"Unexpectedly, without any heavy weapons, he defeated the newly developed No. 13 mecha!" The middle-aged man's eyes were full of surprise, and the embarrassment on his face tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"This situation has happened quite a few times," Long Ao's voice came from behind everyone, so everyone turned around and saw Long Ao, who was following Andre behind him, slowly walking forward, "Why don't you calculate the time it takes for each new machine to be defeated by my teammates?"

"Hmph," the middle-aged man's face was a little uncontrollable, "let's go." ”

So everyone from the Technology R&D Bureau followed the middle-aged man and turned around and left the training ground.

"It's a great fight, don't send it. Long Ao smiled at the middle-aged man and nodded.

After the people from the Technology R&D Bureau left, Ying Lan suddenly remembered something, and stepped forward to ask Long Ao: "Why don't you question them about the initial machine?"

"First, that 'Mediterranean' is not the highest level of the Technology Research and Development Bureau, but a cadre engaged in mecha research;

"But ......"

"Oh, hey, did you just see my wonderful performance!" the white fox screamed happily as he ran out of the elevator, interrupting Yinglan's attempt to continue arguing.

"The last blow was interrupted by someone from the Technology Research and Development Bureau," Mu Yi stepped forward, "Tell me how you cut off its head? ”

"Cut," the white fox looked arrogant, "Didn't you see that the robot's armor was notched by me with a gun?" The reason why the electromagnetic jammer doesn't work is because the mecha's material is novel and the sealing effect is good, and now that the circuit has been punched out by me, there is no reason not to be interfered with, right?"

"In other words," Gu Lichuan stroked his chin, "didn't you activate that electromagnetic interference meter immediately when you threw it out?"

"Right!" the white fox cheered with great joy.

"Although the white fox has an iron head, it will not be hard after eating deflated. Long Ao walked up to Gu Lichuan and said.

"He's really powerful," Gu Lichuan looked at Long Ao, and lowered his head very embarrassed, "I feel like I've become very small all of a sudden." ”

"When you're new to the city, you just need some time. Long Ao smiled at Gu Lichuan, which made Gu Lichuan feel very comfortable.

"Let's go for a walk, let's have afternoon tea," the white fox walked towards the elevator with Mu Yi and Ying Lan, and turned around and said, "Do you want Gu Lichuan and Andre to come?" Boss, I won't look for you if you're so busy!"

"Okay......" Andre was just about to raise his hand to sign up, but Long Ao coughed lightly behind him.

"Andre, there's a lot of work to be done here. ”

"Uh," Andre smiled wryly at Yinglan, "forget it." ”

So everyone saw Andre slowly follow Long Ao to another elevator leading to the office with a resentful face.

"Gu Lichuan, let's go together. The white fox looked at Gu Lichuan again.

"That, I'd better stay in the base first," Gu Lichuan scratched his head, "There are a lot of things I don't know yet, just while the boss and Andre are there, you can consult." ”

"Alright, let's go. The white fox said, walking towards the elevator.

"There are still a lot of fun things in the base," Mu Yi whispered to Gu Lichuan, "You can go to the shooting range and play with guns." ”

Gu Lichuan nodded, but he didn't know anything about firearms.

"Then let's go," the three of them stood in the elevator and waved to Gu Lichuan, "Bye." ”

"Well, bye-bye. Gu Lichuan smiled and said goodbye to them.

The elevator door slowly closed, Gu Lichuan was still stagnant in the action of waving goodbye, and after a long time, he slowly lowered his arm and restrained his smile, and changed to a sad expression. With a sigh, he turned and walked towards the elevator where Andre had left.

......

Bustling pedestrian street, leisurely afternoon, no busy, no hustle. In the quiet café, White Fox, Ying Lan and Mu Yi sat together, with three cups of coffee and a little cake on the table, and the three of them chatted while watching the pedestrians coming and going outside the window, surrounded by slow music, so comfortable. From time to time, young girls cast their eyes at White Fox and Mu Yi, and similarly, there were boys sitting together quietly discussing Ying Lan who was quietly drinking coffee.

"That golden retriever, I really don't know where he ran to," the white fox stirred his coffee, and held the small spoon used to eat cake in his mouth, "didn't he call me when he ran out alone?"

"Pull it down," Mu Yi rolled his eyes, "Xingchen's kind of person, it doesn't look like he will take the initiative to attack, so don't live in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain here." ”

Ying Lan smiled and looked down at the magazine.

"Not necessarily," the white fox continued to open his mind, "you see that although he has a serious face, his heart may be burning like his hands!" As he spoke, he raised his head and threw a warm smile at a girl who was looking at him, and the girl was stunned, blushing and smiling away.

"At least people won't be like you," Mu Yi looked at the white fox with an indifferent expression, "Dip the flowers and grass and get burned." ”

"I'm here to help these girls thaw their cold hearts. ”

"You'd better be careful not to melt people's hearts. Ying Lan smiled and took a sip of coffee.

