Xu Le didn't know it himself. Why did such a sentence be said. Zou Yingxing slowly raised his head. glanced at him. But he didn't say anything. Just put the glasses back on. Bow your head. Seriously began to review the document that needed to be reviewed by Mr. President.

Silence is sometimes an attitude. Xu Le did not believe that the deputy minister would not know the inside story of the incident at the beginning of the year. Tai Zhiyuan's whereabouts at that time were leaked by Zhang Xiaomeng. And Zhang Xiaomeng is from the office of the Medellín parliamentarian. However, the other party remained silent. That says a lot. He bowed his head a little tiredly. There was no goodbye. Silently turned away.

After he left the room. Vice Minister Zou raised his head again. He put down the papers in his hand. There were some mixed emotions floating in his eyes. The matter of the terrorist attack in the four states around the mountain. shook the entire Federation. Whether it's the FBI or the military. are secretly stepping up their investigations. The most important thing is that there are already some clues on the side of the Charter Bureau. It's just that he can't say anything to Xu Le.

"Still thinking about that little girlfriend......" Zou Yingxing gently stroked the gray hair on his forehead. smiled.

The matter in Linhai Prefecture has long been over. The lady had already calmed her anger. No one would lift the lid on that pot. Although that incident may have something to do with the office of the Medellín parliamentarian. But it was indeed Vice Minister Yang and those hot-blooded soldiers of the Second Military Region who really carried out the assassination.

What kind of thoughts does Congressman Medellín have in mind in this matter? No one can fully figure it out. If it is said that the Medellín parliamentarian is trying to deal with the Tai family. It doesn't make sense at all. The same is true of this terrorist attack. The old man was a man of great political wisdom. Make a mess of the Federation. Exacerbate the contradictions between the federal government and the ** army. It is not in the person's long-term interest.

Vice Minister Zou pinched his eyebrows a little tiredly. Xu Le, a young man, is calm. But after all, there are still too many young people's blood habits. It's too irresponsible to say it. But what will this little guy remind himself of this. Did he find some clues?

He closed his eyes. With a voice that only oneself can hear. He muttered to himself: "A soldier can have a mind." But the army must not have a mind of its own. Xu Le. You have to understand that. to become a real federal soldier. ”

Medellín is like one of the perfect political figures that has ever appeared in the history of the Federation. Always be able to get out of touch with all the dark accidents that happen at the front desk. Even if some doubt him. But in the face of his high moral qualifications. In front of those voters who supported him. Those people remained silent.

After Xu Le said that sentence earlier. I knew it wouldn't have any effect. The more big people are in high positions. At the time of giving an opinion. The more cautious you are. In the absence of tangible evidence. No one will have a biased expression of emotion. Vice Minister Zou's silence. It's a matter of course.

The secretarial officer had been waiting for him outside the door. Watch him come out later. Smile slightly. Led him to an office next to the annex.

The military boots fell on the soft red blanket. Not a single sound came out. Xu Le walked behind the secretary. Those stand on both sides of the promenade. Heavily armed guards. A silent and powerful salute. The military ranks are strict. A salutation scene seen along the corridor. made Xu Le feel a sense of respect that he had never felt before. He clenched his hands gently. Calm yourself down. Tell yourself it's just because you have the data in your head about mechas.

In that office. Vice Minister Zou's secretary officer took out a folder from the safe. handed it to Xu Le. He smiled and said, "This is a pass from the Ministry of Defense." There are also promotion orders. Questions about access permissions. When you first go. Apply with a pass. The other is. Your current personnel file is still in the husk for the time being. But it is subject to the dual jurisdiction of Guoke and the Ministry of Defense. ”

Xu Le took the folder and opened it. A quick look at it. See that there is a pass inside. A standard form letter for business. In addition, there is a pair of eye-catching epaulettes.

"Now in addition to the position of the third-level technical director of the Fruit Shell Company. You also have the corresponding authority as a technical officer at the General Assembly Base of the Ministry of Defense. It's just a captain, though. But the ministry specially approved. Gives you overflow permissions. ”

The secretary officer had a solemn face. Seriously explained: "Vice Minister Zou has ordered. He doesn't bother with your relationship with the Academy of Sciences. But since you don't want the other party to know that you participated in the development of the mecha for the time being. It is better to use less authority for the general assembly base. ”

Xu Le listened carefully. Since the secretary said it so bluntly. must be the trusted henchman of Zou Yingxing. He closed the folder again. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "If nothing is in trouble." It shouldn't be needed this year. ”

When talking. He took a quick look at the office. A military uniform was found hanging from a hanger. The epaulettes of that uniform indicate the owner of the uniform. Already a major. This office clearly belonged to the secretarial officer. Xu Le couldn't help but be a little surprised. Even if it's the personal secretary of the Minister of Defense. Few officers at the rank of colonel are so outrageous.

