The puppets' stage play

Chapter 322 Beautiful World

Defeated by the shocking reality and hit by countless revolving arrows, the burned-out lady still maintained her seemingly perfect posture until she returned home.

"..." His eyes were gray, his face was gloomy, and tired breaths came out of his mouth one after another.

"...It's over." She whispered, feeling extremely melancholy in her heart. How could everything happen so well that it ended up like this.

It was obvious that she didn't want it at all, but why didn't she refuse it properly?

"Have something to drink."

A cold touch pressed against his cheek, followed by a deep voice.

He took the canned tea casually, not bothering to look at the material it was made of. He touched one side with his fingertips, lifted half of the lid, and poured it into his mouth.

"Gu Gu Gu Gu... Bah, what is that?!" Xi Muran woke up suddenly. She pushed him away with a look of disgust and looked sideways at the man who was drinking tea silently.

"Clean your mind, calm your heart, and get rid of the anger." The man slowly put down the pure white tea set in his hand, and his extremely ordinary face looked here, a smile flashed across his mouth, "For you now, it is also It’s just right.”

"... Even I don't like the ones that I don't like very much." She frowned, continued to put it to her mouth, and took a sip. The strange taste that followed made her feel conflicted. He drank it all in one gulp.

"Ha--vomit." She covered her mouth to suppress the nauseating feeling rising from her throat, and then looked at the man opposite.

"I haven't come back very often recently. Did you find any interesting biological samples?" she asked with serious eyes.

She knew that this mediocre guy had always liked those various species, although she didn't quite understand it. After all, once this happened, the other person would not come back for a long time... It was heart-breaking. Hate.

"It can be considered a very rare sample. It gives people a sense of plausibility and can be used in many aspects. Therefore, it is rare for me to take it seriously."

The man took a few more sips, his eyes flashed with memories, and he said with a satisfied expression.

"...Yes." Xi Muran raised his face and looked at the neat ceiling. He cleaned it every day, not only there, but also other places.

"........." The space was suddenly surrounded by a sense of silence. It was as if there was an inexplicable barrier between the two people, and they were both silent.

While the man drank tea, his eyes wandered everywhere, and a hint of complexity flashed across his eyes. Do you value this place so much?

"Hey, let me ask you, what kind of relationship do we have? We are neither father and daughter, nor relatives. In fact, I don't even know your name. What kind of relationship is this?"

Xi Muran's voice was a little ethereal. She looked at the ceiling with a lonely face and asked the question that she had never dared to ask.

Why, will you help yourself?

Why do you work so hard to take care of yourself?

Why should you care about yourself, a stranger?

There is obviously no relationship between them.

"Guardian." Xi Muran looked there. The man looked calm and his eyes met hers. "As for the relationship with the ward, I am just a passer-by in your life. You don't need to care about my existence."

"I will be your assistant." Xi Muran's tone became very soft, but his eyes were fixed on the other person.

"...That's not a good choice. Isn't it good now? There are so many people looking forward to you-" The man was interrupted by the other party before he could finish his words.

"I don't care about those, they are all people who have nothing to do with me." Xi Muran said firmly.

"..." The man shook his head slightly and his expression became serious, "Just like you and me, they are not people who have no contact with you at all. Some people are looking forward to you, some are worshiping you, and you are not completely independent. individual."

"The most important thing is..." The man looked here with deep eyes, "This is also what I expect from you, Mu Ran."

Xi Muran's expression was slightly startled. This was the first time that the other party called his name. In the past, he always used his full name. Why?

"I've also thought about it. Maybe it would be a good ending to let you be my assistant, and with your talent, you must be able to assist me very well, because you are indeed excellent."

There was a nostalgic smile on the man's face, and he looked here with a very soft expression.

"But, Muran, this is not possible." His eyes became determined, and facing Xi Muran's dull gaze, his tone became strong, "People always yearn for the sky, even if they are bruised and questioned by others , will also be eager to fly.”

