If that wasn't possible, even at the risk of being criticized, he would try to make this person believe that his youngest son had died shortly after being stolen.
There will be no risk of the child being led astray and having abilities that could be used positively used in an uncontrollable direction, which would allow someone to take the child away easily.
After confirming this idea, the leader looked intently at the phone that had been hung up, and now waited for the news from the investigation by his subordinates.
There was no point in being anxious, so he put these thoughts aside and started dealing with other tasks.
The Agricultural Research Institute has not yet been able to produce a stable and reliable mutant strain that is resistant to mutant pests. The attack capabilities of the pest-resistant mutant strains currently produced are too strong.
For those with special abilities, it is still possible to farm, but now those who have the time to be farmers are ordinary people. Those with special abilities are now on the front lines and simply don’t have the time to stay in the fields to farm, so the demand for mutants is very urgent.
Before this, the crops planted in the fields were still the mutant species that had been created previously, but the mutant insects were a bit annoying.
Fortunately, although planting is difficult, the benefits are obvious.
The food grown from the mutant grains is just right for people with special abilities. It can fill their stomachs while also replenishing their spiritual energy to a certain extent.
Even ordinary people can slowly improve their physical fitness by eating it.
Before these data were presented, food itself was very important, but because the country had grain reserves from previous years, it was not very urgent. But now it has become their most urgent need.
After all, nothing is more important than the ability of the person with special abilities.
In such a chaotic world, it is good enough to ensure that one is in the middle position among the various living things in the world.
The abilities of the young Gu man from the second team had also been improved at this time. During this period, he used the mutant insects he could catch and combined them with the poisonous alien insects he had collected before to create several mutant insects with powerful abilities.
His ability has been improved, but only his attack power has been improved.
He is the only one who can control those poisonous insects. There are so many cities, counties and villages in the country, and he can barely cover them all with his hard work.
Originally, if he waited for a long time, he would be able to deal with those mutated insects by himself.
Who could have thought that while there were no problems in the Flower-Growing Country and the troubles caused by the neighboring country had not yet been resolved, the natural disasters on their side began.
They were engaged in internal strife, which led to the fact that in some places, once natural disasters occurred, the higher-ups had no intention of coming up with any solutions, allowing the disasters to spread and eventually become uncontrollable.
The uncontrollable result was that the natural disaster began to spread to the neighboring flower-growing country without being able to control it in their country.
And their natural disaster was a plague of locusts.
At the beginning of the disaster, they still had the opportunity to control it, but they did not take it seriously. Later, even if they wanted to control it, they had no way to do so. They could only harvest as much food as possible and then watch the locusts pass by.
During this time, it was not known whether it was due to the power struggles among neighboring countries, or because they were resentful of being beaten back after invading the Flower Country. Even though they knew the situation, they were rushing to harvest food and had no intention of passing the news to the Flower Country.
Finally, after seeing the locusts leave their country, they breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to continue their internal struggle.
In their fights, they did not take the people under their command into consideration at all, and did not even provide compensation for some people who lost their crops in the fields.
They allowed the people under their jurisdiction to struggle for survival in the wild among mutated animals and plants because they had lost their food, just to get a bite of food from the mutated animals and plants to ensure food for themselves and their families so that they could survive.
If this continues, it is easy to imagine that the neighboring country will begin to collapse from the grassroots level and eventually become a country eliminated by nature.
Seeing the information sent back by the border troops, the leader frowned and thought for a long time, but could not come up with a complete plan. He could only put the information aside temporarily and wait for the national top leaders to hold a meeting in the afternoon to listen to other people's opinions.
The leaders can only send people with special abilities to the border to defend and try their best to eliminate the mutated locusts when they pass through. However, there are still many places in the country that need people with special abilities to take action, and it is impossible to send all people with special abilities to the border to deal with the mutated locusts.
"I wonder if the young man from Team Two can refine all those mutated locusts into Gu and disintegrate them from the inside..."
He muttered something, but then thought that it was a bit embarrassing for others.
