    Good guy, Jiang Jianming didn't dare to let the old teacher talk nonsense anymore, so he quickly stuffed him with a new cup of coffee and sent him away.

    He thought for a moment alone, took out his small notebook and pen from his breast pocket, and habitually began to write and draw, sorting out the scattered information.

    The things that are known now are as follows: First of all, Emperor Kaios and His Royal Highness Lai An both took the initiative to go to the Crystal Nest to die.

    Secondly, neither the Emperor nor His Royal Highness explained the reasons to the public.His Majesty the Emperor, the leader, and possibly Marshal Chen, they should have known the reason, but they also chose to conceal it.

    Two inferences can be extended from this: First, the secret hidden in the crystal nest is likely to be a truth that will cause turmoil in the hearts of the people, and it may be directly related to the safety of the empire and even human beings, which is also what the leader told himThe "premature exposure to certain things is not good" corresponds to it.

    Second, either the time is not yet ripe, or they still have a choice.In short, the policy of Yin Beidou can still be vacillating now, and His Majesty the Emperor can still pull the leader to eat melon seeds every day, which shows that the matter has not yet reached the level of imminent danger.

    Jiang Jianming groaned and tapped the corner of the table.

    No matter what, Jingchao is going to make an appointment.So what he wants to prove most now is the importance of the expedition to the crystal nest, so as to persuade the military department not to turn the strategy of Yin Beidou into a contraction, and it is best to continue to send expedition fleets.

    The wind chime rang again, and the guests in the coffee shop came and went.Jiang Jianming came back to his senses, it was getting late, and the window was not known when the setting sun reflected bright colored clouds.

    He knew that he was "recovering from a serious illness", and His Royal Highness would be anxious after wandering outside for a long time.Quickly tidied up, and sent a message to Diana with her wrist phone, asking her to help pay attention to the period of the holy battle——

    Especially during the fourth and fifth holy battles, are there any special changes in crystal particles or alien creatures.

    When it was over, Jiang Jianming walked out of the coffee shop.

    On the streets with gray and white tiles, there are not many pedestrians, and occasionally an aircraft flies overhead.

    As he walked, he took out the masking device from his pocket, and was about to hang it back to Emerald Palace.

    Suddenly, a beautiful figure flashed in front of him.A young woman in a plaid skirt trotted a few steps from behind and called out softly, "Wait, please stay."

    Jiang Jianming turned his head sideways: "You are..."

    "Your Excellency Jiang! You are Colonel Jiang Jianming, right?"

    The young woman's eyes were wide open, her plain ponytail was slightly messy, and her eyes were black and blue.

    She hurriedly said: "I, I am a member of the Wujing Human Race Protection Association, and I am also a reporter. Well, my name is Yang Xiaozhen..."

    Jiang Jianming immediately remembered that he had seen this girl on TV last time. She was active and bright in the interview, which was quite different from her current appearance.

    He glanced at the two men holding miniature cameras with the same tense expression not far away, and vaguely realized something, "Sorry, I don't have time now..."

    "Your Excellency Jiang!!" Yang Xiaozhen hastily interrupted him, the girl had a look of panic on her face, "I, we have heard some... rumors. Can you give us some time..."

    Jiang Jianming was about to raise his legs to leave, but when he heard this, he sighed inwardly and stopped.

    He looked towards a remote street corner: "Is it okay to go over there and talk."

    Several people walked to no one's place.Just when she stood still, Yang Xiaozhen timidly asked:

    "Are you really a chronic crystal disorder patient?"

    A gust of cold wind blew between the two of them, and the dead leaves curled up on the road were rustled away.

    Jiang Jianming's eyes were as condensed as iron.

    He suffered from chronic crystal disorder and never made it public.Even close friends like Tang Zhen, Bemaner, and Diana and reliable assistants like Zheng Yue don't know that Yang Xiaozhen is just an ordinary citizen of the empire, what's wrong?

    Judging by her panicked reaction, she probably didn't know about it when she was interviewed a few days ago, but only learned about it recently.

    It is impossible for the General Hospital of the Military Department to disclose the patient's information, that is, when he fell ill and was carried out by His Royal Highness, it is likely to be a general or entourage at the military headquarters at that time.Who spread out...

    ... No, Jiang Jianming pursed his lips and thought to himself, it doesn't matter who it is.This is the fact that there is no impenetrable wall in the world.

    "Please answer me!!" Yang Xiaozhen raised her voice but was trembling.

    Even though he deliberately went around the corner, it was of no use. With such loud shouts, someone soon noticed this side.

