Chapter 297: Orphan, Ah Jin! (2-in-1)
Under the dim street lamp, Ji Guoyuan strolled alone through the streets of the Moorish Kingdom.
Relying on the bear's ability to spy on the memories of so many people for many days in a row, even people like Ji Guoyuan felt a little exhausted.
Taking advantage of the night, Ji Guoyuan also wants to take a walk to relieve the fatigue accumulated these days.
Most of the princes and nobles of the Moorish kingdom have been tried these days, and there will inevitably be a brief power vacuum in the country. The social environment of the Moorish kingdom also saw some turmoil, and the navy imposed a curfew until all the state administrations were officially restored.
The evening breeze carried a hint of coolness blowing back and forth on the street, and there were no pedestrians on the road at all, Ji Guoyuan went up the slope of the mountain city, walked for a long time, and finally stopped in a clearing, stopping to look at the dark sea in the distance.
Dark clouds floated in the sky, obscuring the bright moonlight and the sea of stars.
"Even a place like the East China Sea has such a sin lurking."
"How many places like this one are there in the sea?"
"Can 800 years of domination, deep-seated ideas be completely reversed in just a few decades?"
"To the best of my life, my ideal world, I'm afraid there is still no way to come to this world!"
As the night deepened, many thoughts could not help but appear in Ji Guoyuanyi's mind. This sea is too vast, the world is too big, and there are too many countries in the world, and the hidden problems are simply too many to count.
The power of the individual is too small in the face of such a deformed world.
It is only now that Ji Guoyuan Yi faintly understands why Roger, a person who has never been willing to hurt civilians, would choose to use his life to start the so-called "era of pirates".
Igniting human desires with wealth, the yearning for wealth, can tempt more people to go to sea to pursue Ralphdrew, although Ji Guoyuan doesn't know what is buried on Ravdrew, but Ji Guoyuan thinks that those buried things should be closely related to the world government and the Tianlong people.
It is only when the numb is awakened that the world can be saved.
Otherwise, even if Jiguo Yuanyi really has the ability to eliminate the Celestial Dragons, those princes and nobles who rule various countries will still follow the practices of the "world aristocracy" and continue the oppression.
This is an 800-year-old wave of thought, and it will not change overnight.
The sea breeze caressed Ji Guoyuanyi's cheeks, his long red hair fluttered in the wind, and after a long silence, Ji Guoyuanyi also cleaned up his mood and paced towards the naval base in the distance.
Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven.
What Ji Guoyuan can do is only to do the things at hand.
"Catch, catch the thief!!"
A scream broke the silence of the night.
Ji Guoyuan turned around, and happened to see a little boy about ten years old, in rags, holding two long breads in both hands, rushing out of the corner of the street in a panic, the boy was barefoot, running fast, while looking back in the direction where the sound came, and didn't notice Ji Guoyuan in the middle of the road at all.
"Bang!!"
In the blink of an eye, the little boy rushed to Jiguo Yuanyi's body, and after a muffled sound, his head hit Jiguoyuanyi's thigh solidly, and the huge force recoiled back to his body.
"Eh!"
The boy screamed in pain and sat down on the ground, and the two loaves of bread in his hands also fell to the ground.
Ji Guoyuan turned around, looked down slightly at the little boy in front of him who was rubbing his head, and was silent.
"Catch!!"
"Catch the thief!"
"Ho-ho."
Soon, with the sound of heavy breathing, a middle-aged man with a long stick rushed to the street, and when he saw the boy who was "stopped", he immediately stretched out his hand, and his face also showed joy:
"Haha, thief, got caught, right?"
"Look where you're running from!"
The middle-aged man pressed his steps and slowly approached the boy, and when he heard this, the little boy also quickly came back to his senses, and got up from the ground with a bone, only to see his little hand touch the back of the waist, and actually took out a small dagger, pointing at the middle-aged man who was approaching him.
"And knives?"