Even if the young Gu could refine locusts into Gu, the locust Gu refined by him alone could not fight against the tens of millions of mutated locusts raised by the neighboring country.
Shaking his head, he could only put the idea aside for the time being. If no one else could think of any practical solution during the meeting, he would have no choice but to send people with special abilities in batches to the border to carry out the mission.
There is no conclusion yet, but we have to be prepared for that possibility.
Therefore, the young Gu-making boy who had just returned from a mission with Team 2 received a separate message from his superiors, asking him to prepare some materials for refining Gu during this period of time.
I didn't say anything extra. It was obvious that since he was notified and prepared in advance, it must be a very important task that needed to be given to him, so he could prepare in advance to go to the front line.
After making up his mind, the young Gu turned around and turned off the communicator. During the rest period, he started to contact his sister. He didn't have many materials on hand and didn't have time to look for them during this period, but his sister who stayed in the village every day had a way. She had much more free time than him.
Thinking of this, the young man, who had a legitimate reason, did not delay at all and called his elder sister directly. He confidently asked his sister for a bunch of materials for making Gu. After hanging up the phone, he thought of some stocks in the hands of the elders in the village. After hesitating for a moment, he decisively called the elders one by one to say hello.
In the end, the young Gu left a lot of sweet words to his elders and took away the good materials that their elders had treasured for many years.
Fortunately, he did these things in his room. Otherwise, his teammates would not know what expression to use to express their shock if they saw that the normally weird boy also acted like a spoiled child in front of his elders.
In fact, the young Gu knew that he could get the materials so easily from his elders because his elders knew that it was dangerous outside and were afraid that something might happen to him. When he asked for something, they knew that whatever he gave it would be useful, most likely to save his life, so they gave him the materials that they had stored for so many years so easily.
Rather than being fooled by his sweet words, it would be more accurate to say that it was the elders' concern for him that made them willing to give it on their own initiative.
While the young Gu was making preparations, the leaders above were holding an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with the mutated locusts coming from the border. However, the internet was in an uproar because of videos posted online by some ordinary people at the border.
The world has become like this, and the upper echelons of the Flower-Growing Country don't even think of hiding many things.
Even the information cocoon was edited by the National Security Bureau's technical department, just to let the people know the difficulties at this stage, so that they can prepare themselves and know the importance of some public arrangements and cooperate more.
We don't expect ordinary people to take the initiative to do anything big. It's enough for them to follow the pace of the country and not cause trouble for others.
This is what is thought above and what is implemented below, which makes it easier to obtain some information online.
In addition to actively recommending videos that are popular enough, we will also actively push some very important news happening at the moment to the public.
If you want to know something, you don’t have to take the initiative to look for it. Just watching videos online is enough.
In the absence of any traffic restrictions, the videos sent by people at the border successfully stood out from the competition among numerous news data, set off a huge wave, and suddenly became the most popular, so that almost everyone who clicked on the short video today saw the related videos.
Nowadays, many people have trouble at work, in life, and even going out because the whole world is changing. The only way to make their lives smoother is to stay at home and watch current affairs videos online.
Locusts have been a disaster related to food since ancient times, let alone mutated locusts. How could such a topic not be discussed when it comes up?
It is normal to see unprecedented popularity.
At the entrance of Daxi Village, under the locust tree.
Of course, the aunts who were chatting and looking at their phones also saw these videos.
In the video, large dark swarms are flying in the sky. From a distance, it looks like a swarm of mutant locusts. Although we know that our side is far away from the border, it is very likely that the mutant locusts have been controlled by the country before they come over. What's more, there is a godmother watching over it, so there is no possibility that the food in the village will be affected.
But they are all farmers after all. When they see such videos, they feel nervous even if they are not there in person.
"Godmother, will we be okay here?"
The aunts kept mumbling to themselves, not expecting the godmother to answer. They just wanted to talk to her to feel at ease.
Ying Huai heard it but didn't respond.
