On another street in the middle of the city, which was not far away from the factory, stood a seven-story building. Judging from the appearance, it looked like a hotel. As a matter of fact, Ding Meng had seen such a building in the Flying Star City before. It was exactly the kind of mobile hotel with a view view.
Strangely enough, although the Flying Star City was not small, there were only a few of them on the street. Of course, Ding Meng was not stupid enough to think that they were the only people in the city. The Hidden Front base was so secretive that there must be other armed forces here other than the Reconstructed Warriors.
Ding Meng sat down in a luxurious private room on the third floor of the hotel, accompanied by the instructor and the others.
The room was decorated in an antique style, which reminded him of Lan Bing's villa in Huating Mountain Villa. The style of the villa was exactly the same as this one. There was a rockery fountain in the middle of the room, surrounded by potted plants and screens. There was also an ink-style painting on the east wall, which was a vivid and magnificent picture of an eagle spreading its wings and soaring in the sky.
Next to the fountain was a small round sandalwood table that could seat six people. Compared to the grand scale of the room, this table seemed a little out of place. However, what was even more exaggerated was that there was a buffet on the table. In front of everyone was a plate of egg fried rice, a plate of spicy cabbage, and a plate of sausages. There wasn't even a drink. Moreover, it didn't look very good. Was this the so-called welcoming banquet? Zhang Heng was surprised.
All the information indicated that the Hidden Front was an organization with amazing financial resources, but this was the welcome banquet?
Wasn't it a little too stingy?
The butler was obviously good at reading people's expressions. He explained with a smile, "Mr. Ting, do you think this banquet is a little too shabby?"
Ding Meng smiled. "I've always felt good as long as there's something to eat."
His words revealed that he was a little dissatisfied. The stationmaster quickly explained, "Boss has always been against extravagance and waste. We haven't enjoyed a banquet like this for many years."
Of course, the people sitting at this table, except for Han Feng, basically did not need to eat. Ding Meng was still a little surprised. "You haven't eaten for many years?"
This time, it was the instructor who answered. He nodded silently. "That's right, eating isn't a good thing."
"Oh?" Ding Meng's interest was piqued again. "That's quite a novel idea."
The instructor said in a deep voice, "When a person likes to eat, it's very difficult for him to spare any energy to think while eating. From a scientific point of view, when a person eats, the brain's operating speed will correspondingly decrease. Therefore, people who like to eat are often not very smart."
Ding Meng didn't like this argument because he was a foodie. However, this didn't stop him from agreeing with this point of view. Origin ability users should have no distractions and achieve a state of true focus.
The butler smiled and said, "But Mr. Ting, you don't have to take it to heart. If you like good food, this station will mobilize all resources to satisfy your request."
The stationmaster also smiled and said, "Tomorrow is the day that Officer Number Five will return. Officer Number Five is especially fond of good food, so if Mr. Ting isn't in a hurry to leave, you can exchange some insights with Officer Number Five."
Ding Meng smiled. "It seems that I can't leave even if I want to."
These words had a double meaning, but the expressions of the instructor and the others didn't change.
The welcoming banquet ended very quickly, not even half an hour later. After the banquet ended, the instructor and the stationmaster left, leaving only the butler to accompany Ding Meng.
The top floor of the hotel was located on the seventh floor. This was also a very simple yet very luxurious suite. The Hidden Front was very frugal when it came to "eating", but it was very extravagant when it came to "living".
This suite actually had six rooms. Other than the bedroom and guest room, there was one room for the three major cabins, one for the anti-gravity training room, and the most amazing thing was the last room. It was actually a fully automated smart restaurant.
This was obviously prepared for Ding Meng alone. There were two robot chefs in the restaurant who could synthesize artificial food according to Ding Meng's preferences. Of course, the food made by these robots definitely wouldn't be as delicious as the original ingredients, but it was just to satisfy one's taste buds.
The butler explained, "Mr. Ting, if you have any needs, just let me know. I can also guarantee that any request you have at this station will be satisfied."
Han Feng was obviously riding on Ding Meng's coattails. It was lucky that he hadn't been taken away yet. He actually took the initiative to jump out and say, "Sir, can you get a waiter to serve you? Boss Ding can call for anything he wants at any time."
This guy really didn't change his lust. How could the butler not understand what he was implying? He smiled and explained, "No problem."
She pressed a few buttons on her wristwatch, and immediately, a remote instant messaging connection came in. There were as many as eight mirror images that connected, and they were all beautiful women with smiles on their faces. Although these people weren't the top natural beauties, they were still amazingly beautiful. Moreover, each of them had a unique style and didn't look like a prostitute at all. Looking at the different styles of dressing and different temperaments, one could tell that this group of people was very high quality.
The butler smiled and said, "Mr. Ting, please take your pick. They won't disappoint a distinguished guest like you. I can guarantee that any one of them will be able to spend a pleasant night with you."
Han Feng was so excited that his eyes almost popped out of his head. However, Ding Meng waved his hand and said, "I don't really like these things."
