Chapter 105 Surfaced
"Help me hear what they are saying?"
Tang Xuan turned his head and said to the No. 1 assistant character.
The No. 1 assistant character twisted the air with his hand and twisted up a very thin orange-red light. The light fell to the ground and moved along the corner of the wall. If you don't look carefully, you won't notice it.
A few seconds later, a voice sounded in the room.
".It is an investigator from the 808th Regiment of the Ziwei Star Federation Garrison. A spaceship using your engine technology exploded nearby. I would like to ask your technicians to check the situation and find out the cause of the explosion."
"What? This is impossible!"
Swish (showing certificates and relevant documents)
"Okay, but there is absolutely no problem with our technology."
"How long do we need to wait?"
"The laboratory is quite far from here. It will take about an hour to get there. Everyone, please go inside and wait with me."
"No need, we will wait in the car."
Tang Xuan raised his eyebrows. It seems that the crashed spaceship he was on was rescued. The reaction speed of the Ziwei Star Garrison was really fast.
He didn't know that the garrison on Ziwei Star was also nervous during this period. The large-scale disappearance of the population made them very stressed. The patrol frequency was doubled, so they soon found the crashed spaceship.
Thinking of the crashed spaceship, he remembered the bald man who was sleeping next door.
The No. 1 assistant carefully checked the bald man's body and confirmed that he had no other problems except for the emptiness of his body. He should wake up soon.
The sound in the house suddenly stopped.
Tang Xuan cast a puzzled look at the No. 1 assistant, and the No. 1 assistant pointed at the door, indicating that someone was coming.
A few seconds later, Tang Xuan heard footsteps. The footsteps were very light and fast, and Tang Xuan thought he seemed to know who was coming.
"Hey, inside!"
"Come out!"
"Take your friends and follow me."
Xiao Baixue shouted outside the door with her hands on her waist.
Tang Xuan responded in a low voice: "I'm coming."
He led the No. 1 assistant out of the door.
Tang Xuan asked, "What happened again?"
"Grandma said she wanted to talk to you." Little Snow White muttered, "She finally woke up for a while, and she actually wasted time talking to you."
Old lady.
Tang Xuan's expression straightened.
The old lady is still the most suspicious person now.
She saw them fighting with the light and dark corrosive bodies and was frightened to a certain extent. But she was so calm afterwards and said they were her guests and wanted to keep them. She almost wrote the word "problem" on her forehead.
Tang Xuan asked, "What does she want to talk to us about?"
Little Snow White asked back, "How should I know?"
Tang Xuan was speechless for a moment.
Little Snow White turned her head and looked, "Aren't there three of you? Where did the hairless guy go?"
Tang Xuan hesitated and said, "My friend hit his head when he climbed over the wall. Let him rest for a while."
Little Snow White pouted, "Huh, stupid thief! Follow me."
She turned around and led the way.
Tang Xuan and the No. 1 assistant followed Xiao Baixue to the courtyard where they found the bald man before.
The house was lit with soft lights.
"Grandma, I brought someone here."
"Are you still awake?"
Xiao Baixue asked softly outside the door.
If the old lady became unconscious again, she would take Tang Xuan and the others back and not let them disturb the old lady.
An old and kind voice came from inside the door.
"Bai Xue, let them in."
Xiao Baixue turned and glared at Tang Xuan and the No. 1 assistant. She lowered her voice and said, "Grandma is old and can't stand the tossing. If you cross the line a little bit, I will put you in jail."
Tang Xuan waved his hand: "Don't worry, we are not bad people."
"Humph, bad people don't say they are bad people."
Xiao Baixue gently pushed the door open.
Tang Xuan and the No. 1 assistant walked in. Xiao Baixue also wanted to follow in, but was stopped by the old lady.
"Bai Xue, go play."
Little Bai Xue dragged out the words: "Grandma——"
The old lady said kindly: "Be good, be obedient."
Little Bai Xue pursed her lips: "Okay then"
She stepped back and closed the door.
Tang Xuan looked up and saw the old lady sitting in a corner of the room. After careful observation, she actually put on a layer of light makeup, some powder on her face, and lipstick.
The old lady was thin, and her sitting posture concealed the hunchback caused by old age. From a distance, she vaguely had the grace of her youth.
Tang Xuan strode forward: "Hello."
The old lady looked at herself in the mirror, then turned around slowly, and the first sentence she said made Tang Xuan excited: "I guess you are wondering who I am."
Tang Xuan was stunned.
The old lady slowly said: "I am no one, I am me. What do you want to know more about?"
Tang Xuan was silent for two seconds. He thought about several possibilities in his mind, and finally asked: "How much do you know about [Eleanor]?"
"[Eleanor]? I haven't heard of this name, but if you are asking about the monsters that appeared today, I can tell you something." The old lady slowly said, "But before that, you have to promise me one thing."
Tang Xuan asked: "What is it?"
"I can't hold on anymore, but Bai Xue needs someone to take care of her. After I die, I hope you can-"
"Woo woo."
There was a low sob outside the door.
The old lady showed a trace of helplessness on her face, and she whispered: "Hey, Bai Xue, you'd better come in, it's windy outside. Grandma knows you won't be obedient."
Squeak——
Little Bai Xue came in crying: "Grandma, you won't die, you definitely won't."
She threw herself on the old lady's knees.
No matter what the truth is, the relationship between this pair of grandparents and grandchildren is real. Tang Xuan felt a little complicated when he saw this scene.
The old lady stroked little Bai Xue's hair lovingly: "Bai Xue was adopted from the First Welfare House of the Imperial Palace. At that time, I saw that she looked pretty and smart, so I was happy, and hurriedly went through the procedures and brought her back. A lot of things have happened in the past few years, but I am more and more convinced that Bai Xue is a good girl, and my decision was not wrong."
Tang Xuan's face was hesitant.
The old lady raised her hand politely.
"What do you want to say?"
Tang Xuan whispered: "As far as I know, your wealth is enough to buy half of the Ziwei star, why do you entrust Bai Xue to us?"
The old lady sighed: "Alas, this is a long story. It was only after I adopted Bai Xue for a while that I realized that Bai Xue was not an ordinary person."
Tang Xuan stared at the trembling body of little Bai Xue.
Could it be that
"I have never told anyone about this."
"Bai Xue has a brother. I have only met him once. The monsters you met today are all his subordinates."