I lowered my head and looked at the aunts' phones who were watching videos under the tree, and watched the entire video online.
Those are mutated locusts. Even if the mutated plants outside encounter those locusts, they will be gnawed into holes because of the large number of locusts. If those mutated locusts come over, it will be troublesome.
Ying Huai was not worried that the other party would be able to take advantage of him, but he was worried about the food grown in the surrounding towns.
At that time, if the people in the surrounding towns have no food and it takes time to replant, and the country cannot allocate enough food in a short period of time, will they ask for help from Daxi Village?
After all, the current situation of Daxi Village is more or less known to the residents living at the foot of the mountain who have gone up the mountain a few times before. When the time comes, if people come to ask for help, will Daxi Village respond or not?
If we agree, there will definitely be more than one family coming to ask for help. How can a single Daxi Village withstand it? If we don't agree, the surrounding people will be left to fend for themselves, and they may even starve to death or fight.
Ying Huai frowned and thought.
Based on his understanding of the Flower-Growing Country, the country's top leaders will definitely distribute relief food, but the changes in the world have been going on for so long, and during this period of time after the changes in animals and plants, only a small part of the food was grown by the people themselves and distributed to the market. The majority of food sold on the market now is the stock in the granaries.
If this continues, the food in the granary will not last.
The villagers of Daxi Village on the mountain were still discussing the video posted online. Mayor Xiao, who had been planning to proceed step by step, called the Daxi Village office on the mountain as soon as he saw the video.
"I've already asked my family to pick up the person you mentioned. He's halfway there now and will probably be here in three or four days. Rufeng, how about I send more people up the mountain these next few days to share the land that can be allocated to our town down there?"
He had never discussed the specific situation of the national granary with his family before, but he knew about the emergency granary in the town. If the mutated locusts were really not controlled and finally reached here, the town’s granary would not be able to hold on.
It will definitely take a lot of time for the country to distribute food to various places. In addition, only those with special abilities can move freely in the wild now, and the roads in the wild are not good. From time to time, there are mutated animals and plants blocking the way and causing a battle, which delays the time even more.
As for Mrs. Fan, whom Tang Rufeng asked Mayor Xiao to help transfer, if they had moved according to the way things were before the incident, even if they were far away, they could have taken a private car, a high-speed train, a bus, and finally walked up the mountain, which would have taken at most one day.
But in the current environment, it takes such a long time to come here from the city where Mrs. Fan is now. The long time alone is not enough, but the dangers that may be encountered on the road at any time are what are most worrying.
If Mayor Xiao's family didn't have connections and he couldn't ask the team of special abilities to pick up Mrs. Fan and her son when they came here to do the mission, it would probably be difficult for them to even set off.
Perhaps, if she hadn't known that Brother Fan was with Tang Rufeng and that she couldn't leave Tang Rufeng's side, Sister Fan would not have even had the courage to set off because she was worried about Fan Pot being too young.
"Okay, it's still the same old rule. Anyone who goes up the mountain should go to the godmother and let her take a look."
After hearing what the mayor said, Tang Rufeng thought about it and agreed.
He also saw the video online and understood why Mayor Xiao, who was only slightly anxious before, was so anxious now.
"Okay, that's for sure. We went up the mountain to seek the protection of the village godmother. We have to protect people who please our godmother."
When Mayor Xiao heard Tang Rufeng's words, he kept muttering to himself and called Ying Huai godmother. In his words, he also classified himself as one of the people protected by Ying Huai.
Tang Rufeng was speechless when he heard the mayor's words on the other end of the phone, but when he thought about the leaf his godmother had given to Mayor Xiao before, he did not refute the other party's address.
After getting the consent, Mayor Xiao took a group of people up the mountain in the afternoon and went to the locust tree to show it to him.
Ying Huai had no choice but to screen and let some people with better character stay, and let Mayor Xiao take the rest down the mountain.
People were already busy on the mountain, and half of the work had been done by now. The extra people at this time directly accelerated the reclamation work on the mountain.
