Chapter 289 Lin Rou's Worry

Several people walked through the long corridor and took a full-metal elevator. However, this elevator was different from ordinary elevators. Instead of going up and down vertically, it turned a few corners laterally and dropped down more than ten floors.

bite--

A doorbell rings.

The elevator door opens.

Jiuci led a few people along another section of the corridor.

Until the end, Jiu Ci stretched out his face.

"Iris scanning, identity confirmed, please come in!"

The mechanical sound sounded.

The half-meter-thick metal gate in front of him slowly opened to both sides. Next, Jiu Ci opened six more gates in succession, until he reached the seventh one.

"Identity confirmation, please enter password."

Jiu Ci immediately reached out and typed out a row of numbers.

"The password is correct, please come in."

The mechanical sound fell and the door slowly opened.

This time is different from before. Inside the gate is a reception room, which is very spacious and bright. The floor is covered with red carpets, and the unique classical solid wood furniture of the Great Zhou Dynasty is placed on it. Portraits of famous people are hung on the walls, and the ceiling is flashing with the Great Zhou Dynasty. flag.

"Everyone, please have some tea first. The commander-in-chief will be here soon." Jiuci raised his hand to say "please", then opened a door in the corner and walked in.

Everyone in Shuguang sat down casually at Jiang Cheng's signal.

"I have to say, this decoration is really grand!" Wang Qiang squatted down on a chair and sighed.

"It's not bad." Luo Fan sat on a chair with a cold face, picked up a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp to hide his inner excitement.

Liu Xinru and Zhang Ya circled the reception room, pointing to one place and nodding from time to time.

Only Lin Rou was sitting on the chair with a complicated mood, her hands intertwined and squeezing each other, looking a little bored.

Jiang Cheng was very keenly aware of Lin Rou's change, or he had felt it since he was in the corridor. However, because Jiu Ci was present at the time, it was inconvenient to ask. Now Jiu Ci left and walked up to take pictures. He patted Lin Rou on the shoulder and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about?"

"ah!"

Feeling the movement on her shoulder, Lin Rou was slightly startled. When she saw that it was Jiang Cheng, she relaxed again and said with some distress: "You also know that when I come this time, in addition to following you to support the Chudu base, I also One purpose is to see my brother Lin Ye, but I’m a little worried now that I haven’t seen anyone.”

"That's it..."

Jiang Cheng thought for a while, then smiled and said, "After we finish talking about things later, I'll ask you a question."

"Yeah." Lin Rou nodded with a complicated mood.

Looking at it, Jiang Cheng shook his head and laughed.

But, right now.

An old voice came from not far away, the same as the voice on the screen before.

"I've kept you waiting for a long time."

Jiang Cheng looked up.

He is an old man with white beard and hair. Although his face is covered with the wind and frost of the years, he looks very strong and brave. He was obviously a handsome guy when he was young. Jiu Ci dared to be around the old man.

When Jiang Cheng looked over, Jiuci quickly raised his hand and introduced: "Commander-in-Chief, this is Jiang Cheng, the leader of Shuguang Base in Linxian City."

After listening to the introduction, the old man looked Jiang Cheng up and down, especially when he looked into his eyes. His eyes lit up, he laughed and extended his hand, "Sure enough, a hero comes from a young man. He is worthy of being a good son of our Da Chu Province."

"The commander-in-chief commends you."

Jiang Cheng smiled and reached out to hold it.

"Well, this is an informal occasion, so there is no need to call me Commander-in-Chief. My surname is Xiang, and I am your elder by seniority. Just call me Mr. Xiang!" Mr. Xiang said with a smile.

"Lao Xiang said so, there is nothing wrong with this kid." Jiang Cheng responded with a smile.

"Okay, okay!"

Seeing that Jiang Cheng was neither humble nor arrogant, Mr. Xiang loved him even more. He held Jiang Cheng's hand and said, "Since you guys call me Mr. Xiang, why don't you introduce these friends of yours to me?"

"certainly."

Jiang Cheng smiled and nodded.

