The supper prepared by the guard Hall was very sumptuous. There was a fat and juicy steak, a whole chicken roasted golden and soft, and large slices of sausages. In addition, there were two small bowls of wonton wrapped in small pieces, as well as a few side dishes that were marinated very well.
At the special request of the lizard, they also prepared a few bottles of beer for each of them.
Due to the short shelf life of beer, after the catastrophe, beer had become rarer than white wine.
Most of the drunkards in the satellite cities could only rely on the low-quality white wine brought back by the wasteland reclaimers or produced in small workshops to survive. Fortunately, the beer and liquor production line in qingang had been restored in the main city. Some good white spirits could already be produced, and beer was supplied to the market in large quantities. Some were even traded to some forces outside the city.
Of course, even so, being able to drink fresh beer in the satellite town was considered a luxury.
“I have to go home today.”
Lu Xin said to the lizard after they had finished their supper.
Before his mother left, she told him that she wanted to have a family meeting. Lu Xin had already agreed to it, and he felt that this meeting was very important.
Moreover, he actually had some things he wanted to say.
Hearing Lu Xin’s suggestion, the lizard’s expression changed slightly. It seemed that it didn’t want Lu Xin to leave.
Lu Xin guessed that Gecko had received an order from someone to stay in the guard Station.
However, facing Lu Xin’s calm gaze, the lizard did not stop him. Instead, it changed its tone and said, “”If you want to go back, then go back.”
“We’ve made such a great contribution this time. Do you think we’ll be tied down here?”
“How about I go back with you?”
As he spoke, he laughed heartily and said, “”I’ve wanted to visit your house since last time,”
“This …
Lu Xin looked at the lizard helplessly and said seriously, “”What’s wrong with being alive?”
“What?”
The lizard was stunned.
Lu Xin saw his stiff expression and quickly apologized, “”l’m just joking with you …”
“Hahaha . ..”
The lizard chuckled perfunctorily before turning to Lu Xin with a serious expression. “Don’t make such jokes in the future. It’s quite scary.” “You know, I’m the most serious person, and I never joke with anyone.”
“Alright,” he said.
Lu Xin nodded and said, “”But I won’t invite you to my house this time. You can help me with my duty here. If there’s anything, you can call me. It shouldn’t take too long for me to rush back to take your place.”
“In that case …”
Hearing this, the lizard could only nod and say,”Sure, you can go.”
Lu Xin packed up his things and left the guard Station.
He had planned to take the subway, but it was already so late, so the subway must have stopped. He also saw that the Jeep that sent him and the lizard was still parked at the door, so he went straight out, opened the door, and got in.
After his sister sat down next to him, he said to the driver in the driver’s seat, Send me to the moon platform.”
The driver was a man of few words, around forty years of age. He was the one who had picked up lizard and Lu Xin after the last mission. It was clear that his duty was to serve aptitude users during critical moments like this.
The driver didn’t say much. He just nodded and started the engine.
After the Jeep started moving, Lu Xin noticed a few police officers rushing out of the guard Station. One of them was the staff member in the thick protective suit. They looked at the Jeep anxiously, but they did not stop it.
However, as the Jeep drove to the next intersection, the lights of a few cars behind it quickly lit up.
It was late at night, close to dawn, and because of the chaos in the city, there were very few cars on the road.
That was why the cars were so eye-catching.
Regardless of whether they tried to hide it or not, he could tell at a glance that they were following him.
Even in the depths of the surrounding dark buildings, there seemed to be a few pairs of eyes looking at him.
Lu Xin sat quietly in the back seat with his head lowered.
The younger sister was lying next to Lu Xin, her face pressed against the glass window as she stared into the darkness.
If someone was looking at him through a telescope or some other device, Lu
Xin felt that they would not know that there was a strange girl looking at them
from beside him.
He sighed.
He could understand some people’s curiosity and wariness of him at this time, but he didn’t like to be stared at.
Furthermore, Lu Xin was planning to have a family meeting at home. He had no idea how far these people would be following or monitoring him. If he crossed the line, would it anger his father, who was already in a bad mood?
