"Yeah! Won!"
Chen Junyan's cheerful voice came from the basketball court.
After exhausting all means, he finally got a point from the Gu boy.
"Is this...cheating? Is it cheating?"
Gu Tong didn't seem to care about winning or losing, he was just curious about the new vocabulary he had just learned.
Looking at this scene, Liao Zhong couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
It's not easy, finally making this child look like a normal person.
"Gu boy!"
He stood up and greeted, "Yes, that wet crotch is just cheating, there is no need to run away!"
But for some reason, the other party ignored his call.
"Gu boy? Gu boy!?"
Liao Zhong called a few more times, but there was still no response.
"..."
Chen Junyan looked at this carefree man speechlessly, "What kind of Gu boy is this? His name is Chen Duo!"
"?" Liao Zhong didn't react for a while.
"Isn't the scream of the old Gu Tong Gu Tong unpleasant? I have a name, Chen Duo! I named it! My surname is after me!" Chen Junyan answered Liao Zhong's doubts confidently, "How can I live without such a beautiful girl? Name? She will be called Chen Duo from now on, do you hear me!? "
The girl on the side also nodded seriously: "Well... there is no Gu surname among the hundreds of surnames. Hello... my name is Chen Duo."
"..."
Liao Zhong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, scratching his head and looking annoyed, "I'll go! I actually ignored such an important issue! No... why does she have to take your last name!? Who do you think you are!" ? Girl, don’t listen to him, he is taking advantage of you! I have to choose the name! Don’t you know I am the god of naming!? Especially women! Xiaoli, Xiaozhen, Xiaona, and Xiaomi are all good!"
"Pull you down! Are these guys working in nightclubs? It's better to just call them No. 8 or No. 9!" Chen Junyan looked speechless and seemed to know Liao Zhong very well.
"Nonsense! You got it again, kid!? What's wrong with Xiaomi? She's a meathead!" Liao Zhong blushed and looked a little angry.
"Hey, Liao Tou, calm down, calm down! I think Chen Duo is pretty good?" The dinosaur man on the side put his arm around Liao Zhong's shoulders and comforted him, "By the way, what's Xiaomi's number?"
"No. 36..." Liao Zhong answered subconsciously, but soon realized that he had let slip, "Oh no! The big monster hasn't fully recovered yet! Are you starting to think about these nonsense?"
"Hey, aren't I feeling panicked here?"
"...What are they discussing?"
Chen Duo tilted her head and asked Chen Junyan beside her with a puzzled look. She had not yet fully learned human common sense and knew nothing about the topic that these two crooked men were discussing.
"..." Chen Junyan covered his face and was speechless, "Don't worry about these two guys! Anyway, your name is Chen Duo, and this matter is settled!"
"Um……"
············
"Amidst the commotion, Chen Duo's name was decided..." Lao Meng said with some emotion, "This is probably about Chen Duo's past. She told me personally... She shouldn't have lied about this. necessary."
"Then this sounds like a very good story? Saving an ignorant girl and giving her a new life, ah... just thinking about it makes people moved~" Wang Zhenqiu chuckled, "I didn't expect such gangs in the company. Did this guy do something rare?"
"..."
Regarding Wang Zhenqiu's almost ridiculing words, everyone remained silent and did not comment.
Is it really a good thing? Zhang Chulan observed the expressions of the other people around him and finally looked at the two people he was most familiar with.
Feng Baobao didn't seem to listen at all, so probably only Sun Haoran's attitude had any reference.
But Sun Haoran only shook his head slightly at such a story.
Zhang Chulan soon understood that everyone had probably heard the anomaly in this seemingly beautiful story.
Chen Duo's story is destined to be a tragedy. It seems that she was saved by the company, and the people who wanted to save her did have good intentions. But the problem is that good intentions without ability can sometimes backfire.
Just like there is a sentence to say?
"I could have endured the darkness if I had not seen the light."
Although Chen Duo lived in such a cruel environment, she thought it was normal. Although the people in the company had good intentions, they took her own initiative to take her out of such an environment and forcibly corrected her. world view.
