"Yes." Griffin also nodded. "Take care, we still have time to meet again."

The next day, the diplomatic team left Germany by plane.On reaching France, Margaret knocked on Griffin's door.

She came to say goodbye.

In fact, the second princess had already received news from the royal family asking to return, but it was rare to come out to play. Margaret didn't plan to go back so soon. The time spent with Griffin made her quite happy.Originally, she wanted to pretend that she didn't know how to stay longer, but Elizabeth, who was far away in Britain, had already seen through her sister's tricks and ordered her to return home immediately.

At the same time, Griffin's visit to Europe is coming to an end, and the team is on the way back home.There was really no excuse, which forced her to give up her plan to stay.France is the last stop for them to say goodbye, unless she wants to follow them to the United States.

Margaret is playful, but she will not run so far and ignore her family.

"I think you've almost recovered. I believe you can adjust your emotions even without me." Griffin finally felt relieved after making a final diagnosis on the second princess. "Shall I celebrate your healthy discharge from the hospital?"

Margaret's performance was indeed just a symptom of "poisoning" under certain circumstances. After spending time together day and night, the feelings that she had never forgotten were not so serious.

She's pretty sure he's okay.

The princess laughed, her pretty face pretending to be serious. "Don't be too happy too early, this can only be counted as the interval of treatment. Maybe soon after you leave, I will never forget you again?"

At that time, will you come all the way to see a doctor for me, or will I go to live in your new home in the United States for a while?

This is too exaggerated, who wants to get sick from time to time?

Griffin is not very sure, is this an alternative confession from Margaret?This woman's aesthetics has always been unique, maybe she just expresses her favor to herself in this way?

"I don't seem to have such a great charm."

"You underestimate yourself too. It may not be that important to others, but to me, the feeling you give me is quite amazing. I have never felt such comfort and ease in others." Said Ma Gretel hugged Griffin.I don't know whether it was intentional or not, she said in a narrow tone: "Take care, the girl who gave me a wonderful feeling. Since I met you, I found that I am no longer interested in ordinary men. Haha. Unless I can see To a man who is more attractive to me than you, but I think that should be unlikely. So whether I have 'cured' or not, you are still the most special one in my heart."

Griffin suddenly felt his scalp go numb, and a thin layer of sweat leaked from his back.

Your words are too ambiguous, it will make my wife jealous.If you don't want to be covered by the rockets she fired, you should make it clear before leaving.

But the instigator enjoyed the provocative pleasure and winked mischievously at Griffin. Margaret left the room neatly, leaving the girl with the big head in a mess.

People have to leave problems when they run away. They really deserve to be British.

Volume 168: [-] The MacArthur Report

For the Truman administration, the trip to Europe was both business and political. Although the original idea was to unite Western European countries against the Soviet Union, the final result unexpectedly eased the tense atmosphere between the two sides.The energy core of Europe was placed in Berlin, which is close to the east. This move has greatly stabilized the threat from the east. Now the US government is eager to cash in on its own core, for fear that it will be caught by the Soviet Union a second later. This short gap finds an opportunity to be one step ahead.

Compared with Europe, which is the most important thing, there is nothing worthy of attention in Asia. Truman has to be given a reason to let her go, which is to inspect the new vassal of Japan.

The United States intends to turn this land into an overseas military base similar to that of the Philippines. This is a trophy of the United States, and they can dress it up as they want.

Shortly after the end of the war, MacArthur, the supreme commander of the Allied Forces stationed in Japan, simply put forward five major reform orders for Japan because he disliked the Japanese government’s procrastination in handling affairs, including the dismantling of landlord land ownership under economic reform.In the plan, many restrictions were placed on the original landlord class, which indirectly allowed many landless farmers to obtain farmland, and alleviated the deformed social status quo in Japan.

But to transform Japan, land redistribution alone is not enough. It must be known that agriculture is only the foundation of a country, and industry and commerce are the pillars of the economy.

The land reform introduced by MacArthur was favored by Japanese farmers. The men were grateful for their own land, and the women also had a certain right to speak because of the democratization reform. They were even willing to have children for him, who had never obtained such power.The old bureaucrats who benefited from the land reform continued to hold the power of the country. Except for the small landowners who lost their land and became nothing, all Japanese thought of MacArthur from the bottom of their hearts.

As an ambitious man, MacArthur was not satisfied with this. The transformation of Japan was just a small test, and he wanted to gain more.

At this time, the titular ruler of Japan heard about the actions of the guardian of the Rubik's Cube in Europe. When he learned that there was such a thing as an energy core in this world, a bold plan began to emerge in his mind.