So, after thinking for a while, he took out his satellite phone and made a call.
Chen Jing quickly picked it up, and her voice was as usual, very capable and experienced, “”What is it?” the things in the satellite town are almost settled …
“I’m planning to make a trip home,” Lu Xin said slowly.
then we’ll just go back, ” Chen Jing said. you don’t have to report this kind of thing to me.
but there are a lot of people following me. I don’t like it, ” Lu Xin replied after a moment of silence.
Chen Jing was obviously silent for a while before she said, ‘ I understand. Let me make the arrangements.
After the call ended, Lu Xin sat quietly in the back seat and waited.
The chauffeur glanced at Lu Xin through the rearview mirror, not expecting him to use such a method to solve the problem of being followed.
He did not know what kind of arrangement Chen Jing had made, but the few cars behind the Jeep quickly turned around.
The feeling of being watched by a few hidden gazes had disappeared.
This made Lu Xin believe that the people who had been sent to follow him had indeed been withdrawn.
The satellite phone rang. After the call was connected, Chen Jing calmly said, ‘ the people following you weren’t arranged by the headquarters, but I’ve already asked them to withdraw. You don’t have to worry about these things for the time being, and you can even … Steady your hand .
“Haven’t you seen a woman’s intestines before?”
Just as Lu Xin was about to agree, he was interrupted by Chen Jing’s sudden question. He asked, “”What are you doing?”
“I’m in the middle of a surgery.”
I was injured during the attack, ” Chen Jing said. I only have the time now to treat it.
“Are you alright?” Lu Xin asked, stunned.
“I’m fine.”
Chen Jing’s tone seemed to have a feeling of indifference, ” it’s just that there’s an opening in the abdomen and the internal organs are injured. It’ll be fine after I suture it. I’ve already used my ability to hypnotize myself, so I won’t feel any pain … Your matter is more important. I’ve heard that you dealt with the mental monster this time. You did a good job, but because you handled it well, you scared some people.”
but it’s not just you. When we recruited doll, the drunkard, the gecko, and even when they first met me, they all had this reaction. We, the special pollution cleaning Department, have our own rules and regulations. We don’t have to care about these annoying things.
“Alright, you focus on the surgery.”
Lu Xin answered the phone and hung up.
It was only then that he remembered that he was also injured. He looked down and saw that his wound had already formed a scab and seemed to be recovering soon.
He thought silently in his heart that Chen Jing was his leader and she was undergoing surgery …
. Should I buy some fruits and send them over?
After half an hour of driving, the Jeep stopped in front of an old building.
Lu Xin alighted from the car and walked to the driver’s seat. “Don’t wait for me, I’ll go back myself.”
The driver nodded expressionlessly and said in a low voice, ‘”‘1 know.” Lu Xin nodded at him before turning around and heading upstairs.
The moment he entered the door, a room on the left of the fourth floor suddenly lit up with warm lights.
The driver silently drove the car to the guard Station. After driving for a long time, his hands holding the steering wheel suddenly trembled visibly. His expressionless face relaxed a little, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead. He took a headset with his slightly trembling hands and put it on. Someone was calling him on the channel.
there’s an order from above to stop monitoring Shan Bing …
B3, did you hear that? the higher-ups have ordered us to stop monitoring Shan
Bing!
“I heard it!”
The driver said in a hoarse voice, “”He was in my car just now. Why did he do that?” it was Chen Jing from the special Operations team who vouched for him. “But … Didn’t they say that his current threat level has reached a?”
The voice in the channel was silent for a moment before saying, ‘”‘This is also for your safety. The higher-ups have just received a report. When he was carrying out the mission to clear out the level 2 spiritual monsters in satellite city No. 2, a few people who were ordered to investigate him have paid the price.”
among them, there’s a senior investigator, an a-rank elite agent, and even … An ability user.” cause of death, unknown …
The driver turned around subconsciously and looked at the area where the old building was.
After a long, long time, he suddenly had goosebumps all over his body. He stepped on the accelerator and sped away from the area..
