Chapter 138: Re-entering the Forest Garden
Xu Le entered Ewha University with a letter of recommendation from Professor Jin, but it seems that he himself does not know this. Steward Jin stood beside Mrs. Tai, like a pine on the shore of the lake, hidden in the mountains and rivers, without any traces, he said apologetically in a low voice: "I knew about this a long time ago, but because the young master has always insisted on not informing you, I ......"
So before she finished speaking, Mrs. Tai looked out the window quietly, slowly rubbing the small instrument that can produce blue light in her hand, and the entire federation, now she is probably the only one who can see the hidden wisdom inside from this small instrument, and the man behind this wisdom.
Steward Jin saw that Mrs. Jin didn't say anything, took a step back slightly, and stood in the shadow by the window, he knew very well the story between the Tai family and that Professor Jin, although he didn't know the true identity of Professor Jin, but he had served in this family for too long, and he could always feel some of Mrs.'s emotions.
"Send someone to the Donglin Region to investigate the incident in the 65th year of the Constitution. Mrs. Tai said softly: "This matter is too coincidental. ”
Steward Jin didn't know what the coincidence was, and Mrs. Tai didn't say anything. Now only President Sieg, herself, and some people from the Li family in Philadelphia know the true identity of the defected mechanic Yu Feng, and because of some stories from the past, she knows the identity of that person more than anyone else. From the beginning, Mrs. Tai didn't believe that person would die so quietly, but now she held the instrument in her hand that only he could make, and looked at the young man he recommended to Ewha University through the window, and her mood gradually fell silent, indescribably indifferent.
......
......
The black iron door slowly closed behind the car, and Xu Le sat in the black car, squinting his eyes, as if his thoughts were still in the lake and mountains of Mochou Houshan. Today, the wealth shown by the Tai family is not rich and noble, only the atmosphere of the country, the country is picturesque, and this picture seems to be in the mind of the lady.
Xu Le knew that after he came out of Mochou Mountain, his life would be different again, but he still stubbornly thought that he was just a small person, a commoner, facing the picturesque country, he did not have the slightest emotion, nor did he have too many inferiority complexes, but only felt a little depressed.
The black car walking between the mountain roads was very smooth and avoided the increasing number of mountains in front of it, gradually like the tourist trend of the loom, and Xu Le's hands were placed on the steering wheel steadily. This car is the one he drove before, and since the District Prosecutor's Office has ruled him not guilty, this black car naturally doesn't need to stay in the forensic department anymore, and Secretary Shen has already helped him get it out.
"Thank you. ”
He suddenly smiled, turned his head and said to Zou Yu beside him. When he left Mochou back mountain, to his surprise, Zou Yu also went out of the mountain with him, he knew very well that after sending Zou Yu to the Xishan compound of the Ministry of National Defense the night before yesterday, this girl must have told Mrs. Tai the whole thing as soon as possible.
Xu Le didn't know that Mrs. Tai had begun to suspect the relationship between him and the uncle, he just thought that if the girl next to him didn't help provide analysis and judgment, and asked the Tai family to take action as soon as possible, then his son would be very sad, and maybe he would really become a fugitive from the federation again.
Zou Yu smiled self-deprecatingly, gently stroking her abdomen with her palm, her belly is already very big now, and the word melon ripe is gradually approaching the life of a young unmarried mother, and her face without makeup is slightly haggard and nervous.
Her feet were a little swollen, she was wearing a loose cloth shoe, and there was no longer the slightest cold light on her whole body, and there was only a hint of confusion in the tranquility. She slowly turned her head, looked at Xu Le's smiling side face, and couldn't help tilting her head, thinking curiously in her heart, what kind of material is this guy's nerves made of?
"The first time I saw my wife, I can still be so calm, Xu Le, you surprised me a lot. Zou Yu said.
Xu Le was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "Pretend." ”
Zou Yu also laughed.
Xu Le didn't say anything more, and drove the car intently, on the mountain road, the black car was not enough to fully trust, his eyes calmly stared at the mountain road that sometimes turned and sometimes detoured back, but his heart was thinking about something else.
He knew very well what kind of behemoth the Tai family was, and in front of this family, no one should expect the possibility of equal cooperation, even if he now had the only laboratory data in the Federation...... However, Secretary Shen nodded before, and the Tai family even gave up most of the benefits, which made him a little puzzled, the previous bargaining on the terrace, he just clumsily put forward his own request, but he didn't expect the other party to agree, why is this?
......
......
Late at night on the outskirts of the capital, black cars parked like ghosts in the parking lot of Lin Yuan. Xu Le and Zou Yu, who returned from Mochou Mountain, walked towards the restaurant under the leadership of the waiter.
After returning from the mountains and rivers, Zou Yu also invited Xu Le to walk in the famous scenic spots in the capital in the afternoon. He didn't know why Zou Yu, who had a high belly and swollen feet, had such a great pleasure and appetite, he squinted his eyes at the private planes that landed from time to time under the white cliff behind Lin Yuan, but he thought of those theories of George Carlin in his heart.
