The patter of rain.

Napoleon VII, who was at his desk at the table, looked up and saw his own reflection on the glass window. Bean-sized raindrops flowed down the glass window, not only blurring the world outside the window, but also washing his reflection into mist. .

The orange desk lamp made the night dim like the doomsday.

The sound of crackling rain makes the world seem more peaceful.

Napoleon VII took off his glasses, closed his eyes, pinched the root of his nose, and relaxed his eye muscles before opening his eyes again, and asked in a low voice, "What time is it, Morris?"

"It's six thirty-five, Your Highness." Morris, who was hiding in the shadows, came out, "Do you want something to eat?"

In the blink of an eye, it was time to activate the carrier to participate in the investigation of Hydera. Napoleon VII stood up from the table and began to sort out the messy documents on the table. Some of them were about the "Black Death" and about the European Union. There are also articles about the situation of the European countries.

There are also black "SSS" seals printed on the upper right corner of many documents, which shows that these are all extremely important confidential documents.For security reasons, many documents within the Europa Alliance do not choose to be transmitted over the Internet, but are still transmitted in paper by encrypted fax machines.

After inspecting Hydera during the day yesterday, a group of upper-class figures in Europa and Greece had a heated discussion on how to deal with nearly 30 refugees in the evening.According to Napoleon VII's idea is to solve it within Greece, cooperate with Interpol to carry out screening, eliminate criminals and extremist forces, grant refugee status to most people, and then send a resettlement fee to disperse the personnel and distribute them to various districts .

50.00% of the funds will be borne by the New Europa Union, and 50.00% will be borne by Greece in the form of loans.Originally, this was a friendly proposal to Greece.However, Thackeray, the commander of Greece, spoke loudly, saying that Greece has had enough of being the gateway to Europa to bear the responsibility of the refugee invasion. Now that the economy and security environment in Greece have deteriorated sharply, and the financial burden has reached the brink of collapse, so they have a point I can't even get the money out.

At the meeting, Thackeray asked Napoleon VII to take away all 30 refugees from Greece, otherwise Greece would refuse to fulfill the agreement signed with the Central Bank of Europa and would launch a referendum to withdraw from the Europa Union.Obviously he was very dissatisfied with Napoleon VII and the military conspiring to take Hydera away.
The more quarreled the two parties became, the spittle flew all night. Not only did they fail to reach a basic consensus, they even broke up happily.However, if Hydera's refugee problem is not resolved for a day, the losses will multiply.

Logically speaking, if the refugee problem in Hydera is delayed, it will be much more detrimental to Greece. After all, all the refugees are now in Greece, and Greece will suffer first if it is not handled well.

However, Thackeray, the leader of the Greek Grand Commander, is not doing very well in the economy. He is a good player in political struggles. He has seen that Napoleon VII cannot bear the political impact of the "Hydra problem" for a long time, which will make Napoleon VII The image of the strongman who worked hard collapsed, so his attitude was extremely tough, and he assumed a posture that he would fight Napoleon VII to the end even if both sides were hurt.

This is blatant political blackmail, but for Napoleon VII who wanted to solve the refugee problem quickly, he had to suffer this loss and spend money to buy peace.

However, the problem is not that simple. The persona he established is a "Europa nationalist" who spends a lot of money to resettle refugees, which can easily be advertised as a compromise for refugees by interested people.

So Napoleon VII was forced into a dilemma.

Thinking of eliminating the "Hydra" and not gaining too much Ouroboros, and also offending Thackeray, an old oily man, Napoleon VII felt a headache and couldn't eat.He waved to Morris and said, "Coffee. No, a bar!"

Morris noticed Napoleon VII's frowning, and said softly: "Your Highness, even if you have a carrier, you must pay attention to the health of your body! You haven't let your consciousness rest for an hour for almost 15 years. It's not a good thing for your body."

"I know, Maurice, but how can I have time to rest? It is very difficult to integrate Europa now. There are interceptions in the front and chasing troops in the back. We are not stable inside. Countless people are waiting to see my jokes. How can I sleep? is it?"

