Dong Jianguo frowned.
Many people in the Countermeasures Bureau have military backgrounds, including Dong Jianguo, and they are all about strict discipline. Naturally, this situation is not what Dong Jianguo wants to see.
However, due to his own responsibilities and Chen Mo next to him, Dong Jianguo did not show much emotion on his face, and just asked the person on guard at the door to let the intruder in.
It was a young man in his early twenties.
Based on the other party's words and appearance just now, Chen Mo has confirmed that this person is most likely the victim of the Xuanla incident, the brother of Manxing's little brother.
Chen Mo didn't pay too much attention.
But that's it.
He suddenly noticed that the starry brother opposite was staring at him.
True.
As a public figure, Chen Mo was easily recognized wherever he went, but the way the young man in front of him looked at him was completely different.
Even without using a waveguide to sense carefully, Chen Mo could still feel the strong hostility in the opponent's aura based on his experience in the wild.
"Pickup..."
The three elves who also felt this hostility all looked at the young man, and even Pikachu stood up slightly from Chen Mo's shoulders.
at this time.
A timid call came from the side.
"elder brother…"
The young man standing not far in front of Chen Mo suddenly woke up. The hostility on his face was instantly replaced by endless worry. He hurriedly ran towards the little boy and looked the little boy up and down carefully. The worry on his face was so obvious It just dissipated a little.
"Come on, Manxing, let's go home."
The young man took the little boy and planned to leave.
Simply, the matter here was almost settled. After a few brief explanations to the little boy and the young man, the people from the Countermeasures Bureau allowed the two brothers to leave.
Chen Mo looked at the backs of one of the children as they left, with a thoughtful look on his face.
…
The weather in Xueying City has become colder day by day since the beginning of autumn. On the long street, many citizens who are afraid of the cold have even put on jackets.
Manxing also felt that today's weather was extremely cold.
He wrapped his coat inwards and glanced forward unknowingly, looking at the back of the young man who had not said a word since leaving the ecological park and was leading the way.
Manxing still remembers.
When I first entered kindergarten, because my parents were busy, they usually didn't have time until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, so my elder brother was often responsible for picking me up from school.
Kindergarten's end time is naturally faster than that of elementary school and junior high school.
Every time, after all the other children in the kindergarten had gone home with their parents, Manxing would wait for Manyue to rush to pick her up.
At the beginning, as a child, Manxing was naturally very unhappy.
But later, after listening to the kindergarten teachers and parents explaining the relationship, Manxing, who had been relatively sensible since childhood, stopped making trouble.
】
Compared to myself, my brother lost more.
Not to mention anything else, every day after school, he has to pick up his brother immediately, which indirectly gives up the time to play with his friends.
therefore.
During that time, the scenes of returning home with his brother became some of the warmest moments in Manxing's memory.
"call…"
Manxing looked at the tall figure who kept walking forward. This was the first time that he felt that the journey home was so far away.
So tired.
Every time he took a step, his feet felt as if they were filled with lead, extremely heavy.
finally.
When he reached a deserted intersection, Manxing, who felt that he had reached his limit, stopped and gasped for air.
"elder brother…"
As if he heard his call, and as if he noticed that the footsteps behind him suddenly disappeared, the young man in front stopped, but did not turn around.
Manxing bent over and exhaled, feeling as if he was holding the food he hated most, bitter melon, in his mouth.
Exposed.
Totally exposed.
The moment he saw Man Yue appear in the ecological park, Man Xing understood that things were already developing in a direction beyond his control. Later, the things that the Countermeasures Bureau personnel explained to Man Yue even exposed Man Xing's affairs. All clean.
"sorry…"
The stars made a faint sound like mosquitoes.
The people in front didn't seem to hear.
Manxing plucked up the courage again and shouted loudly.
"Brother, I'm sorry!"
The young man in front finally turned around, his expression still so calm.
He said slowly.
