Volume 1 The Adept Chapter 21 Goodbye
Wen Yifan opened his eyes in a daze, and what he saw was an unfamiliar ceiling, he just remembered that he was knocked unconscious by Tan Bo, and with the clarity of his memory, he suddenly became angry, and thought: "I believe in you so much, you actually treat me like this!" Phew! β
Indeed, for a teenager who has not experienced the world, when he meets a person who is close in age and chats very well, it is natural and inevitable to regard the other party as his friend, although he is defensive and cannot fully believe it, but the other party also knows a person who is very important to him, and he should naturally be full of trust.
But for Xu Donglan, who has lived in militarized management since he was a child, and who has been up and down in the political arena for many years since he joined the WTO, they must cut off any unstable factors, although Tan Bo knows that Wen Yifan may trust him because of Chen Yuyan.
This coincides with Batman's views in the movie "Batman vs. Superman", although Superman is powerful, but he now lives on the earth and is also a person, so as a human being, there are joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and as a human personality, one day because of certain people and certain things, then it is very likely to become a threat to all mankind in the future, and Superman does not want to be controlled, so in order to cut off this unstable factor, Batman decided to kill Superman with infamy
Although both of them are superpowers, they don't have the ability to "read minds", so they don't know what Wen Yifan really thinks in his heart, they just think that this kid is very likely not to believe them, and they have to draw blood on him, which is very likely to scare him, and if he doesn't cooperate, it will be very troublesome to be noisy and noisy.
Xu Donglan was not afraid that Wen Yifan's affairs would be known by Wang Yi, because he knew that Wang Yi would always be on his side, and he was not afraid that the people inside the shadow would know, because the shadows were all his people, and this time he even assigned the task of bringing back the black household superpowers.
But this is the central location of the Alien City, the core area of the Alien City, the core area of the Alien Alliance, the bosses of the Eight Forces of the Alien Alliance and important insiders are all on this central building, just on the upper and lower floors of Xu Donglan's office, which are the offices of the two people, namely the Swallow Pigeon boss Miyamura Shouichi who is in charge of communications, and Maxwell, the hummingbird boss who is engaged in espionage.
The office of an important person like this is naturally soundproof, but Xu Donglan is probably aware of Wen Yifan's ability, and he didn't know that his ability level was only a pitiful F-level at the time, and he was afraid that he would burst out of his ability in an extremely nervous situation.
And once this matter is revealed, Xu Donglan will have to bear the pressure of public opinion like a monstrous wave, because the black household is forbidden to step into the Strange Ability City, which is the creed of the bystanders, and it is also the terrifying memory in the heart that most of the Abnormal Beings do not want to awaken.
At this point, then Wang Yi, as the chief of the Ability Alliance, naturally has to be managed, otherwise he will also face a credibility crisis, and it will be difficult for this chief position to sit firmly, coupled with the surging dark tide within the alliance, this also happens to make those who oppose him catch the handle.
Even if this matter is properly resolved, it will be difficult for Wang Yi's credibility to be restored to what it once was, this is like a leather ball, he broke a hole, and you make up for it, but it is still difficult for this ball to return to its original appearance after all.
Moreover, people are accustomed to deeply remember the wrong things that others have done, and take the right things that they have done for granted, not worth mentioning.
Wen Yifan slowly got up, his eyes gradually regained their brilliance, and first looked aroundβa dark secret room without windows, with a bed and a small desk next to the bed.
There were a lot of lights on the ceiling, but somehow only one was turned on, or the dimest yellow light bulb was turned on among the many incandescent lamps, which was not far from the scene he had woken up after the last coma.
But he didn't bother to complain about anything, "history is always strikingly similar," now he only feels very speechless, everything that happened today is too fast, he couldn't react too much, and as a result, he was "backstabbed" again, and he only felt tired, but fortunately, he slept and recovered well.
To tell the truth, Wen Yifan's true thoughts now are to find his mother to cry about his painful experience, although he has gone to junior high school, but after all, he is just a child, although his childhood experience has long made him accustomed to loneliness and pain to carry by himself, but he still hopes that someone will accompany him, although he is often alone, but every time he sees other children sharing joys, sorrows and sorrows with their parents, he will unconsciously feel sad.
"I could have endured the darkness if I hadn't seen the light."
Just as he was thinking, the wall in front of him suddenly opened slowly, and a familiar and unfamiliar figure came into view, and by the way, it brought the bright and dazzling sunlight outside, Wen Yifan felt a tingling pain in his eyes, and gradually became familiar with the light, and saw the person who came clearly - it was the shadow boss Xu Donglan who had a side of fate and made him dizzy, and he was still complaining just now.
And as the wall gradually opened, there were two men and women on the left and right sides of Xu Donglan's side, and these two people were even more familiar, they were his mother and uncle.
As the walls of the secret room were fully opened, Xu Donglan also turned on all the lights in the secret room, and the two sides saw each other completely clearly.