    People looked inside with their heads poking around, pointing and pointing with different expressions.

    "It's Colonel Jiang."

    "It's Your Excellency the Inspector."

    After a few seconds of silence, someone said: "That's Ms. Yang from the Wujing Association, she...she must be asking...that matter."

    Obviously, more than one person has known about chronic crystal disorder.

    "..."

    Jiang Jianming turned to look at Yang Xiaozhen.This girl has delicate features, she should be about the same age as him, in her early twenties, and she is in a good youth where all passions are allowed.

    The two men behind her, who looked to be in their twenties or thirties, were looking in their direction with indescribably complicated eyes.

    "Yes." Jiang Jianming nodded calmly and admitted.

    "I do have an illness."

    In the twilight, the wind rose again.Yang Xiaozhen seemed to have been hit on the head with a heavy hammer, she showed a hollow expression.

    Two or three seconds later, the woman said bitterly: "So, you were able to join the army because of chronic crystal disorder? Didn't you rely on the strength of the crystalless race itself?"

    Jiang Jianming's eyebrows twitched, and the corners of his lips inadvertently revealed a few wry smiles.

    He actually guessed that the girl would react like this, but... this person is really, can't he just put on a show and care for the terminally ill patient?

    Don't young people nowadays know what a miserable disease chronic crystal disorder is?

    Jiang Jianming was not too polite to her, and said in a flat tone: "You should also know that in terms of bearing the interference of crystal particles, the crystalless race does have a natural disadvantage."

    Yang Xiaozhen opened her eyes wide again, unable to believe that the four words were written in her pupils.

    The two men in the back looked at each other, and then at Jiang Jianming... It seemed that this person uttered this sentence, it was something like red rain in the sky.

    Jiang Jianming took a deep look at the camera, then looked away as if unintentionally.

    "You may want me to say something inspiring," he said slowly, "but you are wrong, I don't recommend that the amorphic race join the army in the far interstellar... It is not right for the amorphic race to go to the battlefield at will.He himself is still very unkind to his comrades in arms."

    A stone stirs up a thousand waves.Countless low and thin voices that could not tell what they were saying came heavily from the crowd not far away.

    "You..." Yang Xiaozhen's fingers were trembling, "How could you... say such..."

    "However," Jiang Jianming continued, without any change in his calm tone, "humans are creatures with free will, if an amorphous race is really eager to go to the battlefield, he will naturally find a way to overcome his own disadvantages,Until then……"

    Yang Xiaozhen's eyes turned red, and she said loudly: "The method you said is crystal chaos!? We must risk our lives to fill this natural gully?"

    Jiang Jianming didn't speak, he pulled up the collar of his coat in the cold wind, and set his gaze somewhere in the void.

    For a moment, he recalled the tactical drill room of the military academy when he was a boy, and the red crosses on the model symbolized "failure".

    How much do you have to pay to cross this bright red chasm.How deep is it? Does it get deeper and deeper as you go forward?

    But as long as it goes, he thought.

    just go on...

    But Yang Xiaozhen suddenly raised her face, she was panting, the expression on her face seemed to be anger, pain, and deep sadness.

    "Why hide the disease." She used an almost accusatory tone, "Why didn't the public know! We always thought..."

    ...But no one came to ask me, you asked, didn't I just say it?Jiang Jianming looked away, thinking helplessly.

    The man behind persuaded her: "Ayang, forget it."

    Yang Xiaozhen's emotions were out of control, and she stopped in front of Jiang Jianming relentlessly: "How did you get sick!? Crystal chaos is contagious, and it is illegal to hold true crystal mines without permission—"

    Jiang Jianming: "Sorry, there are people waiting at home, I should go."

    "So," Yang Xiaozhen's eyes were red, and she yelled at Jiang Jianming, "You were promoted so quickly because of the influence of the nobles. This rumor is also true, isn't it!?"

    Jiang Jianming thought about it and thought it was true.

    He nodded: "I think so."

    Some voices came from the crowd again, as if a young man had cursed.Tears rolled down Yang Xiaozhen's cheeks at this moment.

    She looked at Jiang Jianming with trembling shoulders, and said with a sob: "We used to regard you as our belief, as the light of hope for the people without crystals—but now, now..."

    The girl wiped her face and sniffed: "Don't you want to say something? To everyone?"

    Jiang Jianming: "I don't understand."

    "Don't pretend to be confused!" Yang Xiaozhen yelled sharply with tears in her eyes, "All the crystalless people have regarded you as a hero these days, they worship you, admire you and even believe in you!!"

