The night sinks like water, and everything holds its breath. The entire sea lion city seemed to be immersed in a huge cloud of inkdroplets, so black that nothing could be seen, and in the deep space, there seemed to be something indescribably weird, watching everything.

Suddenly, the space in front of me lit up.

The bright hall on the second floor is crowded with people, and on the night before the festival, even those who are financially strapped for every household show their smiling faces to welcome the return of the sun in the new year. The long winter season is finally a festival, and according to the calendar of the Butterflye continent, from this day on, the time of the day in the northern hemisphere will gradually increase, beyond the night, and the northernmost part of the continent will even remain daylight for 24 hours in a row, when the day is the longest.

In Geng Jiangyue's sight, a child held his father's hand and happily listened to his father's profound geography knowledge. Dad is wearing a handsome uniform, with a tall figure and full of spirit. Today is January 1st, which is not only the Huiyang Festival of the Bad Frye calendar, but also the birthday of children. In a few months, the six-year-old will soon be going to primary school.

Dad smiled and praised him for being smart, he will definitely be admitted to college in the future, and the life of the family will get better and better......

Buying a birthday cake and candles from Uncle McCann's grocery store, the child's eyes are full of anticipation and his mouth is watering with hunger.

The elevator was just a short distance away, and it would only take a few more moments for him to get his first taste of it.

Listen to Xiao Yuyu, a stupid child in kindergarten, say that cake is the most delicious thing in the world.

He happily took the cake from his father's hand, which was bigger than his little head, and jumped up and screamed that he was in a hurry to go back, and his mother was still waiting upstairs, and when he had eaten the cake, he should go to bed.

But at this moment, the originally bright surroundings. But suddenly it was pitch black.

The red emergency lights then turned and sirens sounded in the building. The people on the second floor were screaming and running around in panic. Even Uncle Ken hurriedly pulled down the door of the shop.

Before the child could react, he was lifted by a big hand, sandwiched under his arm, and swayed towards the upstairs. The child didn't grasp the rope in his hand, and the cake fell from his hand.

The child cried and kicked his legs, twisted his body, and shouted for the cake, but the father did not stop at all, just carried him all the way, panting, and ran ten flights of stairs for thirty sections in one go, and finally there was no way to escape......

Upstairs and downstairs, countless monsters surrounded them.

The child was put down by his father, watched his father clench his hands into fists, and recited the scriptures that his mother often recited.

"Our God in heaven is like our Father on earth. Let your will walk among men, as He walked in heaven, let your light shine into darkness as He shines on eternity, and let your power spread over the seas, as He fills the body of a servant......"

Dad read quickly, and the hundreds of six-pointed star patterns tattooed on his body also brightened. The light was so soft, kind, and bright that the transparent monsters around it didn't dare to approach.

All the light was slowly concentrated by Dad into the palm of his hand and turned into a point of light.

He took the small dot of light and nervously stuck it to the child, and the moment the dot of light melted into the child's body, he suddenly shouted: "Ah Yue!

"Dad!"

Geng Jiangyue stiffened and sat up suddenly.

In the room, there is a soft lamp.

The bedside timer, no more, no less, just 6 a.m.

The heating showed 30 degrees, which was 4 degrees higher than usual, which was very comfortable.

Geng Jiangyue's mind went blank for a while, touched his face, and replied wetly.

Then he rolled over and sat on the edge of the bed and sniffed lightly.

It turned out to be a dream......

I haven't dreamed of my dad in years.

It seems that there is too much stimulation for two consecutive days, and the things in the depths of the memory are ticked out.

He sat stupidly for about ten minutes before standing up, and walked into the bathroom with red eyes.

Brushed his teeth and washed his face, and skimmed a large strip.

The automatic sensor wall outside the window was still closed, and in mid-August, the sun began to come out noticeably later.

