Byron's Blade

The agreed time with Lanny is 11:13 pm on November 04th.Mu Li asked what kind of dinner it was, and Lanny told her that it was a dinner hosted by Lieutenant General Smith, the chief of the military and police, and the purpose was to prepare for the upcoming presidential election in January next year.

The federal president is held by seven generals in rotation, and the term of office is only one year.Such a short period of time is to prevent the general who will become the president from using the power of the president to formulate policies that are beneficial to him, which hinders the checks and balances among the seven generals.The general who becomes president cannot stand for election for the next three years.The president of the 149th year of the new calendar is General Friesman. The president of the coming year will be stationed in the city of Artemis, General Luojia, General Petrov in the City of Dianyi, and General Pierre in the City of Aphrodite. Chosen from three.

Needless to say, Luo Jia, Dean Yang Sheng spent the whole morning introducing Luo Jia's life in detail to Mu Li and his trainees.Mu Li had also read the materials of the other two generals before, and had a rough understanding of them.

The city of Dianyi is garrisoned by General Petrov, whose full name is Ivan Nikolaevich Petrov, Russian.Dianyi City is located at the northernmost tip of the Federation, also known as the City of Ice and Snow. The annual average temperature is below 10°C, and the coldest winter can reach minus 40 to 10°C.Winter begins in October every year, and it will enter a relatively warm season in early May of the following year.Since most of the city of Dianyi is in the territory of old Russia, there are a large number of Russians living there.The garrison general Petrov is also a hereditary general, with iron and blood in power, and has a very lofty status in the hearts of Russians.It is a place where factories gather. 5% of the federal military factories are located in the city of Dianyi, and many private factories are also located in Dianyi. Therefore, General Petrov actually controls the military industry of the federal army.

The city of Aphrodite is garrisoned by General Pierre, whose full name is Els Pierre, of British descent.The City of Aphrodite is also known as the "City of Science and Technology Culture". It is where a large number of scientific research institutes, experimental centers, and colleges of higher learning gather in the Federation.At the same time, it is also the most important cultural reserve center of the Federation. The Federal Library, Art Palace, Art Museum, and Grand Theater, including the extremely important R&D center, maintenance center, and operation center of the Jiushen system, are all located in the city of Aphrodite. .Els Pierre is the most highly educated general among the seven generals. He graduated from the Rudolph Military Academy with a doctorate in information engineering. He once taught at his alma mater for a period of time and is now an honorary professor of the Rudolph Military Academy.The most typical academic among the seven generals, he is now leading many research projects of the Federal Academy of Sciences.

It is worth mentioning that the highest academy Rudolph Military Academy is not located in Aphrodite, but in the main city of Gaia.This is because Rudolf, the only Grand Marshal of the Federation, happened to also serve as the President of the Federation when he founded the academy, and he was taking his post in Gaia alone.He proposed that Gaia is the heart of the federation, and he hoped that talented people from all over the world could gather in the heart of the federation, so Gaia was chosen as the site of the Supreme Military Academy.

According to Lanny, Lieutenant General Smith has been working hard for this presidential election.On the surface, Lieutenant General Smith has always been a member of the Friesman Party, and has a close relationship with the Friesman family, and even has relatives.But in fact, a suspicion arose about a few years ago, and he wanted to choose another owner to prepare for his future promotion.Up to now, he has prepared this dinner with great fanfare and invited a large number of nobles and wealthy people, hoping to achieve his own goal.As a political figure, tact is a necessary quality, so this dinner, including Lanny, a group of people from the Friesman Party are also invited.Lieutenant General Smith will never tear up his face with the old master until he confirms the new master.

Mu Li asked Lan Ni who Lieutenant General Smith wanted to support.Lanny didn't answer her, only that she didn't know.But Mu Li always felt that Lan Ni knew something in her heart, but she didn't want to tell her.Lieutenant General Smith is the highest officer of the military and police, and is also closely related to Mu Li now. Mu Li has a bad premonition in his heart, probably this dinner will not be that simple.

The day before the dinner party, that is, on November 11th, Mu Li finished training in the afternoon and was a little tired. He bought dinner from the cafeteria and planned to go back to the dormitory to rest.Rui Qiao has been running outside every day for the past two days, and has never seen anyone.After all, she is in the patrol squadron, unlike Mu Li, she has a lot of patrol tasks every day.

As a result, as soon as he walked to the door of the dormitory, he saw Mary standing there with a package in his arms, constantly looking towards the road, and when he saw Mu Li, he smiled and stretched out his hand to beckon.

