The power of a meal lasts well into the middle of the night.

The stars lit up the lights outside the window, and the person who should be sleeping in the room was still lying on the bed rubbing his stomach, and kept muttering: "A traitor appeared beside me, and together with the wolves, he dug me into a bottomless pit." .”

Cao Yu was a little confused by his muttering, and quietly yawned and said, "I've already admitted my mistake."

Cheng Xiu patted the bed: "After a murderer admits his mistake, he will also be punished by law."

"Then how does the 'law' plan to sanction me?" Cao Yu asked.

"Bring me some Jianweixiaoshi tablets." The tone of righteous indignation changed suddenly, and she sighed softly, "Today's dinner is really delicious."

Cao Yu got out of bed to get the medicine, and pointed to the electronic clock on the wall: "It's a new day." He fed Cheng Xiu the medicine, sat by the window and rubbed his stomach.

Cheng Xiu curled her toes comfortably: "Are you really going to join the Mecha Club?"

Cao Yu nodded.

"Don't you think they're weird?"

"Aren't we normal in the eyes of others?"

"..." Cheng Xiu patted the hand on his chest, "Who is to blame? He is such a flowery and innocent young man who spends all day mixing with a faceless and skinless older boy, visually he can no longer maintain his innocence gone."

Cao Yu was so excited in the middle of the night that he had nowhere to say, so he could only pinch his face: "Grow up quickly!"

Cheng Xiu said: "Don't change the subject, I haven't finished talking about the Mecha Club of Qingyang College. Don't you think their attitude is weird? If I didn't know that I wash my face very clean every day, I would think that the left side wrote 'Win' is written to the right of 'Lin'."

Cao Yu said: "Thirsty for talents is the consistent ethos of Qingyang College."

Cheng Xiu let out a sneer.

Only then did Cao Yu say, "I will investigate clearly before joining."

Cheng Xiu said: "Yeah, maybe there is something wrong with them internally, and they are looking for a scapegoat."

Cao Yu smiled.It may not be necessary to find a replacement for the dead ghost, but there must be something wrong internally.

On the second day, the senior high school held a small awarding ceremony, and Cao Tong won the first prize for outstanding students with a bonus of [-].

Cheng Xiu was not a student in the high school, so he didn't win the award, but afterwards, the head teacher revealed that as long as he maintained his standard in the final exam, he could officially transfer to the high school next semester.

It doesn't matter whether he transfers to Cheng Xiu or not. Education is completely useless to a professional mecha racer. Cao Yu was quite happy and took him to the cafeteria to celebrate.

Cheng Xiu couldn't help but miss Qingyang College's delicious food: "Even if you find out that there is something wrong with the Jijia Club, don't show it. We'll eat up all the meals in their ten cafeterias."

Cao Yu rubbed his head with a smile: "When we study at Qingyang College, there will be many opportunities."

Cheng Xiu pushed his hand away noncommittally: "The frequency of your doing this action recently is second only to zipping your trousers."

Cao Yu: "..."

The two talked and laughed and went back to the dormitory. On the way, they met a middle-aged man who claimed to be Pang Heyuan's secretary.He handed Cao Yun two invitation letters: "Welcome to the first presidential debate held in the Holy Light Auditorium on Saturday morning."

After he left, Cheng Xiu brought the invitation letter and looked through it curiously: "The last time I watched the debate, it was still on the screen. When the candidates of the two parties scolded me, they spoke with unprecedented unity. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to come to the scene in person. "

Cao Yu said: "After the debate, I should go to Qingyang College in time. You can be a quiet audience this time."

Cheng Xiu said: "Every time I see them scold me, I will fight back."

Cao Yu said, "How do you refute?"

Cheng Xiu said: "Paint his face on the screen."

Cao Yu said: "...you must restrain yourself this time."

On the day of the debate, Cheng Xiu got up early, picked out a handsome little suit from the closet, and spontaneously tied a bow tie.

Cao Yu said: "The invitation letter doesn't require formal attire."

Cheng Xiu straightened her appearance in front of the mirror: "Watching the political infighting drama, you must be full of energy, dedicate yourself to and support it."

Cao Yu stood behind him, bowed his head and kissed the top of his hair: "Then they are really honored."

Cheng Xiu turned her head and glared at him while straightening her cuffs: "Do you think that just changing a movement can reduce my calculation of your frequency? You are so naive."

Standing in the bathroom, Cao Huang was dealing with the recently grown fine stubble in front of the mirror: "I thought you were concerned about the zipper."

"...Now I'm starting to mind."