The secretarial officer noticed his gaze. He explained with a smile: "I followed Director Zou from the general assembly base. The rank boiled out. But there are no suitable positions yet. So I have been following the old chief. ”

Xu Le's heart moved slightly. knows that if Zou Yingxing can be in charge of the Ministry of Defense in the future. The secretary in front of him will inevitably soar. Swaggering. He had only been to the port capital four days earlier. Enter the Shell Engineering Department. Today, I got the promotion documents and related permissions from the Ministry of Defense. It was definitely done overnight. The secretary officer in front of him must have spent a lot of energy.

"What's your last name?"

"My surname is Jiao. You can call me Secretary Jiao. Of course, if you want. It's okay to call me Brother Jiao. The secretary was clearly a bit of a talker. It's not like a person who has been following the leader for many years.

Xu Le stretched out his hand. smiled and said, "I should call you sir." ”

Major Jiao shook his hand. He said very seriously: "I believe that if we can succeed." You will become the youngest major in the history of the Federation. ”

Walk down the annex of the Yunhou Hotel. There are already a lot of black official cars. Stopped in the garden. Just in the morning sun. Dozens of officers stood silently around the courtyard. President Sieg should not have arrived yet. But the bigwigs of the federal military should have been waiting in the hotel.

Xu Le lowered his head slightly. Squinting. He walked past the officers behind Major Jiao. These officers are not captains. It's the major. There are even a couple of lieutenant colonels. If placed on any other side of the Federation. These officers will inevitably be respected by the people. The jealousy of officials. Yet at this moment. The officers were around the heavily guarded Yunhou Hotel. It can only temporarily act as a bodyguard.

See this scene. I thought of the captain's epaulettes in the folder tucked under my arm. Xu Le couldn't help but laugh at himself. I was a little embarrassed by the faint excitement I had before. Become a Federal Military Mechanic Engineer. It is one of his two ideals since childhood. Now he is a technical captain in the federal army. And it also has the authority of the final assembly base. It is inevitable that there will be some satisfaction that the ideal will be reflected in reality.

At the entrance of the Yunhou Hotel. Major Jiao said something to the guards. Documents and warrants were presented. Turn around. He smiled and said, "You can go." ”

Leaning on Zou Yu's bedside last night. Worry frightened the little child who had just been born for a few days. The quality of Xu Le's sleep is actually extremely poor. Early in the morning, he was brought to the Yunhou Hotel. At this time, the mood is relaxed. I was a little sleepy. Morning sunshine. Through the green leaves of the large locust trees around the hotel garden. It has become a myriad of spots of light. A slight flick of the eyelids on his face. It's like hypnosis. So much so that he was stunned. only to react. Say thank you to each other. Walked out of the hotel door.

An off-road military vehicle was waiting for him outside the door. Before Xu Le got into the car. Subconsciously squinted back. Look at the officers in the hotel. Military vehicles. Feel the air filled with a solemn smell. My heart is moving. Know from this moment on. I was one of those officers.

The Fruit Shell Mobile Company is half military and half civilian. Xu Le was only a civilian second lieutenant. It is not included in the military combat list. War between the Federation and the Empire. Clashes between the government and the ** army. It doesn't have anything to do with him directly. However, as his importance to mecha research became apparent. And after being proven. The federal army will not allow such important figures. It is also on the fringes of the system. He had to be absorbed in advance. At this moment. Epaulettes and permissions in that folder. His new identity has been clarified. ---- he has turned into a real federal soldier.

Back to the hospital. Hear the crisp cry of a baby. Xu Lecai woke up from his previous solemn mood. He walked towards Zou Yu's hospital room. But he was stopped by several officers.

Xu Le was slightly stunned. I thought about the officer I saw in one day today. It's more than I've seen in the first half of my life combined. What the hell is going on with this god? I want to use these serious-looking colleagues. To remind yourself of your new identity?

The officers unceremoniously stopped outside the ward. The action is so taken for granted. It exudes an air of arrogance that can only be found on the battlefield. Proud soldiers or many defeats. But if it's not a winning division. Presumably, they will not develop such habits as soldiers in the army. Xu Le's brows furrowed. said: "Please let me go." ”

An officer recognized Xu Le. Thinking of the relationship between the other party and the eldest lady in the ward. Smiled a little awkwardly. Whispered, "I'm sorry. I didn't recognize it just now. Come in. ”

Xu Le looked at the officer with a somewhat familiar look. Seems to have been seen somewhere. I thought about it before I remembered. It was that night in the forest garden. The officer appeared to have come with the man. Since the other party stopped outside the ward. Presumably the man was in the room.

A faint sense of vigilance welled up in my heart. He pushed open the door of the ward and walked in. At a glance, I saw the lieutenant colonel officer sitting next to the hospital bed. Because the lieutenant colonel, though, was only sitting in a chair. But that tall, powerful body. But it made him feel like he was standing.

Look at the man's back like a hard bow that has broken open. and a slight hint of greenness between the side face. Xu Le's eyes narrowed.
