There was a moment of silence in the air, and the white mist curled up from the mouth of the tea cup on the desk, changing its shape. It seemed that you could hear the tinkling sound coming from the window far away. It was the ship's bell, and there was a ship raising its white sail in the distance.
Departing from port.
Su Changfeng looked at Fang Plover, who was standing there in a daze, and continued: "Your father and mother are both qualified to be selected. They have stayed in Aitaria for a long time. To put it simply, they are both selected.
Reader. Do you still remember the hospital where you were born?"
Fang Yu stood there and had a quiet feeling in his head, as if he was out of his own perspective and listening to a story that had nothing to do with him in another identity. The memories before the age of six were fragmented, and the impressions of his parents were already specious.
, but he still heard the name of the place where he was born from his uncle and aunt:
Qionghua City First District Central Hospital.
"You haven't checked that place, have you? It's not far from Wenchang. Before the completion of the space elevator, it was the location of the previous generation of orbital launchers. It was one of several emerging cities that emerged with the space boom in the middle of the last century. But it's too old.
It has been a long time since your history books mentioned that after the Stargate Port was built, the mass projectors there were decommissioned and sealed, and that place was gradually transformed from a talent reserve base to a return port for the selected...
"
Su Changfeng's tone was calm and unhurried, and Fang Plover also listened quietly. Some people would suddenly become interested in his birth and origin, but his uncle's family's care for him accompanied him through his childhood. He did indeed
He had heard some things about his parents, but not in detail. When there was no one around him, he would sometimes think about the reason why his parents were so irresponsible to him, leaving him and never coming back. But it wasn't until a long time later that he
Really understand what it means to never return.
Regarding the death of his parents, he only knew that it was caused by an air crash. Considering his emotions, his uncle and aunt rarely mentioned all this. However, he can still check the details of the air crash on the Internet, including the airline it belonged to and the time.
The plane was traveling to Moscow when it lost contact with the flight, and disappeared on the border of Kyrgyzstan. The wreckage was found a week later, and no one on board survived.
He didn't know why they went to that place. Maybe it was for work. His uncle and aunt didn't say a word about his parents' work, but he himself more or less guessed some of the reasons. This was because he was very young.
The reason why I became interested in this world.
There are still many gaps between guessing and confirming. He never thought that his parents were both Chosen. The Star Gate has created a lot of related work since its birth, and the practitioners of ultra-competition may not necessarily be from another world.
Adventurer.
"...The Central Hospital of Qionghua City's First District is actually a psychological counseling and rehabilitation center for the electors. The first district is actually the airport area. Only such an emerging city can have such an administrative plan, at least for about ten years.
before they were revoked."
"Due to the confidentiality agreement, we also found out your parents' information from your birth information. Your father is the second batch of selectees, Fang Zi, born on July 9, 2082 AD, male, Han nationality
, she was fifteen years old when she entered the Star Gate. Your mother was the third batch to enter the Star Gate. He Xiyue, born on June 12, 2086 AD, female, Han nationality, fourteen years old when she entered the Star Gate, is a star
We plan to reserve talents for training.”
"Tracing this information, we found out the last time your parents left Starport, around November 2112. The reason for their return was that the woman was pregnant. The advice given by Starport Medical Center was to return to Earth for treatment, so
The assigned psychological guidance and rehabilitation center was the Central Hospital in District 1, Qionghua City. About half a year later, you were born there."
Su Changfeng paused for a moment, "Absolutely, that happened seventeen years ago."
Fang Plover opened his mouth.
There were no stormy waves in his heart, but he was not at peace either. He just seemed calm with a hint of surprise, listening to a story about a past era.
Compared to ordinary people, it was already a legendary experience. He described the outline of his parents in his heart. Their boldness, aggressiveness, gambler mentality, and extraordinary courage were all for that generation of electors.
Describe. And what kind of people are his parents? Fang Zi and He Xiyue, these two names are unfamiliar to him every time he sees them, but they also have a strange kind of kindness.
The white mist at the mouth of the teacup rose higher and higher, turning into a sail.
In the mist, Su Changfeng seemed to have guessed his reaction, and said calmly: "If the situation permits, we don't mind talking to you about your parents, just about their lives behind the Star Gate.
In fact, we don’t know much about experience. In the face of this complex configuration, the mastery of the world behind the star gate, what humans currently have is still like that of a child..."
"...But at least we found your parents' IDs from the file." He slowly reached into his pocket, pulled out a piece of paper, and handed it to Fang Plover, "Your father's ID
It’s a sword plover, a bird that flies far away, and your mother’s ID is part of her name, Xiyue, so you should have guessed that this is the origin of your name.”
Fang Yu quietly took the page. On the paper were portraits of his parents, who were much younger than he remembered. He was born like his mother, and did not inherit his father's tall and handsome appearance. He seemed a bit quiet and understated. The portrait was written in scrawled
The two IDs were written down in the note.
sword plover,
Xiyue——
He unconsciously touched the words on the paper with his hand, as if he could touch the past through the handwriting.
