escape the moon

Two people ordered a dozen beers.The boss brought over a round wooden barrel with a faucet, and Shen Yizhen was secretly shocked. If it was real wood, this barrel of wine might be more expensive than the whole meal.

Xiaoshan clinked glasses with him: "I like the one with a strong malt flavor, try it. You can drink it as you like, and I'll finish it."

The aroma of the frozen malt is sober and sweet, with a slightly bitter aftertaste, which just relieves the sweetness of the pumpkin rice.The spicy pig's trotters are grilled so that the skin is crispy and the meat is crispy. The jelly melts like a mouthful of jelly, and it melts as soon as it touches the tongue.

"This meal is not cheap, is it?" Shen Yizhen felt guilty eating.

Xiao Shan picked up a chopstick of meat and put it in his bowl: "You won't be asked to pay the bill, what are you worried about?"

His own bowl was already empty, and the soldiers ate fast, as if rushing to reincarnate.

Shen Yizhen was a little embarrassed, remembering the original intention of this meal: "I haven't asked yet, how did you transfer to the consulting department? Is it temporary or long-term? Why is there no news at all? Did you change the host of the meeting on Monday? "

"Talking too much," Xiaoshan took a sip of his wine: "I was notified to be transferred today. Feng Jiling personally gave the order. Originally, he was the old man who presided over the meeting. I just came back, so let me take over."

With a pig's trotter in her mouth, Shen Yizhen spoke vaguely: "The consulting department...what does it do?"

Xiaoshan sneered: "An intelligence officer, pretending to be a ghost, is afraid that people will think it is not mysterious enough."

"The effect is still very good. I have stayed in the secretary's office for so many years, and I only know that there is such a department."

"Let you all know, what kind of intelligence does it have?"

"Then what can you do in the counseling department?"

Xiaoshan glanced at him, but didn't answer right away.Shen Yizhen thought it was a secret and couldn't tell, so she turned her attention back to the trotters.He suddenly realized that the relationship between Xiaoshan and him was not close enough to talk about everything, not to mention that Xiaoshan is now a senior official of the command post, it is inappropriate for an ordinary secretary to ask him casually.

When it came to the Consulting Department, most of the command post staff reacted in a daze, as if they had heard the name somewhere, but they couldn't tell exactly what was going on.Shen Yizhen has been in the secretary's office for five years. He has to go up and down the entire command post building several times a day. Going to the United Front Work Department on the 47th floor is as natural as going home. Only in this consulting department, all file transfers are limited to copying internal mailboxes , never delivered printed copies, and worked in the same building, he had no memory of where this department was at all.

Shen Yizhen is not a fool either.Xiaoshan is the pillar of the coalition army. His identity is not just that of a general leading the troops. From a spiritual perspective, he is a benchmark image in the coalition army, and now he is a war hero in the hearts of the people.With him on the front line, many people will feel at ease.Therefore, Feng Jiling would never withdraw him from the front line easily. Once he made this decision, it meant that the situation required him to do so.The situation has changed, and the national strategy has to change accordingly, so Xiaoshan has to come to the consulting department.

Wars will not be fought all the time, they will always be fought on and off, and on and off.The thirteen districts were recovered, and the territory of the Yugoslavia was restored. This is the stage of "stopping".Now that there is no war, there must be something else to do.Feng Jiling personally issued an order to transfer the most important subordinates back to the rear, indicating that the next move is inseparable from the consulting department.What would be the important tasks that would require an intelligence service to undertake?Even if Xiaoshan didn't say anything, Shen Yizhen could still guess.

He put down his chopsticks to wipe his mouth, held a cold beer glass in one hand, and said only: "The presiding draft was originally written from the perspective of the commander-in-chief. If you come to read it, some rhetoric still needs to be revised. I will go back tonight." I will send you a new draft. You can see if it fits, and if there are any places that need to be revised, mark it out and give it to me.”

Xiao Shan ticked his fingers at him, motioning him to approach: "I can only tell you now that this matter has something to do with Alice."

Now Shen Yizhen really didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

"It's the kid you watched for the front desk."

"I know, she's just a child."

"It is because she is a child that she can catch people's hearts. She is very important now, and her superiors understand her topicality very well. A little girl born in a working family lost her parents in the war, and her mother swore to protect her life. How wonderful It’s a pity to pull her in front of the camera to sell her, and you see, the number of recruits immediately increased.”

