The campus is very lively when school is about to end, with teachers wearing puppet costumes, hanging and flying balloons, various walking toy cars, and little puppets playing music.
"Grandma, I'm here~" A little girl in the distance waved happily. She was standing by the flower bed, and there were several children of the same age beside her. Her face was painted with colorful colors, and she was holding a colorful rotating paper pinwheel in her hand.
Today is Children's Day. Hexia accompanied Grandma He to the school to visit Lisa and visit the school activities.
Although it is an underground city, the environment of primary school and kindergarten is still very sunny, with a rare simulated sky, the grass on the campus is also a real plant, and automatic robots sprinkle water every day.
Thanks to the reform 400 years ago, federally stipulated kindergartens and primary schools must ensure adequate lighting, close to the natural environment, tuition exemptions, and teachers’ salaries are borne by the government, trying to give federal residents a better childhood.
Because this is a critical period for personality formation.
Although some people initially questioned the high expenditure, it was still approved by the vast majority of residents in the Federation. Later, the society became much more stable, and it gradually became a long-term national policy, and no one objected to it anymore.
Because children have unstable minds, immature bodies, and insufficient knowledge reserves, they have not started to practice the extraordinary sequence. They are only in the stage of theoretical accumulation. It is illegal for anyone to teach children in advance.
Historically, it is not that no one has thought about overthrowing the talent, and there have been several debates about this within the Federation. However, later, a large amount of data showed that the harm caused by practicing the extraordinary sequence at an early age is still greater than the weak first-mover advantage. The final decision was made.
, established this rule.
This rule also brings another benefit, that is, because the children have not yet practiced the extraordinary sequence, the differences between the children will not be obvious, so it is more conducive to healthy physical and mental growth.
Otherwise, you will have to face cruel involution and competitive pressure starting from elementary school. It will be difficult to say that your life will be beautiful when you grow up like this. It will be difficult to remain cheerful and not depressed.
"Oh, my dear granddaughter." Grandma He walked over with a smile. She has been feeling much better in the past two days.
"Come, tell grandma what show you performed today."
"Today we acted out the story of four cotton ducks fighting the dark fire devil. In the end, the big devil was defeated by our super love candy bombs. He also said that this was the flavor he missed and liked the most..."
Hesia leaned over and watched the children in front of her chattering around Grandma He, feeling a sense of humor and simple happiness.
"This is for sister Hesia, here~" Lisa held three lollipops in her small hands and handed them to the girl.
"The delicious candies are the prizes we won in the performance competition. The teacher gave each of us a box. We can eat them for a long time."
"Thank you Lisa." Heshia took the candy she handed over and looked at the logo on it carefully. It was produced in Payin City and had quite a lot of flavors.
"Sister Heshia, eat one, it's delicious."
Several children surrounded Hesia. Although some of them did not know her, because Lisa was their good friend, they naturally thought that Hesia was very close to her.
"Okay, then I'll choose the green orange flavor."
The girl tore open the candy wrapper and revealed a light cyan candy. She gently put it into her mouth, and a mixed fruity sweetness overflowed on her tongue.
The taste is really good, a little better than what she had when she was a child. Maybe this manufacturer has improved it.
While Grandma He was talking to Hesia and a few children, several other children from a distance also trotted over.
Most of their homes are nearby, and these few also took supplementary classes with Grandma He, so they naturally remember Heshia, the elder sister who taught them for a while.
"That's Sister Heshia. She's so powerful. She can knock down bad guys who are out of control, and there are many more. She's even better than the teacher!"
"You're better than the teacher, you're bragging again~"
"That's not what I said. Even Sandy said that." Sandy was the kid who wore glasses when he was studying at Grandma He's house. He was always among the top three in his grade, so everyone knew him.
"Sandy really said that? It doesn't feel right. He is always proud and doesn't usually talk to us."
"Humph, he pretends to be like an adult. I don't like playing with him the most. He always talks about all kinds of things. It's so annoying."
"I won't tell you, but my brother came to pick me up. He said he would treat me to a big dinner today, bye~" As he said this, the child ran towards the school gate, where a young man wearing a high school uniform was smiling and waving to him.
"Wow, this guy ran away early again."
The campus was noisy, with adults taking their children to various stalls and play spots. A layer of pale golden fire clouds appeared on the edge of the simulated sky, and a purple-red glow reflected the sky.
When it got dark, Grandma He and Heshia took Lisha home. The three of them left the glorious campus and slowly walked into the familiar corridor elevator.
Along the way, I met many neighbors who were off work. This is the busiest time in residential areas. Many people go shopping and go for walks. You can see many adults and children in small parks in residential areas.
