When Chu Yunxuan woke up, Xiao Xiao was still cowering next to him and falling asleep. Seeing that she slept so peacefully, he couldn't bear to wake her up. It wasn't until seven o'clock in the morning that Xiao Xiao's mobile phone alarm rang, and she stretched lazily, woke up with a "huh-" sound, and opened half of her eyes to peek at Chu Yunxuan.

"When did you wake up?" Xiao Xiao rubbed her eyes lazily and muttered.

"An hour ago." Chu Yunxuan helped Xiao Xiao brush up the messy broken hair and said.

"Why don't you call me? Can't go to the toilet? Xiao Xiao asked with a confused expression on her face, "Happy birthday, Yun Xuan." ”

"Xie Lu Xie, don't you wait for the others to come and talk together?" Chu Yunxuan smiled bitterly.

Xiao Xiao smiled mischievously and said, "Hmph, take advantage of the vigil and be the first to say." Hungry yet? They should be bringing breakfast in a moment. ”

As soon as Xiao Xiao got out of bed, she took a breath of cool air, grabbed her high boots and put them on her feet: "Hey, it's so cold outside...... Xiaoya must have been in bed with you for a long time every day in winter, right? ”

"When it's time off, that's right." Chu Yunxuan kindly watched Xiao Xiao put on her shoes and put on a down jacket over her woolen sweater.

After getting dressed, Xiao Xiao kissed Chu Yunxuan on the forehead and said with a smile: "I'll go back and wash up and tidy up, and I'll come over with them to celebrate your birthday with you." You're here alone and waiting patiently for a while, good boy. ”

"It's okay, be careful on the road, wrap up and don't catch a cold." Chu Yunxuan helped Xiao Xiao tighten the scarf and said.

Xiao Xiao smiled and waved her little hand at him, waiting for her to leave. Chu Yunxuan pressed the headphones and asked about the situation last night.

"Happy birthday." Lan Lei replied in the headphones, "But there was no movement last night, and the hunters seem to have returned home." It is speculated that the hunters intend to avoid the Palliative for the time being. It may slow down the pace of action and choose to assassinate agents one by one, or it may be to develop anti-palliative agents in response. But there are not enough people in the organization to investigate. ”

"Well, it's no wonder. After all, it's the hunters who have to be investigated, and they don't have the ability to do so, so they're just looking for death to track these guys, right? But waiting for the hunter's next attack is not a solution. Chu Yunxuan sighed and said.

"That's right, if the hunters made an anti-palliative. We don't have to play. Lan Lei sighed. A new round of engagement is needed, taking blood samples and anti-palliative samples from the opposing side, and then researching new forms of palliative agents. At that point, the guys just had to repeat the above actions one more time. ”

Chu Yunxuan knew that it was a fluke to be able to get a blood sample this time, not to mention that the hunters would take precautions next time. So it looks like this. The last resort seems to be the only thing left......

"Alas. Can be done now. It seems that the only way to fight them is to use the blood samples of the hunters and strengthen the agents to the same physique as the hunters. However, there is also a clear understanding in the organization that no one should want to do that. Lan Lei sighed and said.

"So. What if it's only temporary? Elevate your physical functions to the same level as or close to the level of hunters. Chu Yunxuan proposed.

"This ...... I can suggest it to the organization. But with such a strong effect, it is impossible for a medicine to be harmless to the body. Just as hunters have shortened their lifespans by more than fifty years, the use of agents is bound to cause permanent damage. Lan Lei said heavily, "In short, I will report to you at any time." At least have a good birthday today, eh? ”

"I know it, thank you." Chu Yunxuan sighed and cut off contact.

Not long after cutting off contact with Lan Lei, Lan Ya quietly pushed open the door of the ward, and her tiptoeing appearance was particularly cute. Chu Yunxuan couldn't help but smile and said, "Oh, look at my little angel, there seems to be an extra round of sun in the room." ”

"I hate it, I'll put a high hat on someone as soon as I come......" Lan Ya glared at him with a smile, then sat on the edge of his bed, and said softly after a gentle kiss: "Happy birthday, husband, you are twenty-two years old." ”

"Yes, uncle. What about the girls? Why are you the only one who came first? Chu Yunxuan said with a smile.