After seeing the online videos and the news released by mainstream media, some villagers from Daxi Village and Shangyou Village stopped watching the town residents cultivate the land on their own and took advantage of the time after finishing their own work to follow those who were busy working and help.
Mayor Xiao was so angry that he called the offices of the two villages to express his gratitude. The next day, he asked the people who came to the mountains to work to bring some gifts to the two villages for the village heads to distribute.
After all, the villagers all volunteered to help. He didn't assign any tasks or pay them any wages. The fact that they came to help only showed that the people from the two villages were nice, so gratitude was a must.
After receiving the thanks, which came personally from the mayor, the villagers of both villages felt very relieved and were more willing to take time to help.
It's mutual. Others take them seriously, and they also take others seriously.
The fields outside the village were reclaimed quickly because the mayor added more people to the mountain and the villagers from the two villages took the initiative to take time to help. The remaining time was used to plant the mutant crops and then rebuild some of the simple houses so that they would be uninhabitable during the winter.
The world has become so horrible now. Who knows what kind of mutants will emerge in winter and catch people off guard.
The mayor was thinking about some future plans for the villages outside Shanshang Village, but before he could finish his plan, he received a call from above.
"Retrieving information?"
Listening to the words of the person on the other end of the phone, the mayor thought for a while before connecting the name on the other end with the drunkard he had recommended before.
"Can I ask what he did that requires you to check the information again?" Mayor Xiao asked.
Although Mayor Xiao didn't know the person on the other end of the phone, he knew that he was on his side and on the same front. He asked some simple questions that were not confidential, so there was no need to be so cautious.
"Tsk, you don't need to worry about the details. It's not a big deal. It's just that the information about that person needs to be more detailed."
The person on the opposite side was silent for a moment after hearing what Mayor Xiao said, and then relaxed a little.
Although he didn't say a word about the situation, he got the point across.
"Okay, I'll have someone check right away. His affairs outside might not be so detailed, but his affairs in this town and in the village when he went up the mountain are definitely detailed. Don't worry!"
Upon hearing this, Mayor Xiao relaxed a little and nodded. He did not make any positive guarantees to the drunkard himself, but he did guarantee the information he could find. It can be seen that although Mayor Xiao has not been the mayor for a long time, he still knows a lot about the things in the town, mountains and villages.
Another thing is that he should relax a little when the other party says that the drunkard thing is not a big deal.
To put it bluntly, the drunkard was still from Daxi Village on the mountain. If something really happened, it might involve the relationship between the village outside the village he built on the mountain and Daxi Village. He had to pay attention carefully.
Before his information is investigated, express your attitude to the higher-ups, so that you will have a reason to help those drunkards later.
After all, it was he who recommended the person. After confirming that the matter related to the drunkard was not a big deal, he should stand on the drunkard's side no matter what, right?
It has only been a short time since the drunkard was recommended for promotion, but he has been asked by his superiors to check detailed information. According to the current situation, there is only one possibility: either the drunkard has a chance to move up, or he has been remembered by his superiors and cannot move up, so he has to come back.
There is only a 50-50 chance after all. Knowing that it is not a big deal and will not affect himself, it is understandable that he bets that others can get on it and takes a stand in advance.
The person on the other end of the phone hung up the phone after he was sure that he had explained the situation to Mayor Xiao and that Mayor Xiao knew what to do.
After hanging up the phone, Mayor Xiao lowered his eyes and thought about the call. He pondered the tone of the person on the other end of the phone. After thinking it through, Mayor Xiao relaxed a little.
This time, the higher-ups asked them to investigate the drunkard case, and they were able to assign it directly to him. This must be due to his family connections, otherwise it wouldn't have fallen directly on him.
But he could also figure out something from the tone of the man's words just now. He must be the only one who came to check the information this time.
The person on the other end of the phone said it wasn't a big deal, but it was directly pinned on him. How could it not be a big deal? It's just that his position wouldn't be affected after the incident.