"Imp! Don't mess around! ”
Seeing that the boy still had a weapon in his hand, the middle-aged man with a stick stopped directly and shouted.
The boy holding the dagger had a fierce look on his face, bared his teeth, like a tiger that chose people to devour, and when he saw the middle-aged man stop, he immediately looked back at Jiguo Yuanyi, and his little head was looking back and forth between Yuanyi and the middle-aged man, his eyes were full of vigilance, and the dagger in his hand was also waving in the air, as if only in this way could he give him some confidence to fight against adults.
Seeing that Ji Guoyuan and the middle-aged man did not move, the little man also hurriedly picked up a long bread from the ground and held it in his arms, just wanted to leave, but felt a tingling pain on his thigh, and fell to the ground with a pop.
At some point, there was already an extra wound on the back of the boy's bony thigh, and the blood stained the ragged gray pants along the boy's calf and to the heel.
When he hit Ji Guoyuanyi and was knocked down, the dagger on the boy's waist had actually hurt himself, maybe because of the adrenaline secretion caused by nervousness, the boy didn't feel hurt just now, but now, the stinging pain in his leg began to become more and more intense.
"The wound is deep."
"If you don't get treatment, you'll die."
The boy was holding the dagger in one hand and the bread in the other, and there was obviously a little more panic in his eyes, and just as he was at a loss, a clear voice came into his ears.
"Huh?"
The boy waved the short dagger in his hand violently, and pointed vigilantly at Ji Guoyuanyi.
"What's your name?"
Ji Guoyuan looked at the boy, there was no resentment for the thief in his eyes, nor sympathy for the injured, it was full of blandness.
The child in front of him was as thin as a bone, the skin on his face was attached to the bones, and his eyes were deeply sunken, looking very haggard. The bare skin was covered with dirt and anger, and there was a musty smell all over the body.
The boy's body swayed slightly, barely able to stand on his feet after a stumble, the long-term hunger and the injury to his leg made him unusually weak, and at the same time, his mind began to become chaotic.
"Ah!!!h
Facing Ji Guo Yuanyi's inquiry, the boy's face was fierce, and he suddenly roared, brandishing a dagger and rushing towards Ji Guo Yuanyi.
"Little brother!!"
The middle-aged man in the distance immediately shouted loudly when he saw this sudden scene, but in the next second, the panic on his face turned into astonishment.
"Poof!"
Maybe it's because you've been starving for too long, or maybe it's because the effects of the adrenaline your body are starting to wane. The boy who rushed towards Jiguo Yuanyi with a dagger didn't get to Yuanyi's side at all, and he stumbled and fell directly to the ground.
The boy gasped, and at this time he only felt that his eyelids had become very heavy, and a second before he closed his eyes, he saw a handsome face flash in front of him.
"Uncle, I'm in the Navy."
"Leave this kid to me."
"He must have stolen your bread, and this money will be used as compensation for you."
Ji Guoyuan squatted down, tore off a corner of his body casually, and then tied it to the base of the boy's injured thigh for emergency treatment. Yuan said in one mouth, and after finishing the processing, he took out a few Bailey from his arms and threw them at the middle-aged man in the distance.
Retracting his gaze and glancing at the boy who had fallen into a coma, Ji Guoyuan picked up the two loaves of bread, and then grabbed the boy around his waist.
disappeared in front of the middle-aged man.
"Uh" The middle-aged man slipped his stick and reached out to grab the two Baileys that fell from the air, and just wanted to say "You gave too much", when he saw Ji Guoyuan disappear from his sight with the boy.
The dim light shone on the ground, shining on the pool of blood on the ground, and the blood-soaked dagger beside it.
In the early morning, the warm sunlight poured into the room and shone on the head of the bed.
The boy's eyelids move slightly.
After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at the snow-white ceiling blankly, turned his head slightly, and observed the environment he was in, and the boy found that by the window, a young man was holding a newspaper in his hand, and he was looking at it seriously in the sunlight.