George Carlin has always believed that the core problem of the injustice of the Federation lies in the lack of openness of confidence, which is the so-called principle of hierarchical information asymmetry. Lin Yuan was originally a special restaurant for the Federal HTD Bureau, and was later purchased by the Lin family, one of the seven major federal families, and the HTD Bureau is responsible for enforcing the Wildlife Protection Law.
The people of the Federation didn't know about Lin Yuan, and even if they heard some rumors, they didn't know the specific details inside. In the Federation, as George Carlin said, from the very beginning, there was a loss of fairness between classes because of the asymmetry of information.
Stepping into Lin Yuan again, is he no longer the Donglin orphan and a federal fugitive? Xu Le took Zou Yu's hand and walked inside, but his mood was a little lonely and confused.
"Crazy Lee is back in Philadelphia, you don't have to worry about anything anymore. Zou Yu has lived in the Third Military Region since he was a child, and his family background is extraordinary, so he naturally doesn't know how Xu Le feels at this time, and said with a smile.
There is a nine-winding flowing water by the floor-to-ceiling window, flowing from the depths of the bamboo forest behind the table, sitting quietly on the side of the flowing water, sipping plum wine in the brown red mud cup, smelling the delicate fragrance of bamboo leaves in the water, and looking at the white cliff wall under the distant light through the window, it is a good enjoyment.
Similar to the first time they entered the forest garden, when the two of them walked into the hall, the eyes that were hidden behind the mangroves, bamboo forests, and pear trees cast their eyes seriously and curiously. Surrounded by these gazes, Zou Yu did not feel uncomfortable at all, but Xu Le's demeanor became a little more rigorous.
Sitting in the bamboo house with the best position, it didn't take long for someone to come over to greet them, and those eye-catching figures in the capital class said something to Zou Yu gently, asking her to greet Vice Minister Zou on her behalf, and finally nodded to Xu Le very politely, and left.
After doing this four or five times, no matter how sluggish Xu Le was, he also felt a little unusual. After being quiet for a moment, Xu Le was slightly relieved to make sure that no one came to disturb his meal again, or that the remaining guests in Lin Yuan tonight asked themselves if they had no identity to come to their table.
Zou Yu held a piece of stuffed jade shoots with the tip of his chopsticks, looked at him who was a little uncomfortable, and said with a slight mockery: "It's different from last time, these eyes are all looking at you." Those who come are not looking at me, but at you. ”
"The news spread so quickly?" Xu Le bent one foot and held a small wine glass in his hand, at this time there was no outsider to disturb him, his movements seemed much more casual, but this posture was a little out of tune with the elegant and extreme scenery around him.
The news he said naturally meant that Secretary Shen called for a young lieutenant in the Fruit Shell Research Institute, and only such news would let those people come over to talk to Zou Yu, but the real purpose was just to see what kind of person that young lieutenant was.
"There are no absolute secrets in the Federation, especially when some people don't want to keep it. Zou Yu shook his head.
"Madame asked you to take me to Lin Yuan again?" Xu Le raised his head, looked at Zou Yu and asked.
"Isn't it uncomfortable? You should know very well that everything is about rules, just like the case of Hushan Road and the matter of the research institute, you can catch loopholes, but no one will directly fight against federal laws. Zou Yu looked at him and said: "Catch loopholes but can't leave loopholes, the style of acting in this circle will never be too violent and direct, let alone ...... Take an axe and smash it. ”
Looking at Xu Le, who was thoughtful and had a hint of resistance between his straight eyebrows, Zou Yu was silent for a moment and then said quietly: "I know what kind of person you are, you really don't belong to this place, but since you chose to crash in, you must do things according to the rules." ”
She picked up a half-green and half-yellow bamboo leaf from the flowing water beside her, and quietly looked at the lines on the bamboo leaf, not knowing whether she thought of her own life or something else, and her voice became a little light.
"Not to mention the capital, Hong Kong, or other big cities in the Federation, there are many private clubs that are quieter and more luxurious than here, but they are all places for private gatherings, and only Lin Yuan is the place to show attitude. She put the bamboo leaves on the table and said, "If the bamboo leaves fall to the ground, they will be swept away and sent to the garbage dump for burial. ”
Xu Le turned his head, looked at the scenery outside the window through the glass, and said: "It's a pity that there is no wind, it's not refreshing enough, and the scenery here is not lifeless." ”
He thought of the mine pit in the Donglin Region, he and his uncle were eating bison meat, holding red wine, watching the red fall in the dusty air, falling on the green grassland, that kind of enjoyment is much stronger than this forest garden.
"Xu Le?" A voice of surprise and surprise sounded, and a young officer walked through the bamboo forest to the table.
Xu Le was slightly stunned, he didn't understand why Zhou Yu suddenly appeared here, and suddenly he thought that Zhou Yu was now in the Fruit Shell Engineering Department, his heart moved, and in a blink of an eye, Zou Yu was drinking something calmly with his head sideways. In an instant, he understood that the coincidence was not a coincidence, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotionally at Secretary Shen's quick and meticulous arrangement.
