Chapter Twenty-Seven: Father
The corridor of the city hospital was full of the smell of doctors and patients and disinfectant water coming and going, Chu Lingan sat quietly on the chair, looking up at the tall and majestic man in front of him, his thoughts had drifted away unconsciously.
For Chu Ling, the memory of living in City B is already a little blurry, and in retrospect, the only thing he remembers most clearly is his mother's smile.
He never saw his father in his memory, and his mother never told him anything about him, except that he would see the man's picture in her hands more than once when his mother was drunk.
He has called the name Chu Ling for six years, and to be honest, he doesn't like it very much. His mother didn't have the surname Chu, but he gave him his surname, so he couldn't even get a hukou in City B, and he couldn't go to school. There is also the word "Ling", he has always felt like a little girl called, so he didn't like to agree when his mother called him Xiao Ling Xiaoling all day long, and he was scolded by his mother for it.
But this name brought him only a small regret after all, compared with Liu Xiaosan'er, it still sounds a lot better. Just like his childhood life in City B, although there are shortcomings, he is always happy, and compared to now, it is like being in heaven.
After coming to Liu's house, his mother asked him to call Liu Gang his father, and he did, although Liu Gang slapped him for his second of hesitation.
Since then, beatings and abuse, lack of food and clothing, and heavy manual labor have become the norm of life. The mother's spirit became more and more trance-like, and she could no longer show a smile on her face, and she also put the man's photo at the bottom of the box.
Since entering the training camp, Chu Ling has been holding back a lot of energy in his heart, he has gone all out for every training, hoping to enter the reserve candidate list as he wishes, after all, this is the only way for him to save himself and his mother.
When the man broke into the door and pressed Liu Gang against the wall, Chu Ling seemed to see his mother's smiling face in a trance. The man in the photo is standing alive in front of him at this moment. He looked so majestic that even an officer like the head of the special operations regiment was respectful to him, calling out "Team Leader Chu" one by one. By the way, Team Leader Chu, the strange surname that his mother has been insisting on out of thin air came from him, ......right? Is he here to save himself?
It wasn't until Chu Jian said the cold "let him go home" that Chu Ling was completely stupid. It turned out that he had come to dismiss himself.
Thinking about it, if he came for himself, he still had to wait until today? The sadness caused by disappointed expectations didn't last long, anyway, his expectations had been disappointed too many times, and he had long been used to it. But because of Team Leader Chu's words, he lost his precious opportunity again, and there was no reason to talk about it, which made Chu Ling feel uncomfortable and even more unwilling. Even if Chu Jian didn't know about his existence, he didn't expect anything to intersect with Chu Jian's life, but he wanted to let his mother live a good life with his own strength, so he had to fight for himself and his mother once.
But what's worse is that the strong sense of oppression on this team leader Chu Ling made Chu Ling feel frightened unconsciously, so much so that he couldn't say a word after typing a full draft now.
"Su Huanchuan is coming over later, you stay in the ward and don't come out. Chu Jian obviously didn't know what Chu Ling was thinking, and instructed absentmindedly.
"Chu ...... Team Leader Chu ...... "Chu Ling knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer, and he couldn't take care of it much, so he gritted his teeth and opened his mouth, "I...... I really want to be a peace army, can I ...... Don't fire me ......"
"You can ask your father to negotiate with the person in charge of the camp. Chu Jian waved his hand weakly. He was repeatedly deducing in his heart to wait for all the possible accidents, and he really didn't have time to deal with Chu Ling.
"But he ...... He's not ......" Chu Ling's head lowered unconsciously, and tears quietly dripped down. He bit his lip and tried not to cry.
Father, Chu Ling hates this word. Especially now, it's really, really annoying.
"Comrade Chu, phone!"
"Thank you. Chu Jian hurriedly walked towards the front desk, and casually pushed Chu Ling back to the ward, "Lock the door and don't come out." ”
Chu Ling secretly glanced at Chu Jian again, and then lay down on the bed listlessly, throwing the pillow to the ground hard, obviously resenting Chu Jian's perfunctory attitude just now.
Chu Jian put down the phone, took a deep breath, and returned to the ward at the end of the corridor. He knew that his plan had taken a big risk, this was not a professional source reaction laboratory, although there was equipment brought from City B, but once something happened to Su Huanchuan, he didn't know if he could cope with it with these portable devices alone.
But his instincts told him it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Su Huanchuan is the carrier he has seen who is most likely to produce "sources", and her source response stimulation method is different from that of normal people, if she trains in a normal way, she may really have to live a lifetime of mediocrity. Regarding the method of truly stimulating Su Huanchuanyuan's reaction, although it has not yet been confirmed, Chu Jian already has her own inference in her heart, and the sudden bad news she is about to face is the best catalyst.
Of course, Chu Jian also wanted to be safe, but Su Huanchuan's mother was seriously injured, and now she can't bear the fatigue of transferring to the hospital back to City B, and the longer it drags on, the less strong stimulation Su Huanchuan will receive, and when the time comes, he will miss the best source reaction state, and he may never find the next opportunity to stimulate her source reaction. It is not easy to meet a carrier with such a high probability of source output, if it is so wasted, it will be a great loss to the domestic scientific research community. Seeking wealth and danger, Chu Jian decided to take this risk. He had already evacuated the rest of the patients on this level ahead of schedule, and he was determined to succeed in this special breakthrough activation training.
"Relax, don't be so nervous. Yan Zhi saw that Chu Jian's face was heavy, and patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "According to the test results of the previous two days, although this girl has a high talent, after all, she has just generated a source reaction, and it is completely within the range of what you can handle." Don't blame yourself for this matter, her parents had a car accident, she will know sooner or later, let's carry this thunder for her family, they have to thank us. ”
"Hmm......" Chu Jian frowned, and walked out of the ward uneasily, "Wait a while, you stay away, the situation is not right, hurry up." ”