"I'm worried when I'm not around you, so I came early. Anyway, there are no special surprises, we have been with you for so many years. Lan Ya stroked Chu Yunxuan's cheek and smiled, "Did they change the medicine for you?" ”

"I changed it once at twelve o'clock yesterday, and I haven't changed it today." Chu Yunxuan said as he passed his hand through Lan Ya's soft hair, "You washed your hair last night?" It's so supple. ”

"Yes, it's your birthday, of course people have to clean it up." Lan Ya pulled her braids back of her head and smiled, "The birthday gift will be given to you with Lin Zhi and them, and I will pick it up with them, I hope you will like it." ”

"Definitely do." Chu Yunxuan smiled, picked up his phone and looked at it, "Hmm...... My parents' and my sister's birthday wishes are the same as in previous years. Alas, it's clear that they've all passed the age of their birthdays. ”

"But you carefully prepare birthdays and gifts for us every year." Lan Ya pursed her lips and said.

"Because you will always be my treasure, of course I will always have to surprise you." Chu Yunxuan said softly.

Lan Ya also looked at him gently, and the two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was good. At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Lin Zhi and the three of them came in rubbing their hands, Xiao Xiao took the lead and smiled: "As soon as you came in, you heard such touching words?" ”

"Happy birthday." Lin Zhi smiled and waved his hand to Chu Yunxuan, and Su Qian also said obediently, "Happy birthday Brother Xuan." ”

"Xiaoqian got up early this morning and made a cake for you by herself, it was very fresh when it came out of the oven." Lan Ya pursed her lips and smiled, and brought the cake to the bedside with Lin Zhi and the others, and then gave gifts to each other.

simply blew out the candles and made a wish, even if the birthday was over, but the four of Lan Ya still stayed in the hospital to accompany him.

"Won't you open the gifts?" Xiao Xiao picked Chu Yunxuan with her toes and asked, "It's rare that we picked it all afternoon." ”

"Demolish, this is demolition." Chu Yunxuan grabbed the gift and said with a perfunctory smile. Su Qian was a little coquettish and said, "Wait until you finish eating the cake before dismantling it...... Anyway, the gift won't run away. Didn't Brother Xuan have breakfast yet? ”

"Okay, then eat it and then dismantle it." Lin Zhi rubbed Su Qian's head and smiled.

While eating the cake, everyone asked about Chu Yunxuan's physical condition on the hospital bed.

"It's almost recovered." Chu Yunxuan untied the bandage on the palm of his right hand and said, on the palm of the hand that was pierced, there was now only a hideous scar left on the palm and back of the hand.

"When I changed the dressing in the morning, the shallow cut scars on my body were basically about to fall off, and the scars on my shoulders were also formed, and the external injuries should heal soon. What about inside? Does it hurt to move? Lanya asked with concern.

"It's still a bit of a bit, and it may take two more days to fully recover." Chu Yunxuan sighed and said.

"It's okay, we'll be here with you, try not to let you get bored." Lan Ya pursed her lips and smiled.

Lin Zhi cocked Erlang's legs. He took a bite of cake and said, "Yes." That's how it is when you're at home anyway, right? We're on the sidelines, and then you take your own computer and surf the Internet or something. ”

"It's good to see Brother Xuan stay at home for a few days." Su Qian teased on the side, Xiao Xiao immediately nodded thoughtfully: "I can't agree with this anymore, every time he goes out, I imagine him standing next to a nuclear bomb and defusing it." ”

"Hmm. That's a long time ago. At that time, you didn't know who I was. Chu Yunxuan said with a serious face. Xiao Xiao's eyes widened suddenly. Asked in disbelief, "Really!?" Have you really defused a nuclear bomb? ”

Lin Zhi held his chin and smiled bitterly: "Can that thing be dismantled......

