"Tsk, tsk, tsk, once I shave my beard, I instantly look twenty years younger." Guo Jia said smugly to herself in front of the mirror.
Guo Jia stayed on the uninhabited island for nearly a year without a mirror to groom him. Even after shaving and taking a shower, he still looked like a savage.
"If you think about it carefully, I went to bed without taking a shower yesterday. It's really unhygienic!" Guo Jia murmured to himself.
Now that he has returned to the city, he has to look like a city person. He plans to go out to get a haircut and have breakfast. Anyway, he has 100,000 yuan in his ID card, which is enough for him to squander. But he didn't feel at ease leaving Qian alone in the house, so he decided to take Qian out for a walk.
After Qian was woken up by the shock, she wiped the rash at the corner of her mouth, looked at Guo Jia and said excitedly: "Brother, you are so handsome!"
"Hmph, I'll be even more handsome if I change my hairstyle soon." Guo Jia fiddled with his weed-like long hair and replied shamelessly.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, they saw Lao Wang walking in with his four bodyguards.
"Huh? You're not lame!" Guo Jia said in surprise.
"This is not your concern. I brought you breakfast, so you don't have to go out." Lao Wang replied.
"Emmm, okay, I originally wanted to go out and get a haircut." Guo Jia complained.
"I can cut it for you. I have a barber's license." Alipi said with a smile.
"No, thank you." Guo Jiawan declined.
"After we finish talking about the business, you can go out as you please." Lao Wang said.
Half an hour later, everyone came to the living room. Guo Jia omitted the story of what happened to him in Penglai Cave, and expanded his experience on the uninhabited island five times to give feedback to Lao Wang. He had long expected that he would definitely return to the mainland. He was going to be asked about his origins, so he had already prepared his words.
"In other words, you have been a savage on an uninhabited island for five years, and then you met this vampire girl who can build ships, and then you were able to return to the mainland." After listening to this, Lao Wang made an interpretation of what Guo Jia said. Summarize.
"Yes, every word is true." Guo Jia said confidently.
"It sounds like nonsense, but I believe it for now. There's no point in dwelling on the past anyway." Lao Wang said unconcernedly.
"Then you still ask?" Guo Jia replied.
"It's just a formality, otherwise how can I prove that you are fundamentally clean." Lao Wang said with a smile.
"That makes sense..." Midway through Guo Jia's words, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, where is my sword? Did you agree to give it back to me?"
"Don't be impatient, wait until I finish speaking." Lao Wang waved his hand.
"Then give us the breakfast first. It won't taste good if it gets cold." Guo Jia pointed at the packing boxes held by Xiao An and another fierce-looking bodyguard.
"Give it to them. The four of you go and wait outside the door first. Guo Jia and I have something important to discuss." Lao Wang agreed.
The bodyguards put breakfast on the table and returned to the gate to guard.
Seeing that Guo Jia had already begun to unpack the box, Lao Wang continued: "In other words, you know nothing about the changes in current affairs in the past five years, right?"
"Yes, um~ this soy milk is good." Guo Jia took a sip of the soy milk and replied perfunctorily.
Seeing this, Qian also wanted to taste it. Guo Jia tried to feed her a spoonful. After Qian drank it into her stomach, she said with an uncomfortable look on her face: "It tastes terrible."
"You should know that the world's territory is controlled by various countries and governments." Lao Wang said.
"Otherwise, where did you buy this tofu cake? It's delicious." Guo Jia replied absentmindedly. Seeing Qian's greedy look, he fed Qian another spoonful, and she vomited immediately.
"Four years ago, a terrorist organization called the Hidden Alliance kidnapped the president of country A and found a person with physical development abilities who could transform into someone else to pretend to be his replacement." When Lao Wang said this, his tone paused.
"Awesome!" Guo Jia exclaimed.
"Originally, this is a national matter of country A. Even if there is a coup, it has nothing to do with China. But just two years ago, the fake president of country A invited leaders of various countries to discuss the exchange rates of various currencies. The United States is participating in an international conference called the "International Foreign Trade Summit."" When Lao Wang said this, he paused again.
"Why don't you talk anymore? Keep going." Guo Jia urged.
"Don't you guess what happened first?" Lao Wang pretended.
"They kidnapped the leaders of various countries? And then they need us to rescue them?" Guo Jia guessed.
"They are not all leaders, but they are basically prominent political figures from various countries. However, only half of these big shots survived, and the rest were purged by the Hidden Alliance." Old Wang shook his head and told the truth.
"What the hell!? How many countries participated in this meeting?" Guo Jia said in shock.
"67." Lao Wang replied.
Guo Jia was stunned, and the chopsticks in his hands fell on the table. He swallowed and said in disbelief: "Isn't this tantamount to going against the whole world? These people are crazy."
"The Hidden Alliance requires each country to cede a city as a stronghold of the Hidden Alliance. However, all those who opposed the meeting were killed. Currently, 17 countries have chosen to compromise and ceded the city to Hidden alliance." Old Wang said slowly.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, why did you compromise? Beat them!" Guo Jia said in confusion.
