Chapter 109 Xie Tu's Home
The townspeople didn't know much about Yun Zhao.
They didn't ask, and Yun Zhao never mentioned it.
She would occasionally stay away from home for a few days, and everyone assumed she lived in the inner city.
The two boys were somewhat surprised to hear that she was leaving the base alone.
He Xiang asked, "What is Sister Yun Zhao going to do outside the city?"
Yun Zhao didn't intend to keep it a secret any longer; they would find out sooner or later anyway. "I'm going to the training ground, which is where the S-rank sentries live. Don't worry, it's very safe."
The two boys gasped. "S-rank... Sentinel?"
Legendary figures are too far removed from their lives.
I never expected that Sister Yun Zhao would know him!
Seeing the two of them looking completely unsophisticated, Yun Zhao couldn't help but ask, "You two don't even know my guide level yet, do you?"
Is the reaction really that slow?
As the only S-class guide in the world, the two of them spent every day with her without ever making a fuss.
Xie Tu is also an S-class Sentinel, but he is one of only three.
Is it really worth them both making that expression?
The little bluebird couldn't be bothered to pay attention to these two hotheads.
[Intellectual disability.]
He Xiang scratched his head. "We have guesses, but we're not sure..."
Or rather, they couldn't believe it.
The first suspicion was placed in contaminated area 102.
After the Great Bluebird appeared, they saw a phoenix covered in flames, which looked very similar to the Great Bluebird, only different in color.
The second time was after arriving at the base. The leaders of the Dawn Base were extremely friendly, offering both housing and land.
The sentries in town had discussed this matter in private.
However, no one dared to go to Sister Yun Zhao to confirm.
That's an S-rank guide! They couldn't believe it in their wildest dreams that Qingshan Town had produced a unique S-rank guide!
Yun Zhao turned his head and looked out the window at the street. "It's good that you know it in your heart, but don't tell anyone else."
She didn't want to be too high-profile.
"Know!"
Cheng Dongqing drove to the security checkpoint at the base entrance.
People and vehicles entering and leaving the city from the Shuguang base are required to undergo inspection.
Yun Zhao usually rides in Zero Team's armored vehicles, and the sentries on duty at the gate let her through from afar. Except for the day she came to Dawn Base, this was the first time she had gone through a security check.
The passenger window had just been opened.
The little blue bird stared intently at the inspecting sentry with its icy blue beast eyes, arrogantly raising its head with an expression that said, "You dare to try opening the car door?"
Despite Qingluan's impatient gaze, the sentries quickly carried out their inspection.
The identity of the S-class guide was not disclosed to the public.
However, many of the senior sentry units, especially those on duty outside, have already seen the Azure Phoenix.
This matter has spread far and wide within the high-ranking sentinel circle.
The little guy has a fiery temper and is extremely aggressive; you can almost tell at a glance that he's the type to curse at anyone he meets.
The vehicle quickly passed through security.
The A-level sentries on duty only breathed a sigh of relief after she rolled up the car window.
The spiritual body of an S-rank guide... is indeed different!
The training ground is located on the hillside outside the base.
Following the route indicated by Yun Zhao, Cheng Dongqing drove the car to the perimeter of the training ground within a few minutes.
The two boys were curious, but dared not go in rashly, for fear of disturbing the S-class sentinel.
"Sister Yunzhao, we'll head back now." Cheng Dongqing asked worriedly, "Do you need us to pick you up tonight?"
Yun Zhao opened the car door and got out. "No need, you guys go ahead and do your work."
"Okay, sure."
He Xiang and Cheng Dongqing did not linger. After watching her enter the training field, they drove down the mountain and returned to the base.
The legendary S-class Sentinels are too far removed from their lives; they're not in the same circle, and too much contact with them wouldn't do them any good.
*
Yun Zhao walked around the various training grounds and found that there was no one there.
The dinner party was scheduled for the evening.
There's no training today; everyone's not here yet.
She walked to the row of bungalows, intending to sit in the training room for a while, but found that the door was locked and could not be opened.
It was midday, and the sunlight was intense; she couldn't possibly wait until evening in the open-air training ground.