"Manxing, I don't accept your apology, but I want to ask you, why do you do this? You should have heard it before, whether it is studying or working, you should try your best to find the meaning of doing that. "
"So, what does taking the new trainer exam mean to you?"
Suddenly, a cold wind blew past, causing Manxing to freeze in place again.
Five years ago, after the second uncle came to Xueying City, he also wanted to let Man Yue go to school again, but he was rejected by Man Yue at that time.
In this regard, the second uncle didn't say much and only left one sentence.
[Whether it is studying or working, you should try your best to find the meaning of doing so. 】
Although Man Yue didn't answer at the time, Man Xing understood the reason why his brother was obsessed with going to work.
My elder brother is an extremely stubborn person. His second uncle had just arrived at that time, so although his second uncle had said that he could come to him if he had any problems, his elder brother obviously didn't want to owe his second uncle too much.
Man Yue persistently wants to rely on her own ability to repay the pile of debts left behind by her parents after their death; she persistently wants to rely on her own strength to raise her younger brother.
Working from dawn to dusk, I also have to take care of my younger brother's study and life.
All of this, Manxing is watching.
Therefore…
Manxing took a deep breath.
He hated the elf who killed his second uncle, but he also believed from the bottom of his heart that his brother's idea was not correct.
As Teacher Mo has always emphasized, humans and elves are both good and bad. What we need is to look at them in a more dialectical way.
After making the decision, Manxing mustered up the courage and spoke seriously.
"Brother, I don't think all elves in this world are bad guys. There are a lot of things we humans can learn from elves. They are innocent and straightforward, and can give everything they have for the people they recognize, even if they are their lives.”
"I want to become a trainer. I want to know more about what an elf is. I want to see for myself whether humans and trainers can move towards a future together."
"These are my dreams and the reasons why I choose to take the exam. In addition..."
When Manxing said this, he paused for a moment. He looked at the expressionless young man in front of him with his hands in his pockets and said softly.
"Teachers and people on the Internet say that the future will be an era of trainers. I don't understand this very well, but I know that if I become a trainer, I can easily do it like Sister Zhao Xueer. Make lots and lots of money.”
"This will allow you to..."
Manxing's voice became lower and lower until he was completely inaudible.
to be honest.
Manxing was also surprised.
When Zhao Xueer won the top eight in the Pikachu Cup, Xueying City's Countermeasures Bureau had a high-profile banner stating that Zhao Xueer would be awarded 300,000 yuan as a reward.
This reward amount is still discussed by many people even now.
same.
This is the first time Manxing knows how many benefits he will get from becoming a trainer.
Three hundred thousand!
My brother can't make that much money all year round.
And Manxing also heard that the winner of the Pikachu Cup, a child about the same age as himself, received even more rewards than sister Zhao Xueer.
The future belongs to trainers.
At that time, Manxing made up his mind. If given the chance, he must become a trainer to lighten the burden on his family.
but…
"elder brother…"
Manxing looked carefully at the young man across the street.
Since the death of his parents, Manxing, who has learned to hide his thoughts in his heart and not cause trouble to others, especially his brother, has spoken so much of his heart to his brother for the first time.
He was scared.
I'm afraid that my brother will start to hate me because of this, or even don't want me anymore.
I don’t know how long it took.
Every second feels like a year has passed.
finally.
The expression of the young man on the other side of the street changed. He moved his lips and slowly uttered a sentence.
"go home."
It was as if nothing had happened.
Manxing didn't dare to say anything more, he just lowered his head and followed closely behind the young man who was slowing down in front.
Where he had not noticed, the young man's hands in his pockets were tightly clenched, and his nails were almost dug into his flesh, but the expression on his face did not change at all, as if he could not feel any pain at all.
…
the other side.
On the way to the city center, Chen Mo also learned about the situation at Man Yue Man Xing's home through explanations from the Countermeasures Bureau personnel.
