Shen Xingwan blinked, looking very serious.
"I promise Uncle San that even though I have a Class C Hunter License, I will never go out on missions. If Uncle San is worried, he only needs to tell the mission center."
Shen Xingwan's words touched Xu Jin's heart. This was indeed what he was most worried about.
And the method proposed by Shen Xingwan is indeed feasible.
As long as he doesn't leave the base, he can ensure Shen Xingwan's safety.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Jin finally took a step back. If there was a way, he didn't want to go against the boss's wishes.
Xu Jin took off a transparent crystal from his earlobe and handed it to Shen Xingwan.
"This is a signal device made of minerals mined from outer space. Your grandfather and I are the only ones in the base who have it. You carry it with you. With this little thing, you can transmit information even in places with poor signal quality, just in case."
Shen Xingwan looked at the small transparent thing placed in her palm in surprise. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't even be able to notice it.
"But you give this to me, what will you do with yourself?"
Xu Jin smiled and pointed to his other ear: "I still have one here, don't worry, and the place where Uncle San is going is very developed, there is no need for this thing at all. If you don't keep it, Uncle San will have to send someone to take you home."
Shen Xingwan hesitated for a while, but finally accepted it.
Xu Jin ordered a small cake, a new product from the store, for Shen Xingwan. After paying the bill, he planned to leave. But just as he was about to leave, Shen Xingwan grabbed his sleeve.
He looked at the serious expression in the little girl's face as she looked at him, and he actually had the illusion that the boss was in front of him.
But on second thought, the girl in front of him was just an eighteen-year-old girl, a few years younger than his daughter Mengmeng. He must be overthinking it.
So he smiled and said, "What's wrong? Is the cake not to your taste? Tell your uncle what you want to eat and he will buy it for you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the little girl still looked serious and spoke.
"Uncle San, nothing in this world is more important than your own life. If the White family wants to use your life to vent their anger, or use your life to threaten Al-Qaeda, forget it and run!"
The smile disappeared from Xu Jin's face little by little, and finally only surprise remained.
"Wanwan, how do you know I...?"
Shen Xingwan coughed lightly and looked away: "I guessed it. Wasn't I there when Grandpa talked to you about this matter before? Seeing that you haven't left the base, I think you need to go there."
Xu Jin breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it is.
A smile crept back onto Xu Jin's face. "Thank you, Wanwan, for reminding me. I'll remember it. I'll bring some Finnish elk jerky for Wanwan when I get back. You kids love these snacks the most!"
"Okay!" Shen Xingwan agreed sweetly.
However, looking at Xu Jin's leaving back, Shen Xingwan felt inexplicably uneasy for some reason.
Three days later, Xu Jin set off.
Before leaving, he sent a message to the mission center, locking Shen Xingwan's C-level hunter license and not allowing this license to perform any missions.
At the same time, he went to the hunter training base and gave a pack of Lucky Special cigarettes to his old friend Edward, the person in charge of hunter training.
Looking at the ruby inlaid on the cigarette case, Edward raised his eyebrows and said, "This thing is rare. Are you willing to give it to me?"
Xu Jin smiled and said, "My wife doesn't like me smoking, so I quit."
Edward narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice: "Have you accepted another particularly dangerous mission?"
Xu Jin didn't hide it and nodded. He knew Edward wouldn't ask.
Everyone in the base understood that no mission was safe, only more dangerous, especially for high-level hunters like them.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of sister-in-law and Mengmeng for you when you are not around."
Xu Jin nodded gratefully: "There's another person I want you to look after for me."
"Who?" Edward was a little surprised.
"Do you remember the name Shen Xingwan?" Xu Jin asked.
Edward thought for a moment. "Now I remember, she's a C-rank new hunter, right? She's so skinny, but I didn't expect her to pass the test."
"Wait, this isn't the girl you asked me to look after for you?"
Xu Jin nodded.
"She, who is she to you? An illegitimate daughter? Xu, don't blame me for scolding you. Your sister-in-law is such a good person..." Edward frowned.
Xu Jin patted Edward on the shoulder, interrupting Edward's imagination and said with a smile.
"What are you imagining? How could I possibly have given birth to such a precious princess? This was originally something the eldest brother asked me to do. I have to be away for a while, so..."
"Boss!" This time, Edward's mouth opened almost to his ears.
He belatedly remembered the scandal in the base and took a long time to ask the question tactfully.
"Is Shen Xingwan related to the boss?"
Xu Jin thought about it and realized that Wanwan was the eldest brother's granddaughter, so they were naturally related. So he nodded and said, "That's right. So, I have no choice but to ask you for help."
Edward seemed to be greatly stimulated. After a while, he responded: "Okay, okay, I understand. God, Jehovah, this is too terrible!..."
…
Winter goes and summer comes, and a year passes in the blink of an eye.
The center of the base, which had been silent for a long time, was finally greeted by a wave of cheers that resounded through the sky.
"Welcome, Boss!"
"Boss, you're finally back!"
"Boss, even if you're not here, we haven't let up even for a single day!"
Someone on the side laughed and said, "Of course we can't let our guard down, otherwise we old people will lose face if the younger generation overtakes us!"
Luo Xuanshen smiled and responded to everyone: "Why, has the base trained a new outstanding hunter?"
"That's right. The number of qualified hunters this year is twice that of last year, and it's the largest round in the past five years. Edward is issuing licenses to them right now!"
Hearing this, Luo Xuanshen was a little surprised. There were not many new people recruited to the training base this year, even fewer than last year. How could the number of qualified people be more than last year?
And it’s twice as much!
But these are not what Luo Xuanshen cares about most. What he cares about most is his precious granddaughter.
The news of his return today was sent to the base an hour ago, and his wife Wanwan should have heard it, but now he looked around the place and didn't see any sign of his precious granddaughter.
Luo Xuanshen frowned. Could something have happened?
"Where is Xu Jin? Why can't I see him?" Luo Xuanshen asked the people around him.
The man scratched his head and said, "Boss, you may not know this yet, but my third brother went on a mission more than half a year ago and hasn't come back yet."
Luo Xuanshen narrowed his eyes instantly and had a bad feeling in his heart.
He strode towards his office and turned on the panel receiver.
There was indeed a letter in it that Xu Jin had left for him more than half a year ago.
