Chapter 74 Don't let me sleep
Milan Star in May can bathe in the best sunshine in the star circle without looking too warm. There are even many fashionable girls in commercial districts wearing leg socks and spring clothes, with a trend that is coming to the face, which always attracts passers-by to watch frequently.
First of all, among the metropolis of all administrative planets in the Milan Star Region, the recently issued Star Region Parliament bill is played on each screen.
These bills triggered different reactions from people on different planets. In some wealthy places, people remained indifferent and looked through the newspapers in front of the hot coffee and milk every morning with an attitude of not paying attention to their own affairs. Some were filled with righteous indignation, and demonstrations broke out on planets that rely on workers who developed the mining industry in private enterprises, and threw stones at the military and police explosion-proof walls holding shields, and those peacekeeping mechas with mottled painted surfaces holding shock-detonated guns.
Sometimes, the live broadcast would be broadcast, and the crowd would rush over and overturn the police car, but the vehicle was held down by the mecha, and dozens of people quarreled with the police mecha.
Despite all these dissatisfaction and resistance, it is obvious that whether the inciting parties behind these marches were those private enterprise consortiums or some small nobles who were violated by interests, the decisions from the Star District Council were quite firm. The resource collection points within the empire are becoming increasingly scarce. It is basically a major trend to reclaim the territorial collection certificates issued to private enterprises and small nobles in the past and reclaim these resources into the empire's treasury.
Although the new bill of the Star District Council has caused a turmoil, as the bigger scenes, the approaching of the Formula Mecha Competition in the Star District has made the fanatics temporarily abandon the unpleasantness caused by the Parliament bill.
Perhaps it was also to solve the accumulation of the star area's poor running-in with the new bill, the Formula Mecha Competition in the Milan star area became an outlet to ease conflicts at this time.
Since humans entered the interstellar era, the mecha competition has always been the most popular sport event in the world. It has a magnificent momentum that is no less than the epic war.
The initial mecha event actually originated from war. The mecha confrontation, sacrifice and dedication in war ignited countless people's ideal of defending their homes like knights. However, in the peaceful world, there were naturally no wars and great pilots that were talked about like the past few world wars. However, the martial spirit of thought has always been deeply rooted in the people, so the mecha competition came into being.
However, the mecha competition limits the controllable range of energy output, which is not as fierce as a real war, but the intensity is not inferior at all.
If there is another thing in this world that can make the blood of billions of people surging in their blood vessels, the nerves and emotions of billions of people will be affected. Apart from war, there is only the mecha competition.
If there is still something in the world that can vent people's dissatisfaction with the current social situation, the huge gap between the rich and the poor, and protest and oppose policies, then the only mecha competition can become such an important tool for balanced and reconciling contradictions.
So the weather in May is not too hot, but the popularity of the Star Zone Formula Mecha Competition is about to begin... It is obvious that the atmosphere in the Milan Star Zone has become the first to be warm.
As a result, the dissatisfaction and resistance to the parliamentary bills of the executive stars in the star area were suppressed by the popularity and benchmarks of this mecha competition and were left behind.
In Qingyuan College, the most common thing students do in addition to their daily academic life is to see the schedule and the latest progress of warm-up events in the canteen, on the dormitory area screen, and on the personal computer light screen in their dormitory rooms.
This is just the reaction of ordinary people. People's love for the charm of Formula Mech Competition is to make them want to see the contestants driving the mech to start the wonderful competitions chasing the throne.
However, in the upper class, the nobles, congressmen, and chaebols saw this a huge feast of interests.
In the mecha equation of the big star area, which is watched by more than 10 billion people in the entire star area, the huge economic interest chain created by the attention and period of tens of billions of eyes has not yet been surpassed by a single event. The glory produced in this is a huge cake that is enough for countless people and countless family chaebols to compete.
To quote a sentence from the sage Toltoy: "Even if the civilizations in the world are destroyed, all I regret is the Formula Competition."
This is something that has fascinated countless people.
The Formula Contest, which has attracted the attention of 10 billion people, will be awarded the title by the king because the pilots in the top spot will be awarded medals and titled, so it has become a big stage for many noble chaebolists to compete for glory.