Yun Zhao thought for a moment, then went around to the back of the training room and headed towards the back mountain.
As you descend the winding path, nestled among the green trees, a two-story white building stands quietly in the valley.
That was Xie Tu's home.
Yun Zhao pushed open the fence surrounding the low stone wall, stepped forward and knocked on the door, wanting to get the key to the training room from Xie Tu.
Xie Tu is a very territorial person, and even his teammates will not go to his home.
Because it will leave a smell.
S-class Sentinels have heightened senses; their noses are even more sensitive than a dog's, allowing them to detect scents that ordinary people cannot.
The presence of unfamiliar smells in their home makes them feel very uncomfortable.
Therefore, Yun Zhao did not intend to go in.
The door opened quickly.
The man appeared at the door dressed in casual clothes, black pants and a white shirt. He looked less sharp and cold, and more relaxed.
Xie Tu didn't seem surprised that it was her outside the door. He stepped aside and said, "Come in."
Before Yun Zhao could refuse, he had already turned and gone into the house.
Yun Zhao: "?"
Xie Tu went inside and came out again with a pair of disposable slippers. "We haven't had any guests at home. I took these from the warehouse last time."
Yun Zhao was indeed curious about the S-class sentinel's residence, so he didn't refuse and changed his shoes before entering the house.
The little bluebird was also very curious, and after entering, it stretched its neck and looked around.
The walls of the house are made of special soundproofing material, which shuts out all sound when the door is closed.
Because the curtains were drawn, the room was somewhat dimly lit.
The living room that came into view was very large, at least three times the size of her house.
All the furniture, including sofas, coffee tables, chairs, and stools, is made of solid wood without any paint; it's all natural.
Yun Zhao understood at a glance.
Wood is a natural material and does not produce an irritating odor, thus reducing discomfort for the sentries.
She didn't know much about wood and couldn't tell what kind of wood it was.
"It's poplar wood, with a faint grassy scent, but the aroma has dissipated over time, so you definitely won't be able to smell it."
Xie Tu poured her a glass of water and casually asked, "Why did you come so early?"
Yun Zhao didn't want to stand there idly, so he simply walked over to the wooden sofa and sat down. "I had nothing to do at home, so I came over to see if all the supplies have been delivered."
Xie Tu looked up at her. "A batch came back a couple of days ago and is piled up in the warehouse at the training ground. But the warehouse is full now, so we may need to rent two large warehouses in the inner city to store them."
There are often outsiders in the outer city area, and leaving such a large amount of supplies there would be an incentive to commit a crime.
Although warehouses in the inner city are a bit more expensive, they are safer.
"Understood." Yun Zhao is extremely wealthy now. Not counting the reward from this mission, he has over 60,000 yuan in his account, enough to afford the cost of renting a warehouse.
She was about to ask about the diary.
But Xie Tu said, "Qi Ling's family member is a senior researcher at the Hope Base. I went to great lengths last night to get his contact information, but I haven't contacted him yet."
Yun Zhao was slightly taken aback. "He really does have family members still alive?"
Xie Tu hummed in agreement and sat down opposite her. "It should be pretty close. That researcher Qi's great-great-great-grandmother's surname was Qi, and his great-great-grandfather took his mother's surname. His great-great-great-grandmother should be one of Qi Ling's twin sisters."
Yun Zhao was a little confused. How high was Qi Ling's seniority?
Qi Ling is already acting like an ancestor.
"It's not surprising. Two hundred years is a long time. Considering that a generation spans 20 to 30 years, it's normal for it to last for six or seven generations."
Xie Tu said, "There's another matter. The Dawn Base heard that you provided psychological counseling to Jiang Mu and would like to trouble you to provide counseling for their S-rank Sentinel, Fu Heng."
S-class Sentinels' mental domains are not very stable.
Excessive information overwhelms perception, making the mental realm highly susceptible to upheaval.
There is now an S-rank guide who can guide S-rank sentries.
The Fumo team had just emerged from the contaminated area when the Dawn Base received the news and immediately contacted Minister Duan.
"Minister Duan wants to ask you first. If you agree, she will then notify Fu Heng to come over."
