The last booth looked the most serious. The person in charge of Light Core built a temporary building directly. Various equipment was placed in a fully enclosed glass cabinet with touch-type holographic projection explanations. It looked like the other two who were beating gongs and drums. Organizations are very different. The face-saving elitists of Optical Core obviously don’t want to ruin their own brand. Even if they create something to trick the audience, they still make it look like a scientific research conference. The publicity lineup even invites Aurus and Kreya. The ace combination gave the devil enough face.
Gongsun Ce breathed a sigh of relief: "Look at it, look at it, I'll say this is right!"
"Does this equipment have anything to do with you?" Gongsun was still doubtful.
"It's very relevant. Mr. Gongsun has helped us a lot with our research." Kreya came over to greet everyone and introduced the equipment in the exhibition with a smile, "Please take a look at this stopwatch-type instrument. It is a portable individual radar completed by the laboratory through reverse analysis of Mr. Gongsun’s capabilities. It has performed well in many battles this year..."
Orus made a gesture, and a gray metal watch on the counter beeped twice, projecting a map and personnel distribution inside the campus with a faint blue light. Gongsun's mother was greatly surprised: "His telekinesis can also be used as radar? Military industry?"
"Practical applications are naturally far more narrow than just investigation. Psychokinesis also has great potential in medical treatment. This device is a suspended walking prosthesis specially designed for people with walking disabilities..."
"This is an industrial exoskeleton made with reference to telekinetic assistance..."
Kreya introduced the high-tech facilities in the cabinet one by one, and Gongsun's parents were amazed. Gongsun Ce was completely relieved and whispered to Aurus: "Ed is very efficient. Can you fool these things in two or three days?"
"They are all genuine. Ed already has a research task on each of the most dangerous dragon species. Just pick a few finished products from the inventory." Orus said.
Gongsun Cepi smiled but said: "Have you really studied me?"
"Isn't it strange? That is the direct power of the Eternal King, the most valuable research material in the world. Unfortunately, without your cooperation, Ed can only make these small devices no matter how hard he works, which is better than nothing."
Aurus spoke calmly. He didn't wear that fancy dress today but wore a three-piece suit. From a distance, he looked like a young, talented and successful man. This man's superpowers came back without any warning after the battle in Meteor City. It seemed that a certain painter returned the things after using them up, and his annoying elitist temperament was on the rise again, making Gongsun Ce took a few steps away from him in disgust.
"Go, go, stay away from me, I look upset."
"Thank you for asking my organization for help and still showing such a face." Orus didn't take it seriously. "There's no need to be nervous. I still have to host my school's activities. I'll leave as soon as I'm done...Miss Kreya, Have we brought our best trial yet?”
"The debugging is good, but..." Kreya hesitated.
"It doesn't matter. It's an excellent example to show Mr. Gongsun's contribution to the academic world." Orus smiled, "Please look this way!"
Among the exhibits was a conspicuous rectangular cabinet, which the mysterious organizer had covered with a piece of silk, making it difficult to see what was inside. Aurus walked forward quickly and picked up a corner of the silk, acting like a magician about to reveal a secret on the stage.
"Compared with this product that is about to be unveiled, many of the previous instruments are equivalent to appetizers at a banquet. Please allow me to solemnly introduce Mr. Gongsun's highest contribution to the official Cangdu." Aurus lifted the silk and said, "The giant Dragon Annihilation Cannon!”
At first glance, the exhibit in the glass cabinet looks like a large black pliers. Its upper side is in the shape of a three-dimensional acute angle, and its lower side is a straight strip. Energy-storage light grooves are evenly distributed inside the barrel, and as they are "charged" The prompt of "can hit" is constantly filled with bloody light. The overall shape of the annihilation cannon is very murderous, and you can tell at just one glance that it is an out-and-out murder weapon. This thing is even more familiar to Gongsun Ce... because it is basically the self-developed Seal of Misfortune!
Gongsun Ce almost stared out of his eyes. Before he could say anything, Gongsun's father turned his head and looked aggressively: "A Ce! You also said that you were not involved in the previous Hezhong incident!"
"No, Dad, you misunderstood that this thing is different from what you imagined... Orus, you mother, shut up and stop talking!"
Aulus pretended not to hear at all, and spoke in a measured tone: "This annihilation cannon made outstanding contributions in the recent Obsidian Dragon attack battle, and was highly praised by Mr. Gaius, Vice President of the United States..."
