Since there was only one day left before leaving for the main city, Lu Xin made good preparations.
There are not many things to pack.
He only has two sets of clothes to change, both of which are very clean but can be worn for a long time.
After putting away his toiletries—a toothbrush, a half-used tube of toothpaste, a piece of soap, and a towel—his bag only became slightly bulging. That’s it, just put it together and you can pick it up and go at any time.
As for a set of combat uniforms, combat boots, etc. issued by the Special Clearance Department, there is a special flat box for storage.
There is no need to drive the motorcycle over. Lu Xin plans to send it to the security hall and find someone to watch.
After doing this, the remaining things are naturally relatively simple. The first is to ask for leave from the company.
I asked Han Bing in advance and she said that this meeting would need to be held for three days, but to be safe, she should prepare for seven days.
Lu Xin understood what she meant by being safe, and it was very likely that the second stage of her affairs would be completed together.
So, I found Director Liu and reported to him.
...Director Liu’s surprised reaction was something Lu Xin really didn’t expect.
... Not only did he approve his leave, he even specified that it was a paid leave!
…The director is really nice.
The second thing is to go to the Red Moon Orphanage.
I haven’t seen Teacher Xiaolu since I came back from the last trip out of the city.
This time I am going to the main city to stay for about a week. Of course, I have to tell Teacher Xiaolu in case there is an emergency and I can’t be found.
Riding his motorcycle to the orphanage near the guard hall, Lu Xin slowly went upstairs.
At the corner of the third floor, I met the security guard who was sitting on a small mazaar reading a newspaper.
He looked up from behind the newspaper, glanced at Lu Xin, and nodded. He continued reading the newspaper as if he hadn't seen him, but subconsciously turned his body slightly inward. Lu Xin saw , there is now a small potted plant placed on the wall behind him.
There is a lonely little flower inside, blooming pitifully.
"Huh?"
As Lu Xin went upstairs, two children who were playing with glass balls on the landing of the stairs raised their heads. After seeing Lu Xin, their little faces changed. He immediately showed a wicked smile, and before Lu Xin could say anything, they were already running upstairs with a "swish" sound.
While running, he shouted "My boyfriend is here" "My boyfriend is here"...
"Ah this..."
Lu Xin was filled with excitement all of a sudden With a red face, he saw that they had dropped a glass ball at his feet, so he picked it up and put it in his pocket.
I am not going to give it back to them.
Among a group of small faces that looked like they were visiting, Lu Xin walked into Teacher Xiaolu’s office.
This is his first time coming to this place, but the eyes of those little guysGod showed him the way directly.
Teacher Xiaolu was eating with a lunch box. When he saw Lu Xin come in, he put down the lunch box. Lu Xin took a sneak peek. Inside the lunch box was stewed winter melon and tofu, mixed with a little rice, and mixed with the outside. The little ones had the same leftovers in their bowls.
However, the little guys can still see diced meat in their bowls, but Teacher Xiaolu’s lunch box only contains winter melon and tofu.
......
......
"Why are you here today? Don't you have to go to work?"
Teacher Xiaolu smiled and turned the wheelchair , then took the book and closed the lunch box.
"I'm going on a business trip tomorrow, so I asked for leave this afternoon."
Lu Xin explained with a smile and took a look at the small office.
“Going on a business trip again?”
Teacher Xiaolu was slightly surprised: “Where are you going?”
“Actually, it’s not a business trip, it’s just a trip to the main city. , about a week."
Lu Xin smiled and explained: "The main city is very safe."
"The main city..."
I thought. Teacher Xiaolu would be relieved, but she didn't expect that after listening to Lu Xin's words, she didn't know what she thought of. There was no happy expression on her face, and she didn't ask Lu Xin why she suddenly had the opportunity to enter the main city, but some Silent.
"There are a lot of things in the main city, is there anything you want to take with you?"
Lu Xin had no choice but to break the silence and asked with a smile.
