Fortunately, Jiang Huan hadn’t been perverted enough to send someone to stare at him while he was sitting on the toilet. After Shen Shanwu locked the toilet door, he quickly opened the backpack that he hadn’t dared to leave from beginning to end, took out a piece of black nail from the glass bottle, knocked on it, and put it on the ground.
The mutant, Wolf Dog, silently “grew” out of the floor tiles of the toilet. He opened his black and red eyes and looked around for a while. Before he could speak, Shen Shanwu, who was standing on the toilet cover, covered his mouth.
Shen Shanwu pointed to the door, then shook his head.
“???” Wolf Dog frowned his mouth directly into a knot. He distinguished the movement outside the door for a while, judged the number of people in the hall, then raised his right hand, smiled and made a gesture of wiping his neck, full of wildness, motioning to the group of chickens outside. Do you need Brother Wolf Dog to help you kill them all?
Shen Shanwu shook his head quickly. He took out a pen and paper from his bag and wrote: ‘They are people from the Shanhai team of the coastal base.’
‘‘When I checked the president’s son’s information in school, I met with their captain, and then their captain suddenly decided to adopt me.’
Wolf Dog finally frowned his eyebrows into a bow, and his whole face showed the question: Why?
‘I don’t know why, but do you know who their captain is?’
Shen Shanwu started another line and wrote: ‘Jiang Huan’
Jiang Huan? Wolf Dog repeated silently. He recalled for a while, and finally caught this slightly complicated name in the long river of memory. Wolf Dog took a pen and wrote: ‘Isn’t he the one who followed you a few years ago?’
Shen Shanwu nodded but watched the wolf dog continue to write: ‘Is that an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf?’
“…” The corner of Shen Shanwu’s mouth quickly collapsed. He took back the pen and replied: ‘It’s not that exaggerated.’ The tip of the pen paused for a while, and then deliberately added: ‘Don’t say that about him.’
Wolf Dog shrugged and wrote: ‘Why did he suddenly adopt you?’
He didn’t know what Shen Shanwu meant by shaking his head. Wolf Dog held his chin and diverged his thinking. After a few seconds, he really sorted out the logic: ‘With your current face, no matter how you look at it, it has something to do with the adult you.’
Wolf Dog tangled for a while, and didn’t bother to waste time and wrote a pinyin directly: ‘Jiang Huan insists on adopting a child who looks a lot like you. This is revenge. Let a person who looks like you call his father to relieve the hatred in his chest.’
“???” Shen Shanwu was very dissatisfied: ‘What happened that he had to retaliate against me? Did I treat him badly in the first place?’
He carefully recalled his time with Little Jiang Huan back then, and was surprised to find that there were memories of Jiang Huan being bullied by him with tears in his eyes. However, at that time, Jiang Huan was separated from his relatives, and only had Shen Shanwu to rely on, so he could only choke aggrievedly while looking for comfort from him, the culprit.
It seemed that it may indeed be revenge… Shen Shanwu became frustrated, inexplicably.
‘Then what do you want to do?’ Wolf Dog asked, Shen Shanwu tried to shake off his guilt and replied: ‘I plan to stay and go to the coastal base with him.’
After all, he already ate a shrimp from someone else, and it’s frustrating to just pat his ass and run away.
But it was absolutely impossible to call him “Dad”. This was the bottom line.
Wolf Dog was really envious: ‘Fuck! I also want to enter the coastal base! I also want to play with humans fairly! I’m really, really, really bored!’
Shen Shanwu smiled: ‘First of all, you have to work hard to tear up the “Non-Interference Treaty Between Mutants and Humans”’
These words were murderous and cruel. Wolf Dog grabbed the pen and was about to continue talking about something. Suddenly, Miss Xiaowen’s voice came from outside the door, “Jiang Tong? Are you done yet?”