"It's you," the white fox turned his gun on Yinglan, "I've never seen you approach anyone on your own initiative." ”

"Love, but not a necessity. Ying Lan responded coldly to the white fox's ridicule.

"No," the white fox said thoughtfully, "there were." Hearing this, Mu Yi hurriedly put down the coffee cup that was raised to his mouth and leaned towards the white fox.

"And this kind of thing? Why don't I know? White Fox broke the news, it's time?"

"Let's talk about it. Lingering disdainfully picked up a small piece of cake with a fork, seemingly flawless.

"That's ......," the white fox smiled mysteriously, "in Gu Lichuan's house!"

Hearing this, Ying Lan's body shook slightly, and the hand that was sending the cake to her mouth stopped moving, and her eyes subconsciously looked to the other side. But she still sat in a cold position, motionless.

"Oh?" Mu Yi replied with interest as if he had heard some mystery.

"Let me tell you, when I was ordered to harm Gu Lichuan, I was stopped by Ying Lan with my own hands, you don't know how resolute her attitude is to protect Gu Lichuan, you didn't see the look in her eyes when she looked at Gu Lichuan, tsk. The white fox shook his head as he spoke, like a fortune teller scamming money on the side of the road.

"And then?" Mu Yi seemed to be listening with interest.

Then, what made me even more unbelievable was that "the white fox got closer, and the more mysterious it became," "Ying Lan seems to live in the same ...... as Gu Lichuan"

"White Fox," hearing Ying Lan's call, White Fox raised his head innocently, and bumped into Ying Lan's murderous smile, "Speak, pay attention." In her hand, the cake fork was already aimed at the white fox, and the "Hand of God" was ready to go.

In an instant, Mu Yi straightened his sitting posture and tasted coffee politely: "Well, this coffee is good, not bad." ”

The remaining white fox looked at the smiling Ying Lan with a bewildered expression.

"Yes. What Sister Yinglan said is, I won't say it, I won't say it. ”

Outside the window, the sun begins to set in the west.

Gu Lichuan sat in the room that Andre had arranged for himself, silently listening to the service system giving various explanations for himself. Now he has basically understood the route and various facilities of the base, and next door is the room of the white fox, but now that everyone is gone, he suddenly has a feeling that Wang Lu is not there when Rita goes to work, and he has nothing to do. With a long breath, he threw his head into the soft bed.

Closing his eyes, Gu Lichuan began to recall what had happened in the past few days.

From that rainy night, being attacked, meeting Ying Lan for the first time, fighting with the white fox, and joining the special operations team, it has only been a few days now, and it is only a few days, and his peaceful life has changed so dramatically.

"Actually, it's not a peaceful life. The voice of the silver pupil came.

"Why?" Gu Lichuan asked him.

"Your life was different from anyone else when you realized I existed. Silver Hitomi smiled wickedly, as if asking for credit.

"Although my situation is more unique, my life has always been peaceful. Gu Lichuan retorted.

"Then do you think it is also a peaceful life to meet a beautiful woman who has not been chased by thousands of rich second generations of Chinese-British mixed race?"

"Maybe people just like to live a peaceful life?" Gu Lichuan continued to argue.

"Damn. Yintong said that the quibble could not compare to Gu Lichuan, and he didn't want to continue the debate.

And so there was a real silence in the room again.

"Let's go out," after a while, Gu Lichuan broke the silence, "Find a quiet place to stay for a while." ”

"Whatever you want. Silver Hitomi didn't refuse.

Night slowly fell, and soon the city opened its gorgeous disguise, dazzling lights wrapped itself, countless pillars of light went straight to the sky, this city, more prosperous than the city of Gu Lichuan, but also more hypocritical.

After eating, the three white foxes walked down the street and wandered.

"It's almost time to go back," Mu Yi reminded the white fox, "although there is no mission, there is no vacation either." ”

"Alas...... Said yes. The white fox pouted, and suddenly, he raised his head, as if sensing something.

"Let's go. Ying Lan said to the white fox.

"I seem to have forgotten something, you go back first," the white fox squinted at the roof of a building not far away, with a wicked smile on his face, "I'll be back later." ”

"This guy," Mu Yi smiled helplessly, and left with Ying Lan.

Gu Lichuan sat on the roof of the building, with a dozen beers by his side and a few empty bottles standing and lying down. He looked at the lights of the city, at the moving vehicles, at the distant mountains, at the night with a few stars hanging faintly, and at the cool breeze blowing, speechless.

"Someone. Silver Pupil spoke.

Gu Lichuan turned around suddenly, and the empty bottle in his hand was thrown out casually, shooting towards a black shadow approaching behind him.

With a snap, the empty bottle was caught by the black shadow with his bare hands.

"Oh, hey, are you drinking here?" a brisk voice came, and the black shadow stepped into the light, revealing the white fox's signature smiling face.

"White Fox?" Gu Lichuan smiled at him in some surprise.

"What's the matter? Sitting here alone and drinking. The white fox sat down next to Gu Lichuan and picked up a bottle of beer, Gu Lichuan wanted to hand him the bottle opener, but he didn't expect the white fox to stuff the beer into his mouth, and snorted and bit the cap with his teeth. So Gu Lichuan smiled, turned his head and continued to look at the scenery.

