Chapter 142

Main star. Ran's family

In the quaintly decorated living room, Ran Yi'an and Ran Yunqi's grandson sat opposite each other, quietly not interfering with each other. Although his hair is gray, Ran Yi'an's posture is still tall and mighty. Sitting at the table and looking at the latest information of the Federation, he is like a dormant cheetah, if he is carelessly targeted, his life is in danger. And opposite him, Ran Yunqi bit the fresh fruit one by one, but he kept frowning.

Seeing this, Ran Yi'an turned off the electronic screen in front of the table, glanced at Ran Yunqi opposite, and said, "What's the matter, it's not to taste?" The style of the soldier made him extremely dislike the waste of food, but seeing that his little grandson, who had never been a picky eater, frowned at the moment, he still subconsciously asked.

After listening to his grandfather's question, Ran Yunqi said, "Fortunately, it may be that I used to eat the batch of fruits and vegetables, and suddenly I didn't eat anything else, and I was a little uncomfortable." The batch of fruits and vegetables he said refers to the fruits and vegetables ordered from Gu Pinyao three years ago, because they are only eaten by a small range of people in the family, and they usually store the mustard seeds in the storage space of the ZĂ i family to keep them fresh, so they have almost eaten comfortably in recent years, and when they change it, the fruits and vegetables on the market taste too poor, so they are not adaptable.

"That's right, these on the market are really not as good as those fruits and vegetables. Hey, you should remember the bittersweet and sweet, and when Master Gyllenhaal arrives, he will help you build a special fruit and vegetable catalytic garden, and the fruits and vegetables will taste much better. "It is said that 'the emperor loves the eldest son, and the people love the youngest son', although Ran Yi'an is also a high-ranking and powerful person, but speaking of which, his favorite is this Ran Yunqi's little grandson. Although he is not as steady and steadfast as his eldest brother and second brother, he is ruthless and daring enough. let Ran Yi'an see when he was young.

Pursed his lips, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't grow the taste of those fruits and vegetables. Ran Yunqi thought of Gu Pinyao, who disappeared with the warship three years ago, and his expression became obscure. If she hadn't given her the jade plaque back then, I am afraid that I would never be able to stand on my legs, and if the other party needs his help, he will do his best. But three years ago, it happened so suddenly, they were not prepared at all, the warship was hijacked, and they couldn't save it if they wanted to. In the end, it was learned that the warship burned in space. He had an indescribable pathos.

"Are you thinking about that girl surnamed Gu?" Seeing that the grandson was a little distracted. There was still a little bit of pain, Ran Yi'an naturally knew what the other party was thinking, so he continued, "Actually, I don't think that Gu family girl is dead. Her skills are not small. Whatever is given to you will make your legs heal. There must be a trick to save your life. Besides, at that time, we only knew that the warship burned down, and we didn't know what had happened before. It's hard to say whether she escaped ahead of time. We haven't found any trace of her in the past three years, there are many possibilities, maybe she deliberately concealed her tracks, maybe she lived in seclusion on a remote planet, the Federation is so big, if there is fate, we will meet. ”

"Hmm." Ran Yunqi listened to Ran Yi'an's words, but responded lightly, and his mood still seemed to be a little depressed. He set up the Strange Fruit and Vegetable Catalytic Garden, which was not only to see business opportunities, but also to reminisce about Gu Pinyao. was emptying his thoughts, and as a result, he listened to Ran Yi'an on the other side.

"Hi, come and see this news. Do you remember that kid from the Su family? Recently, he went to Torstar with those rich and noble children, and also patronized a newly opened restaurant, so that his friends could take care of the restaurant's business. As a result, the media hyped up the event, and there were a lot of free advertisements for the restaurant. You've been having a bad appetite lately, why don't you try it too? Anyway, you don't want to see those famous daughters who are vying to visit me, so you can go out to avoid the limelight. ”

Pushing the electronic screen in front of Ran Yunqi, Ran Yi'an said with a joking face. Compared with the Su family, a purely business-oriented hidden family, the Ran family's commercial wealth has not accumulated so much. However, the heirs of the Su family's generation don't seem to be interested in the Su family's business empire, and what they see from the media is mostly the news of where Su Lai went to play, what he ate, and what new flying ships he added, so he is not surprised by Su Lai's behavior in Thor this time. After seeing Ran Yunqi, who has been in a bad mood in recent years, he made the decision and let his little grandson go out to play. The Su family is not afraid of not having a qualified heir, and their little grandson is so good, it is good to take a moderate rest.