"Yes, you just need to remove the chip with the detonation program installed." Chu Yunxuan said with a smile.

"I'll go, are you serious? I thought I was kidding...... Where was the nuclear bomb? Lin Zhi hurriedly asked.

"It was on its way to the Israeli border. It was purchased by a terrorist organization with the intention of using it in a terrorist act, but the nuclear bomb came from the United States. In the context of the United Nations Nuclear Weapons Convention, the United States acted in clear violation of the treaty, so in order to avoid causing further turmoil, we were ordered to dismantle the nuclear bomb and not recover it. Chu Yunxuan said with a smile.

"You didn't tell us about such a big thing!" Xiao Xiao's eyes widened and said.

Chu Yunxuan was puzzled: "How big is this?" and not in our country......"

"Hey, it's not that. Comrade, you are completely unaware of your mistake. Lin Zhi frowned, "The point is, you went to contact such a dangerous thing as nuclear weapons, and you didn't tell us?" If this thing does explode, will you have any DNA left? Wouldn't that seem to have evaporated from this world out of thin air? We're going to go crazy, okay? ”

"Although it sounds like an atomic bomb is an exaggeration, the difficulty of the mission is not high, and my assessment rate is 84% chance that I can complete the mission, and 16% chance of failing but escaping." Chu Yunxuan said softly.

Lan Ya persuaded on the side: "Okay, everyone is worried about you too." Just admit your mistakes, don't be stubborn. ”

"Yes, I was wrong about my ancestors." Chu Yunxuan sighed helplessly, and finished eating the last bite of the cake.

Immediately when it was time to open the gift, Xiao Xiao kept smiling at the god, and Chu Yunxuan knew that there must be a surprise in her gift. Sure enough, when I took it apart and looked at it, it was actually a set of erotic underwear, and it was the kind of style that was so bold that Lan Ya turned red directly when she saw it. Chu Yunxuan suddenly frowned and groaned.

“Goodjob！” Chu Yunxuan gave Xiao Xiao a thumbs up and smiled, "It's worthy of being my daughter." ”

"GJ: What a fart! Put it away, don't let anyone see it! Lan Ya was in a hurry, and hurriedly grabbed the erotic underwear and stuffed it back into the box, and then glared at Xiao Xiao viciously.

After eating the cake and opening the gift, the birthday is over. In the next time, the four of Lan Ya continued to stay in the clinic to accompany him, and the five of them each used their computers or mobile phones to surf the Internet, chatting occasionally, just like in the past.

In this way, when it was almost noon, Lin Zhi and Su Qian went back to cook, while Lan Ya and Xiao Xiao helped Chu Yunxuan change his bandages. After changing the medicine, Lin Zhi and Su Qian also came over with lunch boxes. After lunch, the afternoon continued with a peaceful and peaceful time in the ward.

"Mother-in-law, I feel like I want to get something to chew, let's go buy some snacks. There seems to be a vending machine in the clinic. Lin Zhi flipped through his phone and pouted at Xiao Xiao.

"Don't go, go yourself. Or look for Xiaoqian, the old lady is warm. Xiao Xiao seemed to sink into the soft chair, replied lazily, her hair was messily pulled down to cover her pretty face, and she shrank by the window to bask in the sun.

"You mother-in-law...... Lin Zhi frowned, Lan Ya hurriedly said, "I'll go with you!" ”

As she spoke, Lan Ya turned her head to Chu Yunxuan and asked, "Yunxuan, do you want to eat something?" ”

"I'll go with you, I just want to go for a walk." Chu Yunxuan said, and was about to struggle out of bed. So Xiao Xiao and Lan Ya came over to help Chu Yunxuan get out of bed. Lin Zhi hesitated: "Can you get out of bed and move now?" ”

"It should be possible. Brother Xuan's leg was not injured, and the doctor also said that occasionally going out to breathe fresh air is good for recovery. Su Qian laughed softly beside her and helped Chu Yunxuan stand up.

