The ambassador smiled encouragingly . "It's okay, you can name anything you want . "
"I have nothing to ask," Sam said smartly . "The only reason I went to the moon was to protect my friend, I did say I wanted nothing more than that . "
The ambassador smiled . "Mr . Sam's modesty is mighty impressive . No matter, when you think of a reward in the future, do not hesitate to tell us . What about Mr . Xi and Miss Xia, is there anything you wish for?"
Xinghe shared a look with Mubai, and she shook her head . "We don't need anything, I just wish to know what will happen to them . "
The ambassador visibly hesitated . Xinghe saw this and knew something was wrong . She stressed, "The only thing I wish to get in return is to know what the United Nations plan to do with the people from the moon . I want to hear the truth . "
AdvertisementThe ambassadors looked at each other and started discussing on their own . "Fine, you deserve to know the truth . After several days of discussion, United Nations plan to not do anything with them . "
"Not do anything?" Xinghe was confused . "You wish for them to survive on their own? That works, we will be responsible for their basic needs . "
"Miss Xia, you misunderstood us," the eldest ambassador said . "We will not do anything to them, but we will not let them survive on their own either . "
"What do you mean by that?" Sam blurted out his question . Xinghe and Mubai's expression turned severe . The earlier merry mood also turned solemn .
The ambassadors chose to come clean . "It means we will limit their freedom and will care for them for life . But we will not arrange work for them because they will not be a part of human society . "
"Why not?" Sam was curious . "They too are human beings, so why can't they be a part of human society? You people really think they are aliens? They are humans, humans like you and me . "
"We know, but they are not normal humans; they are humans who once planned to destroy the Earth . "
"But He Lan Yuan is the real mastermind behind that . It was not their intention . They have switched sides by helping us take down He Lan Yuan . "
"Therefore, we chose to not harm them and allow them a peaceful life . It is impossible for us to pretend nothing ever happened and let them live a normal life . We have to put the safety of humanity first," the eldest ambassador stressed; what they said was logical .
Xinghe's group remained silent after that .
The ambassador consoled them, "I know you feel this arrangement is unfair, but we cannot trust them implicitly . No one can tell whether there are still some of He Lan Yuan's followers among them . We cannot allow these ticking time bombs to live among humans, no one can shoulder that responsibility . Therefore, we have decided to quarantine them, that is the best solution . "
"What is the concrete plan for them?" Xinghe asked softly in a level tone .
The ambassador answered, "The United Nations will build an island for them and quarantine them there . There will be guards who watch over them, but they are allowed freedom to wander the island, and their basic needs will be taken care of . As long as they do not leave the small island and create no issues, their lives will be fine . "
Another ambassador chimed in, "That is the best ending we can give them . "
