"Pado, inform Vance and the others that the town's public security issues must be taken seriously during this period."
"If I find out that there's a serious conflict between the locals and the Leonese, he, as the head of the defense department, can retire early."
"Also, give this document to Wei Erwei and ask her to help build some engineering machinery first."
Sleepily, after rubbing her eyes, Padu took the briefcase.
Taking advantage of the other party's unpreparedness, she kissed him fiercely. Only then did the greedy little cat, who had tasted the marrow and knew how to enjoy it, speak with satisfaction:
"Boss, there's a student aid worker named Mei who asked me to help pass on a message to you—"
"She'll be waiting for you on the third floor of the library this afternoon."
"It looks like she has some problem that she needs to solve with you."
After saying that, Padu jumped out of the window without going through the main door at all.
Ming Yue was already accustomed to this.
Regarding the secretary's personal habits, he did not intend to correct them because it was her freedom.
After tidying up his desk, Ming Yue confirmed that there was no other arrangement on his schedule and then headed for the library.
Standing at the entrance, Ming Yue looked at the sparsely populated hall and did not step in immediately.
He knew very well:
This place is called a library, but it is actually just a three-story building next to the sanatorium.
With such an unattractive appearance, it is naturally difficult to attract other people's attention.
Before that, this was the base for the Sanlong Gang to train new recruits, teaching them all the hard-hitting prison-related techniques.
The locals naturally avoid it.
"When we have time later, the library must also be renovated."
"They can choose not to look at this thing, but they can't live without it."
After making the decision, Ming Yue quickly entered the building.
Upon seeing him arrive, the manager behind the counter immediately greeted him warmly:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Mayor!"
As if triggering a chain reaction, after she greeted Ming Yue, the others followed suit spontaneously.
Soon, everyone in the library knew that their mayor had arrived.
If Ming Yue hadn't stopped them, these people wouldn't even have the heart to continue reading.
After bypassing them, Ming Yue successfully walked up the stairs and reached the third floor.
His eyes passed through the rows of bookshelves, and finally, by the window, he found Mei sitting on the floor reading a book.
On the other side, Ming Yue saw Ying hiding in the corner and waving at him.
After Jiandan exchanged glances with Ying, he turned his attention back to Mei.
If the other party cannot give him a satisfactory explanation, Ming Yue plans to force things and help Mei graduate early.
Allowing a genius to grow slowly when time is tight is almost unacceptable to him.
At the same time, Mei immediately looked up when she heard footsteps getting closer and closer.
After seeing that the visitor was Ming Yue, she spoke bluntly:
"Mr. Mayor, I feel it is necessary to inform you——"
"Regarding Honkai energy, my father has a conclusion that sounds very terrifying."
"He believes that this thing, like the process of increasing entropy, will eventually lead to excessive chaos in the world."
"Simply put, Honkai energy will inevitably lead to irreversible changes in this world in the future."
In fact, after getting those books about Honkai energy, Mei often called her father to communicate.
After all, as a latecomer in the academic world, she never felt shameful in asking for advice from her predecessors.
The results were also impressive. Through communication with her father, Mei made rapid progress and has already reached the threshold of Honkai energy.
It was precisely because she had just started that she couldn't wait to remind Ming Yue.
If it is as described in the book, Honkai energy is simply a cancer of the world and will sooner or later bring disaster to mankind.
“A simple and clear metaphor.”
"Mei, you and your father are amazing."
After realizing the other party's rapid progress, Ming Yue couldn't help but sigh:
There is indeed an unbridgeable gap between geniuses and ordinary people.
In just a few days, Mei had already figured out the basic theory.
If she is given more time to develop peacefully, what kind of surprises will Mei bring to herself?
After hearing his praise, Mei accepted it with peace of mind.
For her, who aspires to become a scientist, fame and fortune are just by-products. There is no need to fear them or indulge in them.
Looking at Mingyue, Mei's expression suddenly became awkward:
"Well, Mr. Mayor, there is something I must apologize to you on behalf of my father."
"Without your consent, he sent information about Honkai energy to several professors, intending to spread the word about its harmful effects through his academic friends."
