Ten minutes ago.
"I don't want to eat it, so take it off first."
Bai Lingyu waved his hand, leaned on the office chair and pinched his eyebrows with a headache.
"Colonel, the council's answer is also expected. The retreat plan requires absolutely strong evidence to be approved."
Adjutant Xu reluctantly put away his dinner plate, "Just a full moon and an anomaly of the pollution value soaring and then falling back can't shake their stereotypes of more than ten years. It's better to wait for the survey station to provide substantive data evidence. In this way, the parliament will regress no matter how unwilling it is.”
"Substantial..." Bo Lingyu laughed angrily, leaned back completely on his chair, and looked at the cold and pale ceiling, "Yes, when I come up with substantive evidence, something will happen, and the parliament must not rush As an afterthought?"
"I think you are too pessimistic." Adjutant Xu comforted, "We have been fighting aliens for twenty years and have a certain understanding of them. We have occasionally experienced data anomalies before, but it is just a difference between the full moon. Today. The data of hunters returning to the city are also very stable, and the rescue team outside the city has found no abnormalities."
"A certain understanding?"
Bai Lingyu turned his office chair and looked at the night outside the one-way explosion-proof glass:
"We don't even know the cause of the catastrophe now. The prevention and control office can't even remove the pollution from the alien corpses. The research and development of new material weapons is far away. Just like this, how can we talk about 'understanding'? It is necessary to have a backup plan. of."
Adjutant Xu pursed his lips and spoke hesitantly: "But the East Bank District is not completely managed by our Third Base. Isn't there still an overseas inspector general from the parliament..."
The overseas inspector general is an official sent by the parliament to manage the city together with the military commander.
"In wartime, there is no separation between military and political affairs, but whoever is in charge of the army has the final say."
Bai Lingyu twitched the corners of his lips and showed a smile without any smile: "If we really fight, if he dares to get in the way, I will kill him."
Adjutant Xu understands Bai Lingyu's style. It's okay to joke with his subordinates for convenience. He doesn't even have any airs. But when the bottom line of "city defense and security" is involved, he really doesn't recognize his relatives. He will definitely do what he says. .
"Do you need me to arrange a meeting with the Inspector General for you?"
"Okay, just tomorrow," Bai Lingyu added, "But I have to pick a good time. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat lunch or I'll vomit out my breakfast."
"clear."
Adjutant Xu recorded it, then paused and said, "And the girl you asked me to find...that is, your daughter's information has been sent to your terminal."
daughter……
Thinking of his experience this morning, Bai Lingyu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He picked up the tablet-sized military terminal from the table and unlocked it to view the information.
It's pitiful, only half a page.
Even the one-inch photo was discovered after Adjutant Xu asked technicians to intercept it from the surveillance camera in the morning.
"There is no information at all... Hiss, her ID registration time was last night? I can understand that she was rescued yesterday and may need to get a new ID. Some people will choose to give up their old identities in order to say goodbye to the past, but There should also be records.”
Bai Lingyu frowned and raised his head:
"Can't we find information from the database based on photos?"
"There is no record in the outer city database. It may be in the inner city resident files."
Although he had already said it, Adjutant Xu still explained diligently and professionally:
"But we don't rule out the possibility that her parents, well... her parents didn't register her for various reasons, and this possibility is even greater. After all, the rescue location is in the East Coast District."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Bo Lingyu meaningfully.
The meaning is clear: I have to ask you, Colonel.
Bai Lingyu: "..."
I'm not! I don't! Don't slander me!
But he and Baizhu had agreed to continue the relationship of "father and daughter". At this moment, he could only press his forehead with a hint of bitterness and wave to Adjutant Xu: You can leave as quickly as possible.
But Adjutant Xu still had work to report, so he ignored the bitterness of his boss's "Scumbag Report" and continued solemnly:
"Colonel, as well as the blood test you stopped, all the samples have been returned. Do they need to be destroyed?"
"Well, sell them all... no, send them to my office."
Bai Lingyu suddenly remembered something and thought for a moment after changing his words, "Has all the relevant data in the blood test equipment been destroyed?"
After he learned of Baizhu's identity in the morning, he immediately stopped the prevention and treatment center's examination of the remaining blood from the tentacles of the alien butterfly.
Originally, blood testing was a very quick process, but contaminated blood mutates, making it difficult to strip out stable DNA for testing gender, appearance and other information. Furthermore, the Empire's technology in this area is not mature enough, and it takes a long time. Relatively long.
This also gave Bai Lingyu the opportunity to call a halt and get the sample back before Bai Zhu's identity was exposed.
"They were all destroyed," Adjutant Xu nodded solemnly, "and I followed your instructions and watched the whole process."
In the eyes of Bai Lingyu of the prevention and control center, the only uses were "providing hunter missions", "providing pollution drugs" and "doing other groceries", and he could not trust the people inside.
Bai Lingyu nodded: "That's okay, you..."
"Buzz——"
The phone suddenly vibrated.
Bai Lingyu was stunned, took out his mobile phone and saw a row of encrypted numbers.
It was him who gave Baizhu the communication bracelet.
Bai Lingyu answered the call and silently signaled Adjutant Xu to leave.
"How are discussions with the Council going?"
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded immature due to age, but it was surprisingly steady.
It was so steady that Bai Lingyu immediately thought of Baizhu's calm eyes when he threatened him with a gun, and his demeanor and movements during the conversation... He really didn't look like a child, except when he rushed up to me and called me "Dad", but that There was a lot of thunder but no rain. Not even a few crocodile tears were shed to accompany the performance. It was really unprofessional.
Bai Lingyu clicked his tongue inwardly. In order to cover up his distraction for two seconds, he answered the question more seriously and concisely.
…
"Not optimistic."
Bai Lingyu's answer came in via Bluetooth.
Baizhu frowned slightly, but there was not much surprise. She had already expected the result, but she was just reflexively disgusted by the parliament. He paused for a second before speaking again:
"The parliament has not agreed to evacuate, and we need you to present substantive evidence."
This is actually a question, but Bai Zhu is very sure of the answer, which sounds just like a statement.
"Yes," Bai Lingyu said with a hint of sarcasm, "I want to have substantial evidence. How can I still patiently discuss it with them?"
No, it would probably turn into a "negotiation" of demands and threats. Bai Shu complained in his heart and said with a smile:
“The current composition of the parliament is really worrying. They are a group of old die-hards who are about to retire so they don’t want to start a war. They are a group of die-hards who are new to office but are addicted to enjoyment and are more conservative. Others are gold diggers and they also have a bit of a stench. "
Insightful!
It was so damn close to his stomach that he already felt like vomiting.
Bai Lingyu rubbed his eyebrows and was about to speak——
Boom boom.
There was a knock on the door, and Bai Lingyu put his cell phone on the table: "Come in."
"Colonel," Adjutant Xu came back, "the inspector general is here."
