Relying on one's own hair

After getting on the off-road vehicle, Qiao Ran felt a little uncertain as he watched Van Lundin drive without saying a word.

He shouldn't have agreed to Andrew at the beginning of this absurd dinner tonight, then the bad things that happened later would not happen, and there would be no need for Van Lundin to come out at night to find him and fight with the National People's Congress.

Thinking of it this way, he regretted endlessly, and blamed himself: "I'm sorry, I caused you trouble again, I..."

"It's my fault that you didn't do anyone any harm," said Van Lundin grimly, interrupting him.

It was his own fault.

I went to a nursing home that day, and had a primary bond with Qiao Ran who was in a coma. He left before he woke up, and he ignored him for two days. How to face Qiao Ran, more importantly, I don't want my arrival to attract too much attention to Qiao Ran.

Although it was a long vacation, and during this period of time, he was acting as low-key as possible, and his every move was still being watched by some irrelevant people. These were nothing to Van Lundin, who had been on countless battlefields, but to Joe However, it is not a good thing.

Whether it was from the paranoid possessiveness of the sentinel or from the consideration of safety, the more ordinary Qiao Ran was, the better. His cold treatment also successfully confused everyone in the nursing home, including Burris.However, it turns out that doing so cannot guarantee Qiao Ran's absolute safety, and there will still be people with ulterior motives like Gordon who will take advantage of loopholes by all means.

In fact, the safest way is to lock the person at home and not let him go anywhere except to act with himself, but he knows that this will not work.Qiao Ran seems to be weak and easy to talk, but has strong self-esteem and independent personality. He doesn't like to be controlled and restrained by others. Taking such tough measures against him will only be counterproductive. It will make Qiao Ran feel disgusted and fearful, and then alienate himself , that was not the result he wanted.

Fortunately, he arrived in time just now, if he was a step late, he couldn't imagine what would happen.The moment Qiao Ran was bound by the reticulated python and couldn't move, and his face was full of pain, a murderous intent surged in his heart.Later, he didn't kill Gordon, but seriously injured him. This was already the most sensible behavior he could do after Qiao Ran gave him mental training several times.

Qiao Ran didn't understand what Fan Lundin's words meant. It was obvious that he caused the trouble. Fan Lundin was not involved in this matter from the beginning to the end. Why did he take the responsibility on himself.It's just that he really didn't want to recall the scene just now, thinking about it made him sick, so he resisted not asking the bottom line.

It's just that Fan Lundin's state made him a little worried. The sentinel's face was still not very good-looking, and the blood in the dark golden eyes was still there, with a hint of hostility and killing intent.This is a dangerous symptom that cannot be left alone.

He said softly: "Valentin, I want to give you some guidance, is that okay? But my mental strength has not fully recovered, so the effect may not be very good."

Valentine didn't speak, but tightened his hands on the steering wheel, then slowed down the car and pulled over to a stop.

Already in the suburbs, there is a large wasteland beside the road, and the night is thick, only vehicles whizzing past on the road from time to time, and the dazzling lights across the road.

The lion sat on the back of Qiao Ran's chair, looking forward to it.Valentine also turned to Qiao Ran, looking at him darkly.

Qiao Ran's heart skipped a beat for a moment, and he didn't dare to look at Valentine, so he touched the lion's head, then closed his eyes as before, to get rid of distracting thoughts, then mobilized his thoughts, and slowly probed into Valentine's heart. field of thought.

Compared with the previous period, the sea of ​​consciousness has become restless again. There are layers of huge waves on the sea surface, and the once exposed corner of the sky is also covered by dark clouds.

Qiao Ran tried his best to spread out his thoughts, and calmed and sorted out more carefully than before.Perhaps because Van Lundin was subjectively willing to cooperate with his grooming, even though his mental strength was weaker than before the injury, the effect he achieved was good, basically clearing one-third of the space, which was a little better than last time.

This was already the best that Qiao Ran could do so far. He withdrew his limp thoughts and leaned on the back of the chair tiredly. He was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes, and he just wanted to fall asleep.

"Wake up."

In the dimness, it seemed that he heard Valentine talking to him, Qiao Ran frowned, and moved on the seat unhappily, hoping that the other party would not disturb his sleep.

But he couldn't, because he suddenly felt something trying to enter his mind.

Before that, Qiao Ran had only entered the spiritual realm of others, and had never been treated in reverse. This feeling was so strange and strange that he jumped and opened his eyes suddenly.

