Chapter 50: The Difference Between Towers


Xu Le's hand holding the phone stiffened for a moment, and then said hello very neatly.

He put the mobile phone in his arms and came back to his senses, more than 20 days had passed since the dance, and he and Zhang Xiaomeng had not seen each other for more than 20 days.

He called up the class schedule and looked at it, only to find that tomorrow was the last day of December, of course there was no class, only to find that this period of peace and loneliness had lasted so long that he had forgotten the arrival of the New Year.

At this time, Zhang Xiaomeng was in a daze in her single apartment, she glanced at the black-framed glasses resting at her hand, and her delicate face had a trace of sadness and struggle.

After the Double Moon Festival Dance, Tai Zhiyuan disappeared again, and she could no longer find any chance to get close to that person The failure of this mission did not make Councilor Medellin feel dissatisfied, on the contrary, the elder who was as loving as a father comforted her a few words, asking her to pay attention to hiding her identity, and at the same time secretly pointed out that since the male student named Xu Le had met Tai Zhiyuan by chance, maybe there would be a good result from that side.

Do you want to use Xu Le to get close to that person Zhang Xiaomeng's long eyelashes blinked twice, and she denied this practice for the first time, she was unwilling to repeat the injury again after hurting the man.

On the last day of the sixty-sixth year of the thirty-seventh constitutional calendar, the Federation was immersed in the atmosphere of celebrating the New Year, although the empire that was far away light years away, and the empire across the galaxy from the Xilin Region was still a shadow in the hearts of the citizens of the Federation, but the front line was too far away after all, and everyone subconsciously did not think about that question.

The people of the Federation, with their really anxious eyes, are turned to the S2 region.

After the elections in the four states of S2, the accusations against opposition lawmakers intensified, accusing the other side of the opposition that they had not really laid down their arms, and the federal military began to step up preparations for war, and the outbreak of civil war again seemed inevitable.

Congressman Medellín, who came from the army, has been successfully elected as a new member of the Federal Council of Management, and has truly entered the heart of federal politics, but no matter how much he speaks out at various meetings in the capital d.c., the danger of civil war cannot be truly eliminated.

Because it was clear to everyone that the Medellín parliamentarians could influence the people of the four states around the mountains, but not the armed men with guns in the mountains.

After years of federal embargoes and economic sanctions, the mountain army is on the verge of collapse, and they cannot honestly wait to be suppressed by the federal army, but will inevitably choose some way to fight back.

Although there are so many sorrows, for ordinary citizens of the Federation, life must go on, and these questions about politics and life and death can only make them sigh and sigh a few times when reading the electronic newspaper.

On New Year's Eve, all the famous restaurants are fully booked, and the illuminations and neon lights of the playground begin to shine during the day, creating a scene of peace, prosperity and happiness.

Families and lovers who have holidays occupy the special restaurants in those big Ferris wheels and ice and snow worlds.

Compared with those bustling, the towering tower in Linhai Prefecture has lost the charm of a tourist resort and has become extremely quiet, because not many people are willing to run to the top of the tower in such a cold winter.

Xu Le didn't take the elevator, he climbed the tower step by step with a backpack, his face was slightly red, beads of sweat oozed out of his hairline, but his breathing was still steady, without a trace of fatigue, and now he has been able to exercise his nerves and muscles in his daily life, so that the mysterious power in his body is becoming more and more peaceful and powerful.

The cold wind is howling on the sightseeing floor of the iron tower, the orange lanterns are stretched into lonely lines, nestled on the cold metal body, there is no one, only next to the railing in the distance, there is a girl in a dark brown windbreaker, is supporting her chin, looking at the cityscape of Linhai Prefecture.

She wore a cute velvet hat, pink gloves on both sides, and her long eyelashes blinked in the cold wind, but she didn't seem to feel the cold, just quietly looked out of the railing.

Xu Le was more than ten meters behind her, looking at her quietly, a little distracted.

He hadn't seen him for a few days, but when he met again, his state of mind returned to the same situation as before, and he was extremely calm and happy.

"You're here."

