Chapter 23: Old Man

It is a very chic garden, lush and full of evergreen trees in all seasons. In terms of the weather in April in the northwest, it is really rare. Even the 49th base, which has done a very good job of greening, can't see much green in this month.

At the entrance to the garden stood two heavily armed guards, constantly scanning the surroundings with a pair of scrutinizing eyes, looking very out of place here.

The special A unit is the unit with the highest standard in the country, the 49th district is the place where the special A unit is responsible for training and transporting talents, and the A area is the most special living area for the special A unit. Here, any illegal and criminal activities in society are impossible, and certainly impossible.

As for trivial disputes, they are common, but disputes will never turn into evil ** such as vendettas. Because this is a special A unit, the people who live here are not bound by the law, but are subject to the discipline of rules and regulations.

Compared with the law, the rules and regulations of the armed forces are undoubtedly more binding. This binding force encompasses the law, and the power of the Special Armor Category is unbounded in the belief of loyalty.

So these two guards with guns are particularly eye-catching, but on the other hand, you can see the incomparable importance of the people in the garden.

"Stop!" A guard stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Yuanchao, who wanted to go inside, and said with a tiger face: "Don't you know what kind of place this is?" ”

This is definitely the most special place in Area A, and even in Base 49, because there is not a single guard anywhere else except for the guards here.

Xiao Yuanchao blinked his eyes and said innocently: "There is an old man who plays Tai Chi inside, I'll look for him." ”

"You?" The sentry looked at Xiao Yuanchao with some puzzlement, looking up and down.

It's a child, not a threat in any way. It's just that when will such a child appear in Zone A? A child of this age should go to school in Zone D.

"What's the matter?" A voice came from the garden.

The voice is full of breath and very loud, but it can't hide the old age brought by time.

Hearing the voice, the guard immediately turned to face the garden and said loudly: "Report to the chief, a child said he was looking for you." ”

"Kid? Let him in. ”

"Yes!"

When the guards received the order, they immediately waved their hands and let them go, signaling Xiao Yuanchao to enter the garden.

Walking into the garden, Xiao Yuanchao found that this garden was very strange, it looked like there were many plants, but it was really difficult to catch if it was hide and seek. This is an intuition, and Xiao Yuanchao is thinking about where it is best to hide and seek if he plays hide and seek here.

"Hehe, little friend, come on, come to grandpa, hehehe......" In the garden, an old man wearing a practice uniform and with a white beard and a kind smile on his face recruited Xiao Yuanchao to his side.

It can be seen that he seems to be very fond of Xiao Yuanchao. Even the two guards were puzzled, because the old man did not do this to his own grandson except for such an expression to his granddaughter.

"Hello grandpa!" Xiao Yuanchao greeted the old man very politely.

"Hehehe, okay, your name is Xiao Yuanchao, right?" The old man took Xiao Yuanchao's hand, squatted down and looked at Xiao Yuanchao left and left, and kept nodding.

For this kind old man, Xiao Yuanchao has a particularly warm feeling. This kind of warmth is strange, and it is completely different from the feeling of being dependent on my mother's arms.

The old man's beard is so long, if only he could pull it......

If anyone knew what Xiao Yuanchao was thinking at this time, they would definitely give this kid a thumbs up: Awesome! Even the old man's beard wants to pull it!

"My name is Xiao Yuanchao, grandpa, how do you know my name?" Xiao Yuanchao stared at the old man's white beard that was about to hang down to his chest, and his palms were itchy.

"Are you looking at my beard?" The old man clearly captured Xiao Yuanchao's eyes.

Xiao Yuanchao nodded.

"Do you want to pinch it?" The old man asked suddenly, and brought his beard over.

"Yes, but I can't." Xiao Yuanchao shook his head and said: "The teacher taught us to respect the old and love the young, and to be a good child who knows how to be polite." ”

"It's okay, grandpa asked you to pull it, hehe." The old man seemed to be a little impatient.

