At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky was clear, and the sun fell on the ground like a piece of golden silk.
Serway stepped vigorously out of the balcony of the marshal's room, and after a downward phase, he saw Capulo swimming in the pool. This is the top floor of the command building of King's Landing Fortress on the Star of Eden. On that day, a foreign army invaded the Rudson Star Territory, and the Federation's King’s fortress in the Garden of Eden was occupied. Later, after the Golden Lion regained it, they devoted themselves to the reconstruction of the fortress.
Now that the King’s Landing Fortress is basically rebuilt, in order to facilitate his work, Karp has set up his residence on the command building.
Hearing the sound of footsteps above, Capro emerged from the water. He is no longer young, but his muscles still show no signs of slackening, and he can't find any fat on his body. Still maintaining a clear muscle line, except for his gray hair and more wrinkles on his face, Capro looked no different from a mature man. In fact, Serway knew that a strong man like Capro could even rejuvenate himself by accelerating cell metabolism if he wanted to. Just for appearance, the Marshal didn't seem to pay much attention to it.
"Morning, Serway. The weather is good today. Would you like to come down for a swim?" Capulo beckoned.
Serway smiled and shook his head: "Your kindness has been accepted."
After the refusal, the adjutant said again: "I have done what you ordered yesterday, Marshal, you can leave at any time."
Capulo left the pool, wiped the drops of water on his body with a towel, and said: "You are not wondering why Mr. President called me back in such a hurry?"
Serway said: "If you need to tell me, Marshal you will naturally say. If I don't need to know, then I can't help asking."
"You're the same as you are, and you do everything with a straightforward look. Don't those guys call you poker face from behind." Capulo looked up at the bright sunshine in the sky and said, "The weather here is really good, but the earth is terrible. . You know, Serway, Horn may be dead."
"What?" Serway looked shocked: "Mr Horn? How could this be..."
"I can’t believe it, but according to the information that your Excellency the President has sent to me, the chances of surviving are not high. It’s a pity that all those people who made me attractive back then walked like this one by one. Now, even Horn is gone, and I feel like I’m leaving behind the times.” Capulo took a clean towel around his waist again, and sat on the beach chair on one side, from the table next to him. Picked up a cigar and smoked it. He spit out a smoke ring and said: "There is something more serious. Mr. President seems to be using the Beskard kid to conduct some kind of secret experiment, but the matter has been exposed. Now the three giants in Babylon, as well as the big and small nobles, demand it. Mobitt gave an explanation. If there are no accidents, they will start a series of negotiations with the Federation recently. If they do not agree, the nobles and the Federation will probably be torn down."
Serway could no longer remain calm, and the good morning mood also disappeared. The secret rivalry between the Federation and the nobles is not a matter of one day or two, but at last they still maintain a superficial relationship. Even if the relationship between the two parties deteriorates, there will be a buffer period in principle, and it should never be fermented as quickly as it is now, and then heat up to the point where it is out of control.
"Marshal, who is that Bethkod kid?" Serway asked.
"The little guy who took the first place in the military." Capulo blew out a puff of smoke: "That's right, Alan Bethkod. Mobitt quietly took him to the Iron Prison, but somehow Horn Knowing this. The old Horne looked hard-hearted on the surface, but in fact he regarded his family very seriously, and Mobit was undoubtedly stepping on his bottom line by doing this. So Horne went to the Iron Prison, and Eventually it caused a devastating explosion in the Iron Prison, and even he himself was folded there."
"But you have to admire Horn, even if Mobit reveals his inverse scales, he still takes care of the overall situation. He chose to hand over the position of patriarch to his son, and even remove his name from the family. What’s wrong? It’s not to avoid a full-scale war between the nobles and the Federation.” Capulo sneered: “It’s a pity that Mobit stretched his hand too long this time. Somehow the secret video from the Iron Prison was leaked out. Even if the nobles want to pretend to be deaf and dumb, they can’t do it. Mobit’s hand can be regarded as pushing himself into a dead end."
"Mr. Horn's mind is really admirable." Serway said sincerely, and said: "Then the president called you back this time to deal with the conflict with the nobles?"
