This meal was also a feast for the host and guest. W, who had been controlled by Lie Hanqing for a long time to eat a green and healthy diet, enjoyed a high-calorie meal. As a teenager, a meal with a large piece of meat The patty burger is indeed more attractive than the cold bitter gourd.

After the bustling dinner, the others also went to their rooms, ready to wash up and then go to rest.

After all, today is a tiring day, and tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the World Expo, so it is right to recharge your batteries early.

Cromwell left Silber alone and took him to his own study in the manor.

There are not many books in Duke Huguo's study, only a few large maps, a sand table, and a few chairs.

He chose one at random and sat down, motioned to Silber not to be restrained, and then touched a pack of cigarettes from the table:

"Do you smoke?"

Silber shook his head: "It's true that I don't have this habit."

"It's fine if you don't smoke." Cromwell casually threw the expensive-looking cigarette aside, then took out a box of mints from his pocket, poured out a few of them and threw them into his mouth: "Cigarettes are not It's a good thing, my wife had quarreled with me many times because of this matter."

Silber had already discovered that Cromwell seemed to be a loner now, and he did not see any furniture or traces belonging to Mrs. Cromwell in the manor.

However, Cromwell didn't have any intention of extending this topic. He just briefly raised his mouth and then directly entered into another topic.

"I also heard that you worked in the project team of the natural disaster controller. Although it is said that the name is now changed to the weather controller, but the name has been changed, but there is no large-scale transfer of personnel in the project team.

"There just happened to be something I wanted to ask you about this—do you know a man named Fisher Williams?"

--------------

Chapter 120

"Fisher Williams?"

Silber quickly retrieved the name in his mind, and found the owner of the name in the pile of waste paper that was about to be forgotten.

When Silber was still studying at the Royal Academy of Guards, Fisher Williams was already a well-known Ph. achievements, and formally integrated all the contents of Originium Environmental Science, making it a complete and sustainable systematic discipline.

When Silber joined the project team of the natural disaster disperser, Fisher Williams had been the main person in charge of this project for three years, and he devoted all his enthusiasm and dedication to this project Among them, there is even a hint of obsession in it.

After Silber provided a distinctive core idea, Fisher-Williams immediately took a fancy to Silber's talent, and even invited him to be a guest, directly becoming the secondary leader of the project. people.

If Silber hadn't made up his mind to go, Fisher might have kept him in the project team.

After leaving the project team, Fisher also came to ask Silber's wishes many times, trying to bring him back to the team to conduct research together, until finally Silber left Londinium, he also failed .

But although Fisher was so enthusiastic, Silber didn't have much affection for the doctor.

After a long time, Silber was also able to look at Fisher Williams from a more objective perspective, and finally affirmed his original view of him.

This man in Silber's memory will always be a slovenly man. Although he is extremely active and persistent in his ideals, if he gets along with him for a while, he will find that Fisher has no human touch at all.

To be more precise, it should be said that it is impersonal.

He is like a humanoid machine, it only operates for the input instructions and goals, and everything else is out of his consideration.

From some rumors, it can also be heard that Fisher has almost no ability to take care of himself. If no one helps, he may wear a set of clothes for a year or two without changing. In terms of diet, he may simply eat energy Bars and supplementary sugar to maintain the most basic thinking skills.

This person puts everything on his persistent research, and his concern for Hilber is only because Hilber is helpful to this project, not because he is thirsty for talents.

Even Silber himself can be regarded as a workaholic, who can spend several days in the workshop just to forge a

parts, but even so he thinks he can't compare to this Fisher Williams.

Because the other party is already considered crazy.

"It is true that we have known each other, but the relationship is not very familiar." Silber nodded to the Lord Protector in front of him: "I met him several times in the project team of the weather control device, and discussed some There's not much handoff beyond that about things within the project."

"It's pretty much what I thought."

Cromwell chewed the hard candy in his mouth loudly: "Recently, he has become a big hit in Londinium, and there is an endless stream of people looking for him, even in the meeting I attended this time , there is a theme that is about him."

Silber nodded. If the weather control device is really completed, then it is normal to have such treatment.