"The man"
The turbulent memories flooded into his mind, and the boy suddenly woke up, and just wanted to get up, but felt a weakness in his body.
"You've been hungry for too long."
"I've lost so much blood again, and my body is very weak, so let's lie down and recuperate."
A clear voice came into the boy's ears, and when he heard this, the boy turned his head sideways, looked at the young man sitting by the windowsill, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"I'm in the navy, and it's called Jiguo Yuanyi."
"What about you? What's your name? ”
Ji Guoyuan folded the newspaper, squeezed it in his hand, and asked with a smile.
"Ah Jin."
The answer was brief, and there was a sense of weakness in Ah Jin's tone.
"Hmm."
"Ah Jin, right?"
"Don't steal anything in the future, if you're hungry, come to the Navy Canteen to eat, I'll say hello."
As soon as Guo Yuan spoke, he slowly stood up, and after saying a word to Ah Jin on the hospital bed, he was ready to leave.
However, as soon as Yuan Yi walked to the door, he noticed that Ah Jin was struggling to sit up.
"I said, you need to be quiet"
Before Ji Guoyuan finished speaking, he saw the boy sitting up from the bed, who had already stepped out of bed at this time, kneeling on the side of the bed, his little face full of determination.
"I will never forget your kindness!"
"Mr. Jikokuyi!"
As he spoke, Ah Jin bowed his head deeply towards Ji Guoyuanyi, his tone choked but firm.
Ji Guoyuan glanced sideways slightly, and said in a deep voice: "It is the problem of our navy that your children are displaced and cannot get food and clothing. ”
"Life is hard, isn't it?"
"It's going to get better and better in the future."
After Ji Guoyuan finished speaking, he pushed open the door and walked out of the ward.
In the room, Ah Jin knelt on the ground, his body twitched slightly, and after a long time, heart-rending cries filled the entire ward, squeezing the emotions for an unknown amount of time, and was completely released at this moment.
The situation in the Moore Kingdom began to gradually calm down under the control of Jiguo Yuanyi, and petty theft was greatly reduced.
Under the influence of Ah Jin, Ji Guoyuan began to recruit craftsmen to build an orphanage, with the intention of collecting all minors under the age of 16 in the country. No matter what world you are in, it is always the bottom part of the people who have the lowest ability to resist risks.
As soon as the news of the Navy's orphans spread, the rumors of the arrival of children soon filled up the temporary shelters that the Navy had built, and the number of helpless children continued to grow.
In the face of this situation, Ji Guoyuan can only increase investment.
Although the top of this country is not a person, the whole country is still relatively rich, after all, the work of slave sales can not only support the payment of heavenly gold, but also make those nobles rich.
But even so, there are still many orphans in this country.
In just a few days, the navy has taken in nearly 1,000 people.
"General."
"The management ability of our branch is limited!"
"With so many children, just providing room and board, the annual funds given to us by the headquarters are simply not enough."
"If this continues, we won't last long."
Lieutenant Colonel Rudy looked at the growing group of orphans, and found Jiguo Yuanyi with great worry.
After the first national fate they came to the East China Sea, the warship did not bring any valuables at all, so far, the construction and expenditure of the orphanage have come from the 044 branch.
This is a small branch, and the military resources are not abundant, and these days, it is to provide medical treatment for these children, and to provide food and lodging, and the materials have been greatly reduced.
"Lieutenant Colonel Rudy, report to the headquarters."
"Explain the situation on our side, and ask the headquarters to allocate some supplies for us."
"Just say I meant it."
At the time of Rudy's report, Ji Guoyuan was working on documents in his office. Hearing Rudy's report, he replied casually.
"General, I have already reported the matter here to Brigadier General Gumir, who is in charge of this area of the East China Sea."
"What the commodore means is that the naval supplies on this side of the East China Sea are all quotas, and the brother departments don't have much supplies to allocate to us."
"If you need to increase it, you have to transfer it from the headquarters."