Mayor Xiao took a long breath, leaned back slightly and relaxed a little.
After he had a good rest, he began to make arrangements with his subordinates, asking them to check the town's information about the drunkard's life. After the arrangements were made, he did not let anyone go up the mountain, but turned around and called Tang Rufeng on the mountain.
Tang Rufeng was a little confused when he received the call. Mayor Xiao had a lot of things to do today. He received one call in the morning and another call in the afternoon.
After Mayor Xiao finished speaking, although Tang Rufeng did not know much about the political affairs above, he had a keen intuition and clearly felt that although this incident did not involve people around him, it was extremely important to Drunk Uncle himself.
After thinking it over, Tang Rufeng solemnly promised Mayor Xiao that all the information he handed over about the Drunk Uncle were verifiable facts and not false, and then he hung up the phone.
He turned around and started rummaging through boxes and drawers to find information about the Drunk Uncle and started organizing it.
After he had almost finished organizing the information, he looked through it himself, but did not rush to send it to the mayor at the foot of the mountain. Instead, he went out and walked towards the village entrance.
He didn't know what the drunk uncle's current condition was, but he knew that he should inform his godmother and ask her to come and help to make sure there was nothing wrong.
Holding the newly sorted information in his hands, with Luo Luo following at his feet and Captain Qing floating beside him, Tang Rufeng walked very fast, his steps as fast as the wind.
What Ying Huai saw was Tang Rufeng, who had not slept all night and was so busy that he only had time to come to him now.
Looking at the information he handed to him, although the light was insufficient at night, it did not affect Ying Huai's reading speed at all.
After reading through all the information, Ying Huai began to calculate things about the drunkard.
As I said, if the higher-ups send people to check for drunks, anyone would think something is wrong, but it’s not clear whether it’s positive or negative.
Presumably, Tang Rufeng came to Ying Huai to look at the information because he wanted Ying Huai to judge the bias of his organization of the information.
If it was negative, he wouldn't need to do anything extra when organizing the information, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to the drunk uncle who was already in trouble.
If it's positive, then his bias won't have any impact, and it can even make things go more smoothly for Drunk Uncle.
Ying Huai was concentrating on guessing things, and when he looked up he saw Tang Rufeng looking at him expectantly, waiting for his answer.
Ying Huai: “…”
He hadn't made up his mind about what to say or what decision to make. His calculations were similar to what Mayor Xiao and Tang Rufeng had guessed.
The only way he could be more certain was to ask Tang Rufeng to report the information without any bias, so as to avoid mistakes and it would also be good for the drunkard.
[Don't be biased, just submit normally, there's nothing negative about him.]
Ying Huai thought about it for a while, and after he came to this conclusion, he told it to Tang Rufeng who was waiting under the tree.
"Godmother, can you tell me why they want this information?"
After knowing what to do, Tang Rufeng nodded to indicate that he understood, but he did not leave after knowing what happened. Instead, he continued to wait under the tree and asked this question.
The mayor hadn't said anything when he contacted him before, and he wasn't sure whether he knew, so it was not easy to ask for details. After all, he was generally on the side of the drunkard, and knowing too much would inevitably make people think it was a bad thing, so he simply didn't ask.
But now facing his godmother, he really had no problem asking. As long as it didn't affect anything, his godmother would basically tell them according to past experience.
[It's about the children.]
Ying Huai had roughly figured it out when he was calculating just now. Ying Huai didn't give the specific details, but he still figured it out roughly.
That was why Ying Huai asked Tang Rufeng to divination several more times and finally asked him to hand in the information normally. Since it was a child that the drunkard had been looking for for so many years, it was never too cautious.
Tang Rufeng's biggest guess before was that after Drunkard was promoted from the town to the second-tier team, he might have been noticed by the higher-ups, and now they were preparing to promote Drunkard again, so they investigated him in more detail.
I really didn't expect that Uncle Drunkard, who had been searching for so many years without any clue, would get a clue in such a chaotic period. Judging from what is said above, there must be something wrong with the child, so Uncle Drunkard had this experience.
