Chapter 475: People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being fat
Early the next morning.
Yang Ming had woken up, but he was still reluctant to let go of Mimili in his arms. He continued to doze with his eyes closed, rubbing his fingers gently on her smooth skin.
Mimili was sleeping soundly.
Before meeting 'Uncle Hamton', she had already changed her clothes, covering up her skull tattoo, taking off her tight leather pants and studded boots, and putting on a pleated skirt and small cloth boots.
Of course, no matter what they wear, in the end they can embrace each other without any obstacles and be honest with each other.
Mimili seemed to feel that Yang Ming had woken up. Although she couldn't open her eyes yet, she touched the corners of Yang Ming's eyes with her fingertips and whispered something.
"What's wrong?" Yang Ming asked.
“Uncle, did the Sherman Empire hurt you?”
Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and hugged her in his arms, sighing softly.
"No, everything was planned. The insults and attacks against me were just part of the plan."
"That's good," Mimi Li said vaguely, "We don't need to suffer for anyone. This is what you taught me, uncle."
"Um."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Now is the time to lay out the net, and we will have to close the net step by step later. The Sherman Empire is too powerful. If we can't find the most core loophole inside, it will be difficult for us to shake this big tree from the outside."
"Just keep going, uncle," Mimi Li sighed softly, lowered her head and kissed Yang Ming's neck, "I have become a little unmotivated now. I am protected by you, and you gave me freedom, but I feel that freedom is just this much. I want more, and sometimes I despise myself for being like this."
"You are an independent individual, Mimili."
Yang Ming said in a gentle voice:
"We are in a relationship because we are attracted to each other. I like your body, your eyes, and your soul."
"Then will you support me in mechanically transforming myself?"
"Uh, this..."
Yang Ming looked down and saw a pair of sparkling eyes.
He burst out laughing:
"Your own body, you can make your own decisions, but you are already perfect now, why do you have to mechanically transform it?"
"To become stronger," Mimili said seriously, "this is my wish."
"Isn't your wish to be free?"
“Power is the guarantee of freedom.”
"Okay," Yang Ming smiled, "Then can you agree to one of my requests?"
"What?"
"Wait until your father passes away before mechanical transformation. He can't accept it. His ideas are still very conservative," Yang Ming said in a gentle voice. "Although I secretly gave him telomere drugs, overall, his body can't hold out for too long."
Mimili's expression was a little gloomy, then she smiled and sighed: "Okay, I will respect your opinion."
"Well, good boy... do you want to do it again?"
"Oh, please let me rest, uncle, you are an ancient god life form, and I am just an ordinary person."
"All right."
Boss Yang stopped moving his hands with regret.
Mimili laughed, rolled away in Yang Ming's arms, wrapped herself in a thin blanket, and winked at Yang Ming.
"We are a pure uncle-nephew relationship, uncle."
The corners of Yang Ming's mouth twitched slightly. He lay there with his eyes spread out, and began to think about some big interstellar things in his mind.
After a moment.
Mimili hummed a song as she went into the bathroom. Yang Ming put on his clothes and sat on the sofa on the balcony, admiring the starry sky at the end of the cylindrical settlement.
The city is like a kaleidoscope, which is also a local wonder.
“Ahem!”
Xiaolu started summarizing information every morning.
The Empire is in further chaos, with nobles being besieged on a regular basis, but the conditions for entering the second stage have not yet been met.
The Luofeng Alliance is functioning well, and several new policies that are favorable to interstellar investment have attracted a large amount of interstellar wandering capital. How to prevent capital from influencing the government is a major challenge.
"Boss, the vice president of the Guell Alliance Free Agreement Chamber of Commerce is on his way here. They have already started sending people to investigate the status of Mr. Hatton and General Yang Ming in the Luofeng Alliance."
“Is the efficiency so slow?”
Yang Ming drank the refreshing drink brought by the mechanical maid and let out a soft sigh.
“Let my first mate contact them first and see what they are up to. I will continue to target Professor Hua Moli.
"Now we have a week."
Lu said softly: "Actually, there is another question."
"What's the problem?"
"The senior agents of the New Federation are also rushing here," Lu sighed, "We almost forgot before that Yang Ming has a blood feud with the New Federation. The senior officials of the New Federation are very petty and they are probably going to cause trouble for you again this time."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Come on then, am I afraid of them?"
"The key is that you can't show too much fighting power, that's the problem itself."
"Well," Yang Ming thought for a moment, "At most I can just beat them up again. Help me prepare some light firepower in advance. We can't show too much individual strength, so we can win with firepower. Yang Ming is also a very capable fighter."
