Admiral Alpha's Daughter-in-law
Chapter 53
Lu Zhen didn't quite understand what Xiao Ye meant by this.
But soon he understood.
a week later.
An official media of the Alliance Star Network suddenly broke the news that the cause of the outbreak of the Alliance gene infection came from a 17-year-old boy named Lu Zhen. He was the first human being to detect genetic abnormalities and not be infected with mutations.
Lu Zhen's photo was also released.
The shadow of Lu Zhen appeared in the media of the entire Star Region and on the big screens in every street.
There are not many photos of Lu Zhen, and they are still graduation photos from the Interstellar Military Academy.
Next to the photo is a bunch of data analysis charts that ordinary people can't understand.
For a time, there were different opinions from the outside world.
Lu Zhen couldn't go out at all, especially after it was revealed that he had been raised by the Xiao family, and the reputation and image of the Xiao family among the people had plummeted over the years.
It just so happened that at this stage, there was another outbreak of mutated biological invasion in the main city, which caused a large number of people to be infected.
The confusion, fear, despair, and anger accumulated by the public for so long ago seem to have found a breakthrough.
Lu Zhen became the sinner of the entire alliance in just one day.
The public collectively petitioned, demanding that the Xiao family hand over Lu Zhen.
It was a rainy and cloudy day, the crow-blue sky was full of dark clouds, and the strong wind swirled the scraps of paper and pages in the air, whistling, like the end of the world.
Even so, on both sides of the road outside the gate of Xiao's house, there were still quite a few media hunkered down.
The most exaggerated is the hundreds of people holding protest signs.
Among these people, there are men, women, old and young, with sincere words and bloody words.
The camera of the media focused on an old man among them, and the other party said in tears in the live broadcast: "My son and daughter-in-law both died in this disaster, leaving behind a five-year-old granddaughter to depend on each other. This is just an accident, a reality that cannot be changed, but the situation is different now, what we want is the truth and justice!"
Many people behind the old lady responded.
"Yes, please give me justice!"
"The person must be handed over! Find out the facts."
……
At this time, in the Xiao family, there were actually only Xiao Ye and Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen was not disturbed by the outside world. In order to divert his attention these two days, Ivy specially made a small game for him.It usually takes a month or two for ordinary people to unlock intelligence and clear customs. The day after Lu Zhen got it in his hand, he was already playing to the last minute.
He was half lying on the sofa in his room, resting his head on Simba.
The weather was bad, and Simba was a little listless, lying down and sleeping.
Occasionally, it would be woken up by the sound of Lu Zhen's game clearance, and it would raise its leopard head to look at Lu Zhen, and after seeing that he was playing very attentively, he continued to lie back.
Two rooms away from Lu Zhen's room is the study room, dedicated to Xiao Ye.
In the study room, Xiao Ye was wearing home clothes and sitting on the desk with his arms folded. A video conference was going on on the big screen that nearly covered the entire wall in front of him.
It was Liao Sen who was talking, and he asked Xiao Ye: "The people in front of your door are still there?"
Xiao Ye hummed.
"I guess it won't be withdrawn for a while." Ai Wei continued, "If the show is not done well, I'm really afraid that those people won't even get their wages when they go back. I was watching the live broadcast just now, and I was so angry."
Ivey's camera showed him outside, and he continued: "We caught Yao An before and now we have caught Bai Yu, plus there is less than a year before the re-election day, Zong Yi and Bai Dewen Those old men are like dogs jumping over the wall in a hurry, their purpose is so obvious that they almost shouted around with a trumpet."
The current situation is a dead end.
Their artillery was not aimed at Xiao Tingxian, not Xiao Ye, nor anyone else, but Lu Zhen.
In today's turmoil, any action on their side will be magnified.
What's more, the people here are only fooling the ordinary people who are victims themselves, and none of the short-sighted people outside who keep clamoring for the truth really want the truth.
All they want is results.
An obvious result.
Xiao Ye looked at the screen and asked, "Did Yao An and Bai Yu find anything?"
The person in charge of this area said: "There is something, that is..."
"Speak directly." Xiao Ye said.
……
Two hours later, the heavy rain that had been brewing for a long time finally fell in the main city.The pouring rain was connected like a string of beads, hitting the stone slabs outside the house, and the sound was clear and endless.
There was no one at home, so Lu Zhen went out to find something to eat after playing the game.
Just bumping into Xiao Ye and coming out of the study.
Lu Zhen paused, Xiao Ye's expression was the same as before, but Lu Zhen felt that there was something different about the way he looked at him.For several seconds, he didn't even speak.
Lu Zhen frowned: "What happened again?"
Lu Zhen hated the word again, which meant that innocent people were involved in disputes, some people were injured, some families were broken up, and they were forced to separate.
He didn't care what the outside world said about him at all, he didn't even ask Xiao Ye what to do, and he didn't care about any solution.
Although he didn't like this kind of passivity very much, the only thing he thought was passable was that Xiao Ye hardly went out these two days.
It has been several years, and Lu Zhen hardly remembers being alone at home with Xiao Ye like this.
"No." Xiao Ye said.
He closed the door of the study with his backhand, and his eyes moved down slightly.
When she noticed that Lu Zhen was stepping on the floor with her bare feet, her eyebrows furrowed.
Lu Zhen was very self-conscious and explained: "I'll go downstairs to get food soon."
Xiao Ye remained unmoved, "Go back and put it on before coming out."
