"Genetic mutation," Bai Li said decisively, "If it wasn't for the genetic mutation, how could the Lin family have such a... real person!"

Lu Zhao sat on the chair opposite him, pressed his finger on the knee of Bai Li's left leg with a little force, and didn't bother to talk to Bai Li.

"Otherwise, I bumped into my head in the garrison regiment," Bai Li said, "Did you see that the marshal wanted to cover my mouth at first, but when he walked halfway, he was about to turn back and cover Lin Xu's mouth, but in the end he could only stand aside and cover my mouth own mouth."

There were only two people, Lu Zhao and Baili, in the treatment room of the military hospital, and they didn't have much scruples when they spoke.

Bai Li put his left leg on Lu Zhao's leg, so that he could massage his calf.

"You are very optimistic about him." Lu Zhao pressed down from his knee.

"It's hard to say whether it's good or not," Bai Li said, "The main thing is that after the horizontal comparison, the first heir told everyone with his strength that he really tried his best to set off the second child. It's really a touching brotherhood."

This mouth really has no virtue at all, Lu Zhao laughed for a long time.

"I don't have any feelings for Lin Xu, at most I don't hate it." Bai Li leaned back, slumped on the back of the sofa and sighed, "I have a serious face, and I didn't expect to be a dreamer. Just listen to the beautiful words on your lips."

Lu Zhao didn't quite understand.

Bai Li said: "Let's put it this way, why do you think I can live so well?" Before Lu Zhao could think about it, Bai Li gave the answer, "Because of my identity."

"I have to admit that I can receive a higher education, have an excellent living environment, have a wide network of contacts, and spend the rest of my life without worrying about food and drink, all thanks to my being an aristocrat, and I happen to be quite rich. My status allows me to be in the empire There are certain privileges." Bai Li lazily said, "That's why I said that I have the ability and opportunity to make the choice of white01 more than many people. From the very beginning, my starting line is higher than quite a few people."

Lu Zhao tacitly agreed that he was born as a commoner, and his childhood was not prosperous, and so were most of the people around him.

He's a superstar, and it seems that as long as he works hard, he will have a future, but most of the people he knew when he was young lived in that gray subsidiary star from beginning to end.

"My background is doomed to the circle I hang out in. The more connections I have, the more connections I have, the richer I have, the richer I am." Bai Li smiled, "So we hold together to occupy the upper level, and this is how dark clouds and quagmire are formed. Yes. The Second Young Master wants an empire that belongs to everyone, so he can only pull the starting line to a position where everyone can stand."

Bai Li sighed: "It's difficult. Even if there were no nobles, there would be rich and poor, strong and weak, and even the nobles would be divided into old and upstarts. There would be ranks in people's existence. People with high ranks They will naturally form groups, become a new class, and the starting line will be raised."

Lu Zhao was speechless, and the movement of massaging his hands stagnated slightly.

"But these are all my one-sided thoughts," Bai Li laughed while slumped on the sofa, "it's 'washroom thinking'."

"What do you mean?" Lu Zhao asked.

"It's just the thoughts that pop up occasionally when I'm sitting on the toilet or taking a shower," Bai Li said, "It seems that I am a cultural person who thinks deeply."

Lu Zhao looked at him speechlessly.

"Why?" Bai Li raised his neck, "Didn't you find that people are most likely to think about things when they sit on the toilet or take a bath without a personal terminal?"

Lu Zhao said after a while: "Indeed."

"Look," Bai Li said, "Think about the bathroom."

He didn't quite understand how Bai Li could connect two unrelated things together, but Lu Zhao was still amused and couldn't help laughing.

Enough laughing, Lu Zhao still asked: "How to solve these?"

The "these" he said are very vague, and there are huge things under the simple words.

"I don't know, I'm just like this," Bai Li pinched the tip of his little finger with his thumb and compared it to the size of an ant. , I should not be unhappy."

Lu Zhao smiled.

"It's very idealistic, I think. The reality is deeper and more ruthless. People who walk in reality have to grope forward, and they may fall into the ditch if they make a mistake," Bai Li shook his leg. Zhao held him down and continued to rub, "I can't play this, you are not as good as me, we two just make do with it."

