Chapter 20 He became the same as when we first met
Start the remote scanning module.
We need to know which building the mobile signal source is in and how many people are around it."
He pointed toward the center of the low-rise building complex and said, "At the same time, find a way to access their public information network and see who this place belongs to.
To have such a piece of land in the main city of Garbage Planet, the owner must be someone unknown."
Gu Jinyan immediately executed the order, his fingers moving quickly on the car's light screen.
Gu Changfeng took a glance and saw that the speed was quite fast.
Gu Jinyan buttoned his shirt to the top with a serious look on his face, as if he was about to give a report at the military parade in the next second.
Gu Changfeng sighed silently.
Before leaving, the Secretary-General handed over a message requesting absolute secrecy, and he glanced at his trusted subordinates.
They all have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and are full of righteousness. Standing there, they are like a living sign of "Keep away, I'm good at fighting."
If we send them to the garbage planet, they might be targeted by local gangs as if they were trying to challenge their fellow gang members as soon as they get off the ship.
His good adviser had just been sent out to handle official business and it was difficult to call him back for the time being.
Ordinary soldiers don't have the authority to access this area.
Just when he was worrying about manpower, he looked up and saw his eldest son Gu Jinyan, who had just finished his summer internship in the Tenth Legion and came to the office with a thick stack of weekly reports to ask for his signature.
Gu Changfeng's eyes lit up at that moment.
Good skills, quick mind, clean background, and absolutely reliable.
The key point is - the face is unfamiliar.
Moreover, as an intern during this summer vacation, the temporary transfer is absolutely reasonable.
So, before Gu Jinyan had the time to hand over the report "Dad, this is this week's training analysis and logistics supply recommendations", his father grabbed his arm.
"Put the report here first, and go on this official business trip with Dad!"
Gu Changfeng smiled brightly, without question, "Let me show you the real grassroots ecology. Just think of it as summer practice expansion!"
He felt that he had sufficient reasons, and was filled with the "deep love for his son" of an old father who wanted to broaden his son's horizons.
Until Gu Jinyan boarded the fully enclosed starship, there was no one on board, and he even had to drive the ship. It seemed that he was being tricked into being a slave again.
Only then did Gu Changfeng confess the truth.
Gu Jinyan: ...
So why bring him along? He's not really qualified for this mission, is he?
How can he take on such an important responsibility when he hasn’t even graduated yet?
Gu Changfeng glanced at his son's still tense profile and felt that he still had a long way to go.
I just hope this trip to a remote galaxy will allow this child to gain more experience, to be less stubborn, and to...
A little rounder.
The gray pickup truck slid silently into the shadow of a nearby pile of abandoned pipes and blended into the background.
Under the turbid sky of the garbage planet, this abrupt "oasis of comfort" stands quietly, like a carefully carved bait.

As I walked through the door, the light suddenly dimmed.
The air also became chilly.
An Zhi tucked in his chin.
Finally came to the end.
Quinn adjusted the cuffs of his black coat with an elegant movement, and his beautiful eyes appeared even deeper in the dim garage.
He lowered his head to look at An Zhi who was being held by his subordinates, and smiled faintly:
"Welcome to the safe house, Mushroom."
His voice echoed a bit in the empty garage.
An Zhi didn't say anything, just looked at him.
His smile was dull and he returned to the same state he had when we first met.
An Zhi instinctively felt a little scared and hugged the little mushroom tighter.
Quinn ignored her silence and walked towards the door further into the garage.
That door looks very heavy.
Quinn reached out and pressed on the screen next to him, and a thin red light swept across.
The metal door slid inward.
A stronger smell of chemicals hit his face, and An Zhi couldn't help but sneeze.
Behind the door was a long, extremely bright passage.
The walls, ceiling, and floor were all smooth metal. Rows of white lights hung overhead, and the ground was so smooth you could see your reflection.
It's so quiet here, and so clean, so clean that it makes people feel uneasy.
The footsteps of several people echoed in the corridor, sounding particularly clear and lonely.
An Zhi felt like he had walked into a huge metal box.
There are some closed doors on both sides of the passage.
Occasionally, someone wearing a doctor's white coat would hurry by.
Their faces were hidden behind masks, revealing only a pair of eyes. When they saw Quinn, they immediately lowered their heads in a look of deep respect. When they saw An Zhi being held, curiosity or something else flashed through their eyes, but they quickly returned to that empty focus.
No one spoke, only a faint humming sound, as if hidden in the walls.
An Zhi felt very uncomfortable, and the mushroom in his arms shrank completely.
"Where is this place?" An Zhi finally couldn't help but asked the big uncle holding her in a low voice.
The big uncle's body seemed to stiffen for a moment. He didn't say anything, but subconsciously held her more firmly.
Quinn, who was walking in front, heard it, stopped, turned around, and cast a long shadow in the dazzling white light.
He bent down slightly and moved closer to An Zhi, his handsome but gloomy face very close to her.
I could smell a faint scent of cedar and tobacco on him.
"Here?" Quinn's voice was soft, coaxingly gentle.
“This is where you can be more valuable.
You are very special and we need to look at it more closely.”
An Zhi didn't understand what "value" meant.
"Don't be afraid," he straightened up, his voice returning to normal, "you will soon realize how precious you are."
After saying that, he did not stop and continued to move forward.
An Zhi buried his face completely in the big uncle's shoulder.
It's so scary here.
…She didn’t like it here. She wanted to go back to the little shack where she came from.
Or... at least back to the bright ground with "green leaves".
The little mushroom trembled in her arms.
She could feel its fear, exactly like her own.
This underground world was like a huge monster, opening its silent mouth to swallow her.
Quinn opened another door ahead, which was even thicker and had more flashing lights.
An Zhi closed his eyes and hugged the little mushroom tightly.

"This way, my lord."
A young man in a white coat came forward, with "A. Criffin" engraved on his badge.
He glanced at An Zhi with a bit of assessment, and habitually curled the corners of his mouth.
"Test subject received. Basic scanning room ready."
Criffin gestured in a direction.
Two silent soldiers replaced the guards behind Quinn, holding An Zhi's arms on the left and right.
The force was not light. An Zhi was held up, his feet almost off the ground, and dragged to the side, to an even narrower passage.
She looked at Quinn in panic.
Quinn didn't look at her. "Criffin, efficiency."
Criffin responded immediately, quickly following the soldier, and kept talking with a bit of excitement.
"Ever since you left..."