He did not feel that kind of oppression towards the old man who was in charge of Chudu's military power. Instead, he felt a faint sense of intimacy.

Or maybe because he has been a man for two generations, he has long been indifferent to identity, status, etc.

He signaled to everyone in Shuguang's eyes.

Several women, as well as Luo Fan and Wang Qiang, quickly stepped forward and stood in a row.

The first is Liu Xinru.

To be honest, this was the first time she saw this old man who only existed in the news, and she was a little nervous for a moment.

But in order not to lose face to Shuguang, he suppressed his trembling and said: "Hello, I am the doctor at Shuguang Base, Liu Xinru."

"Oh? Miss Liu is a doctor?"

Mr. Xiang was slightly surprised.

"Well, Xinru's ability is healing, so I arranged for her to be responsible for the base's medical treatment." Jiang Cheng explained.

"The healing ability! Not bad!" Mr. Xiang couldn't help but nodded, and then said: "There are still a few injured team members in my base. I wonder if I can trouble Dr. Liu to come and take a look?"

"This..." Liu Xinru looked at Jiang Cheng in embarrassment.

Jiang Cheng nodded slightly in agreement.

Liu Xinru just nodded and said: "Of course."

"Okay, then I'll thank Miss Liu in advance."

Next, Mr. Xiang looked at Zhang Ya.

Zhang Ya was not as restrained as Liu Xinru. She stretched out her hand dignifiedly and said: "Hello, I am the chef at Shuguang Base, Zhang Ya."

"Yes." Mr. Xiang nodded and shook his hand, secretly surprised at how easily Zhang Ya faced him.

You know, as a superior, most ordinary people would be so nervous that they would be speechless when they see him, but Zhang Ya was relaxed and at ease, without the slightest bit of nervousness. If it weren't for her excellent family background and long-term cultural influence, she would definitely not have such a good way of dealing with people.

He couldn't help but look up to Zhang Ya.

Next, Xiang Lao looked at Luo Fan again.

Luo Fan just said lightly: "Shuguang, Luo Fan."

Xiang Lao smiled and nodded in response.

Finally, he looked at Lin Rou.

Lin Rou was a sheriff before. After seeing Mr. Xiang, she was habitually nervous and stuttered: "I am the captain of the guard of the Shuguang Base, Lin Rou."

"Lin Rou?" Mr. Xiang smiled and said: "Speaking of which, there is also a soldier named Lin in my base, named Lin Ye, and you are from the same family."

"Yes, my brother is called Lin Ye." Hearing the two words Lin Ye, Lin Rou became excited, and then explained: "And he joined the army early and is currently serving in the Chudu Military Region."

"Lin Ye is your brother? This is a bit troublesome."

Mr. Xiang frowned, and Jiu Ci beside him also had a complicated expression.

Jiang Cheng also saw the clues.

Lin Rou looked at Mr. Xiang's expression, and the ominous feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger. He hurriedly asked: "Mr. Xiang, is there something wrong with my brother?"

"This..."

Mr. Xiang hesitated and didn't know whether to say it.

Jiu Ci said immediately: "It's like this, Miss Lin. Captain Lin Ye's current situation is a bit complicated. We will tell you in detail later."

"I...Okay." Since the other party said so, Lin Rou could only nod helplessly.

Jiang Cheng, looking at Lin Rou's distressed look, thought about it and said: "Mr. Xiang, I think it is necessary to make it clear about the matter of Captain Lin Rou's brother in my base. Of course, if there are any adverse consequences, we will voluntarily bear them."

Listening to Jiang Cheng speaking for her, Lin Rou immediately looked at Jiang Cheng gratefully, and Jiang Cheng also cast a reassuring look at Lin Rou, and then looked straight at Mr. Xiang.

Facing Jiang Cheng's gaze.

Jiu Ci said immediately: "Chief Jiang Cheng, regarding Captain Lin Ye's matter, I think we can..."

Before Jiu Ci finished speaking, Mr. Xiang interrupted with a wave of his hand, and then sighed and said: "Alas - you don't have to bear anything, but I'm afraid that you can't accept the result."
