“What are you doing at the workstation?”
"I forgot about someone," Hestad's voice was a little mechanical, "It's over there at the workstation."
…
On the way from the apartment to the workstation, Hesta borrowed a mobile phone from Yu Xuekun. She was secretly glad that she had given her communication tool to Eleven last night, otherwise she would have really lost contact now.
However, when she started entering the number, Hestad was at an impasse again. After entering the first seven digits, she couldn't remember what the next few digits were - to prevent accidents, she had carefully written down Yugali's phone number, but she didn't remember her own number. Not very careful... but who would take the trouble to memorize their own phone number?
After a day and a night of tossing, the string of numbers that had been temporarily stored in my mind had become incomplete.
Yu Xuekun saw Hesta's embarrassment, "Don't worry, there is always another way. Do you have any other information? Who are you looking for now?"
"A little girl, a native of Mei County, named Eleven, but it seems to be a pseudonym. She... looks about eight or nine years old, a bit short, thin, and very noisy... always carrying a dark blue cross-body bag , canvas, short hair, but can barely be tied up.”
Hesta tried to remember.
"By the way, she said her last name, it seems to be a very common last name..."
"Last name?"
Hesta pressed her forehead and thought for a long time.
"I can't remember clearly," Hesta frowned, "Her family was also involved in the human trafficking business. At least her mother did it... Her mother had given birth to many children, and... she had a relationship with her a few days ago. I went to Vera Care Center together several times.”
"Very good, a very specific clue." Yu Xuekun nodded, "Calm down and continue to recall. If you think about the last name again, can you remember it? This is very important."
Hesta closed her eyes tightly.
It was a single syllable, but no matter how hard Hesta recalled it, it just wouldn't come to mind.
"Zhao? Qian? Sun? Li?" Yu Xuekun tentatively said, "I can find you a watch later -"
"It's a weapon!" Hesta suddenly felt blessed. "She said her last name was a weapon... uh, a battle axe!"
"Liu?" Yu Xuekun speculated.
Hesta recognized the pronunciation almost immediately: "Yes!"
"Okay," Yu Xuekun nodded lightly, "Don't worry, let's go to the scene first."
The car quickly approached the scene of last night's accident.
Centered on the Meijun workstation, all streets within a two-kilometer radius have been closed. Yu Xuekun was able to enter as an AHgAs salesperson, but the car could only be parked outside - otherwise it would not be able to be driven out for a while.
After changing into protective clothing, Yu Xuekun went to negotiate with the garrisoned soldiers and inquired about the evacuation situation of residents in the area last night; Hesta ran all the way to the place where he asked Eleven to wait last night to check.
She knew in her heart that Eleven was definitely not where she was now, but unless she went there to see with her own eyes, she wouldn't give up.
Sure enough, the place where she and Eleven parted last night was already in ruins.
The ground was full of fallen ash and gravel. Hesta turned around and saw no obvious signs of death. Generally speaking, chelates enjoy the profuse bleeding of their prey, so the death scene of the victim is always a mess. messy.
There was no blood in this area, which was more or less good news.
Hesta sat down on the stone pier beside her. She scratched her head in slight annoyance - she had really completely forgotten about Eleven. From last night to this morning, she never thought of it once.
But where did this little girl go?
"Jane!" Yu Xuekun waved to Hesta from a distance, and Hesta immediately ran towards her.
"How's it going? Is there any news?"
"Nearly 600 households in this area were moved to a safe area last night, almost 2,000 people. The list of people is still being counted, but I have already reported the situation. A lone girl named Liu should not It's hard to find." Yu Xuekun said softly, "When there is news, the people here will contact me immediately, no later than this evening - don't worry, no civilians were killed last night. There were only a few minor injuries, all of them Adults.”
"...Thank you." Hesta breathed a long sigh of relief. Her throat moved and she wanted to say something else, but she could only repeat her words of thanks.
"This Shiyi," Yu Xuekun asked curiously, "Is this also the friend you met in Mei County these two days?"
"Yes..." Hesta nodded, "She helped me a lot."
Yu Xuekun couldn't help but laugh. Hesta looked at her and asked why.
"Before, when Qianye was giving me instructions, she specifically mentioned to me that you have very few friends. I thought that our future work might focus on your interpersonal relationships." Yu Xuekun also looked at her, "But now It seems like you know how to make friends very well. In just a few days, you have two acquaintances in a strange place - oh, even with a language barrier...how did you do that?"
"Stop making fun of me," Hestad looked away, "Where should we go next? Should we continue to go to your colleague's place?"
"Yes," Yu Xuekun smiled, "You have plenty of time, take your time."
…
After boarding Yu Xuekun's car again, Hesta could not help but guess the identity of the person in front of her. From the previous conversation between the two, Hesta guessed that she should also be a psychologist, just like Miss Valenti, but strangely Yes, Yu Xuekun can not only obtain the authority to locate specific individuals within Mei County, but also can enter and leave the chelate contaminated area very smoothly. This is not something that a pure psychological worker can do...
"Why do you keep looking at me?" This time it was Yu Xuekun who asked.
Only then did Hesta realize that she had been staring at Yu Xuekun's eyes in the rearview mirror, and she looked away awkwardly.
"Haha, what are you looking at?"
"I thought you were talking big words when you said 'anything' yesterday," Hesta replied, "What do you do for a living? Can I ask?"
"It's convenient, I... can be considered as half a mercury needle!"
"Retired?"
"No, my bullet time is too short, only 12 seconds and 47... Anyway, I will never be able to enter a combat formation in this life." Yu Xuekun replied with a smile, "I used to think it was a pity, but at least there is no risk of infection, and I also caught AHgAs General education at the base—not a loss.”
"Will it delay your job if you keep helping me find someone?"
"It's hard to say, but not at the moment." Yu Xuekun replied, "I spend most of my time on standby. I only have work to do when orders are issued from above, but as for when orders usually come out, I can't believe it... I was busy last year and the year before that, but suddenly I am idle this year.”
"Who are you responsible for in your daily work?" Hesta asked.
"Office No. 7." Yu Xuekun answered.
