Chapter 238 Planning for the Future
The "meeting" is over.
Yu Sheng and Little Red Riding Hood sat together on the roof of the highest point of the "castle", looking at the scene in the camp, watching the little kids who were so sleepy that they were staggering being taken back to their rooms one by one by their older brothers and sisters to catch up on their sleep, and watching the "parents" who left the castle yawning as they walked through the barracks. After a long time, Yu Sheng retracted his gaze and looked up at the thin clouds in the sky.
"They have all gone back to their rooms to catch up on their sleep. Aren't you sleepy?" Yu Sheng asked casually without turning his head.
"I'm still too excited to sleep," Little Red Riding Hood leaned back and lay on the sloping roof of the castle, "...I can go take the driver's license test in a few days."
Yu Sheng thought for a moment and asked, "What birthday gift do you want?"
"You want a car?"
“I can’t afford it.”
Little Red Riding Hood laughed and shook her head: "Actually, I haven't really thought about it... I don't have the mood to think about it. I've actually been very scared - don't laugh at me, I'm really scared."
"Yes, I know."
Then the two of them calmed down together, enjoying this moment of peace and quiet.
After a long while, Little Red Riding Hood finally broke the silence: "By the way, I just thought carefully about what you said about the future operation of the 'Fairy Tale' organization, as well as the future development of members and identity 'inheritance'. I feel that it is quite worth looking forward to."
"Oh?" Yu Sheng raised his eyebrows. "I thought you had a psychological trauma from the words 'new Little Red Riding Hood'."
"A little bit, but because these words have always been a burden on my heart, I am looking forward to the 'change' in the future," the girl smiled, "Think about it, in the 'Fairy Tale' organization, whether it's Little Red Riding Hood or Snow White, everyone is an orphan forced into a nightmare, but from now on, the new Little Red Riding Hood may just be a fresh graduate of the occult who came in through the regular recruitment channel or a novice spirit world detective who took the initiative to submit a resume...
"They don't have to worry about their lifespan, they don't have to suffer and feel lonely. They just come here to find a long-term, stable job, and we train them like teachers - they work normally, take normal vacations, and when they put on the red cape, they are the 'employees' and 'apprentices' of the organization. When they take off the red cape, they go home and be with their families.
"Of course, the first person I will train will probably be Xiaoxiao. That child is actually very talented, and she has already established several preliminary 'communications' with the Black Forest. In the process of training her, I will probably be able to quickly master how to let a novice learn to control a wolf pack without the influence of 'Ankaela'. This part of the experience will also be useful to others..."
Little Red Riding Hood kept talking, with a warm and expectant smile on her face, as if she was imagining what a normal and stable "working life" the "Little Red Riding Hoods" of the future would lead - even if such "working" was a bit outrageous for ordinary people, but for the members of the Fairy Tale Organization, it was already an incredibly smooth life.
Little Red Riding Hood smiled, as if she was also enjoying that kind of life.
Yu Sheng did not interrupt the girl's chattering. He just listened patiently until Little Red Riding Hood's voice gradually died down and she began to snore softly in the bright sunlight.
A glimpse of gold appeared at the edge of his vision. Yu Sheng saw two tufts of golden hair swaying on the eaves like tentacles. Then a long piece of golden hair began to climb up the roof like some dark mollusk. Then the head of Rapunzel appeared on the edge of the roof. The hair monster poked its head out to take a look and greeted Yu Sheng happily: "Brother, I'm here to look for Red Riding Hood!"
Yu Sheng raised his hand and pointed to the side: "Falling asleep."
"I knew it," Rapunzel wrinkled her nose, and a strand of her golden hair continued to extend along the roof, carefully wrapping up the sleeping Little Red Riding Hood and began to carry her out. "I have slept in the same room with her for many years. When she was adjourning just now, the look in her eyes showed that she would fall asleep within half an hour."
Yu Sheng was stunned watching from the side, his eyes involuntarily falling on the large piece of hair crawling along the dark roof: "After all, such long blonde hair should be beautiful in the story, but your style is like a goblin that just crawled out of a cave, dark and crawling..."
"What's the use of beauty? Can it reduce the attack and defense of demons when fighting them, or increase the movement speed when running in the tower?" Rapunzel glanced at Yu Sheng, "At least I won't twist them into a strand and shoot them out..."
Yu Sheng immediately fell silent: "..."
But Rapunzel soon spoke again, and this time she spoke hesitantly: "...Brother, is our orphanage really gone?"
"From the photos of the scene sent by Li Lin, it can be said that it has been razed to the ground," Yu Sheng sighed, "Only the small pavilion at the gate is still standing, and the lifting pole at the main gate - only the seat is left."