Capulo hummed: "It's not the first time that Mr. President asked us to wipe his ass. You can also see that in order to use the new party to contain us, he deliberately put himself in a neutral position. Now it is. , The situation is not right, so I intend to fall to us, not because we have a deep heritage. Among us, many of us have very close relationships with aristocrats. But there is no reason for him to take advantage of everything. He told me to go back, and of course I want to go back. Otherwise, the Federation would really fall apart."
"But force alone is not enough to solve this matter. The fundamental problem is that Mobit stabbed a hornet's nest." Capulo squinted his eyes and said, "He must be responsible for this matter. I think the most The good result is to resign guilty, so that the nobles can step down. Anyway, Mobitt’s term of office will also end, which is still cheap for him."
"So the new president..."
Capulo shrugged and said: "Look again, if no one is competent, it's better to let me be the one."
He laughed, but Serway didn't dare to answer, and the adjutant couldn't tell whether the Marshal's words were joking or serious?
"Let's go, have breakfast. After breakfast, I should set off." Mobit pressed out the remaining cigar with his hand, stood up and patted the adjutant on the shoulder and said, "I'm leaving. After that, I’m going to have to stare at you here. If there is anything that can’t be solved, I’ll go to the old guy Russen and he will help."
"I know below."
On this day, Field Marshal Capro left the Garden of Eden with a fleet. On earth, events triggered by the Federal President are still continuing to ferment. In a secret space, five light beams light up one after another, and a figure appears in each light beam. They are male and female, but each wears a mask on their face. The six-member council of the Guanghide Council was reconvened, but the priest wearing the black and white clown mask was absent forever, so there were only five people left in this core group.
After a while of silence, the masked K said in a deep voice: "Whether you admit it or not, you can’t change a fact. Ladies and gentlemen, Alan has been out of our control. What he did in the Iron Prison is due to We chose to sit on the sidelines and make the incident worse. Now if you still feel that you want to continue to observe Alan without sanctions and bans, then I don’t think this organization is necessary, because it did not play its due role. !"
Several people looked at each other.
The clown coughed dryly and said: "K, I admit that I did have some misjudgments before. But who would have thought that Bethkod’s old Horn would go to the prison desperately, and who would have thought that the secrets of the iron prison The documents will be leaked out. I can only say that there are too many coincidences in this to make this happen. Of course, it won’t help to talk about it now. You’re right, Alan is out of control, and we must ban him secretly. , Continue to take over the work of the president with a new stand-in."
"I think this decision, there is no need to vote again, right?" The clown looked at the crowd.
No one made any objection. He nodded and said: "Then we will send Miss Purging right away to clean up Alan first..."
Suddenly the image of A in the corner became blurred, and the clown was startled and said loudly: "What happened?"
The voice of the woman who had gone to assassinate Mobitt with the priest was both frightened and angry: "I was attacked, damn...", suddenly her image disappeared, leaving only the beam of light still in place. She left so suddenly that the remaining few people did not react for a while. Or K asked first: "Who knows where A lives?"
"How is it possible that we only know our identity and residence. No one should know where A lives." said the woman wearing a mask Q.
The clown suddenly said: "No, someone knows."
K looked at him as if thinking of something, and then the two said a name at the same time: "Alan!"
"Damn it, no matter what Alan's true identity is, he is the highest authority in the Federation after all, even if it is only appearance. But he has enough power to use the power of the Federation to investigate us. He was originally our organization. The members of, it’s not impossible to find us.” The clown said anxiously: “Everyone, today’s meeting can only end here, and we can’t hold meetings in this way. Ladies and gentlemen, we must We met, no matter where you are, after ten days, please come to the doomsday bunker. If Alan uses the power of the Federation to bite us, then the situation will become extremely serious. Maybe Guangxi can no longer stay in the shadows. , We have to get all the pieces to clean up this traitor."
The clown looked at K again, and his figure disappeared into the beam of light.
The others disappeared one by one, and K was no exception.
Go to Babylon, Alstai takes off the sensor helmet. The room was dim, it was late at night, and the floating island looked dim and quiet from the window. Alstai sighed and said, "I seem to have screwed up, old friend. It seems that I shouldn't let you go. As a result, not only will you be with you, but the whole situation will become worse. I will leave the shadows, and the nobles will fall out with the Federation. Then, I am afraid that there will be a full-scale civil war among human beings.
"Tell me, what should I do?" Alstai sighed, holding his head and said: "I can't think of any way to prevent this ending, power and war, is it that we humans are destined to be unable to bypass it? Fate?"