Although this underground park square does not have a simulated sky, it is also equipped with bright night lights, making it the brightest place in a dark residential area.
"What would Lisa want to eat today?" Grandma He asked her on the way.
"I want to eat fish, such a big fish~"
"Lisha rarely ate fish before, so why do you want to eat this today?"
"Because the teacher said that ducks eat fish, today I acted as a duck and also eat fish." The child's reason was so simple and clear.
"Okay, grandma will buy fish for you."
The three of them walked to the supermarket, bought groceries for tonight, and then returned home.
He Cheng and Lisha's parents had not yet gotten off work. Grandma He and Hexia began to prepare in advance. The sound of cooking gradually came from the kitchen, and Grandma He also carefully told Hexia some life skills.
jingle--
The doorbell rang outside, which surprised the two of them, because everyone else in the house had keys and identification, so they didn't need to press this button.
"There's a knock on the door." Lisa ran into the kitchen and said to the two adults.
"Let me go take a look." Hesia put down the things in her hands.
Looking at the image on the display screen next to the door, Heshia felt surprised. After all, the other party's clothes were indeed very special, or 'unsophisticated'.
Finally, the door opened and the three people outside introduced themselves.
"Hello, is this Ms. He's home? I am a member of the Zhenshan Office. This time I was entrusted by the Payin City Government to investigate and handle some matters." He showed his certificate, which can be checked online.
.
The three people in front of them are dressed in retro styles, with a rather oriental charm. The outer robes have a yellow base and black edges, with wide sleeves and open chests, and elegant belts.
But if you look closely, you will find that this is definitely not an ancient Oriental. He is wearing smart trousers, an Uchimura-woven superfiber breastplate on his upper body, a roulette scanner on his waist, and an electromagnetic rifle on his back. He is definitely a professional.
"Oh, who are you?" Grandma He also came over after hearing the news and saw these people outside.
Seeing the distinctly oriental faces of Grandma He and Lisha, the three people's voices became much softer.
"Hello, old man, we are members of the firm. We have received a task from the federal government this time to solve the problem of those who lost control before..." The three explained in detail.
It turns out that the out-of-control incident that occurred during this period was not only the one Hesia encountered that day, but also several were found in other places. The most eye-catching one was the accident that happened on the commercial street that day.
In order to prepare for the concert, Payin City deliberately suppressed the news. Now that the concert is over, it is natural to start to deal with these issues.
"So, the Federation is asking you to help, right?"
"Yes, our 'Zhenshan Office' has cooperated with the governments of the northern districts of Jade Skirt. We have investigated and handled difficult matters in the Northern Fifth and Northern Eighth Districts several times, and gained the trust of the regional governments. This is our firm's responsibility.
Rating." As he spoke, the man in front of him opened the personal terminal on his wrist and displayed a logo with a secret text, indicating that their firm's strength evaluation was 'B-' and its credibility was 'A'.
Generally speaking, only firms with an 'A' credibility will receive tasks assigned by the government, and these tasks are often well-paid.
"That's it." Hesia nodded thoughtfully, and looked at the people in front of her.
The man at the head of them looks to be in his 30s and has the strength of a Spirit Sequence 5. The two people behind him, one looks to be in his forties and the other is in his early twenties, both are Sequence 4.
level.
"Excuse me, are you Miss Hesia Tilan?" He looked at the gray-haired girl in front of him.
In appearance, this girl is a bit slender, wearing glasses, with long gray hair and a common student uniform. She is not conspicuous, and her arms and legs are not strong. It is difficult to imagine how she defeated the out-of-control person. It is said that she was
Only sequence 2.
"I am." The girl nodded.
"Can I ask you about the details of what happened at that time?" He pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a light blue light flashed, indicating that he had entered the recording state.
"Okay, but let's talk outside." Afraid of being implicated and scaring Grandma He's family, Hexia took the initiative to come out.
"Hesia." Grandma He took her hand and hinted that she could refuse, but not to agree easily.
"It's okay." Hesia shook her head, and then followed the three of them out.
The group of people came to a small activity field in the residential area, stood beside a bench and started talking.
"My name is Yang De, one of the executive officers of the firm this time. Nice to meet you." He said he was very happy, but his square and cold face really made people unhappy.
However, the other party does not have any malicious intentions. The girl can vaguely sense the other party's emotions. This is also an ability she gained after recently advancing to Withering Sequence 3.
"Sorry, Brother Yang is like this. Let me introduce you. The uncle here is called Pascal. My name is Luther, and I am also a member of this operation." The young man behind him came up to ease the atmosphere.
