103, Chapter 103
After three rounds of wine, half of the people in the banquet hall dispersed.
The band played gentle strings and the lights softened.
Bai Xiaoxu said goodbye to a friend, looked around at the place, came to the self-service area, and picked up a cup of pudding.
The pudding was made in a very good manner, and in the eyes of his three-star food critic, it was the level of the buffet.
"Is it delicious?" someone next to him asked.
Bai Xiaoxu looked up and saw that it was Douglas. Douglas had contact with him intermittently this year. The times he went to the lighthouse to visit Qiu Qiu was always led by Douglas.
"Okay." Bai Xiaoxu said the truth, "I don't care about the use of materials and methods. I guess Qiu Qiulai couldn't say anything good."
Doug touched the top of his head, and also went to get one, and sat down with him against the wall.
"Are you not used to it? It's been so long," Bai Xiaoxu asked, "If you don't like short hair, don't cut it."
Doug touched it again: "I always feel like I have to change my mindset, otherwise I can't hold on."
Bai Xiaoxu was not the one who was in their management office, so he didn't talk much and asked, "Have Zhong Yu's announcement been made?"
"I'm talking." Doug bit the spoon and sighed vaguely, "I'll always say it."
Wei Yan moved closer to the alliance, sooner or later, one of them would be in line with it and communicate with information. Everyone would know Zhong Yu’s current identity and position.
Although I am afraid that the public will know their future reactions, if the news is not announced now, other channels will rashly learn from it in the future that the reactions of the big ones will be greater and less difficult to control.
"The tone of the notification is softer, and you can make more guesses and say something plausible, and it will be better to accept it." Bai Xiaoxu said.
"The superior said the same thing, and said that it was fortunate that Qiu Qiu was there." Doug said.
"Um?"
"Qiu Qiu saved all of us. This thing has been announced long ago, and now Daluo has accepted it. If he didn't say bad things about Team Zhong, Daluo wouldn't even bother with him," Doug explained.
The world became so fast, Bai Xiaoxu thought.
The days when Qiu Qiu was scared by countless people seemed to have become a hero in the blink of an eye. The former hero has been cast in shadow and his posture is no longer glamorous.
"Oh, it's too early to think about this now, I'm just making preparations... Can you go back? It's another matter."
Doug began to worry again, his eyebrows drooped, and he suddenly became like an unlucky guy when he first came to the Devil's Restaurant.
"You think, Wang Ting tried every means to destroy us. Now we are suddenly alive, and they will let us be honestly brought back? Of course, if our news has been known by ordinary people, they will not dare to destroy us again... But what measures will the royal court take if he receives the news first?" Doug said in a mess, "That's over..."
Bai Xiaoxu heard a black line: "What should I do?"
"What can't be done," Doug said dejectedly, "We have no other choice. If we don't go back, there is a possibility of going back. Now we can only take one step at a time."
The two sighed together, incompatible with the joyful banquet hall filled with melodious string music.
There is a dance partner dancing in the middle of the banquet hall, but the dance posture is bad but the confidence is gained.
Their eyes passed through them, and there was a partner with a huge height difference next to the band, and a dance was like acrobatics. Douglas looked closely and found that it was Gao Ming and Jiang Que, and Ah Hu holding the terminal next to him while filming.
The band drummer was resting, holding a blue drink in his hand, and the beautiful sister he was talking to looked like Qingqing... That was it. I don’t know what they were talking about, but it was so ambiguous.
"Hey."
Douglas was poked by Bai Xiaoxu and looked in the direction he pointed.
Wen Jin sat on the windowsill, and He Tao turned around and sat on her lap.
Is this drunk too much?
Doug felt a little dazed, as if he hadn't seen them communicate in private for a long time. After a while, He Tao buried her face in Wen Jin's chest, as if she was crying. Doug saw her shoulder twitching.
“…”
Doug and Bai Xiaoxu awkwardly withdrew their gaze and turned to another direction at the same time. At this glance, they saw Qiu Qiu.
He didn't know when he opened the window and sat alone on a device raised on the exterior wall of the lighthouse.
The Weiyan District without the moon is only the night light shining, like a sea of yellow stars.
Qiu Qiu looked outside alone, holding a box of half-eat cream towers in his hand.
Qiu Qiu, who no longer ate and drank like before, made Bai Xiaoxu feel awkward, as if someone had treated him unfairly. Although Qiu Qiu explained to him the current situation, Bai Xiaoxu had difficulty accepting it.
"Why are you staying there alone?" Bai Xiaoxu said, and stood up.
"Don't go," Doug stopped him, "Let him stay for a while. As a man, he always needs some time to be alone with him."
Bai Xiaoxu: "...what are these sour words?"
"Besides, for him, it should be a happy person to miss someone like this without distraction." Doug said.

Royal Court, underground, training room.
The console issued a mechanical female voice, reporting the final results of the battleship that had just completed training.
The score was accurate to two decimal places, breaking the trainer's personal record. The console set the praise and encouragement for this, and a song "Ode to Joy" echoed in the rest area.
"Swish--" Jiangzhu took off her protective gear and after Zhong Yu stepped into the lounge, she whistled happily at him.