"Really?" Xiao Yuanchao's eyes lit up.

"Really!" The old man nodded affirmatively.

As he nodded, his beard fluttered up and down, making Xiao Yuanchao's hands itch even more. He gently and slowly stretched out his little hand and tugged at the old man's white beard.

"Hahahaha......" The old man laughed, picked up Xiao Yuanchao, and said happily: "Xiao Yuanchao, you pulled my beard, someone will find you desperately, hahaha." ”

"But I've already done it, and I can't do anything about it, besides, if you become a soldier, you have to die, I'm not afraid of death."

"Well, if you are a soldier, you have to die! I've lived my whole life, and it's the first time I've heard that, good! Good! Good! ”

Three good in a row, so that the guards kept looking sideways. They really couldn't figure out how this child could be so happy with the old man, if they remembered correctly, this child appeared in front of the old man for the first time, and the old man saw this child for the first time.

"Grandpa asks you a question," the old man sat in the pavilion with Xiao Yuanchao in his arms, and asked kindly, "What is your greatest wish?" ”

When he asked this sentence, the old man's eyes began to become extremely sharp. It seems that this question is related to Xiao Yuanchao's future, and he will decide the fate of this child according to Xiao Yuanchao's answer.

"Can I say two?" Xiao Yuanchao asked with a wink.

"Yes, say as much as you want, hehe." The old man touched Xiao Yuanchao's head dotingly.

"The first one is to protect Du Baobao, Du Bao was beaten by Xing Zhengrong last time, but I can't beat Xing Zhengrong." Xiao Yuanchao's eyes were full of guilt.

"Why?" The old man asked.

"Because the baby is my friend!" Xiao Yuanchao replied.

"Your friend?" The old man thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, the reason why you were eliminated is entirely because of Du Baobao." You don't hate her? And think of her as a friend? ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanchao became anxious and argued loudly: "It's not like that, it's not like that, I was eliminated because I was too stupid." Du Bao Bao is my good friend, when I am dying, Du Bao gives me the blood on his body! She just likes to pout, and I'm actually a good friend of hers. Little girls love face, and they all blame me for being too stupid! ”

The old man's mouth was almost crooked, how to look at Xiao Yuanchao's eyes.

"What about the second wish?" The old man asked. (http://)。

"I hope my dad doesn't beat me to death." A touch of fear appeared on Xiao Yuanchao's face, and he asked in a low voice: "Grandpa, if you become a soldier, you have to die, but why hasn't my father died?" My brothers are dead, but my father is not dead, are you staying to kill me? ”

The old man smiled dumbly, he couldn't understand why this child was so afraid of his father, and he couldn't understand how the child's father left such a deep shadow on the child.

"Both wishes will come true, they will come true." The old man smiled and said, "Xiao Yuanchao, let's play hide and seek?" ”

Hearing the word hide and seek, Xiao Yuanchao immediately came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Okay! Okay! Where are we going to hide and seek? ”

"It's in this garden."

"Good!"

"You hide first, I'll find it, hehe."

"Okay, grandpa, then you have to close your eyes and count dozens of them."

"Okay, dozens of numbers, hehe...... One, two, three......"

An old man and a young man began to play hide and seek, and they had a lot of fun.

In the two-story building connected to the garden, a woman in her thirties and forties looked at this scene with a frown, her face showing a deep dissatisfaction, and her eyes were full of disgust when she looked at Xiao Yuanchao. But this expression didn't stay long, and in an instant, it changed into a capable and beautiful appearance.

She took out her mobile phone and dialed a number, and said into the phone: "Du Zhenhua, immediately arrange for me to meet the baby, that is my daughter, a piece of meat that fell from my body, I have the right to see my daughter." Don't talk to me about discipline, the eliminated kid is still with you, so don't tell me about yours! ”

Hanging up the phone, the woman's eyes looked at Xiao Yuanchao again, looking uncertain.