"Yeah." Lu Zhao said, "Be ready."

Bai Li said with a smile, "My thinking in the bathroom tells me that the most basic thing a person like me can do is: When standing in this position, be careful not to step on the people below."

In the empire, a place completely different from Bai Li's previous life, he often felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

But there is one thing that Bai Li knows very well, that is, no matter where you are or where you stand, you can never go wrong in being a good person.

"After all, I'm living a good life. It may be said that these principles have the meaning of 'why not eat minced meat', but I can't think of anything else." Bai Li said, "But to be honest, when I rejected Lin Xu, I still didn't like it. I'm a little afraid that he won't like it and will run on me in the future."

"How to run?" Lu Zhao raised his head and asked.

"I can't tell, but I always feel anxious. I'm not sure if the original trajectory has completely collapsed. Anything can happen before it completely collapses." Bai Li sighed, "After all, the original trajectory My left leg would have to be completely broken to be finished."

In the original plot, the villain Bai Li exited after his legs were completely scrapped.

The follow-up news is also relayed from the perspective of Tang Kaiyuan in the original book. It has no connection with the main line, and it disappears as soon as it is written. The reason why Bai Li now knows that he will die in the hospital is also because Tang Kaiyuan comforted him. What Lu Zhaoshi said.

——"Don't worry, he won't be able to get out of the hospital bed by himself in this life, maybe he will spend the rest of his life in the hospital."

All of this happened after Bai Li completely lost his legs, thinking of this, he subconsciously frowned.

Lu Zhao didn't answer, but ran his fingers across the hideous scar on Bai Li's calf.

"It's really not possible." Bai Li was a little itchy, and shrank his legs with a smile, "I can only eat soft rice."

Lu Zhao didn't like to answer this topic, so he continued to massage in silence.

"To be honest, I have been a little worried since the system failure in the main arena last time," Bai Li joked, "If I can't continue the game, I haven't got a substitute, so let Major General Lu play for me."

Lu Zhao's hand paused, and he said "um".

It took two seconds for Bai Li to react: "Don't 'hmm', I'm talking nonsense, people from the main force cannot participate."

"Before... there were some contestants," Lu Zhao said in a low voice, "I checked and finally punished them."

"That was in the past, now who dares to try to hit the muzzle like this?" Bai Li said, "You can kick out the main force directly, and it is possible to leave the military."

Lu Zhao glanced at him and said nothing.

Bai Li realized that this person had really thought about these things, so he couldn't help but sit up straight: "Did you hear what I said? Don't say it before, don't affect yourself because of anything."

Lu Zhao wanted to say something, but his lips moved.

"I don't need to say that too much, I strangled you to death." Bai Li said, seeing that Lu Zhao didn't reply, he was a little anxious, and he pulled out his legs before he finished pressing them, frowning and calling Lu Zhao. Pushing his hand away, "I'm talking to you, Lu Zhao."

After a while, Lu Zhao said sullenly: "I know."

Bai Li's leg was pulled back by him, his feet pressed against Lu Zhao's abdomen, wrapped in warm body temperature, his heart was soft and itchy, and his toes grabbed Lu Zhao's arms.

Lu Zhao didn't respond, Bai Li grabbed him again, and then Major General Lu was willing to look up at him.

"I think, I'm your partner, lover, and family member," Bai Li said, "and also your good brother, right?"

Every time this title is mentioned, I feel a little happy, but Lu Zhao just nodded with a sullen face and no smile.

"A good brother should kick you and let you go forward when you are hesitant to go on the road." Bai Li looked at him and smiled, "It's not a fork in the road that will make you detour, right."

Their relationship was based on mutual admiration at the beginning. Bai Li liked Lu Zhao's appearance of fluttering his wings and never thought of breaking his wings.

"We all have our own way to go," Bai Li gently rubbed Lu Zhao's stomach with his foot, "It's also very happy to watch each other go, you just need to wait for me at the finish line, you can't run for me. "

The belly was gently touched, and the frustration that had just built up in Lu Zhao's heart collapsed at the touch of a touch.

He brushed the scar on Bai Li's leg with his fingers, and thought to himself, this leg is still running a fart.