After breakfast, I browsed through the resumes of the two candidates before going out. When I arrived at the Holy Light Auditorium, there were still more than ten minutes before leaving, but there were already many spectators waiting to enter the hall.Some of them are potbellied and have a relaxed look, some are skinny and look bitter and vengeful, some men are well-dressed, and some women are sloppy, which can be regarded as reflecting the various attitudes of the people of the entire star country to the greatest extent.

Cheng Xiu wondered why the audience was so diverse.

Cao Yu replied: "After the debate between the two sides, there will be an hour of free audience questions. A diverse audience can reflect the current situation of the country to a greater extent. However, what you see with your eyes may not be the truth."

After hearing the words, Cheng Xiu looked at the group of people again, and found some clues.For example, the slovenly woman had exquisitely manicured nails, and the bony man had a valuable gold watch hidden in his sleeve.

"Interesting?" he asked.

Cao Yu said: "You can understand it as the discipline of the army."

Cheng Xiu said: "The discipline of the army has never been applied to civilians."

Cao Huang sighed: "So you will never know how terrible it is to have no discipline."

Tickets began to be checked at the gate, and they walked in along the crowd.Pang Heyuan treated them well and gave them two seats close to the stage. Not far behind the host, they could clearly see the platforms of the two candidates.

The audience did their work in an orderly manner, and the host announced the order of the scene, such as not making loud noises, not interrupting the candidates' speeches at will, etc.

Afterwards, the gates were closed, the lights were adjusted on the spot, and the candidate's team came out from the backstage from time to time, whispering with the host.After another ten minutes passed, the host finally announced the start of the debate and explained the rules.

The debate will last for three hours and 10 minutes, divided into three parts, and the content will be the country's internal affairs.

The first part is to state their political opinions, each for 10 minutes.

The second part is to ask questions freely about the political opinions of the other party.The same three 10 minutes each.

The third part is questions from the audience.

There is a 10-minute break between each of the three sections.

After the host's explanation, the candidates from both sides are invited to come to the stage.

The candidate of the People's Voice Party is Qin Kai, who is in his early 50s. He is a rising star in the Xingguo political arena in recent years. He is popular for his personable appearance and humorous conversation.In contrast, Xu Haitong, a candidate for the Progressive Party, has a very ordinary appearance. When he smiles, he will show a mouthful of black and yellow teeth, which greatly reduces his impression points.

However, Cao Yu knew in his heart that although the Shijin Party gave up the presidential election this term, it did not give up adding obstacles to its competitors.This candidate's qualifications, image, and talent are not outstanding, but he has a very powerful ability-spraying people.It seems that Shi Jin Dang has made up his mind, even if he sees the People's Voice Party come to power, he will be disgraced.

Sure enough, after Qin Kai finished his opening remarks, Xu Haitong immediately took up the topic: "I have only had one girlfriend since I was born, and that is my wife. I am afraid that there is no way for Director Qin to often appear with beauties in major events." In the newspaper, not too many people know me, so the self-introduction will be a little longer, I hope everyone will not find me annoying."

There was good-natured laughter from the audience.

Xu Haitong ignored Qin Kai's embarrassing expression, and memorized his resume on his own: "My biggest advantage over Director Qin is that I will never appear on the impeachment list of the Legislative Assembly because of a sex scandal."

The host said: "Next, I would like Director Qin to make a statement first."

Qin Kai said: "Mr. Xu Qiu mentioned the advantage just now, and I think I have one too. At least I don't need to go to the prison for consultation." This is ironic that Hua Changlin is prosecuted and may face more than seven years in prison.

Cheng Xiu, who was sitting in the auditorium, shook her head.Qin Kai has been irritated by Xu Haitong, and started to speak unscrupulously, which is not a good sign.

However, Qin Kai has been immersed in the political arena for so many years, and his skills in adjusting his emotions are first-rate. He quickly cleared up his emotions and expounded on the three issues of economy, education, and medical security. practice, and sharply criticized the current immigration policy.

"As we all know, the immigrant star is so bad that it can't be worse. The previous and previous candidates of the People's Voice Party have said so, but when they said it, they never thought that the immigrant star could become even worse."

There were a few chuckles from the audience.

Qin Kai said: "There is no need for foresight. History has already told us what a huge and far-reaching mistake Cao Xie proposed at the time. Citizens of Starland cry out in despair. A year ago, a little girl from an unknown immigrant star asked me if she would be able to vote if I ran for president... I still can't face her unmanned pair Clear eyes. I swear that if I become president, I will completely reform the immigrant star and make the 'Dream Project' worthy of its name!"

When the host analyzed and summarized Qin Kai's political views, Cheng Xiu quietly glanced at Cao Tong.

Cao Yu smiled, but his eyes were cold.

