Chapter 27 Anyone Can Be a Mother (Please Read On)

"Have you forgotten the mission the Trisolarans gave you?"

Luo Qing couldn't help but interrupt.

There was no way to leave her alone; if she didn't, the girl would lift up her clothes and shove Luo Zhenxing's head inside, even though Luo Qing doubted whether her meager chest could bear the burden of raising a child.

He was sitting right across from me.

"Whoa whoa……"

Hypatia blushed and hugged Luo Zhenxing tightly. After thinking for a while, she finally spoke.

"Lord—I'll still call him Lord, that's what everyone in the organization calls him. Lord guided me here so that he could use me to communicate with you."

Luo Qing could sense that the Sophon was currently inside Hypatia's brain. At this distance, it would be difficult for him to use the same trick to destroy this extremely vigilant second Sophon.

Hypatia said, "What I am about to say is a live retelling. You can answer, and Somo can hear you."

Luo Qing nodded.

With everyone in the tavern straining to hear, the third informal conversation between the Wallfacer and the Trisolarans began.

Hypatia/Sophon: "Mr. Luo Qing, we are sorry that this is the only way we can communicate with you. You pose a great threat to the Sophon Project, and this is the only way we can do it."

Luo Qing: "Spit it out if you have something to say."

Hypatia/Tomoko: "We are willing to negotiate with you; this is a sincere negotiation."

Luo Qing: "I do not accept private negotiations. You can negotiate with the United Nations or the PDC. The attitude of the United Nations or the PDC is my attitude."

Hypatia said, "The writings of the Sophon have disappeared."

Luo Qing: "Please be patient and wait a moment."

About three minutes later.

Hypatia/Sophon: "We have completed our communications with the leaders of the UN Security Council member states, the UN Secretary-General, and the rotating chairman of the Planetary Defense Council (PDC). They unanimously agree that Wallfacer Luo Qing will represent humanity in these negotiations with the Trisolaran civilization, and the UN and the PDC will respect Mr. Luo Qing's negotiation results."

Luo Qing: “…”

These politicians have kicked the ball back to him again, isn't that something?

Luo Qing looked around the gloomy bar. If the first formal negotiations between human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization were to take place here, he would have nothing to say.

The drunks in the tavern were completely dumbfounded.

The small television in the pub, which had been broadcasting a football program, was suddenly interrupted. A member of the Norwegian royal family was standing on the television, solemnly announcing:
"This is the Norwegian Royal Household, located in the 'Fjord Glimmer' tavern on the shores of Bergen. Listen, you are surrounded by the army. Customers and staff inside, please remain absolutely silent and do not disturb the negotiations between the Wallfacers and the Trisolaran civilization, or you will be sinners against humanity."

The scarred man, skeptical of the danger, cautiously walked to the door, gently pushed it open, and tried to slip away, only to be shocked to see the NATO army that had surrounded the area at some unknown time.

And the countless red laser dots that appeared above his head.

'grunt'

He swallowed hard, silently closed the door, and quietly moved back to his seat.

Luo Qing: "Okay, we can negotiate. Tell me your terms."

Hypatia/Tomoko:
Our conditions are as follows: First, the Trisolaran First Fleet must immediately deviate from its course, and its subsequent crossing of the Oort Cloud will be postponed. Approximately four years later, humanity's second Hubble Telescope will be able to observe the change in the Trisolaran First Fleet's trajectory.

Second, withdraw three sophons to Jupiter's orbit. The three sophons will briefly deploy in a low-dimensional space above Jupiter's "eye of the storm" at 3 PM tomorrow (Eastern Time Zone 8). This can be confirmed by current human observation methods.

"Third: We will relinquish all further scientific and technological support to the ETO organization. This can be confirmed by your human informants within the ETO organization, but the scientific and technological support already provided cannot be taken back."

Luo Qing: "Your demands."

Hypatia/Zhizi: "You need to give up trying to break down the barriers between you and Luo Ji. You are not allowed to communicate with Luo Ji in any abnormal way, including through hints, metaphors, allusions, metaphors, symbolism, insinuations, satire, puns, double entendres, indirect attacks, veiled criticisms, implied meanings, allusions to the past, or anything else that is meant to be said. We will have the ETO assemble a professional analysis team to assist us in monitoring your conversations. Every meaning in your words will be effectively analyzed."

