Chapter 531 Inheritance
When leaving the rooftop, Xia Yue was suddenly hugged from behind and a hand covered her mouth.
The small body trembled slightly.
Then, when she was about to resist, she smelled a familiar fragrance, and her eyes slowly relaxed.
"You sneaked around behind my back, went on a date with someone else, and ate the cake without leaving a piece for me, right?"
Li Muhan hugged the girl tightly from behind, almost lifting her feet off the ground.
"I'm going to spit it out on you right now, do you want it?"
"Yes, if you give it to me, I will definitely take it."
"......abnormal."
Li Muhan carried Xia Yue down the teaching building, completely ignoring the gazes around him. Finally, Xia Yue asked him a question.
"Will you forgive Gu Ruoxi?"
She knew that Li Muhan had heard what she was talking about with Gu Ruoxi on the rooftop. So, what did Li Muhan think?
"Like you said, it doesn't matter whether I forgive her or not, because in my life, she is at most just the daughter of my adoptive parents."
Then Li Muhan put Xia Yue down with a smile, looked into her eyes and said, "After all, there is no room for others in my eyes now."
"...Humph, smooth talk."
"However, just like you said, I can't ignore my connection with her forever, so..."
Li Muhan gently held Xia Yue's hand.
"This year, come back with me to meet our parents."
......
That night.
In Lin Ze’s office at the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau, Li Muhan received a rather special document.
This document is not a mission briefing, but a simple letter of appointment.
[Team Seven Captain Li Muhan is temporarily appointed as the mentor of the intern team Hyena Team until the end of the current training ceremony for the combat members of the Huaxia Special Management Bureau.]
"...Let me guide? No, let me be a mentor?"
Li Muhan looked at Lin Ze with some doubts. He confirmed it several times and found that it was indeed written as mentor.
"Ah, you've been here for almost a year now, and after your file was updated, you're now a Calamity-level anomaly. Furthermore, the Seventh Squad you led has been making numerous contributions during this time. As the captain of a meritorious squad, it should be easy for you to be a mentor to an intern squad."
Lin Ze sat behind his desk, stirring his coffee with a spoon as he spoke.
"But... uh... Director Lin, tell me honestly, your main purpose as a mentor this time is to help these trainee team members pass the Special Management Bureau's combat member trials."
Faced with Li Muhan's doubts, Lin Ze did not hide anything and nodded directly.
"Yes, that's the reason."
"That's the problem, Director Lin. You see, I was born with supernatural powers! I have never participated in this trial. If I mislead the students, wouldn't I be a sinner?"
"It's not as serious as you think."
Lin Ze stood up, put down his coffee cup, and patted Li Muhan on the shoulder.
"All you need to do is to protect their lives as much as possible during the trial. After all, most people who join the Special Management Bureau have their own obsessions. While these obsessions may sometimes help them survive the trial, they can also sometimes become shackles that hinder their survival."
Li Muhan sighed, he looked at the document again, and then saw three files.
"...Chen Yiming, 19 years old. Three years ago, her parents died in a fight between two aliens. Zhou Yichen, 20 years old. Her parents died early, and she and her younger sister depended on each other for survival. But last year, her younger sister was attacked and killed by an alien that escaped from its cage. Lu Yunxue, 19 years old. Uh..."
When he saw the last name, Li Muhan took a special look at her photo.
The photo shows a woman with a firm gaze. Her appearance is not very pretty, but she is very pretty.
And her appearance is somewhat similar to someone he knows...especially her eyes, which are almost exactly the same as that person's.
Wait...this is impossible...that man should have only one son, and his son should have died in the line of duty a long time ago.
Li Muhan raised his head slightly and looked at Lin Ze with a puzzled look.
"I know what you're thinking, Li Muhan. She... is Huo Tian's daughter. Huo Tian didn't tell you, right? He has another daughter, which is normal. His daughter was taken abroad by her uncle to study when she was very young. This was because Huo Tian's uncle thought Huo Tian's job was very dangerous. He was a policeman at the time and had a very bad temper, so he often had enemies looking for him. For the safety of the child, Huo Tian and his wife did not object."
"But...why didn't he tell us anything at all? And why is his daughter's last name Lu?"
Li Muhan sat on the sofa and looked through the files carefully.
"Maybe it's because Huo Tian... he knew this day would come, and he didn't want his daughter to have anything to do with the Special Management Bureau. He once told me that if he died, his daughter would definitely return home because she's just that kind of child. She inherited Huo Tian's personality, paranoia... but it's a pity."
