"You kid, you didn't come from time travel, did you?"
The moment he heard this sentence, Jiang Yan's mind just buzzed, and he couldn't remember to maintain his expression or disguise. He was only shocked and confused.
"Oh, what are you talking about? Would you believe it if I said yes?"
"...That's right, I just said it casually." Hodel shrugged, "But for someone who has lost his memory, it's not normal for you to have such good skills and abilities." Jiang Shao averted his eyes, "You remember everything.
It’s amazing, I’m running around for a living. I’m also learning these things to live a better life.” While saying this, Jiang Yan couldn’t help but recall that when he first traveled through time a few years ago, he also held the thought, “Time travel is not all in novels.
"Things", I didn't expect that I would actually become a member of the time-traveling army...
Well, normal people wouldn't believe it when they see it. What's more, now I rarely have the feeling of a time traveler. I only regard myself as an ordinary Terran resident - the kind without identity. This is also a lot of Terran
There is no lack of pain points for residents.
Jiang Yan stood up and said, "Let's go, let's find a place to go down and have a look." The two of them walked along the cliff for a while, found a relatively flat slope and came to the beach, listening to the calm waves washing away.
With the land at his feet, it was better to relax rather than prepare anxiously. Hodel asked, "Is this a sniper battle?" "Yes, normally we have to prepare traps." Jiang Yan was helpless,
"But I'm afraid the trap will have no effect on her. It's better to forget about preparation."
Hodel nodded slightly in agreement. Suddenly he squatted down as if he had discovered something, dug in the sand for a while, and found a piece of rusty metal scrap. "What are you doing?" "Scavenging?"
Hodel looked at the scraps and curled his lips, "It's not bad. If it were ten years ago, I could have replaced a bottle of soda." Hodel looked at the rusty metal and tried to find some readable words, but he failed.
.
"My dad is also a mercenary. When I started to remember, he and I spent less time together and more time apart. Although he seemed to be quite knowledgeable, he only taught me some basic things or things I didn't learn in school."
"...Really?" Jiang Yan didn't know what to say, "Sounds like a good father."
Hodel seemed to be caught up in the memories of his past, "Yeah, hey, he was obviously a mercenary and still had to send me to school. At that time, I was almost old enough to go to school, and he took me to various places to use his
We make money in every way we can think of. Sometimes we will spend a day at the beach, and then take large and small bags of waste to the recycling yard in exchange for a bunch of scattered currency. Did you know that the local beach at my home has been cleaned up by the two of us?
Zhouli also awarded an environmental sanitation award to the town, but I didn’t see it, so I’m afraid it will be placed at the mayor’s house.”
"Finally, when the school day was about to start, he took me to apply for admission. But the school did not accept Sakaz students. After he returned, he sat at the dining table and drank all night. The next day he took me and a bag to the school.
Principal's office."
"Bag? What's in it?"
"There was a pile of organized Colombian currency, one dollar or five dollars, with a face value not exceeding fifty dollars, and a polished and oiled dagger. He showed the bag to the principal, and then I went to school
Already."
Jiang Yan had a complicated expression and couldn't help laughing. "Oh...that's really...I guess the principal didn't make things difficult for you when you were in school, right?"
Hodel grinned and said, "Yes at first, but I don't like going to school at all. No one in the school is willing to be friends with me and a Sakaz. I either can't understand the class, or I'm not happy to listen. I feel like I
My dad was a much better teacher than the teachers in school. So I only played with shadows in school, and later I started skipping classes, and then school. The principal originally turned a blind eye to me, but my dad knew
Then he gave me a good lesson and then took me to the principal's office again."
"What did he say?"
"He told the principal that if I violated school rules, he would be punished. If he didn't punish me, he would go to the principal."
This is really the best. Just as Jiang Shao was thinking this, Hodel continued, "Later, I became honest for a while, and my dad thought that I had become better behaved, so he thought about going out to find a job and left home. I continued
I skipped class, and the principal wanted to teach me a lesson at first, but found that he couldn't find any way, so he just let me go. So the principal and I reached a tacit understanding: when my father was around, I went to school obediently to show off his face, and my father
When he was away, he didn't care if I skipped school to save my face. I tried my best not to turn on red lights during schoolwork so as not to embarrass the three of us, and he didn't arrange home visits to disturb us."
"After I skipped classes, I would go to a place with few people. When I was thirsty, I would go to the beach to see if there was any more scraps to pick up. Then I would exchange two bottles of soda and continue picking up scraps. My dad earns little money, so he spends most of his money on it.
He improved my life and provided for me to go to school. I was too embarrassed to ask him for money to go out and play, so I could only entertain myself."
"When I finished drinking the soda, I thought of a way to write two notes and put them in the bottle and threw them into the sea. Then I watched them float away, thinking about some messy things. For example, one day I would leave that town and take it with me.
I would take my dad to a place called Siesta that I heard on TV and have fun. Or I would think of some truths my dad told me, most of which he said when he took me to scavenge, for example..."
Hodel looked at the piece of scrap metal he had picked up in fascination, as if it had a jade record engraved on it, and said in the tone of a gold digger treating gold sand, and an alchemist treating Madeira:
"It seems like every detail is very fragmented, but when put together, it can often lead to the truth."
"...Your father is a man of great learning." Jiang Yan said this from the bottom of his heart. Hodel nodded in agreement, "Yes, I think so too, although there are many things that you can't tell the difference no matter how hard you look at them."
After that, he threw the waste aside and stood up nonchalantly, "I often wonder who he picked up and couldn't raise, so why should he pick up Sakaz?"
"Wait a minute," Jiang Yan's head seemed to be shut down. He suddenly realized a question: "Are you an orphan?"
"You are the orphan!"
"No, no, no, I said, are you adopted?"
"Yes, by the way, my dad, that is, my adoptive father, is from the Feilin tribe. He is in great health and does not suffer from ore disease."
A Philin tribe without any difficulties adopted a Sakaz child. It’s a touching story, but that’s not the point now. Returning to the topic of race, just now Jiang Shao has been thinking that Hodel’s father is his biological father, so look at it this way
The mad woman Badr may have been caused by an accident, but if Hodel was adopted...
Wait a minute - Jiang Yan realized another problem. He had never seen any racial characteristics on Badr!
"Where's Badr?" Jiang Yan asked excitedly, "What race is Badr? I've never seen her with horns or a tail. Who is she?"
Hodel also had a puzzled expression on his face, "Sakota, I have seen her wings, but I don't think I can usually see them. You said, her and I have only a few syllables in our names, but our faces
Their race doesn’t match up at all, how can they say they are brother and sister?”
Without listening to Hodel's words, Jiang Yan's mind was filled with messy but shocking facts:
Brothers and sisters, light and darkness, angels and demons, and...
"It looks like you are waiting for me?"
The shuddering voice sounded again.
