Chapter 266: Huh? Huh?
"Ms. Qiao, these two guards are Awakeners of fairly good rank. Commander Wei handed them over to you, and I brought them here."
Director Fu pushed his glasses and said.
Qiao Lan was puzzled as to why Major General Zhao Bing's guards were handed over to her.
Director Fu was invited to come in and sit down. Upon closer questioning, she learned that this was Wei Jianshe's compensation. He felt that Zhao Bing had wronged her, so he gave her Zhao Bing's senior guards as bodyguards. After all, Zhao Bing was already in custody for investigation and would no longer need such senior guards.
There are a number of official awakening masters, but they are not common, and non-critical personnel are not qualified to be equipped with them.
Like these two guards, both have awakening levels of four+ and very high combat power, but Wei Jianshe gave them to Qiao Lan, which can be regarded as a super gift.
Qiao Lan touched his head embarrassedly, "Well... there's no need to be like this, I can't stand it."
Well, it’s time to get a haircut so that my hair doesn’t prick my hands anymore.
Director Fu said, "You captured Qian Huijia and Zhou Ping for the core laboratory. Your contribution is incalculable. Moreover, it seems you have had military merits in the south before. So even if I give you a guard company, you can afford it."
"Then I'll gladly accept it?" Qiao Lan accepted the gift with some casual courtesy.
He asked about the basic information of the two security guards on the spot.
One of them is called Anhua and the other is called Chen Hua. They were police officers. Their relatives were killed after the apocalypse, and now they are both alone.
Because his supernatural powers upgraded quickly and his combat power was strong, he was promoted to a senior position as a security guard and was assigned to Zhao Bing's side not long ago.
They were determined to defend their country and protect their leader, but who knew that their order to take action against Qiao Lan would cause trouble. Qiao Lan was one of the heroes in the southern battlefield, while Zhao Bing was a petty and incompetent bureaucrat.
They were assigned by Wei Jianshe to be bodyguards for Qiao Lan, and they had no complaints. They stood at attention and saluted Qiao Lan, expressing that they would protect her safety and make amends for their mistakes.
"Hey, you're too kind. What do you mean by making amends? Our previous fight was all a misunderstanding. It can be considered as a competition. You two are really amazing." Qiao Lan gave them a thumbs up.
The two guards blushed slightly.
It would be fine if they didn't mention it, but when they mentioned the fight in the office... it reminded them of the embarrassing scene where the back of their clothes was cut off, exposing the entire back half of their body.
If we talk about who is more powerful, the new boss Qiao Lan is still more powerful. His fighting style is so wild.
The two of them decided that they would never fight with Qiao Lan again in their lives.
Fortunately, they cut the back of the clothes this time. If they cut the front next time, would they still be able to live as human beings?
"Miss Qiao, that..."
Director Fu saw that Qiao Lan had finished greeting the guards and spoke hesitantly.
"Oh, Aunt Fu, why call me Miss? Just call me by my name." Qiao Lan took out a 150ml bottle of mineral water from his pocket and handed it over.
"No, no, I'm not thirsty." Director Fu insisted.
Water resources are so precious these days, how could she ask Qiao Lan for a whole bottle of water?
Qiao Lan smiled and put the water back into her pocket, then asked, "Auntie, if you have anything to ask me, please tell me directly."
I will do anything for you, just because you personally take care of my brother.
Qiao Lan saw that the other person's hands were folded tightly together, and he was obviously a little nervous. He wondered what was going on that was worthy of the chief director of the laboratory to come and have a private chat?
Director Fu spoke awkwardly, "Well, Qiao Lan, I'm sorry, but I really need a favor. I have a niece whose parents died a long time ago. She's studying alone in City C. I haven't been able to contact her since the typhoon... Do you know many people in City C? Can you get in touch with the official base? Do you think you can..."
Looking for relatives.
Qiao Lan smiled and said, "Then you've found the right person. I'm quite familiar with the people at the official base over there. I'll ask them to help you find out when I get back. Besides, I have some channels myself."
Xiao Li has a group of little mice, cats, dogs and bugs under his command. They are quite useful when they are spread out to find people.
When Director Fu heard that Qiao Lan was willing to help, he was overjoyed. He stepped forward and shook Qiao Lan's hand tightly, saying excitedly, "Thank you! Thank you!"
Although she was an official core scientific researcher and had released news of her search for relatives through official channels, the previous situation was that communication across the country was very inconvenient. Either she could not contact people in different places, or even if she could contact them, the news would be lost. Moreover, there were evil organizations such as the Temple causing destruction everywhere. She had not received any information about her relatives for a long time, and she didn't know whether the news had not been passed on to City C, or... something had happened to her relatives.
The official channels are blocked, and now I suddenly meet Qiao Lan who came from City C. If I ask for private help, there will be more hope, right?
"Aunt Fu, I don't know your niece's name, what she looks like, and any special features?" Qiao Lan asked Director Fu not to get excited and to explain the situation first.
I don’t know whether the other party’s relatives are still alive. There are not many people left in City C out of the millions of people.
If he has already died, then all the excitement now would be in vain.
Director Fu quickly said, "My niece is in her early twenties, about my height and looks a bit like me, but she's thinner. I don't know if she's even thinner now, but she doesn't have any special features... She's a student at City C Polytechnic University. Her name is Fu Xingyuan. She should have been at the school when the typhoon hit, but I don't know..."
"What's your name? Which words?"
"It's called Fu Xingyuan, Ren Cun Fu, the star of the star, the wish of the wish."
"A first-year graduate student in the Department of Mathematics at a Polytechnic University?"
"Ah, how did you know? I haven't told you yet. Could it be..."
Qiao Lan and Yin Wanying looked at each other and smiled.
I didn’t expect that Xiao Fu has such an awesome aunt, a core scientist!
"Ah? Ah??? Ahhhhhhh? Ah?"
After listening to Qiao Lan's explanation, Director Fu, who knew that Fu Xingyuan was in Qiao Lan's gang, was stunned. He was completely dumbfounded and could not say anything. He just kept on making noises.
She really just came to Qiao Lan to look for someone with a little hope.
Unexpectedly, they found the person right away?!
My niece is still alive! And she's awakened! And she hasn't suffered too much. After following Qiao Lan, she has food, drink, and a house to live in!
Director Fu burst into tears, having never expected this outcome. She'd actually been prepared for the possibility of never finding her niece! Being alone in the apocalypse was dangerous for a girl. She knew full well that being mauled to death by a mutant beast was a blessing; if she fell into the wrong hands, anything could happen.
Yin Wanying felt that Director Fu was too emotional, so she used some mental comfort to calm her down in a moment.
Director Fu came to his senses, grabbed Qiao Lan, and didn't know what to say.
Qiao Lan smiled shyly. "You don't have to thank me too much, but I do have a small matter that I need your help with. Um... I'm planning to build a laboratory in my town, similar to yours, and Zhou Ping will be in charge. But I'm thinking about the specific structure, equipment, staffing, and scientific research procedures. Could you please give me some guidance?"
Hehe! High-end off-field guidance, this is like a godsend!
