Stellaris: Earth Alliance

Chapter 275 Prediction and Truth

Rockefey's estate involves all aspects of Portman.

The first is the insurance business, which has been hit hardest by pirates. If England investigates in this direction, it will be easy to find that the Rockfield family has controlled more than 50% of the entire Portman business.

Logically speaking, this is actually nothing to England.

But it is inevitable that Rockfield is from the Kingdom of France, which will inevitably arouse the fear of England.

Portman has such a huge capital force underground, and it is not controlled by the English, but the French who have a feud with the English.

No matter how you look at it, it's impossible to just let this matter go.

A good colony cannot be a wedding dress for the Kingdom of France.

"So now I want to avoid attracting the attention of the British side..."

Rockefy suddenly understood what Barreka meant.

Barreka said indifferently: "If you want to prevent England from discovering our existence, you can only use another bigger thing to attract the attention of the English Empire. And this thing is the Washington Space Station."

The death of 500 billion people is exchanged for a chance for the Rockefey family to continue to hide under the water.

Rockefeller, who always claimed to be indifferent, couldn't help but tremble when he heard the other party's thoughts.

Luo Fei looked at the opponent up and down. Barreka's whole body was made of pure machinery, without any flesh and blood, including the brain.

As the saying goes, people's hearts are made of flesh, but looking at the other person's appearance, it is obvious that there is no way to use this sentence to measure it.

Is it true that after becoming a robot, the ability to empathize will also decline?
But Rockefy then thought again, didn't they have any psychological burden when they chose to attack the space station of the human unity, causing the deaths of tens of billions of people?

Applied here, it can only prove that Barreca has no sense of belonging to Portman as a whole.

So where does he belong?You know, he is already hostile to England.

Rockefy suddenly found that he couldn't see through the other party.

But it's possible that he's just overthinking it.

After all, from a rational point of view, it is obviously a "cost-effective" to sacrifice 500 billion yuan in exchange for the Rockefey family to continue to hide under the water.

"What are you going to do with Ives? I heard that this guy is still tinkering with the animal transformation gene project that the former president started."

Barreca asked instead.

Rockefy thought for a while and said: "The other party's brain is not very good. It seems that he has no other ideas except killing the man named Qin Xu. Don't worry about him."

"This may not be the case. In order to kill Qin Xu, he also killed Portman's president. If he continues to let him go, a large number of important people on Portman's side may have died before he started. "

"Maybe the reason why England sent people to investigate this time has something to do with him. Anyway, we can't let him continue to be so lawless."

"So what do you mean? We're going to arrest him?"

When he said this, Rockefy could only smile bitterly.

"Help him kill Qin Xu, and he will leave here naturally."

Regarding Barreca's words, Rockefy was silent for a while, "But, is this matter really that simple? He came here to cause so many big things, just to kill one person?"

"Who knows, idealists will always do inexplicable things. You have lived for tens of millions of years, so you don't even know this, right?"

Barreca finally convinced Rockefy.

"But as I said before, now is the critical time for the British to investigate. It is not appropriate for the Rockfield family to come forward. I will leave this matter to you." Barreca's identity is that the British are stationed on the Portman. The spy chief is responsible for almost all intelligence gathering and reporting work.

Thanks to this level of status, Barreca would treat any news that could arouse England's vigilance coldly.

It's just that recently, more and more ordinary immigrants have been stationed in Portman from England. Some of these people are intelligence collectors from England and are independent of Barreka.

This proves that the higher-ups vaguely doubt the authenticity of the information he provided.

"Don't worry, the resources I can mobilize are enough to help Avis get rid of Qin Xu."

On the other side, on the land of humanity, as a large number of pirates swarmed into Portman's country, mankind ushered in a short-term economic prosperity.

Some merchant ships started a new round of trade, and soon more and more people followed suit, and the endless queue of merchant ships opened again.

At this time, there is still one month before the reconstruction of the Toronto Space Station is completed.

During this period, Field dispatched numerous warships and personnel to support the human unity, among which Andre performed most prominently.

Under his bravery, a large number of pirates were hanged and the hijacked people were brought out safely, earning him the respect of many humans.

"Are all the diplomats you are responsible for in Field as fierce as you?"

Liu Wenhan was also one of the first people to awaken to psychic powers. As there were fewer and fewer galaxies to explore, Liu Wenhan became more and more skilled in controlling psychic powers, and he has transformed from a scientific researcher to a combatant.

During the most intense period of pirate rampage in the human unity, I fought alongside Andre for a long time.

After fighting together back to back for so long, it can be considered a lifelong friendship.

"Haha, it's okay. I'm the only one in Fieldry."

Speaking, Andre suddenly asked.

"Speaking of which, why haven't you seen Qin Xu for a long time?"

Andre naturally knew that Qin Xu went to Portman, so he just asked casually.

When this topic was brought up, Liu Wenhan's face looked a little strange, but he quickly realized it.

"He went to Portman with a group of other people... As for what he went to do, I don't know anymore. Anyway, he has always been mysterious."

"Always?"

"Yes, the most exaggerated time. Have you ever seen two bullets intersecting in the air? I have seen it, and it happened right in front of me."

"Qin Xu shot off the flying bullet with just one shot and saved a scientific researcher on our side. From that moment on, my world view collapsed."

The relationship between the two has become very good under Andre's deliberate guidance.

Once the topic opened, Liu Wenhan didn't hide anything and naturally told all his opinions about Qin Xu and what they had experienced together.

Naturally, this also includes what happened to his daughter Liu Shaomei.

Nowadays, it is no secret that Qin Xu can predict the future to a certain extent.

At that time, Qin Xu undoubtedly knew about Liu Shaomei's death, but he did not save her.

Liu Wenhan always thought this unconsciously, although he also knew that Qin Xu would obviously choose to save Chen Xiaomeng first, and then consider saving others.

But after he learned about this, some grudges inevitably appeared in the relationship between the two parties.
