Chapter 79 Conversation
"How could it be? It's just for work. Look, I also need to send something to the doctor."
Beichen turned around, looked into Nan Xi's eyes and replied sincerely, while shaking the document bag in his hand towards Nan Xi.
"...No, let me follow, or I won't be able to find you next time."
Nan Xi shook her head and refused to let go of Bei Chen's hand on his clothes.
"Alright, alright."
Beichen had no choice but to let Nan Xi follow him.
After walking out of the training ground, Beichen's steps subconsciously became faster. Remembering that there was a little follower behind him, Beichen slowed down his pace. He waited until Nan Xi came to his side before he returned to normal speed.
"You said how old you are, and you still like to follow me."
As Bei Chen walked, he teased Nan Xi beside him.
"Ah? I...I don't like following you, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time...and I'm not an adult yet. As my guardian, shouldn't you take good care of me?"
Nan Xi first hesitantly rejected the fact that she was a follower, and then confidently started to accuse Beichen.
Bei Chen then thought about it and said, "Hey, Nan Xi seems to be still underage, more than a year away. What she said does seem to make sense."
No, how could he be tricked by her? Beichen also replied confidently: "When did I become your guardian? I never said that you rely on my family to eat every day without paying me, and you eat so much." Where did the fan go?"
Beichen gestured with one hand on top of his head and the other on his chest.
Nan Xi naturally understood what Bei Chen meant, and her face suddenly turned red.
"Pervert! Pervert, pervert, pervert!"
Nan Xi jumped on Beichen's body and hit Beichen's chest hard with her fist.
"Hey, it's quite comfortable, but the strength is a bit weak. I suggest you use more strength and help me hammer this place."
Nan Xi stopped her hands immediately, put her hands on her hips and turned away.
"Humph!"
Beichen ignored Nan Xi who was pretending to be angry and quietly moved forward.
Nan Xi waited for a long time but failed to receive any comfort from Beichen. When she looked back, Beichen's figure had almost disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
"Hey, hey, brother, wait for me!"
Beichen stopped and waited for Nan Xi to catch up behind him before he moved his legs again.
"By the way, did you encounter anything happy during this time on Rhodes Island? It doesn't matter if you are unhappy, just tell me to make me happy."
Beichen looked at Nan Xi beside him and asked.
Nan Xi rolled her eyes, then put her hands on her hips and said, "Huh, you can hear this kind of thing if you want to, but...it's okay to tell you."
The two of them slowed down at the same time, Nan Xi was organizing her words, and Beichen was waiting for Nan Xi to speak.
"Well, let me start from the beginning. Do you remember the time when we first met the Rhode Island team?"
Beichen nodded and said, "Then I must remember, after all, I almost sent it on that day."
Nan Xi glared and said, "You are not allowed to say such things! Did you know that when you were brought back to Rhode Island that day, you were sent directly to the emergency room of the medical department?"
"I waited outside for a long, long time. If Amiya hadn't grabbed me, I might have rushed into the operating room."
As she spoke, Nan Xi's voice gradually took on a crying tone.
"It wasn't until a doctor came out and told me that you were out of danger that I saw you in a coma."
"I waited for a long time, but I didn't even wait for you to wake up. Until a doctor in green clothes... I think her name was Kelsey, she took me away and asked other doctors to do it on me. examine."
Beichen touched Nan Xi's head and comforted her, "How could something happen to me? I promised you that I would definitely come back."
"Really?"
Nan Xi wiped her eyes, raised her head and looked into Beichen's eyes, and asked.
"Really, I promise you." Beichen looked into Nan Xi's eyes and replied seriously.
Beichen suddenly remembered another question, and he continued to ask: "Speaking of which, why did you even think of applying to join Rhode Island, and also to apply to become a combat operator?"
"Uh, well, didn't you say before that I have some talent in Origin Stone skills, so I went to test it, and I also took other tests, and the results were pretty good, and then I Submitted my resume, hehe."