"We just arrived yesterday and saw a lot of information provided by the government. Now we are divided into several teams to investigate, and we are one of them. Because your experience is quite special, we want to find out more about it from you."
"Just asking some ordinary questions. If you feel uncomfortable, you don't need to answer." With the mediation of this operator, the atmosphere at the scene finally relaxed a bit.
"Why don't we find a restaurant to sit down for a while? I happen to be hungry too. Can you tell me if it's Uncle Pascal?"
"That's right, it's better to find a place to sit for a while than to stand around." The gray-haired uncle patted Yang Dai on the shoulder, and then Yang Dai nodded, and several people invited Hexia to go to the street.
restaurant for dinner.
After entering the store, a few people looked around briefly before sitting down and letting Heshia order.
"We just arrived and are not familiar with each other. You are from around here, so you should know what is delicious."
"Okay." Hexia opened the menu displayed on the personal terminal and ordered 4 ordinary T6-level standard set meals, which were about 35 yuan each, which was considered good value for money.
Several other people didn't care when they saw it. They seemed to be satisfied with having a standard meal instead of emergency food.
"Please wait a moment." The owner and his wife of this shop only said something after seeing the order, and asked the chef to start preparing.
After a while, the freshly cooked hot food was served, and several people started talking slowly.
"Hesia just graduated from junior high school."
"Yes, I am still preparing for the re-examination and part-time job."
"I am very hard-working and diligent. My children are about the same age as you. Now they just focus on playing." Uncle Pascal spoke first, and then they slowly talked about the environment in this area.
"These uncles must have been to many places." Hesia suddenly said, she was actually very curious about how these people were dressed.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Why are you wearing such a coat outside? It's not very convenient to move around in such clothes."
"Oh, you said this, this is our firm's style, or identification mark. After all, there is competition between firms. There must be something different to make people remember it." Luther said in a broken voice.
Then Pascal added a few words from time to time, but Yang Di, the leader, remained silent.
"The founder of our firm is an Oriental. It is said that his ancestors also served in the dynasty. He likes this style very much. Furthermore, many of the techniques and methods we use are indeed inherited from the East, so they are worthy of the name."
"Live up to the name?"
"Yes, you see, the 'Xunfeng Eight Mountains Plate' in our hands can easily search for nearby beings and consciousness. It is a fine product of the 'Xianshu Workshop'. It also has some thunder methods and the like, which is a good helper in dealing with ghosts.
"
"We must make progress in suppressing demons and demons. Now is the era of laser gun fire." Luther on the side added.
The two briefly introduced each other, and Heshia's curiosity was slightly satisfied, and then she began to tell the three of them about the day's events.
"You're saying that the target of his initial attack was personal terminals, not you, right?"
"Well, that's right. It's probably because the magic power of the personal terminal fluctuates more obviously."
…
"Didn't he use any other skills besides biting after that?"
"Probably not. The opponent is already very powerful just by biting. I also narrowly escaped death." The girl shook her head.
The three of them asked very detailed questions and kept discussing with each other.
"It seems that the other party has almost lost all his sanity, and his body has also collapsed a lot, and even dropped a level."
"Well, the deceased had been in Dragon Sequence 4 for nearly thirty years before he was alive. The sending and receiving of abilities should have become instinctive, so he shouldn't be so weak."
"When he was young, he also won a place in a competition between schools, but he suffered a big blow and couldn't continue."
Listening to the judgments of several people, Heshia felt that the other party might be looking down on her, but she didn't care about such things.
Unlike those classmates who like to compete for the top spots and love to be in the limelight, Heshia has become accustomed to staying in the corner, and even likes this quiet and lonely feeling. No one will bother her, and there will be no conflicts or interruptions.
.
After finishing the meal, she held the drink cup and drank slowly, while her mind unconsciously thought of the previous scene in school.
Just like when I picked up Risa today, she also grew up with many friends. Unfortunately, some friends later followed their parents to other places, and some went to different schools and gradually became strangers to her.
Clara, on the other hand, has always been in the same class as her, but the two of them are the kind of people who have always known each other, but have never been particularly familiar with each other.
When she was in elementary school, Clara was a little shy and reticent, and her face still had a little baby fat, but now she can't tell it clearly...
"Then I'll trouble Miss Heshia to come here today." After asking for the information they wanted to know, the three of them stood up and were leaving now.
"Well, it's okay."
After settling the bill, the Luther trotted over again and said, "Leave your contact information, Hesia, maybe there will be places where we can help each other in the future."
"OK."
Finally, several years after obtaining a personal terminal, the number of people in Heshia's address book exceeded ten.
Thanks for the strong support of Xiao Qingji Da Shengli, this is all an illusion.