"That's it, your eldest brother and second brother are too busy to leave, take advantage of the free time now, go and have more fun, you won't have this opportunity in the future. Go pack your things, I'll book you a ticket to Thorstar. ”

After the words fell, Ran Yi'an got up and pushed Ran Yunqi upstairs. Don't look at him as an iron-blooded soldier, in the face of his relatives, his heart is very soft.

"Eh, grandpa, don't. I still have something to do over there in the Mercenary Association, so it's not good for you to drive me away. Tilting his head sideways and explaining to his grandfather, Ran Yunqi was a little helpless. He didn't want to see those rich daughters with ulterior motives come to the door and have a blind date in disguise, but at a recent party, he found that someone had bad intentions for the mercenary association, and he was not at ease if he didn't check it.

Hearing him say this, Ran Yi'an said, "Where can't I work?" Let you go, you go, less nonsense. ”

Seeing that his old man was so stubborn, Ran Yunqi had no choice but to respond. On the spaceship, Ran Yunqi was sitting on the sofa in the room at this moment, having a video conference with his subordinates.

"Is there any follow-up to send someone to keep an eye on Commander Sola before?" Leaning on the back of the chair casually, it seemed leisurely, but Ran Yunqi's eyes were hidden in the blade, so that the person opposite had to answer nervously.

"He's still the same, usually taking on some intermediate tasks for the team, and occasionally there are some with a higher risk factor, but they all go smoothly. Otherwise, it's nothing. By the way, one thing I have to mention is that he has been with a young woman with him lately, and he seems to be very close. ”

Hearing him say this, Ran Yunqi blinked, and continued, "Have you seen anyone he has in contact with in private?" ”

"I haven't contacted anyone on Skynet, but I don't know about it in private."

"Did the woman behave unusually?"

Hearing Ran Yunqi's words, the person opposite thought for a while, as if he remembered something, and exclaimed, "That woman likes to inquire about some things in the mercenary association, once Sola has something to do, leave." She would pull Sora's group members to chat. In addition, she is so beautiful that those people are so fascinated that they can take out everything. It's quite strange to think about it, what did the woman ask, and Sora's members answered truthfully, is the beauty misleading? ”

was about to open his mouth to explain the following things, when suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Ran Yunqi's mind. Mistaken beauty? It's impossible, although Sora's members are not famous, they are not the kind of people who are seduced by beauties lightly, and they are also rich in experience. How can you obey the woman who has fun with your own group leader? One or two people are still possible. All of them are like this, and there are quirks.

"You send someone to keep an eye on the woman, but remember not to be spotted by her. There should be something demagogic about her, and she should try to use remote monitoring to track it. ”

"Yes. Master. ”

"The others continue to deal with the Mercenary Guild. If there is a situation that cannot be handled, do not hide it. Notify me right away. ”

"Yes."

After the meeting, Ran Yunqi did it quietly, his fingers rhythmically looking at the desktop. Thoughtfully. In recent years, the situation of the Federation has changed, and it is entering a critical moment of power separation. The recent strong rise of the Ran family will naturally cause some forces to be restless, and they must be very careful. The Mercenary Association is a delicious cake that many people want to share, and it can be seen from the young woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, that someone is planning against them behind them. It's just that I don't know who is playing with crooked brains, and I can't prevent it.

"Young master, you can rest first, there are still a few hours before you arrive at Thorstar." Behind him, it was Ran Jun who spoke. Seeing the exhaustion in his young master's eyes, he immediately sent a glass of warm honey water for Ran Yunqi to drink to calm his nerves.

"Hmm." No matter how worried he was, what should come will always come, and after he drank the warm water sent by Ran Jun, he lay back on the soft chair to rest. But he didn't know that this trip was about to bring him a huge surprise, of course, this is a later story.

And who is the young woman who they pay close attention to? Now let's find out.

"Master, Sola's gang has been bewitched by me, and I heard them say that the person behind the mercenary association seems to be a military and political family." The woman's voice was clear and tactful, revealing a bit of flattery. But looking at the figure on the other side of the video, she didn't dare to joke with a solemn face.