This series of rhetorical devices must have been guided by some charlatan from ETO.

Damn it, these guys are cunning.

However, on the other hand, the Trisolarans' conditions were quite generous, making them very difficult to refuse.

In particular, the fact that the Trisolaran First Fleet has temporarily suspended its entry into the Oort Cloud is of great significance to humanity and will also relieve some of the pressure on Luo Qing.

After all, everyone else will die, and it won't matter, but as a Nascent Soul cultivator, he can truly live for four hundred years. Compared to the first negotiation, the Trisolarans' sincerity this time is clearly much greater.

The withdrawal of the three sophons also gave humanity a glimmer of hope in breaking the technological blockade.

All Luo Qing needs to do is avoid breaking through Luo Ji's barrier, a price that most people consider negligible.

Luo Qing added, “I have one additional condition: I am not allowed to allow other sophons to monitor me in real time.”

Hypatia/Chiko: "Yes, aside from your conversation with Luo Ji, Chiko will only retain real-time observations in special circumstances."

Zhi Zi agreed much faster than Luo Qing had expected.

"Then it's a pleasure to cooperate." Luo Qing smiled and extended his hand.

Hypatia/Chiko: "You must also swear that you will never have any communication with Luo Ji regarding the Wall-Facing Breakthrough."

Luo Qing was taken aback and asked, "An oath? Where did you learn that?"

Hypatia/Tomoko: "In the movies you've directed..."

Luo Qing's nascent soul clenched its fist.

"I agree." Luo Qing nodded.

Hypatia/Tomoko: "Please swear an oath."

Luo Qing said helplessly, "I swear that after today, I will never have any communication with the Wallfacer Luo Ji, and I will not give any hints."

Although there is no Heavenly Dao in this world, Luo Qing really couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart. It can be said that the Trisolarans' request hit a nerve with him.

Hypatia/Chiko: "It's also impossible to use telepathy."

Luo Qing was suddenly startled.

Hypatia/Sophon: 'This is the answer you, the Wallbreaker, have drawn up based on your performance at the United Nations General Assembly and your cultivation movies. This should be your main means of communication to evade Sophon's surveillance. Please swear an oath.'

Luo Qing is now so angry he wants to kill Evans.

Luo Qing had no choice but to add a clause to his oath that he would not use telepathy.

No problem, he also has some tricks up his sleeve for entering dreams and hypnotizing people.

Hypatia/Chiko: "Pleasant collaboration, Wallfacer Luo Qing"

Hypatia, representing the Trisolaran civilization, shook hands with Luo Qing, whose expression was somewhat unnatural.

Both sides knew that this rudimentary negotiation agreement had many loopholes that could be exploited, but it didn't matter, as both the Trisolarans and Luo Qing believed they had achieved their strategic goals for this stage.

A seemingly win-win-win situation has emerged, where Luo Qing, humans, and the Trisolarans have all compromised.

After the talks ended, Luo Qing pushed open the door, looked at the bright sunshine on the horizon and the NATO troops standing ready for battle, and smiled helplessly.

"Go back now. The matter has been resolved. PDC should be able to compile a joint announcement from Earth civilization and Trisolaran civilization later."

A NATO officer walked up to Luo Qing and asked in a respectful tone.

"Mr. Wallfacer, should we arrest ETO member Hypatia?"

Hypatia stood behind Luo Qing, holding Luo Zhenxing in her arms, her expression unchanged as she faced the sky full of armed helicopters and armored vehicles.

Luo Qing shook his head: "Dropping all charges against Hypatia is part of the plan."

The army, which had been shrouded in dark clouds, quickly dispersed like a gentle breeze. Not wanting to leave empty-handed, the army made sure to capture the few drunkards who were addicted to marijuana and hand them over to the local police station before their withdrawal.

Looking at the deserted town, now empty of birds and trees, Luo Qing glanced at Hypatia, who was holding a child.

"Come on, come with me to Eden. I'll take you to see the person you've been monitoring for years."

The girl's previous fearless expression vanished, and she asked timidly, "You... what you said before still stands, right?"

"Don't worry, as I said, making you a mother is also part of the plan. You can be anyone's mother if you want."