The five of them came to the back garden of the clinic and began to wander around. Although it is now the depths of winter. But the days are still relatively warm. After all, sunlight always feels more comfortable than heating. The fresh air also lifted Chu Yunxuan's spirits.

"Whew...... Sure enough, we still need fresh air. Chu Yunxuan said, trying to move his body.

"Hey! Die to you! "I told you you you couldn't move! What to do if the wound is cracked!? These little girls were suddenly reprimanded, and Chu Yunxuan grinned, "It's okay. The wound has basically healed, but it can't make big moves yet. ”

Chu Yunxuan wanted to recover as soon as possible and devote himself to the work of the organization. It is not a good thing that a group of hunters with a balance shaft are secretly staring at his life.

"Well, be quiet, I'm going to get in touch with the organization." Chu Yunxuan said, and the four of Lan Ya quieted down. Chu Yunxuan immediately contacted Lan Lei and asked if the organization had any plans for the next step.

This time, it was Dragon Claw who talked to him directly, and now Dragon Claw and Dragon Tooth have basically recovered from their injuries and entered the stage of physical recovery.

The best idea at the moment is to create a temporary enhancement potion that can increase the agent's physical strength to the level of a hunter for a certain period of time. As Chu Yunxuan guessed, this was obviously the safest method. No matter what kind of anti-palliative agents the hunters developed, as long as the agents can strengthen their physical strength, it will be enough to fight the hunters.

And you can take this medicine with you to defend yourself, and you can use it again when you are in a crisis. There is no doubt that the medicine has serious side effects, but if you can save your life, it is still very cost-effective to live a few years less.

"I've heard you've singled out a hunter, and that's amazing. Even if Dragontooth and I had to work together with a squad to kill a hunter, may I ask you how you did it? Dragonclaw asked over there.

"Hmm......" Chu Yunxuan groaned, looked at the girls beside him, sighed and replied: "Actually, if it weren't for Cecilia's shot, I would have died." But before...... I guess it's because I'm not afraid of death. ”

"Not afraid of death?" Dragonclaw asked with interest, "Well, that sounds ......."

"It's not that I'm not afraid of death...... Looking at the threatening eyes of Lan Ya and the others, Chu Yunxuan hurriedly explained, "It should be the feeling of being left to death and reborn, although the hunters are more powerful, they value their lives too much." They want to live, they want to go back to see their families, so they don't sacrifice themselves to accomplish their missions. ”

"Makes sense, but it won't help much against these people." Dragon Claw sighed and said, "Anyway, this time it was a good job. We got enough information from the hunter you killed to craft the booster. ”

"My pleasure, instructor." Chu Yunxuan said calmly, and then Dragon Claw continued to ask, "After the enhancer is made, do you want to bring it?" Considering that you are already capable of dealing with hunters, and the side effects of that booster are really ...... I still don't recommend that agents like you use augmenters, it's safer to rely on experience and skill. ”

"Hmm...... Are the side effects of enhancers already coming out? Chu Yunxuan asked hesitantly.

"In short, the technicians said that the primitive virus is too domineering, it will forcibly modify the structure of the human body, and occupy some important organs, and it is unavoidable to shorten the life expectancy, so we can only reduce the shortened life value as much as possible." Dragonclaw replied over there.

"Is that so...... But I'm still going to take a dose, just in case. After all, I wasn't very sure about the gang. Chu Yunxuan frowned and sighed.

"Yes, I'll give it to you when the time comes." Dragonclaw replied over there. After cutting off the contact, Lan Ya immediately hugged Chu Yunxuan's left arm and asked, "What is that enhancer?" You talked about the side effects ......"

"I don't want to lie to you. It is a potion that shortens lifespan but increases physical strength for a short time. I don't know the specific effect, this potion is still under development. Chu Yunxuan said truthfully.

"Oh - it turns out that I don't want to live anymore, so just tell my mother, and promise to shorten your life span for ten years at a time." Lin Zhi clenched his fists and smiled kindly, but it gave people a rather eerie sense of horror.