Morris sighed and said, "Young master, I think you really demand too much of yourself and push yourself too hard. You still had your own hobbies when you were young, but since you were 11 years old Lock the computer and comic books in the cabinet, and spend all the time studying and working. I have never seen you entertain and relax. Before you became a general, you once said that as long as you become a general Take a good rest for a while. But after becoming a general, you said that you have to wait until the integration of Europa is completed before you can rest assured." After a pause, Morris said mockingly, "Now I think, I may not be able to wait until you can It's a day off."

Napoleon VII smiled, "I have worked hard for you all these years, Maurice, how about I give you a long vacation, whether it is to go to a tropical island or the cold Antarctica, and you can play instead of me? I can watch the video you sent, it's a kind of rest."

Morris shook his head, "Master, I now follow you around without worrying or working hard. It's no different from taking a vacation. I'm just worried about you. Workaholics also need to stop occasionally to adjust their rhythm and mood. , the combination of work and rest can better complete the work, isn't it?"

Napoleon VII put down the documents in his hands and raised his hand as a form of surrender, "Okay, okay, Maurice, I will give myself a day off after I finish dealing with Hydera." It seems that one day is too long, Napoleon VII Shi Bi nodded, and immediately said, "Maybe half a day is enough!"

"Just one day at a time!" Morris smiled gratifiedly. "However, what old Morris hopes most now is to see you get married soon and have a baby soon, so that I can take care of the little master."

Athena's face flashed in Napoleon VII's mind, and he stared at the glass window for a moment with a bitter taste in his heart.

At this moment, Morris shouted loudly like thunder, "Your Highness, be careful!"

The golden light shield jumped out automatically. The dazzling light shield failed to block the substantial silver light, but completely illuminated the dark room in the rainy night. A black shadow appeared under the blazing sun, like a spotlight. Suddenly, the villain on the stage was illuminated.

It's a pity that the silver ray pierced the shield of the "Scepter of the Seven-Star Marshal", but could not break through the defense of the "Sword of Oceanus". It hit the blue sword as thin as a cicada's wing, and only rippled. .

Without any extra dialogue, the man in the black windbreaker pulled out the sword from his waist and charged forward, as fast as lightning, like a tall and straight horse hitting Napoleon VII at the fastest speed.

Morris erupted with silver light all over his body and stopped in the middle like a bull, but the other party jumped up lightly, and jumped against the roof in front of Napoleon VII with lightning speed.

Seeing that the long and slender silver sword was about to pierce Napoleon VII's pupils, Morris turned around and grabbed the opponent's legs that were still in the air, and with a fierce pull, the man in general uniform was pulled from midair and fell to the ground. on the floor.

The floor crumbled and sawdust flew.

The man in the windbreaker who fell on the ground did not get up instantly, but lay in a depression that seemed to have been hit by a meteorite, staring coldly at Napoleon VII who was lying beside his seat.

Morris was hesitating whether to continue the attack. Napoleon VII, who had activated the carrier, suddenly appeared. He grabbed the man in the windbreaker by the collar, lifted him from the floor, and wrapped the man with a light shield. It also includes the crimson ball of energy that is constantly expanding behind the man. At this time, the surface of the ball of energy behind the man is covered with magma-like black foam, which looks like a small sun.

Obviously, the power of the powerful "sss skill neutron light" has reached the middle stage, and it is easy to destroy the entire floor. If it is close enough to Napoleon VII's body, even if the general is not paying attention, he may cause unimaginable consequences.

Napoleon VII said coldly: "Orto, I said that if you want to kill me, you can only exercise your own strength and defeat me openly. It is meaningless to play this kind of trick in front of me. Instead, you will lose your father. Face."

The bearded man, who looked a little older than Napoleon VII, sneered and said, "Christoph, don't mention my father hypocritically, you killed him with a conspiracy and took the position of the general, no matter what No matter what method I use, there is nothing wrong with it.”

Napoleon VII held the man in the windbreaker with one hand and said expressionlessly: "Idiot, I just tell you that this method is useless. It is difficult to use conspiracy to kill a person who is good at conspiracy and scheming, and you are limited IQ can't do it at all!"

Napoleon VII's sarcasm made the man in the windbreaker named Orto tremble, "Your shameless state is refreshing to me. I really don't know how Athena would fall in love with a despicable villain like you!"

