Lu Xin remained silent, his expression hollow.
In fact, he had sensed that teacher Lu was afraid a long time ago, but he just didn’t want to think about it.
But now that he saw the fear on her face, he still felt sad.
Even he himself could not tell if he was sad because he saw that teacher Lu was afraid of him, or if teacher Lu was already afraid but still forced herself to come over to comfort him.
He did not know why, but teacher Lu’s fear of him was even greater than the
Dean’s.
This was the question he had wanted to ask, but now …
On the lens of her left eye, some data had already popped up, showing that her mental fluctuation was very strong.
An ordinary person’s mental energy level was around 10 points. Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible to detect their own mental radiation. But when this pair of glasses had a reaction, it could only mean one thing. She was already in an extremely strong emotional fluctuation. Perhaps, if she added a little more pressure, she would collapse directly because of this …
How could he force her again?
Lu Xin tried his best to force a smile on his face, even though it might be a stiff one.
I knew it. I look quite fierce.. ‘m also scary when. ‘m angry …
He tried his best to make his voice sound calm and funny. “Look, I’ve scared you.”
“It’s … That’s right,”
Teacher Lu tried her best to play along with Lu Xin.
However, no matter how hard she tried, her smile could not return to the way it was when nothing had happened.
The two of them were trying their best to make each other feel that they were fine, but they were clumsy and embarrassed.
“Forget it …”
Lu Xin sighed and stood up slowly. He turned to Lu and said,”l have to go to work in the afternoon, so I’ll be leaving first.”
“It’s just that you might have to wash the dishes yourself …”
Teacher Lu seemed to have something to say, but in the end, she could only nod.
Lu Xin picked up the bag and slowly left the office with a heavy heart.
He raised his head slightly and saw a group of small eyes looking at him from the corridor and the classroom next to him.
The child had sharp ears and had probably heard teacher Lu’s cry.
“Brother dazhuang, what’s wrong?”
A sniffling child secretly asked the Red -Nosed child.
The Red-Nosed kid looked deeply at Lu Xin and said, “”We quarreled.”
The sniveling child was shocked and revealed a look of pleasant surprise. “Then
I have a chance?”
“You didn’t,”
The Red-Nosed kid glanced at him and said, “”You can’t even afford candy.”
Lu Xin walked past the curious gazes and whispered discussions as he made his way down the stairs slowly. When he reached the corner of the third floor, he saw a small table in front of the security guard. On the table was a plate of shredded potatoes, a salted duck egg, and a small wine glass in his hand.
He sipped slowly without even lifting his head, as if he wasn’t talking to Lu Xin.
“Don’t misunderstand, she’s not afraid of you.”
Lu Xin turned to look at the old man, nodded, and continued down the stairs.
As he walked down the street, the pale sunlight shone down on him, and Lu Xin felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
He first went to the guard Station and took out the motorcycle he had left there. He rode it all the way and wandered aimlessly on the street.
After all, the motorcycle ran on gas, so he rarely had the luxury of driving around. However, today was different. There was a period of time when he didn’t even want to save money. However, he quickly stopped at a square …
After all, the motorcycle ran on gas.
He sat on a bench in the square and slowly smoked a cigarette.
On a bench not far away, there was a very intimate couple. They were so sweet that they seemed to be stuck together.
The boy had hidden a rose in his satchel behind him, as if he was preparing to perform a magic trick.
Lu Xin looked at them with envy.
However, he soon stopped feeling envious, because he saw a third person appear between the two.
It was his younger sister. She squatted on the back of the chair and looked at the two people.
Soon, her eyes lit up, and she tore off all the Rose petals with a wicked smile.
“Dada Dada …”
The boy waved his arm exaggeratedly and stuck a bare stick into the girl’s face.
He was stunned, and the girl was also stunned.
Then, one of them got up and left angrily, while the other hurriedly chased after him, explaining non-stop. Lu Xin’s mood immediately improved.
“Sister, I didn’t get the answer I wanted.”
When his sister knelt down beside him, Lu Xin exhaled a thick cloud of smoke and whispered, ” actually, when I came to ask teacher Lu, the answer I wanted the most was that she told me that the director was actually a very good person and that those things were just my wild thoughts. But in the end, I did not get the best answer, nor the worst answer. I got the worst answer …
“So she’s so … I’m afraid.
The younger sister hugged Lu Xin’s arm and rubbed her head against it. “I’m not afraid of you.”
Lu Xin chuckled but did not expose his sister.
“Do you want to go out and play again?”
Lu Xin suddenly asked his sister with a smile after a moment of silence.
The younger sister was stunned for a moment and tilted her head to look at him in confusion.
Lu Xin lifted his head and looked outside the satellite wall. “Isn’t it a good thing that there are still people alive in the orphanage?” and according to the information, even the old principal might still be alive …
I do have. lot of questions in my heart. I want to know what happened back then, and. want to know if all the people who should die are dead … Of course, if they’re not all dead, I don’t mind letting them experience what they should experience again ..