The man looked here deeply, with a strong will in his eyes.

"Relying on other people's words, giving up the desire to fly just because of other people's judgments, that makes people feel even more bitter. Try to flap your wings, try to look up, work hard and desperately, and accurately reflect the blue sky into your own eyes. Eye."

"Is there any scenery more beautiful than what you see with your own eyes?"

"So, you shouldn't stop here, you have to fly, fly as far as you can, and then get rid of that boring fate and let me see your glory."

The man smiled, his eyes brightening.

"In this way, I can proudly announce that that person is my dream, and none of you can catch up with her!"

Xi Muran silently looked at that person, the figure that seemed to be shrouded in light, and the gesture that spoke of ideals. For the first time, she felt that she had never understood this person.

"This is me, an ordinary man's dream." The man pointed at himself, his expression extremely calm, "So, can you realize my dream for me?"

"Hmph, since you said so." Xi Muran raised his nose with a look of pride on his face.

"Just sit in the chief position and watch my performance. Don't have an itchy nose when others praise me. I will laugh."

"Don't disturb me next. I want to study the next plan. Okay, let's work hard!" Xi Muran clenched her fists with a solemn look on her face. She rolled her eyes at him and walked straight to her room.

She understood why she didn't reject the other person. Perhaps, deep down in her heart, she was vaguely aware of the uncertainty in her relationship with the other person, so she subconsciously left a way out for herself.

However, there is no need now, she will fight with all her strength, leave everyone behind, and tell everyone the fact that this man is her extremely proud father.

At that time, she would make this 'fact' public in front of everyone!

Never allow the other party to refuse again.

Bang, the door was closed tightly.

The man withdrew his gaze, raised his body and fell on the soft seat behind him. He stretched out a hand, clenched it tightly, and then slammed it into the sky.

His lips moved slightly, and a flash of blue flashed in his black eyes.

"Anjia, you said that her future is worthless and she is just a 'mediocre' assistant, but I don't believe it, neither your words nor that future."

"You pay too much attention to the observation of the future, but you forget what is most important. People are not beings who are bound by one or two futures. If you want to move forward and work hard, the desire from the bottom of your heart will make people Transformation occurs.”

"And the future is not static. What you observe is just the mind that has not yet sprouted. But you cannot see the deeper future. No, you have ignored it."

"Because you are always 'right', those futures that are not so correct are cut out by you and directed to the future you recognize."

"She will prove that your 'protagonist' theory is just a false proposition."

Anli closed her eyes with satisfaction and fell into a deep sleep quietly.

In the office, the man with blond hair and blue eyes paused slightly, and glanced at the corner of his deep eyes in the air. Then he shook his head silently. He lowered himself and continued with today's work.

"The future will not change."

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door, and a young man with a straight face and a hint of nervousness in his eyes walked in. It was Ling Mao, who was a close servant. Although he looked calm and calm in front of outsiders, every time he came here, he would always have something in his heart. .

After all, what he was facing was the ruler of this huge country, and he was the only one he needed to be loyal to.

"How is it?" Anjia asked the other party without raising his head.

"The battlefield is currently in a stalemate. However, the head of the Gran family has received considerable attention and is in 'expand mode' and is being besieged. A secret report came from the frontline commander, proposing that idols be used to make up for the lack of combat power. "

"At the same time, at present, due to the fierce emotions among the people, it is not easy to rotate in order. However, if this continues, sooner or later they will face the full force and be easily defeated."

"The headquarters applied to activate the 'Hound' to suppress the opponent's offensive."

Lingmao said with a serious face. He was not unaware of the struggles hidden in the dark, but as a servant, he generally didn't need to pay attention to them, as long as he handled them in accordance with the laws.

"...That's it." Anjia paused his pen slightly and tapped the documents on the table a few times, but there was still no emotion on his face. "It doesn't matter, keep going, the back-up plan I prepared is about to appear. .”