[Go back, don't be biased.]
Seeing that Tang Rufeng understood, Ying Huai let him go back. Seeing that he was a little worried about the drunkard, he gave him some advice.
Tang Rufeng nodded and turned back. Captain Qingzhi, who was standing beside him, nodded again in the direction of Ying Huai, indicating that he would keep an eye on it and told Ying Huai not to worry and that there would be no mistakes.
With the double protection, although Ying Huai was not worried about the trouble happening on Tang Rufeng's side, he still felt more at ease.
Everything that needs to be done has been done, and the final outcome depends solely on the decision above.
However, they have come to this point, and the drunkard himself did not do anything wrong. Before a fair decision is made from the higher-ups, Ying Huai is going to go and have a chat with them.
Although Ying Huai has not transformed and cannot leave the village for the time being, Ali and Hu Hu have eight legs and can run.
Thinking of this, Ying Huai turned his attention to the locust tree leaf hanging on Ali Cat's head, ready to see where Ali was and what condition he was in.
Seeing that Ali and Hu Hu were digging the spirit stones very seriously, Dou Dou was almost full of spirit stones. Seeing that they were about to return, he finally felt relieved.
With the development of the Internet, the government's intranet is even faster, and the information search work sent by the leaders above is submitted in a short time.
In addition to the one submitted by Mayor Xiao, there was another later investigation document, which was specifically sent by the higher-ups to check.
The purpose is to compare the two reports so that people like Mayor Xiao won't be biased when submitting the investigation materials, which will influence the decisions of those above them. The two reports will be different when compared, as they are completely investigated from different perspectives by two different parties, so there will be no bias.
After the leader finished reading the document, he was silent for a moment, then turned around and sent the document to the person who could play a decisive role in the incident, asking the other person to take a look as well.
Although he didn't say anything, the balance in his heart leaned towards the drunkard.
He has been able to wander for so many years for a child who is not sure whether he is still alive, even though his family is broken and he is the only one left in the family. Although he is a little decadent, he has never done anything to let down this society.
What's more, when he has extra money, he would sell some things and send them to nearby orphanages with poor conditions. This shows that he is a relatively decent person and would not lead the child astray just because he is the child's relative.
Since what they were worried about at the beginning would not happen, and with them watching from the side, there would be no possibility of the child going astray, so what if they let the father and son recognize each other?
"All the things that have happened lately have been bad, and there haven't been many good things. This incident can barely be considered a happy event, so why not have some fun together?"
After making the decision, the leader discussed it with others, mainly with the Taoist priest. After confirming that the other party had the same idea as him, he called the captain of the third team and asked him to take the child to find someone.
They knew all the information they needed to know in the early stages, and even though they were 80% sure that the child was theirs, they still needed to do a paternity test in the end.
Why not do the identification first and then investigate others? This thing itself is evidence. Although it is done by the official, it can be guaranteed that it will not be leaked. However, there are still some abnormal people lurking in the country.
Although they know that things are not going well abroad, they are either siding with their own country or have been licking others' boots for a long time. Even though they know that things are getting chaotic abroad, they can no longer turn back. The sunk costs are too high, they don't want to give up, and they can't go back, so they can only stir up trouble.
There is no guarantee that those people will not come up with something after the identification. After all, the child is still young. Even though there are people watching around, there are still people who are willing to take advantage of the opportunity.
If any problems are discovered, they will regret it too late, so they put the identification at the last step.
After the drunkard had been eating and drinking in that room for a few days, he saw the child being held by a member of Team 3 and sitting on someone's shoulders when they came to pick him up.
"Hello, our child really likes you. Shall we go to the Ability Medical Center for an evaluation?"
The members of Team 3 laughed and waved to the drunkard, motioning him to follow them, then turned around and left, holding the child in one hand.
