Chapter 513 Lifelong Friends
On TV, Su Ming was holding a piece of paper and giving an alternative speech.
"Do you want me to have a chance encounter with someone who can kill me? Or do you want to create an encounter?
I'm sorry, that's impossible, because the people of Mystic Eye can't let their companions die, right? But in fact, the people of Mystic Eye are now dying.
The reason is simple. The person who gave the order was deceived by someone outside your organization, so he issued an order that would lead to your death.
Of course, he didn't think that was an order that would cost you your lives. After all, he didn't even know what he was doing and didn't understand what those instructions meant.
For example, during the Ice Island incident, I was wondering why so many people came to get killed, and then I thought about it carefully and realized that this was the reason.
As for the method to crack it... I already know it. I will make it public. In this way, can you still continue to give orders?
Do you know how many of your companions died because of the orders you issued?"
Dax and Ding Yao stared at the TV, completely confused.
After being stunned for a long time, Dax came back to his senses and turned to look at Ambrose blankly.
"Is what he said... true?"
"It's fake. It's just a strategy to shake the morale of the army." Ambrose said, "If he says this, the Mystic Eye will lose trust and become a group of scattered sand. Then he can defeat them one by one."
Dax lowered his head and thought for a long time before raising his head again.
"So what should we do now?"
"Leave it to me, I'll take care of it." Ambrose patted Dax on the shoulder as usual, stood up and left the office.
He left the office, took the elevator down to the laboratory and walked around, then immediately took out his cell phone and called his subordinates, telling them to prepare to retreat and leave this dimension.
When he made the call, he did not use the language used in this plane, because he was worried that there were some invisible people with mysterious eyes following him.
His plan was discovered by Su Ming, and now he had no chance of winning. If he continued to stay here he would only be killed by Su Ming. He would not do such a losing deal.
As for why he lied to Dax in the office just now, it was because he was afraid that after Dax knew the truth, he would attack him in anger in stealth.
Although Ambrose was confident in his own strength, his strength was of little use against an unknown force.
"What a pity, but it's not a surprise." Ambrose sighed as he looked at the blue sky.
It is indeed a pity that Su Ming could not be killed, but it is not worth regretting. If the person with the title of the strongest can be killed so easily, then the title of the strongest would be worthless.
…
Three days later.
"Where's Ambrose?! Where is Ambrose?!" Dax shouted at all the other general officers.
Ding Yao frowned and stood aside. After a while, he turned and walked out the door.
"Ding Yao, what are you going to do?" Dax called Ding Yao.
"Lord Dax, Ambrose has already run away. He can't do anything to Su Ming... We can't do anything to Su Ming either. This morning, I only managed to contact three general-level cadres, and the rest didn't respond. The three general-level cadres I contacted all said that they couldn't contact the hand-level members below. You can't possibly not know what this means, right?"
Dax opened his eyes wide and stood there in silence.
He understood what Ding Yao said.
A chain of suspicion has been formed. Members of the Mysterious Eye cannot harm each other. It is precisely because of this unbreakable rule that everyone is united and will obey the seemingly dangerous orders from the upper level without hesitation in such a desperate situation.
But after Su Ming's speech on TV, which lasted less than two minutes, the absolute trust that they were proud of was shattered.
Because no one knows whether the other party has been deceived by people outside the organization, no one is sure whether what they are about to do is really safe.
At this point, everyone can only try their best to ensure their own safety. We have really become a group of scattered sands, without any cohesion at all.
The other generals standing around glanced at Dax with some resentment, and finally shook their heads, gave up saying those unpleasant words, and instead explained their plans very practically.
"I am leaving too. The world is so big, I want to find a place to live in seclusion, change my face, and keep a low profile. I should have no problem living the rest of my life in peace. With the unknown power I still have, life won't be too difficult... Although our ideals are impossible to achieve, we still have many ways out."
"Me too, let's say goodbye."
"Me too."
"Me too."
Many generals and cadres around expressed their opinions one after another and left without looking back. The remaining ones who did not express their opinions were also worried, apparently considering their own way out.
Dax lowered his head, ashamed of what he was thinking at the moment.
