Chapter 594 Rain Village
Chapter 594 Rain Village
Suppressing the urge to give the chubby boy in front of him a set of military boxing, Chu Nan gritted his teeth.
"It's Chu from the State of Chu, and Nan from the South!"
"Of course I know, it's not like I haven't been to school."
Chu Nan clenched his fists, wanting to punch him even more...
He hadn't originally planned to make direct contact with the mission target so soon; he intended to observe Xiaoyu from a distance for a while, figure out her daily routine, and then make further plans.
After all, Grandpa Hu's requirement was to provide protection for the target while minimizing disturbance to the other party.
I was clearly discovered yesterday, and although I'm still confused about how I was exposed, continuing to keep my distance seems a bit redundant...
If this were to be mistaken for an enemy by the other party's unfathomable protector, it would backfire even more.
That's why he wanted to take the initiative to reach out to his target and show goodwill today...
I looked past the chubby boy and then at the rain behind me.
"I heard that Xiaoyu is the top student in her grade, so I would like to make friends with her and exchange learning experiences."
That's right, learning from good students was his excuse for getting close to Xiaoyu.
"You think you can just have an exchange like that? What's your rank in the grade? You're so arrogant!" the chubby boy said dismissively.
"Third in the grade before transferring."
"Uh……"
The chubby boy, intimidated by the academic star's aura, immediately lost his momentum.
This is the inherent pressure that top students exert on struggling students...
"So what if I'm third in the grade?" The student who was third from the bottom in the class remained defiant.
Chu Nan ignored him and walked past him toward Xiao Yu behind him.
He told Xiaoyu, who was looking at him curiously, what his purpose was.
"We should be from the same neighborhood. Can I invite you to walk home together after school?"
"Click~"
A little girl holding an envelope nearby froze on the spot, and the sound of a heart breaking could be faintly heard...
……
Chu Nan... so it was him...
When Meng Lang picked Xiao Yu up from school that afternoon, he noticed that there was an extra member in the "Daily After-School Group".
Hello, Uncle!
Looking at the little boy who had followed them yesterday, Meng Lang thought for a moment and realized that this was probably Old Hu's arrangement.
After all, once he focused on "studying," his interpersonal relationships became extremely simple, and their differences in size were so obvious.
With a little thought, Mr. Hu was able to figure out the identity of this "special expert from the Logistics Department".
There's an element of protection involved, but of course, there's also a sense of wanting to regain some control...
As for why it was a child, it was probably because they considered the reaction from their own side and were worried about causing resentment. It was quite a thoughtful consideration.
If it were someone else, Meng Lang might have refused outright.
After all, this is considered interference in their "internal affairs," and no one wants to expose their most important trump card to unknown factors.
However, "Chu Nan" is an exception...
Staring with great interest at this leader of the remnant human army in "The Spring and Autumn Annals of Mencius" and the highest battlefield commander in "Walking Alone on the Moon," he was definitely a potential big shot in the apocalypse!
If you can climb to a high position through connections during peacetime, that's not unusual.
But heroes emerge in chaotic times. In the post-apocalyptic world where morality and order have collapsed and the law of the jungle prevails, heroes can stand out and climb to the top step by step... and it takes several episodes!
Needless to say, his background is exceptional, and his abilities are beyond question!
Xiaoyu has cutting-edge technology, and Chu Nan has both ability and connections; this combination has immense potential.
No wonder he'll be absorbed into the organization in the future...
Old Hu is practically handing over his future reserves to himself!
I wonder if he'll feel any remorse when he realizes that one of his "legendary heroes" has been wasted...
The two of them are quite destined to meet. When the little guy was kidnapped, it was this "Chaoyang resident" who made a report and changed his fate.
Hmm...it seems that doing a good deed every day will definitely have a positive impact.
Gao Yuan is the "Junior Tutor", Zheng Wan is the "Junior Guardian", and Chu Nan is the "Junior Master"...
Our next generation of makeshift team has been set up.
Chu Nan, who had been keeping a straight face, was starting to lose his composure under Meng Lang's increasingly satisfied gaze. He felt as if he had been stripped naked, with no secrets left in front of this master who had seen through his disguise at a glance.
She could only manage a forced smile.
"Is...is there a problem?"
Meng Lang smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"It's nothing. You're handsome, young man, you have a bright future."
Little Fatty: “…”
Okay, okay, you're not even going to change the punctuation, are you?
"Uncle, this guy's background is unknown, I suspect he has ill intentions!"
Origin unknown? Even if we were all bundled together, none of us would have such impeccable credentials!
"There aren't that many bad people in this world. This student is a transfer student and doesn't know anyone here. Students should help each other, okay? Don't bully the new student!"
