Chapter 44: Ah, goodbye, friend
Chapter 44 of the journey of Xilin, Volume 3, Goodbye, Friend
Political negotiations between the federal government and Qinglongshan have largely ended. There was a broad consensus between the two sides. This handshake in front of the Parliament Hill is possible.
All political prisoners held in prison were released. The exchange of prisoners of war, accumulated over seven years, has long been completed. Only some of the issues involving the George Carlin Youth Army are still being debated.
The federal government in the past few years. has always accused Qinglongshan of moving young people through kidnapping and brainwashing. And the signs of 300 disappearances were aimed at the other side. In negotiations. The government demanded that the Qinglongshan ** army immediately hand over these youths. Let them return to the warmth of their own homes. Qinglongshan, on the other hand, insisted that it had entered the mountain voluntarily all these years. They were inspired by the ideals of George Carlinism and the ** Army. then resolutely left his family.
Because there are a lot of angry parents involved. So the federal government did not make clear concessions in the negotiations. But these small differences will not stop the entire federation from calling for unity. Resist the turbulent tide of the empire. Negotiations are continuing. Elsewhere, it has already begun to develop in a good direction.
Before this historic handshake. ** The army has accepted the peace plan proposed by the government. The leader of the South Water rejected the offer to serve as Honorary Speaker of the Federal Management Council. Even Mr. Byron's extravagant and far-sighted offer of the vice-presidency was coldly rejected. He chose to go into seclusion in Aoyama after the negotiations were over. However, it was agreed that a considerable part of the ** army was reorganized into a government army.
This part of the ** army will be included in the First Military Region. In the very short future. Plunge into the front line of the Xilin Region. The leaders of the South Water and the ** Army-Committee firmly believed. Only then will it be possible to send a sufficiently clear message to the entire federation. Qinglongshan is willing to reconcile with the government. Not because of any political or interest considerations. Just to resist the bloody aggression of the Imperials. It's not just rhetoric, it's something they're going to do.
......
......
It's different from last year's presidential election. Hsu was ignorant of the political vicissitudes at the top of the Federation. During those hours. He was kept in a black prison. Or to train officers in the kithri. The reason why he sits in Charter Square today. It's because he's waiting for good news he's been waiting for a long time.
Through Kithri's training exercises, he proved his existence to the upper echelons of the federal government. The relevant departments are in front of his persistent application. Finally softened his attitude. Of course. What's more critical is that the current climate of federal politics is early this morning. The presidential residence finally issued a tripartite signed amnesty document signed by the President of Pabul, the Minister of Justice, and the Minister of Defence.
There will be a sea of people in front of the mountain. Charter Square was quiet and lonely. Xu Le squinted his eyes at the instant picture on the light curtain and listened to the thunderous applause and President Pabul's firm and powerful words in an instant.
A dark green military vehicle drove up from the western Mount. It is about 20 meters away from the bench where Xu Le is located. I couldn't go any further, because I don't know when this corner of Charter Square was. Suddenly, there were several more calm and powerful men, and they stopped in front of Xu Le. Stopped the military vehicle.
Leave the start of the leave of the base. The seventh group left six people by Xu Le's side as security forces. Although Xu Le is the top supervisor of Group 7. But the Ministry of Defense's arrangement is still a bit surprising. At this time, a few men stopped the military vehicle. It was the armed members of the Seventh Group headed by Xiong Linquan.
Lan Xiaolong appeared behind Xu Le's chair. glanced at Xiong Linquan's gesture. Nodding. Attached to Xu Le's ear, he said, "No problem. ”
Xu Le shook his head. Walk over there. said: "The amnesty decree has come down. There is no way for the government to go back on its word. Besides. As long as they want to repent. Why tease me. ”
"This is the order of the Ministry of Defense. Your safety is at the heart of everything we do. Lan Xiaolong shrugged. After him, he said, "Say it again." Your friend is no ordinary person. Who knows if there will be any surprises. Be careful. ”
Right now. The dark green side door of the military vehicle opens. A man stepped out of the car. His cheeks were pale. Strands of hair are in the autumn wind. There are those peach blossom eyes and that beautiful and handsome face. It seems that he has not been worn away by the nearly year-long prison life.
After the handsome and haggard man got out of the car. Glancing up at the sky. Ignoring the lively news on the light curtain behind him. Took a deep breath. Squinting his eyes is extremely intoxicated.
Look at this scene. Xu Le silently quickened his pace. Walked over to him. In my heart, I thought about the breath from the Xishan compound. It is said that the government is negotiating with the ** army. There was no such arrangement. It's the legendary leader of the ** Army's intelligence. The conditions were personally presented to the director of the FBI of the government. If not. Probably this guy will continue to be locked up.
Last time, the two sat in a pool of Made's blood, smoking and listening to the bells. It's been almost a year.
The federal government relaunched the Medellín project two months ago. The seed of this empire. Old spicy MP. There was no peace even after his death. Gradually, the Federation stripped off the shiny coat outside.