"Oh, today I'm pretty." Zhong Yu was sweating and pulled a towel and wiped it.
"You always say this. Actually, I don't even remember anything I've worn." Jiangzhu put up her slightly wet hair, tied her ponytail, and walked up to Zhong Yu, "Will you have any later? Have a drink?"
Zhong Yu shrugged: "I can do it, let's go."
This was not the first time the two of them had been drinking. After training, they were so tired that Jiangzhu had no intention of dressing up again, so they went to a nearby bar together.
Although the people who came here were insiders, the atmosphere of the bar was very popular. Zhong Yu and Jiangzhu chose corners with few individuals, and the lights were dim, so no one paid attention to it.
"I heard from the judge that you haven't even had much vacation lately?" Jiangzhu lit a glass of strong wine.
"It's not a special reason to go on vacation, and it's not like you, so you have to find an opportunity to go back to your jurisdiction." Zhong Yu casually pressed the menu and said, "And I wasn't busy at first. I'm having a meal with you and having a drink with him. I feel like I've gone in a week."
"Where can you eat with me?" Jiangzhu was jealous and turned her face away. "I see, you have six dinners a week, and you have eaten with the Supreme Court."
Zhong Yu said really, there was no one.
"There are no six, but five." Jiangzhu said, "Do you have anything to the Supreme Justice? I'll give up if I told you earlier, so I won't bother you."
"What awkward thing?" Zhong Yu poured her wine, "Today, you can choose what you want to play with."
They couldn't play anything in the bar, so the two of them asked for a chess game and sat there and talked.
The skills of Jiangzhu chess are OK, but the chess quality is so bad that you have to regret chess, and you want to cheat. You can play more than half an hour.
It was already midnight at the end. Jiangzhu was so drunk that she was taken away by her subordinates who had been found. Zhong Yu was just a little excited and returned to his residence alone.
...
Zhong Yu's figure was very conspicuous during surveillance.
When he passed through the garden corridor, he had to switch camera points, and the painting paused for two seconds for a short time and had a clear angle turn.
Ye Wenyu, who was working, caught a glimpse and looked up and asked, "Has the chess finished?"
"It's over," said the assistant, "General Jiangzhu has been taken away by his subordinates, and Wang Zheng returned to the living room alone."
Ye Wenyu nodded, continued to sign two documents before looking up at the surveillance monitor again.
"Has he not been to Eden for a long time?" Ye Wenyu asked.
"I have been there twenty-seven times since I logged into Eden last time." The assistant looked through the information, "In the past three months, he has only logged in to Eden in total."
"So good, so good." Ye Wenyu got up and looked at the surveillance monitor obsessively.
The assistant was quiet for a while and suddenly said, "Mr. Ye, I am frank. Three months ago, Wang had contacted low-level cadres of the old party, which was our verified information. He should have heard many rumors that were not conducive to us. On this basis, why did he not continue to actively contact the old party, but instead reduced the frequency of logging in to Eden?"
Ye Wenyu thought for a while and said patiently: "Do you think that his character is more inclined to support his old party?"
The assistant sweated slightly and bowed: "No..."
"It's not unreasonable that you think so. Wang is a complete hero. No matter what action we take before he loses his memory, he will not get his support." Ye Wenyu said slightly, calming his assistant a little.
"But there is one thing you can't forget. No matter how powerful he is, he is still a human being, and he will have human instincts."
The assistant listens intently.
"Humans will instinctively avoid things that make him feel pain." Ye Wenyu said, "Do you think that when he knows that the planet he once lived in has died, there are millions of people, but he is the only one who lives, he will be very angry and want to find the culprit?"
The long-haired man picked up the cup and gently turned on the tea leaf floating on the water.
"...He may have done it before he lost his memory, but now, once he does such a behavior, it means he may have to contact more painful reality."
"He may gradually get to know the dead, and may realize that he is not so glorious or powerless in this disaster, and he will have to be blamed for not being the guilt he committed."
"Human instincts will prompt him to escape, and as long as he does not contact, he can gradually forget... and reality proves this."
Ye Wenyu pointed to the surveillance camera: "Look, he has really had more time to stay in the royal court."
The assistant said respectfully: "Mr. Ye, I understand."
Ye Wenyu bent his eyes happily, stared at Zhong Yu in the surveillance camera and returned to the room, shut down,
The painting was interrupted, and Ye Wenyu said to himself: "Do you feel that he is close to me?...Our relationship has improved again, king..."
As he said that, he yawned and stood up: "I'll go to bed too. I've been in the middle of the night and my body seems to be almost at its limit..."
Just then, a harsh alarm sounded suddenly.
Ye Wenyu was so sleepy that he couldn't react for a while.
"…What alarm?" He looked at the assistant blankly.
The assistant operated quickly in front of the main console and suddenly his face turned pale.
"Mr. Ye, there is a signal." The assistant said, "...is the signal of unknown bodies entering the Alliance detection area."
"Hmm?" Ye Wenyu said, "What body, orbital danger? Can't it be removed?"
“…………”
The assistant was reluctant to speak, and Ye Wenyu finally frowned.
"Say." He said.