    "You enjoyed these auras without saying a word, took advantage of our expectations, and became the little lord praised by everyone!! But these are all fake, you are simply selfish——"

    "A Yang!" The man who had just spoken out to dissuade him reprimanded, "Don't talk too much...A Yang!"

    He hastily gave Jiang Jianming an apologetic look, "Colonel Jiang, I'm sorry, our girl... you, please go, there may be troubles if there are too many people..."

    Jiang Jianming didn't say a word, he looked at Yang Xiaozhen with resentful and tearful eyes.

    Of course he knew what the girl was expecting from him.

    Some words of encouragement, words of acknowledgment of the possibility of the amorphic race; and I should add my hard work and perseverance along the way, expressing how much I care about the issue of racial equality.

    He knows how to say those words, and he is not without achievements to prove himself.

    As long as he is right, he is still the hero in everyone's mind.And when the little girl calms down and thinks about it, and realizes the hardships of joining the army for patients with chronic crystal disorder, she will definitely feel sorry for him in turn and deify him even more.

    Jiang Jianming thought for a while, he walked to another man holding a video camera, and noticed that the other man had a recording microphone in his hand.

    It's very small and looks like cufflinks, but it's actually more like a bug.He pointed to the cuff button, and motioned for the man to take it off and give it to him with his eyes: "Then let me say a few words."

    The man was intimidated by the officer's demeanor for a moment, and hurriedly picked it up for him.

    Jiang Jianming tapped and tried the sound.Then he raised his head and looked at the backlit evening street corner.There was a crowd of people standing there, and many of them were looking at him.

    "you."

    He lowered his eyes and spoke slowly: "Did you give me the money?"

    "..."

    Echoes echoed around street corners.

    "...?"

    Yang Xiaozhen paused for two seconds before raising her head in astonishment.

    "what?"

    For a split second she thought her ears were broken, or her brain was broken, or she was daydreaming.

    Maybe all the pain and confusion these two days were a nightmare, and when she woke up she was still the Yang Xiaozhen who could fight for her dream.That would be great, but someone will not let her go.

    Jiang Jianming: "Do you know how much I spent to go to the interstellar world, and how much money I owe my friends?"

    Jiang Jianming: "Do you know how much a shot of tranquilizer costs, how much it costs to activate a military treatment cabin, and how much a box of new crystal bullets cost?"

    Jiang Jianming: "You didn't even donate a coin to me, so what use is your worship, admiration and belief to me?"

    "People in the ancient blue star era believed in gods and Buddhas and knew how to donate some incense money. Today's Jingzi believers will also raise money to repair churches and build statues. Without my permission, you take me as a belief—"

    The young officer raised his eyebrows coldly, and paused every word: "Give, me, money, have you?"

    "Give, me, money, did you?"

    In the picture, on the corner of the street in the twilight, a young man with black hair and pale eyes has cold eyes, speaking in a very serious tone and aggressive momentum, without any image.

    The chandelier of the White Emerald Palace sprinkled light on the corner of the wrist machine and the big bed in the bedroom.

    Jiang Jianming had just come out of the shower, his body was covered with semi-wet steam, and he was shaking under the quilt with a stuffy laugh, playing with his wrist phone repeatedly.

    "I didn't join the army to improve the rights and interests of the Amorphous race, let alone to prove how heroic the Amorphous race is."

    The young man in the picture remains motionless, "Everything I do comes from my selfish desires."

    "As for the rights and interests of other non-crystal races, I don't have the energy to care about them. It's up to everyone."

    "I am not the savior you expected. In this regard, I feel..."

    Normal people would say "sorry" here.

    But what the officer said calmly was: "I'm sorry."

    After finishing speaking, the officer handed the wheat back to the stunned man, turned around and left.

    The picture freezes and the video ends.The number of comments below is still increasing rapidly.

    Jiang Jianming didn't mark down the comment area, he was happy for a long time, looked up to the side: "...Your Highness, please don't put on that fierce face, don't you think it's funny?"

    As soon as the words fell, he heard a harsh "crack".

    His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had his back to him, leaning against the window to blow the cold wind, his hands tightly clenched on the window sill as if venting, his veins bulging.

    But when Jiang Jianming spoke at this time, the red gold crystal bone exploded out of his wrist uncontrollably, piercing the alloy glass window of the palace.

    "……why."

    Garcia panted and turned back, with evil eyes, and said hoarsely: "How can you be so indifferent to yourself."

    The author has something to say: What is cognitive difference...

    Jiang: I bullied people again, happy.

    Lai: He was bullied again and was furious.
