In December, the autumn wind blows away the summer heat, and the warm winter sun shines down, but there is still a hint of coolness in the air.

East District of Lincheng Base City.

Qiuluo Lake.

Three figures sit close together on the edge of the lake. The figure in the middle holds a fishing rod and casts it beautifully, and the hook falls on the lake in the distance.

Qiuluo Lake is the largest artificial lake in Lincheng Base City, supplying water to almost half of the base city. There are many artificially raised mutant fish species in it.

Mutated fish species are new types of fish species cultivated by fish in the past using the blood of alien beasts. They have delicious meat, low aggression, and a short growth period.

"When I was a child, your grandfather often brought me here to fish. At that time, fishing here did not cost money. Later, too many people came here to fish, so a charging system was adopted. Your grandfather's fishing skills are much worse than mine, and he often comes up empty-handed!" Gu Guoqiang said with a smug smile.

"You've been fishing for an hour, and you haven't caught a single fish!" Gu Bai complained in a low voice.

"What do you know? Dad is planning to catch a big one!" Gu Yue denied.

"That's right! What do you know!" Gu Guoqiang echoed, putting the fishing rod on the stand next to him and continued: "Let me tell you, your grandfather lived to be sixty or seventy years old before he became a squad leader of the city defense army, but I became one at the age of forty! I don't know if Xiaobai can have a cell strength of 20 points when he is forty!" Gu Guoqiang did not forget to criticize Gu Bai while bragging. Gu Bai: "This talent is destined, isn't it your son? Maybe some of my talents are given to Xiaoyue! Look, Xiaoyue is now far beyond your peak!" Gu Bai was stunned for a moment when he said this, and said seriously: "By the way! Dad! So where is our mother? You said she went to other base cities for some things, but I didn't see my mother in the household registration book before?" Gu Guoqiang looked at Gu Yue and found that Gu Yue was also looking at him curiously, "In fact, you two have already seen it!" Gu Bai heard this and said: "Xiaoyue is really not a biological child?" Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice's sons can dig holes! Gu Yue's talent is much better than Gu Guoqiang's, and her face, emmm... obviously has nothing in common with Gu Guoqiang.

Gu Guoqiang shook his head.

"I'm not his biological child?"

Gu Guoqiang shook his head again, which really aroused the curiosity of both of them.

"You two are both adopted by me, and your mother is also fake! I have never married a wife!"

Gu Guoqiang's words made both of them open their mouths wide. Gu Guoqiang continued: "When I was a squad leader in the city defense army, I had 25 soldiers under me, and 6 of them were women."

There is no gender restriction for any position in the city defense army.

"Each of us is the strongest support for each other, so the relationship between us is very good! Later, two couples were born in our team, that is, your biological parents, and these two couples got married later without any surprise!"

"Their wedding was also held on the same day... Even the head of the logistics department of our city defense army came to that wedding, it was so grand!"

"Xiaoyue's father is Zhao Mingwei and her mother is Mu Shengnan. Both of them have good talents. When they joined my team, they were close to the air-breaking level! Xiaobai's father is Tang Fei and her mother is Dong Xinyan. Both of them have average talents. When they joined the team, they were almost the same age as me, but their strength was only more than 40 cells!"

Gu Bai felt that it was natural and said, "No wonder Xiaoyue's talent is so high. So good! "Gu Guoqiang paused for a while and continued: "Less than a year after the wedding, Xiaobai was born, and Xiaoyue was born two years later. When Xiaobai was four years old, a small wave of alien beasts appeared in the Wutong Mountains next to the Lincheng Base City. In that battle, eighteen of my team members died!" Gu Guoqiang's eyes were red when he said this, "Those beasts ate them all, and even the bodies were not found! And I was seriously injured in that battle and spent several months in bed!" "Alas!" "That's right, both of your biological parents died in that battle! Their families are similar to my family. Although their parents were not all official people, they all died in accidents at the hands of alien beasts, so I took you in and transferred your household registration to mine..."

"You know what will happen in the future. I retired not long after the battle and became your full-time nanny in the base city!" Gu Guoqiang wiped his eyes, which were a little blurry. Gu Bai and Gu Yue were slightly touched and kept their heads down without saying anything. Seeing this, Gu Guoqiang smiled and said, "Why don't you two talk? Now that you know you are not my biological children, do you want to change your surnames to avoid extinction?" "Dad! Are the graves of our biological parents in Lincheng Cemetery?" Gu Yue looked up and asked. Gu Guoqiang nodded. "They are our biological parents, but you are our reborn parents!" Gu Yue leaned gently on Gu Guoqiang's shoulder. His thin body was as majestic as a mountain in Gu Yue's eyes. "I guessed wrong. It turns out that neither of us is biological!" Gu Bai obviously didn't care much about whether he was biological or not. After all, the relationship over the years has been indestructible. The past is the past, and what is in front of us is the most important! "Xiaobai! Xiaoyue!" "Yeah!" Gu Bai and Gu Yue responded. "You two should survive as long as you can! No one in the Gu family lives long. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Don't take yourself too seriously. It won't affect the war situation whether we are there or not!" Gu Guoqiang said softly.

"Pfft! You can't let others hear me say this, otherwise it will be considered as negative thinking. If everyone thinks like me, there will be no soldiers guarding the lights of thousands of families!"

"But I didn't back down at that time, even though I knew it was a life-and-death struggle..."

Gu Guoqiang laughed as he spoke.

"Do you remember the song I always sang to you when you were young? That was my childhood. When the song sounded, I always felt that I hadn't finished the homework left by the teacher!"

"Dad! Sing it again for us!" Gu Yue gently pushed Gu Guoqiang.

Gu Guoqiang cleared his throat,

"It's a bit lonely on a sunny day, the toys are left beside, and there's nothing new on TV... "

"I forgot the lyrics hahaha!"

"Xiaobai, take good care of Xiaoyue! Okay, just don't cause trouble for your Xiaoyue!"

...

In the first month of the new year, Gu Guoqiang passed away, leaving in his sleep.

In the cold wind, Gu Bai and Gu Yue stood in front of Gu Guoqiang's grave without words, but their hearts were broken.

According to Gu Guoqiang's request, he was buried next to his former comrades.

And the information about his death does not need to be told to anyone, he wants to go alone quietly.

If someone asks about it later, just say that he has ascended to heaven first and broke through the siege for his comrades first!

Neighbor Lao Wang was the first person to know that Gu Guoqiang had passed away. That day, he stayed in front of the grave with a pot of wine in the cold wind for half a day.

In the second month of the new year, Gu Yue and Gu Bai calmed down and returned to their lives.

"Brother! What are your plans for the future?"

"I want to take the exam for a code-building job!"
