Chapter 91: Torch/Dungeon End Pursuit Monthly Pass)
He Ao climbed into the house through the open window, and there were 30 seconds left in the countdown to return.
The research institute is located in the Aston area, and is not far from Ridgit's home, but obviously there is not enough time to wait for the elevator. He Ao climbed directly from outside the building along the wall to the 37th floor and returned home.
.
He took out the small silver box that ejected from Nadja's body, unscrewed the box, and inside lay a folded piece of parchment.
He Ao unfolded the parchment, and lines of ancient writing were revealed. At the same time, some twisted thinking began to try to affect his spirit.
He Ao did not recognize these words, but he naturally understood the content written on this piece of paper.
[Talent Sequence 45: Collector]
[Main materials: 1 Ancient Mist Bead, 1 Corpse Flower]
[Preparation method: Grind the corpse flower into powder, mix it with the ancient mist beads and let it stand for a day and night, then add the antique powder, dew, and bark, and heat it in an 80-degree water bath for 30 minutes.]
As He Ao read the words on the parchment, the entire parchment slowly twisted and turned into dust and dissipated.
Is there a formula for the talent sequence secret medicine?
He Ao probably understood what was recorded on this piece of paper. He wrote down the formula and walked up the stairs step by step to the bedside.
He slowly picked up a photo frame on the bedside. In the photo frame, an old woman was hugging a strong middle-aged man. The two looked at the camera with a smile.
He Ao picked up the wet wipes on the side and wiped the entire photo frame carefully.
Then he smiled and placed the photo frame on the bedside again.
"Mother, I did it."
The appearance of the middle-aged man overlapped inch by inch with his figure at this moment.
The silver-haired old man slowly lay on the bed and closed his eyes little by little.

"Hello."
The dark-haired woman sitting in the FBI lobby answered the phone.
"Hello, are you Miss Ikari?"
"I am, you are?"
"I'm Christos. Do you have free time tomorrow night? I'd like to invite you to a dinner party."
"Can I ask what the dinner is?"
“The Charity Fundraising Dinner of ‘Morning Street Children’s Aid Society’.”
Ikari froze on the spot. She slowly put down her bracelet and looked at the FBI's big screen.
At this moment, the screen was broadcasting live news about the attack by alien beasts in Aston, and her eyes fell on the photo of the huge alien beast. In the corner of the photo, a blurry silver-haired old man was holding a sword and charging resolutely.
Towards that terrifying behemoth.
——
"Well, that's about it...Did the old man pass away at home? Okay...I understand."
Selena fell silent.
"I will apply for a Federal Red Star Medal for him."
Smith on the other end of the phone said softly that the Federal Red Star Medal is the highest medal awarded to civilians who sacrificed their lives in the fight against alien beasts, to reward those heroes who, although they have no responsibility, still sacrifice their lives to save others.
"This is not for the mayor..."
Selena opened her mouth.
"This medal does not need to go through the mayor,"
Smith said calmly, "It is the federal responsibility to defend human civilization."
"Thanks."
Selina lowered her head and whispered.
"Actually, I envy him very much," Smith said suddenly. "I hope that when I grow old, I can be like him and fight against alien beasts until the last moment."
"director···"
Selena looked at Smith.
"The topic has gone too far," Smith shook his head. "I'm going to find trouble with those idiots now. There is obviously news about strange beasts, but I turned them away because of my own stupidity. If you and that old man weren't here, I wouldn't be here today."
You know how big of a disaster it will cause, right?"
He remembered something, "Aren't you on vacation this afternoon? I'll give you an extra half day off tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work. Enjoy your vacation."
After saying that, he cut off the phone.
well--
Selena sighed and rubbed her face,
"Sister," a childish voice came from behind, "Are you worried again?"
After hearing this, Selina took a deep breath and smiled.
She adjusted her casual dress, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, she slowly turned around.
A little boy wearing a white coat, holding a toy pistol and a small bag appeared in her sight.
"Sorry, my sister was delayed because of something when she got off work."
"It's okay," the little boy shook his head. He picked up his little bag and brought it to Selina. "The grilled sausage has a lot of meat and is still hot. After eating it, I won't be so unhappy."
Selena was stunned. He took the small bag from the little boy and took the little boy's hand. "Sister, will you take you to meet a pair of uncles and aunts today? They like children very much."
"Oh," the little boy nodded and was led forward by Selina, "Then do they have more than a thousand federal coins?"
"Yes," Selina didn't know why the little boy asked this question, but she patiently explained, "Although they are not very rich, they can still afford more than a thousand federal coins."
"Well."
The boy kicked the stones and followed Selina, the light of the setting sun spreading under their feet.

"Charity dinner! It's for us!" The red-haired girl suddenly pressed Igali on the sofa.
"Fuck you, Carrie, where did you get this thing? Once this is done, we will have the money to build a huge school!
Say, are you some kind of anonymous chaebol lady? Hurry, admit it! Don’t you want to give your best friend a small gift? I just want a sports car. I don’t have high requirements. Any brand will do. I want it to be pink and good-looking.
, convertible.”
"Annie, don't make trouble." Yi Jiali opened her best friend's door. She knew that this charity dinner had little to do with her. She looked at her best friend seriously, "Have you thought about what our school will be called?"
"Isn't it just called Ande Elementary School?"
Anne was a little confused.
"How about calling it Ender Ridget Elementary School?"
Yi Jiali thought for a while and said.
"Why did you add this name suddenly?"
"I can't explain it for a while, what do you think?"
"I think it's okay?" Annie blinked and stared at her best friend, "Then how are you going to write the school motto? Didn't we originally plan to use Ender's story? You have to think clearly. A good school motto may affect these things.
A child’s life.”
Ijiali was silent for a moment and suddenly said, "Although the night is cold, there will always be someone lighting a torch."
"Ah?" Anne was stunned for a moment, "Carrie, you have changed. How can you say such philosophical words?"
"?" Igali went directly up to rub Annie's face, "Although these words are indeed not what I said, why can't I say it? I am a doctor of law, OK, doctor!"
"I think it's pretty good," Annie suddenly said after a bit of fussing, "In the future, the children our school will accept will probably be children living in the dark. We are the ones who light the torch for them, and when they grow up,
, and maybe light a torch for others too.”
Even though the hero dies, the torch remains.

Roger slowly opened the door, walked into the room step by step, and looked at the smiling old man sleeping in the room.
"Is this Dr. Roger?" A staff member wearing an FBI badge said softly next to him. "This old gentleman donated his body to you for research use. Do you want us to help you transport the body?"
"
"No," Roger shook his head. His eyes glanced at the bedside table and finally stopped at the cryptocurrency hardware wallet he had given away. "I ordered the services of the funeral home. He deserves a grand funeral."
He stared at the old man's cheek.
Since then, he has lost one friend.

He Ao, who returned to the main world, stared at the subtitles flashing in his sight,