"It's just a joke among friends, don't take it seriously!" Gongsun Ce hurriedly grabbed his parents, but Gongsun's mother glared at him and stood still: "Hey, young man, please tell me carefully, what is the specific effect of this cannon? "
Father Gongsun has a more long-term view: "Is this energy-producing? Is it expected to become standard equipment?"
However, the brown-haired young man who was still far away disappeared in the blink of an eye. Teacher Aidar came over with a smile and explained: "I'm sorry that Researcher Orus used superpower to leave in a hurry... I will continue for him. Explanation session!”
Gongsun and his wife looked at their son with suspicion. Gongsun Ce was still standing in the same place, with the same indifferent expression, and he was playing with a small gray snake in his hand.
·
At the same moment, on the rooftop of the building, Gongsun Ce grabbed Aulus by the collar and smashed him against the wall. The latter raised his hand innocently: "I helped you out of kindness and this is how you repay me?"
"Fuck you for asking me to help?!"
"I mentioned your greatest contribution to the official side to provide a breakthrough for you to confess later." Orus said.
Gongsun Ce roared: "Face your mother! I asked you to help hide it from them!"
Aurus looked at him like a giant gray ostrich.
"We won't cover complex factors such as strength and status, but will only talk about the basic logic of this matter." He said, "In the past year, you have been running around, killing two demons, three monarchs, and dragons, and befriended four women. Friend...then you want to hide this series of earth-shattering things from your parents? Do you think this is possible? "
Gongsun Ce raised his voice: "Everyone in the city is like this! Why can't I hide it!"
Orus was not to be outdone: "But they don't have four girlfriends! Four! Girlfriends!"
"Shut the hell up!"
Gongsun Ce held his head in his hands and let out a silent roar. Aulus adjusted his collar: "You've come to your senses, right? No matter how good your appearance is, your interpersonal relationship itself is suspicious to the point of being outrageous. , Your career and family are complementary to each other, and if you hide one side, the other side will inevitably be exposed. You can't reasonably explain to your parents these 'inexplicable' people around you, unless you find ways to make up a seamless lie."
"Of course I can." Gongsun Ce sneered, "I am the best lie master in the world!"
"You were four years ago," Aurus said, "and now your ability to weave lies is even worse than when I was in elementary school."
Gongsun Ce was dumbfounded, and Aurus tapped his temples, dumbfounded: "Don't you even realize it? I feel embarrassed for you when I see your plan that is full of mistakes... Why do you do this when you know that there is a high probability of something going wrong? How about asking your confidante to greet their parents one by one? Isn’t it okay to let them rest for two days? "
"What the hell are you talking about? That's my wife. It's hard to make my wife not see my parents!" Gongsun Ce glared.
"Oh, that makes sense." Orus nodded, "Then you took your parents to see the product expo. You know that Death Wings and Mutual Aid will be easy to mess up, so why make trouble over nothing?"
"I just want to show off in front of my parents!" Gongsun Ce became angry in embarrassment.
Aulus spread his hands as if he had nothing to say.
"You want to pretend that you are an ordinary college student, and you want them to know your strength. You want to hide your interpersonal relationships that are beyond common sense, and you want the women around you to have a good relationship with their parents... You The purpose and means are completely opposite to each other, so what kind of beautiful lie can you make up?"
Gongsun Ce was speechless for a moment, Aurus leaned on the rooftop railing and smiled sympathetically at him.
"I told you this a long time ago, and I'm going to say it again. Face it, old friend. You have changed so much that you can no longer deceive your family as easily as you did before. . You have ceased to be a charlatan for a long time, and now you are the invincible Jihui Division. The peerless master, please show some master style, use your wisdom to find a suitable way to tell them about your experience, don't be too naive. God disguises himself as the clown he once was.”
Gongsun Ce rolled his eyes: "I'm so noisy, why are you still the highest ranking person?"
"Forget about the stupid nicknames from before, okay?" Orus held his forehead, "I am just Orus Optimis. Now I am going to accompany my lover and friends. I wish you good luck."
Aurus made a gesture and disappeared from the rooftop. Gongsun Ce was blowing the winter wind alone, silently looking at the bustling crowd on campus, at the superpowers and their parents.
(Gongsun Ce, is everything going well with you?) Mr. Shiyu came to communicate.