After washing, Geng Jiangyue sighed slightly, shook the bad memories out of his head, and then looked at the new clothes he had neatly placed at the head of the bed before going to bed last night, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

He quickly unpacked the bags of his new clothes, and put the warm clothes, pants, clothes, and socks on his body one by one. The size of the clothes is just right, tie the belt, put on the temperature-insulated military boots, there is no mirror in the room, Geng Jiangyue doesn't know how he is dressed, but compared to his previous clothes, this uniform is really comfortable to wear.

In the end, he unskillfully pinned the two rank badges on his shoulders and stuffed the non-commissioned officer card into his jacket pocket, Geng Jiangyue put on his hat, saluted the air, and whispered: "Dad, I'm awesome, right?"

After saying that, he was silent for a few seconds, then sighed slightly, turned around and was about to walk out the door.

Just as I put my hand on the doorknob, the doorbell rang.

Geng Jiangyue couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

It's so early in the morning, could it be that Wang Yaojing came with a ponytail girl to thank you?

As soon as this thought came to me, the doorbell rang twice. In what should have been a private communicator, a strange man's voice came out: "Geng Jiangyue! Open the door! We are from the Internet Supervision Office!"

What are the tolerances of the town hall?

Geng Jiangyue was so frightened that he hurriedly opened the door and squeezed out a smile very sensibly.

As soon as the door opened, the two people outside the door, who were originally very unkind, suddenly saw a non-commissioned officer uniform in front of them, and they were stunned for a moment.

Looking at Geng Jiangyue, who was dressed in a regular training uniform, the three of them were stupid at each other for a long time, and after a few seconds, the slightly older one asked blankly and politely: "Are you ...... Mr. Geng Jiangyue?"

"Yes, it's me. Geng Jiangyue replied politely, "What are you looking for me?"

"Oh...... Hello, Geng...... Sergeant, we are the network security administrators of the four districts of the Municipal Government Network Supervision Office, my internal code name is Hormone, and my job number is 1258645, you can call me Lao He. We received a system bug report yesterday, and we want to check it with you......" Lao He said with a glance, pointed to the room again, and asked softly, "Can we go in and talk?"

Geng Jiangyue reacted at this time, and hurriedly said: "Oh! please come in! please come in!"

Geng Jiangyue's residence was already very small, and when two people outside the house walked into the house, it suddenly became even more crowded.

"Sit on the bed. Geng Jiangyue said in a pretty good mood at this time.

The two of them said sorry, and after Lao He sat down on the edge of the bed, he asked with a smile, "How can Sergeant Geng live here?"

Geng Jiangyue said very frankly: "I only joined the army last night, and I have been living here before. ”

"No wonder ......" Lao He doesn't doubt him, the population management of Sea Lion City is extremely strict, not to mention forging an identity, even if you want to secretly settle in the city, the possibility is basically zero. Moreover, pretending to be a soldier is a very serious crime, and if you are caught, there is basically no way to live.

Not to mention, the outfit on Geng Jiangyue's body is not an ordinary soldier's uniform, but a non-commissioned officer's uniform.

The non-commissioned officer uniform, no matter how widespread it is, is by no means something that ordinary people can get their hands on.

"Sergeant Geng made a meritorious service last night?" Lao He, who is obviously very old, told the truth in one sentence.

Geng Jiangyue nodded with a smile, restrained his impulse to pretend to be forced, and said modestly: "It's just a trivial little thing." ”

Lao He laughed and said: "Sergeant Geng only joined the army last night, and the trivial things will not be promoted to the fifth level in a row, right? Let's quickly solve the problem of network error. Please log in to the game first, and we will go online to deal with it. ”

As he spoke, he took out a portable phone from his pocket and put it on.

The young man next to him, who didn't talk much, also put on glasses.

Geng Jiangyue hurriedly sat down on the game chair and put on his game helmet.

The iris is swept by the sensor.

The signal is instantaneous.

【Scan to confirm identity ......】

[Geng Jiangyue, game number HS301801010111......]

[Status: Signal is connecting normally......]

[Status: The monthly game fee has been paid......]

[Status: 110 points ...... unextracted]

Geng Jiangyue glanced at it, but suddenly felt a little wrong.

Isn't your own number HS301801014816?

The last four digits don't seem right......
