Lin Qiye stepped on the thick snow and pushed open the door of the courtyard.

The rich aroma of food mixed with the lively shouting came from the courtyard, and the distant sunlight gradually dimmed, and the orange sunset began to climb into the blue sky.

"Coming back?"

Shen Qingzhu, who was leaning against the wall and smoking, smiled slightly when he saw Lin Qiye coming back.

"Hmm."

"All sorts of things are done?"

"It's all over." Lin Qiye stood at the door, feeling the relaxed and joyful atmosphere in the courtyard, and rarely stretched his waist, "Although the process is a little tortuous, the result is very satisfying." ”

"That's good."

Shen Qingzhu naturally took out a cigarette from his arms and handed it to Lin Qiye, "Try it?" ”

Before the words fell, Shen Qingzhu shook his head and took back the hand that handed the cigarette, "Forget it, it's not good for your health." ”

Lin Qiye smiled, passed by his side, and patted him on the shoulder, "When you need it in the future, I will ask you for it." ”

He walked straight into the courtyard.

"Instructor Lin!"

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Li Zhenzhen held a white cat and trotted out of the room.

The white cat in her arms was bandaged and had one foot bandaged, and her movement seemed to be a little inconvenient, so she could only be held in Li Zhenzhen's arms, letting the delicate and warm palm caress his hair, and her eyes showed a little embarrassment.

It turned its head slightly, as if it was a little embarrassed to look at Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye looked at Li Zhenzhen, and then at the white cat with red cheeks in her arms, and raised her eyebrows.

"Instructor Lin, are you alright? Do I need treatment? Li Zhenzhen asked worriedly, "What happened to those 'mysteries'?" And Ding Chongfeng, they ......"

"The 'mysterious' matter has been resolved, and after Ding Chongfeng and the three of them knew that you were fine, they went down the mountain to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." Lin Qiye touched her head and said with a smile, "You still have some confidence in the instructor." ”

"It's worthy of Instructor Lin."

"Fang Mo, how are you recovering?" Lin Qiye's eyes fell on the white cat in her arms, and with a smile on her face, she took the initiative to speak.

The white cat's body shook slightly.

"Already, it's all right, Lord Seven Nights." The white cat Fang Mo looked embarrassed and replied stubbornly.

"Huh? Can this cat talk? ”

Zhang Zhengting, who was busy preparing food on the side, stepped forward in surprise, wiped his hands on his apron, and asked Li Zhenzhen curiously:

"Really, this is ......"

"Oh, this is my classmate." Li Zhenzhen grabbed the injured paw of the white cat, waved it lightly, and said with a smile, "It's injured, it can only become like this, and it's a little inconvenient to move......

It seems that he can only stay in our house for the New Year. ”

"Classmates?" Zhang Zhengting's expression became subtle, "Male classmates and female classmates? ”

"Male classmate."

"Oh......"

The corners of Zhang Zhengting's mouth twitched slightly, glanced at the white cat Fang Mo, and didn't say anything, just said quietly, "Then stay and celebrate the New Year together." ”

Fang Mo: (ー_ー)

Just as a few people were chatting, the door of the courtyard was pushed open again, and everyone turned their heads to look at each other, slightly stunned.

Standing at the door was an unfamiliar face in leather boots and a military coat.

He stood in the doorway, looked around, pulled his hands out of his pockets, and seemed to be a little overwhelmed and cramped:

"That...... It was Captain Shao who asked me to come to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. ”

Zhang Zhengting and the others glanced at each other, as if they had thought of something, and a look of surprise appeared in their eyes.

"Chen Han, let's sit here together." Lin Qiye saw his embarrassment, smiled and stretched out his hand, patting the seat next to him, "The meal will be ready immediately." ”

"Oh! Good. ”

Chen Hanru was pardoned and walked quickly to Lin Qiye's side.

"Hello, my name is Zhang Zhengting, and I am a member of the 006 team." Zhang Zhengting took the initiative to stretch out his hand.

"Hello, my name is Chen Han."

"My name is Yuan Gang, and I'm the vice captain here."

"My name is Land Rover......"

Everyone enthusiastically shook hands with Chen Han and introduced.

After all the entertainment, Chen Han relaxed and sat beside Lin Qiye, and the other team members went to busy Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, only the two of them sat in the empty corridor, quietly admiring the snow scene.

"The environment here is really good." Chen Han looked around and couldn't help but sigh.

"Compared to your Anta County Forest Ranger Bureau, it is indeed much more comfortable to live in."

"No, that's not what I'm talking about." Chen Han shook his head, stretched out his hand, and pointed to the scattered snowflakes in the sky, "I like the snow here, the quietness here, I have been in Anta County for a long time, and I am not used to the fast-paced city life." ”

"Anyway, if you like it." Lin Qiye turned his head to look at him, "After all, you may have to live here for a long time. ”

Chen Han was silent for a moment and sighed.

"To be honest, I still haven't figured out what the hell is going on, it was going to fail, and as soon as the demon ape appeared, the situation was inexplicably back on track......

You say, is there really a 'mystery' in this world that is on the side of humans? ”

"Perhaps."

Lin Qiye smiled mysteriously.

Just as the two were chatting, Li Zhenzhen hugged the white cat, walked around the yard, and walked in front of Lin Qiye and Chen Han.

"Uncle Chen, have you seen my Uncle Shao?" She couldn't help but ask.

"I see."

"Did he say when he would be back?"

"He said that if everything goes well, he should be able to rush back for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." Chen Han glanced at the sky and said suspiciously, "It stands to reason that it should be almost there......"

Suddenly, Lin Qiye seemed to sense something, raised his head slightly and looked into the distance, falling into silence.

……

Outside the quadrangle.

Shao Pingge wore a dark red cloak, stepped on the snow, and walked towards the gate.

Suddenly, the phone in his arms rang, Shao Pingge was stunned, and after hesitating for a moment, he still took out his mobile phone.

"Hello?"

"Happy New Year, Pingge."

"You too, Commander Zuo." Shao Pingge smiled helplessly, "Call me at this time, it shouldn't be just to wish me a happy New Year, right?" ”

“…… Well. ”

Zuo Qing on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, but still said, "Today, the two passes on the northwest border have detected the fluctuation of the invasion of alien creatures, but after careful investigation, they have found no signs of the entry of foreign gods.

I'm worried that those outer gods will take advantage of our New Year to make some small moves, just in case they ......"

"I see." Shao Pingge nodded, "I'll go to the front line now, sit in the pass, and lay a dreamnet to prevent anything else from getting in." ”

"Good work."

"It should."

Shao Pingge hung up the phone and stood silently in front of the vermilion gate of the courtyard.

The familiar aroma of food, mixed with laughter, wafted out from behind the door, and Shao Pingge stood alone in the snow, wearing a dark red cloak, fluttering slightly in the wind.

I don't know how long it took, he sighed, moved his steps, full of regret and reluctance, and turned to leave.

Squeak ——!

He had barely taken two steps when the vermilion gate behind him was gently pushed open.

Shao Pingge was stunned.

He turned his head and saw Lin Qiye standing quietly in front of the door, looking at him with a smile.

"Happy New Year, Captain Shao." Lin Qiye paused and added,

“…… Have a safe trip. ”
