing.The man returned the earphones to Lan Tian, ​​still unwilling: "Then who is he?"

Lan Tian and the woman looked at each other tacitly, smiled, but did not answer.

When he came out after eating, Lan Tian smiled at the bustling street: "It seems that with you, at least I won't starve to death in the future. Tell me, how many people do you know on this street?"

"If you just know... a lot, but they don't necessarily know me."

"That's how many people know you."

"I can't say yet."

Lan Tian smiled self-deprecatingly: "You still don't trust me?"

It replied, "No, I'm not trusted yet."

……

France, Paris.

Mr. President had to postpone the evening diplomatic reception, because just 20 minutes ago, the Inter-Ministerial Intelligence Committee invited him to a temporary meeting.

When he received the call, Mr. President pulled his tie subconsciously.

Not many people attended the meeting, the configuration was the same as last time, two directors of the Seventh Bureau and DSF (National Territory Guardianship Bureau), the director of the President's Office, the directors of several operations divisions, and one or two front-line operators ; Then there is the video conference on the German side, which is also configured in the same way, the prime minister, the prime minister's staff, the Federal Intelligence Service, the Federal Constitutional Protection Agency...the expressions on their faces are much more relaxed than those of the French people. Needless to say, things are certain It was on my side again.

Troublesome guys, the president felt that he was getting used to it by pressing his temples.

"Are you ready?" After sitting down, he began to urge several staff members who were preparing the projector, not because he was impatient, but because he didn't like the expression on the minister's face, "Hurry up and start."

The intelligence chief first reported the general situation - they found a high school student suspect in Louis Legrand Middle School.The president noticed that when the Minister of Intelligence said the word suspect, he crossed his tone quickly and deliberately, as if he was afraid that his voice would be too loud and he would step on something.

From the details of the report that follows, the president can probably understand the minister's entanglement.

The "suspect" came from a good family background. One of his parents was an engineer and the other was a company executive. He had a high level of education and a high income.He himself performed well in school, but apart from his introverted personality, he seemed to have nothing special to attract attention, let alone being targeted, and was specifically listed as "the most noteworthy kb activity suspect in the country recently" and reported to the president.

If one had to forcibly find out some reasons for him, it would be the "important suspects" in the intelligence minister's report - bad relationship with classmates, recent lovelorn, father is a big food immigrant.

If these three reasons can constitute a person being paid special attention by the heads of state of the two countries, then it is definitely not enough for a country to have only one head of state.

Sure enough, at the end of the report, the minister euphemistically mentioned that the analysis of this person's suspicion was provided by the "VIP"—in fact, this was the real and only reason.

The VIP has reached some basic cooperation with many countries. As for how far it has gone, the presidents of other countries may not know much about it, but there are no secrets between Germany and the country.At the beginning of establishing contact with VIPs, France and Germany established a joint intelligence team, and all intelligence and resources were shared.Originally, they also hoped to bring in the Yin people, but the Yin people seemed to have their own ideas.Similarly, countries such as China, Mi, and Russia are also the same. There are only some basic civilian information exchanges between Germany, France and them-but everyone knows that there will definitely be a lot of private cooperation, but what exactly is it depends on each country. Obviously they all have their own plans.

As far as Mr. President himself knows, it seems that Americans want everything, but they mainly want to get aliens’ interstellar navigation technology first; Indians pay more attention to aliens’ medical technology; Russians are more straightforward. They prefer weapons; Chinese people are obviously more willing to believe that these "foreigners" must have some unusual purposes. They may want to develop VIPs into their own people... As for Germany and France, I am a little ashamed. They are currently the most realistic towards "VIPs" It is also the most urgent idea, and it seems to be used to solve those "contradictions" in the country.

And the past three weeks have shown that the idea appears to be becoming viable.

"So? Can you give him the permission you mentioned last time?"

"What about you? Do you have any suggestions?" Mr. President glanced at several officials under him, and saw that they all lowered their heads deeply.

However, one of them stood up. His face looked a little depressed, and he said slowly in a helpless tone: "I believe that the distinguished guest may... no, it will definitely solve the problem temporarily. But again, we will never know, Is he creating more new problems for us. The speed at which the VIP understands the Earthlings is astonishing, three weeks ago he couldn't even speak to us in French, and now..."

He shook his head, paused and continued: "I have a hunch that once we have the first time, we will become more and more dependent on him... In the end, all of us will be controlled by him."

"Give it to him, as long as it is something on the computer, give him everything you want, camera, tape recorder, surveillance records... Give your intelligence agents a good long vacation, hehe..." The chief of the president's office sneered, " Didn't they always want to go on strike like the police, from now on, they can take a good rest for a while."
