Chapter 8 Chapter Eight: The Bitter Owl in Love
Accompanied by Lawyer Dunanqi and Congressman Yuoka, Ling Duyu left the building of the Ministry of Defense where he was detained.
When Ling Duyu was escorted away on the street near the Explorer Building, the colonel's subordinates were all watching.
Lanzhi was shocked to learn of this, and immediately used his influence to rescue him.
The first is to inform two of my father's friends, Dunanqi and Yuoka.
The two men were respected men in the legal and political circles, and had always supported the Seekers.
Yuoka, as a member of the House of Representatives, personally called the president to put pressure on the Department of Defense, while Dunang used legal channels to directly ask the federal government for important people.
Laneige showed her true qualities as a strong woman. Through the media related to her late father and explorers, she simply made things worse. The FBI also fell into a very embarrassing situation in response to the abuse of power by the Ministry of National Defense.
Jin Tong is a man with a lot of friends and friends all over the world. Knowing that something happened to his friend, he cleverly used his influence to strengthen the pressure on the Ministry of National Defense.
So even though Jia Neng was very reluctant, when he found that the only evidence that could incriminate Ling Duyu had mysteriously disappeared from the computer, he knew that something was wrong, and his soul was scattered, so he had to obediently let him go. At that time, Dunan Lawyer Odd and Representative Yuoka had been waiting there for two hours in person.
Du Nanqi accompanied Ling Duyu to leave after expressing to Jia Neng that the person involved reserved the right to pursue human rights violations.
Ling Duyu thanked the two of them, and got into the RV where Lanzhi was waiting for him.
The car drove out, and the destination was Lanzhi's mansion in the suburbs.
Xiao Manzi threw himself into his arms, and scolded Jia Neng with a series of foul words that could make any man look at him.
Lanzhi said angrily: "Why do they do this? It's too much."
Ling Duyu smiled spontaneously: "It's true that they went too far, but it's not that they don't have chips in their hands. They were just destroyed by the 'savior'. If Jia Neng doesn't lose his job this time, he's lucky."
Then tell the story.
Lanzhi applauded the danger, but was furious, and said with a pretty face: "What is this? How dare you secretly take pictures of us. I will not let this matter go. Do you think we are criminals? That violates the right of privacy!"
Ling Duyu calmly analyzed: "From Jia Neng's tone, the matter is not simple. Those who support this matter behind may go to the level of the Minister of Defense or even the President. There should be ups and downs in the future. We must Be extra careful."
Lanzhi thought of the fire algae incident, it was still just the beginning, so she fell silent!
Ling Duyu caressed Xiao Manzi's soft and cloudy hair affectionately, and said relaxedly: "The problem of the bomber has been temporarily solved."
Xiao Manzi sat up from his arms and said happily, "What?"
Lanzhi also stared at him in disbelief.
Ling Duyu said: "It's here! Let's talk at the dining table!"
The colonel, Johnson, and Hawkeshen were all waiting for Ling Duyu's arrival in the house. Everyone beamed and had dinner together. When they heard that Ling and Chen found a submarine in the shipyard, they were all horrified, and when they heard that all the criminals were hiding in the submarine and forced them to blow up the submarine, they even bent over with laughter. Johnson, a long-lost comrade-in-arms, sighed infinitely: "If Mo Ge and the captain can gather with us tonight, how perfect and wonderful it will be." Thinking of the comrades who were brutally killed, even Xiao Manzi, who was supposed to laugh the most, lost her smile. Lanzhi asked about Shen Ling. Ling Duyu said: "This has always been our strategy. We will always cooperate with each other in the open and in the dark. We will never give anyone a chance to break through." The colonel gritted his teeth and said: "After the Russian gangsters are dealt with, it's Xiaofeng's turn." Johnson said coldly, "I'm going to stuff a bomb into his mouth myself." Ling Duyu said calmly: "Don't act rashly in this matter. Xiaofeng himself is rich and powerful, and has connections with gangs everywhere, but the most troublesome thing is the supporters behind him, including some Huozao who have direct interests. Countries and multinational corporations with conflicting interests. So unless we do nothing, we must pinch his vitals like a snake. This matter has been taken care of by another key member of our organization. She must have a way to obtain the most urgently needed information .” Hawk raised his glass deeply: "Come on! Let's have a drink for Xiaofeng's future!" Everyone toasted and drank.
