Chapter 102: The Return
Night finally fell, and in the recruit training base, Lu An also returned to the dormitory.
The dormitory was still empty, and I sat alone on the bed, and I could finally relax and be alone.
Lu An lay down with his head on his hands, contemplating in the dark.
In the hall of "Heart of Shadows", after a hard performance, Lu An was also tired.
Facing the six core members of this organization, Lu An was like an outsider, trying his best to maintain his existence, but he didn't want to break the balance in this organization.
Unlike all the other members, Lu An never cared about the organization's ability to call the wind and rain, he was guided by his father and elder brother, and naturally he only cared about his father and elder brother the most.
However, all of this is based on the fact that I can continue to exist in this organization, and I can't be so cautious all the time, otherwise how can I follow those hidden clues when I am constrained?
Do you ask directly, what kind of man was your previous king? What about the previous one?
This kind of thing is a matter of one's own family, a matter of one's father, brother and oneself, and no one can get involved in it. Lu Anning can go to great lengths, and he has to find these by himself.
Moreover, after a few months of careful observation, Lu Anxin was not completely at a loss.
This "Heart of Shadows", which is completely hidden in the online world, is a holographic virtual castle in its entirety. The high walls completely cut off the outside, and within the walls there is a vast courtyard and a towering castle, which must be vast from the outside, with countless floors and halls.
However, after passing through the long corridor, there was the Great Hall of the Organisation, which was not very wide, and a long conference table flanked by the seats of the poker players, and even with the now empty space for the supposedly alternate members, it could only squeeze about a thousand people.
If you add the fifty-two rooms lined up on both sides of the hall door, it is only a few tens of meters widening from the left and right, and if you measure the actual size, the contrast with the magnificent appearance of the castle is amazing.
Perhaps this isn't strange to the members of the Shadow Heart today, perhaps it's just the strange aesthetic hobby of the organization's founders, like the system's boring and useless sound settings.
However, Lu An didn't think so, all of this seemed extremely strange to him.
For example, when you enter through the huge clown door, there is a long corridor that records information about the playing cards. But why are there only fifty-two playing cards? Where are the kings?
Other poker cards might think that the king's information was recorded in a room that only the king could know, and who would ask a king for such a thing on suspicion of offending coveting? Naturally, they would have guessed that there must have been a king's room in the castle.
However, Lu An knew that there was none. If there is, how could Lu An let it go? He was hell-bent on seeing his father and brother again.
Of course, there may be, but Lu An hasn't discovered it yet, but if some kings don't wonder about these things at all, will this room be quietly sealed for the rest of their term?
And didn't they all say that the king had no authority to open the door, but only to close the door? However, Lu An has entered the room of the King of Hearts more than once, and there is no situation where he can't open the door at all.
Therefore, Lu An deeply suspected that after all, the members of these organizations were just old poker cards, and they had not seen the king's authority with their own eyes, who knew if they had misunderstood?
After all, no one knew that they had the authority to open the door, and didn't they still think that the king did not have the authority to open the door, but only the right to open the door? Why wouldn't the previous kings be exactly the same as themselves?
Lu An even boldly guessed that there would be countless hidden rooms in the castle of "Heart of Shadows"? There may be stairs, there may be floors, and you will be able to climb to the top of the spires that you see outside, and even look out over the walls.
It's just that I don't know where my father and brother will hide in the castle?
In the eyes of outsiders, this is purely Lu An's delusion, but Lu An is so sure, as if he is an intuition in the dark.
One day, I will smash all the hard shells of this organization, remove all the fog, and find the answers I want.
Lu An lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze, pressing his hands numbly.
After staring in the darkness for a long time, he rolled over, lay on his side facing the wall, and let out a long breath, his chaotic thoughts giving him a faint headache.
Even the rumbling stomach was subconsciously ignored by him.
Until late at night, Lu An was in a drowsy sleep, and was suddenly awakened by the knock on the door, turned his head to look at the door, but saw a huge black shadow walking into the room.
Lu An, who was in a daze, subconsciously asked in a loud voice, "Who?" ”
"Huh? Someone, I thought there was no one. ”
The lights in the dormitory room were turned on, and the dazzling light stabbed Lu An quickly covered his eyes, and after scolding loudly, he asked, "Who?" Do! ”
"Lu An, it's me, you have already returned." Seeing Lu An covering his eyes, the visitor said again: "I thought there was no one in the dormitory, I'm sorry, I'm going to close it." ”
At this time, Lu An had already heard Cham's voice, covered his eyes with one hand, and said angrily: "It's okay, I'll get used to it for a while." ”
It turned out that it was the Chammy brothers who worried Lu An today.
