Chapter 200 Commander Irina
Chapter 200 Commander Irina
"Unfortunately, a cage cannot contain a bird in flight."
Shen Qingqing put down her cutlery and said, "You know I can't do that."
“Heh,” Katherine chuckled softly, “What if you stay with me for two days?”
He didn't forget to throw out a tempting offer: "I won't force you to do anything you don't like. Just stay by my side for two days and you can get anything you want."
"Oh, really?" Shen Qingqing deliberately feigned disbelief.
"Yes, whether it's top-secret federal military equipment, pearls, gems, or rare delicacies, I can find it for you whatever you desire, Miss."
It must be said that the temptation offered by Katherine is attractive, but only for the average person.
Shen Qingqing felt that these things didn't hold any particular appeal for her, but perhaps Ge Yuan would like them.
“Okay,” Shen Qingqing agreed to his request, “but before that, I want to see someone else.”
"Your friend?" Katherine asked with a smile.
"You already knew, didn't you?"
“Please forgive my audacity in investigating your identities without my permission,” Katherine said apologetically, placing her right hand on her chest. “You mean your companion? I’m afraid she’s explaining things to the FBI right now.”
Shen Qingqing thought Ge Yuan had been tortured, and suddenly stood up, "What did you do to her?"
"Please don't rush, Miss Irina."
Katherine was eager to explain her innocence, "She was just taken in for questioning by the Bureau of Investigation. You don't need to worry too much about your friend's safety. Castor will respect everyone's wishes and protect every guest who has come from afar."
Hearing his explanation, Shen Qingqing felt relieved.
As long as nothing goes wrong, she can still go back and give Nordlin an explanation.
Although we still don't know where Nordlin has gone.
But Qingqing firmly believes that Nordlin will return one day.
It was late at night when Shen Qingqing and Ge Yuan met, and the two Zerg people embraced and wept bitterly.
"Qingqing, what are you doing here? Did that scoundrel bring you here? I knew men were all the same!"
Ge Yuan hugged Shen Qingqing and cursed her.
Although the woman's identity wasn't revealed, for some reason, Katherine knew that she was being insulted.
And the insults were very vulgar.
For a fleeting moment, Katherine felt a pang of guilt, but she quickly regained her composure and approached the two beauties.
“Miss…” Katherine lowered her posture considerably, showing none of the domineering air of a general, but rather the shyness one would expect from a beautiful woman.
"Please don't misunderstand, the Federation only brought you back because they were worried about military equipment being leaked."
Ge Yuan didn't care about his explanation. "So that's why they dragged me back from the stock exchange in front of all the celebrities and dignitaries?"
"Do you know how much face this makes me lose?"
"I'm sorry." Katherine knew that the Federation was also in the wrong.
After all, the original intention of the Federation was to treat every carbon-based life form equally.
Arresting this beautiful young lady in front of everyone without authorization clearly goes against the original intention.
"On behalf of the federal government, I apologize to you."
Ge Yuan snorted coldly, her face full of speechlessness.
"Therefore, after you two complete the identity verification, you can be classified as citizens and enjoy the same rights as citizens, and I promise to compensate you."
Their seemingly flawless words were full of doubt about their identities.
Ge Yuan and Shen Qingqing exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other's intentions.
"It seems the Federation still doesn't trust us. It's quite difficult for you to go to such lengths to find out our identities."
After looking around, Ge Yuan felt that it would be difficult for Shen Qingqing and his own combat power to break through the encirclement.
Seeing their reactions, Katherine understood that they probably didn't want their identities to be exposed.
He had no choice but to suppress his own thoughts. "If you don't want citizenship, there are other forms of compensation. Ladies, would you like money or something else?"
Ge Yuan naturally chose to have them all.
The Zerg are currently facing economic difficulties and a shortage of various resources.
Every little bit helps.
Having received the benefits and information, Ge Yuan pretended to pull Shen Qingqing away, but was stopped by Katherine.
"Hmm? What, you're trying to stop me?" Ge Yuan, who was at eye level with him, said with an unfriendly expression.
Katherine had a strong liking for this tall, beautiful woman, and even if she didn't reciprocate, it didn't stop her from admiring her.
“That…Ge Yuan.”
Shen Qingqing tugged at Ge Yuan's skirt and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "I promised to stay here for two days."
"You sold yourself?"
“No,” Shen Qingqing explained earnestly, “it’s a loan.”
Upon hearing her explanation, Ge Yuan instantly realized that her little insect mother had been deceived by another man. She was furious and wanted nothing more than to rush up and slap that man twice.
What kind of skill is it to lie to children?
Go ahead and try to fool her if you dare!
She'll beat him so badly he'll be crawling on the ground!
"Tsk." Ge Yuan was still worried about letting Shen Qingqing be alone with him.
So...
Such a scene unfolded in the interstellar federation command center:
The most powerful general on Caster Star was protecting a petite young lady, behind whom stood a tall, stunningly beautiful woman with pink hair.
The three of them looked incredibly cool in their formation.
Soon, rumors spread in the Federal Command Center that General Katherine had become a sycophant.
Katherine herself didn't care about the matter, and even secretly hoped that the rumors would spread.
As soon as Shen Qingqing entered Katherine's private command room, she sensed a familiar presence.
Like Ge Yuan, they all looked towards a corner of the command room.
There was a figure with its back to them.
Judging from the silhouette from behind, it is a woman.
General Katherine stepped forward, bowed to the figure, and said respectfully, "Commander Irina, I have brought the person."
Hearing him call out "Irina" to that figure, Shen Qingqing immediately felt that her lie was somewhat clumsy.
The name I came up with just happened to be someone's high-ranking official; I'm incredibly lucky.
As Commander Irina stood up, the aura of the Zerg became even stronger.
It wasn't until Shen Qingqing made eye contact with her that she realized the commander of Castor Star was actually a Zerg!
Irina is over 400 years old, which is no more than middle age in the Zerg age group. Her red hair and red eyes give her an initial impression of being passionate and fiery.
Shen Qingqing was stunned, and didn't even react when Irina walked up to her.
Irina looked up beside her, took a deep breath, and showed a satisfied expression.
Then he slowly began to speak, "Welcome to the Interstellar Federation Headquarters, my guests."
