Chapter 121
After the training, Xia Mo was suddenly called by the teacher.
"You haven't bound the spiritual healer yet?"
Xia Mo thought about it and shook his head.
There was one before, and that person was none other than Xiaoyu, who applied for the Logistics Department.
But now it will definitely not be bound to her, because she will no longer have any connection with them.
Seeing that she really did shake her head, the teacher smiled with relief and waved behind her: "That's perfect. I'll introduce you to a healer. He's determined to be bound to you."
A figure walked out from behind. After seeing who it was, Xia Mo's pupils flashed.
Why is it him?
Isn’t he... a mecha master in reserve for the military?
Although she was oblivious to the world in her previous life and didn't know much about Sui Bai, Xia Mo would definitely not be wrong about the fact that he was not a mental healer.
Xia Mo was a little surprised, but he quickly adjusted his expression: "Hello."
Sui Bai smiled at her and extended his hand politely: "Hello."

The preliminaries were held as scheduled, and Xia Mo successfully led the team into the preliminary round without any pressure.
The preliminary round will still be held on the planet Alman, but will be broadcast live throughout the entire Sita galaxy. Of course, events on other planets will also be broadcast simultaneously to the capital planet.
The preliminary round was not difficult overall. Although Alman Star was not ranked high in the galaxy, it was a planet that gathered the best military resources from the entire planet. In addition, with the participation of Xia Mo, a reborn person, they passed the preliminary round easily.
The list of the semi-finals came out soon, and the name of the First Military Academy of Alman Star was among them.
The organizer of the Capital Star Mecha Competition carefully looked at the list that had just been submitted. Suddenly, his eyes stopped at one of the lines.
"Alman Planet?"
He was slightly startled, then raised his head and looked at the secretary at the desk: "Are you sure the list is correct?"
The secretary stood up straight and said, "Mr. Qi, the list has been verified to be correct."
Haha, Qi Congyi narrowed his eyes and looked at the words on the list again, and a hint of interest slowly emerged in his eyes.
He waved his hand and asked the secretary to leave first. In the exquisitely decorated gray-blue room, a beam of light shot out from the most advanced optical brain ring. After a few seconds, a holographic projection appeared in the center of the room.
"What's the matter, Lao Qi?"
In the holographic image, a middle-aged man wearing a black military uniform with gold edges spoke.
Qi Congyi picked up the list and waved it in front of the other party: "Did you see that? This year, the number one military academy on the Yarman Star actually made it to the semi-finals."
"What's there to report? Don't tell me about this kind of thing in the future."
Qi Congyi smiled and said, "How about you take a look at the names of the contestants this time?"
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, raised his hand, enlarged the name at the bottom of the list, and after quickly scanning it, his expression was obviously displeased.
"What's the problem?"
Seeing that he didn't seem to understand, Qi Congyi pointed to a name above and said, "This person, Xia, Mo, do you remember anything?"
"What exactly do you want to say?"
The other party's tone grew colder. Qi Congyi shook his head and sneered, "Old Han, you've been up there for so long that you've even forgotten some people's last names?"
In the picture, Lao Han paused for two seconds, and suddenly his eyes became gloomy: "Are you sure it's her?"
Seeing that the other party finally realized his deep meaning, Qi Congyi smiled and shrugged: "Not sure."
"Then what did you say!!!"
Qi Congyi slowly put away the list: "Don't be angry, Old Han, there are not many people left who know about this. I don't mean any other things, I just want to remind you to be prepared for danger in times of peace~"
"Heh, I'm the first admiral of the capital, and it's not your turn to worry about me."
Snap, the holographic image was interrupted, leaving only a white picture.
Qi Congyi was not angry. He used the light brain ring to contact his secretary and asked the latter to hand over the detailed information of the contestants one by one.

The rematch was held in winter. The weather in December was exceptionally cold, and coupled with a cold wave that came this year for some reason, the north of Alman Star was covered with thick snow until before the competition.