"Oh, that means Sleeping Beauty's 'workstation' is still there," Rapunzel said casually, but then her expression became serious. "That means we will be living here for a long time from now on?"
"This is the arrangement for now," Yu Sheng nodded, "after all, you have nowhere else to go for the time being. Of course, the details still depend on your own opinions - anyway, if you want to go somewhere else, the Secret Service and the Board of Directors will definitely be willing to help, after all, we have just solved an incident at the level of the descent of angels."
Rapunzel's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Well, can we just stay here and not move, but let the Secret Service pay us the resettlement fee based on the budget for rebuilding an orphanage?"
Yu Sheng: “…”
The girl in front of him quickly added: "Also... I'll pay your hotel bill as well."
"You are so unreasonable," Yu Sheng finally said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Then he waved his hand, "Don't worry about it for now. I have to go to the Secret Service in person later. There are many things to discuss with them. And if you really want to live here for a long time, I will open a 'special door' for you to connect from the camp to the outside. After all, you dozens of people can't all come in and out of my basement in the future."
"...Oh, it sounds like there is a lot going on."
Yu Sheng was a little curious: "Why do you suddenly think of asking these questions?"
"When I came here just now, I met Snow White and the king. They were discussing the future," Rapunzel said while maintaining the strange posture of hanging her hair outside the eaves with her head exposed to talk to Yu Sheng. "They also said that if we want to stay here for a long time, this camp will have to be slowly transformed. Everyone has to build their own houses and move out of the temporary houses. By then, it will be like a small town. Snow White said that it will be called Tong O Town, and she will build a Titan Altar next to the town..."
Yu Sheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, and then he immediately realized that the effect of the previous meeting was gradually showing up -
After having a long life, the children finally began to plan for the future with hope.
The only problem is that this group of super middle school students, reserve super middle school students and super cats seem to have not only amazing imagination but also super strong action - God knows what they will transform this place into in the future.
...seems super interesting.
Yu Sheng's mouth curled up.
"Brother, you laughed, why did you laugh?"
"I approved it in advance. I mean the Titan Altar - just don't cover my vegetable garden."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"oh oh!"
Then Rapunzel left with Little Red Riding Hood.
Yu Sheng watched as the huge golden ball of fur wrapped around the two of them crawled in the dark on the road in the middle of the camp, and went all the way into the hut where the two of them were currently living. To be honest, he remembered that when he first met Rapunzel, she didn't look like this. At that time, he thought she was a very quiet girl...
But thinking about the mental state of "Matchstick" when he first met her and her normal appearance, Yu Sheng felt relieved instantly. It is reasonable for contemporary young people, especially those who deal with "fairy tales", to have such a mental state.
With a sigh in his heart, he casually opened a door and stepped into No. 66 Wutong Road.
The first thing he did when he entered the room was to look around quickly, while at the same time pricking up his ears to listen to the movements around him.
It was okay, nothing was on fire, and no big holes were blown out anywhere. From the second floor came the sound of Irene cursing while playing games. The TV in the living room was playing some meaningless variety show, and Irene's silly laughter sounded clear and transparent.
Yu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and walked inside.
Hu Li's surprised voice came from the direction of the restaurant: "My benefactor! You're back!"
When Yu Sheng looked up, he saw Hu Li happily rushing towards him - fortunately, she didn't use the rocket to accelerate, she just rushed towards him normally.
Yu Sheng saved most of his ribs.
He caught the fox and let the tails clamp him like hydraulic pliers for a long time before he struggled to free his hands and pressed the fur behind the fox's ears. "We were delayed for quite a while in the valley, mainly to explain the changes in the foreign land of 'Fairy Tale' to Little Red Riding Hood - are you getting impatient?"
"Yeah, I got impatient waiting," Hu Li smiled happily, letting go of his tail and dragging Yu Sheng towards the dining table, "But Irene is not in a hurry. She said you were busy, and then she went upstairs to play games and to the living room to watch TV - but I made breakfast for you!"
Yu Sheng paused for a moment: "...breakfast?"
"Yes, it's the one you had last time. Irene said it can be called fox stew," Hu Li smiled and pushed Yu Sheng onto the dining chair. Then he lifted the lid of the pot on the dining table and pushed a pot of colorful, rich, and bubbling solid-liquid mixture in front of Yu Sheng. "It's delicious!"
When Yu Sheng saw the things in the basin, his expression changed a little, and he felt even more horrified than last time: "Wait a minute! The things in this basin are moving! There are more colors than last time!"
"Yes, this time Irene didn't mess things up, so it was much more successful than last time," Hu Li became even happier. "I think if I try a few more times, I'll be able to cook something that tastes about 60% similar to what my mom made!"
Yu Sheng: “…”
