There is a cabin at the back of the warehouse with a bed, a table and two sofas, simple but clean. In front of the hut was a river, and on the other side of the river was a stopped construction site, where there was silence.

"I used to live here for a while. Xia Changhe said, and then asked Xia Lei to sit down on the sofa.

Xia Lei sat down on the sofa, "Dad, there are many things I can't figure out. We finally met, and I wanted to figure out those things. ”

Xia Changhe sat opposite Xia Lei, "I know, it's time to tell you the truth." ”

Xia Lei looked at his father and waited quietly for him to speak.

"I'm sure you already know I'm not an ordinary person. Xia Changhe slowly said, "I am a member of the FA organization, that is, a freeagent free agent. This organization was born a hundred years ago during World War I, and you can't imagine how powerful and mysterious it is. ”

"You...... How did you join this FA organization?" Xia Lei couldn't help but interject.

Xia Changhe smiled bitterly, "I am an orphan and grew up in an orphanage. One day, a man came to the orphanage and took me away. But not the kind of adoption you imagine, I was taken to Siberia, where I was brutally trained. There, there are children from all over the world, American, German, British, Japanese, Israeli, Saudi Arabia, you can see on the map, there are orphans sent there. The FA organization is a worldwide organization, and it has a body that specifically selects members, and I am just one of them. ”

Xia Lei then understood why he had never met his grandparents.

Xia Changhe continued, "I have been in Siberia for fifteen years, many people have died, and those who passed the final test and survived have also been sent back to their original countries, lurking and waiting for the mission. During that time, I knew your mother. ”

Xia Lei's heart ached slightly, and he was a little vague about his mother's memory.

"I know people like me shouldn't approach her, but I still can't control myself. I fell in love and for the first time felt like I was living like a human being. So, we got married, and then we had you and Xia Xue. I survived in the gap between my family and the FA organization, and I played the role of a husband and father in the family while performing tasks for the FA organization. ”

"Does the FA organization know about my sister and me?" asked Xia Lei.

Xia Changhe said: "There are three people who know, but they are already dead. I'm not going to let them live, and whoever threatens you siblings, I'm going to kill him. ”

Xia Lei was awe-inspiring in his heart, his father was actually such a ruthless character! This was just like the ordinary and honest father he remembered!

"I'm most sorry for your mother, she didn't know my true identity until she fell ill and died. Just after your mother's death, I received a mission to investigate AE research centers in the United States. It took me almost two years to investigate the secret of the AE Research Center, which is AE capsules, a drug that can allow human beings to fully evolve. It happens that during that time, you get sick, often have inexplicable headaches, and your health is getting worse and worse. I took you to the hospital for an examination, and the doctor told me that you have a tumor in your head that cannot be operated on, and you will not survive for more than a year. ”

"So you ......"

Xia Changhe nodded, "When your mother was dying, she told me to take good care of your brothers and sisters, and I promised her." I'm not going to watch you die like this. I stole twelve AE capsules from the AE Research Center for you to take. This is the only hope that will keep you alive. ”

Many memories came back to Xia Lei's mind, "You asked me to take one AE capsule a month, and I took eleven of them...... But how can AE capsules treat the tumors in my brain?"

Xia Changhe shook his head, "I'm not a biologist, I don't know how it does it, but I know that evolution is a very mysterious and powerful force, and this power can change your body to be more perfect and powerful. In fact, I had a lot of information on this mission, and I was convinced that the AE capsules would have survived, otherwise I wouldn't have stolen them. ”

Xia Lei subconsciously touched the alloy pendant on his neck, he had already taken eleven of the twelve AE capsules, what would he get if he took the last one?

"I know you still have one. Xia Changhe looked at Xia Lei, "When are you going to take it?"

Xia Lei thought for a moment and said, "I really want to take it, and I want to know what it will bring, but I want to find out what its ingredients are." I've also investigated, and I know they're the only ones, so I don't have the idea of taking them for the time being. I also have a puzzle about how the AE Research Center got it, since it's the only one, and who produced them?

Xia Changhe was silent for a moment before he said: "Now human technology can't reach this level, they are excavated. ”

"Huh?" Xia Lei was stunned for a moment.

