Lunch should be regarded as a farewell to each other. The two of them rode to the east of the city to go to a mutton restaurant and made more than 40 pieces in one go. Using the excuse that "going to the border is risky", Han Qingyu prepared and explained all aspects and details, so as to avoid cheating.
In the end, it took more than two hours to finish the meal. After the meal, I helped clean up the old house that was about to be vacant. I picked up a few things that were useful at home and tied them with a rope together with the big black umbrella. After being taken away on the bus, it was already around 3:30 when Han Qingyu started to go home.
When he left, Fei Jifei also rode out, saying that this farewell might mean that he wouldn't be able to see each other for two or three years... and he would be given away for a while.
"Okay, get out of here. Remember to work hard when you go to the army."
Not far out of the county seat, Han Qingyu stopped the car and turned around, waving his hand and saying.
"Okay... then, let's go away separately and work hard to behave like human beings."
Wen Jifei put his foot on the ground, flicked his tail and turned around.
Han Qingyu turned around and started pedaling, and it was probably less than twenty meters away.
"beep!"
A car horn sounded, short and sharp, almost right next to the ear, making people tremble suddenly. At the same time, you can feel the rolling of the wheels very close behind you, and the stones "slope" under the wheels.
Han Qingyu turned his head and glanced at the window of the jeep...twirled the handlebar and gave way to the side of the road.
"Beep!" Another sound.
The jeep came close again.
"..." Putting aside his silly thoughts of racing with the car, Han Qingyu gave way to the side again, until he reached the curb, and at the same time took two steps with a little more strength.
The result was still the same. The jeep honked again, and without hesitation, it drifted at the accelerator, swung the front of the car diagonally towards him, and got him stuck on the edge of the road.
The window was rolled down.
Lao Jian was alone, sitting in the driver's seat, turning to smile at Han Qingyu. It’s the kind of playful smile where one is confident and thinks it’s funny after playing a prank…
If he wasn't afraid of death, Han Qingyu would have wanted to punch him in the face.
"Is it an accident?" Lao Jian asked with a smile. He was dressed as an ordinary cadre today and looked presentable. No wonder Han Qingyu hadn't recognized him before.
"Are you staring at me? Are you afraid that I will say something nonsense..."
Speaking of which, if he had been following me since morning... then when I was hiding in the woods and running around... I was still too careless!
Han Qingyu felt guilty and panicked, but he controlled his appearance and said, "Don't worry, I know the matter is serious and I won't tell anyone."
After speaking, he looked back and forth cautiously.
When I looked, there was no one nearby.
After watching... "Damn it."
Wen Jifei stopped less than a hundred meters away, looking sideways at the car and squinting this way. "Don't come here, you idiot." Han Qingyu shouted anxiously and feebly in his heart.
For now, in Han Qingyu's eyes, Lao Jian is basically equivalent to an impermanence that can take people to purgatory at any time.
"I'm not specifically staring at you," Lao Jian looked back in the direction of the county and said, "It's just that the county is only so big. It happened to be that I followed him for a short distance."
At the same time as he spoke, in Han Qingyu's sight, Wen Jifei was pedaling his car and rushing here quickly.
Of course, people are also in Lao Jian's sight.
"It's my classmate. I didn't say anything to him." Han Qingyu quickly turned back to explain to Lao Jian.
Lao Jian chuckled and nodded.
"Squeak~" "What's going on?" The plague chicken flew over, braked suddenly, lifted the rear wheel and then landed sideways to stop. The man was very anxious but still had a smile on his face. He pointed at the wheel and said: "I see this... ...It’s not tied up either.”
In his opinion, Han Qingyu's family didn't know any cadres, and Jeep's repeated actions were obviously provocative.
Lao Jian looked at him carefully and said with a serious face: "It's a private matter that has nothing to do with you."
"Oh." Guessing that it was definitely not a good thing, Wen Jifei smiled and continued: "It's related. What is the specific situation? Let me tell you, I will take care of the matter."
You carry it? Should you carry your uncle or your aunt? Carry it! Han Qingyu cursed in his heart.
This common social problem is developed in school. These days, students in school like to form gangs. As a poor country boy, Han Qingyu doesn't want to get involved, so he will inevitably run into some trouble. As for Wen Jifei, probably because he has a rich father in his family who is very capable and capable, he is a man who is particularly capable of causing trouble and is not afraid of getting into trouble. He especially likes to shoulder troubles for others.
Several times, Han Qingyu or several other classmates in the class had not started a fight yet, but as soon as he came to help, they started fighting.
Moreover, his actual combat power is not comparable to that of Han Qingyu.
"You're going to carry it? I'm afraid you can't handle this, right?" Lao Jian narrowed his eyes. It was hard to tell whether there was any deliberate probing in it, and continued, "Do you know what your classmate is going to do soon?"
Wen Jifei said matter-of-factly: "Be a soldier and go to the border."
Lao Jian smiled and nodded.
Seeing the opportunity, Han Qingyu quickly took over and said, "Stop messing around. I'm a soldier. It's all thanks to you...Uncle, you can help me."
After he said this, he felt extremely aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Ah...misunderstood?!...Pa."
Wen Jifei stood at attention on the spot and gave a military salute.
"Hello, Chief."
