He Yuxia, who had just woken up, seemed a little confused and looked at her surroundings blankly.
The temporary residence of the "Forgotten One" is naturally not as comfortable as her original residence. It is just a simple house. It is not even an exaggeration to say it is simple - after all, no one wants to live here for the rest of their lives. Not far away is the City of Night Sin. Well, it’s better to dig more ore and reach the target as soon as possible...
But that wasn't what she focused on. Instead, after looking around, she saw Shen He sitting and watching.
"You, who are you..."
He Yuxia suddenly became alert, her mind sobered up a lot, and she shrank back.
"you're awake?"
Chen He came back to his senses after hearing this, and quickly calmed her down, "Girl, don't be nervous, I... am not a bad person."
"That's not necessarily true. Bad people say they are not bad people."
He Yuxia was still vigilant.
"..."
Shen He was speechless. How do you want me to answer this?
Fortunately, Miss He Er seemed to be reacting to stress. She sat blankly for a while, completely regained consciousness and smoothed over the situation here.
"Is this the residence of the "Forgotten"? "
She asked tentatively, "I remember that I seemed to be attacked by something, and then I lost consciousness...Did you save me?"
"When I saw the girl, she was fainting near the mine outside the station."
Shen He nodded, then shook his head, "As for an attack, it's unlikely. The doctor's examination said that you inhaled an overdose of "rust mist" in a short period of time, and your body couldn't adapt to it, so you fell into coma... You should have seen hallucinations because of this. "
This is true.
Even outside the city, there is no possibility of being attacked. Are there still wild beasts?
The answer is no, most animals cannot survive in the "Rust Mist", and there is no mutation or anything. Only a small number of animals are left in captivity, raised as pets and eat meat, raised in the City of Night Sin, "the Forgotten" Also raise.
And the "Forgotten Ones" will not be stupid enough to do anything extraordinary - although Zhao Yuan does things without thinking, he will restrain his subordinates at this juncture, otherwise there will be no good fruits to eat, and the same is true for the other second-in-commands who make decisions. in this way.
Of course, it cannot be said that there are absolutely no brave people who are not afraid of death, but at least I have not encountered this woman in front of me.
"That's right..."
He Yuxia blinked and then breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I really have to thank you, otherwise I would have died here without knowing anything."
"You're welcome girl."
Chen He smiled and said, feeling that this woman was silly and cute, "You haven't asked her her name yet? I can take you back later."
"He Yuxia."
Miss He Er did not hide anything, "What about you?"
"...Luo Tian."
Of course Shen He couldn't use his real name and used a fake name to answer her.
The fact is that he has been using a pseudonym since he came here, and only a handful of people know his true identity.
But he was also surprised. Is this the second lady who co-wrote "Shark Teeth"?
Although he had worked with He Yuqiang, Shen He didn't know much about his second sister. None of his former partners took her seriously...
And the first impression the other party gave him was only one thing: innocence.
He is also very sensitive to people's emotions, and he can see that He Yuxia has no evil intentions. No wonder she was not involved in the internal fights between "Shark Teeth" in the past. At this level, it would be good if not even the bones were eaten by others.
ha.
"Master Luo."
He Yuxia returned the smile, like a small white flower blooming on the dirty ground.
What kind of name is this? It's so strange... Shen He complained a little but didn't pay attention to it. He turned around and asked about other things, "Miss He is a wealthy lady from a consortium, how come she ends up here alone?"
"...It's not like I don't have bodyguards."
Hearing him ask this, He Yuxia was a little embarrassed, "But I got rid of them after leaving the city... and then I got lost again, so..."
Ah this... Shen He frowned and thought to himself that you are really capable, "But what is Miss He doing out of the city?"
"It's photography."
He Yuxia looked around and pointed to the backpack lying on the chair beside her, "I have never been outside the city, so I just wanted to go out and see if there are any good scenery that I can take pictures of... You can take a look. I still took a lot of photos..."
"..."
After hearing this, most people would probably just think that He Yuxia is a lunatic. It is not a paradise outside the city. Who would go out to do something ghostly when they are full and have nothing to do? Especially if your status is not low and you are not short of money, wouldn’t it be better to build an artificial scene for what you really want?
But Shen He is used to this. After all, he used to be the son of a large financial group. He knows very well that people like He Yuxia, especially those like her who are deaf to the outside world and sad about spring and autumn, are in the Night City. There are quite a few among the top brass.
There were several such relatives among "Tianhe"'s former relatives, and if I remember correctly, so was Xia Wuyou's aunt? No, she's not quite the same... Then there's Xu Shi's mother Wen Rujin, a literary and artistic woman raised in the "Quill Pen" family, who was also very famous in Night City in the past.
