MTL - Is the End Really Coming?-Chapter 20 Require
"…"
"…"
"…"
The meeting room fell into silence.
Zhou Qi's voice was not loud, but just enough to be heard clearly.
His tone was not impassioned, not even decisive, just plainly talking about a trivial matter such as eating and drinking.
But it is the meaning contained in such plain words that makes people tremble.
Even a little psychedelic.
All, all contributed? ?
How much wealth would that be? ?
Just a small "glass of water" can cure cancer that is incurable by modern science. If there is something more powerful, wouldn't the whole country be invincible?
All of a sudden, everyone was excited.
Looking at Zhou Qi, there was a little more recognition and admiration in his eyes.
And on the other side,
Director Liu was also a little stunned.
Because, many, many things he was going to say have not been able to be said yet, but Zhou Qi has already stated the ultimate goal that he wants him to say at this meeting.
So much so that now he can only stare at Zhou Qi, not knowing what to say.
This, this kid, is too direct, right?
Not even talking about the price?
But at this moment,
"However," Zhou Qi suddenly changed his tone.
In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire conference room changed.
Everyone, including Director Liu, was shocked.
They realized that
Start all over again.
All the adults present understood one truth:
The most basic principle for people to get along with each other is the interaction of interests, whether it is material or spiritual.
Those great people who make selfless dedication may have simple material needs, but what they gain is a sense of national mission and honor, or a sense of satisfaction in exploring the unknown and the truth.
In short, they realized their self-worth.
And what about the boy in front of you?
In the hearts of everyone present, this boy is no longer an ordinary boy. Beneath that youthful appearance, there is an old heart!
He is a person who has experienced countless "doomsday"!
Then, what does he want?
no one knows.
They only knew that what the boy said next might cause an uproar!
for a time,
Zhou Qi's two words successfully raised everyone's heart. They all stared at the young boy's mouth intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to see what he could say.
However.
In front of everyone's eyes, after Zhou Qi uttered two words, he fell into deep thought again, as if he was deliberating, not knowing how to express it.
This made the hearts of the people present more and more nervous, and the atmosphere became more and more depressing.
Finally, Director Liu broke the deadlock with a serious expression. He asked in a condensed voice:
"But what? Comrade Zhou Qi, feel free to mention anything you want. Since you are willing to dedicate so many important things to the country, the country will try its best to meet all your requirements."
Zhou Qi heard the words and finally nodded slowly.
He said more and more seriously:
"Okay... I do have a request, and only one request."
Everyone's faces were serious, some held their chins, and some leaned forward.
And Director Liu also said with a serious face: "You say it."
At this time, everyone is ready, no matter what Zhou Qi asks, he must keep calm and prepare.
So, Zhou Qi lightly spit out a sentence:
"I want to return to my normal life."
Director Liu: ?
other people:? ?
A group of people directly question mark faces.
Normal life?
Did you hear it wrong?
It's kind of incomprehensible...
A middle-aged woman who should be the director asked with a trembling voice: "Zhou Qi... classmate, when you say normal life, you mean..."
Zhou Qi nodded: "It literally means, I want to go back to school, study, go to school, then graduate, work...etc, just to experience the life an ordinary person should have."
Everyone's eyes trembled and they looked at each other slowly.
From the expressions on their faces, it can be seen that they all heard correctly...
But, isn't this a bit too playful?
At this time, Zhou Qi cleared his throat again and added, "In detail, it is...
I signed a ten-year contract with the country... um, tentatively set for ten years,
In this decade, I will provide the country with advanced technologies in various fields in a reasonable manner, and a more detailed contract will be drawn up for this specific content.
In the past ten years, I need the state to seal up and keep my information secret and not open it to the public, so that I can integrate into the world of normal people and experience ordinary life..."
"…"
"…"
Now I understand a little bit.
The conference room fell into a weird atmosphere, and the policemen sometimes looked at Zhou Qi and sometimes looked at each other.
After several seconds of eye contact with several leading cadres, Director Liu replied hesitantly: "Zhou Qi, we don't quite understand your request, but I will report it to my superiors truthfully... But before that, can I Ask, why?"
"No reason." Zhou Qi smiled and shook his head, "Director Liu, this is just a small request from a child who has acquired 'supernatural abilities', without any deep meaning or purpose, I just want to return to a normal life. Go, quietly enjoy the normal world without doomsday, and by the way, do something I like... okay?"
"..." Director Liu frowned and looked at him.
Of course not impossible.
Zhou Qiti's request, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is very simple and clear,
It can even be said that he is very sensible, but he is too sensible.
Also, it is easy to understand.
If Zhou Qi is compared to an "old man" who has really experienced a lot, then what he really wants now may be a flat and stable life.
This is very logical.
but…
The more this happened, the more Director Liu felt that something was wrong.
At least... order something?
He took a light breath and said slowly: "Comrade Zhou Qi, I can understand your request and probably know what you want, but let me remind you first...you are with us, the state government, and the central government of the country. In the eyes of the government, you are already a high-risk person, and even if the country allows you to return to society, it is impossible to have no restrictions at all.”
Zhou Qi smiled: "Of course, there are no rules and no circles. Since I choose this way, I will naturally accept the side effects of the choice... Well, I will always live safely under the state's 'supervision', but as compensation , the state provides me with some privileges, should it be no problem? Not much, as long as I and my family, friends, etc. are not harmed, and on the premise of ensuring a normal life, we will not be unnecessarily troubled and hindered Just affect..."
"…"
The audience fell silent.
Everyone understood what Zhou Qi meant.
However, when the problem has risen to this level, they are no longer able to say anything.
Only Director Liu nodded slowly and heavily.
"I will submit your request to my superiors truthfully..."
"Yeah." Zhou Qi smiled and nodded: "Then we can now talk about how to supervise me and how I should provide technology."
