Novilia, Hanshan Port, VIP room in the exhibition hall of the city's science and technology zone.
Representative Luo stood in front of the window, looking down at the rolling clouds outside the window. He could see the white clouds twisting, and a huge snowstorm was brewing inside. Novilia is a small planet that is frozen all year round, with snowstorms blowing one after another around the world. Due to the harsh environment of the planet, people are unwilling to settle here despite the superb living environment and salary. Hanshan Port is the largest city and capital of Novilia. Apart from the floating population, there are only less than 400,000 people living here permanently.
This brewing blizzard will undoubtedly affect the lives of countless people.
But for Senator Luo, who lives on the top floor of the 500th floor, even the birth of a snowstorm is just a glimpse of the scenery in his eyes.
As a powerful member of the Star Alliance Council, his position is high enough to ignore most ups and downs.
The farce that just happened in the lobby on the ground floor, from the moment the gag video appeared on the Internet to the end when the two Asari smashed the billboard, he had been watching the live broadcast indifferently - with no intention of stopping it.
There is no doubt that the contract will be cancelled, but he doesn't care. The impatience he showed in front of the Wallers before is of course fake. A successful politician must regard acting as his life...even when he is alone.
Almost shortly after the signing meeting turned into a farce, Congressman Luo received a call from Fifth Fleet Commander Hackett, informing him that the "Elkoss Joint" contract had been cancelled. At that time, he was not surprised at all, and he even had no grudges in his heart. Senator Luo deliberately exchanged greetings with General Hackett before hanging up the communication - rather than a contract, he hoped to establish some kind of personal relationship with this rising star, which was more important than a hundred business contracts. .
If only I had known General Hackett's attitude. He will do better, even at the expense of his own immediate interests. The current situation made him a little regretful, because General Hackett handled it well. So nice that I don't owe him any favors.
Unless you stand at this level, you will never understand that commercial contracts are not important. In fact, livable planets, fame, and interests are not important. Even the Wallers are not his goal!
The so-called "plan" discussed with the Waller people is just an interactive trick. With such little conspiracies in the pockets of politicians like him, you can have as many as you want! What's really important is actually only one thing - through this incident, he established some kind of trading relationship with the Turians, the most powerful empire in the galaxy!
He is very looking forward to the fruitful fruits this relationship will bear if it develops. The strength of the Turians is worthy of admiration. But they actually handed over such an important matter of diplomacy to the profit-seeking Wallers, which shows that this great empire still has value worth exploring.
If I were responsible for the diplomatic affairs of the Turian Empire, what would it be like... Thinking of this, Councilor Luo felt hot.
Exchanging benefits on a civilized and racial level with a large empire is the highest achievement of a politician.
"Ha!" A woman's chuckle sounded behind him.
After being horrified, Councilor Luo instantly cleared his mind of useless thoughts about "how did she get in" and quickly calmed down. He wanted to use the calmest attitude to turn around and face the visitor - Senator Luo had encountered countless dangers in his life. But Senator Luo is confident that even if the person who comes is a cold-blooded killer. He can also convince her to side with him!
However, at this moment, he found that he had lost control of his body. Representative Luo kept blinking. His forehead and lips were twitching, veins were bulging, and sweat seeped from his hair and flowed down his neck. A small, transparent probe was inserted into the hair root above his neck. Just such a small poisonous needle turned him into a stiff living dead.
From the air behind him, a slender hand stretched out and lightly opened his multi-purpose tool. "Account and password, just blink when you agree. I'll only ask once~" A young woman's voice with a bit of evil sounded in his ears. Representative Luo immediately blinked hard. Then he restrained his eyes hard!
"Very good, it seems you are a smart man... The more money you have, the softer my heart becomes." Ding Mumu said with a smile, her figure emerging from the illusory air behind Councilor Luo. Ding Mumu followed Councilor Luo's prompts and went through various paths layer by layer, and finally found an extremely hidden small document...
Lu Yuan never liked being a dishonest person, even if it was just "official business" received from the Star Alliance Navy. So before he passed through the repeater, he left a letter to Ding Mumu - if he couldn't come back in time, he hoped that Mumu could take over and complete the next task.
Now, Lu Yuan attracts attention, and then Ding Mumu completes the kill. Of course, the result is more perfect.
Councilor Luo twitched slightly, and he saw the young girl's appearance on the glass opposite. She looks very young, always smiling with the corners of her mouth raised, and has two dimples. She looks like a female student who has not graduated from high school! However, looking at the girl's sky blue and orange personal armor, his pupils shrank, but he breathed a sigh of relief and simply handed over all the accounts except the election fund!
Because that color combination is the armor of members of the "Eclipse" mercenary group, one of the three major mercenary groups in the galaxy - except for the members, anyone who wears similar armor will be "Eclipse" attack! The core strength of the "Celestial Eclipse" mercenary group are the Bichis from the Asari tribe! With their superpowers and the backing of the most powerful country in the galaxy, they can do whatever they want... But the reason for Senator Luo to relax is that mercenaries are mercenaries, and problems that can be solved with money are not problems.
Ding Mumu rested her chin on his shoulder, looked at the universal tools that the two of them were connecting with, and transferred each other's deposits to his own universal tool account one by one. (After the implementation of credit currency, the role of banks has been reduced, and everyone can Manage your own "credit" coins like a bank.
"Oh~ It's still a little bit short..." After the transfer was completed, Ding Mumu said with some regret.
"It's... not quite... more... less..., I... still... have..." At this time, the numbness caused by the fine needle was slightly relieved. For the sake of his own life, Representative Luo almost unleashed his greatest potential! Speak little by little.
"Did you know? The aura of your camp is pure black... without any color at all." Ding Mumu said something in his ear that he couldn't understand at all, but it didn't feel very good. "It's okay if you are greedy enough, but the money in your account is only tens of millions of stars." Ding Mumu pinched the tail of the transparent needle with two slender fingers. "A Yuan said that politicians are different from politicians in that they have no ideals... So if there is very little money in their accounts, it means they have great ambitions. If such people betray the interests of mankind, they must be killed."
Senator Luo suddenly understood many, many things...
Ding Mumu used a little force with her fingers to pull out the small needle. Councilor Luo was surprised at first, then ecstatic, and then he happily floated upwards... and just left his body...
As long as it was pulled out, he would die, and he would die from a heart attack. Lu Yuan's "instant death spell" on this needle was originally unsolvable.
In the entire transaction, the "Elkoss United" enterprise of the Woler people is at best shoddy and improper competition; the person responsible for inspecting and accepting the project should be regarded as derelict in their duties; the Turians are even more so, it is their duty to protect their own nation. Legitimate rights and interests... these don't matter - only this Congressman Luo, from the moment he regards the interests of his race as a personal political bargaining chip, Lu Yuan must kill him now that he knows about it.
"Well, just think of this as my joining the group..." Ding Mumu turned on the holographic screen and took a photo of herself and Councilor Luo's body without a care. She is now only a peripheral member of the "Celestial Eclipse" mercenary group. To become a full member, one must also complete a murder.
Pointing to her own shadow in the glass wall, Ding Mumu said softly, "Congratulations on becoming Bichi!"
A blue blade of light condensed on her left wrist, and she deftly opened the buckle of the window. Then her body lightly passed through the gap that was no wider than the width of her hand, and she stretched and glided...
He quickly fell into the clouds where a blizzard was still brewing.