Mu Li went forward to meet him, and asked in a little surprise:

"Sister Mary? Why did you come to my dormitory suddenly without saying hello to me in advance?"

"I'm afraid you're busy, so I dare not disturb you." Mary said gently.

Mu Li looked around, and then said: "Come back to the room with me."

The two quickly returned to Mu Li's dormitory, and Mu Li was relieved until he locked the entrance door.Then while changing shoes, he asked Mary:

"What's the matter with me?"

Mary stood behind Mu Li, followed Mu Li to change shoes, and said:

"I brought the ingredients to cook for you."

"Uh...I bought dinner."

"It's okay, I'll make some more dishes for you, don't you happen to have class tomorrow? Pack up the extra and send it to Major Friesman."

"Oh, good." Mu Li nodded.

"I have been saying to thank Major Friesman, but it has been delayed until now. If Major Friesman likes to eat, I will often make it for her in the future."

As Mary spoke, she carried a bunch of ingredients into the kitchen.Mu Li put the dinner in his hands on the dining table, washed his hands, took off his coat, and started to prepare for tomorrow.

Lan Ni gave thousands of instructions, saying that she must dress properly and formally tomorrow.Mu Li searched for a long time. In addition to military uniforms in her closet, there are still military uniforms, and the most formal clothing is only military uniforms.The mecha division's military uniform was definitely inappropriate, except for the military and police uniform that had just been issued and hadn't been worn yet.

The main color is blue and black, and the edge is rolled with silver wire.The same double breasted, white shirt and black tie, armed belt with saber and pistol/gun.When Mu Li took out the clothes, she found that the dress was crumpled, and she began to feel a little worried, it would definitely not be suitable to wear out like this.But there is no such thing as an iron in her dormitory, what should I do?

Just as she was worrying, Mary had already made the first dish and served it out.Seeing Mu Li holding the clothes standing there in a daze, Mary asked strangely:

"Ari, what are you doing?"

"Oh, I'm going to attend the dinner with Major Friesman tomorrow, but my dress, you see, is all wrinkled, and I don't have an iron." Mu Li replied.

Mary put the plate on the table, and said:

"Then leave it to me. I just bought an iron at home. I'll go back and iron it for you today. You come back tomorrow and go after you put it on."

"That really helped a lot." Mu Li said happily, then found a package, folded the clothes, put them in, and handed them to Mary.

Mary smiled and said, "You, a girl, don't even have a decent dress. Maybe you will often attend such high society banquets in the future, so you can buy more clothes."

Mu Li smiled: "I'm a soldier. I stay in the barracks all day and wear military uniforms every day. I don't need any clothes. Military uniforms are enough."

Mary shook her head, but said nothing.

Afterwards, Mary cooked three dishes for Mu Li, ate dinner with Mu Li, and chatted about the current situation.Recently, Dora has been self-studying at home, and she has bought all the books on the list that Mu Li sent her.Since she didn't go to school since she was 9 years old, the little girl has always been eager to study and learn knowledge.Besides doing some housework every day, Mary just bought some needles and thread for needlework, and the mother and daughter lived comfortably.

At around 8 o'clock in the evening, Mary left. Mu Li wanted to see her off, but was declined.Mu Li didn't insist either, and seeing Mary off, he went back to his room, took a shower early and went to sleep.

On the morning of November 11th, Mu Li trained as usual, and after lunch, he rushed to Mary's house to change clothes.This afternoon the college has classes, and it ends at 13 o'clock. After the class, Mu Li happened to meet Lan Ni.Rui Qiao didn't go into Mary's house, and sat in the car with the driver, waiting for Mu Li to come out.

"Okay, it looks really handsome." Mary helped Mu Li straighten his collar and said with a smile.

Mu Li chuckled, then took his leave and left.

Back in the car, Rui Qiao immediately whistled frivolously and joked:

"Hey, the big beauty is back, look at this outfit, she's so handsome!"

Mu Li gave her a blank look, and scolded: "You are so poor."

As the driver drove, a wretched smile appeared on Rui Qiao's face, and said with a smile:

"It looks like you can take down Missy tonight."

Mu Li looked at her speechlessly, what was going on in this guy's mind?

"Come on, I wish you all the best."

"roll!"

During class, Mu Li attracted the attention of the whole class, and even Dean Yang Sheng glanced at her from time to time.Her face was dry, and she thought that she would never do this kind of thing in the future, and she still took her clothes with her, and she would change them at that time.