Nan Xi scratched her head and said sheepishly.
“Why is Rhode Island recruiting child labor again???”
Hiss, it seems that the age of sixteen is not considered child labor, which is reasonable, and there is no labor law in this world, at least Bei Chen hasn't seen it yet.
"Well, Dr. Kelsey also agreed." Nan Xi replied.
Ha, Kelsey, why is it you again? You have committed a heinous crime, Kelsey.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. How did you meet Lin Dong and the others?"
Beichen was still very curious about this, because in the original plot, Zao Lu did not apply to go to the front line so early, and should still be helping in the logistics department now.
As a result, a group of cubs have now directly formed a new reserve team. Is this reasonable? It's just a pity that the team didn't get to see Wormwood.
"You mean Sonia and the others? Hehe, it's actually a coincidence. After a few days of training, we were assigned to the same reserve team. They seemed to have just arrived in Rhode Island at that time, and they became familiar with each other later. At least , now we are very good friends."
Uh, is it really such a coincidence? Did I do something to cause the world line to change?
It seems that I have really done a lot...
Nan Xi thought for a while and continued: "There seems to be nothing particularly interesting or unhappy. Life on Rhode Island is really peaceful."
"Indeed." Beichen commented: "At least we don't have to change the bridge openings frequently."
"Indeed, I feel happy every day in Rhode Island. I have met so many people, whether they are infected or non-infected, they are all very friendly to me. Anyway, I like it here very much."
"As long as you like it, but on the day you go to the front line, you must pay attention to protecting yourself. After all, I will not be by your side every time."
"You have the nerve to say that." Nan Xi pouted and said dissatisfied.
"Every time before you go on a mission, you never tell me that we have met twice on Rhode Island. This is the second time. Each time, you don't know where you went or what you are." When are you coming back."
"I don't even know if you will be in danger or if you will be taken to Rhode Island with wounds all over your body like last time."
Beichen just smiled and replied: "You don't have to worry about this. As long as I don't deliberately seek death, there aren't many things that can threaten me now, at least for now..."
Beichen suddenly thought of the observer above the starry sky, and he lowered his voice in the second half of the sentence.
Their, perhaps their, greatest threat comes from outside the world.
However, Beichen would not be too obsessed with these things. After all, if it really came, no one could stop it, so it was better to pay more attention to the matter in front of him.
"By the way, after saying so much, it's time for you to tell me about yourself. I only know that you participated in the operation about Chernobog, but I asked many people and they all said that they didn't see it in the team. Only a few people say they have an impression of you, but they don’t know what your specific mission is."
"So what mission did you participate in?"
Nan Xi felt a little confused, why she hadn't gotten any precise information after asking for so long.
"Well, you really can't ask for information about me when you ask like this, because every time I accept the task directly from Kelsey or the doctor and Amiya, and there are basically only a few people in every operation I participate in."
"Ah, so that's it? Accepting the mission directly from Amiya and the doctor, doesn't that mean you are very strong?"
Nan Xi suddenly realized, and then asked the next question.
"What? So you always thought your brother was weak?"
Beichen felt very sad and looked like he was greatly shocked.
"When I was in Chernobog, every time I encountered danger, you would take me to run away and change the bridge. I never saw you take action. When I went to Rhode Island, I lay in the medical department for a day. Every time You ran away without a trace and I don’t know what mission you were involved in. I feel really weak.”
Nan Xi told the truth and looked at Beichen with sincere eyes.
"Well, that seems to be the case, but it's different now. I can make a few moves with anyone I meet."
"Of course, it's hard to say whether I fell to the ground or he fell to the ground after the gesture."
"So why don't you tell me what mission you participated in?"
Nan Xi continued to ask.
After touching Nan Xi's head, Bei Chen continued to walk forward and said, "We will be at the doctor's office soon. We still have a long time. I will explain every task to you."