If I can build Japan into an Asian country that meets Western standards, and use the successful example of transforming Japan to apply to other Asian countries, it is not impossible to enter the political arena with the huge prestige gained in the reform.

A five-star general who doesn't want to be the leader of the United States is not a good emperor. Of course, he can't be exempt from being overjoyed like MacArthur.

I have already won the love of the Japanese people, why can't I go further?People always have the pursuit of making progress. Even Eisenhower, a bald head, can turn from the military to the government. Why can't I?

MacArthur knew very well that in order to quickly achieve this goal, he had to rely on unlimited energy.

Yes, he has to get on good terms with the Stark Group and the Guardians of the Cube.Although the two sides had some small frictions before, MacArthur confidently believed that this small conflict was not enough to affect anything.Also from the beginning of 1947, when the Rubik's Cube was touring Europe, the corncob pipe-smoking man rarely calmed down and wrote a long report to President Truman, expounding his views on Japan's democratization reform.

"Judging from the current progress of the reconstruction of Japan by the United States, we have only completed the initial stage of the five major transformation projects, and only let the people understand the underlying meaning of Western-style democracy. Although I confronted Hirohito several times and forced him to issue a human declaration, The image of the emperor as a god among the Japanese people is deliberately downplayed, but many Japanese people still believe in him as the incarnation of a god and respect him very much."

"It is absurd and ridiculous that Japan in the middle of the twentieth century still maintained such feudal and ignorant customs. It is hard to imagine that such a country that is still a remnant of the feudal period has left us with indelible scars. This It makes me more convinced that when dealing with the Japanese, we should use harsher methods to rule them. If we cannot eliminate their dangerous thoughts and crazy behavior from the root, perhaps after half a century, militarism will revive from them again. .”

"Most of the time, what this country shows is still a deformed social ecology, and if you want to build Japan into a comprehensive trading partner and military ally that fully conforms to the interests of the United States, you must continue to attack and eliminate Japanese nationals. In addition to ignorant and ignorant spiritual beliefs, we should also provide more economic, political, and military technical support to this country. Let them understand that we have brought them much more than they had before, so that they can be completely transformed thoughts, which in turn become our defining people.”

"This is one of the reasons why I am so eager to invite the guardians of the Rubik's Cube to visit Japan. This is not only necessary to rebuild Japan, but also to deal with possible military actions by the Soviet Union in the Far East. We should not only In order to contain the infiltration of the Soviet Union, we should also block its expansion to the east. Infinite energy and its infrastructure equipment allow us to build a defense line in the Far East in a short time."

"It should be noted that Alaska of the United States is on the other side of the Bering Strait. In order to prevent the mainland from being invaded and to protect a free world, we should not only build radar stations and air bases in Alaska, but also focus on the four islands of Japan to disperse The military strength of the Soviet Union. In the future, as a large overseas base to prevent the Soviet Union from expanding to Asia, Japan should also establish a fully Westernized freedom barrier. But in order to prevent them from regaining military power, the United States should continue to increase the number of troops stationed. Here will Be our first line of defense against the red camp."

Griffin never dreamed that with MacArthur's long report sent to the White House, the opportunity to go to Asia was right in front of him.

At this time, she didn't know whether she should change her usual view of the man in khaki high-waisted pants.

Facts once again prove that there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.In terms of attitude towards Japan, it is rare for the five-star emperor to reach a consensus with her.

Leaving aside his follies in the 50s, Griffin thinks he's not incapable of looking people in the eye.

Leaving aside the fanatic rhetoric about the threat of communism in the second half of the report, this report has indeed carefully studied the future plans made by Japan's current national conditions.Japan could have rid itself of militarism along this path, but unfortunately a war interrupted it.

Volume 169: [-] Birthday Presents Cashed in

Griffin dare not say that her trip will definitely prevent the outbreak of war, but she must strike hard when dealing with Japan's demilitarization.And in order to avoid the United States and the Soviet Union, who think they have a lot of advantages and want to F2A, provoke a dispute on the peninsula, she must also go to China G.

Didn't that bald man Obadiay dream of becoming an arms dealer?I will fulfill him by myself.

To "slander" Howard himself and drive him to Asia is not just as simple as exile, and it is better to plan for a rainy day than to cram for a while.