"I got the information that during World War II, when the Japanese invaded Nanjing, they found an old book from the Ming Dynasty in a library. There's something unbelievable about it, and it's related to AE. The letters 'AE' appear in the books of the Ming Dynasty, and this book is incredible. However, the Japanese were busy encroaching on our land and did not particularly care about it. Later, World War II ended and Japan surrendered. The U.S. military took over Japan and discovered the book. The Americans began to study it, searched for it according to the clues in the book, and finally found the AE capsule in Jerusalem. ”

All this is like a bizarre mythical story.

The Japanese invaders occupied Nanjing and discovered ancient books from the Ming Dynasty. The Americans took over post-World War II Japan, found clues, and found the AE capsule in Jerusalem. But in the end, these AE capsules entered the stomach of a Chinese teenager. Is this fate?

Xia Changhe continued, "If you give the Americans some more time, they may be able to unlock the secret of the AE capsule, but it's a pity that you can't wait that long." I stole them and gave them to you. I was also wanted by the CIA for this reason, and I was also hunted down by the FA organization. How can I meet you brothers and sisters under such circumstances?"

Xia Lei smiled bitterly, "So, at present, even the AE Research Center is not sure about the origin and secret of the AE capsule?"

Xia Changhe shook his head, "I can tell you for sure that no one in this world knows the secret of AE capsules yet. ”

"And what about the ancient alloy that I dug up in Afghanistan? It also has AE markings on it. ”

Xia Changhe said: "My investigation has never been interrupted, so I asked Yelena to come to you and want you to give me that piece of metal." However, you are also doing the right thing, and you have handed it over to the Chinese government. After all, the source of AE was found in Huaguo, which can be regarded as a kind of destination. What's more, with your status in the 101st round, you also had access to that metal, so I gave up. ”

Xia Lei knew very well that if someone else was holding that ancient alloy, his father Xia Changhe probably wouldn't have thought about it that way, and he might kill that person and take away the ancient alloy.

"I did my best, but you were eventually discovered by the CIA. They sent a Chinese intelligence officer, Liang Siyao, to contact you, and I wanted to kill Liang Siyao during that time. However, she is very powerful, and she has CIA people around her to protect her. Later, I found out that Liang Siyao didn't have the intention of hurting you, and I just sent Evgenia to report to you, but I didn't expect to be killed by her. Speaking of this, Xia Changhe smiled, "What's more interesting is that she is in love with you, and you are also in love with her, so I can't kill her." In that case, you won't forgive me. ”

Xia Lei couldn't help but smile bitterly, his love with Liang Siyao was a mistake at all.

"So, what else do you want to ask me?" Xia Changhe looked at Xia Lei, his eyes full of kindness.

Xia Lei said: "You have told me everything you can tell me, and I have nothing to ask, but I still want to ask." How far have you investigated AE's secrets?"

Xia Changhe said: "Now that you know as much as I do, it is up to you to find out the secret of AE." Son, only you have access to that compass and that metal. I will help you in secret, and we father and son will join forces and we will have a chance to unravel the mystery. ”

Xia Lei originally wanted to get out of the 101st round, but now it seems that this plan has to be postponed again. If he had no relationship with the 101st round, how could he have access to that compass and the ancient alloy?

The world is so helpless, there are some people you don't want to see, but you are entangled. There are things you don't want to do, but you have to do them.

"Son, be careful. Xia Changhe advised: "My identity is special, once the people of the 101st Bureau know, you will be in trouble." ”

Xia Lei said: "I have been targeted. ”

"Who?" Xia Changhe suddenly frowned.

"I don't know who it is, but I'm sure of it," Charley said. But don't worry, I didn't do anything to be sorry for the country, and I didn't do anything to break the law. In fact, I have been serving my country, and they will not ignore my contribution and role. In other words, even if one day, they know who you are, I believe that the people above will give me a fair offer. ”

Xia Changhe sighed, "I'm relieved that you can think like this, but if you don't make a lot of enemies, I'm still worried that your enemies will take advantage of this to attack you." ”

Xia Lei nodded, "I'll be careful." After a pause, he said: "You are my father, no matter what your identity is, you will always be my father, and this will never change." I'm doing right, I'm sitting upright, I'm above board, and they're going to use this against me, so come, I'm not going to flinch, and I'm not afraid. ”

Xia Changhe smiled, with such a son, what reason did he have not to be proud?

But at this moment, Yelena's voice came from the house, "Let's go!"