But when he spoke, there was only one "um".

The effect of the soaking repair solution is very good. When I went to Lao Zheng for a reexamination, the other party was rarely nagging. After prescribing some medicines to take, he sent Bai Li back to rest.

"You still have to pay attention to the time and frequency of using your legs," said Old Zheng, "immediately after the game, you will take a holiday and come to me for a review. I don't need to ask you any more, right?"

Bai Li agreed, and was about to take the medicine and leave when Old Zheng remembered another problem.

"By the way, many people know about your coming to the military hospital?" Old Zheng asked.

"Except for me and Lu Zhao, everyone in the institute probably knows about it," Bai Li thought for a while, "Is there something wrong?"

Old Zheng's expression was complicated: "You haven't been on the Starnet much these two days? Some people on the Internet said that you have been receiving treatment in a military hospital during the competition and relying on drugs to maintain your health. The performance of white01 is actually very poor, not as strong as your research institute. .”

"Nonsense," Bai Li frowned, "I don't deny that white01 is still a semi-finished product, but if there is no data fluctuation caused by that accident, my legs will not be a problem to finish the game."

"I know it, but others don't know it. If someone plays the rhythm, someone will definitely praise it." Lao Zheng said helplessly, "I think this is not quite right, so let me tell you."

It's not quite right, Bai Li's leg injury is probably not known to anyone in the empire.

At the end of last year, there was a lot of commotion, and the degree of his physical damage was almost picked up. Everyone knew whether he could use the machine armor. The appearance of white01 could allow people like Bai Li to return to the cockpit. It is enough to prove the success of the research and development.

So this wave of rhythm is inexplicable, and many people feel that this statement is a malicious provocation, adding to the obstruction of Bai's research institute.

But you can't expect everyone to be on Baili's side, as long as the rhythm is fast enough, it can stir up some people who are not clear-headed or who are already sour to start booing.

"Is it really not good? The Bai's Research Institute will give you an explanation. Are you guilty of not showing up?"

Immediately someone replied: "I don't understand, you don't know the severity of Bai Li's leg injury? He can now use armor, and white01's record is a certainty. What else do you want to say? I'm too lazy to talk to you guys. Helping a fool is a guilty conscience?"

Supporters and doubters quarreled fiercely, and the quarrel became one of the more concerned topics before the finals.

People's focus is easily taken away. If there is too much noise here, no one will pay attention to the topics that were still discussed before.The news about what happened in the backstage of the sub-competition area just discussed was put aside, and they turned to argue about who was right and who was wrong.

"It's very abrupt." Lu Zhao took the suspension car and turned a corner, "Now let's talk about this."

The artificial voice on the car was thinking about the forum messages one after another, and Bai Li raised his hand to close it halfway: "Smart people can see it."

Lu Zhao glanced at him.

"Praise you are very smart." Bai Li smiled and bumped him with his elbow.

The corner of Lu Zhao's mouth curled up: "Leave it alone?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't care about it." Bai Li took out his personal terminal and swiped across the contact list. "The best way to shut up the trash is actually very simple, just win."

Lu Zhao agreed, but felt uncomfortable.

No one would feel comfortable with flies buzzing close to him. Bai Li was already under a lot of pressure, and this kind of buzzing would only distract him.

"But I'm in a good mood recently," Bai Li said, "When I'm in a good mood, I don't see anyone jumping in front of me."

Before Lu Zhao could react, Bai Li sent a call to the police station.

As soon as the police chief's face bounced onto the virtual screen, Bai Li said, "Call the police."

Regarding whether Baili's entry and exit from the military hospital means that there is a problem with the white01 model, the remarks are still being fermented on a large scale, and they have been poured a basin of cold water.

Bai Li directly contacted the police department with the two reasons of "investigating the daily schedule is harassment" and "fabricating rumors is slander", and the police department intervened in the investigation.

This basin of cold water poured on the spectators to curse bad luck, but woke up the supporters.

That's right, when will Ren Baili go to the military hospital to take care of your shit?How did you know that he was gone?Isn't this a private investigation?

Besides, Bai Li's leg injury happened many years ago, regular physical examination is not too much, right?How do you grab a thread and pull it on white01?

