Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 479

For Song Lan, returning to visit the orphanage was not a big deal, but after learning the information about Lu Xiang's investigation, everything suddenly became confusing.

Before setting off, the two made sufficient psychological preparations.

This afternoon, the sound of the landing of the suspension car broke the tranquility of this old street, and at the same time attracted the attention of some exaggeratedly dressed gangsters with mohawk hair. He glanced at the direction where the car landed, and only relaxed his vigilance after seeing Song Lan getting off the car.

The orphanage is still as it was in Song Lan's memory, and it hasn't changed much over the years. Most of this block is an old residential area, and the residents are mainly retired middle-aged and elderly people. They live a slow-paced life. .

There was a lively sound from the other end of the door, and a group of children were running back and forth in the courtyard, getting involved in the police and robber games.

They held plastic guns and imitated the sound of shooting with their mouths. The lively atmosphere calmed down the nervousness a lot.

Lu Xiang believes that there is an answer hidden behind this door.

People's memories can be forged, but the places where they have lived will leave corresponding marks.

And all the doubts of the two of them were answered as soon as they entered the door - the director of the orphanage who was sitting in the yard basking in the sun saw Song Lan, and greeted him immediately with a smile.

His attire looked no different from that of an ordinary old man, with cheap clothes and pants, and he did not have the aura commensurate with the "Godfather" at all.

The dean is thin and a bit too old.

In 2166, 80 years old is actually not too old. With the breakthrough of biomedical technology, people have overcome medical problems one by one, and created a series of technologies to increase cell activity. In this era, people who can There are many people who live to be over 160 years old.

Of course, the secret to longevity is firmly in the hands of the company and the family.

It is not difficult to see that the dean has not enjoyed the benefits brought about by technological progress.

"Why do you want to visit me, an old man?"

The dean seemed to be in good spirits, he walked up to meet him quickly, stared at Lu Xiang carefully for a long while, then said "OK" several times, his cloudy eyes suddenly filled with light, "Is this your daughter-in-law? "

For a moment, Song Lan actually had the feeling of going home during the Chinese New Year.

He still remembered the first time when his cousin brought his girlfriend home during the Chinese New Year, the old people were just as red-faced as they are now, and they directly regarded her as their future daughter-in-law.

This emotion does not seem to be fake.

However, the issue of identity still needs to be clarified, "It's a girlfriend."

"No, it's the daughter-in-law."

However, Lu Xiang objected. She took Song Lan's arm affectionately and said, "We are seriously considering the issue of marriage, so we would like to pay a special visit to you."

"Great, come in."

Every word of Lu Xiang speaks to the heart of the dean. She never fights unprepared. Before deciding to visit the orphanage, she carefully studied the precautions when visiting relatives, and also focused on the characteristics of the orphanage. Appropriate gifts are prepared.

According to the content of her investigation, this orphanage was established in the name of an individual, and the helpers who came to the orphanage were all old people who had nothing to do after retirement, and the seventeenth district government had never provided financial assistance to them.

In other words, this is not only a matter of no profit, but a "losing business".

Because the notice posted by the orphanage stated that the homeless children will be accepted for free, and the children's daily necessities of life are borne by the orphanage.

Based on the above information, Lu Xiang came to two conclusions.

One is that the dean is a kind person who is extremely rare in 2166; the other is that he tries to use this method to achieve some ulterior secrets.

She decided to trust her instincts, thinking that the former seemed to be more in line with the old man's first impression of them.

So she went back to the levitation car and took out the gifts she had prepared - mainly some holographic toys for the children. Participate in various role-playing games.

When purchasing, the merchant also gave her a 8% discount based on the wholesale price.

When the children got these never-before-seen devices, they surrounded Lu Xiang happily. They had seen Lu Xiang in electronic newspapers and magazines and knew that she was a very remarkable person.

There are also children who want to experience the feeling of riding a suspended vehicle. In the past, they could only stay in the yard and look up at the suspended vehicle passing the sky from time to time. Although they are in the same city, they seem to be separated by two worlds.

Lu Xiang took the child to the gate of the compound, and Song Lan also got the chance to be alone with the principal.

"Among these children, you are the most promising."

The dean took him into the attic.

The moment he stepped over the threshold, he finally discovered something unusual in this orphanage—his psychic sense sensed that the room in the basement was full of ammunition.

Packed in a black box, in addition to the gang's standard firearms, there are also anti-material weapons such as grenades and individual bazookas.

These munitions are enough to arm a large-scale gang.

The dean didn't intend to pretend to him, and took him directly into the elevator after entering the door, all the way into the basement.

He opened the door of the "Arsenal" with his access card, showed Song Lan the equipment in the basement, and sighed, "Look at them, what kind of things do they send every time, what do you say to help me defend myself? How can an old man use these things!"

The dean's attitude is exactly the same as when he wants to give red envelopes to children during the holidays, "It happens that you work in the law enforcement department. If your department needs them, just take them. I have been reading the newspaper recently. It mentioned Now that your recent financial situation is not optimistic, I can help you a little."

It's just that what he stuffed was a warehouse of munitions.

If these equipment fell into the hands of a certain gang, they would wake up from their dreams with laughter.

"no, I'm fine."

Song Lan waved her hands again and again, "The financial problem has been solved, and what they said has some truth. This city is not safe, so it's better to save some things for self-defense."

"You don't want it?" The eyes of the old man who was rejected were a little disappointed, "I checked the information, and these are all good equipment."

The tone is like that of an old man who keeps stuffing you with fruit during the Chinese New Year and advises you to eat more.

Song Lan couldn't help feeling that the way of giving gifts in 2166 was also very different.

He casually made up a new rule, "No need, our current equipment is sufficient, and according to the bureau's regulations, it is inconvenient for us to accept unregistered equipment."

"That's good."

The old man finally gave up on persuasion, but then he pushed the conversation to another classic topic, "By the way, when are you going to get married? I'm still waiting for the wedding wine."