Because he was not sad about the impending collapse of the Mysterious Eye. His inner thoughts were actually the same as those of his companion who had just left. He was also thinking about what it would be like if he changed his face and lived a quiet, low-key life away from the control of the Alliance.
The world is so big, Su Ming shouldn’t be able to find him, right?
…
After half a year, the world returned to peace.
Or rather, the world has returned to its original state, and it is not peaceful.
Ever since Su Ming resolved the incident on Sin Island, the people from the Mysterious Eye have not caused any more trouble. Suddenly, these people with incredible powers burrowed into holes in the ground like hibernating snakes and disappeared. Even Su Ming could not find them.
"This is the thing I regret most, that winning was too easy." Su Ming said at the dinner table.
The hot pot in the middle of the big round table was bubbling with steam. Colleagues were sitting around it, having a great time. Even Jiang Xueying seemed to be in a good mood.
Sylvie was sipping wine with a smile on her face, Jiang Yichuan was standing beside her, chopping meat with a kitchen knife and cooking, and then bringing the freshest food to the table for everyone to enjoy. Alice and Chu Xiaobai ate early and went back to their room to play.
Those who were still chatting and joking at the dinner table were all members of the Special Operations Department of the Seventh Investigation Bureau. Of course, Liu Lingshan was not there.
Ever since the Mysterious Eye incident settled down a little, she seemed to have returned to her previous state of having no free time at all, flying around the world and only returning to Dongyang Island twice in half a year.
Life became very peaceful, which made Su Ming feel a little uncomfortable. Even though the tasks he was doing now were at least A-level, and S-level was commonplace, these tasks, which were extremely difficult in the eyes of others, were nothing at all in his eyes.
Really...it's just like working a part-time job.
"Is there any news about the Mysterious Eye recently?" Sylvie suddenly asked.
Su Ming shook his head.
"It's okay, just look slowly. There shouldn't be any reborn among them. Even if you really can't find them, they will all be dead in a hundred years. As long as their numbers don't increase like you said, everything will be fine." Sylvie said with a smile.
"The number will definitely not increase, but the processing cannot stop." Su Ming sighed.
No one knows how Su Ming feels at this moment. Su Ming's task is to deal with these people with mysterious eyes, and then slowly wait for the appearance of the unknown demon he guessed. But now those people with unknown powers are hiding like mice and don't show up at all. Su Ming is not sure when his task can be completed.
"Sister, have some of this, freshly cut." Jiang Yichuan placed a plate of freshly cut beef in front of Jiang Xueying, but was glared at by Jiang Xueying.
"Minister, have the matters concerning those children been settled?" Jiang Xueying asked.
"It's almost done. It should be approved soon. But are you sure you want to adopt six children at once? You can send them to an orphanage. I can have someone take special care of them." Sylvie looked at Jiang Xueying with a smile.
"It's okay, it won't affect work."
"It's up to you."
Jiang Yichuang stood behind Jiang Xueying and glanced at her. He could more or less understand his sister's feelings at the moment.
Not long ago, she and he cooperated to destroy a cult stronghold established by Chaos Demons, killed the leader and most of the corrupted believers, and saved hundreds of families. Those parents who were bewitched by the cult will receive psychological adjustments from the Investigation Bureau and return to their posts, and their children will not experience the same tragic life as them.
Among them, there are six children who have lost their parents. Jiang Xueying wants to adopt them. Jiang Yichuang feels that she sees their past selves in them.
Although there is still no clue about finding the enemy, the six children should be able to distract their sister's attention to some extent. Jiang Yichuan hasn't seen such a gentle smile on her face for a long time. He thinks the arrival of those children is a good thing, both for them and for her.
There was suddenly a piece of beef in Su Ming's bowl, but the person who put the beef in his bowl was not Xia Xiaoyu.
"There is a beautiful place on the west side of the island. Let's take a walk after dinner to help digest the food." Flora gazed at Su Ming lovingly. Her eyes made Su Ming feel great pressure.
In fact, Su Ming knew what Flora meant. After all, Flora had hinted at him in many ways, such as using a special tone to express envy for the male and female protagonists in the movie while watching it, and praising him by analogy many times.