Teacher Xiaolu shook his head slightly and said, "No... just come back soon."
Lu Xin nodded, and then didn't know what to say. .
Usually he talks less in front of Teacher Xiaolu, but Teacher Xiaolu talks more.
But this time, Teacher Xiaolu seemed to have something on his mind and spoke less, so the atmosphere naturally became more silent.
"Come out with me. I'll discuss something with you."
Lu Xin thought for a moment and suddenly said to Teacher Xiaolu.
Teacher Xiaolu raised his head and glanced at Lu Xin, then a smile appeared on his face and he nodded: "Okay."
So Lu Xin thought about it and then pushed Following Teacher Xiaolu to the corridor, he looked at the long steps. After thinking for a while, he leaned down and hugged Teacher Xiaolu. There were shouts of "hug" and "hug" behind him. , Lu Xin blushed and still hugged her very steadily, while Teacher Xiaolu blushed and glared back at Lu Xin's shoulder.
"Wow..."
The hooting sounds suddenly dispersed, much less.
"Uncle Zhang, if I come back late, I will watch them do self-study, copy "Diary of a Madman" three times, and I will come back to check."
When passing by the third floor, Teacher Xiaolu said to the security guard.
"Haha, okay, no need to come back in a hurry."
The security uncle agreed with a smile.He made a sound, folded the newspaper, and then went upstairs to help her get the wheelchair.
Lu Xin went downstairs first and carefully placed Teacher Xiaolu on the back seat of his motorcycle. At this time, the security uncle also moved Teacher Xiaolu’s wheelchair, and Lu Xin folded it carefully. He got up and hung on the other side of his motorcycle.
In this place, there was originally a metal box hanging, which seemed to be some kind of mechanical dog or something.
If you don’t need it for the time being, take it off first and let the security uncle look after it for you.
......
......
Slowly starting the car, Lu Xin took Teacher Xiaolu into the streets of Qinggang City.
Although Lu Xin was driving very slowly, Teacher Xiaolu was still very nervous and kept holding the corners of his clothes tightly.
They didn’t talk along the way, and went straight to the east of the satellite city, towards Qingyan Mountain.
After arriving here, Lu Xin found a place to park the car, opened the wheelchair, and then sat down with Teacher Xiaolu in his arms.
Slowly pushing the wheelchair, they walked on the path here.
"Look, how big is the house here?"
As he walked, he said with a smile: "I have gone into one of them. There are many rooms in it, and the living room is spacious. It can be It can be used as a classroom, and there is a garden and a pool outside. You can dig up the garden, plant some vegetables, raise a few chickens, etc..."
"And it is relatively far from the west of the city, and there are few people around. It's...quieter."
What he actually wanted to say is that if a large-scale mental pollution incident occurs in a place with fewer people, it will be safer. However, considering the current mental pollution incident, Very few people knew about it, and he was afraid of scaring Teacher Xiaolu, so he didn't say it directly.
"Oh, you are different now than before. Have you started thinking about a house in the villa area?"
Teacher Xiaolu was in a much better mood and turned around from the wheelchair. , looked at Lu Xin with a smile.
"During this period, I have worked very seriously and saved a little money..."
Lu Xin smiled sheepishly and said, "And I have asked People have asked, and the price of the houses here seems to be five to five to six hundred thousand. Although it is a bit expensive, I think it will be better if our orphanage is built here."
"Bang..."
Teacher Xiaolu heard the hesitation in his words and said: "Five or six hundred thousand? Do you think I am a fool? The house here..."
< p>She thought about it seriously and said seriously: "At least one million!""Yes, yes, almost..."
Lu Xin nodded with a smile and said: "When I buy him, you can move here!"
Teacher Xiaolu didn't answer, and was silent for a while before asking: "Will you live here too then?"
Lu Xin didn't know how to answer this question, so he just pushed her to walk slowly.
Teacher Xiaolu seemed to have thought of something.After a while, he whispered: "Why are you so kind to them now?"
