Xiao Ran had been to the Bister family's manor many times before, so he found the place with ease. However, in Xiao Ran's memory, the Bister manor was still bustling with life even in the colonial satellite. The trees and flowers in the garden were quite lush, and there were many servants taking care of the plants in the courtyard every day. There were also many guards outside to ensure the safety of the Bister family.
However, the Bister Clan in front of him was desolation and silence. There wasn't the slightest bit of human activity. There wasn't even a single servant or guard to be seen. Even a petty thief could easily enter and exit from this place.
The Bister family of two different worlds had the same people and the same place, but they were completely different.
After shaking his head, Xiao Ran, who was standing outside the Bister family's door, pressed the doorbell. After pressing it a few times, he waited for a while before a voice sounded.
"Who is it?"
Xiao Ran recognized the voice, and then said his name with a faint smile. However, other than his name, he did not mention anything else. "Xiao Ran."
After all, this was another world. It was hard to say how the identity given by Prometheus was related to Katyas, so he could only further confirm through subsequent contact.
"Xiao Ran … Xiao Ran … It's you. Why are you here? No, why did you suddenly appear? "
Xiao Ran said, "Katyas, I'm already here. Are you not going to let me in? Don't you want to know why I'm here? "
Katyas was silent for a moment. "Please come in."
The door opened silently. Xiao Ran brought Yao in and walked in. They walked all the way to the similarly calm living room. Then, they saw Katyas, who was dressed in a well-ironed suit with his hands behind his back.
Katyas did not have much expression on his face. When he looked at Xiao Ran, his eyes were guarded and not close. From this, it could be seen that the relationship between the Katyas of this world and Xiao Ran's current identity was not that good.
After Xiao Ran approached, Katyas did not invite Xiao Ran to sit down. Instead, he asked directly, "Why are you here?"
Xiao Ran smiled and sat on the sofa in the living room without minding. Yao stood behind Xiao Ran like a guard.
"The Laplace's Box is with me."
Katyas's pupils contracted instantly, and his body became stiff. Xiao Ran said, "This thing was not something you were willing to take out a few years ago. Now, even Guyon is almost gone, and you chose to take it out. Do you think the original constitution can change anything in this era? The colonies have lost the courage to go against the Federation. What you're going to do now is just drawing water with a sieve. "
"What's more, what you want to do has been leaked from the beginning. There is no chance of success from the beginning. The Federation's troops are waiting outside, ready to catch you all in one fell swoop. You decided to gamble with the Bister family, but are the people of this family on the same side as you?"
Katyas's face froze. He walked up to Xiao Ran and asked anxiously, "What else do you know?!"
Xiao Ran glanced at Katyas indifferently. "I know that your son betrayed you because he was dissatisfied with your choice, and your sister betrayed you in order to protect her position and power. Your youngest son is a little muddlehead who doesn't know anything. I would like to ask you, is this really okay? After all, I'm also a major shareholder of Anaheim. You're prepared to put Anaheim in this gamble. Have you considered my opinion? And you're entrusting your future to a little guy who doesn't know anything? "
"Strictly speaking, that RX-O does not completely belong to your Bister family. It is an asset of Anaheim. You are prepared to give that body to your son just because your son is a Homo Evolutis? What can a mere Homo Evolutis do that can destroy the entire Federation? Can a single body dominate the world? "
"Or do you think those people in the Federation have mental problems? They can't even beat a little kid? Katyas, how can you see the situation so simply? I really find it hard to believe that the person who made this kind of decision is you, Katyas. It is even harder to believe that you did not make more preparations before making this kind of decision. Furthermore, you were betrayed by your own son and sister. Is there something wrong with your brain because of your old age? "
Katyas's face had completely changed. Xiao Ran's few words had hit the nail on the head. It made Katyas panic. He forced himself to calm down.
"Don't be so nervous. Sit down. If I really came here with hostility, why would I come here personally to meet you? The Laplace's Box is in my hands, and that RX-O can be replicated. Your most valuable thing is either in my hands, or I don't care. What else do you have that is worth me coveting?"
Katyas nodded and slowly sat down in front of Xiao Ran. "Then what do you want, and what do you want to do?"
Xiao Ran crossed his legs and leaned back slightly with a smile. "I want to take charge of Anaheim, but I feel that my influence in Anaheim is not enough. So I need you to help me, and then use your influence to become the number one person in Anaheim."
"Originally, the Federation's secret forces were prepared to make RX-0 disappear with you, but I can protect you and your son from any threats from the Federation. I will not let your son become a tool of the Federation. This is my bargaining chip. You can consider it."
Katyas lowered his head and pondered in silence for a moment. Then he looked at Xiao Ran and asked, "What are you going to do with the Laplace's Box?"
Xiao Ran said lazily, "That thing is a bomb. When and where to detonate it is very particular. Casually giving it to the remnants of Guyon will not achieve the effect you want to see. You want to give it to the remnants of Guyon and let them make it public, but what can the current Guyon do? I also want to make that thing public, but when to make it public is up to me."
"The Federation is already too powerful and corrupt. The people in the colonies are also suffering too much. I want to create a new world, a world where both the humans on Earth and the inhabitants of the universe are completely equal. I want to let the new humans become the true leaders who can decide the future of mankind. I want the Federation to disintegrate, and I want there to be no more independent forces in the universe. Then, a new era will begin."