"Okay boss."
Lu ponders quietly in the thinking space.
Light firepower... What is the current limit of firepower for a single soldier in the Milky Way civilization? Energy mines?
…
Yang Ming spent the next three or four days "complaining".
Because they have to cooperate with the local police in the investigation, Yang Ming and Hua Moli are temporarily unable to leave the space settlement. There are not many entertainment activities available, so they can only go fishing, look at beautiful women, eat delicious food, visit men's custom suit stores, take photos with a group of men and women who come here to visit... and so on.
Yes, I came here because of its reputation.
When it comes to the Guel Alliance, it used to be labeled with stereotypes such as "weird folk customs", "political correctness", and "because of interstellar isolation and no genetic locks, they can grow freely".
Yang Ming originally thought that stereotypes were a kind of low-end discrimination and regional discrimination;
But after his experiences in the past few days, he was really deeply touched by the "weird folk customs".
There is some truth to the fact that this has become a stereotype.
In order to attract the attention of the Guel Alliance officials, he used the identity of a general of the Fallen Wind Alliance to make the previous news;
At the same time, news spread that Mr. Hatton, an energy tycoon of the Luofeng Alliance who had close ties with the royal family of the Luofeng Empire, was traveling in the Guell Alliance and rescued Yang Ming who was arrested for visiting a brothel and a professor whose specific name was unknown.
At the beginning, the news was not very popular. After all, Yang Ming just wanted to tell the Guell Alliance that he and energy tycoon Hatton were traveling here.
But what happened next was something Yang Ming never expected.
At the beginning, several female internet celebrities contacted Yang Ming and said they could provide him with free guided activities and hinted that they could accompany him for free.
Soon after, a TV station took the initiative to interview him. The list of questions they asked was full of questions to guide Yang Ming to praise the quality of the local sex industry.
Then, an organization called the Union of Sex Industry Practitioners announced its protest against the local police's arrest of their important guests, demanding that the local police station apologize for smearing the image of the alliance and for the important foreign guests. A demonstration by dozens of sex industry practitioners broke out, triggering a new round of online popularity.
That parade held up Yang Ming’s photo;
In the past few decades, Yang Ming has never felt that he has had such an embarrassing moment.
If these were still considered normal, then Yang Ming didn't know how to describe what happened in the next two days!
Some so-called Güell League experts jumped out and said that "this is a bullying of administrative power", "a huge harm to foreign guests", and "a heavy blow to the local tourism industry".
Anyway, no matter whether they are right or wrong, as long as they criticize the authorities, they can bring fame and benefits to these experts.
Then, several entertainment programs with partisan backgrounds began to make a fuss about this incident, and began to dig up the battle of Ilando Star where Yang Ming ordered the artillery fire, telling the citizens of the Guel Alliance the history of the New Federation's failure.
——The Guel Alliance is in competition with the New Federation in many areas.
Entertainment shows became a catalyst;
After the show was broadcast, several hot searches landed on the alliance’s famous women’s portal website, and half of the hot searches were discussing Yang Ming’s appearance.
Yang Ming considers himself not very handsome, just above average in appearance, yet he is hyped up as having 'eyes that are still pure after being on the battlefield', 'eyes that have ideals and persistence', and 'exuding a wild beauty that is very different from the packaged stars'.
"I can go to yours."
For the first time, Boss Yang had the urge to bully the weak.
He doesn't know how to ride a horse or herd sheep, so he still has the beauty of wildness.
Yang Ming just wants to go to the streets and shout: Workers are the most beautiful!
The four sex shop workers who accompanied Yang Ming and Hua Moli that night also received good attention and praised them lavishly in interviews, saying things like...
"General Yang Ming was a very gentle man. He didn't do anything to us. He just asked us to dance, drink and chat together. He was also very concerned about our living conditions."
"General Yang Ming is very generous. This is the jewelry General Yang Ming gave me, which symbolizes that beautiful youth is fleeting."
"I joined the hostess industry because of my hobby, because it makes me feel happy and joyful, and I can also taste various drinks for free. More importantly, it gives me some opportunities to interact with outstanding talents and enrich my life experience."
"General Yang Ming was probably pulled over by another unimportant guest that day... He didn't cross any line... Yes, he didn't touch my body, and when I wanted to have some physical contact to help the guest relax, he would be a gentleman and avoid it."
"General Yang Ming's singing voice... is very pleasant to the ears, and is already at a level that is suitable for a professional debut."
etc.
Mimili, who had been hiding in the hotel eating melons, fainted from laughter twice.
With Boss Yang's hoarse voice, singing like that would be disrespectful to the song itself.
