The bell in the secret room rang, signaling someone at the front desk to enter the store.
Bai Shu turned on the large-screen surveillance camera and laughed softly when he saw the visitor. He looked at Sharger again: "What do you think of what happens next?"
"You obviously have a plan in mind when you make a risky move." After nearly ten years of strategic support, Sharger is very familiar with Bai Shu's temperament and thoughts. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Otherwise, there wouldn't be a big arms case, and then there would be a big arms case." The Li family went out to attack the only son of the Xi family."
"But I just want to find out the person behind it, and I don't want the inner and outer cities to be really separated."
Baizhu habitually rubbed her severed finger, which was her usual thinking action: "After the new year, the outer city's exploration of the ebb tide aliens will be put on the agenda again, and part of the army will be mobilized. This is necessary, no matter how the current situation changes. A mission that cannot be shaken. After all, our biggest enemy is the alien that can destroy the race.
"And the inner city occupies a terrain advantage. Once the alien tide counterattacks, the attack will first hit the outer city. If there is a real trouble, the outer city will easily be attacked from both sides. There are also reasons for the political rule. After all, the outer city has been suffering from long-term Those who control the inner city break their bones and connect their tendons. Whoever raises the flag first to engage in internal strife will lose the advantage in the hearts of the people first.
"If the outer city is really allowed to react, then the commander will be oppressed by public opinion. Not only will the army be disloyal, but the people who suffered more from the civil war will also resent him, as well as the arms dealers who are now being oppressed. The inner city will let the old man I took over this hot potato just to incite hatred for him... I won't do this in the midst of a storm."
The people don't care about the disputes between the inner city and the inner city. Although they are indirectly oppressed by the inner city, they can still survive after all. If the civil war really breaks out and they cannot survive, they will not criticize the inner city council, but the most direct The leader of the city is also the commander of the outer city.
Baizhu was afraid of Bai Lingyu alone.
She didn't want to gamble with her father's reputation, and Bai Lingyu's sincere military spirit.
“Those who wish to fight against the outside must first settle within.”
Sharge patiently listened to everything. Since Bai Shu was not in a hurry to see the visitor, he did not ask any questions. He also had some guesses about the visitor. He coughed a few times and said:
"Now that the alien tide has receded, the morale of the army is still together. Lieutenant General Bai has a high degree of control over the army, and the people are complaining a lot about the inner city. In addition, the attitude of the Li family towards Lieutenant General Bai has made the army dissatisfied. This is a rare opportunity. It's a good time. Whether it's external conditions or internal situations, it's very suitable.
"It's just that the latest batch of supplies from the outer city haven't been sent yet. We can wait until the inner city sends this year's supplies. But procrastinating again and again is not a good thing. Since you have already done it, you should be very clear about what you will face in the end. cough……"
"Why have you been coughing so badly recently?" Baizhu frowned tightly, "Is Xia Fan here? Keep an eye on your boss, drink more water, keep warm, and take medicine on time."
"I just caught a cold." Sharge responded as if Xia Fan had someone to rely on. He smiled helplessly and said, "Go and see your guests. Maybe you can come to a conclusion tonight."
He knew who Bai Zhu was going to see.
"Okay, you go to bed early."
Bai Zhu hung up the communication, and Sharger in the room coughed violently and choked, even coughing until his head became dizzy.
Waving his hand to tell the impatient Xia Fan to step back, Sharge steadied his breathing:
"Ci doesn't control troops, but he tends to hesitate when the word 'friendship' is involved. But the first thing a commander sees is the overall interests. He knows all these little tricks and does them very well.
"Now she is afraid, not only because it involves the interests of the entire empire and even mankind. If she makes a mistake, she will be doomed. She does not continue, but it is because she has a bottom line in her heart."
Sharger saw clearly, and the firelight of the fireplace reflected in his blue-green eyes, like a fire burning deep in the soul. It didn't look hot at first glance, but only made people feel fearful, but he was still gentle when he spoke:
"This bottom line was given to her by Bai Lingyu. It's like a dog leash to tie a wolf. I don't like it."
Xia Fan lowered his head, and the only sound left in the room was the slight crackling of firewood.
Sharger could have used the heating and floor heating, but he didn't know why he got interested in it these past few days and just used the decorative fireplace. He just watched the firelight to relax or think when he had nothing else to do.
"I heard that Xiao Shu and Bai Lingyu didn't get along for long, and there were doubts about their blood relationship. I knew who she was when we first met, so I took the initiative to talk to her, and later I rescued her... I was there at that time I thought: If this child is not the biological father and daughter of Bai Lingyu, how could he be taken with him, get the data of the shoulder-mounted cannon, and take her with him."
Sharger smiled, stroking the long black rope tied to his wrist with his fingers. At the end of the rope, the bullet successfully developed by Baizhu was tied to the end, which was given to him as a New Year's gift before leaving.
Sharger cherishes it.
"It wasn't until I got along with her that I felt that she was a lovable and good child, and even though we didn't get along for a long time, she was very similar in her bones. It's just a matter of digging deeper into her bones and seeping into her soul. Here, you can see some differences.
"She is far crazier than Bai Lingyu, addicted to gambling, and cold-blooded. I caught a glimpse of my younger self in that haze."
Sharge paused, stared at the fire in the fireplace, feeling dazed for a moment, and then continued:
"I have no wife, no lover, no children. Over the past ten years, I have truly raised Xiao Shu as my daughter. I have watched her expand her power, watch her fight violence with violence, watch her become restrained and arrogant, and watch her gradually become younger and younger. Like me, I fully support her in broadening the "Secret Road", spending huge costs to develop new weapons, and tracking down "Alice". I also see her getting entangled with Bai Lingyu's matter.
"Xia Fan, I really don't want her to follow my old path and suffer pain and loneliness. So I persuade her to go back and meet Bai Lingyu to untie her knot. I think as long as she can be happy, it will be fine. Leave a very good escape route for yourself, an extra layer of protection...but she doesn’t handle the matter of the inner and outer cities like me."
Xia Fan didn't dare to answer, and he knew that Sharger was just talking to himself, and he didn't need to interrupt. Sure enough, Sharger sighed longly, shook his head gently as if he were mocking himself, and asked himself with a smile:
"Is there anything more joyful and sad than raising a daughter?"
Why don't you try raising two and fight fire with fire, boss... Xia Fan thought to himself, hearing Sharge coughing again, and wanted to remind him that burning firewood in the fireplace smells, but as I said before, Sharge didn't. Heeding the advice, he had no choice but to change his words.
"Is the fire in the fireplace too bright? If the boss wants to go out soon, the internal and external conflict will easily injure the body." Xia Fan advised in a low voice, "Otherwise, don't add firewood. The temperature is just right."
Sharger coughed a few times and watched the flames in the fireplace rise. After he stopped coughing, he ordered: "It's not warm yet, add another fire."
