That day, the weather was unusually cold and there was a strong wind.
An iron sheet was lifted from the construction site on the street and slammed into the air with a loud bang.
The people who used to be bustling on the streets were nowhere to be seen. When people heard about a tragedy, they would curl up in their homes and sleep. Perhaps this was the best way to escape.
At the front line, a very unfortunate piece of news reached the Southern Kingdom: Kurshme City, Podovit City, and Jieke City in the region of Tispo fell one after another on the same day.
Kuimata had just stepped into the territory of the Clancy people in the north, but he was unexpectedly ambushed by the fierce army and kicked out of his house.
Behind the Dipaosi Region was the Midoksi Region, and further behind was the Casaro Region. Such a close distance put the federal government in danger.
If Kuima didn't take emergency measures, then there would be ten Marls. Even Tadson could not save the fate of the Federation.
Kuima was carrying a heavy burden. Compared to the former Prime Minister, he had made many more decisions for the people of the Federation.
He could let the people of today live happily in a world without war, far away from the nightmare of the Middle East war zone.
Who would have thought that the government soldiers who had paid the price of their lives on the front lines? Kuima hoped to bury these facts and let the people of the Federation be happy forever.
He even lied that the Middle East war zone was undergoing a large-scale development. However, who would believe history? However, they were all wearing masks and living on the streets with their pockets out.
On the one hand, he had to implement policies that were beneficial to the people of the Federation. On the other hand, he had to control the situation and wait for the right time to turn the situation around. However, this situation was easier said than done!
He couldn't sleep at night and was restless in the morning.
Every time there was a knock on the door, he would be shocked because it was not a good thing. It was either an assassination in chechen or the fall of a position on the front line.
He refused to knock on the door, hoping to calm down and think about some things.
"Dong dong dong!"
After a few seconds of silence, there was another knock on the door.
Kuima looked a little angry. He cleared his throat and slammed the cup on the table. "Come in!" he shouted at the door.
Joanna, who was standing outside the door, was a little surprised. She heard the noise inside and was very worried about Kuima's physical condition, so she immediately pushed open the door and rushed in.
Seeing Joanna rush in without saying a word, Kuima's anger instantly subsided. He pinched his throat and acted as if nothing had happened.
"You're up so early?"
"Prime Minister, this is your medicine. Yes." Joanna looked into his eyes, then put the cup of medicine on the table and pushed it in front of him.
Kuima's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he hadn't slept well for a long time. He dragged his fatigue and coughed a few times.
Joanna took a few steps back and then stopped.
"By the way, Prime Minister, the cabinet has another meeting at four in the morning. This time, Deputy Prime Minister Elrond is giving a speech.”
"What did they say?"
"About Dibos…"
Quimaby made a gesture to indicate that she did not have to continue. He understood the whole thing.
"Prime Minister, I don't have any information on my side. I'll leave first.”
"Is there something urgent, Joanna?”Kuima looked up at her. Recently, he realized that she always came and left early. Something must have happened.
Joanna laughed. She couldn't help it. Therefore, he told Kuima without hiding anything,""I'm in love."
It was very sudden.
"With who?" Kuima's expression was hard to read. He just nodded and picked up the pen in the pen holder, preparing to deal with the batch of information in front of him.
"I'll introduce you when we're familiar with each other." Joanna refused to admit that she had fallen in love with a young officer named Darwin.
Kuima nodded. He looked at the document in front of him and muttered,"As long as you're not from the north."
"It's not that." Joanna quickly shook her head and tried to correct the relationship.
" Child, then go ahead and pursue love…"
Kuima suddenly remembered that he had not drunk the medicine, so he picked up the cup and drank the medicine.
Joanna nodded and explained," He's one of us. He's in the Federation."”
Kuima put down the cup and picked up the pen again.
Joanna walked up and took the empty cup away.
"Then I'm relieved. You can go.”Kuima suddenly raised his head and said to her back.
Hearing this affirmation, Joanna looked back at Kuima happily. "Thank you, Uncle!" She was so excited that she did not know how to express her inner world.
"..." Kuima's smile became more and more stiff.
"Uh, Prime Minister." Joanna realized that she had said something wrong and immediately corrected herself with a smile.
She turned around and was about to leave when she froze at the door.
"What now?" Kuima looked at her.
Joanna turned around, looked at Kuima's face, and replied,""Don't send anyone to follow me. Let me talk to you first.”
Kuima nodded. He had just finished his medicine and felt better.
Joanna closed the door and went out.
Kuima turned his head and looked out of the window. After a long time, he said,"Young man."
After leaving Kuima's office, Joanna ran back to her room to change her clothes.
She stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself. She matched the clothes on her body one by one, but she could not find anything that satisfied her.
.
It was cold today, so Darwin wore a sweater inside and a military uniform outside to show his identity.
The few of them stood in the square of the Goziyi military base, stomping their feet in the cold.
In the distance, a middle-aged man wearing a hat was walking towards Darwin. He had a big round face, a red nose, and deep sunken eyes. It was hard not to see where his dignity lay.
He stood in front of Darwin with his mouth open, unable to speak for a long time.
"I'm very happy to see you, Yu He.”Darwin stepped forward and shook hands with him, a relaxed smile on his face.
"I, I…I'm also…a friend.”The middle-aged man named Yu He shook hands with Darwin. The military rank on his shoulder indicated that he was one rank higher than Darwin.
If Yu He didn't speak, he would always be treated as a subordinate. Because when Darwin spoke, he was either crossing his arms or putting his hands on his hips. He was even more arrogant than his superiors.
"What did the higher-ups say?" Darwin asked as he released his grip.
Yu He then handed the folder in his other hand to Darwin. He was not good at communicating and always used his actions to let others understand his meaning.
When Darwin flipped to the first page, there was only one page, and what greeted his eyes were the three striking words " Winter Treasury " written in Clancy's language.
"Winter Treasury?" Darwin looked up at Yu He.
Yu He nodded. He opened his mouth, but it sounded like he was out of breath. He had this stuttering problem since he was young, and it was difficult to change it now.
Darwin waited for him to finish, but it felt like it was intentional.
" Dong, Dong, Dong..." Yu He's face was red from holding it in. He raised his palm and spoke as if he was composing a song. It was quite rhythmic.
"Does the government plan to take down the Winter Treasury?”Darwin was skeptical. He shook his head and waited for Yu He's answer.
The more nervous Yu He was, the more he couldn't speak, so he nodded his head suddenly.
"The Winter Treasury is a district city of the Northern Monarchs. It's not big, but it's very close to the Middle East. This way…"
Before Darwin could finish analyzing the situation, Yu He could finally explain what he had just said.
" The higher-ups said that you, you continue to search…"
" Element 49?" Darwin interrupted without any politeness.
Yu He nodded again. He stammered,"Before we find, that, the government won't, won't-"
"They won't easily take down the Winter Treasury City?" Darwin thought about what Yu He meant.
Yu He nodded again. Then, he said," Time is tight. Now, the government has cut off the enemy's retreat. You have to hurry. The higher-ups didn't give you much time to investigate.”
Yu He finally stopped stuttering, but Darwin wasn't used to it. He suddenly missed the old Yu He.
"Is it just my group, Yu He?”
"No, the higher-ups have arranged many spies in the Winter Treasury City.”
"Then how do I know where they are? Are they friends or foes?”
The conversation between the two gradually returned to the main topic. Darwin turned his head and yawned. Yu He glared at him. He was obviously disrespecting him.
"I'm sorry."
"It doesn't matter. Just leave. Someone will meet you at the designated place.”Yu He continued to explain to Darwin,"You just need to remember the secret code."
"Please speak." asked Darwin.
Yu He thought about it and recalled what his superior had told him. Then, he explained to Darwin,"For example, someone would ask if you had breakfast today. Then you said that I haven't eaten yet. Then, he would continue to tell you that he knows a restaurant with good food. Would you like to try it? Then, you can say yes or yes.”
The air was silent for a few seconds.
Every time the air was quiet, the atmosphere would become abnormally strange. Did Darwin not understand, or did Yu He say something wrong?
Darwin nodded stiffly and asked,""Just like that?"
"What else?" Yu He took off his hat and put it back on. He had lost a lot of hair recently.
Darwin looked at Yu He's actions. He nodded on the surface, but then he thought about it in his heart. "I understand." Darwin said.
Yu He looked down at the time on his watch. He squinted his eyes, then looked up and told Darwin,"We're leaving at nine. Hurry up and get ready, Darwin.”
The two shook hands and said goodbye again.
.
Waiting for Joanna. When Jacqueline ran over, everyone was packing their luggage and preparing to leave.
He heard someone calling his name from afar, so he turned around to look.
Joanna carried her bag and ran in his direction in a retro black dress. She ran very fast and almost didn't get to see him for the last time.
Darwin stopped in his tracks and turned around to welcome her in surprise and joy. He then hugged her in his arms and was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"My dear." Joanna lay in his arms and rubbed her face against him reluctantly.
"Please wait for my return, young lady.”Darwin told her.
She raised her head sadly and pecked Darwin on the cheek. Tears fell down her cheeks like pearls that had been cut off.
That day, the weather was unusually cold and there was a strong wind…