As soon as Rudy's words fell, Ji Guoyuan raised his head slightly and looked at Rudy intently. Under the gaze of Jiguo Yuanyi, Rudy hurriedly explained:
"General, I don't want to always trouble you and ask for your opinion because of such a trivial matter."
"I thought if I could fix it, I'd fix it myself."
"Contacting Brigadier General Gumir privately is also in the hope of resolving the current predicament of the 044 branch."
"I'm so sorry!"
As he spoke, Rudy bowed deeply towards Ji Guoyuan.
To be able to sit in the position of lieutenant colonel, Rudy also relied entirely on bowing, and he was also quite sharp in some things.
The admiral sits in his own branch, and he reports to his old boss and to the brigadier general of the branch when there are things, which undoubtedly makes people feel that he Rudy is underestimating Jiguoyuanyi.
But the conscience of heaven and earth, he Rudy really doesn't have this mind.
After seeing Jiguoyuanyi's iron-blooded methods, Rudy couldn't have such an idea at all, he just wanted to be able to help Jiguoyuan share his worries and let the admiral see his role.
Who would have thought that Brigadier General Gumir would be so tough, and he, Rudy, could not help the 044 branch get supplies in the name of Jiguo Yuanyi.
In fact, this is also Rudy's own cleverness, if the request for supplies from Brigadier General Gumir was made by Ji Guoyuanyi himself, then Gumir would definitely not have any nonsense.
But Rudy
With you, a lieutenant colonel, you dare to teach a commodore to do things?
Without written instructions from superiors, and without verbal instructions from superiors, what do you want to make Brigadier General Gumir move supplies with one mouth from you, a lieutenant colonel?
"I personally contacted the headquarters, you don't have to worry about the material matters first, and focus on the construction of the orphanage."
"Have you spotted pirates in the surrounding waters recently?"
Ji Guoyuan accepted Rudy's explanation, tapped lightly on the table, and suddenly asked about the pirates.
"Nope."
"The patrol ships of Branch 044 have never found any trace of the pirates."
"It's not just us, the commanders of several naval bases near the Moore Kingdom have a good relationship with me."
"We've always had information on each other, and they haven't found any news of pirates."
"General."
"I think it's going to be very difficult for us to find pirates."
Rudy had something left unsaid.
Some time ago, Jiguoyuan's cleansing of the nobles of the Moore Kingdom was in a uproar in the East China Sea, and the entire East China Sea, but all pirates with some brains would not come forward knowing that Jiguoyuan was in the East China Sea.
The golden lion in his hand, captured Roger, and destroyed the admiral of the Hundred Beast Pirates, and no pirate wanted to touch the brow of Jiguo Yuanyi.
"Continue the search for pirates."
"If I don't get some gains, it's hard for me to stay in the East China Sea for a long time!"
Ji Guoyuan gently knocked on the table board and said to himself.
Just as Ji Guoyuan and Rudy were talking, there was a sudden knock at the door.
"Enter!"
After receiving the order, a lieutenant pushed open the door of the office, saluted Ji Guoyuan and Rudy in the office, and then reported in a somewhat nervous tone:
"Report the report!"
"Headquarters, Navy Headquarters is here."
"Yes, yes."
Before he could finish speaking, the lieutenant standing at the door was pushed away.
A young man with a shiny big back, sunglasses, a black suit, and a navy coat stood at the door.
Look at the shoulder spike, is a rear admiral.
The young man stood at the door, flicked his collar, put his feet together, looked at Ji Guoyuanyi, saluted, and then said in a loud voice: "Report!" ”
"A general of Jiguoyuan!"
"I'm the head of the Crime Investigation Division of the Navy Headquarters, Rear Admiral Tenmasa!"
"This time, I came to the 044 Navy Branch to investigate matters related to the killing of the royal family of the Moore Kingdom."
"Please also ask General Ji Guoyuan to cooperate with the investigation of our Criminal Investigation Division!"