(Not bad...) Gongsun Ce said dullly, (I was just lectured by Aurus. Can you believe it? That bully actually had the nerve to lecture me.)
(That person must have felt it deeply. I think he now understands the weight of family and friendship.) Shigure-kun chuckled, (I can guess what he said to you. What do you think?)
(It’s only been half a day and it’s already been like this. I’m thinking that if I keep this secret for two more days, I’m afraid I’ll be doomed.) Gongsun Ce sighed, (Here’s a trick for my brother.)
(my suggestion is……)
Rei Shigure grilled beef while discussing suggestions with his friends. He encouraged Gongsun Ce, put the beef on the plate, and rested for a while. Caldesia was eating a skewer next to him with a skewer in one hand. Seeing that he was done, she came over and asked, "What happened to his idiotic plan?"
"A complete defeat, a big loss, a big loss." Shigure-kun said. Caldesia laughed.
"I think Gongsun has thought about it and decided to reveal the truth, so I suggested that he take his parents to visit the activity room." Rei Shigure picked up a grilled sausage, "It's easier to soften things by starting with club activities. , is it a good idea?”
"That's pretty good, my dear. Let's start with the small club and talk about his grand adventure...ah!"
Caldesia's smile suddenly froze on her face, and Shigure-kun was shocked on the spot: "What's wrong?"
"This, this..." Caldesia's eyes wandered, "Reiyi, listen to me. I forgot to tell you something. I guess everyone will rent out the activity room today without using it..."
Shigure-kun suddenly felt bad: "Who did you lend it to?"
"It's those...those who have been busy recently..." Caldesia coyly said, "foreign friends who came to travel."
·
"Mom and Dad, I know there is some confusion in your hearts..."
"Oh, it's a shame you still know this!" Gongsun's mother was angry.
Gongsun Ce subconsciously shrank his neck: "But these misunderstandings can be eliminated! In fact, I did a lot of meaningful extracurricular activities this year, such as forming a club with Qin Qianbai, Shiyujun Cardesia, etc... If If you want to understand, how about we start slowly from here?"
Father Gongsun smiled half-heartedly: "Ace, we are really curious about your after-school life and how much time you spend on homework..."
"I studied hard!" Gongsun Ce's voice was loud.
"But the program you prepared for half a day today has opened our eyes. I'm afraid this club of yours is not a serious activity, right?"
"You can rest assured that their club activities are healthy and progressive. I can guarantee this as an instructor!" Teacher Aida said.
Teacher Aidar led the way, and as the club's instructor, he led the group to the fourth floor of Building E, the teaching building. Within a few minutes of Gongsun Ce leaving, she used all her eloquence to finally fool the hell out of the "dragon annihilation battle". She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Gongsun Ce's suggestion to visit the activity room. In Rei Shigure's view, this was the only correct decision in a half-day full of mistakes. No matter what, it would be fine to take a look at the activity room and listen to the songs everyone sang together. As for how Gongsun Ce plans to tell his wonderful adventure... …
That is someone's own business, and others can happily watch the fun without having to get into the pot with him!
Gongsun Ce is also adjusting his mentality. Confession does not seem to be a difficult decision now. Just imagine what Jihui Company has accomplished in the past year after traveling all over the country... It's not impossible to pick a few interesting things to talk about with your parents! Picking up a girl on the street who was made invisible by her ability, going to Lingdao to help her teacher resolve family conflicts, going to Hezhong to conduct an inspection of the giant dragon landform. These things are all worth talking about. There are many things that even if you put it another way, even your parents would pick it up after hearing it. If nothing goes wrong, then why hide it? Isn’t this full of youth and positive energy?
Gongsun Ce walked to the door of the activity room. The more he thought about it, the more confident he felt: "We have done a lot this year, and we have kept it in the activity room for many years. You two will be surprised to see it... …”
"Ace."
At this time, Qin Qianbai quietly tugged at the corner of his clothes. Gongsun Ce turned around and saw her pointing downstairs. The guy wearing a peaked cap at the door of Building E was waving vigorously when he looked over and mouth-synced.
Gongsun Ce looked carefully: "There...is someone inside...?"
Rei Shigure pushed open the small door of the activity room, only to see many ghosts in the dark environment, unknown creatures roaring loudly, and the abyss-like smell of alcohol burst out!
"Drink it all for me! If you don't drink it, you won't lose face. I have to finish this bucket today!!" The blond woman raised the bucket high and stepped on the stool.
