Chapter 552: The Truth Once Upon a Time on
When talking to Yue Zhanfei, Wu Qi couldn't help but think of Wang Sheng. The one who invited him to join the Black Gun Mercenary Regiment, thus beginning his subsequent journey into the wilderness.
With such a good captain, it is no wonder that Xiao Kui, Lu Junjun, and Pi Chunsheng will affectionately call him Brother Fei, and always trust him and obey his decisions.
"Thank you, Captain Yue, for teaching me this, but I have no plans to re-lead an investigation team." Wu Qi said.
Yue Zhanfei blinked his eyes and said, "Why? ”
"Because my teammates are all here," Wu Qi said calmly, "I just need to be able to act with my teammates, and I think the members of the No. 7 investigation team are very good, and Captain Yue is also a rare good captain." ”
"Hey, I'm average, not as good as you say." Yue Zhanfei said with a grin. He talks about a modest set, but in fact, he doesn't want to mention how useful it is in his heart.
"By the way, Captain Yue, how is Lu Junjun's recovery? Is she awake? Wu Qi suddenly remembered this and asked with concern.
Yue Zhanfei's expression became a little stiff, and he forced a smile on his face: "I haven't woken up yet, but it's okay." As the saying goes, I have never seen someone as big as Lu Junjun, so she will definitely wake up when she rests. ”
Wu Qi sensed something through Yue Zhanfei's micro-expression, he didn't say anything, but just responded: "That's good." ”
The crowd returned to the parking spot on the edge of Noah's City and split into two groups. A group of Gao Yuan, Guo Bobai and other people who do not need to be promoted to the rank of soldiers, a wave of Yue Zhanfei and Wu Qi two people who can be promoted to the rank of soldiers. The two groups of people acted separately, Gao Yuan and they went back to the city to do their own thing, while Wu Qi took Yue Zhanfei's car and went to the Supreme Command Building.
Wu Qi and Yue Zhanfei registered and promoted together in the Supreme Command Building, and said goodbye after receiving the new badge. When Wu Qi walked in the fountain square outside the Supreme Command Building, Ruo Ying's voice suddenly sounded in his head.
"Archie, do you have time?"
Wu Qi realized that Ruoying was using a "spiritual link" to talk to him, so he imagined something to tell the other party in his mind.
"I have, and you're empty?"
"Well, we just had a conversation."
The last sentence came from the air, and as soon as Wu Qi turned around, he saw Ruoying behind him.
Ruoying did not wear the heroic general's military uniform and cloak this time, she wore a blue and white silk dress with a bow tied at the chest, and a wide straw sunhat on top of her long chestnut hair that was as smooth as a waterfall; Snow-white slender legs were exposed beyond the hem of the dress, and a pair of high heels as white as snow-capped mountains were stepped on.
She wore a fresh, sunny outfit with a straw hat on top to shield her from the scorching sun and half of her stunning face and signature long maroon hair.
Wu Qi looked Ruoying up and down, and felt from the bottom of his heart that Sister Ruoying was as beautiful as a fairy, more moving than all the women in the world, and it was manifested on her face that her eyes were slightly wide and she couldn't take her eyes off her.
Ruo Ying's lips rose and she smiled softly. How could she not see through Wu Qi's thoughts in her heart, let alone show it on his face without concealment.
"Let's go?" Ruoying reminded.
Wu Qi came back to his senses, he walked to Ruoying's side and walked out side by side with her.
"Sister, how are you dressed today......
"You can't wear such a conspicuous general's cape, can you? And now it's my time off, I'm only going to act with Archie, and no one wants to find me and bother me. ”
Wu Qi was happy in his heart, and he said, "Sister, you are too charming." ”
"I said Archie, you don't say this kind of thing to your sister and more to your woman." Ruoying teased.
"Huh."
Wu Qi and Ruo Ying walked outside the perimeter of the Supreme Command Building and began to shop and chat in Noah City as they pleased. Ruoying was quite interested in Wu Qi's growth process after she left, and asked Wu Qi to tell herself; Wu Qi naturally opened the conversation, not thinking that he was talking too much at all, and described his experience to Ruoying along the way.
Along the way, there are many people and things encountered, thrilling battles that always lead to victory in the end.
Ruoying smiled sideways, listened quietly, occasionally interjected two sentences, and slowly understood Wu Qi's growth; Her thoughts seemed to follow the "protagonist" in Wu Qi's story, witnessing his ups and downs for nearly a year, alternating with darkness and dawn.
The two gradually walked to the shore of the artificial lake, and took a boat docked on the shore to the island in the middle of the lake. There is a small shop in the middle of the lake that sells fine food. With the sparkling lake and lush green island scenery, Wu Qi and Ruoying sat at the open-air table under the blue parasol, talking, laughing and enjoying lunch, just like ordinary sisters and brothers traveling together in the era of civilization.
