Squeak——!

In the sunshine, Lin Qiye carried An Qingyu on his back and slowly pushed open the door of his temporary residence in Shangjing City.

No one had lived there for a long time. The drifting dust was blown in the air by the breeze from the door. Lin Qiye waved his hand to disperse the dust and walked in. Cao Yuan followed closely behind him carrying a black coffin on his back.

"I haven't been away for long, why does it feel like I haven't been back for many years?"

Cao Yuan placed Jiang Er's coffin, walked around the room, and smiled helplessly.

"Maybe it's because I've gone through too many things during this period of time." Lin Qiye gently placed An Qingyu on the bed, moved several quilts to the yard, and hung them up to dry one by one.

Since the establishment of [Nightfall], they have been traveling around the world and have hardly stopped. There are only three places where they have stayed for a long time: the warehouse where they trained with Zhou Ping, the island that carries the country's destiny, and this temporary residence in Shangjing City.

It has been more than three years since the training in that warehouse. I am afraid it no longer exists. Even if it is still there, it is not suitable for living and recuperation. Although the island is definitely there, it is not suitable for living either. So Lin Qiye finally chose this residence in Shangjing as the place to recuperate.

Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan cleaned the entire residence from top to bottom. Although Jiang Er wanted to help, he didn't have a physical body, so he could only silently provide spiritual support and take care of An Qingyu's condition.

Unfortunately, after arriving here, An Qingyu is still in a coma and shows no signs of waking up.

Knock knock knock——!

Just as they finished cleaning, there was a knock on the door.

Lin Qiye opened the door and saw a familiar figure in a military coat standing outside.

"Chen Han?" Lin Qiye asked in surprise, "We just arrived and you already knew about this? Are you so well-informed?"

Chen Han smiled and said, "This is Shangjing. Any disturbance will not escape my eyes."

After Shao Pingge left, Chen Han took over his position and became the new king of Shangjing City. Judging from the fact that he knew Lin Qiye and others were coming to Shangjing so quickly, the new king has completely taken control of the city.

"Why are there only a few of you?" Chen Han looked around and asked in confusion, "Where's Shen Qingzhu? Where's Baili Pangpang?"

Chen Han clearly remembered that when the Shangjing City team celebrated the New Year, the [Night] team had more than just this few people.

Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan's bodies trembled slightly, and after a moment, they replied:

"Brother Zha is in the fog, and Pangpang...he went to heaven."

Chen Han nodded thoughtfully, "Since there aren't many of you, why don't you come to our place for dinner tonight?"

Lin Qiye and the others looked at each other, and saw An Qingyu in a daze.

"Okay."

Anyway, they are on vacation here and have no other plans, so maybe An Qingyu can wake up during this time.

Lin Qiye and the others took a brief rest, then took An Qingyu straight to the 006 team base. Perhaps An Qingyu never expected that he was already unconscious and had to be forced to participate in some social activities.

The base of the Shangjing team was not far from their residence, and everyone soon arrived at the familiar courtyard gate. Compared with before, the front of the courtyard gate was already piled high with fallen leaves, and it seemed that no one had cleaned it for a long time.

"All the original team members have gone to the front line, and now we are a little short of manpower... Dealing with the 'mystery' is already a headache, and there is really no one to deal with these things." Chen Han stepped over the fallen leaves and smiled helplessly.

He pushed open the gate of the courtyard, but suddenly froze in place.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Chen Han's expression change, Lin Qiye looked towards the door in confusion, his eyes narrowed slightly.

In the center of the courtyard, five heavy coffins were lined up in a row. Amid the flying fallen leaves, a young figure was kneeling in front of the coffins, sobbing.

"This is..." Lin Qiye seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes became complicated.

Chen Han walked into the courtyard in silence, looked at the five heavy coffins, and slowly said, "Xu Liao, what are these?"

Lin Qiye and others had seen this young night watchman kneeling in front of the coffin before. He was originally a member of the 006 team. He should be a recruit from the last batch or the previous batch. Because of his insufficient realm, he did not follow those seniors to the front battlefield.

"Captain Chen... after you left, the logistics department sent these over..." Xu Liao wiped away the tears from his eyes, his eyes red, "Brother Zhengting and the others... all died in the battle."

Chen Han's eyes narrowed slightly.

He had not been in Shangjing City for long. Not long after he joined the 006 team, Zhang Zhengting and his team were transferred to the front line. He did not know them very well... Even so, when those familiar faces turned into coffins and were placed in front of him, his heart still ached.

At that time, there were seven people in their 006 team who went to the front line, and five of them died in the battle.

Then...how terrible would the casualties of the entire Night's Watch be?

Chen Han turned to look at Lin Qiye and the others with a heavy expression. Lin Qiye and the others knew about this matter at the front line and could only sigh helplessly.

"Where are Zhenzhen and Fangmo?"

"They took another plane and came back later than me, but they should be here soon," Xu Liao replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, the voices of two people talking came from the end of the alley.

Lin Qiye turned his head and saw Fang Mo and Li Zhenzhen, each holding a black box, walking towards him on the fallen leaves.

"Didn't I just help Brother Chen Han clean up when I left...why are there so many fallen leaves again?" Li Zhenzhen muttered.

"We have all gone to support the front line, and Captain Chen is the only one in charge of Shangjing. How can he have time to sweep the floor?"

"There are so many leaves. How long will it take to sweep them all?"

"However, the battle in the front is over. The other seniors should be coming back soon, right?"

"Yes!" Li Zhenzhen's eyes lit up. "Let's wait for Brother Zhengting and the others to come back and let them do the sweeping! We've already swept more than a dozen times anyway, so we should let them... eh?"

Li Zhenzhen was halfway through her words when she saw Lin Qiye and the other man standing in front of the courtyard gate and was slightly stunned.

"Master Qiye?" Fang Mo asked in surprise, "Why are you here too?"

Fang Mo didn't expect that less than 24 hours after their last meeting, they would reunite in Shangjing City.

"Where's Brother Zhengting? Are they back too?!"

Li Zhenzhen quickly rushed up the stairs. She was full of expectations and did not realize that the atmosphere seemed a little wrong. When she rushed into the courtyard and saw the five coffins lined up, she suddenly froze in place.