The middle-aged man in a shirt wearing a cowboy hat held up two large wine glasses and drank wildly: "Damn it, I've never been afraid of anyone when it comes to drinking!"
The muscular man with blond hair and sunglasses directly picked up an oak barrel: "Okay, come again!"
"Drink!" "Drink!" "The one who falls first will take off his clothes and throw them out!" "Are there any more snacks?" "Hahaha, it's so cool!"
The small activity room was filled with wine bottles, jars, peanuts and edamame. There was nearly a layer of cigarette butts on the ashtray in the middle of the table. Some imaginative guy even brought in three barrels of vintage wine. Three drunken foreigners were drinking heavily in the room. The woman who drank the most was still raising her glass when Gongsun Ce arrived: "You had a good time, didn't you?"
Gongsun Ce's voice has never been so fragile: "Why are you here? Why are you here???"
He is familiar with the three drunkards. The blond man in sunglasses is Ranger Veidt, the man in a cowboy hat and shirt is Champion Klein, and the blond woman is the true form of the Saint... But why the hell are you bunch of Hezhu guys in my territory? Why are you in my activity room? !
Servais came over drunk and opened her mouth smelling of alcohol: "I don't know how to come here to visit Gaius' children. Werther is leading a group of people on a trip. We happened to meet each other and asked to find a place to have a drink... But you don’t even have a bar in your school. Blowing bottles in front of a bunch of students would have such a negative impact! So I asked Caldesia to borrow this place to avoid any negative impact. Isn’t this sense of public ethics interesting?”
She patted Gongsun Ce on the shoulder with satisfaction and looked at the equally pale Rei Shigure with interest without waiting for a word: "Rei Shigure, your outfit is very fashionable today! What are you two pretending to be? Start pretending to be teachers. Already?"
Rei Shigure was quite devastated: "Miss, you have recognized the wrong person. I am Alice Adar..."
"Ah?" Servais didn't react, "Why did you even change your name today?"
Ranger Werther hadn't drunk much yet, and his logic was still clear. He also knew that he was looking at the two unfamiliar couples, so he took two cups over in a friendly manner: "Would you like to drink?"
Father Gongsun declined: "No, thank you."
Qin Qianbai was trying hard to pretend that he was a vase, Shigurei began to imitate the vase meditation method, and Gongsun Ce racked his brains to think of a logical and perfect excuse to gather this drunkard together. His almost overloaded brain has deduced this plan to perfection, but there are always some unforeseen surprises in the chaotic system of reality, one of which is that several people present are a little drunk.
So the moment before he was about to speak, Klein shook a wine bottle and joked: "Hey, why are there so few women around the playboy today?"
Gongsun's mother's keen observation allowed her to instantly grasp the key point in the chaotic scene: "Playboy?"
Gongsun Ce began to retreat step by step, towards the door at an almost crawling speed. Klein felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong: "Oh, sorry, just a little joke..."
"No, no, sir, this is not a joke, this matter is very important." Gongsun's mother said, "I'm good at lingua franca. Please help me ask these foreigners, what did they do to deserve this title?"
Father Gongsun had a very good eye, and he immediately focused on the most honest guy in the room. He grabbed Ranger Witte's hand and asked kindly: "Sir, I would like to trouble you to answer my confusion. My son Gongsun Ce...does he have a girlfriend now?"
Ranger Werther looked around, held the wine glass, and said stumblingly: "Yes... yes."
Father Gongsun asked politely: "How many are there?"
The small activity room was eerily quiet. Gongsun Ce's feet were almost to the door, and the two vases were staring at him. Ranger Werther sobered up on the spot, and his wild intuition honed in years of battles allowed him to see the danger of what was happening here and now. He began to quickly consider the pros and cons:
If you tell the truth, you will offend someone badly.
If he lies, he will offend four people badly.
So, Werther, think about it carefully, use the alcohol in your brain, how should you answer at this time?
Ranger Werther drank a glass of white wine in one gulp and said loudly: "Four!"
Gongsun Ce ran for his life out of the door, but unfortunately he tripped over Vase No. 1 and grabbed Vase No. 2. He fell on the spot at the door of Cyber·Ghost·Music Club. Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged woman's Hedong lion's roar resounded throughout the teaching building.
"Gong! Sun! Ce!"
“Help——!!!”