"Have relatives ever died due to elves attacking..."
Chen Mo sighed lightly.
As expected, there was no unprovoked hostility.
In fact, even now, Chen Mo often receives verbal attacks from people who have been hurt by elves on the Internet, but in reality, this is the first time that Chen Mo has close contact with these people who have been unilaterally hurt by elves. Special groups.
Chen Mo, who has experienced many things, will not doubt whether what he is doing is right just because of the tragic experiences and hostility of others.
only.
There will inevitably be slight fluctuations in emotions.
After thinking about it, Chen Mo turned his head and asked Dong Jianguo on the other side.
"I remember that among the series of policies introduced by the Countermeasures Bureau after it was renamed, there seemed to be some special welfare policies for victims like Man Yue Man Xing, right?"
Chen Mo took a quick look at the welfare policy. According to some of the contents above, special groups of people whose relatives were injured or sacrificed by elves would have certain priority in some activities organized by the Countermeasures Bureau.
Take this event as an example. If family members of victims of the elf incident sign up, the registration fee and a series of subsequent simple fees are completely free. Moreover, as long as you participate, you will receive bonus points in many assessment links. Benefits of priority promotion.
"Well, those immediate family members that the policy mainly targets, Man Yue Man Xing and their second uncle, I have just inquired about them, and they are not covered by the policy."
Dong Jianguo paused and continued.
"However, considering that Man Yue Man Xing and their second uncle have never established a relationship between dependents and dependents at the legal level, after all, it was their second uncle who had been taking care of the brothers in those years. Therefore, when the time comes, we only need to provide some evidence from the surrounding neighbors, and it will be included in the scope of care of the policy.”
"Well, actually it can be considered an oversight in our work. Teacher Mo, during this period, I will send someone to the brothers to learn more about the situation."
Chen Mo nodded.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Director Dong."
"It's all what we should do."
Chen Mo didn't say anything more.
He also knew that since the introduction of this policy, especially regarding the subjugation of elves, there have been very few opportunities to implement it.
after all.
Some hatred cannot be resolved. Even if it is the general trend, in this era, there will still be some humans who will never accept the elves.
Of the two brothers, although the younger brother seemed very interested in the elves, the older brother obviously still harbored a deep hatred for the elves.
Therefore, even if the Countermeasures Bureau is willing to provide help, it is difficult to say whether the other party will accept it.
Chen Mo shook his head and temporarily forgot about the brothers.
at the same time.
The Countermeasures Bureau personnel who were driving also stopped the car.
"Teacher Mo, we are here."
"good."
Chen Mo nodded.
Everyone in the car, including Dong Jianguo, looked at Chen Mo curiously.
"Gengar."
"Follow silicon~"
From the shadow world, a fat purple man with half a head emerged and handed over the waveguide scepter presented by Zoroark.
Unlike the initial waveguide release to attract wild elves, the next step is to explore the entire Snow Shadow City, so it will be a little more troublesome.
And using Yaren's waveguide scepter, Chen Mo can explore more carefully and more easily.
"The waveguide...is in my heart!"
As Chen Mo began to actively release his waveguide, the waveguide crystal on the waveguide scepter also bloomed with azure brilliance at this moment. The entire Xueying City, and even an area in the wild areas of Xueying City, were included in Chen Mo's waveguide at this moment. Within the range of perception.
"Is this a waveguide?"
At this moment, Dong Jianguo felt a strange feeling of strange energy sweeping through him, and he couldn't help but feel quite magical.
Three minutes later.
The light released by the waveguide scepter quickly weakened, and Chen Mo opened his eyes again, with a somewhat confused expression on his face.
Dong Jianguo asked curiously after noticing this scene.
"Have you found them?"
"No."
Chen Mo shook his head.
"I've checked the entire Xueying City, the suburbs, and the sewers, and I haven't seen any trace of a crocodile. It's strange, are these guys running so fast..."