Medellín died. Medellin stinks. handkerchief
became president. Nanshui came to the capital. The Great Reconciliation of the Federation. I heard that a few days ago, Lin Yuanhu, president of the Bang Academy of Sciences, died quietly. The world is always changing so fast. Quickly let the people in it have no time to feel the relationship between the sea and the mulberry field. I realized that the position I was standing in was no longer what it used to be. The dark green military vehicle drove away silently. The state government's amnesty was far from silent. No one wants this kind of political deal to be exposed to all the public.
Xu Le walked in front of him. Squinting his eyes, he looked up and down. He took out a pack of Sanqi cigarettes from the jacket pocket of his military uniform. Race one into the thin lips of the withered square. Carefully block the wind with your hands. Seriously ignited.
Sizzle. The fire on the cigarette butt shines brightly. Receded as swiftly as the twilight of a fire in a field.
Shi Qinghai took a deep breath. Squinting. Frowning. It seems painful. Seems to enjoy. But he was silent for a long time. After a few moments, he removed the cigarette butt from his lips. handed it to Xu Le.
Xu Le took it. I also took a hard bite. Choked and coughed several times. In a slightly hoarse voice, he said, "Thin, son." Other than that, nothing has changed. ”
"That's nature. Shi Qinghai looked at Xu Le in front of him with a smile and said, "What kind of character am I, master." You should know better than all. ”
"Five months in black jail. How did you get through it?" Xu Le handed over the cigarette. Giving himself one from the cigarette case was his biggest concern. When he was in the Fox Fortress. There are old things to talk to him with. played a love action movie for him, but how did Shi Qinghai survive those cold and silent years alone?
"Yes, I'm a professional. Shi Qinghai smiled, but he laughed a little hard. Probably he didn't want to remember that dark time. After a pause, he continued: "I haven't suffered much in the past few months, probably after your amnesty...... Actually. Sir, I also exhibited a few acquaintances in the black prison of the fox fortress. ”
"You're fiercer than I am. Xu Le said seriously.
The autumn breeze is rising. In the quiet chapter square, there was only the sound of Pabul's speech in the light curtain. And the two men whispered.
Lan Xiaolong, Xiong Linquan and the other six people stood around not far away. Vigilantly watching his surroundings. The conversation between Xu Le and Shi Qinghai was clearly heard in his ears.
At this point they probably understood. Happy in the classroom, the self-proclaimed master. I should have learned it from this man. In their opinion, though. Graduated from the first place in the first place. A show spy who walks between the government and the ** army. Assassinate the cattle men of Medellín. Calling himself a master. Very qualified.
"In the days of being imprisoned. I've always thought if I could come out. Be sure to meet someone. Guess who?" Shi Qinghai had already lit the second cigarette. Squatting on the side of the street said.
Xu Le also squatted down. Ying said: "I don't think it's me." ”
"You're not good-looking. Shi Qinghai smiled slightly. The peach blossom eyes that fascinated all beings gradually bloomed in the autumn wind. A trace of intoxicating longing and yearning.
"I've made arrangements. Xu Le said in a low voice: "She came to see you at night." ”
......
......
In front of the Xishan compound, it is also a bleak autumn breeze. The soldiers standing guard at the gate and the iron-blooded aura of this compound. Let this gloomy feeling become a little stronger.
Zou Yu is wearing a black trench coat today. A real flowing fire with a package in his arms. The cold look between her brows. Because of the change in the color of the clothes. And the obvious is particularly clear and stinging.
The minister's daughter's facial features always reveal a feeling called Mingyan. When it comes to pretty. It's so beautiful. However, no matter before and after. Whether it was the girl in red at the beginning. Or today's beautiful mother. Most of the time. There was always a coolness in her straight eyebrows. In front of Xu Le, she actually no longer deliberately plays a certain character. Just on occasions like today. She put the mask back on.
Xu Le stepped out of the black car. He smiled at her. The eye saw a hint of red on the neckline of her black trench coat. The kind of red that is so vivid that it is somewhat harsh.
The car started moving. Zou Yu sat in the passenger seat. Yu Yi didn't want to break the silence everywhere. The voice was extremely cold: "The family is going out to eat with you for me." Wait a moment when you pick me up. Don't say it's leaking. ”
"Just to meet the old people. Why do you have to go to war?" Xu Le said, looking ahead.
The black car was parked under a high-end apartment building in the southern part of the capital. Xu Le walked into the elevator with the child and Zou Yu in his arms. The elevator doesn't open until it reaches the top floor. Xu Le looked at Zou Yu who was walking towards the room. A warm feeling arose in my heart. Xiong Linquan, who had been guarding here, whispered a few words about safety.
He was about to leave. Zou Yu suddenly turned around. In an indifferent sentence, he said, "An hour later, I." ”
Xu Le was slightly stunned and nodded.
(Hmm.) There is another chapter later. I'm not in a hurry to say goodbye today...... )