Lu Zhen reluctantly turned back under his menacing gaze, and when Xiao Ye came out again pulling on his slippers, Xiao Ye was still waiting for him in the corridor.
Seeing him coming out, Xiao Ye turned around and walked downstairs.
Rolling up the sleeves of his casual shirt, he asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Lu Zhen was confused, seeing his posture: "You do it?"
"Ah."
For a moment, Lu Zhen felt like he was dreaming. He had the impression that Xiao Ye, let alone cooking, was the kind of person who didn't even know where to turn the most basic fire.
For four years, Lu Zhen hadn't seen him get involved with the kitchen.
He followed Xiao Ye's buttocks into the kitchen. There were plenty of ingredients in the locker, and Lu Zhen sat on the desk with a high stool like a curious cat.
There was a lot of red wine on the desk, Lu Zhen slammed his chin on the desk, one eye was blocked by the wine bottle, and the eyeball followed Xiao Ye all the time.
Watching him choose the ingredients in a decent way, and looking at the instructions behind the dosage.
Like Xiao Ye, Lu Zhen's cooking is blind.
So when I saw that he looked like that, I began to doubt: "Have you learned it?"
"No."
"What is that you have?"
"Salt."
"Why is edible salt packaged in such a beautiful jar, like..."
Lu Zhen babbled a little too much.
It wasn't until Xiao Ye opened a carton of milk in the locker, inserted a straw into Lu Zhen's mouth, that he finally calmed down.
Lu Zhen gritted the end of the straw, went to look at Xiao Ye, and felt that he was tall and crowded in this not-so-big kitchen, and he seemed to have a completely different temperament from usual.
After more than half an hour, the facts proved that although Xiao Ye's chopping action was as clean as killing people, he was really not talented in cooking.
Although following Lu Zhen's habit of eating vegetarian, the finished product looks good, but the taste is mediocre.
It's the kind that won't kill you.
But Lu Zhen didn't complain, and ate quietly.
Xiao Ye barely moved, he stopped eating after tasting a little, and leaned back against the chair to watch Lu Zhen eat with his head down.
When Lu Zhen was halfway through eating, he found Xiao Ye smoking.
Lu Zhen didn't like the smell of cigarettes very much, Xiao Ye didn't smoke much, even less in front of Lu Zhen.At this time, his face was obscured by the hazy smoke, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
Lu Zhen felt it was strange, and Xiao Ye had already noticed that feeling when he came out of the study.
Even more so now.
Lu Zhen stopped and put the chopsticks on the table.
Xiao Ye put out his cigarette and asked him: "Have you finished eating?"
"Not at first." Lu Zhen said: "But your series of actions made me feel like you poisoned me in the meal, and I couldn't eat it anymore."
Xiao Ye threw the remaining half of the cigarette into the ashtray, raised his eyes and glanced at him and said, "Have you been poisoned to death?"
Lu Zhen touched her stomach that was a little stuffed, and said honestly, "No."
There was another half minute of silence in the air, mainly because Xiao Ye remained silent.
It was obviously just past noon, but because of the weather, the room looked like it was approaching evening.
Xiao Ye looked at Lu Zhen, and asked again: "Eighteen, right?"
This is still the problem, Lu Zhen was keenly aware of certain signals, and said, "No, there are still two months."
"That's about the same." Xiao Ye said next, "Let's go, get out of here."
when this sentence is spoken.
Xiao Ye doesn't want him anymore.
Lu Zhen knows.
His premonition was not wrong. It was not right to bring him back four years ago and raise him, it was still two months away.
But he said it was almost there.
Lu Zhen didn't try to understand a lot of things, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know.
Lu Zhen was very clear about his own situation, the outside world asked Xiao Ye to hand him over, but Xiao Ye didn't do that, he just didn't want him anymore.
Lu Zhen knew what kind of person Xiao Ye was.
He didn't even intend to ask the reason, and he had a feeling that Xiao Ye's decision was definitely not a temporary one.
He was just a little sad, his eyes were red, but he didn't cry.
Lu Zhen can't cry, he couldn't even laugh before.
It was because Lu Zhen was able to stay by Xiao Ye's side and met people like "Infernal Affairs" Ribera later.
He likes Xiao Ye, and he thinks that Xiao Ye should also like him, but he never said it.
Lu Zhen didn't know how Xiao Ye was feeling.
He asked him to leave, and Lu Zhen felt that he should really leave.
Lu Zhen finally stood up and said, "The food you cook is terrible."
Xiao Ye hummed.
At [-]:[-] that afternoon, Lu Zhen went out from the intersection of the building behind Xiao's house.
He didn't bring anything, the heavy rain soaked his whole body every minute, strands of hair stuck to his face, making Lu Zhen's face look a little pale.
He walked less than ten meters when a figure rushed out from the door.
It's Simba.
Lu Zhen knelt down, stroked Simba's wet hair, held his head and asked, "Why did you come out?"
Simba licked his face lightly.
"He asked you to come?" Lu Zhen asked.
Simba rubbed him affectionately, Lu Zhen, "Do you want to come with me?"
Lu Zhen quickly stood up from the ground, with Simba sticking to his legs, he turned his head and glanced at the window on the second floor of the building behind him, it was empty, there was nothing but curtains.
"Dog man." Lu Zhen cursed.
After cursing, he patted Simba on the head and said, "Let's go."
The sky was dark.
One person and one leopard walked farther and farther along the path by the back door in the heavy rain.
Never looked back.
But soon he understood.
a week later.