"It's nothing, it's just upset. Gu Lichuan took out a bottle of wine again, didn't open it, just frowned and looked at the bottle cap.

"What's there to be upset about," the white fox drank half a bottle in one gulp and let out a long breath, "Don't you like it here?"

"No...... I just feel quite powerless, and I can't see the future at all. Gu Lichuan said a little bitterly.

"Hahaha!" Surprisingly, the white fox did not comfort Gu Lichuan, but looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Mom, you're scared to death. Gu Lichuan was startled by the laughter and blamed the white fox.

Laughing enough, the white fox gasped for a while and took a sip of wine: "I'll tell you, Gu Lichuan, if you can think like this, it means that you still have room to rise." Look at Ying Lan, she looks strong and indifferent, isn't she confused - if she is not confused, how can she escape from marriage, how can she let you live!"

"You know everything......" Gu Lichuan looked at him.

"Gu Lichuan," the white fox looked at the tall buildings in the distance, surrounded by lights, as brilliant and dazzling as a roar, "Do you know that in the face of fate, most people are confused. The death of an important person, the intrusion of an uninvited guest, the collapse of faith, and the destruction of everything. Few people can help but feel powerless. Just do your best and live well. ”

"White Fox, have you also been 'tortured'?" Gu Lichuan looked at the white fox and asked.

"It's more than torture," the white fox sneered, looking at the night in the distance, "I shouldn't be alive now." ”

"That's it. Gu Lichuan lowered his head and pondered. Although he didn't understand what the white fox meant, he could clearly feel from his tone that he had deep malice towards what happened to him and this boring world.

"Anyway, I'll still cover you well," the white fox smiled knowingly, "buy some more bars, don't get drunk and don't go home." ”

"Hmm. Gu Lichuan nodded.

Back at base, it was early in the morning. Mu Yi and Ying Lan had already fallen asleep in their respective rooms. Gu Lichuan helped the stumbling white fox and listened to him whispering unclear drunken words.

"Gu Lichuan, I, I have to go back, where is my home. ”

"It's home, it's home. Gu Lichuan responded to his drunken words while holding him with difficulty.

"No~Yes~!" The white fox waved his hand, "How can my family be so small, send me quickly...... Send me home, Jane is still waiting for me at home. ”

Is that girl named Jane his girlfriend? Gu Lichuan thought in a daze, and finally helped the white fox back to the house.

"Sleep," Gu Lichuan looked at the white fox and smiled helplessly, "See you tomorrow." ”

After speaking, Gu Lichuan turned off the light in the white fox's room and walked towards his room.

"Jane ......" the white fox called the name softly, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Lying on the bed, Gu Lichuan was dizzy, his body was a little floating, and he felt very comfortable, like soaking in the dark blue lake, letting himself sink and sink.

"Damn, I've only drunk a few bottles and become drunk like this, I really look down on you. Silver Hitomi taunted him disdainfully.

"What, I'm happy. Gu Lichuan looked at the light and smirked.

". Silver Pupil scolded, not wanting to say anything more.

"Hey, Silver Eyes. Gu Lichuan called him again.

"What are you doing?" replied impatiently.

"Do you miss Rita?" Gu Lichuan looked at the ceiling and asked him blankly.

Silence again.

After a long time, the silver pupil gave the answer: "Yes." ”

"You see, I've always been so ignorant, but Rita has never disliked me, and I've always been happy with her for so many years," Gu Lichuan slowly stretched out his right hand and watched the light and shadow slowly flow through his fingers, "But after Rita died, I felt that confusion again, and I felt like a waste again." ”

Silver Hitomi didn't speak, but listened quietly.

"Since the two of us met, I haven't been bullied, but in fact, every time you protect me, then Rita, and then protect Yinglan," Gu Lichuan laughed, his smile was a little bleak and a little sad, "It's hard for you, but sometimes I really want to ......" said, he slowly clenched his outstretched hand, as if to grab something, "I really hope that I can protect the person I want to protect." ”

"I can't see it," Silver Hitomi said with some relief, "I thought you kid was going to keep going." Don't worry, since the two of us have known each other for so many years, I will naturally not abandon you. ”

"How did you get into my body in the first place, or how did I get into you?" Although Gu Lichuan was a little drunk, his thoughts were still very clear.

"I won't tell you these things. Silver Hitomi smiled mischievously.

"Don't say it. ”

"It's not that I don't say it, it's that there are some things that can't be said too soon. ”

"Oh...... So mysterious, huh?"

Outside Gu Lichuan's house, in the training ground, the lowest level of the special operations group, many No. 13 mecha sent by the Technology Research and Development Bureau lined up and stood quietly.

Suddenly, the head of one of the mechs slowly lifted up, and a red light emanated from it, brighter and brighter, brighter and brighter, with a fierce light. Its arms were slowly raised, and the heavy machine gun on its wrist was reloaded......