Since it was the suzerain's mission to the vassals, there was no need to send a deputy secretary of state like Acheson to travel.Ai Qi, who made great contributions to the early investigation of the Michelle project (mainly obtained an unexpected energy core during the visit, although this was Griffin's voluntary behavior, Truman still put the credit on him) As soon as he returned to the United States, he threw himself into his new job.Griffin himself chose to go to Japan after consulting her.

It is worth mentioning that shortly after she arrived on the East Coast, she heard from the Strategic Science Corps about several disappearances of scientists.Judging from the investigation results obtained at the scene, the missing persons are all scientists from various industries that the US government claimed to have spent a lot of money to hire from Japan.

It has been almost ten days since the incident, and there are still no dead or alive.For a time, Director Dooley raised her overall protection level.

Because these Japanese were formed to study the energy core, they are somewhat related to infinite energy, and it is reasonable to increase the protection of Griffin.At this time, no one is sure whether the kidnapper will attack her next step. The FBI and CIA also sent their respective agents to wait and see, hoping to catch the daring lunatic who sabotaged the rise of the United States.

However, after squatting for more than a month, no suspicious targets approached her. In addition, Griffin went to the Pentagon under strict protection and handed over the agreed energy core. In addition, the respective bosses above shifted the direction of investigation. Finn's protection work was canceled in batches.

"Have you found anything?" Griffin asked with concern after returning from the Pentagon.

When she learned that the victims of the kidnapping were all familiar Japanese, she understood that Schneider had played a role during her absence in the United States.

That man usually looks aloof and arrogant, but he didn't expect him to be unexpectedly reliable at critical moments.

"No." Carter shook his head.After the honeymoon, she and Steve devoted themselves to work, but all the good mood was consumed by these disappearance cases.Fortunately, this case has now been transferred to another department, and they have replaced the headache. "At present, the kidnapping by Soviet agents is only ruled out. The follow-up investigation will be handed over to the FBI."

Since it was not a case planned by the hostile camp, there was no need to use the Strategic Science Corps to take action.

"It's just that so many people with sensitive identities are missing, it's hard not to think that you are the next target."

Griffin said, "I hope it's me, so he'll never come back."

Now she has Carter on her left, another Steve, and Nick behind her. Surrounded by a group of agents, each of them is an old acquaintance with their own unique skills. Such a luxurious lineup, even the security forces of the President of the United States can't match her. .

And with the lesson of failure that was seen through last time, her face has made great progress this time. She is also a super soldier strengthened by serum, and she can already prevent Steve from seeing the clues.

In fact, the other party did not see anything, which made the girl greatly relieved.

"Don't mention this. Today is your birthday, so don't talk about these horrible things." Back in the love nest with Steve, Carter took a sip of water, and then took out a gift from the ring Box. "This is a local specialty that Steve and I brought to you when we went on our honeymoon in the Caribbean. It's quite exotic."

What caught the eye was a string of local aboriginal bracelets, woven with thick rope and the husks of dark fruits.

Griffin simply put it on his right wrist, and thanked: "It's very exotic, this is a good birthday present, I like it very much, thank you."

Then her gaze turned to Steve on the other side.

Say yes, Zhenjin, hand it over quickly.

"I don't have such artistic gifts here..." Under the gaze of the girl, Steve, who didn't get it, took his own gift from the side coffee table - a well-maintained M1911 pistol.In order to match her identity, the wooden handle was deliberately replaced with white.

It is indeed a very novel and unique gift for a girl to give her a pistol on her birthday.It's a pity that there is no Gun Girl in this plane.An unexpected but reasonable relief appeared on Griffin's face.

"Well, I thought you'd send me a vibranium."

You said earlier that you wanted Zhenjin, of course you said earlier that I would not give it to you.What surprises and expectations are there for the gift of knowing the answer earlier.

Steve shook his head, smiled indifferently at the girl's intentional difficulty, and said, "I thought I wasn't interested in that thing."

Your Uncle Howard has a lot of them, so there's no need to come here to ask for them.

"Well, I'm just talking casually." Seeing that Carter had no objection, Griffin picked up the M1911 in the box and looked at it carefully.

As far as workmanship is concerned, this is indeed not new from the factory.The scratches on the parts can prove that Captain America is holding it to break through one Hydra position after another, leading his comrades to victory after victory.

But...you gave the pistol that symbolized the elimination of Nazi Hydra to me who once had the same brand...it always feels weird.

What the hell, I'm not a member of Nac Hydra right now.

"Thank you, I like it very much." After watching it for a while, Griffin put it in the holster and put it in his backpack.

"It is as common as many of the same models, just like human beings, we are all one of them. The reason I give it to you is that I hope you can continue to look at problems from the perspective of human beings."