So he really didn't think there was anything wrong with He Yuxia's weird brain circuit.
In fact, there are still some, "Then it's all about collecting the wind. Why did you go out of your way to get rid of the bodyguards? You see, something happened now. Fortunately, I discovered you, otherwise the consequences would have been serious."
"I didn't think too much about it..."
He Yuxia was a little aggrieved, "I just thought it was annoying for them to do this. Who knew that outside the city and I thought differently..."
"...Forget it, it'll be fine."
Chen He was completely speechless. Should he say that she was innocent and innocent, or that she was really stupid and brainless? It can only be said that he usually has a lot of intrigues, but he doesn't know how to deal with this type of person.
"Ms. He, please have a good rest first. I'll find someone to take you back later. How long have you been out? I think everyone in Ye City will go crazy looking for you."
"Then there is Mr. Luoluo."
He Yuxia smiled, "I really don't know how to repay you... Are you the "forgotten one"? Do you want me to talk to them and make it easier for you to settle in the city? I can still do this kind of thing. "
In her opinion, this should be the best reward for the "forgotten ones", right?
Hearing this, Shen He's eyes suddenly lit up.
In fact, he didn't think too much about what he could do with the help of He Yuxia. After all, the other party really didn't have much weight, she was just a rich girl at best... Could it be that he still wanted to hold her captive? Only fools do that.
But the other party's words reminded him that it was good to have such an opportunity. If he could return to the city without anyone noticing, he would be able to do more.
Not now, though.
"...That's not necessary. I didn't think about this when I rescued you."
So he declined politely and sighed with pretense of pity, "The main thing is that I'm not alone. I'm a, um, little boss here, right? There are still people and things that I need to take care of, so I can't just ignore them now." Those who go to the city should complete their targets honestly."
This is true. The brother and sister had discussed it before Shen Qin entered the city. On the one hand, Shen He stayed at the station so that he would not be exposed. Secondly, he also wanted to integrate the remaining "forgotten people" so that he would not have any scruples in taking action.
Isn't he doing this now? He's very comfortable doing this kind of job, but it's not to the level that he used to control "Spark" and "Disgo". He has to wait.
"Really? Then I don't know what to give in return..."
He Yuxia was a little disappointed when she heard this, "Or if you have any need in this regard, you can tell me at any time?"
She still cared deeply about the life-saving grace and would not regret it if she didn't repay it.
"...That's fine."
Shen He thought for a moment and then nodded, half-jokingly, "Maybe one day I won't be able to dig anymore, and I'll have to rely on Miss He to save me."
"OK."
Hearing what he said, He Yuxia nodded quickly, "Then change the contact information first? If you need anything, just ask me."
"But it's not good if there are too many people. They may not listen to what I say..."
She didn't forget to add another sentence.
"Don't worry, I will never embarrass Miss He."
Shen He expressed his understanding.
"Speaking of which, isn't it hard for the "Forgotten Ones"? "
After saying something serious, He Yuxia thought about it and asked, "I have to dig ore again, and the living environment is not good... Can you tell me more about it? I also want to know more about it."
"...What does Miss He want to hear?"
Shen He did not refuse.
"As long as it's real, I'll record it and use it as material. Maybe it can be used in writing in the future?"
He Yuxia asked her to bring her backpack and take out pen and paper to record, "Can I also share it with the media to help you clarify your reputation?"
"Miss He still has this heart."
Chen He smiled lightly.
"is it not OK?"
He Yuxia frowned slightly, "Anyway, those reports of "imaginary numbers" are too exaggerated in my opinion. Mutated creatures are monsters and monsters... It's okay if you didn't see them before. Now that you see them, you have to explain them clearly." "
"Anyway, I don't think the person who saved me could be a bad person... I don't know why they reported it so much, but slander is always bad."
"Thank you very much, Miss He."
Shen Heshen thought so. In fact, he was not the "forgotten one", but his sister was, so he was quite upset when he saw those reports, knowing full well that it was a conspiracy of the six major consortiums.
"It's like returning the favor to you."
He Yuxia smiled, "Actually, you can also speak for yourself. It would be helpful if you could clarify something. Anyway, I don't think you have this intention. The "Forgotten Ones" have been here for a while, and I haven't seen anyone speak for me. "
Maybe someone said it but you couldn't see it... Shen He thought to himself that this girl was still too naive, but he understood the kindness and told him roughly the real situation here.