The butler was a little confused. "Mr. Ting, don't you like the opposite sex?"
"That's not it!"
Ding Meng laughed and said, "If you really want me to choose one, then I can only say that I'm not satisfied with any of these people."
The butler said, "Then I'll get you another batch to try …"
"No!" Ding Meng decisively interrupted her. "You do it!"
The butler smiled. "Mr. Ting, you're joking."
In fact, this housekeeper was not ugly at all. On the contrary, she was very feminine. Her face was round and slender, mixed with a kind of charming and generous beauty. Her bright dress showed off her figure incisively and vividly, especially her snow-white chest that made it hard for people to look away. To be precise, this housekeeper was a stunner among women.
However, this was only on the surface, because through Ding Meng's telekinetic vision, he could see that the butler's face was very thick with makeup. In fact, the butler was already quite old, and there were many wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and chin. Coupled with the butler's strong personal strength, she was definitely an old monster who was more than a hundred years old or even a few hundred years old. How could such an old woman attract the interest of a young man?
Therefore, Ding Meng's hand decisively pointed to the side. His real target was Guan Lin. "If it's not convenient for the butler, how about we get her to do it?"
This time, the butler's expression finally changed.
She became hesitant. "Mr. Ting, Number 50 is only in charge of the transportation. I'm afraid she doesn't match your status, right?"
Ding Meng smiled. His smile was strange and mysterious. "This kind of thing has nothing to do with status. I just like her type. Butler, think about it. Miss Guan can live until now mainly because I like her. Otherwise, she would have died on the Songqing spaceship on the way here. Since the Hidden Front Boss is so hospitable and considerate, I don't think he would mind if Miss Guan spent a night with me, right?"
This was a huge amount of information. The butler seemed to be silent for a long time before she nodded slowly and firmly. She still said the same four words. "No problem!"
Guan Lin looked at Ding Meng in shock. Han Feng, who was beside her, looked resentful.
The butler quickly left, taking Han Feng with her. Only Ding Meng and Guan Lin were left in the spacious bedroom. Guan Lin was very calm. She looked at Ding Meng on the sofa with a suspicious expression. "Didn't you say you weren't interested in me?
But now you want me to stay. "
Ding Meng didn't answer. He just looked at her quietly. Ding Meng's gaze was deep, as if he was thinking about something. It was this expressionless expression that made Guan Lin's hair stand on end. Ding Meng's gaze was like a knife, as if he was dissecting her body.
"You can go take a shower first!" Ding Meng suddenly said. He sounded like a womanizer.
Guan Lin was shocked. "You're not really going to do that kind of thing to me, are you?"
Ding Meng looked thoughtful. "What if it's true?"
Guan Lin sneered. "You know who I am. Although I'm not the boss's official wife, you should know this principle. Big shots like you all have a group of women that belong to you. If someone touched your woman and made you a cuckold, how would you feel?"
Ding Meng was cold and expressionless. "If that's the case, why did the butler agree to my rude request?"
Guan Lin was stunned. She suddenly realized that Ding Meng was very cunning. His request to the butler was actually to test the bottom line of the Hidden Front. She couldn't help but grit her teeth and say, "That's because the boss isn't on this space station."
Ding Meng said again, "Although the boss of the Hidden Front isn't here, if I'm not wrong, when he's not around, all the decisions in this place are made by the instructor, the station chief, and the butler. Although the instructor and the station chief weren't in this room just now, I believe that they authorized the butler. Don't ask me why, because I can see it."
Even if Guan Lin didn't want to admit it, she couldn't help but admire Ding Meng's sharp eyes.
Ding Meng continued, "Do you think that your position in your boss's heart is actually not as important as you think?"
Guan Lin's expression at this moment undoubtedly admitted this point.
Ding Meng said, "You're wrong!"
Guan Lin was shocked once again. "Isn't that the case?"
Ding Meng said seriously, "You're actually very important. You should be a very important part of his plan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have turned you into his woman and made you follow him wholeheartedly."
Guan Lin was confused. "Then why …"
Ding Meng interrupted her. "Why did the butler dare to agree to my indecent request? It's because I'm here. You're important, but I'm more important than you. In comparison, you're not that important. Naturally, you'll be pushed out to be sacrificed."
Guan Lin suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. "I don't believe it!"
Ding Meng suddenly changed the topic. "How many years have you been following him?"
Guan Lin said, "Four years!"
Ding Meng said, "You were kidnapped seven years ago, and you only decided to follow him four years ago?"
Guan Lin took a deep breath. "Because during those three years, I slowly found that he was more reliable than Chuangyu."
Ding Meng said, "So you trust him?"
Guan Lin said, "Yes!"
Ding Meng sneered disdainfully. "Who is he?
What's his name?
What does he look like?
What's his background?
Do you know this information? "
Guan Lin looked stubborn. "That's not important!"
Ding Meng sneered even more. "You don't know anything about this person. How dare you trust him?
He doesn't even dare to show his face when you're in private contact with him. What is he afraid of? "