Zhang Xiaomeng turned around and smiled at him.

Xu Le stepped forward, smiled gently, took off the backpack behind him, threw it at her feet, stood beside her, and looked out of the fence with her previous eyes.

I saw a few heavy clouds floating in the snowless sky, but on the top of the buildings in the coastal city, you can see the traces of ice and snow left by this winter, and the whole city is in a New Year's atmosphere, but he still feels a little lonely.

"It's not a great view."

Xu Le imagined the emotions of the girl when she watched here before, and said, "How did you think of meeting here?"

"When I was a child, my parents were very busy with work, and I didn't want to sit in those small rooms of the Ferris wheel, so I liked to come here alone and see the scenery."

Zhang Xiaomeng took a breath of mist, looked at the shadow of the Ferris wheel in the distance in a daze, and said, "At the dance that day, I refused to dance with you, I hope you don't mind." ” "I said the other day, I don't know how to dance."

Xu Le still squinted at the gray in the sky and said, "If you still want to say sorry today, I don't think it really makes sense."

Although I have never been in a relationship, I also know that there is no right or wrong thing about this kind of thing. ” "You've changed a little."

Zhang Xiaomeng suddenly turned his head to look at him and laughed, "At that time, in front of the teaching building, you were much more eloquent than now. ” Xu Le also thought of that conversation, and said with a smile: "At that time, I looked at things too simply. ” He turned his head, quietly looked at the brilliance flowing in Zhang Xiaomeng's eyes, noticed that the other party was not wearing that pair of black-framed glasses today, and said softly: "To this day, I still think things are very simple, but it seems that except for me, people in this world are always used to making simple things very complicated." ” Zhang Xiaomeng didn't expect to hear such a passage, lowered her eyes slightly, fell into deep thought, and said softly after a long time: "Maybe it's because I'm a very complicated person, and you are a very simple person." ” "No, you're a very simple person, but you want to do very complex things."

Xu Le's hand held the railing, only to feel that the railing was as cold as ice, withdrew his hand and sighed, and asked, "What is your secret?"

After Zhang Xiaomeng was silent for a long time, she spoke: "A year ago, I was doing volunteer support work in the office of Councilor S2 Medellin. ” "I know that there are a lot of young people in the federation who go to the four states around the mountains to do this kind of work."

Xu Le said: "You are back, and you have been judged as a returnee by the political axe, this should not be a trouble." ” "The problem is, to this day, I'm actually still working for the Medellín parliamentarians."

Zhang Xiaomeng suddenly laughed, and her smile was a little cold.

Hearing Zhang Xiaomeng's true identity, Xu Le fell silent, and only after a long time did he whisper: "Then what?"

"Although I have no professional spy training, what I do is not much different from spying."

Zhang Xiaomeng lowered her head, looked at the heavy backpack at her feet, and said, "I returned to Ewha University, in fact, there is only one purpose, which is to get close to Tai Zhiyuan and help the councillor to have some kind of direct contact with him." ” "And then" Zhang Xiaomeng glanced at him in slight surprise and continued: "Except for the Double Moon Festival Ball, I don't have any way to get close to the mysterious Tai family heir, right, you may not know his true identity now." ” Xu Le shook his head, stopped the question, and asked very calmly: "And then?"

No matter what Zhang Xiaomeng said, Xu Le just replied to her with three words: Then Zhang Xiaomeng looked at him quietly, took off a pink cotton glove from his hand, put it on his hand, lowered his head and whispered: "You don't seem to be surprised at all, nor are you angry." ” "Actually, I've encountered more strange things in my life than you can imagine."

Xu Le put on a glove on his left hand, and his right hand naturally held her hand, looked at her and said seriously: "I just don't understand, what do these things have to do with the things between us." ” "I'm a spy."

Zhang Xiaomeng looked at him very seriously, and said with some confusion: "Don't you have a little bit of fear?"

Xu Le muttered a few words in annoyance, thinking that I was still a fugitive.