"This is part of the personal belongings left by your parents in the Star Port. We used current technology to project it into this world. If you want, we can return these relics after you return to the Star Port.
"Original owner," Su Changfeng said: "However, these personal belongings left in the star port at least indicate one thing. Your parents may still have planned to return to the star gate."
The originally vague impression of his parents gradually became clearer as the other party's description gradually became clearer. Fang Yu seemed to have an indescribable feeling in his heart. He suddenly raised his head and asked: "You said they originally planned to return to the Star Gate. What did you mean?
mean?"
"That's literally what it means."
Fang Yu held the piece of paper, and suddenly there was some mist in front of his eyes. He thought he didn't care anymore because his uncle and aunt had made up for everything he had lost, but in fact that was not the case. It was as if those two abstract names were changing with each other.
The portraits in his hands became concrete, time had been left in the accident forever, and these things no longer waited for their former owners.
It took seventeen years for them to wait for him, his parents' child.
Tears rolled down his cheeks and landed on the portrait, soaking it all. Fang Yu hurriedly wiped it with his hands.
Su Changfeng looked at his clumsy movements and said, "I plan to tell you another thing about your parents, but you must be mentally prepared."
Fang Yu sniffed hard and raised his head to look at him.
Su Changfeng fell silent, recalling in his mind the information he had seen during the investigation over the past few days. In fact, everything had come to light half a month ago, but he had never decided whether to tell the other party this, and
Who did he mention it to? But he finally decided to speak, because everything in front of him was inextricably linked to that information. Even if he didn't say it, the other party would understand it sooner or later as the investigation deepened.
"But as the first relative, he should have the right to know."
After a brief silence, Su Changfeng considered and said: "Your uncle and aunt may not be related to you. Your uncle's original name is Tang Mo. He was born in Changsha, Hunan. He is the only child in the family and has no brothers or sisters. He is far away.
Your cousin also has no surname. And according to our investigation, your uncle was also qualified for selection, and even went to the same training camp as your father. The files show that he had at least seven years of qualifications as a selector. In his early years, he was your
Father’s partner——”
Before he could finish speaking, there was a snap, and Fang Pulmon took a step back, knocking over the tea cup on the desk. The cup rolled to the floor, broke into several pieces, and the tea spilled all over the floor. But Fang Plov didn't notice it at all, and only used a
He looked at Su Changfeng in front of him with an expression of disbelief.
Su Changfeng heard another subtle voice coming from outside the door. He glanced in that direction and didn't pay too much attention. Looking back, Su Changfeng continued to look at Fang Plover.
"W-what did you say...?"
"I said, your uncle's family is not related to you. Moreover, he also served as a Chosen One for a period of time. He returned to Earth about seven years before your father. After that, he changed his current name, married a wife and had children.
.”
"But your uncle and your father are close friends. That's why he adopted you after your parents' accident. Here is a copy of the document. It has a certificate issued by the court and a notary's signature. This is a copy of the document.
Proof of support, approved and signed by relatives on your parents’ side.”
Su Changfeng opened the drawer and took out a stack of documents, "This is the most direct proof, proving the true relationship between your 'uncle' family and you. In fact, since your uncle and parents are both chosen ones, we spent a lot of time
It took a lot of effort to get this information from the court system, and they all have a certain level of confidentiality."
Fang Plover stood there dumbfounded.
"Ed," Su Changfeng called his name in this world, "You don't have to blame them. You should understand that this is a white lie."
But Fang Plover didn't say a word.
It was as if his understanding of the past ten years suddenly collapsed. He did not doubt that his uncle's family had any bad intentions towards him. Some things could be faked, but the love given to him by his uncle and aunt was real. But it was just them.
Why did he do this? He thought of his own experience of going to this world. His parents were also chosen ones, and his uncle had the same experience, but why were they so opposed to his coming to this world?
He was not a fool. He almost thought of this joint at once. The notebook that appeared in the hands of the eldest princess, the notebook that appeared in his uncle's study, and the notes about Ettaria that he had seen when he was a child.
Those little things.
The reason why they appeared there turned out to be very simple, because my uncle had also been to this world before.
"But why are you telling me this?" Fang Yu asked in an almost inaudible voice.
"Remember what I mentioned to you last time. The snakehead who took you into the Star Gate died in the confinement room of the Star Gate Port. There is another thing I didn't tell you at the time, but you
Do you still remember how you contacted the other party?"
Fang Yu vaguely recalled what happened at that time. How did he contact the snakehead? Of course he took the initiative to find it. But suddenly a light flashed in his heart, as if he vaguely completed the story at that time.
The details reminded him of something.
Fang Yu hesitated for a moment and replied: "I... know him through acquaintances. The community said that he is very reliable and is a staff member of Stargate Port. He..."
The community says…
Is the other party reliable?
If it were anyone else, Su Changfeng would probably be happy to hear this. This guy seems to have never been fooled or deceived at all. His precious daughter will no longer do this at the age of ten. But seeing that the other party is in a bad mood,
For his own sake, he politely maintained his original expression.