"Oh? Military and political families, that's all? The person on the other side could only vaguely see a figure, against the light, with a hoarse and low voice, which looked extremely strange. He repeated the woman's words slightly, without much affection, but still made the woman opposite feel the displeasure in his heart.

"Please forgive me, the people of the Mercenary Association are very defensive, and I don't know where to start, but I don't get much information from these people in Sora, I really don't ......"

As a result, before she could finish speaking, the black shadow interrupted the woman's words and said, "I said, I don't like excuses, give you a while longer, and if you don't find out more specific information, you can come back and receive the punishment." ”

"Yes." Hearing the threat in the man's tone, the woman couldn't help but feel a chill in her body, and she replied in a whisper, until the other party hung up the video, and she was relieved. If Gu Pinyao was there at this moment, he would recognize that this woman was the woman who led her into the door when she went to the red light district to look for Du Rui on the Sky Net that day, and the identity of the black shadow was obviously Du Rui who was rescued by her.

"Du Cheng, how are you doing over there?" Different from the weakness when facing Gu Pinyao, Du Rui at this moment was full of evil energy, and his loose skin hung on his body, which made people shudder when he saw it.

Hearing Du Rui's question, Du Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My side is going well, young master, don't worry." It's just that Fujiwara is still not sure if the young master is sincere, are you like this? ”

He is the one who has been by Dury's side since he was a child, and he is absolutely loyal to Dury. But that Fujiwara was just an orphan girl who joined the Martial King's forces halfway, and then was adopted by the young master, although he had obeyed the young master all these years, but he was not at ease. After all, the woman is evil to death, and her demagogic ability is not weak, and she wants to attack him three times and twice, if she hadn't been prepared, he might have been tricked, so she didn't have a good impression of her. It's just that the young master knew what Fujiwara was doing, and he still let the other party stay by his side, so that Du Cheng couldn't understand.

After listening to Du Cheng's words, Du Rui smiled, "No matter who it is, as long as it is used properly, it is useful." Over the years, I have been suffering from Gu worms, and it is not all her secrets that she leaked, assisting those people to secretly harm me. But she's only working for others, and now that she knows I'm not dead, she'll definitely report the news. The person who rescued me has not yet come, and she must feel that I still trust her, and send her to Sola in exchange for information, killing two birds with one stone. Even if she can't find anything, it won't hurt me. ”

Although he was smiling, Dury's eyes were still cold.

However, Du Cheng listened to his young master's words, nodded clearly, and said, "By the way, those people have not been able to find us, and the search has become less effective recently." Everyone's attention has shifted to a group of gentlemen, and we are a little safer. But young master, are you okay now? Since the doctor promised to treat you, why hasn't he come yet, can't it be a repentance? ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Du Rui said, "She may have something urgent to do, but the medicine was sent to me, and she also sent some fruits and vegetables and medicinal food, so that she will not regret it." ”

He knew that Gu Pinyao would never give up on him, after all, no matter what he said, they also signed a master-servant contract, and in order to renew his life, the other party also refined him into a yin and evil Ten Thousand Soul Ding. After spending so much thought, if you give up, you will be trading at a loss. He has endured humiliation for so many years, and he knows human nature very well, he is sure that Gu Pinyao will never do this.

"You continue to supervise how those people are doing, I want to go and rest, you can step down."

"Yes, young master."

When Du Cheng left the room and glanced at the closed door, he added another lock to make sure that the sound was completely isolated, and then he took out a yellow talisman folded into a triangle from his arms and said to it, "Uncle, I'm Du Rui, are you busy now?" ”

With a wave of fluctuations that were difficult for the human body to feel outward, a thin middle-aged man tens of thousands of miles away suddenly stopped collecting medicine, and with a slight jump, he fell from the cliff wall to the bottom of the valley. took out the yellow charm and replied, "I'm here, what's wrong?" ”

Du Rui hadn't told Gu Pinyao everything before, in fact, he had been trying to save his uncle, who was not only a physician, but also a hermit who practiced runes for many years. The triangular yellow charm he took out from his arms just now is a kind of call symbol that the other party keeps in touch with him, no matter whether the two parties holding the call symbol are thousands of miles away, and regardless of whether there is a communication signal in the environment, even if it is in a vacuum environment, as long as the call symbol is still intact, then you can talk at any time. Moreover, the order in which each call character is written is determined by the person who makes it, so those who don't know it can't crack it at all, and there is no way to know the content of their call, which is much safer and more hidden than the communication signal.