Cheng Xiu thought: I don't know if Cao Yu regretted it.If he hadn't made such a choice, Cao Xie's life would have been extremely glorious. His family background, experience, appearance, talent...everything was perfect and impeccable.Will not leave a mess to be criticized.

"Are you only now realizing that my side profile is fascinating?" Cao Yu tilted his head and said softly.

Cheng Xiu nodded.

Cao Yu was taken aback.

Cheng Xiu said, "It looks better than the front."

Cao Yu: "..."

The host announced that Xu Haitong began to explain.

Xu Haitong said: "First of all, I want to continue the story that Director Qin just told. If the little girl is really as young as he said, without personnel, I think she should not be old enough to vote now. Is she from the immigrant star."

The audience burst into laughter.

Xu Haitong continued: "Also, there is no unknown planet in Xingguo. It should have a name with a letter in front and a number in the back. Maybe because your math is not very good, so you ignored it."

Another burst of laughter.

Although Qin Kai kept smiling, his face turned dark.

Cheng Xiu felt a little pity.If Xu Haitong was more capable or had a stronger background, he might really become a president who can relieve the people's boredom.How exciting it is to turn on the news every day and watch him bombard other officials.

Xu Haitong said: "As for the 'Dream Project', I must emphasize that at that time, it received nearly 90.00% of the votes in the National Council. I think everyone knows how difficult it is. Not to mention The easy thing is that he has the support of the only seven-star general in the history of Star Country. It is a long and complicated process from proposal to perfection to implementation, and countless people will participate in the process. I want to emphasize one more point,' The third implementer of the Dream Project was from the Volunteer Party, and the negative evaluation of the 'Dream Project' started from then. Well, I think I should save some time for my political opinions, although, I think everyone What I would rather see now is Chief Qin's face."

His political opinions are not as detailed as Qin Kai's. Many details are rough and the content is empty. It seems that Xu Haitong's focus is not on this. After explaining, he was very obviously relieved, and then stared at Qin Kai with a smile.

Anyone with eyes can tell that Xu Haitong came here to target him today.

The host said: "Now is the time for the debate between the two sides. Chief Xu Qiu first raised questions to Director Qin. My suggestion is that Director Qin proposed a plan of 'free basic medical care and subsidy for major diseases' just now. But we all know that, The seriousness of the disease is unpredictable. Please ask Mr. Xu Qiu."

Xu Haitong: "Satisfy the host. What kind of divination will Director Qin plan to use to budget the future medical subsidy expenses?"

Qin Kai said unhurriedly: "Yes, our team has made a very detailed budget through the analysis of medical expenses in recent years, and also assessed the government's affordability, and came up with ways to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, including Adjustment measures for drug prices.”

Xu Haitong said, "You mean improvement?"

"No, of course it's lower."

"According to the cost price?" Xu Haitong said, "You must not know that medicine needs to be researched and developed before production."

Qin Kai said: "I have included it in my drug price calculation formula. However, the price of drugs on the market is still much higher. I think this citizen's medical expenses have increased a lot of unnecessary consumption. "

The debate between the two went into daylight.

The host had to interrupt aloud and brought the topic to education.

Before Xu Haitong opened his mouth, Qin Kai had already acted preemptively: "I heard that there was a complaint case in Capital University a few days ago, and the protagonist's surname was Hua. What a coincidence, isn't it?"

Cheng Xiu looked at Cao Yu.

Cao Yu explained in a low voice: "It's Hua Jiyu. She squeezed out a place for a graduate student and gave it to a friend's daughter."

Cheng Xiu said: "If you don't reject her, you will be one of the protagonists of the scandal now."

Cao Yu said, "You must be another protagonist."

Cheng Xiu said, "I have no intention of agreeing."

"Then it's impossible for me to agree." Cao Yu glanced at him tenderly, "You are always another protagonist in my story."

Cheng Xiu raised her eyebrows.

The two were chatting lingeringly below, and the stage was already so hot that it would catch fire.

Xu Haitong ridiculed Qin Kai in a way that almost teared his face apart: "But which parent is willing to believe in the education plan of a middle-aged man who often invites underage girls to dinner?"

Qin Kai said: "You need to be responsible for your irresponsible words, deeds and accusations! My relationship with my wife is very loving and happy."

Xu Haitong said: "A typical love fairy tale between the president and the first lady. We usually have another word to describe it, which seems to be in harmony."

The host had to interrupt the intense personal attacks of the two: "Now it's Chief Qin's turn to ask Chief Xu Qiu a question."

Qin Kai said: "I'm very curious about Captain Xu's amendments to the 'Dream Project'. May I ask how you will improve the situation where the government's orders have been unable to affect the remote immigrant galaxies."