After standing up and bowing deeply to Ming Yue, Mei was about to express her guilt when she heard the phone in her pocket ringing.
Seeing her looking at him, Ming Yue nodded, indicating Mei not to worry about him.
After getting permission, Mei answered the phone.
But the next second, she received a piece of news that was like a bolt from the blue:
"Mei, never come back to Changkong City!"
"I have been targeted by a group of mysterious people, they-"
"Get out! Who allowed you in?!"
27 Mei: I can't forgive my stupid self
Mei was horrified as she listened to her father's desperate resistance over the phone.
She never imagined that her father, a world-renowned electromagnetic physicist, would encounter such a thing!
Then, she heard a very weak voice:
"Sorry, May."
"I have to go first."
"I've already written a will about the family assets and included you in it..."
Mei remained silent as several gunshots were heard from the other end of the line.
Her body went limp and her phone fell to the ground with a dull thud.
If Ming Yue hadn't seen the situation was not right and held her in his arms, Mei would have fallen to the ground.
Tears streaming down her face, she looked at Ming Yue with a dull gaze:
"why?"
Letting Mei cry silently, Mingyue hugged her and gave her an answer:
"Those who wantonly spread Honkai energy will be killed by the Fire-Chasing Moth."
"Dusk Town has experienced this once."
Mei stared at the man with eyes wide open, looking at him in confusion:
"why?"
Knowing that the other party was asking him why he gave those books to her, Ming Yue did not avoid the question:
"With your ability, you will come into contact with it sooner or later."
"I just open the door to another world for you in advance."
Hearing this, Mei finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
She never imagined that her habit of exploring and seeking would become a knife wielded against her family.
Mei has a clear understanding of right and wrong towards Mingyue and has no resentment in her heart.
She knew very well that the other party had never allowed her to spread the Honkai energy.
Instead, she secretly sent the content to her father without his permission.
If I had asked this man more questions before, this unexpected disaster could have been avoided!
For a long time, Mei cried until her face was wet with tears, and her voice was choked and trembling:
"Thank you, but I have to get out of here next."
"They killed my father, and they will definitely not let me go."
"You are a good person, I don't want to get you into trouble."
After saying that, Mei tried to break free from the other person's arms.
Although she had no specific answer as to where her future would go, the education she received since childhood made Mei not want to harm innocent people.
First, wander around to avoid being hunted by the fire moths, and then wait for an opportunity for revenge. This is the decision Mei has made hastily.
But to her surprise, the man's embrace was so warm that she couldn't escape.
After helping Mei put her glasses back on, Mingyue hugged her gently.
"Putting aside the issue of involvement, you probably don't know what Dusk Town was like before."
"If you leave now, where can you go?"
"Although it's ironic, the Fire Moth is not a regional organization, but a military-industrial complex that spans the globe."
"Not to mention Changkong City, even Mu Continent has their presence..."
Without saying anything, Mei listened quietly to the other party's analysis.
From Ming Yue's remarks, she finally had a general understanding of the Fire-Chasing Moth's strength.
However, the clearer it became, the more painful Mei became.
Being a precocious woman, she understood one thing better than ordinary people:
Taking revenge on the Fire Moth as an ordinary person is undoubtedly like trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm, which is beyond one's ability.
Even more, let alone revenge for her father, it is a question whether she can escape the other party's pursuit in the future.
Suddenly, seeing the other party's calm demeanor, Mei finally realized -
His only hope of a comeback lies in this mysterious man.
Hugging Ming Yue, her tone was filled with pleading:
"You can definitely help me, right?"
"As long as I can get my revenge, I'm willing to do anything!"
After saying this, she seemed to have made up her mind and tore her clothes to shreds.
Seeing this, Sakura looked at him with pity, and then stood at the stairs to prevent others from approaching.
Having personally experienced the dark days when Ling was held hostage, she knew very well:
For that girl, her father is her only family.
If it were her, Ying would definitely go completely crazy if Ling was suddenly killed.
After a long while, when Mei, who was riding on him, had finished venting her emotions, Mingyue said calmly:
"I will help you, but not out of pity for your impotent rage."
"Mei, if you don't want to be a puppet, you'd better find your own value like them."
