"Kid?"

When Lu Xin said this matter of course in a serious tone, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed.

Everyone looked at Lu Xin with a bit of weirdness in their eyes.

As if suddenly becoming speechless.

It's like he's carefully identifying whether Lu Xin is joking.

This look made Lu Xin feel uncomfortable. He subconsciously touched his face and found that his expression had not changed much.

Then he felt relieved and said, "What's wrong?"

"Captain, what you just said was Kid from Qinggang..."

Gecko said quietly, "Because she insisted on running out to find you this time, Qinggang has been completely in chaos."

"When we set off, Old Man Chen was crying with snot and tears. He slapped his grandson who came to him for pocket money and sent him into the office to do his homework. The Big Sisters in the service team insisted on forming a death squad to follow us out. It was difficult to persuade him..."

"It can be said that it was because Qinggang had no other way to keep her except to die with her, so we had to let her join our team and come out to support you. Even so, those old professors repeatedly asked us to have big breasts... Dear Team Leader Chen swore several times to bring her back safely..."

"..."

Lu Xin was a bit stunned by Gecko's seemingly simple words. "Then what?"

"Then if we can bring this Qinggang baby back intact, we will be very happy..."

Gecko said with strange eyes, "In the end, not only did you really regard her as one of your team members..."

"Do you still want her to exert her strongest influence?"

"..."

"This..."

Such a complicated situation made Lu Xin somewhat unable to react.

Isn't Kid also a salaried person?

He didn't know how to answer, so he glanced at Chen Jing subconsciously.

Then he found that Chen Jing also frowned at this time, seeming to be also caught in a cloud of doubts.

Judging from this expression, Chen Jing seems to have shown an expression of agreement with Gecko's opinion for the first time.

Looking at the drunkard again, he saw the old man slowly unscrewing the thermos cup with a thoughtful look on his face.

The one next to him, Troublemaker Kid, was focused on playing the game, but his ears perked up.

"I didn't think too much about it."

Thinking that his proposal was indeed inappropriate, Lu Xin could only explain with a smile, "I just feel that what we are encountering now is such a difficult problem. The other party released mysterious pollution and surrounded Happy Town. If we don't use more direct pollution to lure them away, then we need to infiltrate them first and investigate bit by bit."

"Those people have guns, and they are not in their right mind now. It is very dangerous to come into contact with them..."

"Of course, the most important thing is to waste time."

"Inside Happy Town, Technological Church has been preparing for so long. If we don't go in, I'm afraid..."

"..."

Lu Xin explains it very carefully and makes sense.

But after listening to it, everyone still had an indescribable strange feeling.

Did he really regard Kid as a team member?

"This is the truth..."

Chen Jing saw Lu Xin looking at him, frowned, and slowly said, "Theoretically speaking, Kid seems to be able to solve the current problem very well and save us a lot of money. Time, but the problem is that Kid is the person who cares most about Qinggang. When she is in Qinggang, every move about her needs to be signed by Professor Chen, Professor Bai and at least two gentlemen."

"Now, we haven't continued to test her abilities for nearly three years, and we don't know where her limits are..."

"If she lets go of her suppression, the consequences will be too terrible..."

"..."

Listening to Chen Jing's words, Lu Xin finally understood what their worries were.

"I support Little Soldier's suggestion."

At this moment, the drunkard holding a thermos cup next to him suddenly raised his head and said something seriously.

Chen Jing suddenly looked at her in surprise.

Even Lu Xin and Gecko felt a little surprised, falling on her young and energetic faces.

The girl's expression seemed strangely calm and capable at this time. She slowly turned her head to look at Chen Jing and said softly, "Old Chen, I don't have as much baggage as you. All I want to do is how to solve this problem quickly and go home for dinner. I just thought that since Technological Church is here, he must have figured out the details of Qinggang, or I think I have figured it out."

"They dared to use such large-scale pollution. Maybe they knew that we had no corresponding countermeasures and could only be led by their noses. They even led them into a trap step by step. So I think that at this time..."

"Using Kid's influence is actually a strange move."

"The best way to combat large-scale pollution is to cover it. This truth has been proven many times."

"Besides, the influence of Kid can be controlled to a certain extent, and it can also ensure that those people can recover and become normal people afterwards."

"... Of course, the couple's relationship may be slightly affected!"

"..."

"I admit that Kid's ability is very suitable, but everything about Kid must be carefully considered."

After hearing what the drunkard said, Chen Jing immediately asked, "In our opinion, letting Kid take action is the best way to solve this problem, but have you ever thought about what if Technological Church releases such a large area of pollution just to lure Kid out?"

