Because of the confrontation just now, the entire wilderness looked full of potholes, and several layers of roads had been lifted away.
Judging from the road conditions and traces, it really looks like the traces left behind by the battle between two high-tech and high-power troops.
It's just that it's hard for anyone to imagine that this place was actually ravaged by two warring troops.
It's just that one of the parties has only one ability user codenamed "Single Soldier".
Of course, code names are code names, and it should be reasonable for one person to represent an army, right?
For example, Gecko Deputy Captain naturally accepted the setting of the Lu Xin family.
Not only did he drive the truck smoothly on the bumpy road, but he also chatted and laughed with Lu Xin's family.
The atmosphere was unusually harmonious.
They were so harmonious that while he was chatting very passionately with his invisible family members, he drove the truck to the old building of Lu Xin's house without changing his expression or heartbeat. When he was about to leave, his family members were a little reluctant to leave and wanted to invite him to sit upstairs.
However, Gecko took Troublemaker Kid away on the grounds that he would not disturb Lu Xin's family's rest.
"Go slowly..."
Lu Xin's family stood in front of the old building, watching Gecko's figure disappear behind the corner.
"Huh..."
Gecko, who had just turned the corner, took a deep breath and almost collapsed on the ground.
"Brother Tiger, what's wrong with you?"
Troublemaker Kid looked at Gecko with admiration and helped him up diligently.
"It's so scary..."
Gecko patted his chest lightly, his face turned gray, and said, "The captain's strength is getting more and more terrifying. I used to sit in a car with him, and I always felt that there were actually several people in the car. Some people were looking at you with smiles, as if they were calculating what kind of cannon fodder you could be. Some people would be unhappy with you, always thinking about cutting you into several pieces. The most egregious thing is that some people want to use you as a toy..."
"Can you understand the feeling of wanting to escape at any time even though you are sitting in the car?"
"..."
Troublemaker Kid felt the state he was in when he was sitting in the car pocket just now, and it was difficult to empathize with it.
Curious: "What now?"
"It's much better now..."
Gecko said, "I now know that I can't escape."
"After accepting my fate, I feel much more calm..."
Troublemaker Kid looked at it carefully. Although he didn't understand it, he was greatly shocked.
"Brother Hu, you are so amazing. No wonder everyone in the Special Purity Department is saying that the most important position in Qinggang is Professor Bai, the Special Pollution Cleanup Department chief, Minister Shen, the City Defense Department minister, and the third is Deputy Captain, the single-soldier team."
"..."
"Okay, okay..."
Gecko waved his hands reservedly and said, "Every job needs someone to do it."
"Besides, after working hard for so long, I will soon become a sixth-level special talent in Qinggang..."
As he spoke, a smile couldn't help but creep onto his face, "Linda is finally going to marry me..."
"..."
"I will be promoted to level three immediately, so I don't need to go to class anymore?"
Troublemaker Kid also looked surprised.
"More than that?"
Gecko patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "After this mission, you can be directly promoted to level four, and you can even become the principal..."
"Brother Hu, you are awesome..."
"Don't worry, you can do it if you have a good time in our individual team..."
"..."
The more the two chatted, the happier they became. Under Crimson Moon, they happily high-fived and celebrated.
But neither of them knew that there was actually a little monster with several tentacles growing beside them.
Gecko and Troublemaker Kid celebrated happily, and it was also very happy, waving its tentacles and dancing.
But when Gecko and Troublemaker Kid began to excitedly discuss how they were going to take the credit this time, the little monster suddenly realized something. He stood blankly for a while, and the tentacles he waved hung down feebly, feeling frustrated and aggrieved.
"Next time, I must be more enthusiastic and let him come and sit at home..."
When Lu Xin and his family walked into the old building, they were still laughing and discussing, expressing their satisfaction with Gecko.
However, after entering the old building, the smile on Lu Xin's face slowly disappeared and he silently looked back.
Outside the old building, Crimson Moon still hangs over the city. The street lights on the streets are dim, and the tall and short buildings around are mostly without lights. The world is still quiet and lonely, but it seems to have a more mysterious and dangerous atmosphere than before.
"The feeling of completing the task this time is somewhat different from the previous one..."
Lu Xin stopped and stood in the corridor on the first floor. He was silent for a while and then said lightly.
"Is it because of those prying eyes, or because of Sword Bearer's death?"
Mom seemed to understand his mood very well. After gently walking into the old building, he slowly turned around and asked softly.
"They are all there..."
Lu Xin thought about it seriously and said softly, "Sword Bearer's death and the prying eyes seem to be two different things, but they are somehow connected. And what makes me feel most uncomfortable is that I always feel that in this process, some secrets that I have forgotten have been looked at by those eyes. Secrets that I don't even understand have been stolen by others..."