He raised his face and looked at the attendant in front of him, showing a happy attitude.

"In that case, this war will be over, and you must be prepared. This will also be a test for you. In peacetime, under the premise that I don't say anything, keep your current position."

"That's what you should consider. For other things, you can take care of yourself."

There was a hint of warning in Anjia's eyes, and then he leaned down again and ignored this side.

"Yes!"

Ling Mao's expression was solemn, his back straightened, he responded in a deep voice, turned around, left here, and closed the door.

"Huh...war..." With his back to the door, his expression became complicated and he couldn't help but sigh.

"...I have to continue to work hard not to be left behind." He murmured in a low voice, his expression became determined, and he walked towards the distance.

Crash, clatter, the flying papers fell into a pile and were placed firmly on the table.

He put his white fingers in front of his eyes and blew in front of him. Then, he looked at the stack of documents, with a hint of sarcasm on his face that used to look a little frivolous.

"This is not okay, Minister Liang. If it is exposed, you will be finished. Ah, but maybe you don't care. The commander-in-chief of the new era...hehehe, it's really interesting. "

Mo Tao couldn't help but laugh, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

After expelling Miriam, Minister Liang took over the Department of Political Science and Law as a matter of course. Now that he is in charge of all the power, he naturally does not care about himself as a small clerk. At the same time, he has become proud and has lost the caution of the past. ,as a result.......

"However, if we turn it in now, that person probably won't be able to deal with the other party." Mo Tao whispered to himself, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, "After all, the commander is involved."

"The Ministry of Political Science and Law colluded with the Ministry of Military Affairs... This is not a good sign." He shook his head. Although he was relaxed on the surface, there was also a heavy feeling in his heart. It was a torrent that could easily crush him.

He recalled the strange expressions sometimes shown by other people in the Political and Legal Department, and felt a little suspicious in his heart. Perhaps most people were attracted by the prospect mentioned by the other party, so they supported the other party unanimously.

He even suspected that they were responsible for the attack on Minister Milian's logistics department not long ago. Of course, they would not take the initiative, but they could still 'inadvertently' omit information.

"Shiratori won't care about these things. After all, internal purges were originally the responsibility of the Ministry of Political Science and Law. Now they are more focused on defense against foreign enemies...so they can't point to that."

"And that attendant... is also being watched by many people. Even if he gets close, he probably won't gain anything."

"The major families and the meritorious people... don't know which side they stand on, and they have no way to ask for help."

"...You can only rely on yourself." Mo Tao reviewed the forces within the federation one by one and finally came to a conclusion, with a smile on his face.

"It's such a heavy responsibility, and maybe some people will accuse me of meddling in my own business, well, that's true." He cursed with a smile, but had no intention of stopping.

As for why.......

"Sure enough, it's because I'm a member of the Federation." Mo Tao said matter-of-factly.

Not because of the influence of others, nor because of how noble I am, just because I am a member of this federation, nothing more.

"Okay, let's get started. First, let's find some eye-catching 'big lights'." He made up his mind, picked up the information on the table, and put it in the bag at his waist, with a smile on his face. With a frivolous smile, he walked outside.

"The weather is great today!"

"Happy mood, happy mood, hahahaha!"

Mo Tao walked in the Department of Political Science and Law as if there was no one around, sometimes singing loudly, sometimes laughing, and just walked out of the door of the Department of Political Science and Law confidently and disappeared from everyone's eyes.

Everyone else is looking at this person with a crazy look, but...occasionally there are people who look at me with incomprehensible expressions, with scrutiny and analysis in their eyes.

They will not allow others to interfere with their plans. The general can be arrogant, but they must be careful, careful, and careful again to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy and completely defeat the attackers.

.....Speaking of which, the recent operations in the city seem to have been frequently interrupted, and the operational troops have repeatedly received secret reports of attacks. Could it be that someone has noticed it?