However, although the weather was cold, the hearts of the citizens of Alman were surging with excitement.
Everyone knew that the First Military Academy of Alman Star had successfully entered the semi-finals. At this time, regardless of gender, age or status, as long as they were free, they all brought chairs and benches, sat upright in front of the screen, and prepared to watch this game that was of great significance to them.
At the competition site, the judges of the capital star sat down one by one on the podium, and various measuring instruments and miniature cameras were densely packed and in place.
Looking at this scene, several teammates who came to the capital star for the first time began to get nervous.
"Wait, what if I don't perform well later?"
"My heart is beating so fast right now. It's over. Will I be able to remember the map?"
Although they are all outstanding players who have entered the semi-finals, due to the marginal status of Alman Star for many years, people on the planet have almost never been to the capital star. Now they come here for the first time and see what a big scene is. As students, they are more or less nervous.
Except Xia Mo.
"Not nervous?"
Sui Bai asked with a smile when he saw no reaction on her face.
Xia Mo shrugged: "It's okay."
After all, she had been here before, and now for her, it was just a revisit to the old place.
Oh, and it’s not just a revisit.
After checking the mecha one last time and confirming that it was correct, she raised her hand to signal the referee that she was ready.
Then she climbed into the control room, gripped the familiar joystick, and took a deep breath. In this life, she wanted to help Alman Star enter the finals one year ahead of schedule.
*
The competition was in full swing and the rematch ended after 8 hours.
A total of 8 teams entered the finals, and a week later, they will compete for the top three at the final venue on Capital Star.
This is the case every year, but this year, something is a little different.
Among the eight teams standing on the stage, one seemed a little out of place.
Many cameras were focused on them, and reporters also took up microphones to start introducing them.
"...As you can see, standing on the stage are the teams that qualified for the finals of the 32nd Mecha Competition. Most of them are from familiar military academies, but there's one team that looks unfamiliar. Who are they?"
The camera followed the words and accurately landed on the school badge and star badge on Xia Mo's chest.
"According to our station, this group of contestants comes from a fringe planet called... uh... Ya, Yaman. It's currently ranked in the lower middle of the Theta Galaxy. They attend the First Military Academy..."
This was the first time that Alman Star appeared in the public eye, so much so that even the reporters were having trouble speaking fluently when introducing it.
Looking at the footage broadcast from the scene, Qi Congyi called the person on the other end again.
As soon as the call was connected, he immediately said in a more relaxed tone than last time, "How's it going, Old Han? Should I have no problem reporting to you this time?"
"If you have something to say, just say it now, don't waste time."
Han Rantai no longer has much patience for this person who knows the secret of that year.
Qi Congyi yawned. "No big deal, just letting you know that the First Military Academy on Alman Star has made it to the finals."
"Where's the girl?"
Qi Congyi: “Also inside.”
Han Rantai: "I mean her identity! Her background!"
"Oh, you're asking that~" Qi Congyi said calmly, "Nothing was found. The background is normal."
"Her parents checked? Are they from Alman?"
Qi Congyi: "I checked, he's a local."
"Does it have anything to do with the military?"
"No, just an ordinary citizen."
"What unit do you work for now?"
Qi Congyi paused before saying, "They're all dead."
"Dead?!"
As soon as he heard these two words, Qi Congyi heard Han Rantai's voice on the other end of the communication suddenly rise.
He raised his eyebrows imperceptibly: "Don't worry, Old Han, he died of illness, it's not what you think."
There was a noticeable exhalation sound from the other end of the receiver.
Qi Congyi chuckled, but the receiver did not pick up his laughter.
The other end said: "Although most possibilities have been ruled out, I will continue to observe. You also need to keep a close eye on it. If there is anything unusual, report it to me immediately!"
"Okay, got it~"
After hanging up the phone, Qi Congyi retrieved the information that he had asked his secretary to secretly investigate.
On the spreadsheet, in the [Parents] column, it clearly says: xxx (foster care).