Cao Hong frowned.Qin Kai's question is obviously not suitable to be raised in the debate.What voters want to see in the debate is the bright future of this country, not how dark it is now.Positively pointing out that the government is incompetent will cause voters to have negative sentiments towards the government.

Xu Haitong seized this clue and said with a smile: "I don't know which government is so incompetent, but I think it must not be my government!"

When it came to the final questioning session, it was the warmest scene.

Both Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu could see that the person who asked the question was well-arranged, with a polite attitude, and the question was full of traces of scripting. The two candidates were also very confident, and they answered almost without thinking.

Cheng Xiu yawned, regretting that she wasted time sitting here, if she knew it would be better to watch it on TV, at least, she could leave early.

The three-hour-two-ten-minute debate finally came to an end.Even though their faces were blushing and their necks were thick when they were fighting on the stage, Qin Kai and Xu Haitong still pretended to be friendly and hugged each other. As for whether they would hug each other, they desperately whispered Thomas in each other's ears, The audience will not know.

Cheng Xiu and Cao Yu took a car to Qingyang College to see the mechs.

Cheng Xiu excitedly explained the difference between the mechs produced by Auto Factory and Comex Group. "The biggest difference between them is that if the Auto factory produces a hot-selling model, Comex Group will definitely imitate it. The reverse is also the same."

Cao Yu asked, "So the difference is..."

Cheng Xiu said: "The company logo on the armor is different."

Cao Yu: "..." It's really a big difference.

The two went to the Jijia club familiarly, and there was no one there, only a few junior members were cleaning.Cheng Xiu enthusiastically asked where the others were going, but the answer he got was that they went to Linzhonghu University.

Cheng Xiu asked Cao Yun, "Have we been let go?"

Cao Yu said, "We came early."

"Then there is no other way..." He stared straight at Cao Yu with clear meaning.

Cao Yu nodded to express his understanding: "Problems that can be solved with food are not considered problems."

The two went to eat in the second canteen together.

Just like what the head of the mecha club boasted, every canteen of Qingyang College really has rare delicacies.After Cheng Xiu finished eating, her stomach became round again.Cao Yu was a little worried: "Will you grow sideways?"

Cheng Xiu said angrily: "I'm still growing, and I'm growing taller the fastest! I especially need nutrition supply."

Cao Yu seriously agreed.

After the two of them finished their meal, they went to the Jijia Club, and Senior Rabbit was here.

However, her face was not very good-looking, and she said a little embarrassedly: "Something happened to the mecha on the way, it may take a while before it can be delivered."

Cheng Xiu thought of the group leader and others going to Linzhonghu University, and asked tentatively, "Is it because of Linzhonghu University?"

Sister Rabbit's eyes flickered: "The head of the group went to negotiate, and we will talk about the details when he comes back."

She didn't want to talk about it, and Cheng Xiu and Cao Tong couldn't ask any more questions, so they just said a few words and came out.Senior Rabbit felt very sorry, and sent people all the way to the gate of the college, and was planning to call a car for them. When the group leader and the others came back, everyone had a look of grief and anger, and two of them even had color on their faces.

Senior Rabbit said, "What did the Comex Group say?"

The captain shook his head.

Senior Rabbit's face darkened.

The head of the group looked at Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu, showing a shameful expression, stretched out his hand that had been shrunk in his pocket, touched his neck, and said with a dry smile: "I can't show you the mecha anymore." After a pause, he said earnestly, "Although the mechas in Linzhonghu have caught up in recent years, their majors are not good. If you really want to engage in mecha-related careers in the future, you should give priority to the Central Military Academy."

Cheng Xiu grabbed his sleeve: "What happened?"

The leader shook his head, didn't want to say more, and led the others inside.

Senior Rabbit was entangled by Cheng Xiu. Under his coquetry and cuteness, she finally couldn't hold on anymore and said: "The year before last, a senior cheated in the competition, and we were suspended for one year. Went to Lake University. Last year we finally regained our qualifications for the competition, because the main players were not there, we were eliminated in the preliminary round. Linzhong Lake University took the opportunity to discredit our mecha club, many freshmen were unwilling to join us, and would rather cross The school is named under other schools."

Cheng Xiu asked: "Can you still be named across schools?"

Senior Sister Rabbit said: "The Mecha Club is special. Many giants in the professional Mecha League will come to inspect and scout for talents, so for those who want to take the professional route, the school is not important, the important thing is to have competitions." And good performance."

Cheng Xiu thought about it, then slapped her thigh: "I'll join you!"

Cao Yu: "..."