At least among the more than 30 teams that have qualified for the competition, there are more than ten old-fashioned powerful teams, with backgrounds from aristocratic families. Most of the chief pilots of these teams are the heirs of the leading aristocratic families in the Star Region.
Although some of these noble families, which are so famous that they are shockingly famous, also sent heirs to participate. At first glance, the succession of their family's titles is much higher than the titles awarded by the queen after the Formula Competition, this move is a bit putting the cart before the horse...
However, the honor brought by participating in such events that 10 billion people watch and winning is far beyond the mark left by the reputation left by an old aristocratic family in the hearts of the people. Therefore, most old aristocratic families think that this is a continuation of the glory and glory of the family, and it is also a shortcut to establish family reputation and status in the hearts of the people in the shortest time.
In history, it has never been common for the heirs of aristocratic families who were well-known to the public through the Formula Mecha Competition to win huge popularity in politics. It has also become the best choice for some aristocratic families to make a career in politics.
Just like this, Lin Hai was walking out of the Nafang Research Institute.
He stood in the pure and clear sunshine of May in the Milan Star District, squinted his eyes, as if he was a different world.
After a moment of adapting to the familiar and unfamiliar feeling of the outside world, I turned on my phone.
Seeing the snowflakes flowing out of his phone, Lin Hai was immediately a little stunned. He realized how earth-shaking changes had happened outside in the past two months he had entered the institute.
The mainland car was speeding on the highway. Ang Lee wanted to step on the accelerator into the engine. After receiving Lin Hai's reply, Ang Lee drove to Qingyuan Academy as soon as possible, then took him onto the car and rushed to Wayne's headquarters in the Milan Star Zone.
"You are safe and you can't find you. The Count even reported to the Milan Star Investigation Bureau. The agents almost thought you were kidnapped or assassinated, and even looked for your body along the Lombardy River... and I was almost dismissed. Now the family's crazy words are everywhere, but these are not important anymore... Just be safe..."
Ang Lee drove the car and said a lot of "just as long as you are safe" along the way. But while his sigh was accompanied by some negligent loss.
Lin Hai could already know that during the days when Ang Lee was away, he was afraid of being extremely turbulent. The turbulent even Ang Lee was carrying heavy stones on his shoulders.
The car stopped at the entrance of Wayne's headquarters. The Wayne company headquarters of Milan Star is not as large as that of Riverside Star. On the contrary, it is a bit simple and a five-story hexagonal building.
But at this time, many cars had been parked outside the building, all of which were veterans of the company and family.
The headquarters of Milan Star seemed to have become the wartime command post of the Lin family. People from the family gathered here to provide advice and overcome difficulties together.
There were many people around the door. They had already seen their vehicles arrive. Lin Hao had already walked towards the location where their fleet was about to stop.
The car stopped abruptly, Lin Hai and Ang Lee got out of the car, Lin Hao stood in front of him, and it was obvious that in the past two months of change, his face had a hint of maturity, and even a lot of black fluff grew on his lips.
Facing Lin Hai, Lin Hao looked complicated and looked at Ang Lee, nodded at him, and then whispered to Lin Hai, "I already know where you are missing during this period. When facing those people later, don't speak, I'll explain it to you... Alas, in fact, the hardest thing to explain is Lin Wei's side, you have disappeared for two months, and she is almost mad."
The veteran led by Earl Lin Wei stood at the door, and everyone used all kinds of strange, complicated, sarcastic, disdainful, frivolous, arrogant, or straightforward without looking at Lin Hai.
Before he could get closer, some sarcastic voices drifted from afar, "I thought he and that imperial idol were going on a honeymoon... I guess I completely forgot about the existence of our family members."
"Why do you have to come back? You can see that the girl named Xia Ying has an extraordinary relationship with you. You might as well go away with her and fly away... Anyway, our Lin family is optional to you and can be abandoned at any time." The person who spoke was an old man, his voice a little hoarse and a little aggrieved.