"It's a special situation." Chu Yunxuan surprisingly didn't refute, just rubbed Lin Zhi's head, and sat down on the bench in the back garden with them, "It's better to have a few years of life than to be killed, right?" Besides, our agents are physically stronger and live longer than the average person. Even if it's a short decade. It's still easy to live to be eighty years old. ”

These girls are not ignorant, and they are silent when they hear the words, but they don't seem to be in a good mood.

"Those bastards, why do you have to pester our family Yunxuan......" Lin Zhi said scoldingly. Lan Ya and the others just sighed and didn't speak. Chu Yunxuan had no choice but to explain: "Don't worry. The results are not yet available. We only ask for ten to twenty minutes of physical improvement. This won't consume much lifespan, it should only be ten days. ”

"But it's always a little uncomfortable to listen to in a short life......," Xiao Xiao said as she leaned on Chu Yunxuan's shoulder.

"Anyway, nothing is settled yet." Chu Yunxuan held his chin and sighed. "Those people are also very afraid of death, and if we know that we are likely to kill them, they may give up. Let's talk about it then, good. ”

Chu Yunxuan's birthday passed quickly, and after dinner, due to the lack of help in the restaurant, Lin Zhi and Xiao Xiao rushed over, leaving Su Qian to keep vigil with Chu Yunxuan, and then wait for Lan Ya to take over at about ten o'clock in the evening.

"It's the first time I've taken care of Brother Xuan like this." Su Qian lay on the side of Chu Yunxuan's bed and smiled sweetly, pillowed on her arm, tilted her head and looked at Chu Yunxuan, looking very happy.

"Is it cold or not?" Chu Yunxuan stroked Su Qian's little brain and smiled.

Su Qian shook her head, and the braids on the back of her head danced together. Originally, Su Qian preferred to wear her hair loose, but because she was often busy in the kitchen and needed to wrap her hair, she gradually developed the habit of braiding.

Wearing this little ponytail makes Su Qian look a lot younger, at most she looks like a high school student. Having such a sweet and well-behaved little sister is really pleasant.

"It's been a long time since we've been alone, how are you and your parents doing now?" Chu Yunxuan said softly.

Su Qian smiled slightly and said, "It's very good, since I won the title of Michelin pastry chef, they have begun to accept me." Then I worked in Brother Xuan's shop for so long that they finally believed in me and changed their minds. ”

"What kind of change of mind, your nature is good, but your temperament is too weak, and it is easy to be influenced and forced by others. After living with Lin Zhi and Xiaozi for so long, are you a little stronger? Chu Yunxuan continued to ask.

Su Qian pursed her lips and pondered, "I shouldn't be as strong as Xiaozhi and Xiaozi...... But if someone forces me to do something I don't want to do, I'll have the courage to resist. Because there's an urban death covering me, hehe. ”

"That's good." Chu Yunxuan patted Su Qian's brain and said, then muttered: "It's been a long time since I've been an urban grim reaper, and after this recovery, I'll warn those criminals when I have time." ”

"It's great to meet Brother Xuan and everyone, when I first came out of it, I really didn't know what to do, I just thought about it for a day, and when I died, forget it." Su Qian said, burying her chin under her arm. Then he remembered something again, and chuckled: "But the first time I met Brother Xuan, he was really handsome, and he knocked that beast away with one punch." ”

Chu Yunxuan didn't know whether he should tell Su Qian that in fact, the death of her beastly ex-boyfriend was also disguised by him, but he felt that Su Qian should understand, after all, the urban death is that style of acting, so he had to remain silent.

"Change the medicine, right? Otherwise, Sister Xiaoya will be here in a while, let me take care of Brother Xuan to repay the favor. Su Qian picked up the Jinchuang spray on the side and smiled sweetly.

"I'm just going to thank you, and more often than not, you're behind me." Chu Yunxuan sat up from the hospital bed with a smile. (To be continued......)