The atmosphere in the old building became slightly depressing.
From judging oneself, to reconciling oneself, to destroying Sword Bearer, it attracted the attention of the throne...
Lu Xin I feel like my secret is being seen through.
The most annoying thing is that even I don't understand these secrets very well.
But just now, in the wilderness, outside, I couldn't even discuss these issues with my family.
Only by returning to the old building can we ensure that we can talk about these issues without being spied on.
"It definitely feels that way."
Mom nodded slightly and said with a smile, "But don't worry, they are hiding in the dark, which means they are afraid."
"And since we can detect it in advance, we can naturally make some arrangements."
"..."
Lu Xin nodded and said with a smile, "What is your next plan?"
"Get ready to visit my good sister at home."
Mom smiled and said, "Of course, when relatives meet, comparisons are inevitable."
"So we have to prepare a few more things. It's not good to go empty-handed..."
"..."
Lu Xin listened silently, then smiled and nodded.
He likes the feeling of reaching cooperation with Mom just by making eye contact.
"What about you?"
Seeing that Lu Xin had no intention of going upstairs, Mom also asked curiously.
"I decided to retrieve the memories of the previous three years."
Lu Xin smiled and said, "This time, it should be Old Director's trial, right?"
"I'm a little curious as to why he didn't send another transcript after this trial."
"However, just like what he usually does, he always gives me some rewards at the end of every trial, and this time is no exception. When I judged myself, I went back to my past memories, and I did see some shadows that I had not noticed before."
"So, I think I should try to get my lost memories back."
"Be careful."
Mom nodded with a smile and walked slowly upstairs.
Lu Xin also heaved a sigh of relief, walked out of the old building again, boarded the truck, and drove slowly towards the orphanage.
Some things should be settled, and some things should be clarified.
"Lu Xin, are you okay?"
The truck had just driven into Crimson Moon Elementary School, and before it could stop the truck exactly at the wall, Teacher Lu came out to greet it.
There was concern and nervousness on her face, and she felt relieved when she saw Lu Xin get out of the car.
Under the light of Crimson Moon, her expression looks a little mysterious, but if you look closely, you can see that her face is full of sunshine.
This look is very similar to Lu Xin's memory of how they looked when they met three years later.
Strong, passionate, and cheerful.
However, Lu Xin understands what her current mental state is.
After all, the spirit of her and the entire Qinggang people today is like this.
The power of King Fantasy Nation makes the entire Satellite City No. 2 now kind and gentle.
However, this mental state will soon disappear and return to its original state.
Teacher Lu is no exception.
At this moment, she couldn't remember the guilt she felt all her life because of the child's bravery when she was in the orphanage.
I only know that No. 8 came to Qinggang and caused a terrible pollution. Then Lu Xin went to the outside of the city alone to protect himself and the children in the orphanage. Now he has just solved the terrible monster and rushed back from the wilderness...
She will slowly remember the past and the details of this incident.
Maybe guilt would still arise in her heart, but this time the pollution was still avoided.
Powerful guilt will envelope a person's heart, as will other emotions.
When this kind of emotion is strong, it can even cause people to do terrible things.
But as long as you survive this moment first, even if you are affected in the future, it won't be so serious.
"I'm fine..."
Lu Xin is as polite as before to Teacher Lu.
While answering to reassure Teacher Lu, he raised his head and cast his gaze on No. 8 on the steps of the teaching building. Most of No. 8's body was hidden in the darkness inside the teaching building, but he could feel some depression and confusion from his body.
"You're hungry, do you want to go out and have something to eat with me?"
Lu Xin looked at No. 8, paused, and then looked to another place. "You go too."
"Me?"
Facing Lu Xin's gaze, behind a window on the east side of the first floor of the teaching building, the old security guard holding a shotgun was slightly surprised.
Behind the glass window under the night light, a flash of fear seemed to flash in his surprised eyes.
"Yes."
Lu Xin smiled at him and said, "There are some things that we should talk about."
The old security guard was silent for a while and walked out of the teaching building. He returned to the security booth first and locked up the shotgun.
Then he put on his coat and cap, and followed Lu Xin silently.
Although it could be clearly seen that his body was trembling slightly, his steps towards the outside were still very firm.
Lu Xin just looked at him quietly, then put his hands in his pockets and walked out first.
This night has been very long, but if these problems are not solved, I will never be able to go back to rest peacefully.
At the same time, Qinggang Main City and Kid were still sitting on the roof of the building, holding their chins in their hands and looking in the direction of City No. 2 with a smile.
Waiting for Lu Xin to finish his work and come over to find him.
I recommend the new book "Mirror Authority" by the platinum master Heng Sao Tian Ya. It also has a strange beginning. The quality is very good and it is worth reading.
