Chapter 28 Sober
After hearing Xu Jie's story, Chen Yexi, Yu Sheng, and Lin Qiu's eyes revealed deep sympathy and concern.
Yu Sheng spoke first, saying, "Young lady, what do you plan to do now? If you want to go home, we can escort you back to Qiqihar."
But remember, once you get home, never use the power of the Orphnoch lightly, otherwise you might attract the attention of the Ming Dynasty's special bureau dedicated to dealing with Orphnochs.
When Xu Jie heard the word "home", her face turned ashen, as if she were recalling some unbearable past events.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she shook her head, choking back sobs, indicating that she did not want to return to that former home.
Upon seeing this, Yu Sheng panicked and didn't know what to do.
He quickly turned to look at Chen Yexi, hoping to get some help from him.
Seeing this, Chen Yexi stepped forward, gently patted Xu Jie's shoulder, and tenderly comforted her, "Since you don't want to go home, we won't force you anymore."
You can stay here temporarily, but please note that this is our friend's ranch, not a place to stay permanently. We ourselves don't know how much longer we can stay here.
Xu Jie nodded gratefully, tears streaming down her cheeks, and replied softly, "Thank you very much. I will leave on my own after a while and will not cause you any trouble."
After hearing this, Chen Yexi and the other two exchanged glances. Chen Yexi stayed in the hall with Xu Jie, while the two Yu brothers went to tidy up the room.
……
Meanwhile, in Harbin, a tense and serious meeting was underway inside the Special Affairs Bureau building.
The contents of the meeting shocked everyone present, but they were all seasoned veterans who had weathered countless storms, and they quickly recovered from their shock and began to discuss countermeasures.
After a heated discussion, everyone finally reached a consensus and decided to fully support Hong Tao in conducting more in-depth research on the attack methods and abilities of the King of Orphnoch.
Meanwhile, other departments should also actively cooperate with this work and provide necessary resources and assistance.
Seeing that everyone had come up with a good solution to the matter, Mr. Zheng felt somewhat relieved.
Just as he was about to disconnect the video connection, Hong Tao suddenly spoke up: "Old Zheng, in addition to the successful completion of the Kaixa armor's combat verification, our Harbin Special Operations Bureau also successfully brought back Su Qian, the user of the Kaixa armor."
Right now, the two of them are 'duoing' in the medical pod I brought. What do you think we should do about this?
Upon hearing this news, Old Zheng's eyes lit up, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.
He knew that this meant they had gained another powerful trump card, enabling them to better cope with potential future crises.
Therefore, Mr. Zheng expressed his intention to take good care of this special guest and ensure that he receives the best treatment and protection.
Then Old Zheng said to Hong Tao, "I'll leave this matter to you, Dr. Hong. It would be best if he could join the Special Affairs Bureau. If he doesn't want to join, help him heal his injuries, leave him your contact information, and consider it making friends."
Hong Tao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Old Zheng continued, "Alright, it's decided then. Do you have any objections?"
Seeing that Old Zheng had spoken, everyone shook their heads to indicate that they had no objections, which was exactly the result Hong Tao wanted.
Hong Tao immediately assured him, "Alright, I will do my best to handle this matter."
Old Zheng smiled at Hong Tao, a sly glint in his eyes: "You, that's all the little tricks you have. Since I've made the decision, I'm leaving it to you, so no one else can interfere!" After saying that, he glanced around at everyone and then turned off the video feed.
Seeing this, Hong Tao nodded goodbye to Director Zhong and walked out of the conference room towards the location of the medical ward.
After seeing him off, Director Zhong adjourned the meeting and took Ma Mingzhe back to his office to discuss the arrangements for Harbin.
After walking for about five minutes, Hong Tao arrived at the special vehicle equipped with a medical compartment, which is one of the infrastructure facilities provided to ensure the safety of the Kaixa team.
As Hong Tao opened the car door and got in, a medical support staff member rushed forward upon seeing him.
Hong Tao asked directly, "How are they? When will they wake up?"
"Reporting to Consultant Hong, all their external injuries have been treated. The main issue now is their internal bone contusions, which will take time. However, with our special repair fluid and medical chambers, they will be able to move around freely in another two or three days."
As for when they will wake up, based on the test data, they should wake up today.
As soon as the medical staff finished speaking, Zheng Zhongshan and Su Qian each let out a muffled groan and opened their eyes simultaneously. Upon seeing this, Hong Tao immediately waved for the medical staff to leave, indicating that he wanted to speak with the two of them alone.
After the medical staff left the carriage, Hong Tao first nodded to Zheng Zhongshan, signaling him to calm down, and then turned to look at Su Qian.
Zheng Zhongshan frowned slightly, but still chose to believe Hong Tao and remained silent.
Su Qian looked at Hong Tao with a puzzled expression, a hint of confusion and wariness flashing in his eyes. He quickly looked around, trying to figure out where he was and who these people were.
Hong Tao noticed Su Qian's reaction and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He had thought that Su Qian would have some knowledge of the Special Affairs Bureau, but it was clear that this was not the case.
So he explained directly: "This is the Harbin Special Bureau, an agency of the Ming Dynasty specifically responsible for handling the Orphino incident."
When our personnel arrived at the Qiqihar battlefield, they found you unconscious. Considering your safety, we decided to bring you here for treatment.
Upon hearing this, Su Qian's face showed a look of sudden realization.
He finally realized that he and these people were all officials of the Ming Dynasty.
As Su Qian gradually lowered his guard, his eyes also calmed down. He realized that he was in a safe environment, and that he was currently receiving treatment from the Ming government.
If the other party wanted to harm him, they could have simply left him to fend for himself in Qishi. Why bother going to all the trouble of saving him? This question kept swirling in his mind, and he eventually came to the conclusion that the other party had no malicious intent.
So he decided to put aside his doubts and be honest with the other party.
He then said sincerely, "Ask me anything you want to know, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge."
Seeing that the other party was so cooperative, Hong Tao stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point: "Su Qian, we have already reviewed your background through the information."
However, one thing has always intrigued me: who gave you the Faiz armor? Or more specifically, when, where, and who gave it to you? It would be even better if you could be more specific.