Wu Qi's story is over, Ruoying takes the glass of the iced drink and shakes with the waves, and toasts to Wu Qi.
"Archie, you have really grown up, and you have grown to be a reliable man who can not only take charge of himself, but also protect the important people around him." Ruoying said. There was a smile of relief in her blue eyes.
Sister Ruoying, who used to train herself harshly in an almost devilish way, now gives herself praise and recognition without hesitation, and Wu Qi is extremely happy in his heart. At the same time, Wu Qi's mentality is also very stable, and he will not neglect his future training and fighting opportunities because he is affirmed by Sister Ruoying.
"Sister, I will become stronger in the future, and one day I will be like General Hicks, strong enough to solve problems for you and share the pressure." Wu Qi said seriously.
"Archie, of course you're happy to have this heart, but don't work too hard. Strength is such a thing, no matter how much you improve, it will not be enough. Talent, hard work, environment, luck, and time are all the driving factors or stumbling blocks that everyone will encounter to enhance themselves, and comparing with others will magnify the impact of these factors on themselves. It only took you a year to ascend from the peak of a first-order life to the level of a third-order life, which is too fast, you need to slow down and settle down. ”
Wu Qi nodded: "I will definitely listen to my sister." ”
"All in all, just let it be. With your current level, my sister can only give you a little advice, and she won't help you much else. Ruoying said from the heart. This is indeed the case.
ended this topic, and the curiosity hidden at the other end of Wu Qi's heart. Hope came flooding up. He had a lot of questions hidden in his heart for a long time, and his desire to see Ruoying again also contained the idea of getting answers to these questions.
"Sister, I'm going to start asking you questions next, there are a lot of questions." Wu Qi said word by word. The relaxed mood he had been in since his departure began to tense, and the heart in his chest began to beat faster.
Ruoying's blue eyes were filled with calm and undulating emotions like the tide of the sea, and she said, "If you ask, I will answer." ”
"Why did you leave me in the first place?"
Ruoying replied without a trace of hesitation: "For you to grow better." ”
"Why did I stay in that mountain field when I can remember?"
"Because I brought you there."
"Is it from Shinjing?"
When Wu Qi asked this question, Ruoying's eyes moved.
"Yes."
"In other words, I am from Xinjing, and Sister Ruoying, you used to be a high-ranking figure in Xinjing, and you were also called an SSS-level felony by the Supreme Third Hospital."
If Ruoying hadn't probed Wu Qi's heart when Wu Qi mentioned the words "Xinjing", then when Wu Qi asked this question, she would have been surprised even if she was prepared.
"You've really learned a lot along the way." Ruoying said with emotion. After all, Wu Qi spent all his energy looking for himself, and it was not impossible to capture the clues left by the incident back then
"Sister Ruoying, 9 years ago, it should be said that it was nearly 10 years ago, what was your identity at that time?" Wu Qi finally threw out this extremely heavy question.
Ruoying's gaze turned slightly downward, staring at the transparent "ocean" in the middle of the glass.
"I used to ...... A general subordinate to the Supreme Court of the Third Court. ”
Really.
Wu Qi was not surprised by this answer. If Sister Ying is a fourth-order pioneer, guessing what the identity of a rare powerhouse in the world will be, in fact, there is only a small range.
"Then why were you hunted down by the Supreme Third Court? What is the connection between this incident and the departure from Xinjing? ”
Wu Qi felt his mouth dry inexplicably, obviously he had just taken a sip of a cold drink 20 seconds ago. His heart was beating very fast now, as if he was in the middle of a fierce battle.
Ruoying hesitated, she didn't quickly answer Wu Qi's question. On that beautiful face, there was a "I don't know what to do" that had disappeared before.
"Sister Ruoying, this is the ultimate question, I really want to know the truth about the incident where you were hunted down 10 years ago. I don't even dare to think about this until I meet you again......" Wu Qi clenched his right hand into a fist, pouring the power of all his thoughts into his hand.
Ruoying raised her eyes to look at Wu Qi's face with pursed lips, she felt unbearable, but she couldn't refuse Wu Qi's wish.
"Archie, think about it again. My sister won't lie to you, knowing that this matter won't be good for you......" Ruo Ying's words didn't have much confidence, and she seemed to know that it was impossible to convince Wu Qi like this.
Wu Qi's eyes were blazing, and his answer was in his eyes.
Ruoying finally gave up. She let out a sigh of relief and spat out the truth of this ultimate question that Wu Qi had waited so long that he didn't even dare to think about it.
"To save you, Archie. My sister wants to save you before the Supreme Court poisons you, so she disobeys military orders, betrays my teachers and friends, and fights against my colleagues. ”