Lu Xin thought slowly and said: "Didn't the dean often tell us at that time? ”
“Although we are young, we represent hope”
“As long as we have expectations for civilization in our hearts, we can definitely return to what he said. , a life where you can eat meat for every meal, watch movies, listen to songs, and play games as much as you want, and you don’t have to do so much homework..."
"Now, those children are the same. "Okay."
He said slowly: "We should be as good to them as the dean was to us at that time."
Old Xiaolu listened to Lu Xin for a long time. No answer.
Lu Xin suddenly noticed that her shoulders were trembling slightly. She was startled and turned to her. She saw that her face was filled with tears from unknown time. , hurriedly squatted down and said nervously: "What's wrong with you?"
Teacher Xiaolu raised his sleeves, wiped his tears, looked up into Lu Xin's eyes: "Come here."
p>Lu Xin hurriedly got closer to her.
Teacher Xiaolu looked at him seriously, with red eyes and a serious expression: "Tell me, what are you going to the main city for?"
"This... is to drive. It's just a meeting."
Lu Xin hurriedly explained: "There's really nothing else. It's very safe. I'll be back in a week."
Teacher Xiaolu was silent for a while before saying. : "Is it true?"
Lu Xin thought about the "second stage" and was slightly silent, but did not tell her and nodded.
"Actually, I knew this would happen a long time ago."
Teacher Xiaolu didn't say whether he believed it or not. After a while, he said softly: "Before, there was a person like you My colleague came over and found me. She was very nice. Originally, I was very worried about what you were doing, but that person made me feel that maybe they were..."
"They are different! "
"So, I don't want to stop you, but..."
She suddenly raised her head and held Lu Xin's hand tightly: "You must promise me one thing ."
Looking at her very serious and even nervous expression, Lu Xin nodded quickly.
“Don’t put all the pressure on yourself.”
She said softly: “Back in kindergarten, I was the one who helped you fight with bricks, do you remember? "
Hearing this, Lu Xin couldn't help but smile.
He also vaguely remembered that Teacher Xiaolu was very tough when he was a child. Most children who grew up in the disaster were like this.
"Besides, you never owe anyone anything, you know?"
Teacher Xiaolu said, slowly lowering his voice.
It can be heard that her voice seems slightly nervous, but she speaks very seriously and her eyes are clear.He looked firmly at Lu Xin's face and said, "You don't owe anyone, including me. I have carefully recorded the money you have sent me over the past few years..."
She was a little firm and repeated: "You didn't do anything wrong."
"..."
Maybe it was Teacher Xiaolu's eyes that were too firm, which made Lu Xin appear. Slightly dizzy.
He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the gray sky. At this time, there was already the shadow of the red moon in the southeast sky.
"I don't know what will happen to you in the future, where you will go..."
The palm of my hand was held by a soft and warm little hand, and Teacher Xiaolu's voice became soft. got up.
She said in Lu Xin’s ear: “But you will always, always remember how to come back, okay?”
“You can’t forget us, okay? ?"
"..."
Lu Xin felt even more dizzy.
Actually, he didn’t quite understand why Teacher Xiaolu told him this.
But just when the dizzy feeling was about to amplify, he suddenly felt a figure coming up to him, touching him, and his cheek was touched by something soft and slightly moist. , and then the man quickly retracted as if he was running away.
"Plop"
Lu Xin's heart beat violently, and she turned her head to look at Teacher Xiaolu in surprise, her face gradually turning red.
Teacher Xiaolu also blushed, but still pretended to be nonchalant: "This is a kiss for the children, don't think about it."
"I..."< /p>
Lu Xin opened her mouth and wanted to say a lot, but what came out of her mouth was: "Can I kiss you back?"
Teacher Xiaolu's face turned red all of a sudden, and she tried to keep a straight face. Face: "No."
"..."
Lu Xin nodded regretfully: "Okay!"
