Vol 2 Chapter 5337: Seventy-two hours (9)

He Tianya and Mulan walked into the castle. An old man with white hair was sitting on the sofa in the hall. His feet were not wearing shoes, and he stepped on the expensive wool carpet.
The flame in the fireplace was burning very vigorously, making the whole hall very warm.
After the man in the wheelchair led He Tianya to the living room, he turned and left.
At this moment, news is playing on the big TV in the living room.
China News.
The news background is a picture with white text on a black background.
There are two big words on the top—
Obituaries.
When he saw this picture, the smile on He Tianya's face suddenly solidified.
Yes, the smile did not disappear, but it looked like it was frozen on his face.
He Tianya grinned, but tears slowly filled his eyes.
Because, the host in the TV news has already begun to introduce Bai Keqing's life, and the sorrow and joy have also been heard.
Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, and although he had decided to make some changes for this moment, when he really came to this day, He Tianya still found that the weight of those griefs was still far away. Far beyond his own limit.
Seeing his father's portrait appearing in the background of the obituary, He Tianya's throat rolled up and down a few times. He grinned open his unclosed lips and began to tremble.
Although he was uncomfortable with his father's behavior in the past, even though he and he often had disputes, and even the father and son often fell into a cold war, but at this moment, this kind of life and death separated by thousands of miles is still too shocking.
That kind of suffocation makes one's mind and body fall into a state of collapse at the same time.
He Tianya always thinks that he is not afraid of anything, and that he can do everything he can. However, now he is very afraid to see his father's body-even if it is across the TV screen and thousands of miles away.
The old man sitting on the sofa did not bother by saying anything. He was waiting for the news to finish, so as to give He Tianya a time to buffer his emotions.
Mulan stood quietly on the side, saying nothing, there was still no expression on her pretty face, which was in stark contrast with the complicated situation of He Tianya on the side.
She and her father had been separated for many years, and she didn't know whether the other party was alive or dead. Therefore, Mulan still understood He Tianya's true feelings at the moment.
"Haha, it's ridiculous. My father has passed away. As a son, I can only get the news through TV thousands of miles away." He Tianya shook his head, his face was full of self-deprecation, and his eyes were full of sadness.
When I really came to this moment, I realized that all the previous psychological preparations were useless and useless.
This news was broadcast for a full twenty minutes, and after the obituary, Bai Keqing’s life and deeds were introduced. Such a long broadcast is very rare during the prime time of China News. There is no doubt that after Bai Keqing’s death, at least On the surface, Huaxia gave him the highest respect.
The mistakes that Bai Keqing had committed have all temporarily disappeared, and his whole life has been concluded, and his own merits and demerits will be judged by later generations.
The time for the memorial service is scheduled for a day and a half later.
I don't know if it was a coincidence. The time when the memorial service started was exactly the time when the seventy-two hours ended here.
After the news broadcast ended and there was a long silence, the old man sitting on the sofa said: "Unfortunately, he, your father is very good. He could have been an outstanding politician."
"No, I think he is good enough now." He Tianya's eyes were bloodshot.
There was a smile on his face: "My father actually didn't know that, for a long time in the past, I took him as my role model."
After a short pause, He Tianya said again: "However, now, I have no chance to tell him this."
His eyes were sad and his voice was low.
However, as his voice fell, the sad eyes began to slowly converge from He Tianya's eyes.
"You Huaxia have an old saying, beggar to turn sadness into motivation. I like this sentence very much. This is why I have been supporting me until now." The old man sitting on the sofa said, "Because I have always been in a state of grief and betrayal. In, this is the background color of my life."
"I didn't expect that you are still alive." He Tianya tried to suppress all the emotions in his heart, squeezed out a smile, and said, "After all, I have read your name from the history books of my student days. Of course, the ones that circulate more widely are the collections of jokes with you as the protagonist."
"Well, for example, the story of me and the pig, the story of me and the driver, the story of a drunk speech in England, and the story of knocking on the table with Arab representatives' leather shoes at the United Nations General Assembly." The old man smiled, not at all. He didn't think He Tianya's words offended him. He said: "Except for the last thing that is true, the front is all nonsense, but I am very happy that I can bring joy to everyone in this way."
"Actually, now, everyone thinks that you are a very humorous person." He Tianya said.
"Your words are very humorous." The old man said with a smile, "I like you very much, a young man from China."
"Thank you for your evaluation, Mr. Bonev." He Tianya said.