"Orto, I didn't kill your father to become a general."

Orto raised his ferocious face, stared at Napoleon VII and said angrily: "Bah! You hypocrite, you can fool the whole world, but you can't fool me. I still regarded you as a friend back then! I still treat you as a friend!" For my confidant, I didn't expect you to devise such a big conspiracy to kill my father, I suspect that you helped the clown Sith set up those poison gas devices! You bastard, don't let me find the evidence."

Faced with Orto's sharp and deadly words, Napoleon VII was quite calm, and he said lightly: "Orto, the reason why your father died is because he deserves to die. I watched France and Europa slide into the abyss but did nothing. I admit that I am a bit despicable, but I can say without hesitation that this is the stigma I should bear. He is afraid of the difficulty of reform, I am not afraid, I am willing to shoulder such a responsibility. So I do not regret killing him at all, even if I do it all over again ten thousand times, I will still make this decision, even if I have paid a great price for it!"

"Asshole, don't try to use sweet words to get rid of the crime."

This time it was Napoleon VII's turn to interrupt Orto's words, "Now I'm going out, next time I'm going to kill me, another way, it's not enough just to figure out my schedule!"

Speaking of which, a bolt of lightning shot out of the golden light shield that wrapped Alto, and the lightning pierced straight into the red lava light ball behind Alto, causing an explosion in an instant, and the entire interior of the light shield was filled with black crimson light. , The dazzling light beam shot in all directions, directly blasting Orto into a colorful spiral.

"Your Highness, this is the third time, why don't you look for Orto's hiding place?"

Napoleon VII shook his head, "It's not necessary, as long as he doesn't worry about external forces plotting against me, I won't kill him."

"But it's troublesome for him to come over and over again like this!"

Napoleon VII smiled and said: "There is an idiom in China called 'Taste the Gallbladder while Lying on the Fire'. It is said that the monarch of a country, for the prosperity of the country, sleeps on a pile of straw with a weapon on his head at night, and hangs a gall in the house. , Taste the gall every morning after getting up, and ordered the soldiers outside the door to ask him: "Have you forgotten the three years of shame?" Orto's assassination will make me always remember my responsibility. When I finish If I revive the cause of Europa, I can kill him without guilt!"

Morris knelt down on one knee and said excitedly: "Honorable Your Highness! You will be the master beyond human narrative!" ——————————————————————— —————

Napoleon VII changed into a blue military uniform, carried a gleaming general rank on his shoulders, and appeared in No. [-] Hospital on the [-]th floor of the Hydera Building in shiny high leather boots. It can't work if it is destroyed, but all the equipment in the inpatient department can be used normally.

Right now, the vast majority of patients have not been able to be discharged from the hospital, and there are many small characters who can enter the Black Death Hospital, all of whom are prominent figures in Europe and the Middle East.Napoleon VII came to No. [-] Hospital early in the morning. Accompanied by Ayala, he gave condolences to these patients, and Napoleon VII left No. [-] Hospital after he made a comprehensive promise of safety. To the slums to conduct research.

Thackeray, the commander of Greece, only took a few photos in the slums, but he disliked the poor environment of the slums, and left under the pretext of having many things to do.Napoleon VII led his team through the streets and alleys of the slums, and made a general survey of the entire slums.

Among them, what Napoleon VII was most concerned about was assuming that the situation in the Middle East was stable, would these refugees have the willingness to go back? On the surface, the results of the investigation were in line with Napoleon VII’s wishes, so he took the hastily released investigation report and made an appointment again. Thackeray.

Thackeray was unwilling to go to Hydera again, and used the meeting as an excuse.Napoleon VII didn't put on airs, he drove straight to the mansion of the Grand Commander, and went to find Thackeray in person.Seeing that Napoleon VII was anxious about solving the "Hydra refugees" as he expected, Thackeray became more and more determined, and left Napoleon VII in the living room to wait for an hour before appearing leisurely.