"Who did you know him from?"
"A few familiar friends in the community..."
"How familiar is it?"
"We often chat together, and we all have a common topic... Guan, about smuggling, they set up a group, and almost all of them are people who have not obtained the qualifications..." Fang Yu's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke.
It's like confessing the facts of his crime.
Su Changfeng flicked his fingers, and a light screen appeared in front of the two of them. "Is it this group?" Fang Yu took a look and couldn't help being slightly surprised. On the light screen was the group he had joined before.
The name of the group on the community is 'Aitaria'. Since there are many people with the same name, there is a number after it, so the full name is 'Aitaria #005679'.
But what really surprised him was that he remembered that this group was very active two years ago, and he knew most of the people in it, but now those familiar names have long since faded away. The group is now empty.
, no one is online.
He couldn't help but glance at Su Changfeng with some fear, thinking that the military might have caught all these people. Unexpectedly, Su Changfeng saw what he was thinking, shook his head and said: "You may not know
, not long after you left for Aitaria, the people in this group disappeared one by one."
Fang Yu was shocked: "How is that possible?"
"That's the truth," Su Changfeng pointed to a few of the names. "It's not just the disappearance in the sense of the Internet. After that, we checked the whereabouts of some people here. Don't look at me like that. It's just what you imagined."
That 'check the water meter'. These people not only disappeared on the Internet, but also disappeared in real life, and their whereabouts are still unknown."
He pointed to another name. That name was at the top of the group, under the organizer, and the id was rekehtopa. Fang Yu still remembered this id. Although it looked like a meaningless string of characters, he
Remember clearly - it was this person who recommended the smuggler to me.
"That's him." Fang Yu couldn't help but whisper.
"He was the one who recommended that snakehead to you, right?" Su Changfeng guessed what he wanted to say as if he was reading his mind.
Fang Yu looked at the other party as if he had seen a ghost.
"Don't be surprised, we have done a lot of things in the past six months, but you don't know it," Su Changfeng replied quietly, "You may not know that this person not only recommended the smuggler to you, he also...
Before contacting the other party, I will help you pay a large 'deposit'——"
Fang Yu seemed to be listening to a fantasy story: "Why?"
"There is no reason, and don't guess how much the 'deposit' is. I can only tell you that it is many, many times the amount of money you have. In a sense, it is enough to buy a life."
Su Changfeng's voice was faint, which made Fang Yu feel a creepy feeling rising from his back.
"...Why?" he still asked.
"No one knows that this ID corresponds to a false identity. Anyone who can do this under today's identity authentication is definitely not a good person," Su Changfeng replied: "But you are the party involved, and at the same time
You have cooperated with us again, so we have an obligation to give you a warning——"
He paused, as if to emphasize: "One possible guess is that maybe someone wants you to come to this world..."
It was noon, and Hexi's sunlight was passing through the bright glass windows and falling on the floor of the room. The wood in the fireplace was burning brightly, but Fang Plover could not feel the slightest temperature, and only felt waves of dizziness.
Before he came to this world, he was just an ordinary student party. Why would anyone want to come to Aitaria for no reason? Entering the Star Gate is not a bad thing. I don’t know how many people have sharpened their heads.
I only seek one qualification for calling, which is no different than twenty or thirty years ago.
As long as a matter is driven by interests, it is not surprising that there are people plotting behind the scenes. But there are people who do good deeds without leaving their names. Not only do they not seek names, they even inexplicably make profits for a person who is not related to them and spend a lot of money to send him away.
After arriving at the star gate.
What is this for?
A boring pastime for a person who doesn't regard money as money?
It was difficult for Fang Plover to convince himself of this reason.
The first thing that came to his mind was R, which was actually the mysterious Shana, and then everyone around him. There was a complex disagreement in his mind. On the one hand, he wanted to confirm this to make himself feel at ease. But on the other hand, he wanted to confirm this to reassure himself.
On the one hand, he didn't want someone he knew to be involved with him.
There is a human life behind it.
He opened his mouth for a moment, and finally managed to make some sound: "rekehtopa is..."
"Don't worry," Su Changfeng replied: "This ID has nothing to do with your uncle."
Fang Yu let out a sigh of relief. This was the thing he was most worried about.
But he immediately realized that since he had nothing to do with his uncle's family, why did he mention his uncle again?
Su Changfeng saw that he had actually reacted, and thought to himself that his previous decision was not wrong, and then he said:
"After you entered the Stargate, someone tried to retrieve the relics your parents left in the Stargate Port. Coincidentally, because you registered as a Chosen One through us before that, the Port Management Office had no intention of handling the relics.
We discovered that they had higher-level inheritance rights, so we were notified directly."
He clicked on the page in Fang Yu's hand, "We investigated the person who went to retrieve the relics and found that the person did not leave his true identity. However, after further inspection, we found that this person had used the airport's communications at Stargate Port.
The terminal has had several brief contacts with the ground, and the objects of contact..."