"The leader of the Hidden Alliance is named Bai Ye. He possesses S and other abilities - space shuttle. He can leave space marks on any object. Wherever there is a space mark, he can instantly travel there. The 34 people who came back Representatives from various countries were all stamped with space marks by him. The leaders of some countries valued their own lives more than their country and their citizens. For their own safety, they used various shameless reasons to deceive the people and take away the ownership of the city. Transferred." Lao Wang explained.
"That's not right. Will the people agree? They will definitely resist, right?" Guo Jia analyzed.
"The Hidden Alliance calls these ceded cities "Free Cities". Those countries that compromise only need to nominally recognize these cities as belonging to the Hidden Alliance, and the local governments can still maintain law and order. Not only that, the citizens of the Free Cities do not need to Those citizens are too late to be happy if they pay any taxes, so how can they resist? However, the Hidden Alliance will establish a stronghold in every free city, and only those with super powers who have sworn to join the Hidden Alliance can enter these strongholds." Lao Wang said eloquently.
"Stronghold? Doesn't that still occupy land resources?" Guo Jia asked doubtfully.
"They chose some government public lands, or sparsely populated places, which will not have any substantial impact on the interests of local residents." Lao Wang said with a wry smile.
"We in China shouldn't be able to tolerate this happening, right?" Guo Jia asked tentatively.
"Be confident and get rid of it." Lao Wang said seriously.
"Then have we sent representatives from China?" When Guo Jia said this, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Our representative from China pretended to agree at the meeting, but actually did not fulfill the agreement. We temporarily isolated him in a secret room made of coke bricks." Lao Wang replied.
Guo Jia's memory was pieced together by watching videos. He recalled it for a long time before answering with some uncertainty: "Is the coke brick the building material that isolates spiritual power?"
"Don't pretend to be stupid with me." Lao Wang frowned. According to the information obtained, Guo Jia is a top student. How could he not know about Jiao Jing Brick.
Guo Jia scratched his head and eased his embarrassment with a silly smile.
"But the Hidden Alliance is not so easy to fool. They assassinated two of our deputy national leaders for this reason. That's why there was a battle in the harbor. The reason why you can't meet anyone in the harbor city is because of the Shatin District. The citizens were ordered to evacuate. The Hidden Alliance made a suggestion to our country. Each side would send an ability user below level 7 to duel. As long as we win, we don’t have to cede the city to them." Lao Wang continued.
"That unreasonable fool named Jin Zuixin was sent by the Yin League?" Guo Jia blurted out.
Lao Wang nodded.
"Did you win?" Guo Jia asked.
"He was defeated by the little girl next to you." Lao Wang pointed at Qian and said.
Guo Jia was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
"But it's a pity that she is not a candidate sent by our Chinese government, so this duel will not count." Lao Wang waved his hand.
"What should we do?" Guo Jia asked.
"We have to send people to Mokoda to renegotiate with the people from the Hidden Alliance." Lao Wang said.
"Mokoda? Isn't that the capital of Yili? Isn't Yili a fighting nation? They ceded the capital!?" Guo Jia said in disbelief.
"Not only did the Yili government refuse to compromise, it also asked the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to announce that it would send troops to attack the Yin League's strongholds. As a result, the Yin League took the lead in attacking. In just one night, almost all the elders of the Congress were eliminated." Lao Wang calmly said said.
"How is that possible..." Guo Jia didn't believe it.
"It's because everyone thinks it's impossible, so no one has a sense of crisis, and that's why the situation has turned into this step by step. If only I had been willing to listen to me and fully assist Clark, things would not have reached this point today. Lao Wang said angrily.
"What are you talking about? Don't be the Riddler." Guo Jia said in confusion.
"The Hidden Alliance has a person with the ability to predict the future. Although Yili made advance arrangements, they still allowed the Hidden Alliance to succeed. If other countries want to raid the Hidden Alliance's strongholds, they will also be informed in advance. It is estimated that they will still be able to predict the future. If you don't take action, you will suffer first, so if you want to break the situation, you must have someone who can't be predicted to kill the person with the ability to predict, or you can kill Bai Ye, after all, the hozen will be scattered when the tree falls." Lao Wang changed his words.
"Then who won't be predicted?" Guo Jia asked.
"You!" Lao Wang pointed out.
"Me? Why?" Guo Jia asked confused.
"I don't know either. Maybe you have an adventure." Lao Wang replied.
"Don't fool me. What am I good at? I can't even use my abilities now." Guo Jia shook his head.
"I know you don't have the ability now, but don't worry, I can't let you die. I just need you to represent me and go to Mokoda to negotiate with the people of the Hidden Alliance." Lao Wang reassured.
"Why don't you go by yourself?" Guo Jia declined.
"The reason why people from the Hidden Alliance are willing to negotiate with China is because of my existence. Now the only people with precognitive abilities known in the world are me and the one from the Hidden Alliance. If I go, just kill me. If it's not over, what's the point of negotiating?" Lao Wang explained.
"...Why do I feel like I have a narrow escape from death?" Guo Jia said with shame.
"Don't worry, you won't die. Your luck is booming." Lao Wang said with a smile.