"She's only ten years old! She just lost her parents. The most important thing to do is to protect her, not expose her to others."

"It's already been exposed. Newspapers, radio, television, the Internet, virtual space...it's too late. She's going to speak at the United Front Conference on Monday, and the manuscript is ready. Do you think it's possible to escape?"

Shen Yizhen's prediction two hours ago was successfully verified.He just had this idea unintentionally at the time, because if he were Feng Jiling, such a good opportunity would never be missed, and he would push this child forward.

Xiaoshan said: "There will be roving TV interviews, special reports, and theme songs... She will tell the people over and over again how the house collapsed that day, how her mother hugged her, and the mother's body that was gradually cooling... Repeatedly. Tell me that she memorizes every word by heart, and all the details are vivid. If it is not her, it will be someone else, another little boy, maybe a little hunchback, with freckles on his face, the same story, the same origin, the same national Pay the bill and take it all."

Shen Yizhen sighed, staring blankly at the dreamy golden wine.

He suddenly thought of those blue eyes.

I don't know whether I should tell Xiaoshan about this matter, Shen Yizhen hesitated in his heart.Feng Jiling must have known that since this child was able to be brought to the United Front Work Department, he had searched countless times up and down, so it was impossible to hide the matter about the pupils.Now I'm not sure, Feng Jiling's idea to match this pair of pupils, or the child's parents secretly matched them to protect her.

What is certain is that as long as Feng Jiling knows, Xiaoshan will know too.What is Xiaoshan's attitude?Why did Xiaoshan's transfer to the consulting department have something to do with Alice?What could a little girl have to do with intelligence?

Shen Yizhen decided to be more cautious and check the situation first.

"I just wanted to talk to you about this," Xiaoshan said bluntly, "Feng Jiling assigned me to take full charge of the children's daily schedule. I have the power to arrange the people in this team. I want you to come in and take care of the daily life of me and the children. schedule."

Shen Yizhen stared: "Me?"

"In the afternoon, I see that the child has a good relationship with you. She will be happy with you."

"No, I don't want to participate."

"why?"

"I have never brought up a child, and you also said that she is a golden branch and jade leaf now, and I can't bear it if something goes wrong."

"If something goes wrong, I will take care of it."

Shen Yizhen still wanted to refuse.His intuition told him that this was not a good thing, and that there might be big trouble.Originally, being a secretary was a thankless job - following under the noses of high-level officials, one should do well, and one could easily be magnified if one did not do well. In case of a bad mood, it would be a matter of minutes to put on a big hat.What's more, Alice is now the "national daughter", and Feng Jiling personally ordered her to take care of her. The more important the high-level affairs are, the harder it is to take care of them. Shen Yizhen feels a headache when she thinks about it.

Xiaoshan didn't hide it from him: "To be honest, it's not impossible for me to go to the secretary's office and pick someone more experienced, but first of all, I don't have any connections in the command post. The person I like is not the person in charge of his department." I will definitely be willing to let it be used by me. I can bring Feng Jiling out to put pressure on him, but when I first entered the command post, I used this set of foxes and tigers. How can I cooperate with various departments in the future?

Secondly, since it is unchangeable to push people out, I still hope that someone can treat her better with sincerity.I myself have no parents since I was a child, and I went to the battlefield after only a few years of schooling. I am afraid that the future of this child will be difficult.All I can do is make sure she isn't alone when she goes. "

He was speaking the truth.He signed up to join the army at the age of 15, and there was only one reason - the army had food to eat and no one would die from starvation. He started as an orderly soldier and suffered all kinds of hardships. Finally, he survived until the armistice. He was transferred to the rear and gave him a job as a nanny. To put it bluntly, he is a senior orderly, so he has to continue, and he can't be unhappy.

Shen Yizhen was a little soft-hearted.

"Yizhen, I need you." Xiaoshan looked into his eyes.

Shen Yizhen's face was slightly hot, he subconsciously raised the wine glass to cover his face, and hurriedly swallowed the frozen wine.

"You know so many people, and you don't need me alone."

"I don't know many secretaries."

"...Let me think about it. Even if I agree, I still have to report to the director..."

"Answer me on Monday."

Shen Yizhen nodded.His mind was very chaotic, it was Xiaoshan's words for a while, and Alice's eyes for a while.

"You may know some things about that child, but I still want to say it." Shen Yizhen said hesitantly.

"What did she tell you?" Xiaoshan asked.