He sighed and shook his head, gently pulled out the hair under the brim of Zhang Xiaomeng's hat, looked at her smooth forehead, and said with pity: "If this is your secret A long time ago, I would have guessed it, but I really didn't expect it at the time, and the truth I guessed is the truth." ” Zhang Xiaomeng smiled bitterly, turned her head, looked at the sky outside the bar, and said, "I know that I hurt you, and I shouldn't have said these things in the first place, but if I don't explain it to you clearly, I feel very uncomfortable." ” "You want to get close to Tai Zhiyuan, so you left me" Xu Le combed through these messy messages for her, and said after a moment of silence: "As a result, you have now found out that I actually know Tai Zhiyuan, if you want to get close to him, it may be more convenient to stay by my side, you have not looked for me for so many days, it is obvious that you are not willing to turn back again." ” "It is an insult to you and to me for me to return to you in this situation."

Zhang Xiaomeng let go of the hand holding him, holding his face, his eyebrows and eyes were full of relief and firmness, "I won't let myself do this kind of thing." ” Xu Le's mood was slightly happier: "You once asked me what I think of George Carlin's doctrine and the people in the S2 region.

I have said that I sympathize with them and am willing to support them, but I don't understand whether you can sacrifice the love between us just because you are willing to sacrifice something for it."

The tip of Zhang Xiaomeng's nose wrinkled in annoyance, and sighed: "Maybe it seems ridiculous to you, but this is my belief after all, and I will definitely go back to S2 Huanshan Sizhou in the future, but your ideal is because of the chief engineer of Guoke Mobile Company, and the two of us have no future." ” "Don't talk about the future, only about the present.

You're here today, and it looks like the people you serve have new demands on you.

Xu Le's eyes narrowed, and he said mockingly: "I respect any faith, but a belief that requires sacrificing one's own emotions and betraying one's own emotions is really a disgusting thing in my opinion."

Zhang Xiaomeng felt his anger, and changed the topic silently: "The pressure on the four states around the mountains is too great now, those soldiers and staff living in the mountains are about to usher in the attack of the federal military, and the only ones who can change the will of the federal political axe are those big families, Tai Zhiyuan is the heir of the Tai family in the seven families, if Councilor Medellin can gain his trust, he will be able to help the people in the mountains get through this difficult time." ” "It seems to you that I betrayed the emotions between us, just for some illusory faith, but in reality, I am fighting for those living beings."

Xu Le was silent for a long time and then said, "I haven't seen Tai Zhiyuan for many days, and I may not be able to help you with your side of things." ” "I just want to confess it to you."

Zhang Xiaomeng looked at him, and there was mist in his eyes.

Xu Le took her into his arms, put his hands into her brown windbreaker, attached to the soft and warm youthful body, hugged her tightly, refused to let go, sniffed the faint body fragrance on her ears and neck, and said, "You are my first woman." ” Zhang Xiaomeng fell into his arms and said, "You are my first man." ” "I like you."

"I like you too."

"Really want to leave me" "Yes."

"Then what is between us, what is that night, what is the charity to my poor man before the martyrdom," Xu Le's voice suddenly became angry.

Zhang Xiaomeng lowered his head, pressed his jaw against him like a kitten, and said quietly: "You just want to be your charity to me, maybe you won't be so unhappy." ” "Have you ever thought that those big people who play politics are just using you, have you ever thought that in fact, you are just a girl who doesn't understand anything, you are very naïve" Xu Le straightened up, forgetting that he was still just a young man under the age of twenty, and looked at Zhang Xiaomeng's eyes gloomily.

Zhang Xiaomeng laughed, but tears began to flicker in her eyes, her nasal voice was extremely heavy, and she said with a twitch: "I'm still young, I have to be naïve while I can be naïve." ” At this moment, Xu Le knew that he couldn't persuade the other party to get out of the world that he was very unfamiliar with, and vaguely understood the ideas and ideas of some people in the world.

So the two of them began to kiss jerkyly, kissing the girl's tears, on the cold and windy iron tower.

At this time, a New Year's flower bloomed in the sky, reflecting the figures of these two young people, looking extremely lonely.