Whether it is the significance of the project itself for people's livelihood, or the great breakthrough in the field of scientific research, or the fact that the Victorian government wants to buy horse bones with a lot of money, there is no doubt that this will instantly increase Fisher's status and reputation by a large amount.

"However, it must not be easy to deal with someone like him." Silber thought about Fisher's eccentric temper, and said with some amusement.

"Not only is it not easy, it's simply too difficult!" Cromwell knocked on the handle of the seat with some annoyance: "After greeting, ask if you have any intention to invest, and if you don't have any intention, just treat the other party as air." , Occasionally catch up with a few sentences and directly transfer to the scientific research project, and then start to explain the content of the project on its own.

"I really don't know how such a person would have a woman fall in love with him, and even want to have a child."

Silber was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the impact was too strong: "Is Fisher married?"

"The Civil Affairs Bureau has already registered his son's name, and his name is Loken Williams." Cromwell waved his hand, "Fortunately, he already has a family, otherwise I would to suffer."

"Why do you do that?" Silber was curious about Cromwell's words.

Cromwell folded his hands on his chest, biting the candy directly with his back molars: "Not long after you left Londinium, this guy came to me for three days in a row and said he wanted to visit Weir, anyone who knows You will understand that this guy is looking for you, if you don’t know it, you will think it’s interesting to my Weier, and when the wind comes, it will be the worst unlucky thing.”

The Londinians are not inferior to the Gauls in terms of love. It is conceivable that if this matter gets out, it will not be rumored to be some kind of mad scientist chasing a young female apprentice.

Just thinking about that scene, Silber felt a little nervous for no reason: "Will must have refused at that time?"

"Verna will go directly to the Northeast Front, and I haven't met him before." Cromwell snorted: "He still doesn't believe it, thinking that Ver is avoiding him, and he wants to force his way in directly. I took the whole person out.

"But after that, he did go to your former workshop and carefully collected the ashes in your forge. I don't know what he was thinking."

This passage made Silber downgrade his evaluation of Fisher from a mad scientist to a bewildered person. This kind of guy who can be regarded as a stalker really made him feel from the bottom of his heart. discomfort.

"Let me tell you something, it is also to remind you to be careful when you are playing in the Expo during this period, pay more attention to your dress, and be careful that that guy will recognize you directly."

Silber responded with concern: "Don't worry, I will definitely make a good disguise before entering the arena."

Seeing Silber's appearance, Cromwell also nodded, and then talked to him about some procedures for the opening of the World Expo, mainly to allow Silber to effectively avoid the activity area where Fisher might be.

After some explanations, the night was already dark. After saying goodnight to each other, the two prepared to go back to their bedrooms to rest and prepare to participate in tomorrow's World Expo.

But when the stairs on the second floor were about to part, Cromwell called out to Silber again.

Under Silber's suspicious eyes, Cromwell hesitated to speak, and finally hesitantly uttered a sentence:

"We must take good care of Will during this period. I think her mental state is not very good. I am afraid that she has suffered a little sequelae on the battlefield, and the people above are also worried about them during this period... You understand, there are some things If it didn't happen, then I wouldn't be able to say it."

"And the identity certificate I gave you, you can enter the place without a search."

When he said the last sentence, Cromwell's expression had become somewhat meaningful.

Silber was taken aback for a moment, and then he, who worked in a secret research institute, quickly understood the meaning of Cromwell's words. He let out a breath and said softly:

"Well, hopefully it doesn't play that role."

"It's natural."

Chapter 120 IX Opened Not Just the Curtain of a Drama

The power of industry is great. It can build tall buildings on the ground. In less than a year, a new urban area was added in Londinium to hold the World Expo.

And in this urban area, a glazed palace that is so huge that it occupies almost two-thirds of the urban area stands here.

In the middle, it turned into a bright galaxy of light.

When the workers proudly write their names on the bricks and tiles of the Crystal Palace, the main building of the World Expo, the magnificent building poured by the sweat of the workers will be given new life by history.

As the hero who reversed Victoria's predicament, under the claim of the Lionheart King, no one can touch this treasure-like building, not the nobles, the consortia, or the royal family.

