Fooling Tomoko into being a system

The six-story building was short, but the journey in his heart was long. Thomas Wade seemed to have spent his whole life climbing six flights of stairs.

When he stood in front of the door, he raised his hand and tried to knock on the door with his knuckles. He lowered his head to make sure that his appearance was not impolite. Thomas Wade was not a person who cared about etiquette, but Luo Ji deserved his respect because Luo Ji did what he could not do. thing.

dong dong——

There was a knock on the door, and Thomas Wade's heart beat faster...

This is an era full of hope, and he is about to meet the man who created this era.

Thomas Wade stood in front of the door and waited for a minute. He didn't hear the sound of footsteps. He looked down at the time and found that it was 1:7. Are you early?

He could only keep knocking on the door, this time harder, and waited for another minute.

He didn't know whether to keep banging on the door or wait at the door.

pat~pat~

Slippers made a sound as they moved on the floor.

crunch--

When the door was pushed open, Thomas Wade did not see Luo Ji immediately, which made him feel a sense of loss.

Li Lin yawned and rubbed his eyes, looking at the foreigner in a decent suit outside the door. He was young and handsome, with an expressionless face carved by the classical lines on his face. He was like a statue walking out of an oil painting. The only The disadvantage is that his eyes are slightly gloomy.

"Who are you?" Li Lin realized something after speaking out, "Are you Thomas Wade?"

Thomas Wade looked at the young man in front of him, he looked familiar, where had he seen him before?

He nodded subconsciously and saw the young man's hand reaching for his shoulder without any evasion, letting him pull him into the house.

"You're finally here. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Come in quickly. I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Li Lin."

Thomas Wade knew Li Lin was a hibernator through his temperament.

Li Lin pulled Thomas Vader into the room and asked him to sit down on the sofa. He took away the beer bottles on the coffee table, took out a bottle of 82 Lafite and a wine glass from the corner and placed them in front of Thomas Vader.

"You sit down first. Luo Ji drank too much last night. I'll wake him up!"

Then Li Lin opened the door of another room, and Thomas Wade heard the sound of waking up. The two had a good relationship, but Li Lin's information was basically not written on the information.

Thomas Wade looked at the living room environment. If there was anything special about the ordinary room, the only thing that was special was the fish tank next to the balcony. The clown fish in it was a fake fish. The decoration at the bottom of the fish tank made him find everything new and fresh.

There were ashtrays on the coffee table, beer bottles under the coffee table, the smell of smoke, barbecue and smell of smelly clothes in the turbid air.

It seems that the life of the savior Luo Ji is not very good.

"Luo Ji! Wake up! Thomas Vader is here!"

Luo Ji's confused voice then sounded: "Thomas Wade is here?"

Luo Ji rushed out of the bedroom with a chicken coop on his head. There was a yellowish-brown sticky substance in the corners of his eyes and he smelled of alcohol. This was the Luo Ji in Thomas Wade's eyes, which was very different from the savior in his impression.

Thomas Wade was about to stand up and shake hands with Luo Ji.

"Sit down first and give me 3 minutes!"

After Luo Ji finished speaking, he walked to the bathroom and washed himself with cold water. He and Li Lin waited for Thomas Wade for half a month and finally arrived.

When Luo Ji came out of the bathroom, he saw Li Lin and Thomas Wade already sitting at the coffee table, pouring red wine, and sat down opposite Thomas Wade.

Luo Ji got straight to the point: "PIA Director Thomas Wade, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Sword holder Luo Ji, what do you want from me?"

Thomas Wade was very confused. Is there anything else that Luo Ji couldn't do?

"My biggest wish in this life is to give my wife and children a complete home. I have proposed to hand over the signal switch several times but were rejected by the coalition government."

Thomas Wade realized what Luo Ji was trying to do.

"why me?"

"This is about talking about a concept called deterrence. In my eyes, the deterrence degree is above 90 and below 100 in Trisolaris.

Then your deterrence level in the eyes of Trisolaris is 100. Your identity as a former CIA agent and later PIA director is enough to prove that you are more suitable as a sword holder than me. "

Thomas Vader's heartbeat was beating crazily, this was simply a sudden burst of joy!

But Thomas Wade is worthy of being the director of PIA. The words calm and rational are born for him, and he can grasp the key points immediately.

"The coalition government and the public will not agree. You can only be the sword bearer!"

Thomas Wade, who had conducted preliminary investigations, knew how important the identity of the sword holder was to human civilization and the Trisolaran world. Even if Luo Ji voluntarily gave up this identity, the coalition government and the public would never allow it.

I'm afraid Luo Ji won't be able to give his lover and child a complete home.

Luo Ji becoming the sword bearer is beneficial to the entire human civilization. The Trisolaran people are afraid of Luo Ji and will buy the entire human civilization more time to develop science and technology until human civilization catches up with the Trisolaran world.

Thomas Vader will not take over the sword bearer identity at this time, his goal is to be the next sword bearer.

"Unless you are too old to fulfill your mission as a sword bearer, no one will want to replace you!"

This is the truest thought in Thomas Wade's heart.

Hearing Thomas Wade's words, Luo Ji glanced at Li Lin, and Thomas Wade noticed this look.

"Do you still remember my wish?"

Thomas Wade quipped, "A home for your lover's child?"

“Ever since I successfully used my own life and snow engineering to deter the Trisolaran civilization, I feel empty and confused.

After being reminded by Li Lin, I clearly realized that my responsibility to mankind has been exhausted. I owe nothing to mankind. I have no so-called love or hate for mankind. The only things in my heart that I cannot let go of are Zhuang Yan and the child! "

Thomas Wade looked at Luo Ji in confusion. He didn't expect that Luo Ji didn't love humans. This was simply ridiculous. There was nothing more ridiculous than the savior not loving humans.

Thomas Wade turned to look at Li Lin, who was sitting next to Luo Ji, "What did you say to the sword holder Luo Ji?"

"Li Lin may be the only friend in this world who cares about whether my family is complete and happy. For example, you don't care about whether my children will have a complete family."

Thomas Wade didn't deny that Luo Ji had seen through it.

"I'll tell you an extra piece of news. It was Li Lin who recommended you to succeed me as the sword bearer."

Thomas Wade held up his wine glass to hide his surprise. He didn't expect that Li Lin would recommend him to become a sword bearer, but he would not be grateful to Li Lin.

Luo Ji patted his head and continued: "I almost forgot to mention that Li Lin's intimidation level in the eyes of the Trisolarans is also 100. My previous state was very bad, my nerves were tense, I was dizzy or exhausted. I gave Li Lin the control of the cradle system for 24 hours, and there was no abnormal movement from the Trisolarans!"

Thomas Wade stared at Li Lin and didn't notice the red wine spilling on the ground.

He didn't care about Luo Ji's operations, but realized that Li Lin was someone who could intimidate the Trisolaran civilization and had sufficient utilization value.