‘Soft girl!’ Wolf Dog was shamefully greedy. Shen Shanwu raised his head and said loudly, “Right away!” Then he quickly pulled out the pen and paper and wrote: ‘I’ll find a way to send out the birthday gift, do me a favor first! They must be planning to check me. You go to the outer area of the Central Alliance to give me orphan status.’
Wolf Dog was shocked: ‘How to do that?!’
Shen Shanwu: ‘You deal with it!’
After writing, Shen Shanwu ruthlessly retracted the pen and paper, zipped the backpack, and pressed the toilet flush button. Wolf Dog raised his right middle finger angrily, while his body quickly disintegrated from the fingers of his left hand, as if it had been sucked away by something invisible. The flesh and blood were rotated at high speed, leaving only a straight middle finger that symbolized the will of Wolf Dog, standing upright.
When Shen Shanwu opened the toilet door, his middle finger also happened to disappear completely, and there was not even a trace of a strange smell left in the toilet.
Xiaowen, Zhong Yin, and Yao Wuque were guarding the door, and he knew from their posture that if Shen Shanwu didn’t come out, these three would break in immediately.
“Tsk, why don’t you run away?” Yao Wuque’s face was smelly. Shen Shanwu glanced at him, as if he suddenly remembered something, and shouted crisply, “Little brother, did you do your two hundred push-ups? Do you want me to help you count by the side?”
“Pfft…” Yao Wuque didn’t know who was holding back their laughter, so he yelled angrily, “What are you laughing at?!”
“Yao Wuque.”
Jiang Huan’s serious voice made Yao Wuque dare not be presumptuous immediately. He shrank his tail and begged for mercy, “Captain, I just finished my meal…”
“Then take a break for half an hour. You and Zhong Yin will take the initiative to receive the penalty for half an hour.”
“…yes.”
After speaking, Jiang Huan looked at Shen Shanwu again. He beckoned and motioned for him to come over. Shen Shanwu passed without tweaking. The lieutenant on the side took out a tape measure from his pocket and asked Shen Shanwu to put the bag down and measure his measurements.
“Don’t move my bag.” Shen Shanwu warned again. In fact, the more he emphasized it, the more curious everyone was about the contents of the bag. It was just that no one dared to do anything because of the majesty of the captain.
After measuring the size, the lieutenant took the data and went out to buy an outfit for Shen Shanwu. Jiang Huan had a meeting with the leadership of the Central Alliance in the afternoon. After sitting for a while, he put on his mask again and left the villa. Before leaving, he didn’t forget to tell Xiaowen to take care of Jiang Tong, take care of (supervise) him.
Yao Wuque gritted his teeth and said that he would definitely help take care of this bear child. As a result, he turned his head and was pressed by Shen Shanwu to do push-ups. Halfway through, he was disgusted by his unscrupulous teammates. The posture was not standard, and he put three dictionaries on his waist.
“Jiang Tong.” Xiaowen sat down beside Shen Shanwu and said with a smile, “We will set off early tomorrow morning to return to the coastal base. There are not many rooms in the villa. I have a small bed for you in Wuque’s room. Will you sleep there for one night?”
Shen Shanwu was observing the various entrances and exits in the villa and the location of the monitoring. When he heard this, he nodded indifferently, “Okay.”
“Jiang Tong is so good~”
“… you don’t have to deliberately talk to me like coaxing a child.”
“But aren’t you just a child?” Xiaowen smiled deeper, thinking that a little adult like Jiang Tong was quite fun.
In the meantime, Shen Shanwu first wandered up and down the entire villa for a while, then lay down on the swing bed, and spent the whole afternoon peacefully in his sleep. He was relieved, and the people who took care of him were also relieved.
In fact, mutants didn’t need to sleep at all, but because they didn’t have to eat or sleep, their days were too boring and difficult. Shen Shanwu spent a lot more time sleeping than when he was a human.
Boredom was really a big killer. If it weren’t for boredom, Shen Shanwu would never have risked agreeing to be adopted by Jiang Huan.