Thackeray walked towards Napoleon VII and Clotte Guyon who were sitting on the sofa, wrinkled his somewhat edematous face, and said with a smirk and apology: "Your Excellency, I am so sorry, just now we We have been discussing about the Hydera refugees. Since the solution needs long-term discussions, we have decided to temporarily put aside the relevant proposals and move the refugees to Kerkyra Island first.”

Corfu Island is located on the border between Greece and Albania, only a few tens of nautical miles away from the member of Europa, Yili. It is the bridgehead for smuggling from Greece to Yili.There is no doubt that Thackeray did not intend to give Napoleon VII room to strategize, and directly forced the palace.

Napoleon VII stared at Thackeray's old face, his skin was covered with age spots and wrinkled, so decayed that it made him sick to his stomach, Napoleon VII thought of the time when Cheng Mo crushed Commander Michel under the Eiffel Tower In the scene, he fantasized that he would draw out the sword of Oceanus and cut off Thackeray's head, but he said with a nonchalant smile, "Your Excellency, there is no need to make such a hasty decision."

"Oh? Could it be that His Excellency the God General decided to agree to our conditions? If that's the case, we can consider delaying the migration of refugees for a few days."

"I have a better plan."

"Really?" Grand Commander Thackeray looked down at the watch on his wrist, and said noncommittally, "I can only spare 10 minutes to listen to His Excellency's grand plan."

The commander of Thackeray was deliberately arrogant like the commander of the lighthouse. Napoleon VII smiled casually and said: "I think you probably also know about the saint of Ayala, her father Professor Ibrahim She is a well-known scholar of the Sun School and has great influence in Syria, and the saint of Ayala has a great reputation among refugees. We can help them build up their armed forces and influence the situation in Syria by ourselves.”

Thackeray laughed "haha", then shook his head, and said with some contempt: "Your Excellency, the god general thinks too easily, the situation in Syria is complicated, not to mention the lighthouse and Ennos, even Yilang and Turzi can keep us out of it.”

Faced with Thackeray's ridicule, Napoleon VII said calmly: "This is exactly what I want to say. I support you in declaring war on Turchi and taking back Cyprus and the island of Imia."

This earth-shattering speech made the sneer on the face of Commander Thackeray instantly turn into consternation, and then his expression froze, and his breathing became rapid
The grievances between Greece and Turzi have a long history. The specific timeline can be calculated from the eradication of the Byzantine Empire by the Ottoman Empire in the middle of the fifteenth century. During the period when the Ottoman Empire ruled Greece, the Greeks resisted the oppression of the Turzi people Uprisings broke out continuously, and it was not until 1830 that Greece became independent under the intervention of troops from England, France and Ennos.

In 1912, Greece became entangled with the Balkan Alliance and declared war on the Ottoman Empire, regaining a lot of territory.

Then the First World War broke out, the Ottoman Empire was defeated, the territory was divided, and the Ottoman Empire ceded part of the territory of Asia Minor to Greece.But what Greece haunts is taking back their capital, Constantinople (now Istanbul), and participating in the European powers' attack on the Ottoman Empire.At this time, the Turtsi strongman Kemal came into being, not only buried the Ottoman Empire, but also led the Turtsi people to defeat the invading army of the European powers, and established the Turtsi Republic.

It also made Greece not only dream of breaking the Sea of ​​Marmara, but also lost the Asia Minor peninsula it had just regained.

In recent years, Greece and Turchi have not been at peace. For the oil and gas resources of Cyprus and the Mediterranean Sea, the two countries have continued to dispute. If it were not for the mediation of the Lighthouse and Europa, the two countries would have fought long ago.

Napoleon VII's unequivocal support for the war in Greece was against the lighthouse, which was completely beyond Thackeray's expectations.But taking back Cyprus and Imia Island is of great significance to Greece. Even if Commander Thackeray knows that things are difficult, it is impossible for Commander Thackeray not to be emotional. May I ask which Greek has not come again? dream of constantinople
Looking at the cloudy and uncertain face of Grand Commander Thackeray immersed in thinking, Napoleon VII whispered: "Your Excellency Commander should know the existence of No. [-] Hospital in Hydera Building, but you may not know why so many people are concerned Hospitals of the Black Death are flocking to them. There they can replace the failed organs of the elderly, so that the life of the elderly can be greatly extended. It turns out that this technology is not mature, and the success rate of young people is high, and the elderly are at great risk. Now This technology is fully mature, and it is not difficult to replace the organs of lizardmen for the elderly. It happens that there are still organs in the No. You have a strong physique, maybe you have the courage of young people to challenge the impossible!"