When Wen Yifan saw his mother clearly, the strength he pretended to be on the surface directly came to naught, and those painful memories that he thought he had forgotten came like a sandstorm.
All the pain turned into tears in this moment, although he was still strong enough to keep it in his eyes, just trying to make his mother stop worrying about him in this way.
On the other side, Xu Donglan saw Wen Yifan get up, but he was a little surprised but became expressionless and said, "Woke up so soon?" But Zhou Yunshao was not so calm, and suddenly pounced on Wen Yifan and hugged him tightly in his chest.
Wen Yifan had actually slept for a long time, and it was already the afternoon of the third day since the day he fell unconscious for the first time.
The alliance meeting was held in the afternoon of the next day, and the beast tide occurred near dusk, although there were no lights on Antarctica at night, but the gates of hell would be very bright at night, as if it was for the convenience of the supernatural, after all, most of the monsters had night vision.
Although the Alien felt that this behavior was quite stupid, it was also figured out that Warcraft was just a group of unintelligent creatures, and most researchers in the Otherworld believed that Warcraft could only open the gates of hell and come out of it, and did not have the power to control it.
After a short period of disappearance of his son, Zhou Yunshao finally let go of the hanging stone in his heart, hugged his child and sobbed, and Wen Yifan, who was about to lose control of his emotions, finally took off his disguised mask and hugged his mother tightly crying after seeing his mother crying.
The goodbye of the mother and son, but two days apart, is like a reunion for many years.
But this is actually a very normal thing, after all, for a child, the mother is basically home. It is often said that where the family is, the home is there, and the child's dependence on the mother is quite deep, let alone a boy, he must be closer to the mother.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mom is here." Zhou Yunshao gently patted Wen Yifan's head and said gently.
Seeing this situation, even Xu Donglan sighed slightly moved and regretfully.
And Zhou Mingrui seemed to see a turning point in his expression, and cautiously reminded: "Look at ......"
But before he could finish speaking, Xu Donglan didn't even look at him, and interrupted him: "It's a pity, you said that if this child grew up in Strange Energy City since he was a child, and he could still be with his parents every day, how good would it be, you said yes, Zhou, Xian, Sheng." β
The title of the last three words, Xu Donglan said very seriously, it seemed to be said to the other three people present, not only a pity, but also a sense of yin and yang.
Now, Zhou Mingrui didn't dare to speak again, in fact, he was also very annoyed in his heart, thinking that how could this shadow boss be so able to say it, and every time he said it, would he still chat, and let people not talk well!
But there is no way, the other party is one of the bosses of the Bafang forces, and he is even more difficult to say, and he has just solved a sudden beast tide, and his status in the hearts of the supernatural has been raised by a notch, so he had to smile and apologize: "What you said, what you taught is." β
Zhou Yunshao also knew that Xu Donglan was actually mentioning himself, so he quickly wiped away his tears and said solemnly to Wen Yifan: "In the future, you will be a stranger." It's Mom who is sorry for you and sealed your abilities, but now that it's here, you have to fight for all of humanity as an Adept, you know? β
"Uh-huh." Wen Yifan also quickly wiped away his tears and hurriedly agreed, he knew that his mother's ability to seal him was also for the sake of his life's safety, and he didn't want him to face the murderous demonic beasts, so he didn't bother to ask about more things.
"Because of your special status, you also know the rules of the supernatural, but fortunately, Mr. Xu is willing to take you in and let you become his disciple, learn the ability by his side, and fight against the demonic beasts, understand?"
"Uh-huh." Although he was still complaining about the shadow boss just now, since his mother said so, Wen Yifan naturally had to agree.
At this time, Xu Donglan suddenly interjected: "You study with me during the day, and I will use the spatial ability to send you home directly at night, which not only allows you to be with your parents every day, but also will not be discovered by others, and can also ensure your safety." β
As soon as these words came out, Wen Yifan suddenly looked up at Xu Donglan, his eyes lit up, as if he had found some treasure, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xu!" β
Xu Donglan smiled slightly: "In the future, you will call me master like Tan Bo." β
"Yes! Master! Wen Yifan was very well-behaved and replied obediently.
"Okay, that's it, Mr. Zhou, you take him home today, and tomorrow morning I will trouble you to bring him to my office, after all, you also have a spatial ability, and this will also prevent people with intentions from seeing it." Dr. Zhou, let's go back to work in another institute from tomorrow, Yifan, study hard tomorrow! β
Xu Donglan explained in an unquestionable tone, the kind of royal spirit revealed is not at all what an ordinary person can show, it seems that he can compete with Wang Yi, this feeling Zhou Mingrui is very familiar, he has personally felt the coercion of A-level ability, and the momentum Xu Donglan showed at this time seems to be even higher than A-level.
"Xu Donglan's strength is unfathomable." Zhou Mingrui gave a judgment in his heart.
"Yes!" Under such coercion, the three of them replied in unison for some reason.