In the morning, the lieutenant hurried back to the villa with a big bag and a small bag. He invited Jiang Tong to come and try on his clothes. He also did one last test, “I went to the outer area during the day. I want to see what you have at home to pack it and bring it together.”
Shen Shanwu pulled on the zipper of his coat. Even if the hood was changed, it was still a bit big. After putting it on, he could only reveal a small chin. The lieutenant couldn’t see his eyes, but he could see the pale lips with a smile that wasn’t a smile, “I have a home?”
“…” The lieutenant was silent and did not speak, and after a while, he patted Shen Shanwu on the shoulder vigorously, “Now you have it.”
Jiang Tong’s reaction was almost the same as the information he found in the mouths of the group of underage gangsters in the outer area. In the afternoon, he handed over the candid photos. The gangster looked at him and said with a sneer, “Yeah, I know him. He’s not dead yet?”
The lieutenant asked again where this person lived. The gangsters laughed non-stop. Holding back their laughter, one said, “How could he possibly have a family? He probably just takes whatever he can and sleeps wherever he wants.”
Before leaving, the lieutenant noticed half of the cake packaging bag was exposed in the pocket of a little rascal’s pants. This was something that would never appear in the outer area. He pointed to the man, frowned, and asked, “Where did the cake come from?”
The little rascal panicked suddenly, his eyes dodged and retreated, but the leader of the gangsters had been through a lot of battles, and he answered with a cold snort, “Why? How can we live here if we don’t steal or rob? Are you going to catch us? Come on, I’m not afraid of dying!”
“…” Everything was reasonable, and the lieutenant couldn’t pick out the stubble. He remotely reported the information he found to the captain. After a while, the captain replied that he knew, and then there was no more following.
After the lieutenant left, Wolf Dog, who covered his face with a hat, came out from behind the wall and threw the remaining half-bag of egg cakes to the group of little gangsters. He also rewarded two bottles of juice that he wanted to leave for himself to drink. The gangster leader suddenly smiled with joy. They didn’t plan to eat it yet. As many as they came, they all stuffed their brains into their stomachs. There was wine to drink tonight.
Wolf Dog just told them before that it was very likely that someone would take a photo and ask if they knew who was in the picture. Then they will say that they know them. As a result, these little guys showed off their acting skills and played so well. Sure enough, there were talents everywhere at the grassroots level.
After eight o’clock, it was already dark, and Jiang Huan arrived late with a delicate rechargeable lantern. The temperature outside dropped sharply from 35°C during the day to 10°C. The team members hurriedly welcomed him into the room, took the cloak and gloves, and handed him a hot towel to warm their faces and wipe their hands. Xiaowen served the dinner that had been warm, and said, while uncovering the cling film, “This Central Alliance is really… They know that we will leave early tomorrow morning, so they have to take the captain, and you have a meeting so late.”
Jiang Huan didn’t go to the table immediately. He shook off the chill in front of the heater. After waiting for his body temperature to rise, he asked, “How is Jiang Tong?”
“Very good.” Xiaowen said, “He read a book in the afternoon, and then went to bed on the swing. After eating, Wuque washed his feet and went to bed… But he didn’t eat much for dinner. Maybe a child of this age just eats less?”
“…I’m going to see him.” Jiang Huan walked up the steps quickly, “You all rest early.”
“Okay, captain, just put the bowl away after you finish your meal. I’ll get up tomorrow to wash it.”
“Hmm.” Before the voice fell, Jiang Huan had already stepped up to the second floor in three steps. He walked to Wuque’s room, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door directly in.
In the room, Yao Wuque was leaning on the head of the bed and playing Sudoku quietly, but Jiang Huan suddenly came in and startled him, “Captain…”
Jiang Huan put his index finger in front of his lips and made a quiet gesture. Yao Wuqu nodded and said, “He’s asleep.”
The author has something to say:
A long, long time later,
Shen Shanwu leaned into Jiang Huan’s ear and said, with a chuckle, “…Dad.”
Jiang Huan’s breathing became a little heavier.