Commander Thackeray swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised his hand to loosen his tie, but found that he was not wearing a tie, and he didn't feel embarrassed, just put his hand down unconsciously, and said in a dry voice: "Will you start a war?" ?”

"War is always by your side. It is better to be active than passive." After a pause, Napoleon VII said indifferently, "If you successfully take back Cyprus and Yemia, and replace Turzi in Syria It is not impossible to re-establish the monarchy in Greece in the future" (monarchy sounds like polygamy, but it is not uncommon for countries around the world to practice monarchy, it can be said to be one of the mainstream, there are more than 30 in total, Among them are not only the Wuchang United Kingdom, which has the third largest GDP in the world, but also the richest country in Saudi Arabia, and the richest royal family in the world is the King of Thailand)

--------------------------

Just as Napoleon VII and the commander of Thackeray were preparing for a war, Cheng Mo and Athena left the slum without any danger with the help of Patani and Pierre.Pierre, as Clothes Guyon's confidant, is also a member of the Europa Executive Committee, and it is not a big problem to get out two Interpol who can show their "true" identities.

In fact, the process was easier than they imagined. The key reason for this was that Napoleon VII, Baimon and Astaroth of the Black Death did not expect that Cheng Mo was in Hydera.If they have collected relevant intelligence, the inspection will definitely be more stringent.

After leaving the slum, Pierre personally drove Cheng Mo and his immediate boss' fiancee to the National Museum in the city center with many tourists. Seeing that it was far enough away from Hydera and in a crowded area, Patani shouted Stop the car and tell Pierre to wait in the car.

After getting off the car, Cheng Mo searched on the side of the road, and led the two of them into a Greek-style coffee shop not far from the museum.After the meal, there were not many people in the coffee shop. Cheng Mo took Athena and Patani to find a hidden corner and sat down. He casually took the menu and ordered three cups of coffee from the waiter, and waited for the waiter to leave. , Patani said a little impatiently: "Now is the time for you to fulfill your promise."

Cheng Mo didn't intend to cause extra problems, and turned her head to look at Athena. Athena took off the backpack, opened the metal box that could shield the signal in the backpack, and found the "Cartier Blue Balloon". She didn't choose to hand it to her. Patani, who was next to her, handed it to Cheng Mo who was sitting opposite her.

Cheng Mo didn't dare to order Athena, so he could only stand up and take the watch, and handed it to Patani.

Patani didn't care about the strange atmosphere and Athena's inexplicable behavior. He quickly put the watch on his empty wrist, opened the panel to check the "DNA reading progress", and got up in a hurry, "I can't stay long, If there is anything, we will contact you through the secure mailbox. You should also leave here quickly, leave Xila, and save the night and dreams."

Cheng Mo nodded, and Patani turned around and walked out of the coffee shop quickly.

Seeing that Patani disappeared into the crowd, Cheng Mo also stood up and looked at Athena and said in a low voice, "Then let's go too!"

Athena stared at the kebabs on the table not far away, licked her lips, and said without turning her head, "I'm hungry, I want to eat meat."

Cheng Mo was speechless, thinking what time it was, and it was important to escape first, he coughed, trying to attract Athena's attention, but Athena didn't look at him at all, just staring at the kebabs on the table.Cheng Mo sat down helplessly, and whispered, "Can I eat while walking?"

Athena finally looked back at Cheng Mo, and shook her head seriously.

The current human skin mask can truly reflect facial expressions, which let Cheng Mo know that she has made a decision in such a posture.Cheng Mo probably understood Athena's character, and knew that even if Napoleon VII's people chased here with guns, she would probably sit and eat before leaving, so he stopped trying to persuade Athena and quickly raised his hand. He called the waiter with his hand and shouted: "Hey! Waiter, please bring me the menu again."