Shen Yizhen shook her head: "I accidentally saw her pupils fall off. Her eyes are blue."

Xiaoshan frowned slightly, but did not answer immediately.Shen Yizhen took a deep breath and concluded: "She was not born on the moon."

Lunar species, in other words, individuals born on the moon and conceived by two moon-born humans have gray eyes.After the verification of time, this conclusion is generally accepted by the biological community.As for the reason, there is still no conclusion. Some people say that radiation caused the genetic variation, some people say that it is the impact of food and water quality, and the latest research says that the change of gravity is also an influencing factor.

According to biological history records, most of the descendants of the first generation of earthlings who moved to the moon still have non-grey eyes.But when two people born on the same moon start to reproduce, the children's eyes all turn gray.So, generation after generation, no one has ever seen eyes other than gray.

Xiaoshan understands Shen Yizhen's subtext.Before humans moved to the moon, they only stayed on the earth. If Alice was not born on the moon, then there would be only the earth.Those pair of bright blue eyes, which seem to reflect the birthplace of human beings.After 600 years, human beings finally regained the memory of origin and hometown from the eyes of an eight-year-old girl.

"Aside from you, who else knows about this?" Xiaoshan asked.

Shen Yizhen replied: "I don't know if the front desk knows, I saw it myself, and I haven't told anyone else."

Xiaoshan teased: "Then you are so relieved to tell me?"

"Anyway, as I said, I can't help you whatever you want."

"Since I knew it unintentionally, don't talk about it with anyone except me. It's for your own good. It doesn't matter whether you join this team or not. This is the principle. I haven't found out what happened to Alice. The people above I'm also worried that if the truth leaks out, it will shake people's hearts, after all, I haven't seen the earth species for more than 600 years."

"Didn't it mean that there are no human beings on the earth? If she can be born, at least it proves that her biological parents were both on the earth at the time. I don't know if these parents are both moon species. Aren't they gray eyes?"

"It is possible that the two earth species have only half the probability of having gray eyes when they are born on the moon; conversely, if two moon species go to the earth, it is also possible that the eyes will not be gray. In addition, how did they go back? Going back from the moon requires at least There is a spaceship, a person who can fly a spaceship, how did they get the spaceship? How did they drive it back? They have to investigate.”

Shen Yizhen realized why this issue was so valued by high-level officials.A person who can get a spaceship, a person who can drive a spaceship and know how to get a spaceship, can never be an ordinary person.In a special period, even small aircraft cannot be privatized. Those who can fly a spaceship and have channels to obtain a spaceship are likely to be people in the state affairs building, command post, or active-duty army, and they are likely not grassroots personnel, at least middle and high-level personnel.

The most important parts of the country have defected from the middle and high levels, not only escaping the border, but even escaping the moon.This is definitely not allowed. If the people know about it, it will definitely shake people's hearts and cause an uproar.

At this point, Shen Yizhen couldn't believe it.

Why has no one reported such important matters as the disappearance of middle and high-level officials and the loss of a spaceship by the country?Even if the news will not leak down, at least there should be a response from the top management.After Alice was born, sent back to the moon for adoption, and grew up safely until she was almost ten years old, she was accidentally discovered because of the war. Is it true that the country was completely ignorant for such a long time?Even if other people are negligent, what are the people in the consulting department doing?Can you know that the musicians have fallen into the enemy camp but don't know that the middle and high level defected?

"The reason why the commander transferred you to the Consulting Department is actually to investigate this matter, right?" Shen Yizhen hit the nail on the head: "Alice is just a cover, she is a way to attract the attention of the people in front of the people. The fact that someone in the country escaped from the moon This matter is much more important than Alice. Finding out who, why, and how to escape is the real way to maintain national security."

Xiaoshan showed a look of praise: "Not bad, he is a smart person."

Shen Yizhen was dissatisfied: "Otherwise, do you think the secretary's office is so easy to stay in?"

Xiaoshan said: "I'm serious, Yizhen, I need someone to help me. I don't know many people in the rear, and I trust even less. If this was on the front line, I wouldn't drag you, no matter how you say it. It must be a dangerous thing. Don't worry, I will bear the responsibility. I can't say anything about others, but you, I will definitely keep it. You just need to concentrate on doing what you are supposed to do."

He has shown the utmost sincerity, otherwise he would not have specially pulled people out for dinner, and exchanged information from the bottom of his heart.

Shen Yizhen also understood: "I will think about it carefully."
