'Hero?' Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly and smiled, "Dear Miss Karelina, I feel that this is more like an insult to me.'
Hearing Zhou Ming say this, Karelina immediately refused, saying, "Mr. Zhou Ming, how can this be an insult? I am speaking from the heart, and it is a compliment to you!'
'Miss Karelina, I of course understand what you mean, and I also understand that you are speaking from the heart. However, I really cannot deserve this title in the current situation, and this title can only be a great irony to me,' said Zhou Ming.
As someone who has come all the way to Krisco with Zhou Ming, how could Katerina not understand the meaning of Zhou Ming's words? However, she still said, 'But you helped Mr. Nikolajevic, persuaded him to leave the White House, and gave a very successful speech. And he also promised you what he had promised. If he can successfully prevent the coup in the end, then his role may not be smaller than the Dota project.'
'You are talking about ifs, but do you really believe that he will keep his promise?' Zhou Ming asked in return, "You have to know that once he succeeds, he will most likely be the successor to this superpower.'
Faced with Zhou Ming's words, Kalelina was first stunned, and then said, "But Zhou Ming, didn't you say that if you can make him succeed, you will also be able to turn the situation around again? Since he wants to inherit this superpower, he will definitely have to compromise with you and make a certain deal with you, right?'
Zhou Ming nodded and said, 'I do have that ability, but have you thought about another question? If I want to turn the situation back again, what might that mean? Is that something you want to see?'
Upon hearing Zhou Ming's words, Kareina suddenly fell silent. He knew exactly what Zhou Ming meant, because the masterminds of this coup d'état had covered all the key departments of the party, government, and military. Now that it was only an almost trivial coup d'état, it had caused an uproar in Krisko and even the whole country, with everyone on edge. So what if they got serious? What if it really was a coup d'état?
Obviously, things have come to this point. Nikolayevich and his side cannot back down, and there is no way out. The coup side has also hardened its stance. Then it will be a very bloody purge.
As a native of Northern Russia, no matter how much she resents it, Kalelina's target is always those corrupt officials. She does not really want to lead her motherland down a bloody path, and she cannot let her compatriots suffer this kind of pain.
But if she doesn't do this, what about Zhou Ming? The Dota Project has already removed him from the list, and he can't play the cards he has in the Soviet Union and Northern Russia. He won't let him do that, so won't he just come to Krisko for nothing and gain nothing?
In fact, at this time, Kareina's thoughts were very conflicted. She clearly knew that Zhou Ming had come to plunder the wealth of her country, and in theory, she should have stopped him, but she just wanted Zhou Ming to succeed.
Kareina herself didn't understand what she was thinking. Perhaps she understood that some things were irreversible and destined to happen. Anyway, that wealth would eventually be plundered by someone, so it would be much better for it to be taken by a heroic figure like Zhou Ming than by someone else.
Thinking about this, Katerina firmly said to Ming Zhou, 'Mr. Ming Zhou, I believe you are the one I have been waiting for. You are a great hero. I believe a miracle will happen to you!'
Katerina's firmness made Ming Zhou feel a little surprised. Ming Zhou wanted to say something, but at this time, ** on the other side also said, 'Although I don't understand a lot of things, this time I agree with what Miss Katerina said. For you, Ming Zhou, a miracle will definitely happen.'
Zhou Ming was even more surprised, because since that case, **, who had originally been quite cheerful, had become taciturn. However, this was normal. After all, his heart was kind, and he was not really a homicidal maniac. He had just lost control of his emotions for a moment. Later, when he knew that he had done such a wrong thing and had so much innocent blood on his hands, how could he not feel guilty and how could he still be cheerful?
Of course, apart from guilt, he has also matured through this experience. I believe that if he were in a battlefield now, he would be a fearsome killer.
However, for Zhou Ming, their firm encouragement made him not know what to say, because what Zhou Ming actually wanted to say was that even if the Dota Project eliminated him, with his knowledge of the plan and his financial knowledge that surpassed the times, as long as there was a storm brewing over there, he could make a lot of money by fishing in the middle of the mess and doing whatever he could, perhaps even more than if he followed the Dota Project.
But now that they have so much confidence in themselves, he can't bring himself to say that. He doesn't want them to feel that the confidence he has given them is unnecessary.
Zhou Ming is like this. If you are ruthless, I will be more ruthless than you. But if you believe in yourself and support yourself so much, Zhou Ming will be at a loss.
In the end, he had to say, 'Okay, I can only believe that your belief will become a reality.'