"Because of this original constitution, it doesn't matter if the remnants of Guyon want to cooperate with me or not. The ones who will become the leaders will never be them. As for the Federation, they have to clean their eyes and see who needs to be eliminated and who can be roped in. For this reason, Anaheim's influence and platform on the Federation is something I must have."
Katyas looked deeply at Xiao Ran. "You said that what I do is like drawing water with a sieve, but what makes you think you can do it?"
"Power, intelligence." Xiao Ran smiled slightly and said, "The original constitution will only be effective when it falls into the hands of the party with power. The power I have is far beyond what you can imagine, and intelligence will always allow me to be one step ahead of others. It will also allow me to make all the arrangements in advance and lead everyone in the direction I want them to go."
"Lastly, I need to tell you one more thing. The Earth circle may be in chaos soon. The Federation and Guyon's remnants have found a group of powerful pilots to join them. The ability of these pilots may be the existence of one man against an army. Throwing out the original constitution now will only become the fuse that will lead both sides to war. But if it is released at the right time, it will become the gateway to the development of a new era."
Katyas was a little anxious at this moment. He did not believe what Xiao Ran said now, but the original constitution was indeed something that many people in the Federation knew about. It was also the biggest reliance of Anaheim and the Bister family to reach their current level. But where Laplace's Box was, and what was inside, only a few people in the Bister family knew.
When Xiao Ran mentioned Laplace's Box and pointed out that it contained the original constitution, Katyas believed that it had indeed fallen into Xiao Ran's hands. Otherwise, no one would say the words Laplace's Box and link it with the original constitution. But Xiao Ran said that he wanted to overthrow the current Federation and create a new world. This kind of grand dream made Katyas feel like he was dreaming. It was a little too dreamy.
At this time, Katyas was hesitating between believing and not believing. For a moment, he did not know how to respond to Xiao Ran's words.
Xiao Ran saw Katyas' doubt and hesitation. He smiled and said, "Hard to make a decision?"
"That's right, I don't know if I should believe your words. Your arrival is also very sudden, and the Laplace's Box has already fallen into your hands. You already have the initiative in this game, but at the same time, it will also attract the attention of all parties to you. At that time, what difference will there be between you and the current me?"
"The appearance of the original constitution will open up the gradually closed Earth circle. Although it may cause more chaos, now is the last chance."
Xiao Ran nodded and smiled gently. "Only you know this. If you don't say it, who will know this? Even if they know, what does it mean? Anaheim has always been a neutral arms dealer. In the beginning, the Federation needed stability, so they accepted your threats and supported you. When Guyon was strong, the Federation could not afford to offend Anaheim, let alone force you to become enemies. "
"But now that the biggest threat to the Federation is gone, what does the original constitution mean? They can just say that it's a fake, can't they? And now, Anaheim is not that important to the Federation. The only difference is when they will make their move. It doesn't matter if they keep you, it doesn't matter if they don't keep you. The key is whether the Bister family is obedient or not. Now that you have disobeyed them, the other side is angry. They have already sent a secret force to completely wipe out the Bister family, the root of their serious crimes. "
"So, the original constitution still needs to fall into the hands of someone with real strength. For example, in my hands. So what if the Federation or Guyon knows about it? They still have to obediently accept my threats and listen to my orders. If I rebuild Anaheim, they won't dare to provoke us."
"The difference between us is the strength I just mentioned. I have the strength, but you don't."
Katyas shook his head. "No matter what kind of strength you have, unless you can unite the entire universe's colonies, it is impossible to defeat the current Federation. This is the function of the original constitution. It can let the universe's inhabitants truly unite and let the Federation reflect on itself. This way, because of the original constitution, the universe's inhabitants can live a better life."
Xiao Ran smiled but did not continue the conversation. This Katyas was too naïve. Even if the powerless space colonies could unite, they would still be slapped to death by the Federation. Did he really think that the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam with transformative abilities could reverse the situation? The Banerjee of this world was just a little brat who was about to be blinded by love and was about to be NTRed.
The partner that Katyas chose to cooperate with was even more of a pit. The princess did not want to continue the war at all. Even as the princess of the new Guyon, she had no intention of recreating the glory of the new Guyon. The remnants of Guyon's faction were not united now, so it was interesting that Katyas still wanted to hand the original constitution to these people.
Xiao Ran gently raised his head and asked, "Let's not talk about other things. Do you want to cooperate? I can help you, but you have to help me. Even if it is for your two sons, the younger one will not be used by the Federation, and the older one will not be dealt with by me. You know that the ones in charge of Anaheim now are your sister and your son. If you don't cooperate with me, then I will definitely get rid of these two people."
Katyas looked deeply into Xiao Ran's eyes. "I will watch you, but I also have my own insistence."
Xiao Ran understood the subtext of Katyas' words. It was not a cooperation, but he would help Xiao Ran control Anaheim. He would use his own eyes to see what Xiao Ran was going to do next. If Xiao Ran's next move was completely different from the goal that he wanted to achieve, then he would not hesitate to betray him.
"You won't have the chance to leave." Xiao Ran smiled and said, "So now can you tell me when the person who will make the deal with you will be here?"
Katyas stood up. "He is already on his way. He is expected to arrive before the start of the next work hour. There will be a test of the RX-0 in a while. Are you interested in seeing it for yourself?"
"A test?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "I am very interested in personally testing that body. Maybe you also want to see what power I am talking about."