Thinking about this in his mind, the calm-looking male clerk put down his teacup, turned away his scrutinizing gaze, and continued to work, with a faint smile on his lips.

Soon, soon, soon, he will stand out and everyone here will look up to him. That is what he pursues.

Glory, reputation, oh, that kind of thing is not important, only power is everything. With the light of ambition flashing in his eyes, suppressing the excitement in his heart, he started an 'ordinary' day again.

As always, never changed.

Today's Federation is still a peaceful and peaceful day.

It's just... there's a hint of ripples.

"I regret to inform you." The woman in front of her had a mask on her face and a proper smile, facing the troublesome visitor in front of her.

"You have lost the election. The election of new idols has been completed and your relevant training is over. Of course, you can also retain this qualification as a bargaining chip for the next election. We look forward to your coming again."

Xi Muran's mouth twitched as he looked at the reporter in front of him, with a complicated and inexplicable feeling in his heart.

I have obviously tried hard... I should have tried very hard, but why did I still fail?

"Why?" She looked at the other person unwillingly and asked again, while the people at the other windows looked at this as if they were watching a good show.

"Why..." The reporter's smile was a little forced. He tried his best to suppress the impatience in his heart. He looked at the other party with a hint of contempt in his eyes. He didn't even know why he was given up. He was really naive. .

"Have you not chosen another path? Then, as usual, you cannot participate in the final campaign. Unfortunately, we cannot help you."

The informant tried his best to inform the other party in a calm tone, but felt a little speechless in his heart. He had obviously entered the final screening, but the senior management saw traces of other paths and was rejected. Such a stupid...naive guy, she is also First time meeting.

"..." Xi Muran opened her mouth wide, but could not utter any words to explain. Looking at the mocking looks in other people's eyes, she left the window dejectedly and sat down at the waiting position in the hall. She couldn't help but feel heavy. A sigh.

"Alas..." How should I explain it to my father? Xi Muran was melancholy in his heart.

On one side, a sigh came from the same voice.

She turned her head and saw a man with a melancholy expression. By the way, his face was very ugly. She didn't like it very much and wanted to kick him.

"Alas..." Why was there no one who was taken advantage of? Mo Tao was disappointed in his heart.

He turned his head, and it was a woman with a melancholy face. By the way, for some reason, just looking at that face, he had the urge to beat her up, maybe because she was indebted.

"Alas..." The two of them lowered their heads again and sighed, then raised their heads almost at the same time and looked at each other.

Maybe he can give this guy a slap in the face to vent his anger, Xi Muran thought.

Maybe this guy can attract attention as the enemy, Mo Tao thought.

The two of them had smiles that looked fake at first glance.

"Hello, I am the idol candidate, Xi Muran." The woman smiled brightly, and there was a light all over her body. In short, she took the other person to another place first.

"You are the one, I am the clerk of the Department of Political Science and Law, Mo Tao." The man smiled modestly and politely, with a very clear expression. In short, let's find a place to talk first.

"You are very polite." Xi Muran was impatient.

"I feel the same way. Let's go and have a chat nearby." Mo Tao's invitation was really easy to deceive, he sighed in his heart.

"Okay." Xi Muran smiled like a flower. This guy is really not a good guy. He should be more careful.

The two of them smiled conspiratorially and walked into the distance.

Not long after, a rumor spread in the neighborhood. It was said that they were passing by a certain alley, but they heard someone's call as if they were in hell. They heard from it the emotions of deep despair and regret.

Then, at a certain moment, the sound stopped, and there was the sound of something being dragged inside. Passers-by suddenly shuddered and cowered.

Afterwards, the escort team investigated and came to a conclusion.

People passing by were suffering from hysteria, and the person who reported it was immediately arrested and sent to the medical center. Finally, doctors from the Department of Psychiatry there came to a conclusion.

Sick indeed.

This incident later became known as: The Night Crying Ghost Alley turned out to be an incident caused by a mental patient.

Written records were filed by the Ministry of Political Science and Law.