After the meal, Lanzhi went upstairs to deal with the company's affairs, and the remaining few friends who had gone through hardships together and now fought side by side again gathered in the hall to chat. Ling Duyu pleaded guilty and avoided talking with Jin Tong on the phone in the side hall. Jin Tong laughed loudly and said: "Xiao Ling, you are really good. According to my internal information, Jia Neng, the scapegoat official, is definitely lost. The Ministry of National Defense should not dare to blatantly intervene in this matter for the time being. Cao Hualuo told me that fire It has become a very sensitive political event, no one dares to act rashly, you can feel free to speak freely on the phone, and it is guaranteed that no one will eavesdrop." Ling Duyu said: "It's better to be careful. Do you know anything about the submarine? I'll go to your place tomorrow morning and discuss it in detail! I still need to rely on your strength." After making an appointment, Ling Duyu asked, "Does Chu Yuan know about my detention?" Jin Tong said: "I'm afraid she's worried. I haven't notified her yet. You should tell her yourself." After hanging up the line, Ling Duyu called Zhuo Chuyuan. From the other end came Zhuo Chuyuan's melodious voice: "Who?" Ling Duyu smiled and said, "He is someone who misses you." Zhuo Chuyuan angrily said: "Hmph! It turns out that you are a heartless person, and they don't know how to find you. Could it be that they called Miss Manoqi and asked, 'Hey, is your new boyfriend next to you? I'm his old girlfriend!'” Ling Duyu laughed dumbly and said: "Miss Zhuo got the wrong vinegar. Miss Manoqi and I have no affair at all. The whole world can testify to this. In the past few days, I saved a computer crisis and blew up a ship. The submarine was detained by the Ministry of Defense again, and it just escaped danger, if you don’t believe me, you can ask my guardian Jin Tong.” Zhuo Chuyuan was a little listless and said: "Don't exaggerate, okay? In fact, I was so busy this round that I almost died, and I was exhausted. How could I have time to think about the people around me or not?" Ling Duyu was stunned and said, "It sounds like you really have another good boyfriend." Zhuo Chuyuan said lightly: "People always feel lonely, don't they? I don't blame you. Even if you are by my side, you can still feel lonely at certain moments. Life is never perfect. Alas! I'm getting more and more 'savior' in my tone." Ling Duyu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Are you still busy with his business?" Zhuo Chuyuan said: "I have become more and more afraid of the 'savior'. His influence is now not limited to the Internet. Those booksellers compile the e-mails left on the Internet into quotations, and each copy is located everywhere. Top of the bestseller list has captivated thousands of people and me. If he were to run for president, he would be unbeatable. Is he really the 'savior'? Now it's a serious religious question .” Ling Duyu said: "What is he talking about?" Zhuo Chuyuan said feebly: "Religion, politics, science, life and death, the universe, beginning and end, environmental protection, morality... I never thought that someone could have such profound and broad knowledge, and at the same time, they could develop insights and knowledge that no one else had before. wisdom." Ling Duyu asked worriedly, "Chu Yuan, are you sick?" Zhuo Chuyuan said quietly: "I don't have time to get sick, I just feel very tired and scared." Ling Duyu said in amazement: "What are you afraid of? 'Savior' has not done anything bad until now, at least he is still a good helper to me, no! It should be called 'Savior'." Zhuo Chuyuan asked in surprise, "Is he still talking to you?" Ling Duyu immediately explained what happened. After pondering for a while, Zhuo Chuyuan wondered, "Why does he pay so much attention to you? Did he fall in love with you?" Ling Duyu begged: "Please don't say that, it will have a great impact on my psychology when I talk to him again?" Zhuo Chuyuan said: "Who knows whether he is a man or a woman? With his supernatural powers, it is easy to change any voice. Let me tell you something that made him more famous. , It involved a political black prison where innocent people were wronged. He revealed all the evidence on the Internet, which made several ministers of a certain government resign, and the head of the government had to publicly apologize to the people. Man, how attractive is he to the masses? But I always feel that he has ulterior motives." Ling Duyu said: "It's a pity that he is only willing to talk to me alone, otherwise I really hope you can ask him directly." Zhuo Chuyuan replied a little angrily, and said, "What's the difference? I'll draft the topic, and I'll leave it to you to ask him." Ling Duyu reminded: "Never use a computer to write." Zhuo Chuyuan smiled and said: "I almost forgot, eh! Let me see if I can get away and go to your place, it's business!" Ling Duyu said happily: "I finally heard your laughter." Zhuo Chuyuan said angrily: "You man! I won't tell you anymore. I have a lot of things to do. I will deal with Kalindong's disappearance now. Goodbye!" Ling Duyu put down the phone and looked towards the entrance of the side hall. Xiao Manzi was leaning against the door, and said with a smile, "Are you on the phone with your girlfriend?" Ling Duyu shrugged helplessly, and acquiesced. Xiao Manzi laughed and scolded: "You bloody ghost." Then there was a look of reminiscence in his eyes, and he said longingly: "How beautiful our days in the sea were! It was like living in an isolated world, only caring about changes in the weather and the ocean, and leaving everything behind. It's the most beautiful memory in my life. Remember when I put on my three-point swimsuit, you bastards, everyone stared at me so lewdly?" Feeling hot in Ling Duyu's heart, he stood up, went to embrace her in his arms, and said softly: "You are still the beauty that everyone is looking at." Xiao Manzi gesticulated on his chest with her fingertips, and said softly with a bit of bitterness: "Why don't we treat it as if we are in that cabin tonight, apart from you and me, there is only the sky and the sea, okay?"