It seems like a good thing, but it's not.
Just like what he mentioned in his conversation with Ma Xianhong...
Liao Zhong's good intentions became distorted in the end, because he could not completely save the poor girl with his power, he could only give her an illusory 'hope', and he could not send Buddha to the West... It would be better to give up from the beginning, The end result of such forceful attempts to save this girl was that Chen Duo became a weapon of the company, a dangerous weapon that was strictly guarded, and now the company felt that this weapon was very dangerous and wanted to destroy it.
Of course, Zhang Chulan didn't mean to blame Liao Zhong. Any conscientious person who saw such a girl would probably want to save her. What was wrong was that he didn't estimate his own strength clearly. Under the constraints of the company's environment, this man was unable to give Chen Duo a bright future, and the result was destined to be tragic.
"So... how did this seemingly beautiful story eventually turn into a heart-wrenching tragedy?" Wang Zhenqiu gradually put away the smile on his face, no longer looking joking, and asked in a deep voice .
This is probably the question that everyone is most concerned about at the moment. Probably no one here cares about Chen Duo's past. What they care about is just why things turned out like this and how to find a breakthrough to solve the matter perfectly. That's the point.
"This..." Lao Meng scratched his head and thought for a moment, then quickly continued his story, "About a week after 'Chen Duo' got the name..."
············
"Where's the doctor sister?"
During lunch, Chen Duo looked around and asked while picking at the food on the plate.
"Let's go..."
Chen Junyan answered, his tone seemed a little lonely.
"Well... went out, alas... I still didn't ask how she got in in the end..." The dinosaur man said with some regret.
"Go away, you actually want to ask for their contact information, right?" Chen Junyan ruthlessly revealed the other person's thoughts.
"Hehe..." The dinosaur man scratched his head and smiled.
He will leave here soon. At this moment, his ferocious dinosaur-like face has gradually begun to look like a humanoid. The treatment effect is very good. I believe that he will be able to leave here and return to a normal life in the near future.
Not just him, but Chen Junyan seems to be too.
Only the girl in front of me, who looked normal, seemed to have never mentioned leaving here at all.
Although he didn't know the specific situation, he could tell that this girl was different from them. Although they all had various problems, they still remembered where their home was and where they should go after leaving here... ...Only this girl is like a newborn baby. Although she is growing very quickly, this rapidity makes him worried about this girl's future.
"You guys eat first, I'll find a place to video chat with my mom."
After Chen Junyan finished the last bite of rice on the plate, he took out the mobile phone he got from Lao Liao and laughed.
Everything seemed ordinary. Chen Duo, who doesn't understand farewell, certainly doesn't realize that the moment of farewell will come soon.
Time passed by half a month.
In front of the gate of the observation area of the bunker, the man who had returned to normal smiled and waved goodbye to the two children in front of him.
"Haha! Remember to come and play with me when you come out later! Wet your crotch!"
As he said that, he looked at the little girl next to Chen Junyan. He clearly wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't.
The problem about this girl is not something he can worry about. After all, he himself is also being helped by the people here. He can find a solution to such a weird problem. This little girl looks quite normal... she should There's always a way, right?
Thinking of this, he followed the leader and left with a smile and a wave.
"..."
Looking at the slowly closing door, both the boy and the girl fell into a brief silence.
"Chen Junyan...will you go out too?"
Finally, it was Chen Duo who broke the silence.
As time went by, she learned more and more knowledge, and she understood that the disappearance of people around her was called "separation". She also knew that these people who accompanied her would leave one by one, and she was different from these people... Not normal myself.
"Of course, can I still stay here for the rest of my life?" Chen Junyan seemed not to notice the inner activities of the girl next to him at this moment.
After all, he is a young man, so he won't think about so many complicated things.
"What are you doing out there?" Chen Duo asked again.
"Hmm..." Chen Junyan thought for a while, and finally shrugged nonchalantly and turned towards the base, "Who knows? Let's talk about it when we get out~ there will always be a way."