The Medical Center for People with Special Abilities was established with special funding from the higher-ups after the people with special abilities were discovered. It houses people from the research institute as well as the country's top medical personnel. It is designed to provide protection for those people with special abilities who are on the front lines every day, dealing with mutated animals and plants, and risking their lives at any time.
Since its establishment, it has saved many people whose lives were hanging by a thread.
It can be said that the medical equipment in the Ability Medical Center is the most comprehensive and advanced in the entire country.
A small paternity test is the smallest thing.
I followed the three teams ahead to the Ability Medical Center and completed the preliminary blood draws and other procedures. After waiting for less than an hour, the report arrived on the communication bracelet.
If you want paper documents, you can just print them out on the medical machine in the lobby.
Looking at the result on the bracelet, the drunk man was in disbelief. He turned to look at the child, then looked down at the bracelet on his hand. Finally, he seemed to dislike the small screen of the bracelet. He was afraid that he had seen it wrong, so without waiting to talk to the child, he turned around and ran towards the lobby of the medical center, straight to the report printing machine.
"Brother, what happened to uncle?"
The child shook the bracelet that had just received the message. He could not read well and was still a semi-illiterate child who only knew simple fonts and addition and subtraction. He imitated the drunkard and looked down at the bracelet for a long time, but could not make out anything. He turned around and saw the drunkard running outside. He looked up at the team member of Team 3 who was holding him in confusion.
"He was so excited and happy."
The members of Team 3 watched people running out, and after hearing the child's question, they reached out and rubbed the child's head.
Before he could explain in detail to the child, he saw the person who had just run away running back, holding a stack of reports in his hand, and rushing straight towards him.
There was a wall behind him and a chair next to him. He wanted to dodge but couldn't react in time and was pounced on. He fell against the wall and only then did he manage to get rid of the momentum.
"Oh my god, uncle, you really are my uncle. Hey, be careful, or you might give your son a concussion."
A member of the third team was hit on the head by the wall behind him. Fortunately, the child in his arms was protected by the hands of the drunkard who pounced on him and was not hit as well.
So, he was the only one who suffered. He rubbed the back of his head. Fortunately, he was a person with special abilities and his physical strength had increased. In other words, he had a thick skin.
After this collision, there wasn't even a bump on the back of my head, just a dull pain, which went away after I rubbed it.
Although he was fine, he was still bumped into, and he kept muttering and blaming the drunk who had just held his son and then realized what a stupid thing he had done and was standing awkwardly beside him.
The child who was carried by the drunkard curiously felt the feeling of being held by the drunkard. He did not feel uncomfortable and turned to look at the members of Team 3 with peace of mind.
"Brother, give it a rub, and it won't hurt anymore."
She stretched out her hand and, while being held at a high height, snored continuously on her brother's head opposite her.
It can be seen that the child is trying very hard to take advantage of others and comfort them.
In the past, when the child fell or was accidentally injured, the members of Team 3 would comfort him in this way after his wound was treated. Now he also learned to comfort him in the same way as the uncles and brothers in the team, and tried hard to comfort his brother who had hit his head.
The older brother of Team 3, whose head was snored by the child, was speechless and reached out to snore back at the child.
"Okay, your dad didn't do it on purpose. Do you need me to follow you?"
After snoring the child, the team member turned around and asked the drunkard.
There was no need to explain it too clearly, the drunk guy also understood what the other person meant. He asked if he needed him to follow him and told the drunk guy about the child's recent situation.
From the fact that the child can appear in the third team and become the youngest member of the third team, we know that the child’s family conditions must be not good, otherwise, under the premise that the superiors attach so much importance to the child, they would let the child follow a first-line team around.
You know, the front-line teams are facing extremely dangerous mutant animals and plants, either they are pioneering, or mutant animals and plants with strong abilities, or newly emerged mutant animals and plants whose combat habits are unknown and require combat to gain a thorough understanding and store data.
All of these tasks are associated with danger and danger may occur at any time.
When a child follows them, even if the child is taken care of by the entire team and is strong enough, it is inevitable that he or she will get injured occasionally.
