Kyoto International Exhibition Center.
We're safe for now.
In the dressing room, Su Hang took off his heavy Imperial Emperor leather suit, revealing his bare back, which was drenched in sweat and steaming hot. "With Huyan Lan and Yin Long helping to distract the pursuers, we can rest here for a while."
"Senior, let me wipe your sweat."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Yugong Liuli knelt on the floor, wrung out a wet towel, and asked softly, "If Sister Xiao Lan and Yin Long are unfortunately arrested, will something bad happen to them?"
"No, that won't happen."
Su Hang sat down on the bench and opened a can of sugar-free cola.
Just now, he rode his motorcycle into the convention center, used the dense crowds of the comic convention to shake off his pursuers, and then quickly handed over his identity to Huyan Lan and Yin Long, who had been waiting for him.
The two of them will play the roles of Exalted Emperor Liuli, continuing their life on the run.
"The people your Yugong Family wants to capture are you and me, along with Hu Xiao and your brother Nishang. It's being broadcast live online from a helicopter. Your Yugong Family won't make things difficult for Huyan Lan and Yin Long, so don't worry."
With gentle eyes, Yugong Liuli carefully wiped her eyes. "Senior, so our final destination in this escape isn't Kyoto Airport, but somewhere else?"
"Mmm." Su Hang nodded. "Plan A is for me to rescue you from the shrine on a motorcycle, shake off the pursuers, head straight to Kyoto Airport, and escape back to Huaxia on your brother Nishang's private plane."
"But Plan A is too rational. If your Yugong Family reacts quickly enough to have the police set up roadblocks and the military take over the airport, then we'll be walking into a trap."
"Therefore, based on Plan A, Plan B was developed, which involved switching identities with Huyan Lan and Yin Long at the comic convention."
Yugong Liuli suddenly realized, and then asked, "So where are we going to escape Kyoto later?"
Su Hang whispered, "We're not going anywhere, we'll just wait here!"
Yugong Liuli paused in wringing out the towel. "Wait?"
Su Hang said, word by word, "Wait for the attitude of my motherland Huaxia."
Yugong Liuli tilted her head. " Huaxia... attitude?"
Su Hang opened the international version of Douyin and said, " Kyoto is now under martial law under the guise of a joint military-police counter-terrorism exercise. Train stations, airports, and ports are completely sealed off. It's only a matter of time before we're arrested."
"I have no choice but to risk my life and take a gamble, betting that my motherland, Huaxia, will not stand idly by and will... come to my rescue."
Yugong Liuli's heart trembled slightly. "Could this be the reason why you rescued my younger brother, Nishang, and had him broadcast it live online?"
"Right!"
Su Hang nodded emphatically. "On the one hand, as the heir to the Yugong Family, his words carry authority and credibility. It would be most appropriate for him to expose the family's evil human sacrifice culture live."
"On the other hand, broadcasting it live across the entire internet was also to let my motherland, Huaxia, see that my act of kidnapping the bride was a righteous but helpless act; I just wanted to rescue my team members from the evil culture of human sacrifice."
Su Hang's voice gradually faded.
His grandfather taught him from a young age not to cause trouble for the country and to overcome difficulties if possible, and he had always followed this advice. But this time, he was at his wit's end and, as an ordinary person with no connections, could only rely on the power of the country!
Yugong Liuli hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
Su Hang lowered his head and chuckled softly, "I know what you're trying to say. If my motherland, Huaxia, doesn't care about this, what should I do?"
"I've seen a movie called Wolf Warrior, starring Wu Jing. There's a scene in the movie that I remember very clearly: Wu Jing takes out his Huaxia passport, and there's a sentence written on the back."
Yugong Liuli asked, "What did you say?"
"Citizens of the People's Republic of Huaxia, when you encounter danger overseas, do not give up. Remember, behind you is a powerful motherland."
Su Hang took out his passport from his pocket and handed it to Yugong Liuli. "Later, when I applied for my passport to go abroad, I discovered that there was no such sentence on the back of the passport. It was just a fictional plot in the movie."
"Empty... blank?"
Yugong Liuli stared blankly at the back of Su Hang's passport, lost in thought.
Su Hang took a sip of sugar-free cola. "When I came to Kyoto, I kept thinking, if my motherland, Huaxia, were personified, what would she be like? I suddenly thought of my mother."
"Mother?"
Su Hang's eyes showed a hint of reminiscence, "When I was a child, whenever I got into a fight at school, my mother would beat me up without even asking what happened, and then make me apologize to the classmate I had beaten up."
"Then one time, I got into a fight at school again. My mother was called to the school again. She beat me up while apologizing to the other student. The parents of the student who was beaten up were not satisfied and pushed me to the ground."
"My mother immediately lost her temper, swung her arm, and slapped the parent across the face twice, knocking him to the ground. She said something that I will never forget."
Yugong Liuli asked, "What did you say?"
"That's my son. I can hit him, but no one else can lay a finger on him."
Su Hang smiled and said, "Thinking about it later, it seems Huaxia mothers are the same. I can discipline my child however I want, but if an outsider were to discipline my child, I would be the first to object!"
"The back of the passport was indeed blank, but I found a sentence on the second page."
Yugong Liuli turned to the second page of her passport.
Su Hang recited, " The People's Republic of Huaxia requests that all military and political authorities of all countries grant the holder of the license passage convenience and necessary assistance."
Yugong Ryu's eyes lit up. "The implication is that we hope your country can be more tolerant, helpful, and polite to those holding Huaxia passports. If you don't do that, then we'll have to cause trouble for your country."
"That's right, to use my mother's plain language..." Su Hang clenched his fist, "If my son makes a mistake, I'll discipline him myself, but if you dare to discipline him for me, then I'll have to give you a good slap."
Yugong Liuli said with a hint of envy, "Your mom is really awesome."
"Is it imposing?"
Su Hang glanced sideways and said, "But she died a long time ago."
"I'm sorry, senpai," Yugong Liuli said anxiously, hurriedly explaining, "I... I didn't mean to bring up something that sad for you."
"It's okay," Su Hang shrugged. "I'm used to it anyway."
After the little incident...
Yugong Liuli asked, "Senior, what exactly is the attitude from Huaxia that you're waiting for?"
"A evacuation notice!" Su Hang replied without hesitation, "A evacuation notice from the Chinese Kyoto General in Huaxia for overseas Chinese."
The Kyoto Consulate General is a level below the Tokyo Embassy. It is an office set up by the Huaxia in Kyoto to provide emergency shelter services for overseas Chinese living in Kyoto.
However, both the Kyoto Consulate General and the Tokyo Embassy are sacred and inviolable, equivalent to a small piece of Huaxia territory in Japan. Unauthorized intrusion could seriously trigger a crisis between the two countries.
Yugong Liuli suddenly understood, "The reason you chose to hide at the International Convention Center is because the Huaxia Consulate General is just across the street!"
Su Hang got up and walked to the window, looking down at the building with the red flag fluttering in the wind. "Once we receive the evacuation notice, we can enter the Kyoto Consulate General, and then we'll be completely safe."