Zhou Ming actually just said this casually, but at this time, he could not imagine that the firmness of ** and Kalelina, as well as his own casual remark, would actually come true as predicted. A miracle just came to them unprepared.
After leaving Villa 8 of Mr. Meta, Zhou Ming and the others went straight back to the hotel, because even though it was already spring in Krisko, the temperature at night was still very low. It was more comfortable to be in a heated room, but as soon as they arrived at the hotel entrance, they actually saw a familiar face.
When she walked to the hotel entrance, Kalenina saw a person lingering at the entrance and said with some surprise, 'Mr. Genosky, so you are here too?'
Karolina spoke deliberately loudly because this person was none other than the secretary of the current leader of the Northern Russian Republic, Nikolavich. Karolina wanted to attract his attention.
When Kinovsky heard Karolina's words, he immediately came running over in three quick steps, his face full of surprise, and said, 'Mr. Zhou Ming, it's so good that you've finally returned. I've finally waited for you!'
'Wait a minute, Mr. Genosky, did you just say that you were waiting for me here?' Zhou Ming keenly noticed the emphasis in his words.
Genosky nodded and said, 'Of course, I am waiting for you here, Mr. Zhou Ming. Mr. Nikolavich sent me here to wait for you. He told me to make sure to invite Mr. Zhou Ming back today. He has something very important to discuss with you.'
Zhou Ming and the others were suddenly filled with a sense of wonder, as if a large stone had been dropped into the water. They looked at each other in surprise, and it was clear that they had both thought of the miracle they had just mentioned.
'So, Mr. Zimin, I wonder how long you have been waiting here?'
Katerina asked, not noticing that her voice was shaking slightly, because she had already thought about the possibility of that miracle, but at the same time she was afraid to hear any other answer. After all, that miracle would always remain a miracle, no matter how much they believed in it, and it was very difficult to happen. That kind of anxiety made her unable to speak fluently, even for the most basic words.
Kinoski was probably also anxious at this time. He did not pick up on the problem with Karelina's tone, and simply answered honestly: 'I have been waiting here since 5 pm because Mr. Nikolic instructed me to wait until you arrived, so I have been waiting until now.'
If they had just now been a kind of deep hope in their hearts, then now they were completely certain that a miracle had really happened.
It may seem that nothing has happened, but in fact, it is quite the opposite. It is simple logic. The situation in Krško is now in plain sight. The struggle between the coup plotters and the opposition, including Nikolić, has reached a critical stage. As Nikolić's secretary, Kinski should be by his side, but how can he just wander around? He has been waiting here for hours.
At five o'clock, that was exactly the time when Zhou Ming and the others went to Villa 8, and it was almost nine o'clock when they returned here. Could it be possible that Zhanowski was allowed to wait here for such a long time if there was nothing particularly important?
Zhanowski did not know what Zhou Ming and the others were thinking. Seeing that Zhou Ming did not respond, he said anxiously, 'Mr. Zhou Ming, would you please set off now?'
Mr. Zhou Ming nodded and said, 'Okay, I understand. But Mr. Kinsky, you've been waiting here for such a long time, you must not have eaten yet, right? Seeing that you're having such a hard time, why don't you go to the hotel first, and I'll buy you dinner.'
Kinsky immediately shook his head and said, 'Thank you very much for your kindness, Mr. Zhou Ming, but no, I'm not hungry.'
Kinsky was in a hurry, and all he could think about was what Nikolaevich had told him when he left, so he had no mood to eat.
Zhou Ming, however, was not to be deterred and continued, 'Okay, but Mr. Genosky, you have to tell me what it is. Otherwise, I can't just run around. You know, the situation in your Krisco is not very good right now.'
'It is precisely because the situation in Krisco is so bad right now that Mr. Nikolic needs to invite you, Mr. Zhou Ming, to discuss it together! And would you please set off right away? Mr. Nikolic is still waiting for you at the White House!' Genosky said.
Zhou Ming said this on purpose, because for him, the biggest worry is the unknown. Now that things have been settled, there is nothing to worry about. Besides, Nikolic is so anxious to find him, so he must be asking for something. If he doesn't take control, how can he show his high status and make him value him more? How can he find a way to seize more benefits without doing so?
Now looking at Jinshi's expression, which looked as if he was about to cry, Zhou Ming had no choice but to reluctantly nod and say, 'Alright, I'll go with you.'
Jinshi was then like a person who had been showered with the emperor's grace, and he was full of gratitude towards Zhou Ming, 'Thank you, Mr. Zhou Ming!'