The most bizarre thing that Yang Ming found was that the police station that had arrested them actually apologized.
But the police department still maintained its last bit of face and did not revoke the administrative penalties against Yang Ming and an unknown professor. They only said that they did not verify the content of the report.
Therefore, Boss Yang quickly gained a group of fans in the Guell League.
In recent days, whenever he appears on the street, a large number of reporters and fans will surround him, which makes him feel disgusted.
Boss Yang is really...
However, there are some good news.
First of all, the relationship between Yang Ming and Professor Hua Moli is getting warmer. Professor Hua Moli feels guilty that the news only reported Yang Ming's affairs. He keeps wanting to invite Yang Ming to dinner and even takes the initiative to invite Yang Ming to continue his vacation on the planet where he works.
Yang Ming did not agree directly.
——Avoid arousing Professor Hua Moli’s suspicion.
However, if Professor Hua Moli mentioned it again later, he would definitely agree with reluctance and go to the research institute to try his luck.
Kolev's contacts with representatives of the Union Chamber of Commerce went smoothly overall.
The Guel Alliance sent a clear signal that it wanted to express its support for the Fallen Wind Alliance by investing in the Fallen Wind Alliance, strengthening trade cooperation with the Fallen Wind Alliance, and sharing technology.
They also have conditions, that is, the Luofeng Empire, the core member state of the Luofeng Alliance, must draw a clear line with the Empire under appropriate conditions.
Kolev did not hide anything, and in the process of contacting with the representatives of the Alliance Chamber of Commerce, he took the initiative to show his good relationship with Emperor Edwang of Luofeng, implying that he was just a "sentinel". Later, if the Gu'er Alliance could show enough sincerity, they would definitely send a formal diplomatic mission to visit the Gu'er Alliance.
The Chamber of Commerce representative had already received the answer he wanted and left overnight to rush back to the first star.
As a result, a large number of intelligence personnel from the Guell Alliance were also gathered around Kolev.
Correspondingly, Lu also detected traces of the activities of New Federation intelligence personnel, and the New Federation CIA seemed to want to target Kolev.
Yes, Yang Ming was dealing with all kinds of gossip, fishing, chatting and enjoying delicious food with Hua Moli;
The elderly First Officer Kolev, bearing the risk of being attacked by the CIA, contributes his light and heat to the "Falling Wind Breakout Plan".
Mimili also got a new mission, which was to protect her old father's safety closely.
Yang Ming and Lu Ziran had anticipated the reaction of the Guell Alliance and the New Federal authorities, but it was obviously not the ideal result.
After dinner that day, Yang Ming finished his personal chores and washed and dried his hands at the sink.
"Agents from the New Federation have surrounded this restaurant."
Li's voice suddenly sounded:
"You're making too much noise, Ming.
"I know you want to use this opportunity to achieve some political goals, but you should prioritize executing the instructions I give you now."
"Did this delay anything?" Yang Ming asked back.
Boss Yang smiled and said, "Professor Hua Moli and I are getting closer and closer. We are almost sworn brothers. It was your idea to go to the brothel and get arrested and taken to the police station. Moreover, you did not suppress public opinion and control the speed of news dissemination in the first place."
Li groaned for a few seconds and said, "I was in a semi-asleep state before."
"And now?"
Yang Ming looked at himself in the mirror, then stared at the door behind him through the mirror, his nose twitching slightly.
He asked softly:
"What can you do for me now? For example, disrupt the other party's communications?"
"My computing power is not concentrated here..."
"Li, you make me feel something is not right."
Yang Ming smiled and said:
“When we were in the Empire, you performed perfectly, being able to manipulate all the warships and all the thresholds of the Empire at will, allowing me to slip out of the Empire from the Imperial Star as if I were entering a no-man’s land.
“But after leaving the empire, your influence on the online world has become...even worse than Labdo’s.
"That doesn't make sense, Rhys."
Li said calmly: "I didn't make any arrangements in the Guel Alliance in advance."
"That's not right," Yang Ming shook his head slightly. "Lu told me two days ago that she detected a batch of servers that had hidden your mark. Several network service providers have buried some special backdoors."
"Yeah?"
"You are reasonable, right?" Yang Ming asked softly.
"I've told you before, I'm only part of the story. "
"Hmm," Yang Ming nodded, "Okay, we'll talk about this later. Now, I need to solve these little problems first."
Li asked: "You won't be exposed, right?"
"My assistant wouldn't ask that question."
As Yang Ming finished speaking, the bathroom door opened and the barrel of a laser gun was handed forward.