When Ling Duyu got up, Xiao Manzi was still asleep, with a satisfied smile on her face, indulging in the unfinished sweet dream of last night, but she didn't know where the dream happened, or whether it was the journey that she could never forget. Thinking of Jin Tong's date, Ling Duyu changed into light clothes and a leather jacket after washing up, and walked easily to the quiet and deserted hall. Lanzhi was sitting alone on the balcony connected to the hall outside, eating breakfast, meditating silently, with a dazed look on his face. At this moment, Ling Duyu deeply felt the emptiness and loneliness of this proud woman who was ranked among the 100 richest people in the world by Fortune magazine. Ling Duyu went out, sat down opposite her, called the morning, and said, "Aren't you afraid of the cold?" At this time, the butler came to Ling Duyu, asked him what he wanted for breakfast, and retreated into the house. Lan Zhi stared at the snow-white world under the mountain, and said softly: "I thought you were as drunk as the three of them, eh! You are a very restrained person." After sizing him up, he said, "Do you have an appointment? There are a few cars in the garage, so you can use them casually? If you want to save yourself, I can call a driver for you." Ling Duyu smiled and said, "Don't you want to give me a ride?" Lan Zhi suddenly lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I'm a little afraid of you." Ling Duyu said in astonishment: "Afraid of me?" Lanzhi nodded, then looked up at him with a pretty face and said: "You are the kind of man who is born to attract women's hearts, not only because you are good-looking and capable, but because you have a sense of justice, oh I don't know what to say." Ling Duyu laughed dumbly and said: "It turns out that you are afraid of falling in love with me. As for whether I am a righteous person, I don't know myself. I just do what I know should be done. The question is whether Houxiao is positive or negative, then Only a genius would know." Lanzhi chewed on his words, and Xia Shengyu said: "Can a woman fall in love with several men at the same time?" At this time, the servant girl brought breakfast, and the two stopped talking. After the servant girl left, Ling Duyu took two sips of Chinese tea and said spontaneously: "The love between a man and a woman is an elusive and elusive thing. And it often involves other issues; or it can be said that under certain conditions, plus Natural attraction, resulting in a sincere need and feeling. When you project your emotions and soul on a single object, you will naturally feel that you are not married, and you will never marry. If you say that, you may have never met Such a person. But let me warn you first, that fact is just a subjective feeling, time can spoil anything, and then it can only be maintained by deep feelings and life." Lanzhi said: "You don't seem to believe in the existence of love." Ling Duyu thought of Menghu and Qingzi (seeing the facts), and felt as if a knife had been cut in his heart. He smiled bitterly and said: "I have been severely traumatized, but so what? Living people always have to be strong If you want to live as long as you want, and have experienced a lot, you may even be afraid of the pain and joy of love? You don’t really understand love, but you are all experts in hurting others.” After Lan Zhi stared at him for a while, she said softly, "You know? The melancholy in your eyes makes people tremble." Ling Duyu felt heartbroken, Qingzi taught him the true meaning of love, which is a state that can be achieved without lust.Only the fusion of souls can truly drive away selfish desires and loneliness. Otherwise man is just a lonely and isolated individual. Love suddenly ignites at a certain moment, but due to the nature of human nature, after a period of time, the fire of love will gradually dim, or even disappear. People gather because they want to overcome loneliness, and in the end they will still lose more than they gain. For example, he and Zhuo Chuyuan once fell in love fiercely, but due to environmental problems, or because he could not stay with her for a long time, his life has changed now. Since Haruko, he has unconsciously searched for the stimulation and substitute of love, and every time he is very involved, bringing many sad and beautiful memories. Scenes of the past flooded into my heart. Suddenly Lanzhi's warm jade hand touched the back of his hand, stroking it pitifully. Ling Duyu woke up from the memories and looked at her, who said apologetically, "I'm sorry! I've disturbed you." There was a dry cough, and Lanzhi quickly retracted her hand in fright. Xiao Manzi sat down next to Ling Duyu as if nothing had happened, and said playfully, "Are you talking bad about me?" He leaned over and kissed Ling Duyu's cheek affectionately. Ling Duyu stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll come to you for lunch at noon!"
The colonel, Johnson, and Hawkeshen were all waiting for Ling Duyu's arrival in the house. Everyone beamed and had dinner together. When they heard that Ling and Chen found a submarine in the shipyard, they were all horrified, and when they heard that all the criminals were hiding in the submarine and forced them to blow up the submarine, they even bent over with laughter.
