Chapter 12: Memories of the Old Land

"Dididi."

A message came, and Gu Feng hurriedly opened it to see.

Before, he called the staff officer, asked for a knife, and asked him to check whether Liu Jinlan had stayed at the base, the knife had been delivered before, but Liu Jinlan's news had not yet come.

When I opened the news, Aunt Liu Jinlan really did not enter the base city.

Gu Feng sat up from the sofa and rubbed his hair, looking a little anxious.

Liu Jinlan is a nurse in Room 108 of Xishan Orphanage.

He grew up in room 108 of Xishan Orphanage, during which three nurses were changed, but Liu Jinlan was the one who accompanied him the longest.

From the second grade of primary school to the graduation of junior high school, the two have been together for eight years, and Liu Jinlan has long been regarded as a relative by him.

After he went to high school, he moved out of the orphanage to work and study and become self-reliant.

But every year during the New Year's holidays, he would buy some gifts and go back to see them.

It's just that I haven't seen her for more than ten years, and my impression of Aunt Liu is a little shallow, and he didn't think of her for a while after he came back.

At this moment, the bedroom door was knocked on, and Li Xiaolu, who had just completed the second evolution, walked in radiantly.

Feeling Li Xiaolu's aura of reaching the fifth order, Gu Feng left a sentence and picked up the knife and walked out of the door.

"This is the base of Rock City, you haven't received your identity nameplate yet, Xiao Wu will take him to get the nameplate when he wakes up. I went out for some business, and there were a few soldiers in the small building next to me, and I asked them if I didn't understand. ”

Li Xiaolu, who was still smiling, suddenly felt a sense of grievance, she had just completed her evolution, not to mention that her strength had increased greatly, and even her already good appearance had marked a few points.

She originally wanted to come over and share the joy of evolution with Gu Feng, but this man didn't even look at her, and walked out of the door with a knife, she was so unbearable!

Leaving the room and walking through the courtyard, Gu Feng soon came to the door of the villa.

"Hello Mr. Kaede!" The soldiers who were standing guard at the door shouted.

"Don't be so serious, just call me Brother Feng." He turned his head to look at the man.

The information of these three people was sent by the fat man later, and the thin young man in front of him was No. 3, the youngest, 24 years old.

The ability is stealth, somewhat similar to his shadow stealth, which is actually several notches away.

Stealth can only hide the body, and the sound and qi and blood fluctuations cannot be hidden.

The other No. 1 is a stout man who is two meters and three meters tall, the only fourth-order evolutionary among the three, with the ability to become a giant, and his strength and defense are very strong.

Number 2 has a somewhat silent personality, is good at firearms, and his ability is to specialize in firearms, he is the highest rank among them, and as a major, his rank is much higher than that of his two lieutenant companions.

They only had numbers, no names, all of them were soldiers around thirty years old, and Gu Feng didn't know what kind of organization they once belonged to, but the unusual aura on their bodies made him somewhat guess.

It seemed that he found that Gu Feng was not as terrifying as he imagined, and No. 3 asked carefully, "Brother Feng, is this going to the city?" ”

"Huh?" He looked at the ordinary-looking young man quietly.

"You may not know when you first entered the base, but now that a mercenary union has been established in the city, the evolutionary who has just entered the city will automatically become a one-star mercenary. The guild issues various tasks for the Evolver to complete, and there are task points for the completion of the task. Killing monsters is an indefinite task, and as long as you provide a video or other evidence of killing monsters, the guild will give you a quest point. Mission points are not only directly related to the mercenary's star rating, but can also be spent anywhere in the city, which is much more valuable than the credits in the base. ”

"Well, these fat men have probably said that before. I'm out for some business, so you can get busy first. ”

Without continuing to delay time here, Gu Feng waved his hand and quickly disappeared into the night.

The fat man didn't have time to tell him the details of the rules of these bases, but who knew more about them than him.

In the darkness, a shadow swept over the walls of the Iwaki base.

Gu Feng, who had turned on the shadow stealth and extreme speed, had reached the speed of sound, but there was no sonic boom or other sounds, like a ghost flying on a city building.

An orphanage in Xishan District, north of Yan'an.

The noise of children on weekdays is gone, replaced by ghostly silence.

In the dark orphanage, only a faint cry could be heard in the distance, and soon, even the faint sound disappeared.

Gu Feng had been standing at the door of the orphanage for half an hour, and he was like a ghost when he turned on his stealth ability, and even the dog demons who ran by from time to time ignored the existence of this "food".

Time passed little by little, and he was a little afraid to go in.

This humble orphanage carried his entire childhood, and Aunt Liu, who accompanied him for eight years, was regarded by him as half a mother.

After breaking the lock, he had long noticed the strangeness in the courtyard, not to mention the lack of popularity, not even a dog demon who was easily disturbed by distant sounds at night and ran back and forth.

Finally, he walked into the orphanage.

Gu Feng turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, and in the bright light, the blood on the walls and the stumps on the ground silently rendered a terrifying atmosphere.

He walked gently forward, and soon made his way through the front yard to the accommodation area in the backyard.

In the center of the yard was a poplar tree whose branches and leaves were dry and dying, but now, it has not only come to life, but also jumped dozens of meters high, and the huge leaf cover covers the entire backyard.

Gu Feng stood silently under the tree, the familiar environment in front of him broke through the ten years of heavy survival experience in the last days, and made him recall some pictures from a long time ago.

"Auntie, I'm coming to see you again, I brought you some fruit."

"Oh, you kid, come on, bring some fruit!" Liu Jinlan, whose temples were a little gray, looked at the child in front of her with some excitement.

"Come, sit down, tell Auntie how you've been doing."

She took the child by the hand and sat on the chair next to the crib, her loving eyes shining on his face like the sun.

"Didn't I just finish the college entrance examination and haven't found a job yet, so I'll come to see you."

"Haha, Auntie, what's there to see. Xiaofeng, there are not many children of your age in our orphanage, and there are not many people who still remember their aunts, and they have come to see me in the past two years. Liu Jinlan took the child's hand and carefully watched the changes in the child in front of her.

Just as the two were talking, the door was suddenly opened, and a little girl ran in, raised the painting in her hand and showed off to Aunt Liu: "Auntie, look at the painting I painted today, is it good?" ”

Xu noticed that Gu Feng was observing the little girl, and Liu Jinlan explained softly: "This little girl, like you, was abandoned at the door of our orphanage. Now live in the same room you lived in before, room 108. Usually likes to draw and read.,It's a clever little girl.。 But it's a pity......"

"It's good-looking, it's as good-looking as our Xiaoxue. Our family's Xiaoxue must be a big beauty when she grows up. ”

"Auntie......" Wang Ruoxue was a little embarrassed by the praise, and she blushed.

On Liu Jinlan's side, Gu Feng was silently watching her tease the cute little girl. He took out his phone and looked at the balance of Weichat, and fell into deep thought next to him.

Half an hour later, looking at the little girl who had been coaxed to sleep, he made up his mind.

"Aunt Liu, in the past few years, I have saved some savings while working while going to school. Tell the dean that I want to adopt this child. ”

“……”

With the help of Aunt Liu, the formalities were quickly completed.

In front of the Xishan Orphanage at sunset, a boy holding a petite girl is waving vigorously.

"Aunt Liu, Xiaoxue and I will come back to see you often!"

Liu Jinlan, who was already showing a little old body, leaned in front of the orphanage, wiped the tears in her eyes, and waved her hand silently.