So the drunk wanted to know about the child, but he was afraid that if he just asked the child, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.
He wanted to know more details, and tried to use the narration from other people to know everything about the child's past, so as to put himself in the child's past.
"Okay, come back to Team Three with me, okay?"
Seeing the drunk nod, the team member did not hesitate, turned around and led the way.
They didn't have any injuries on their bodies now, and staying in this medical center would just take up space. It would be better for them to go back to Team 3. The egg custard he steamed for the children this morning was still in the steamer. It would be a good time to eat it if they went back now.
Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at the drunkard, and saw that he was holding the child very carefully, fearing that the child would be uncomfortable in his holding. The child was also lying safely on his shoulders. He turned around with peace of mind and walked quickly in front, leading the way.
"As expected of a biological child, I've only met him a few times, yet he's closer to me than I am to me."
He muttered softly, his tone sour, but he didn't show it in front of the father and son behind him. After all, they were father and son who had just met, and he didn't want to be a light bulb.
But he forgot while muttering that they were all people with special abilities, their physical fitness was enhanced and their hearing was also enhanced.
Although he lowered his voice to the lowest level, the child did not hear clearly and tilted his head to look at him in confusion. However, the adult could vaguely hear it and turned to look at the child in his arms. He could not help but curl his lips and rubbed the child's cheek with his head tilted.
The child who was inexplicably rubbed put aside his doubts. He himself was a person with psychic abilities and had very sharp perceptions. He felt the closeness conveyed by the drunkard, turned around and imitated the other's actions and rubbed back.
The team member who turned around and was about to say a few words to the drunkard turned around and saw this scene, and felt even more jealous.
Suanjiji turned around and without saying a word, led his men to the location of Team 3. As soon as he arrived, he nodded to the captain who was waiting in the hall and went straight to the kitchen.
Although they have a dedicated kitchen and hired an aunt to clean up and cook when they are busy, they do their own things most of the time.
For example, the egg custard that the child had today was made by the team member’s brother himself.
"Come, eat the egg custard and talk while you eat."
The food was brought out and placed directly on the table in the living room without going to the dining room.
There is a small stool next to the coffee table in the living room. Children can sit on the stool and eat the food on the coffee table by themselves.
When no one from the normal team came, the people from Team 3 were used to eating at the coffee table with the children.
The drunkard watched silently as the child dragged a small stool from beside the sofa and sat down to eat with great familiarity, a light flashing in his eyes.
When he raised his eyes again, he looked closer at the three teams around him.
He was puzzled before as to why the higher-ups would allow such a young child to go on a mission with a front-line team.
I thought it was because of the child's strong ability that he was recruited by Team 3, and since they happened to be short of people, I agreed.
It's inevitable to think too much when you first come into contact with it.
But now, looking at the child's appearance, even though he hadn't heard the other party talk about the child, he had already admitted that the other party was not the kind of person who would selfishly bring a child to the front line for the benefit of his own team.
He believed that something must have happened that forced them to take their children to the front line.
"We didn't know this kid at first. We only came into contact with him during a mission with Team Three..."
Although the drunkard's expression was restrained, it could still be concealed in the eyes of the other less experienced people in Team 3. However, for the captain of Team 3, who was of his age and often came into contact with people with sharp minds like sieves, this concealment was not enough and it was easy for him to see what the other party was thinking.
But in a short period of time, the other party changed his attitude. Although he didn't understand what the other party had figured out, he was still very happy that they could get along harmoniously.
Although the child has not been with Team Three for long, they have taken good care of and raised the child, so it is not surprising that they have feelings for him.
He also didn't want the child to become estranged from them after recognizing his biological father.
I just don’t understand what the arrangement is. After the child recognizes his biological father, will he still be listed in the third team?
"Because this child had parents before, and they never took their children to the official authorities to collect blood samples, so there was no match with you in the kinship system. Later, our team rescued you, but the higher-ups were hesitant and didn't upload the sample, so it's been delayed until now."