For example, someone invited him to dinner at home. Although Su Ming wanted to decline, the other party was in the name of a friend, and Xia Xiaoyu was very envious of Flora's cooking skills, so he had to go anyway.
Frankly speaking, Su Ming was very puzzled. Xia Xiaoyu had eaten all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, but he didn't know why she loved Flora's cooking so much.
Xia Xiaoyu's praise for Flora's cooking skills even made Su Ming suspect that Flora had added some illegal addictive drugs into the dishes.
Su Ming was very worried about Flora. He could feel that Flora really liked him, but he also knew that it was impossible for them to be together. This sense of responsibility that seriously affected other people's lives made Su Ming feel very sad. He felt that he needed to make things clear with Flora.
"Flora likes you very much!" Xia Xiaoyu fanned the flames.
Su understood her at a glance: "You seem to have no sense of crisis at all."
"Flora is a nice person." Xia Xiaoyu said.
"…Do you think I'll be fooled?"
"I don't mind at all. If it's Flora... I think it's okay." Xia Xiaoyu picked up the beef that Flora gave to Su Ming, dipped it in the sauce, and put it back in Su Ming's bowl. Then she stared at him seriously, "A threesome is not bad, and this kind of story is not bad either."
Su Ming was silent.
He knew that Xia Xiaoyu was serious, but he knew what kind of seriousness Xia Xiaoyu meant. She knew what he meant to Flora, so she knew what the consequences would be if she continued like this. She felt more pity for Flora, and what she had just said was a compromise based on this.
"Xia Xiaoyu, you are so naive. Your idea is an insult to Flora."
"What are you talking about?"
"You know what I'm talking about." Su Ming said, "I'll explain it to Flora later. She will understand. She's not that fragile."
After saying that, Su Ming turned to Flora and said, "Let's go and relax later, just the two of us."
Flora was slightly stunned, her expression a little surprised.
This was the first time that Su Ming agreed to her request so readily, but this did not make her happy. She seemed to sense something from Su Ming's words.
Flora nodded: "Oh."
…
After dinner, Flora took Su Ming to the west of Dongyang Island. She drove along the lakeside towards the suburbs. The stars in the sky were reflected on the rippling waves. The shining waves and stars cast a dreamy light on the car window. There was no light on in the car, and the light spots flowed rapidly on the windshield, like a dream.
Su Ming looked out the window and organized his words. Although he said he would explain things clearly to Flora, he had no idea how to say it specifically.
Flora's hands were on the steering wheel, a smile on her lips, her eyes looking forward, her green pupils showing a gorgeous luster in the darkness.
"I know. Although I don't know why it happened, we can be friends for life... The result is not that important. And don't underestimate my patience." She suddenly spoke.
Su Ming was stunned. Xia Xiaoyu, who was sitting in the back seat, was also startled. She stared at Flora's face in the rearview mirror with a blank look on her face.
Su Ming turned around and looked at the other person in surprise. She did not turn around, still holding the steering wheel steadily and looking at the edge of the island in the distance, with a smile still on her lips.
"Don't change my mind with a few words. I have always been stubborn, and I think that having no results is not meaningless. The process of waiting is very meaningful. I will not let go until you find another woman. I have endured for twenty years to gain freedom, and now I am willing to wait for you for eighty years... If you still haven't fallen in love with me when I am a hundred years old, then I will choose to be friends with you for life." Flora said slowly.
"Ah... If only I were a man, would she be a love saint?" Xia Xiaoyu let out a meaningful sigh.
She was genuinely touched and even really wanted a threesome.
Su Ming looked at Flora's profile for a while, and suddenly he relaxed.
In the short moment just now, he suddenly understood Flora and felt relieved.
This is probably what Flora thinks. Not every expectation has to become a reality. Sometimes just expecting it is enough for the person involved.
Su Ming couldn't empathize with this idea, but he knew that Flora desired it from the bottom of her heart.
If he was going to twist her will like this, then he would be a bad person. If he could really make Flora feel safe and satisfied, then he would try to get used to her gentle gaze.
"Really? I see."