"I don't expect to rely on you to be successful or gain some of her glory... But you always have to tell us where you are and whether you know how many relationships the Earl used to find you during the period when you disappeared..."
Such a sound floats among the people in the family.
Many of them thought that Xia Ying's appearance would open up an unexpected situation for the Lin family in the Riverside Star. They had long known that there were many difficult backgrounds behind the idol halo of Xia Ying's empire in the halo of the idols of the Xia Ying Empire. Her appearance, her relationship with Lin Hai, might be the turning point for the Lin family.
Many people rely on this and think like this. It’s not their reality. People are always used to using any little power, resources or connections that they can use. They have always been influenced by aristocratic families and worked hard in the business world for so many years, so they naturally have such ideas. Not to mention whether Xia Ying can bring a huge turning point to the family, at least there is such hope. There is no possibility that it will not hinder their expectations.
But who knew that after that, Xia Ying was still the lofty imperial idol, but the only connection between them and Xia Ying was in the world, the powerful barrier that the Lin family might have obtained was all because of the lack of Lin Hai's news, which made this line of expectation a certain luxury.
Immediately, the situation suddenly turned sharply
On the Star District Council, the Earl was defeated, and the energy of Ganasan and the Lily Nobles to control the Council should not be underestimated, which promoted the introduction of a bill to revoke the expired private star district collection rights. The new South Star base of the Riverside Star Lin family was immediately hit by a major retracement.
Wayne's PR team sent by the military to announce the breakdown of the final negotiations and the military took back Wayne's light armor supply contract, which immediately made the injury worse.
In the past two months, Wayne's company has laid off one-third of its employees in a row, and now everyone is in danger. The headquarters of Riverside Star has been smashed by angry employees, so the temporary headquarters has been moved to Milan Star... It can be said that it is quite embarrassing.
Lin Hai can understand the attitude of the elders of the family in this situation towards him. After all, most people always place their hopes on unrealistic fantasies when they are desperate. They all think that with their relationship with Xia Ying, Lin Hai can open such a mouth to Xia Ying, and with Xia Ying's powerful energy, changing such a situation will not make the Lin family so embarrassed.
They felt that Lin Hai could do it, but when he was needed, he failed to do so, at least he did not do his part, which made the people in the family feel a little wronged and angry and complained about Lin Hai.
Lin Hai didn't blame them because not everyone knew him.
They decided that if he and Xia Ying were in a lover relationship, then the affairs of Lin Hai's family, the imperial idol with amazing energy, would definitely help. This seemed to be a very vulgar and merciless rule.
But for Lin Hai, even if he really established an unbreakable relationship with Xia Ying, even if the Lin family faced such a dangerous situation, he would never say a word to Xia Ying for this.
They can only be simple lovers.
Lin Hai would not beg for the little help she gave because of her huge connections and background.
He wouldn't do that, they didn't understand him...because he was Lin Hai.
Lin Nan walked out.
This was a heavyweight veteran who firmly stood on the side of count Lin Wei before the Lin family was in danger. He had always been good to Lin Hai, at least he did not make things as sad as Lin Yuanshan and Lin Jiang, and even made Lin Hai feel that the person who understands the most in the Lin family is Lin Nan.
However, at this time, Lin Nan looked at Lin Hai with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, "Lin Hai, do you know? I know your personality. From the time you first came to Hepanxing, I knew... You are strong and intelligent, intelligent, intelligent and wise, and have endless potential. I have always believed that you are more promising than Lin Hao. This can be seen from the fact that you can be admitted to Qingyuan College and become the rotor engine designer protected by the five-person committee of the college... I believe others can also see that your future is absolutely unlimited."
Under this sentence, Lin Nan openly admitted that Lin Hai surpassed him and had a better future. However, Lin Hao did not show any embarrassment or disappointment, but just stood aside and remained silent.
"I also know... your past life has created the indifference in your temperament... I think, at least in your heart, the family is still a place to live... a home where you can stand. And we are your elders, you admit this," Lin Nan was a little sad, staring at him deeply, and continued, "But I didn't expect, I was wrong. You are far more indifferent than I thought... You can ignore the worries of our elders and let yourself disappear without any news for more than two months. This just shows that you don't care at all in this world, whether anyone is worried about your safety, or whether anyone is afraid of hearing the news of something bad about you."