When he said this, his expression was very calm, as if he was talking about a small matter.
However, his sister, who was holding onto Lu Xin’s arm, looked up warily at Lu Xin’s expression without even blinking.
Lu Xin fell silent for a moment, as if he felt that he was not in a good state.
After a while, a smile appeared on his face again, and he said in a very friendly manner, ” all in all, I’m actually very happy right now. Back then, the orphanage was like a big family, so everyone in the orphanage was our family. It was fine if I didn’t know before, but now that I know there’s someone alive in this family, how can I not go and see if he’s doing well? ‘
“As for the questions in my heart …”
A bright smile appeared on his face. “He should be happy to tell me when I greet him in person, right?”
His sister’s eyes gradually lit up when she heard his words.
She suddenly wrapped her arms around Lu Xin’s neck and said, “”Brother, brother, do you know?”
“Actually, we’ve been waiting for you to make this decision for a long time …”
Lu Xin burst into laughter upon hearing his sister’s words.
She looked up and saw her mother smiling at her in a high-end restaurant on the second floor next to the square.
Even his own shadow by the long chair seemed to have some abnormal movements.
A deep laugh rang out.
Normally, a family meeting should be held to discuss an important matter that required going out. However, after hearing his sister’s words, he knew that this time, the decision could be made without even waiting for a family meeting.
To do this, the first step was, of course,:He asked for leave.
Lu Xin took out his satellite phone from his bag and called Chen Jing.
Chen Jing picked up quickly and said in a calm voice, “”What is it?”
Lu Xin was in a good mood, so he greeted her with a smile, “”Good afternoon, team leader.”
.. Yes.”
Chen Jing was silent for a moment. Her voice became gentler and she said,
“”What is it?”
“This …”
Lu Xin was wondering if she was actually busy right now, but the moment she saw his call, she immediately stopped all her work to listen to what he had to say. He felt a little embarrassed in his heart. In addition to what he wanted to say, he felt even more embarrassed. He quickly came up with a draft before he said, “well, I’m calling because I want to …” I’m taking leave.”
“Leave?”
what? “Chen Jing was a little surprised. aren’t you on your routine vacation after the mission?”
“Yes, yes,”
Lu Xin had no choice but to think about it seriously and explain, “But these
few days should not be enough. I want … Please stay for a few more days.”
Chen Jing seemed to frown and said, “”A few days?”
. It’s almost the same.”
This question was difficult for Lu Xin to answer, so he could only reply, ‘”‘ It’s hard to say now.”
“What’s the matter?” Chen Jing asked after a pause.
“This …”
“It’s a private matter,” Lu Xin replied after some thought.
Listening to his brief answer, Chen Jing’s voice slowed down a little. After a while, she said,
you made a huge contribution in helping us defend against the attack of the maritime countries. According to the points, you are now a level 4 special talent in qingang. A level 4 special talent can enjoy the special treatment of qingang. So, even if it’s a personal matter, you can make a request. The special Forces will do their best to help you.
“I’m afraid that won’t do.
“It’s a personal matter. I need to leave the city to settle it,” Lu Xin heaved a sigh of relief.
“Where are we going?” Chen Jing was a little surprised. “The central city,” Lu Xin replied after a moment of thought.
the central city …
On Chen Jing’s side, there was an obvious moment of chaos and panic. It seemed that many people were making sounds of surprise.
Lu Xin was surprised to see so many people there.
After a while, Chen Jing’s voice sounded again, ” can you tell us the reason why you’re going to the central city? ‘
“This … It’s not very convenient.”
Lu Xin was too embarrassed to reject his leader, so he probed, “”After all, it’s my private matter. Can I not say it?” of course I can. I shouldn’t have asked.
Chen Jing’s reaction was very fast. She said a little apologetically, then returned to her calm working mode and said, ‘
“If you ask for leave, it can be approved in theory.”
however, you haven’t handed in the mission report yet. There are no accurate records of the corresponding changes after you entered the second phase. Also, you are now a level four special talent. According to the rules, no matter where you go or what you want to do, you should submit a paper application and the special Investigation Department will provide you with a certain level of security and information support.
“Ah, this .
Lu Xin felt that his leader’s words made sense, and he felt that his call had been too abrupt.
After a while, he whispered, “then I’ll go back and write the mission report, and then…” A supplementary application to leave the city?”
“Sure.”
Chen Jing smiled and said, “on the application materials for leaving the city, you need to tell them in general how far you need to go, the time you need to leave the city, the supplies you need to apply for, etc. Because there are still many places outside the wall in chaos. For you, who only has a short experience of leaving the city once, it is still very dangerous. So it is best to have a professional to help you make a plan or even train.
“Of course, this will also help us arrange for someone to replace you in satellite city No. 2.”
After saying all this in one breath, Chen Jing pondered for a moment,
“Oh right, other than what I’m saying now, do you need me to arrange a driver for you in advance?”
She smiled. after all, the one who was arranged last time had a lot of opinions when he came back. So this time …
We can inform him in advance..
