Arknights is too real, right?

"Bah, bah, bah!"

Mesha's military boots made a rhythmic sound, and every step she took was exactly the same. This military quality was obviously not maintained deliberately, but more like an instinct that went deep into the bone marrow.

At this time, the courtyard of the military area was very quiet, because the residents were all senior officers and their families, and their quality was still very high. Even after dinner, they would not be like ordinary people, sitting in groups gnawing watermelon and bragging under the big tree. .

After walking for about 10 minutes, General Grissom's residence was still not there. Xia Feng made a rough estimate and found that the area of ​​​​this military area should be more than twice the size of the Golden Coast Villa area in Happy City.

As Meisha walked on the road in silence, the atmosphere was somewhat dull.

Xia Feng coughed lightly and tentatively asked Meisha who was leading the way.

"That Miss Mesa."

"Please don't call me miss. I am the general's deputy and my rank is major general. You can also call me by my name directly."

Xia Feng was a little embarrassed to be interrupted.

"Uh, okay, Chief Mesa, how long do we have to go until we get there?"

The title "sir" is usually used by subordinates to address their superiors. Meisha didn't know whether Xia Feng really didn't know or was calling her this intentionally to tease her, but she obviously didn't want to get too involved in the title.

"We're almost there. We'll have to walk for about 5 minutes. Sorry, the military area is closed to vehicles at night. Unless there is an emergency mission, no one will be exempted."

Xia Feng nodded and continued to ask.

"Sir Mesa, how many officers live in this military area."

"It's confidential."

"How many guards are there in total?"

"It's confidential."

Xia Feng just wanted to chat casually when he had nothing to say. He didn't expect that his chat would be so unsuccessful this day.

"Sir Mesha, what are you usually responsible for?"

Seeing that Meisha didn't speak, Xia Feng asked tentatively.

"Is this also a secret?"

"It's a secret."

"puff!"

A Guang, who was behind him, almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Xia Feng quickened his pace and walked to the position side by side with Meisha. He tilted his head and asked angrily.

"Chief Mesa, do you have a boyfriend? Wait, don't tell me this is also confidential."

Mesha's expression did not change at all, and a quiet voice came from her mouth.

"This is not confidential, but I refuse to answer this meaningless question."

"Hey, why does it make no sense? Wait, don't walk so fast."

5 minutes later.

A stern two-story building appeared in front.

Different from other military houses, there were six soldiers standing guard in front of the courtyard at this time. In addition, there were two people wearing different styles of military uniforms waiting outside the door. They seemed to be someone's accompanying guards.

Mesha walked to the door, and the guard on guard immediately gave a military salute. Then, Xia Feng and others were taken directly into the living room on the first floor.

After walking into this two-story building, Xia Feng realized that it was more like an office building than a residence.

There is no decoration in the living room on the first floor. Apart from the regular black leather sofa, there are some simple tables and chairs, and four large characters hanging on the main wall, [Bold and Loyal].

In addition to the guards at the gate, there are two guards carrying sabers in the living room at this time. It can be seen from the eyes of these two people that they are real masters.

Mesha stepped forward and whispered a few words to one of the guards, and then returned to Xia Feng and his party.

"The general is receiving the military commander who is coming from the capital. You can sit here and wait for a while."

Xia Feng asked with some concern.

"Sir, coming from the capital? It's so far away. What's important? Can't you make a phone call or write a letter?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

After that, Mesha walked up to the second floor alone.

A Guang, who was next to him, sat down and tugged at the corner of Xia Feng's clothes, and whispered something with a mean smile on his face.

"Brother Feng, stop talking awkwardly, you can't handle this female major general."

"Get lost."

In fact, this is really not Xia Feng's lack of words. The capital of Victoria is Londinium, and this is the southern border. He really can't think of any military orders that require people from the Imperial Military Commission to come here to convey them. If it is really important, If it couldn't be communicated by phone or letter, then Gleason must have gone to Londinium in person to receive the order.

Of course, it may be that he is overthinking. Although it is a bit unreasonable, maybe this is the rule of the Victoria military.

But for some reason, this seemingly insignificant thing made Xia Feng couldn't help but think of the political news he saw in the Victoria People's Weekly yesterday.

After sitting in the living room on the first floor for more than 20 minutes, Major General Mesha finally came down from the second floor wearing military boots.

Walking to the sofa, Mesha said to Xia Feng.

"If the three of you want to meet the general, then your friend's weapons need to be temporarily kept by me. No one can bring weapons to meet the general. This is the rule."

Xia Feng stood up.

"No, I can go up alone. The two of them are waiting for me here."

"Okay, come with me."

Xia Feng followed Meisha up the stairs when a middle-aged man came down.

This man was wearing a military uniform different from that of the border guards. He was about 40 years old. His face was a little gloomy at this time, and he was obviously in a very unhappy mood. The moment Xia Feng passed by him, he clearly noticed a faint feeling. murderous intent.

Xia Feng stopped on the stairs. When he turned around, the man had already left the living room.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Feng turned around and asked Meisha.

"Who was that officer just now?"

"He is a member of the Military Commission from the capital. You don't have to worry about it. It has nothing to do with you."

"oh."

Xia Feng followed Mesha thoughtfully and continued to walk up to the second floor.

Walking up to the second floor, there was a corridor in front of him. This kind of indoor layout was still rare, which made Xia Feng feel more like an office building than a residence.

There are also two guards standing outside the door of the room at the end. Although this is not a military camp, General Grissom's residence is still strict.

Walking to the door, Mesha nodded slightly to the two guards guarding the door, and then looked at Xia Feng.

"Go in, the general is waiting for you inside."

"OK."

Taking a deep breath, Xia Feng opened the door and walked in.

Putting aside the irrelevant suspicions in his mind, Xia Feng will clearly and rigorously explain the reason for his coming to General Gleason, and he must win Gleeson's trust.

This room continued the simple style of the living room. General Gleason was sitting behind a desk, gently pinching the acupuncture points between his eyes with his fingers.

Hearing the footsteps, he opened his eyes. Although he looked a little tired, his eyes were still sharp.

"Xia Feng, you're here. I'm sorry that I was a little busy and didn't go to greet you in person, and I made you wait for so long."

"It doesn't matter, your military affairs are still important."

General Gleason motioned to the chair in front of his desk.

"Please sit down. You saved my life. Don't be too formal. By the way, you said on the phone yesterday that you wanted my help with something. What was it?"

After Xia Feng sat down, he calmly sorted out his words.

"General, you may be a little surprised by my next request, so I feel the need to explain in advance that this is not a hasty decision, but a plan made after careful consideration."

"Oh? What's the plan?"

There was no trace of worry or cowardice in Xia Feng's eyes.

"Next, I will tell you the complete plan and make it clear to you seriously that the existence of Black Feather will not threaten the existing rule of the Victoria royal family."