"..."
Chen Duo was silent.
Is there always a way?
very nice.
She could probably understand that the reason why she thought this way was because of the emotion called 'envy'.
Another three months passed quickly.
Company headquarters, in the chairman's office.
Liao Zhong faced the old man in front of him anxiously: "Director Zhao! Can you delay it any longer? We haven't made any progress yet... I know that there has been no results for so long, and I really have no shame in giving you any more problems... But……"
"I can understand how you feel...but we really can't delay it any longer, Lao Liao..." Zhao Fangxu said with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "After all, I don't have the final say in the company alone."
"But...a person who possesses magical powers without relying on the flow of Qi body or special bloodline! Do you know how precious Chen Junyan is to us?"
"Of course I know, that's why I bought these two years for you..." Zhao Fangxu replied calmly, "If it hadn't been for some mistake that allowed us to get Chen Junyan first, let alone two years, we wouldn't even be able to see each other. Can’t see him.”
"The other party is so tough? You can't make them accommodating based on your relationship? We are a bunker here!"
"So what about the secret fortress?" Zhao Fangxu shook his head helplessly, "This is not a question of whether it is tough or not, and it has nothing to do with whether it is a secret fortress... You have to know that there is no flow of Qi body or even special blood. Chen Junyan Chen Junyan, in the final analysis He is not a 'foreign person' at all, and we are not qualified to continue to look after him. According to the other party, Chen Junyan's abnormality was caused by 'the third kind of contact'. Do you understand? Anyway, I can't even use this word. I don’t understand what it means. In short...this is not an area we can control."
"tnnd, if it hadn't been for Chen Junyan, I wouldn't have believed it if you told me there was a department like theirs!" Liao Zhong couldn't help but swear.
Their bunker is already a mysterious enough department, but in the final analysis, the projects it is responsible for are mainly practical, such as equipment research or superpower research. Who knows if the guys above have so much money that they have no place to use it? They even set up an inexplicable department to study the "third kind of contact", which is so mysterious that it seems like nonsense. Wouldn't it be nice to have more funds for the equipment department to develop new weapons?
"This is not something you should be concerned about." Zhang Fangxu lectured angrily, "Also...you dare to say bad words in front of me? The plaque I gave you before doesn't work, does it? Chen Junyan's You are personally responsible for the handover! Before that, copy the words on the plaque I gave you a thousand times! If you don’t finish it, see how I deal with you!”
"Don't bother me! Director Zhao!"
·············
Soon, the date for Chen Junyan's departure arrived as scheduled.
"Uncle Liao! Get Chen Duo a mobile phone or something..." Chen Junyan was still a child after all. He was a little reluctant to leave his best friend. He couldn't help but cry and begged, "We can keep in touch in the future." ah!"
"Okay, okay, I got it! Let's go!" Liao Zhong looked helplessly at the boy in front of him, "Oh, what does it mean for a grown man like you to cry like this? You see, Miss Chen Duo doesn't even cry. Woolen cloth."
"Aren't I...reluctant to give up?" Chen Junyan explained while wiping his tears.
"Tsk, tsk, you weren't like this when the big monster left. How could you be reluctant to leave? I'm embarrassed to expose you." Liao Zhong laughed and teased, "Hahaha. Okay, it's really time to go. Yes, we have limited conditions here that prevent you from moving freely, but we have agreed over there that your freedom will not be restricted."
"Okay..." Chen Junyan wiped away his tears and nodded, and finally waved goodbye, "Goodbye, Chen Duo! You must come to me after you come out!"
"..."
Looking at the retreating figure in front of him, Chen Duo remained silent without saying a word.
Like everyone else before, she didn't say a word.
After going out...
She knew she wouldn't have this possibility.
After seeing off Chen Junyan, Liao Zhong returned to the base.
He found that Chen Duo did not go back to his room, but was still guarding the place where he said goodbye.
"What's wrong?"
"Uncle Liao..." Chen Duo raised his head and asked tentatively, "Can I... go out?"