The drunkard said with a smile, "Before this, could you have thought that Kid would come out?"

Chen Jing is silent.

The drunkard said again, "Before this, are you willing to let Kid take full action?"

Chen Jing was silent again.

The drunkard took a slow sip of wine and said with a smile, "We couldn't even think of it ourselves, how could Technological Church think of it?"

"Besides..."

She slowly screwed on the thermos cup and turned to look at Lu Xin: "Even if Technological Church is prepared, isn't there still Little Soldier here?"

"I believe he can protect Kid."

"..."

Chen Jing took a deep breath and stopped talking.

She waved her hands to everyone, saying that she needed some space to think.

He slowly turned around, walked to the edge of the mountain top, and looked up down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, gunshots were heard from time to time, and armed vehicles filled with people were driving around in the wilderness, full of murderous intent.

Chen Jing slowly lowered his head, and could only see a thin back.

"This..."

Lu Xin did not expect that such a suggestion would make Chen Jing so embarrassed.

He could see that at this time, she should be thinking deeply through various aspects. It was not easy to disturb her. He was just thinking silently in his heart, besides letting Kid take action, was there any other way to solve this problem.

"I've decided."

But before Lu Xin could start thinking, Chen Jing suddenly turned his head and spoke resolutely.

Lu Xin was stunned and subconsciously looked down at the electronic watch: less than twenty seconds had passed.

"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures."

After Chen Jing made the decision, his expression suddenly became very relaxed, but his voice sounded very courageous, and he said, "I have carefully considered it and considered it from many aspects. I feel that whether it is the urgency of our mission, the test of Kid's own ability, or the safety of the armed forces at the gathering point, this is a very worthwhile gamble..."

She paused, changed her statement, and said, "It's my decision to give it a try!"

"Pfft..."

Gecko, who was drinking from a water cup, almost choked. "Team leader, you decided to take a gamble after thinking about it for so long?"

Chen Jing glanced at him coldly. "I made this decision after scientific and in-depth thinking."

Gecko shrank his head and whispered, "Then do you need to report it to your superiors?"

"No need."

Chen Jing said, "After all, time is tight."

Then he added, "And although it is indeed dangerous to do this, I think the chance of winning is still quite high."

Gecko couldn't help but mutter, "It's more like taking a gamble.

This time, Chen Jing, Drunkard, Lu Xin, including Troublemaker Kid, all turned to glare at him.

"I didn't expect that the team leader was hesitant, but once he made the decision, he was more courageous than himself..."

Lu Xin also sighed.

Even he didn't expect that he could make decisions directly without reporting to the headquarters.

However, we must admit that the team leader's decision makes sense. If we really ask the headquarters for instructions, we are more likely to be rejected.

After all, this is Qinggang's Kid.

But no matter what, just agree.

He smiled and glanced at Kid not far away, and said, "So, let's discuss the specific work?"

Chen Jing looked at him deeply, nodded and said, "Okay."

In the eyes of everyone, she suddenly showed a smile that was no longer tense, and said as if she was expecting, "To be honest, I also really want to see how powerful Kid is when he no longer suppresses himself, and I also want to see this kind of large-area influence..."

"What's it like..."

Ten minutes later, Lu Xin and Kid got into the modified car that originally belonged to Technological Church.

He was driving, and Kid sat in the passenger seat.

The two drove out of the mountainous area, along the dilapidated and cracked road, and drove straight in the direction of Happy Town.

Kid didn't know what happened at this time. She just suddenly realized that the person who came out with her was gone, and Lu Xin was the only one left beside her. Thinking about it carefully, this seemed to be the first time she had gotten along with two people since she met Lu Xin.

Slowly, she turned her head to look at Lu Xin, suddenly took off her mask, and laughed.

"As soon as you get the chance, take off your mask immediately..."

Lu Xin thought secretly, "It seems that what the service team said before is good, she really doesn't like the feeling of wearing a mask..."

Then, looking at the armed tents at the gathering point getting closer and closer in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Say to Kid:

"You should have been suppressing yourself intentionally, right? Is it because you are worried that you will accidentally hurt others?"

"It doesn't matter this time. Not only can you take off your mask, but you can also take it off if you don't like it."

"..."

Kid was slightly startled after hearing what Lu Xin said.

Immediately she turned her head and looked at Lu Xin in disbelief, her eyes gradually getting bigger.

"Yes."

Lu Xin looked at her silly look and found it very interesting. He smiled and nodded, confirming what he just said again, and then said, "Because this time we are working and doing business, so you don't have to worry about hurting other people."

"Of course, there's no need to worry about others hurting you."

He turned to look into Kid's eyes and said seriously, "I will protect you here."