Lin Nan turned his head to look at the family elders around him. The expressions of these people became sad because of his words. People's hearts were full of flesh. Seeing Lin Hai's breakthrough in silence again and again, many of them were actually the kind of philanthropic mouth, but the family concept still survived in their blood. Lin Hai belonged to a member of the family. Whether he was an illegitimate son or not, he had already passed his own actions and was admitted to Qingyuan Academy. At the investigation hearing, it was revealed that the rotor engine designer was shocked and proved his excellence to these family elders and gained a place in their hearts.
So at this time, they couldn't help but sarcastic. They all came from the feeling of aggrievance that was ignored by Lin Hai. They were stabbed by Lin Hai's indifference, which made them feel a little sarcastic and sarcastic.
"Actually, you don't care at all, because in your heart, you don't have such a home at all. You are willing to return to the riverside star just because of your promise to your mother. Apart from that, we, there is no trace of mark in your heart..."
Lin Nan's expression was dim, and then his words hit the fragile heart of every elder around him like a heavy hammer, "We are not worthy of being remembered by you at all."
"Before you were twenty years old, the family abandoned you and your mother... and let you live on the garbage star. Sometimes I just think about it and know how difficult it is. I don't want to explain it to you. The family only knew about this situation last year, so they unanimously passed the family meeting. Even if it caused a scandal, they would take you back no matter what... These are meaningless, right? The family is really bullshit, so we are not ashamed of you and your mother. Let you live hard in a distant and down-and-out place. It's a miracle that you didn't die. Often, I think of it and I feel that the sins in my own hands, what are the things we have done about it... I know that in your heart, the scars will always exist and cannot be compensated... Because if it were me, I wouldn't forgive such a group of people easily. So we deserve to be ignored by you, and we deserve it... Now the family is endangered... This is probably our retribution..."
A middle-aged man from Lin Nan raised his head, his eyes were already wet and red. "If the old earl had known that we, the incompetent descendants, had committed such a damn thing, he would have used his crutch to break our legs."
"It's a pity that the crimes we committed against a kind woman and a young child can no longer be compensated. Some things in the world cannot be compensated, such as separation, separation, inability to seek, late filial piety, and hatred, so this is our sin..."
Lin Nan looked at the Count Lin Wei and Ning Qing, who looked suddenly haggard and complicated, and grinned bitterly, "Earl, you always complain to me about Lin Hai's respect for you, and no child's warmth and dependence on his father... But in fact, in my opinion, it is normal for him to hate you, and such cold hatred will accompany you to lie in the grave until the last moment you close your eyes. Since this is our sin, what else do you need to ask for? Don't blame him, just let him take the time."
Lin Nan looked at Lin Hai for the last time, "Don't let him leave the Lin family completely next time, so that even I, Lin Nan, would not sleep well in my grave."
Ning Qing looked at Lin Hai with a scattered hair, and the count Lin Wei seemed to have grown a lot of years old. After a moment, this hunched figure spoke to Lin Hai, "You are safe... Don't leave, this is our home. Although she is about to be destroyed, I hope that in the Lin family, when Wayne's business collapses, I can have you by my side... Just treat it as satisfying the extravagant hopes of an old man. Even if you have an unresolved hatred, please stay after I die. I, Lin Wei, will definitely launch my ashes to the garbage star to apologize for your mother."
Ning Qing held his arm and said with some resentment and sadness, "I have to add one more. If you die, shoot the ashes of our two of us towards the garbage star, and you will always wander there like a lonely ghost."
Lin Hai looked at the two of them, and his beautiful eyes trembled slightly. His pupils were like a storm of garbage stars tearing out red scars on the earth. After a moment, his sorrow, his anger, and his sadness all turned into a bitter and cool spring in his heart.
He buried his head and said, "No matter what step the situation is, please live well, and don't die easily and escape from all this... I have seen her death and don't want to see it again."