The waiter replied "wait a moment", and soon brought Cheng Mo the coffee they ordered just now, and gave Cheng Mo the menu, and Cheng Mo pushed the menu to Athena.

Athena didn't care about Cheng Mo's urging eyes at all, she looked through carefully, and ordered five pieces of moussaka and five pieces of soufflaki under the surprised eyes of the waiter. Delicious snacks, she didn't order any of them.

Both are solid meat products, moussaka is a traditional Spanish delicacy tomato beef patty, and soufflage is a kebab platter.There is nothing strange about ordering these two dishes. The strange thing is that I ordered five servings each, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can finish.

So the waiter was a little surprised and asked: "Ma'am, are you sure you need to order five pieces of moussaka and five pieces of beef pie? Is this a bit too much?"

Athena, disguised as a woman with round face and freckles, looked up at the waiter, and said simply and clearly: "Hurry up, I'm hungry."

Hearing Athena's unkind voice, the waiter shrugged his shoulders and said "Okay", put away the menu and turned to leave.

The two of them didn't talk while waiting, Cheng Mo stared out the window to observe the flow of people, while Athena turned her head and continued to stare at another table not far away to eat.It wasn't until the waiter filled the square table with five servings of moussaka and five servings of soufflés that Athena looked back at the beef patties and kebabs on the table, rolled her throat involuntarily, and started eating as if no one else was there. stand up.

Athena doesn't talk about manners when eating, it has nothing to do with the word "elegant" at all. Cheng Mo is used to watching beautiful girls eat slowly, and has never seen a girl who can eat so boldly.She grilled beef patties on skewers with her left hand and took a bite with her right hand, her cheeks agitated like a bellows being pulled, her rosy lips were covered with grease, she looked like a panda eating bamboo with a naive look.

Right now, the fat girl with freckles and round face made up by Athena is quite suitable for such a clean and neat way of eating. Ke Chengmo imagined that if it was Athena's original appearance, it would be a bit inconsistent. It feels like a The extremely foreign-style porcelain doll-like beautiful girl speaks Northeast dialect with a taste of Northeast China.
"Maybe she's really hungry." Cheng Mo thought, but looking at it, Athena's food was really delicious, making Cheng Mo feel like he was watching a food show.He also felt hungry immediately, and it happened that he hadn't eaten much in the past two days, and his stomach let out a "cuck, cluck, cluck".

In the silence, the sound was very obvious. Athena stopped chewing, like a cat protecting food, looked at Cheng Mo vigilantly.

Cheng Mo coughed, and said to the fragrant Moussaka with no expression on his face: "Borrow one, borrow one, eat first, I'll order and return it to you."

Athena shook her head like a rattle, "You already owe me two Ouroboros, you can't owe that much."

Cheng Mo couldn't figure out Athena's brain circuit, and didn't know how she equated food with Ouroboros, so he could only give up communicating with Athena, called the waiter again, and ordered some food.

After eating, Athena returned to her calm appearance, not even looking at the plates on the table, as if the empty plates on the table were all Cheng Mo's masterpieces.Cheng Mo finished his share of pancakes quickly, took a sip of coffee, and said, "You can go!"

Athena nodded, moved her chair and stood up, passed by Cheng Mo and walked straight out.

Cheng Mo was stunned for a moment, and he quickly grabbed Athena's arm and shouted in a low voice: "Hey! You haven't paid the bill yet!"

Athena turned her head and looked down at Cheng Mo, and said inexplicably, "Pay the bill? What do you mean?"

Cheng Mo pointed to the empty plates on the table, "Don't you pay for what you eat?"

Athena glanced at the table, as if she felt that she had eaten so much. She said in a low voice, "Do you have no money? I seldom go out to eat. Even if I do, others pay for it. So... I never bring money when I go out." .”

"I have money? I was imprisoned by you on the 33rd floor of Hydera for almost two years. Where did I get the money? Don't make such a joke!?"

Athena snorted coldly and said, "I'm not joking."

Cheng Mo took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Then you wait." Then Cheng Mo stood up.

"What are you waiting for?" Athena asked puzzled.

"Wait for me. Run!" Cheng Mo grabbed Athena's arm and dragged her towards the door of the cafe.