Lin Ze also sat next to Li Muhan, she crossed her legs and leaned on the sofa.
"He underestimated his daughter's paranoia. As for her last name, Huo Tian said she took her uncle's last name after she went abroad."
Li Muhan nodded, and he began to understand Huo Tian’s good intentions.
But he still had many doubts, so he continued to ask, "Then how did she find any clues about the Special Management Bureau? Huo Tian shouldn't have left any clues."
Lin Ze smiled slightly, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes. "Lu Yunxue is very clever. She found some seemingly insignificant clues in Huo Tian's belongings, such as some special symbols, dates, and locations. She used her computer skills to decode and analyze this information, and eventually caught one of our logistics personnel who was out purchasing. Yes, you heard correctly, that child directly caught our logistics personnel."
When he said this, Lin Ze couldn't help laughing.
"After all, she was a civilian in logistics, not a combat member, and lacked awareness of anti-tracking. That was half a year ago. She used that as an opportunity to contact me and expressed her desire to join the Special Management Bureau."
"You... shouldn't have agreed to her."
Li Muhan clenched his fists slightly.
He was not angry with Lin Ze, but was a little scared.
It was Li Muhan who ended Huo Tian's life with his own hands, and now he is about to become the mentor of Huo Tian's daughter, which is not an easy task.
"Yeah, I shouldn't." Lin Ze laughed at himself, then turned his head slightly and stared at Li Muhan: "But when looking at such a determined pair of eyes, how can I refuse her..."
From Lin Ze’s smile and tone.
Li Muhan understood instantly that Lin Ze was lying...
If the Special Management Bureau could be found so easily by an 18-year-old girl, the world would have been in chaos long ago.
It was Lin Ze... She was the one who led Huo Tian's daughter into contact with the logistics staff, and then contacted herself...
But Li Muhan really couldn't blame Lin Ze.
After all, facing such a pair of paranoid and determined eyes, who could bear to see her being kept in the dark for her whole life?
Perhaps time will dilute everything, but it will only bury everything shallowly. If a huge wave hits one day, it will only make these scars look even more embarrassing...
Moreover, if Lu Yunxue is allowed to continue investigating the Special Management Bureau in her own way, it is very likely that the enforcement forces will intervene and extract her memory.
So... seek benevolence and you will get benevolence.
It would be better to let her see for herself what kind of path her father has taken.
"So, Director Lin, you deliberately let me take over this team, right?" Li Muhan said with a wry smile as he put the information on the table.
"Well, because I can't think of anyone else besides you who is qualified to be her mentor. Perhaps this is what humans often call... inheritance?"
......
Early the next morning, a large crowd gathered outside the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau headquarters building.
They gathered in groups of two or three, talking and laughing, but some of them had stern expressions and seemed to disdain to associate with others.
These people are generally under 30 years old, and a few of them look middle-aged.
They were not wearing black suit uniforms. After all, these people were only trainees and were not qualified to wear those suits.
Li Muhan stood at the window of the second-floor corridor, looking at the crowd below and sighing. "I was also a trainee at the time, and they actually let me wear the uniform directly... Looking back now, this privilege must have earned me a lot of hatred back then."
"Li Muhan."
Xia Yue's voice sounded from behind.
Today, Xia Yue also wore the standard black suit of the China Special Management Bureau. She got up early in the morning and combed her hair into an exquisite ponytail. She looked more energetic than usual.
Not for any other reason, just because Xia Yue is also the mentor of the three interns.
"Did you find your team members?"
Xia Yue asked.
Li Muhan leaned against the window and raised his chin.
Xia Yue looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a short-haired girl in the corner of the open space in front of the headquarters building, looking around, as if she was alert to everything around her.
"That's Chen Yiming. She witnessed her parents being torn apart by aliens. She was traumatized and for a time, she couldn't speak. After a year of psychological counseling from the Special Management Bureau, she's been able to recover a relatively normal social life. But even in this kind of situation, she seems to be in great pain and nervousness."
Then Li Muhan raised his hand and pointed at a young man who was sitting on the steps, playing with a butterfly knife in his hand.
"Zhou Yichen, this brat is a bit of a jerk. He stopped studying after graduating from elementary school and has been living in the underworld ever since. If his beloved sister hadn't been killed by some alien, he would probably have died like a stray dog on the roadside in a street fight one day."
Finally, Li Muhan looked to the back of the crowd.
The girl, who was carrying a schoolbag and wearing a black top and jeans, looked very ordinary.
"That... is Huo Tian's daughter, Lu Yunxue."
