Chapter 32: I hate banana people more than anything in my life!

Inside the meeting room, there were over fifty people.

At the central seat sat several foreigners in suits, looking neat and proper.

The leader, a fat-faced man who looked somewhat dull and stupid, had eyes that flashed with sharpness.

His hair was short, his ears large; at this moment he looked angry and embarrassed.

Beside them sat a young man with Eastern features, also in a suit, but with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, clearly not a good sort; at this moment he had even stood up, looking fierce and aggressive.

Across from them, President Liu smiled apologetically: "Translator Pan, Comrade Qin Miao has gone to class; we've already sent someone to call him…"

"Is attending class important, or apologizing to Dr. Bu'er important? You at Ha Gong Da, how can you not distinguish priorities?"

"We at Ha Gong Da are a place to educate students; of course attending class is important!"

Pan Muyang turned his head, looking at the speaker: "Who are you?"

"Who I am doesn't matter; who are you?"

"I? I'm from the Capital Foreign Affairs Department, specially assigned to serve as translator for Dr. Bu'er and the others!"

"An Easterner?"

"Yes."

"Looking at your aggressive appearance, I thought you were a dog beside Dr. Bu'er! Does your barking get you an extra piece of meat from your master?"

"You! President Liu, is this Ha Gong Da's attitude?"

President Liu hurried to smooth things over: "Come, let me introduce you—this is Comrade Qin Miao."

"You're Qin Miao? Come, quickly apologize to Dr. Bu'er!"

Qin Miao glanced at him with the corner of his eye: "As expected, a banana person is a banana person; tell me, why should I apologize to Dr. Bu'er?"

"You've wasted Dr. Bu'er's time!"

"I was teaching students! You didn't notify us in advance, came here, and demanded I come over, wasting the class time of over fifty students! If anyone should apologize, it's you to me!" Qin Miao said: "It's just a few foreigners—what's the big deal? Are foreigners superior? Must we kneel and lick their feet? What benefit do you get from such fawning?"

Smack!

Pan Muyang slapped the table, startling the several foreigners nearby.

"Sorry, honored guests." Pan Muyang respectfully and carefully apologized to the several foreigners, then turned, revealing a fierce expression again: "Qin Miao, hear me—apologize, immediately, right now! Otherwise there will be serious consequences you cannot bear!"

"Pan, what on earth are you doing?" Dr. Bu'er shouted.

"Dr. Bu'er, that person opposite is Qin Miao; I'm trying to make him apologize to you!"

As soon as Pan Muyang finished speaking, Qin Miao muttered in fluent English: "I'm not wrong; I cannot apologize to you. If you came here to show off, you can leave now—Ha Gong Da doesn't welcome you. If you came to seek instruction, then please adopt a humble attitude."

"Qin Miao, how dare you be rude to our foreign friends? Diplomacy is no small matter! President Liu, Ha Gong Da must give us foreigners an explanation for this!"

President Liu's face darkened: "Comrade Qin Miao hasn't done anything wrong, Translator Pan; we will faithfully report your actions today to the relevant superior departments—you're just borrowing the tiger's might, putting on airs!"

"Ha Gong Da, when have we ever been afraid? Foreigners? Look at Ha Gong Da's history—our university has never lacked foreigners!"

"Pan, don't say another word!" Dr. Bu'er spoke again: "Now we can communicate directly with Qin Miao!"

That young man opposite understands English and speaks it fluently; in that case, Translator Pan Muyang's value is hardly significant!

"Since he's useless now, let him get out!" Qin Miao continued speaking English to Dr. Bu'er opposite: "His presence makes me sick!"

"You!"

"Pan, you may leave!"

Pan Muyang was stunned—the respected foreign dignitary actually wanted him to leave!

"Dr. Bu'er, I'm a translator sent by my superiors; I need to stay by your side to handle translation work."

"Translator? Do you even understand?" Qin Miao gave him a sideways glance: "Come, translate this: modern gun barrel material uses electroslag remelting technology, the body tube employs self-tightening process, mainly carbon-nickel-chromium-platinum alloy steel."

Pan Muyang stared blankly—what about the Foreign Affairs Department translator? He's a liberal arts student; he's never studied these things!

"Come, translate again: the rifling inside the barrel is divided into negative and positive rifling; when cutting the rifling, the tool advances parallel to the barrel axis, while the barrel rotates around the axis."

"Still can't? Then say this: saw-cutting the blank, overall heat treatment, three-stage pressing."

Pan Muyang's face turned red from holding his breath.

"Enough, Pan—there's nothing for you here now; you may leave."

Pan Muyang glared at Qin Miao with clenched teeth, then turned and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Qin Miao called him back, then glanced at his watch: "Just now, because of you, we lost another five minutes! So now you must apologize to everyone present—immediately, right away!"

Everyone present felt a surge of emotion—indeed, young people are the best, unafraid of life and death, ready to fight if dissatisfied! Earlier, everyone disliked this translator, had to hold back, wanting to make a big issue small; now Qin Miao's straightforward handling feels satisfying! Great!

"What? You refuse?" Qin Miao looked at Dr. Bu'er opposite and continued: "Dr. Bu'er, this translator has wasted our precious time; now he must apologize to us before he can leave—if he doesn't, we'll end this meeting right here!"

"Pan, why won't you apologize?"

Thump!

This guy actually knelt—just obeying foreigners like that? Is he trying to cling to Dr. Bu'er's thigh to get abroad? Humph, when Dr. Bu'er gets blown away, you kid can go along and be buried with him!

Banana people, all deserve to die!

In peacetime, these guys constantly promote how great foreign countries are, duping more people into admiring foreign things and becoming banana people; in wartime, they're traitors who readily betray the nation and the people, guiding invaders.

As for their fate… hum, banana people never meet a good end! Though my abilities are limited and I can't wipe out all banana people, whenever I encounter one I'll make sure he suffers.

"Sorry, I'm wrong!"

"Speak in Chinese! You owe an apology to us Chinese! You may kneel if you want, but don't think others need to join you in kowtowing to foreigners! You owe an apology to your own parents! When you die, you won't even have the face to enter your ancestors' graves!"