Of course, there was also some accusation against the six major consortiums, or Xu Shi, who was the leader. He felt that there was little hope that it could be made public, but it would be good for him to find someone to talk to.
It can be regarded as a sigh of relief in a sense.
It has to be said that staying with someone like He Yuxia made him feel calmer. After all, people like him around him were so rare.
In other words, there was none at all. He used to regard Xia Wuyou as Bai Yueguang, but now he doesn't hate him to death. Lin Yue is also a person with hatred, and now they are even strangers.
My sister is no longer as innocent as she was when she was a child. Although she behaves like that in front of him, it is only to him.
In fact, if Shen He knew that Xu Shi had a similar feeling when he met He Yuxia for the first time, he didn't know what he would think.
The two of them talked a lot back and forth, and Miss He Er took down a lot of notes eloquently, "Thank you, Mr. Luo, I know a lot about relevant things."
"If someone can clear our name, it's me who should say thank you."
Chen He smiled and said, "It's not too early. Can I take you back?"
He Yuxia's injury was not serious in the first place, and she was almost healed after taking the medicine. The rest can be treated slowly back to the city. The most important thing is to send her back as soon as possible to prevent others from making a fuss.
"Okay, then we...can still keep in touch, right?"
Miss He Er was still a little shy, so she pulled out a page from the book and said, "I'll give this to you... I drew it temporarily as a souvenir."
A simple sketch of Shen He himself, of course, after he had slightly changed his appearance.
"...I will keep it well."
Shen He was startled, obviously he didn't expect that she would do this again, and he was a little at a loss for a moment.
When he came to his senses, he quickly shook his head, said goodbye and found someone to escort him back - there was no way he would show up on his own.
But, should I say it or not, I am a little moved.
What made him even more enlightened was the inspiration he had just had during his conversation with He Yuxia.
Using the media...?
…
"Miss He Er, are you okay?"
The people sent to escort He Yuxia naturally successfully found Tang Shuang, who was searching outside the city.
She was relieved to see that the other party was fine.
"I was slightly injured, but it's no longer a serious problem."
He Yuxia smiled and shook her head, "I'm really sorry for causing everyone to go to such trouble to find me."
The bodyguards also breathed a sigh of relief. Auntie, thank you for being okay, otherwise we would really be screwed...
Fortunately, there was no danger.
But they can't blame themselves. If they find someone, they have to say hello to the people who helped, including the "Shark Teeth" guys, and they also have to notify them. They can't really hide it.
"Girl, what do you want me to say about you?"
Naturally, Wen Shengkui also came, pretending to be angry and teaching him a lesson, "How could you run out alone without saying a word? No one cares about you in the first place, and no one will feel sorry for you even if you die."
When he said this, he stared unkindly at Mr. He and Mr. He beside him. "Don't look for me. I'm talking about you two and your equally unreliable father."
The two brothers were very unhappy. It was not us who lost his mother. Why is the old guy so weird?
But they won’t say it out loud. Wouldn’t that make themselves uncomfortable…
"Okay, okay, it's a good thing to find him back."
Xu Shi also helped to smooth things over, "Be happy, Qiangzi, and Brother Yuzhao."
"Just, come on, come on, look at the camera."
Qi Maoyang also came here because of the smell, saying that he wanted to make a report, and even wanted to take photos himself.
This is another show of goodwill to Xu Shi - it is reasonable to say that the hero who found He Yuxia is the "forgotten one", but Xu Dong also put in a lot of efforts, so naturally he needs to play it up.
Anyway, just mention the merits of the "Forgotten Ones", now is the time to suppress them...
Xu Shi is also happy to see the results. He can gain a good reputation with little effort, so why not?
Therefore, this group photo taken has a sense of joy. Xu Shi, Tang Shuang, Wen Shengkui, was really happy, but the three brothers and sisters of the He family looked a little stiff.
He Laoda and He Laosan were obviously forced to show off, while He Yuxia was a little disappointed.
It was exactly what I thought.
As for the old director He Jiayuan? Don't ask, just ask if you feel unwell.
"That's enough. I'll write the article myself. Isn't it a great honor for you, Mr. Xu?"
After the show, Qi Maoyang found Xu Shi and joked, "If anything good happens in the future, don't forget me, buddy."
"of course."
Xu Shi returned politely, "Actually, if you want to talk about good things, isn't there one right now?"
"Oh?" Qi Maoyang was curious.
"I see that Miss He Er also likes photography. Don't you consider communicating with her?"
Xu Shi smiled and said, "Isn't this a good thing?"
"forget it."
Qi Maoyang waved his hand, "Not very interested."
"How to say?"
"Women only affect my shutter speed."