Soon someone noticed something wrong from this incident. The fact that the small leader of the Imperial Research Institute was sacked some time ago spread rumors that the contest focused on destructive mechs has not been forgotten. That wave of interference before the match directly made The Xu Xiao Research Institute gave up the competition.

Now that this is happening before the finals, who would believe it if it wasn't pre-match interference?

Since the end of last year, the citizens of the empire have been so shocked that their nerves are tense. Everyone seems to be on the radar, and they feel that there is something inside when they see any news.

This rumor that caused heated discussions before the finals, combined with the fact that Bai Li had been unlucky from the beginning of the game, the idea of ​​"who the hell is running on Major General Bai" once again occupied the high ground in the hearts of supporters.

The goal of the supporters is very clear, whoever can benefit from the run on the white calendar will be suspected.

There were not many suspects, except for Bai Li himself, there were only fifteen left.

The trials for the sub-divisions finally came to an end. A total of 16 people from the main star area and the sub-divisions qualified for the finals and gathered in the main arena.

Under the vigorous discussion and the shady radar sweep of the citizens of the empire, the finals of the mecha competition finally kicked off.

The spectator seats in the main arena are all open for use, and spectator admission channels have been added to accommodate mecha lovers from affiliated stars who come to watch the game.

This year's solicitation competition gathered talents. Sixteen pilots conquered the major legions and military academies with their superb driving skills, and set off a frenzy of mechs in the empire that had been quiet for many years.

On the day of the competition, there was already a commotion outside the main arena. Under the holographic projection, sixteen mechas appeared in turn, sometimes swooping down to the auditorium, causing bursts of cheers.

Audiences from different sub-stars also arrived at the main star today to cheer for their favorite models and drivers.

Lu Zhao, Jiang Hao and others have already entered the arena ahead of time. The open main stage is wider than before, and a huge virtual screen is broadcasting the situation outside the arena.

"When will Bai Li and the others arrive?" Jiang Hao divided the drinks he brought and asked Lu Zhao, "The drivers will be there the first day, right?"

Lu Zhao took the drink: "I don't know the details, he and Situ set off from the research institute together, and should be on the way..."

Before the words were finished, there was a burst of discussion in the audience, and Lu Zhao and others looked up.

On the virtual screen, a suspension vehicle is coming from outside the main arena. The white body is painted with a dazzling dark blue, and the logo of Bai's Research Institute is branded on it.

"Come on! Major General Bai!" Someone shouted.

As soon as the hover car came to a complete stop, reporters from the major mecha publications who were squatting outside the venue surrounded them, consciously keeping a polite distance, but as soon as Bai Li walked out of the car door, he was still caught by such eager gazes. Very uncomfortable.

"Hey, what, do you want to retouch the pictures after taking the pictures?" Young Master Bai was wearing a competition suit, holding his special helmet in his hand, and said to the reporters around him, "Be more handsome, but don't cover up my original temperament .”

The reporters laughed, and someone said, "This is a live broadcast."

There was also laughter from the auditorium in the main arena.

"See," Jiang Hao said with a smile, "This grandson didn't make a sound, but his lips moved so fast, he must be swearing."

After all the people from Bai's Research Institute got off the suspension vehicle, another reporter asked, "Mr. Bai Li, are you confident that you can achieve ideal results in the competition?"

"It's hard to say," Bai Li adjusted his posture, Situ walked beside him, and the two led the team behind them to answer reporters' questions while walking.Without giving Situ a chance to cover his mouth, Bai Li said, "I thought the competition team had already engraved my name on the medal."

Even through the virtual screen, even though his tone seemed very flat, Young Master Bai was still arrogant.

Situ, who was too late to catch up, was frowning.

Jiang Hao and Chen Nan and Han Miao were already laughing. Lu Zhao's eyes paused for a moment on Bai Li's face, and he saw a little smugness in those eyes.

Major General Lu couldn't help laughing out loud.

Some people disdain and some despise, some people pursue and some follow suit.No matter what kind of people around him, Young Master Bai is always the center of the spotlight wherever he goes.