Then he suddenly raised his head and smiled flatteringly, "Chief, which army are you from? What a coincidence, I happen to be going to be a soldier. So, chief, you said that to serve as a soldier to defend the country, of course we are going to the motherland where we are needed most. Places like the frontier are the best, right?”
Lao Jian listened, smiled, and slowly moved his eyes over, looking meaningfully at Han Qingyu's face.
"Go away, do you think being a soldier is child's play?!" Han Qingyu quickly turned around and cursed.
Lao Jian then spoke and said, "Yes, it's not up to you where you go as a soldier."
"...Eh." Wen Jifei responded in despair. Facing the leader, he did not dare to say anything more.
Han Qingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, by the way, let me take you for a while and chat a few words by the way. You can hang your bicycle behind my car." After Lao Jian said to Han Qingyu, he turned to Wen Jifei, "Goodbye, little comrade, I went to the army, remember to behave well .”
"Yes, please rest assured, chief."
Before Wen Jifei left, he once again gave the "chief" a silly salute.
…………
The jeep bumped along the gravel road.
inside the car.
"Why, were you so nervous just now?" Lao Jian smiled cheesily and asked, "Are you afraid of dragging your brothers into danger?"
There was no response, and Han Qingyu didn't speak. He had hardly spoken since he got in the car, fearing that he would make a mistake if he spoke too much.
"I feel more and more that it was right to recruit you." Lao Jian continued: "Calm, filial, thoughtful, and friendly... By the way, I will personally take you to the army this time."
"Aren't you the captain?" Han Qingyu turned to look at Lao Jian with confusion in his eyes.
"There's nothing I can do about it. You saw it that day and the source energy block was not found this time," Lao Jian explained. "I have to go back, explain the situation, and be examined."
Perhaps he really regarded Han Qingyu as his own soldier. Lao Jian no longer seemed to have too many scruples when speaking.
"You...eat that thing?" Judging that his secret had not been exposed, and the source energy block was really precious, Han Qingyu acted serious and curious, and asked: "That's why you ran so fast, and..."
"Eat?! Hahaha." Lao Jian held the steering wheel and laughed, "Do you think it's those thousand-year-old ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum in the TV series?...In reality, I have seen people with slightly stronger source energy absorption. But as you said, swallow it directly, I have never seen it... nor heard of it."
Then he seemed to think for a moment, "I have heard that there are people with a high degree of integration, but I have never seen it with my own eyes."
"Oh." Han Qingyu nodded blankly.
On the straight road, Lao Jian suddenly slowed down the car, then turned his head, leaned forward, and reached out to move the back of the back seat of the car.
The back of the chair collapsed forward, revealing a hidden compartment inside.
There is a set of strange equipment that Han Qingyu saw on Lao Jian and others that night:
A rectangular, dark-toned metal box is placed vertically. The upper left corner and lower right corner have been cut off, exposing two interfaces. At the same time, there are two interfaces on both sides, approximately in the middle. The height is asymmetrical and there is an interface on each side.
Han Qingyu recalled that when they carried the metal box on their backs, they seemed to be carrying it diagonally. The upper left port was on the right shoulder, and the lower right port was swung to the left, above the waist.
Corresponding to the number of interfaces, there are four metal straps of unknown texture hanging in the hidden compartment on the back of the chair. Although it can be seen at a glance that they are metal, they seem to be bendable.
Finally, there is a black straight knife that is not very long but a little thick, and the overall workmanship looks very rough, and a small tapered dagger of the same texture.
"This, what you have seen... After the source energy is refined, we put it in this device and use it. Over time, the body can indeed absorb some of it and become stronger than ordinary people." Lao Jian closed the back of the chair , turned back and drove, and said: "But that's it, it's not as exaggerated as you think. For example, I am almost ten years old. If you don't activate the device and you stab me, I will die."
Hearing this sentence, Han Qingyu unconsciously looked away... and glanced at Lao Jian.
"Why, are you a little moved?" Lao Jian smiled bitterly and said, "Do you want me to die so much?"
"..." Han Qingyu was not in a hurry to deny it this time.
Lao Jian laughed, "Return to hatred, you can't kill me, and it's useless to kill me. So many people saw you that day and have already reported it to the police."
"..." Han Qingyu sighed, "Actually, no one would believe me if I told you this."
Lao Jian shook his head and said in a slightly helpless tone: "Even if ordinary people don't believe it, there are always people who are willing to listen. I'm sorry, we can't take this risk. You will understand this later..."
As he was talking, a black cigarette box-sized communicator next to him suddenly flashed red and sounded "beep, beep" twice at the same time.
Lao Jian turned to look at Han Qingyu...picked up the communicator and connected the call.
"Area 752, Lao Jian, stand by." He said.
Han Qingyu didn't hear the voice clearly from the other side, and could only vaguely distinguish a few words, which were probably: reserve station, attack, defense, nearby area assistance... and the like.
"Roger, I'm in a good location, head there now."
Lao Jian cut off the call.
The two people in the car looked at each other.
Han Qingyu said sincerely: "You have something to do and you are busy, so just put me down and I will ride by myself..."
Lao Jian hesitated, "I want you to do me a favor."
Han Qingyu: "..."
Before he could answer, the car accelerated directly, turned onto another mountain road, and sped away.