The chubby boy could only stand at the fork in the road, watching the three walk further and further away with a mournful expression.
For some reason, I feel a little empty inside...
Meng Lang turned to look at the chubby boy and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.
Zikai, it's not that I'm biased, but I'm not an older man.
The difference between you two at the starting line is too great, and the difference at the finish line is even greater!
With different destinations, just like now, we'll inevitably part ways sooner or later...
There's no such thing as thirty years east of the river and thirty years west of the river; never underestimate a young person's potential.
Without any special experiences, the chubby boy will most likely remain an ordinary, unremarkable person throughout his life.
The thing you'll be most proud of in the future will probably be talking about how you had two incredibly awesome elementary school classmates...
If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for being unlucky enough to meet someone so amazing when you were young...
……
Xiaoyu didn't think too much about it. She wasn't interested in ordinary little kids, but she found this "transfer student" with a somewhat mysterious background quite interesting.
"Judging from your accent, you're from Nanjing?"
"Huh? You can tell that from that? Is my Mandarin not standard enough?"
"You can still hear some subtle differences. Did you know that our math teacher is from Nanjing?"
"Is...is that so? I did grow up in Jinling with my grandmother since I was a child..."
"Hmm, then why did you transfer here? Isn't Jinling a good school?"
"It's close to home."
"You lied."
"I don't!"
"You have!"
"I... well, it's because of some... special reasons..."
"Oh, I heard you cornered a few delinquents in the toilet yesterday?"
"Nonsense, I just taught those troublemakers a lesson."
"So you're saying you're really good at fighting?"
"Well! My coach... says that among his peers, he should be considered one of the better fighters."
"Wow, that's amazing! Where did you learn your kung fu? Can you teach me?"
"Uh... well, what I'm learning isn't suitable for girls."
"Really? But the way you walk is a bit like those soldiers, did you learn it from them?"
Chu Nan: "..."
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but the seemingly harmless little girl in front of him seemed to exert a stronger sense of pressure than the unfathomable power of the older man beside her...
For the first time, he inwardly complained, "Why is the road home so long?"
After finally making it to my apartment complex, I felt like I'd been granted a pardon.
Looking at Xiao Chu Nan, who was covered in sweat and fled in panic once again under their gazes, Meng Lang said with some sympathy.
"Xiaoyu, at least don't use micro-expression scanning on people, look how scared you've made them."
"Hehe! Sister Gao said that you should learn to apply what you learn, read more, and observe more, so that you can make the things in the books your own."
The mouth can lie, but muscles and eyes cannot.
"Besides what you've gotten out of them, what else have you figured out?" Meng Lang asked curiously.
"Hmm... I've noticed that whenever a strange middle-aged woman walks by on the street, he subconsciously turns slightly to the side, his eyes filled with vigilance."
Psychology suggests that this is likely a stress response to a past traumatic experience.
"Uh……"
Can you see this?
Meng Lang couldn't help but recall the fear he felt when Gao Yuan had "read out" his romantic feelings with just a few words, and how he was dominated by her gaze...
Understanding thoughts, comprehending human nature, and manipulating minds with brainwave amplifiers...
Xiaoyu is speeding down the road to becoming a "psychology master"!
I won't tell you what Xiaoyu did as an adult.
And what means were used to create such a harmonious, unified, and cruel world?
The Night Demons were also thrown into chaos for a long time in the face of her mental corruption...
With this entire set of legendary "mind-based" skills combined, it's no wonder she's so overpowered in "Daughter of Time".
If it weren't for the lack of preparation in the last episode, Xiaoyu alone could probably have created a "united front of human civilization"...
Although Xiaoyu may not have reached her "peak strength" yet.
But don't forget, Xiaoyu is now surrounded by "newbie players".
Judging from Xiaoyu's current abilities, subtly inserting her "thoughts" into other people's heads... shouldn't be too difficult for her.
"The united front of human civilization"...we must start cultivating this from childhood!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but say to Xiaoyu.
"Xiaoyu, have you ever thought about forming your own team?"
"My own team?" Xiaoyu tilted her head.
"Yes! You have to understand that in this world, one person's strength is ultimately limited, and many times you will need help."
That's why our organization has gradually developed and attracted many like-minded partners.
Meng Lang raised his finger, solemnly imparting his life experience.
"Uncle, you mean... you want me to be the squad leader and take charge of a squad independently?"
Xiaoyu thought about it for a moment, and her eyes immediately lit up.
"So what are the specific missions of this squad? Is it to protect our base, or to train future talent?"
Is it used to spy on enemy countries, or to assassinate important targets?
Uh... I just wanted you to start a "Little Radish Branch"...
Are you trying to build a "Rain Village" directly?