After the arrogant speech, Boss Bai was collectively silenced by the research institute, and a specially appointed assistant answered some routine questions from the reporters.

"Here comes another person," said a reporter, "Shengshi Research Institute."

Bai Li looked back, and not far away, a black and red suspension car had just stopped, the door opened, and a person in racing uniform stepped down first, with a coat draped over his shoulders.

The eyes of the two met in mid-air, and they felt each other's vigilance and hostility almost at the same time.

Once the aura between the alphas collides, it will bring a certain feeling to the people around them. This feeling is so subtle that it is difficult to explain it clearly. The reporters invariably pointed the shooting robot at the two of them.

The researchers of the Shengshi Research Institute got out of the car one after another. The black and red uniform made the leader look chic and handsome. He looked at Bai Li with his coat on. The two looked at each other silently for a few seconds before showing a gentle smile and reaching out Come over: "Mr. Bai Li."

Bai Li smiled with a smile on his face and changed his arm to hold the helmet: "Young Master Tang, why are you always so out of time."

The Shengshi Research Institute was caught in a storm of public opinion some time ago. The news that Lin Sheng was investigated by the police department spread like wildfire, and he has not shown up until now.Driver Tang Kaiyuan led the team to compete today.

The relationship between Tang and Bai needs no introduction. The two brothers with different surnames almost never appear in the outside world at the same time. This may be the first time that they appear on the same screen in this way.

"I'll go, the enemy's road is narrow," Jiang Hao cursed in a low voice, and when he turned his head and saw Lu Zhao's expression, he was stunned, "What's the matter? Don't worry, Bai Li has a sense of proportion, so he can't fight..."

Lu Zhao couldn't hear Jiang Hao's voice clearly, and his body stiffened the moment Tang Kaiyuan stretched out his hand.

He remembered clearly the last time Bai Li and Tang Kaiyuan shook hands, and he was extremely nervous at the moment.

"Let's shake hands." Unlike Bai Li, Tang Kaiyuan smiled politely, "Respect your opponent, right?"

Bai Li looked at him, Tang Yuanyuan didn't have half of the gloom in the military hospital at the moment, his face was ruddy, he was full of energy, his pheromones were well maintained, and he could only smell a faint smell of alcohol.

I don't know if it's really under control, or if I restarted the machine again.

The former is fine, if the latter...

"That's right," Bai Li nodded coldly, but didn't reach out for the first time, but turned to the assistant and said, "Take out 'that'."

Before the people around could react, the assistant took out a sealed bag and tore it open, and took out a pair of gloves from it.

Bai Li put on his gloves slowly, stretched out his hand under Tang Kaiyuan's stiff expression, and shook it.

"I've been buying it for several days," Bai Li smiled at him, "thickened, plushed, and disposable."

No one spoke.

Tang Kaiyuan said after a while: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Bai is still obsessed with cleanliness."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Li sneezed pretendingly, took off his gloves and wiped his mouth: "Ah? What did you say?"

The expression on Tang Kaiyuan's face was distorted for a moment, but he quickly returned to calm: "Mr. Bai, it seems that there is no basic respect between us."

"No, it's boring if you say that," Bai Li raised his chin, "It's just that we don't need to put on a show."

Tang Kaiyuan nodded: "That's right, then..."

"See you on the main stage." Bai Li continued.

The two didn't look at each other anymore, and each walked into the main arena.

In the main arena, the holographic projections of the white01 and LIN23 models were lit up at the same time, and the two mechas swooped down to the auditorium.Only then did the audience come back to their senses, and the discussion became louder again.

The feud between the Bai family and the Tang family was evident in the brief meeting just now, and it also made many good people look forward to whether Bai Li and Tang Kaiyuan would have a chance to fight.

Ten minutes later, as the last research institute entered, there was a sound of metal collisions in the sky above the main arena.

The final round will eliminate eight models on this day.

Amidst the cheers and applause, Lu Zhao felt his personal terminal vibrate and received a text message.

Jiang Hao and Han Miao also opened their respective personal terminals at the same time.

The text messages received by the three were all from the top of the First Army Corps. This is a message that all senior military officers who participated in an emergency meeting not long ago will receive.

--"confirmed."