After class, he hurriedly bid farewell to Rui Qiao, and fled to Lan Ni's office.She didn't meet anyone in the corridor this time, and knocked on the door of Lanny's office, and a strange female voice came from inside:

"Which one is it?"

"Hi, I'm Mu Li, I have an appointment with Major Friesman."

The door opened quickly, revealing the face of a little girl with freckles. After seeing Mu Li, she froze for a moment, her face blushed inexplicably, and said shyly:

"Captain Mu, come in, the eldest lady is changing clothes, she will be fine soon."

"Oh, good." Mu Li replied.

Walking into the office, Mu Li saw the whole picture of the little girl clearly.She looked 16 or 17 years old, with an Asian face, very young, and she was wearing a maid uniform.

"Captain, please sit down and wait a moment, the eldest lady is in the back room." She said.

"May I ask who you are?" Mu Li asked as he untied the saber hanging from his waist and sat down on the sofa with the saber in his hands.

"I am a servant of the Freesman family, and my name is Yinghua." The little girl introduced herself with a blushing face.

Oh, it turned out to be a domestic servant. It's not surprising that such a big family has hired servants.It's just that this child is really shy of strangers, and blushes like this when he sees strangers.

"A Li, is it you?" Lan Ni's voice came from the back room.

When Mu Li first heard her calling herself "A Li", her heart skipped a beat again. Remembering that the eldest lady had changed her address before, she breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and replied:

"Yes major."

"Wait a minute, I'll be right away, Yinghua, pour her a cup of tea." Lan Ni gave orders in the back room.

"Yes, miss." Yinghua bowed towards the back room, then brewed a cup of black tea and served it to Muli.Mu Li looked at the tea in the cup, hesitated for a moment, took a small sip, found that it was normal tea, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong? Is it not to your taste?" Yinghua asked seeing Mu Li's strange behavior.

"No, don't worry about it." Mu Li smiled at her.

Then the little girl lowered her head blushing again.

Seeing that she was uncomfortable, Mu Li kindly chatted with her to divert her attention:

"how old are you?"

"18, Captain." Yinghua's voice was as low as a mosquito humming, if it wasn't for Mu Li's good hearing, she might not be able to hear it.

"Sit down, aren't you tired from standing?" Mu Li said.

Yinghua just shook her head, then subconsciously took two steps back.

Mu Li smiled wryly in his heart, am I scary?She stopped talking, and the atmosphere suddenly froze.Fortunately, it didn't take long for the door of the back room to open, and Lanny, who was dressed up, came out. Behind her, there was a maid who helped her lift her skirt.

Lanny chose a fiery red evening gown dress today, with an off-the-shoulder backless waist, the skirt was flared with a bustle, and the back hem was very long, dragging the floor.Exquisite makeup was painted on the face, and the phoenix eyes were outlined more elegantly and charmingly. The red lips were like flames, the long hair was coiled up, and the expensive necklace and earrings were hung. When she walked out with a blank face, she exuded a strong aura.Mu Li's eyes were straightened, he couldn't say a word for a long time, he just stared at Lan Ni.

"What are you looking at, why don't you hurry up and help me." Lan Ni gave Mu Li a blank look.

"Oh." Mu Li stood up and walked over, and then realized that she didn't know what Lanny wanted her to do.

"You carry me downstairs," Lanny said.

"what?"

"Oh, I accidentally twisted my foot when I was trying on high heels yesterday, and it hurts like hell now. You carry me downstairs and into the car, hurry up, don't waste time."

"Are you okay, are you still wearing high heels?" Mu Li asked.

"Of course, this skirt must be worn with high heels." Lanny took it for granted.

Mu Li is speechless... Can you still walk like this?Do you want to fight like this, miss?

Mu Li looked at Yinghua, and the little girl immediately looked away.She looked at another maid, who looked back at her blankly while holding up her skirt.

Well, it means I have to come, right?The corners of Mu Li's mouth twitched, and he went back to get the saber, hung it on his waist again, then approached Lan Ni, wrapped her waist with one hand, hooked her legs with the other, and hugged her horizontally.Lan Ni hugged her neck very naturally, and lay on Mu Li's shoulder, with a fox-like smile on her face.

With nephrite in his arms, and the scent of fragrance, Mu Li felt drunk. Suddenly, Rui Qiao's words echoed in his ears:

"I wish you all the best."

Hehe, Rui Qiao's speech is accurate, almost catching up with the oracle.