From Steve's point of view, Griffin's current performance is quite good. Although there are slight deviations in some things, overall it is impeccably excellent.Regarding the matter of taking out the energy core, while Steve agreed, he also felt a little apprehensive.

He believes that the idea of ​​any invention is always pure at the beginning of its birth, but as time goes by, the end will always be far from the original purpose.

If it weren't for the fact that the energy core can only last for 50 years... No, such a time limit is not too restrictive for human beings, maybe it should be shortened?But since Griffin set it up like this, there should be her own intentions, right?

Volume 170: [-] Hello, Comrade Monroe

A hardcore gift from a hardcore man, even the meaning is so blunt.

But she had no reason to refuse.

Griffin joked to Carter: "Fortunately, I didn't think of using superpowers to disassemble it into parts and watch it one by one."

She almost did it just now.

The reason is that watching a complete thing being disassembled into parts out of thin air, this feeling is very cool and has the feeling of future technology.

"You can go back and do it again," Carter laughed. "He can't see it anyway."

At this time, Howard came in from the door with a bag of ingredients in his arms. Seeing the harmonious atmosphere inside, he couldn't help asking. "Am I missing something?"

Griffin directly stretched out his right hand to the other party as if begging for candy, with a wicked smile on his face. "Uncle, I want Zhenjin."

"Cough cough."

Howard was shocked by the girl's greed.Just kidding, do you think it's a snack?Such a precious treasure is too late for legion research, so far I only have the amount for one vault, so there is no extra!

And your coquettish gesture of shaking while talking is simply a foul!

In order to prevent himself from slipping his tongue and agreeing, he pretended to be calm and put down his things, and preached: "You are such a prodigal, uncle, I will be angry."

Tch, cheapskate.I won't tell you how many good things you have stored in the vault, but it doesn't mean I don't know.

Howard wanted to say something, but a loud voice soon came from behind.

"Howard, you are really narrow-minded, to refuse a girl's request so cruelly."

Kennedy also walked in with two bags of ingredients in his arms.He raised his eyebrows at Captain America and his wife, and said to Griffin, "Happy birthday, big star." Without giving the four people in the room a chance to speak, he turned his head and said something outside the door. "Come in, my sweetheart, and let everyone know you."

With the crisp sound of high heels touching the ground, another young blonde girl appeared in the room.

To be precise, she is a big sister who is a few years older than Griffin.As soon as he appeared on the stage, the stunning appearance and dress attracted everyone's attention.

Even Griffin himself has to admit that there is such an eye-catching woman in this world.

Looking around the room, those beautiful blue eyes focused on Griffin, and a charming smile soon appeared on the woman's face.

"This is Griffin Zeppelin, right? Nice to meet you." She stepped forward to chat with her in a generous manner. "Jane Adele, you may call me Jane, or Dill."

Putting down the food bag, Kennedy clapped his hands and applauded three times for the acquaintance of the two, as if he had done a great deed.

He even asked for credit: "Is it a surprise, is it a surprise?"

"It's quite unexpected." Seeing another historical celebrity standing in front of her so vividly, the girl felt a lot of emotions for a while.She never expected that she would meet this contemporary beauty in such a way and occasion. "Nice to meet you."

Comrade Monroe.

Regardless of whether she is a supporter of the red belief or a practitioner of the red belief herself, this woman is willing to treat different races equally and deserves Griffin to be her friend.

Kennedy patted Howard on the shoulder affectionately, and said under the disgusted eyes of the other party: "I knew you would become good friends."

"Your performance in Central Park really impressed me." Adele took the girl's hand and talked.

She wasn't there that day, but unexpectedly, this became the biggest regret.Afterwards, the TV station also cut this section separately and replayed it countless times. The auditory shock brought by the audio equipment that has been adjusted by infinite technology can only be felt most truly on the spot.

It is no exaggeration to say that she listened tremblingly.

"It was just a whim, and I wanted to give our captain a special celebration." At this time, Griffin also recovered from seeing another historical figure. Compared with before, she had a significant understanding of this aspect. resistance.She took the initiative to take the bait and said, "Compared to you, Sister Mary, I'm more like a fledgling novice."

Adele smiled and said, "I also have things that I'm not good at." Then she revealed the topic, and quickly continued: "But the acting style like your sister is still unique before this. We can do it when we have time. Would you like to have an in-depth discussion on this matter?"

She can't refuse the absolute dominance on the stage, the dreamlike temptation of light and shadow.

At this time, Griffin also understood why Kennedy brought him here.