Bonev!
He was once Plevich's teacher!
Only later, the relationship between this pair of famous masters and apprentices was not too harmonious.
In Europe, Bonev must be regarded as a relatively failed leader of a country. After all, under his leadership, a certain superpower quickly fell into decline, and it is still in a state of failure.
However, this has little to do with Bonev’s own leadership. Many things are determined by the times, and no one can stop the torrent of the times.
Nowadays, many historians and sociologists are reversing Bonev's case. After all, from the current point of view, many of Bonev's actions at that time were very advanced and his vision was also very sharp. The strength of the power to push a country that can be called a behemoth to carry out reforms, the difficulty is hell-level, the resistance encountered is unimaginable, and the failure is expected.
You are right, but you appeared at the wrong time.
"Sit down and talk." Bonev pointed to the sofa next to him, picked up the remote control and turned off the TV.
He beckoned, and a servant came over and poured two glasses of wine for He Tianya and Mulan.
The strong smell of alcohol began to fill the room.
"It's vodka." He Tianya smiled, "This makes me suspect that the previous jokes are true."
"It's true that I love to drink. Vodka is warmer than a bearskin coat in this cold place for thousands of miles." Bonev said with a smile.
He Tianya picked up the wine glass and drank it in one go. The strong pungent sensation instantly spread in his mouth like an explosion.
From the throat to the stomach, it was filled with a hot sensation.
This hotness and the sadness in his heart mixed together, making He Tianya's eyes redder, and tears slipped down from the corners of his eyes.
Mulan also drank the glass of vodka, but she seemed to have a moderate amount of alcohol and was choked to cough several times.
, There was also a touch of red on the pretty face.
"Being able to come to me means that you want to destroy." Bonev first looked at He Tianya, and then his gaze shifted to Mulan: "The same goes for this girl with special physique."
Obviously, Bonev had already seen through Mulan's true identity at a glance.
"It is said that her former boss has a very good relationship with you." He Tianya said.
"Yes, it's a pity that he chose to quit, and he is unwilling to continue this great cause with me." Bonev said, "To cooperate with me, you must have a fire of hatred burning in your heart. Now, you two, both It meets this condition and is a qualified partner."
With that, he stretched out his hand.
He Tianya shook hands with Bonev before saying: "Have you always had the fire of hatred in your heart?"
"Of course there is, but my hatred is not because of those jokes, but because of countless betrayals." Bonev said with a smile: "Let us work together, and let those who betray us pay the price of their lives. ."
After hearing this, He Tianya nodded deeply, and then said: "Will that involve many innocent people?"
"Living is the original sin. No one is truly innocent." Bonev looked at He Tianya and said, "Besides, do you care about the lives of those people?"
"Don't care." He Tianya laughed, with a cruel smell in his eyes.
...
A few hours later, He Tianya and Mulan left the ice and snow castle. They quickly went away on a dog sled, leaving a few long traces in this white world.
"He is a pervert," Mulan said.
This "him", of course, refers to Bonev.
"What about me? Am I not a pervert?" He Tianya said with a smile, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
It seems that the decision to cooperate with Bonev made him feel relieved.
In fact, from the time when He Tianya "accepted" Mulan, this cooperation was inevitable, it was just a matter of time.
This is also from the arrangement of Mulan's former boss.
Mulan didn't answer the question of whether it was abnormal or not, obviously she already had a relevant answer in her heart.
He Tianya stretched out, "Destroy it, hurry up."
Mulan nodded: "The destruction has already begun."
He Tianya pursed his lips and smiled.
"Just, why did Bonev do this?" Mulan asked.
"There are probably two reasons."
He Tianya said: "On the one hand, he is very old and there is not much time to live. Moreover, if I am not mistaken, what has supported him to live until now is the flame of hatred in his chest. "
"What about the second reason?" Mulan asked again.
"The collection of jokes about Bonev is circulating all over the world. He said that he is willing to bring happiness to people in this way, but if it is you, would you like to become this kind of clown in your own image?" said At this point, He Tianya smiled again, "However, now that I think about it, the jokes in the Bonev era are really interesting."
Due to the hugely circulated collection of jokes, most people in the world now think that Bonev is a funny clown, and it is almost impossible to reverse it.
Mulan listened, thought about it carefully, and said, "Then I think the second reason is more important."
"By the way, the previous man in a wheelchair..." He Tianya asked.
"He is the sheriff." Mulan's voice was soft.