After a while, the sour eyes that were shaking adjusted to the light, Lu An put down the hand covering his eyes, and asked while blinking his teary eyes, "It's so late, why are you back?" ”
"I came back from the gendarmerie in the evening, but there was no passenger ship back to the base, so I was stuffed into the cargo hold of a spaceship, and they dropped me halfway to the mountains near the base, and I walked more than ten kilometers before returning to the base."
"Uh-" Lu An was a little speechless after listening to his statement.
Is this how the gendarmerie treats vetted soldiers now? How is it similar to what Chen Feiran said in the morning? When these two meet tomorrow, they will definitely have a lot of words in common.
"Since you were only released in the evening, why don't you just rest in the gendarmerie for a night like Chen Feiran, and come back tomorrow morning."
Cham touched his head and asked rhetorically, "Is it still possible to do this?" I don't know, alas, I wouldn't have been in such a hurry to come back if I had known it, I had had dinner in the gendarmerie, but after walking for two hours, I was alone and grunting with hunger. ”
As soon as the words fell, Lu An's stomach rumbled twice.
"You're hungry too! Did you also run more than a dozen kilometers today before returning to the base? Oh, I'm so hungry, should we go out and find something to eat? The kitchen should be empty by this time, so we shouldn't be caught if we go get some food. ”
Lu An smacked his lips helplessly, and went to the kitchen to steal something to eat, although it was not the first time he had done it, but every time this Chamme brother could speak openly and justifiably, he never said stealing words, only saying that he took it.
"Okay." Touching his already hungry stomach, Lu An had no choice but to give in to his body's protests.
Half an hour later, the two of them slipped back to the dormitory with bags in their arms.
"Hey, I didn't expect the food in the kitchen to be good today." Brother Chamme said with a grin.
He was already smiling from ear to ear.
And Lu An quickly took out the things, spread them on the bed, turned around and said, "Hurry up and turn off the lights, don't let people see it for a while." ”
"Hey, okay." Chamme smiled again, tapped his wrist, and darkness returned to the dormitory.
Lu An fumbled and sat down on the edge of the bed, scooped up something and threw it into his mouth and began to chew.
"By the way, Cham, how are you doing after we separated yesterday?"
"It's nothing, I was later brought to Instructor Xie, and I waited until the special service team of the gendarmerie headquarters appeared, and I was taken away by those people again. But at first they just let me rest, and when I woke up this morning, no one paid attention to me, and in the afternoon after some people asked some questions, they let me go. It was late afternoon when I came out, and they said there was a cargo ship coming in the direction of the base, so I was stuffed into the hold and sent back. ”
"Did you ask those people about Plato's crater?"
The sound of chewing on the opposite side stopped, and there was a crisp slapping sound.
"Ah, if you don't say it, I forgot it, no one has paid attention to me, and they didn't let me talk much in the afternoon, and they let me go after asking those questions, and I didn't have time to ask at all."
Lu An shook his head and sighed, "Yes, I'm worried about him in vain." Forget it, I'll ask him again when I have a chance later. ”
"Still, they said it would be easy to join the gendarmerie. As long as I have excellent results in this recruit training and pass the assessment, I can apply to join the gendarmerie. It seems that a lot of people have died in the gendarmerie this time, and they have to recruit many new ones. ”
"You're going to join the gendarmerie? Haven't you always wanted to be in the space fleet? ”
The sound of chewing on the other side paused for a moment before it sounded again, and the voice of Cham's reply came at the same time, "Hey, anyway, now that the gendarmerie has mobilized so many spaceships and ships, maybe I will also get on the ship?" ”
"The gendarmerie mobilizes ships?"
"Yes, you don't know, I secretly saw it when I came back, and the rainy sea was densely packed. And it seems that the gendarmerie everywhere is gathered, which is why the cargo ships are so busy, so I hitchhiked back. ”
"Really? I see. ”
Lu An smiled, but his face was thoughtful.
What is the gendarmerie doing here? No wonder the gendarmerie looked so incompetent yesterday. Could it be that the doll with a paralyzed face is playing a trick to get away with it? There may be a bit of a mystery behind this!
However, this moon is getting more and more chaotic.
