"Uh... not really."
Seeing Xiao Yu looking like an adventurous baby, ng Lang raised a finger and instructed seriously.
"Once we’re inside, listen more and speak less. Do as I told you before. If you have questions, ask them later. Understand?"
Xiao Yu nodded, "So, are we just going in like this?"
"Hold on, put this on first..."
ng Lang said, taking out a pink "helt" from a bulging backpack and putting it on Xiao Yu’s head, then he pulled out a black adult-sized ordinary motorcycle helt and wore it himself.
"Click!"
The black visors blocked their faces, and only then did ng Lang nod with satisfaction.
He then took out his phone and dialed a number using a zero-encryption algorithm...
"Hello, Mr. Hu, it’s ..."
...
Soon after, a camouflage military jeep roared out from the base, quickly bringing the two into the base, where they t Mr. Hu, who had an odd expression.
"How did you find this place?"
"Of course, I followed the navigation to get here."
"Whose navigation can even mark a military restricted zone..."
It’s known that the "Silent Hill" base is strictly confidential to the outside world, and he had never shared its exact location with ng Lang, yet the latter could pinpoint it precisely...
"Well, I don’t know either. You know I’m just an errand-running outsider in the logistics departnt."
"Haha..."
Looking at ng Lang, fully wrapped up, with a black helt on his head, Mr. Hu was a bit helpless.
He knew it was a deliberate disguise by ng Lang to keep his identity hidden as the setting was bustling with people, but...
His gaze moved from ng Lang to the little girl beside him, curiously glancing around.
So you ca, but why bring a 1.2-ter one along?
This is a serious military restricted zone, where extrely dangerous unknown entities are held. It’s not a fall outing area for elentary schoolers!
"Who is this..."
"Oh, this is our logistics departnt’s special expert, here specifically to help this ti."
Mr. Hu’s expression turned even weirder.
Logistics departnt... special expert?
The age is indeed special enough...
Should I praise your eclectic use of talent, or condemn you for illegal child labor?
You were just fervently criticizing the enforcent of the labor law, weren’t you?
"Cough! Where’s ’the thing’?" ng Lang, not intending to explain Xiao Yu’s uniqueness to Mr. Hu, got straight to the point.
Talking business, Mr. Hu imdiately beca serious, signaling the staff to open a monitor.
The screen showed a transparent glass room on all sides, where a little girl sat on the edge of a bed, swinging her legs, enjoying a lollipop while watching "Hachi: A Dog’s Tale."
"As per your request, it has been guided back into a ’human’ body, trying to create a dependent living environnt.
Can’t say it had no effect at all, at least it’s no longer averse to simple communication and hasn’t shown initial aggressiveness.
However, to ensure it cooperates obediently, it will probably take quite so ti," Mr. Hu said helplessly.
"If it weren’t for your repeated emphases, I would’ve already considered using so special interrogation thods.
With things dragging on like this, we’re probably the ones enduring more than it..."
ng Lang nodded; endurance is mutual.
The thing inside seed to have beco complacently lost, just as it hoped to endure until reinforcents from outside ca to rescue it.
Now it was a matter of who could achieve their goal first...
Beside him, Xiao Yu watched the screen, looking at the little girl similar in age to her with curiosity in her eyes.
This should be the target the uncle ntioned, but...
"The thing"? "Enter the body"?
What are these adults really talking about?
This just looks like a perfectly ordinary little girl, no?
"Mr. Hu, we need to have a close encounter with the subject, please assign soone to take us there," ng Lang said.
"Close encounter?"
Mr. Hu frowned, staring at ng Lang for a full three seconds before slowly nodding.
To be honest, he also wanted to see what exactly ng Lang planned to do this ti.
"Major General Chu, take your n for a security escort, ensure safety."
"Yes!"
...
Monts later, under the escort of ard "Demon Hunting Team" mbers, ng Lang and Xiao Yu walked down a long underground passage towards the special enclosed building where the target was enclosed.
"Tap tap tap~"
Inside the corridor, only the faint sound of footsteps filled the air, making the atmosphere slightly solemn.
ng Lang kept staring at the handso and mighty-looking Chu Tian beside him, scrutinizing him closely.
Being stared at all the way by a "helted man" felt a bit odd.
Chu Tian turned his head expressionlessly.
He wanted to see the man’s face inside the helt through the black visor, but all he could see was the reflection of the corridor lights.
"Haha! You’re Major General Chu Tian, right? I’ve heard of you."
Though they had quite the connection in several lifetis in books, it was his first ti eting the person in reality, so he couldn’t help but take an extra look.
"Hmm?" Chu Tian was taken aback. "You know ?"
Then, as if realizing sothing, he understood.
"Oh, Mr. ’Black Cat’ must have told you? So you’re his superior?"
During the battle at the orphanage, he’d briefly collaborated with Ning Shisan, so he was quite curious about the miraculous "organization" Ning spoke of.
Mr. Hu apparently knew the man’s identity but refrained from asking due to confidentiality policies.
However, since ng Lang brought it up, he didn’t mind inquiring indirectly about the organization’s substance.
"Not a superior, just a fellow enthusiast."
"Oh, how’s he doing lately?"
"He’s fine. Just got back from a near-death experience, probably on a phone marathon with his girlfriend now."
"Uh... well, that’s truly a cause for celebration."
"And what about Major General Chu Tian? Staying here so long, the kids at ho must be anxious to see you, right?"
Chu Tian paused, how did the conversation drift to his family matters?
Moreover, he never ntioned being married or having kids, did he?
However, ntioning his child brought a rare hint of longing to his face.
"Yes, a soldier’s duty is to obey orders, but I trust Xiao Nan will understand his father when he grows up."
"Indeed! One look at Major General Chu and anyone can tell, the son of a tiger is no ordinary cub; he will surely beco a heroic figure in the army in the future.
By the way, is he called Xiao Nan? How did he get that na?" ng Lang gossiped.
"Oh, our Old Man nad him. He’s quite the dictator, my wife and I couldn’t oppose him," Chu Tian said, a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"Uh... may I ask what Old Man’s na is?"
Chu Tian gave the dark helt a peculiar look.
Why did this guy keep asking like he was probing intelligence?
Besides, why the never-ending curiosity about our Old Chu Family’s affairs?
After hesitating for a mont, "Father goes by the na Truman."
"Oh~" ng Lang nodded.
Indeed, the na is quite distinctive.
But after pondering for a mont, he suddenly realized sothing.
Chu Nan... Chu Tian... Truman...
Hiss~
No wonder!
Turns out the future planning docunts of the army were written by your family!
With nas like these, it’s destined for Xiao Nan to stand out and lead!