Even as the chief designer of the Crystal Palace, his name can only be printed on the bricks and tiles with the names of those workers, regardless of high or low.

Because this is art, and art belongs to the people.

When the flowers bloomed in the streets and alleys of Londinium, and when the colorful fireworks were sent to the clear sky by the salute, this feast like a fairy tale kicked off.

There is no doubt that the World Expo is a display of comprehensive national strength, and Victoria just needs this stage to demonstrate its own strength.

Since the war with Gaul and the independence of Colombia, Victoria's international reputation has plummeted, and in the ten years after the Lionheart King succeeded to the throne, Victoria finally got out of the previous decline and became High-spirited towards a higher future.

So Victoria needs the World Expo to let the nations of Terra know that even though hardships and hardships still hang over this country, this ancient country has once again straightened its spine.

Soldiers in steam armor wearing bright silver armor formed a queue and walked mightily on the avenue in front of the Crystal Palace. The soldiers walking in the front were wearing the most antique steam armor. The old armor ushered in a glorious era for Victoria.

Afterwards, generations of steam armor continued to appear. Although they were not exhibits in the Crystal Palace, they also truly demonstrated Victoria's development path. The appearance of each generation of steam armor meant that Victoria's technological level had gone up. a step.

It is true that military strength cannot represent the comprehensive strength of a country, but military products can also show the level of technological progress of a country.

Silber and the others stood among the noisy crowd. In order to allow W to see the scene on the road, Silber also directly picked her up and put her on his shoulders.

"It seems that they have developed a new generation of steam armor."

He looked at the last row of brand new steam armor, and said with a little scrutiny.

Weir, who served in the Victorian Army, had no sense of secrecy about her mentor. She leaned into Silber's ear and whispered, "The research and development of steam armor has never stopped, but this generation of steam armor is still a semi-finished product." , is a model that can’t get out of the laboratory yet.”

Silber nodded. The iterative update of steam armor is not a trivial matter, but it is understandable for the Victorian government to forcibly remove these armors from the laboratory in order to show their strength.

After all, no matter what, as long as it has a complete appearance and can move freely, it can already cope with the current situation.

And after this steam armored soldier, there are Royal Army guards wearing red military uniforms and high bearskin hats. These guards, which are cursed by the troops of various countries as lobster soldiers, are also the guarantee of Victoria's strength. The Royal Army Guards, like the Gallic Guards, is the last barrier of Victoria.

However, for Silber, the opening ceremony, which was like a military parade, was not very interesting afterwards.

Because after that, it was completely Victoria's display of her own military strength.

Besides the steam armor at the very beginning, he didn't see any more new equipment, so naturally he couldn't arouse much interest.

After the military parade, the Victorian monarch, Richard the Lionheart, stepped onto the podium and used his passionate words to describe the significance of the Expo. He hoped that the Expo would demonstrate Victoria’s tolerance and openness to all countries, and hoped that The relationship between countries can also be like the theme of the World Expo, moving towards a better future together in peace.

At the moment when Gaul and Ursus are about to blow their brains out, Richard's words can be taken as nonsense-even if these two countries are not mentioned, Victoria alone is still talking to Casimir has frequent frictions.

"May every city in the world not be torn apart in the flames of war, may there be no grinning smiles from those who succeed in conspiracy, and may our homes and friends last forever!

"Here, I announce that Terra's first World Expo has officially begun!"

The salute was fired again, and in the magnificent song, countless cheers flew into the sky, and a feast destined to be recorded in history began.

Silber pushed the glasses on his face, and led his companions along the crowd to the entrance of the Crystal Palace.

At the security checkpoint, Silber first stood on the table and scanned it before taking out the identity certificate given to him by the Lord Protector.

Looking at this ID card, the staff members immediately smiled, and hastily opened the gate, saying that the companions behind Silber can also enter without the security check.

It is precisely because of this identity certificate that the staff did not notice that when Fang Zhou passed the security checkpoint, the weight data on the screen suddenly soared from zero to nearly [-] catties.

Although the Tactical Figures can be said to be slender, but just thinking about those metal bones and power furnaces, you can understand that they just don't look heavy.