He found that Van Lundin had unbuckled his seat belt. The distance between the two faces was no more than [-] centimeters, so close that he could clearly see each other's distinct thick eyelashes and the small reflection in his pupils. Own.

Qiao Ran's heart beat wildly. What is Valentine doing? !

"Don't look at me like that." Such a defenseless look made him unable to resist, "Relax."

Valentine's voice was a little low, and then he stretched out his hand to cover Qiao Ran's bright black eyes.

As the light dims, perception becomes sharper.Feeling the rough texture of the opponent's fingers and the heat of the palm, Qiao Ran was a little helpless and nervous, but he knew that Valentine would not hurt him, so he took two deep breaths, trying to relax his body and calm himself down.

Afterwards, Qiao Ran felt a powerful spiritual force pouring into his consciousness space like a spring, soaking and watering his thoughts that had been sluggish due to overuse just now, and soon made those immature vines become green again. Fresh and alive, the branches and leaves stretch out, even jumping up a bit, and the stem is also thick.

This kind of experience is very novel, a little stimulating, and very pleasant. It feels similar to restoring energy after contacting the spiritual body, but the effect is much more obvious. Even masturbating Amao is not so efficient and fast.Qiao Ran felt that the pores of her whole body were opened, as if soaking in a hot spring, her toes curled up in comfort, and she couldn't help moaning and groaning in a low voice.

The big hand that covered his eyes was released instantly, and Qiao Ran saw the light again, and saw that Valentine had already sat back in his original position, panting a little shortly, as if he had just exercised in the gym for an hour.

At this time, a police car drove up next to them, and a policeman asked loudly, "Hey, you have been parked here for a long time, what happened?"

Qiao Ran got close, and quickly replied: "It's okay, I was just a little tired just now, take a rest."

The policeman looked at him with a radiant face, then looked at Valentine who was not breathing steadily in the driver's seat, showed a clear expression, and said with a smile: "Hurry up and leave when you're done, don't stop here and occupy the road. It’s not good to see the impact.”

"Okay, let's go right away."

Qiao Ran didn't understand what the policeman meant, and turned to Fan Lundin, "How are you doing? Do you want me to drive?"

At this moment, he feels that he is full of energy and has inexhaustible strength. It is probably not a problem to go out and run 3000 meters.

"Need not."

As Van Lundin said, he restarted the off-road vehicle and merged into the traffic flow of the road. His breathing sounded normal, and there seemed to be no problem.

Qiao Ran calmed down, recalled the previous situation, and asked suspiciously: "What happened just now, can your thoughts enter my mind? My mental strength seems to have increased a lot compared to before."

Van Lundin looked ahead and replied flatly while driving: "There can be a spiritual connection between the sentinel and the guide. The guide can sort out the overloaded nervous system of the sentinel. Conversely, the sentry with a normal mental state can also repair the damaged mental power of the sentinel." .”

Why did the textbook not explain how it would feel like to have a spiritual connection? He was completely unprepared, it was like... He didn't dare to think about the situation just now, otherwise he might not be able to restrain himself and drive the car into a ditch .

Qiao Ran suddenly realized, "It turns out that it can still be like this. It's amazing. After that, we can help each other. I'll guide you, and then you fix it for me. Isn't it very convenient!"

Valentine: "Yeah."

Qiao Ran jumped for joy, and was happy on her own for a while, but then she felt a little depressed when she thought of the beauty in her heart.Gordon was taught a lesson by Van Lundin. He was afraid that he would be injured if he didn't die. Andrew would know it soon, and then he would ask him to blame him.

After such a thing happened, it was impossible for Qiao Ran to coexist peacefully with Andrew, an accomplice, but he had no idea how to deal with him. Should he call the police?

I don't know if the police will accept this kind of case. After all, Gordon attempted violence, and it seems that Andrew just invited him to a meal. Even if there are surveillance cameras in the Italian restaurant, they can't capture anything Convincing picture.

Seeing the change in his expression, Fan Lundin said, "Gordon will never appear in front of you again, and Xinmei is a subsidiary company of the Legion. Your boss is stupid and poisonous, so naturally someone will take care of him. You don't need to worry."

Qiao Ran was completely relaxed now, and said from the bottom of her heart, "Van Lundin, thank you."

If Valentin hadn't arrived in time, he really didn't know what a miserable situation he would end up in.

Holding the steering wheel, Van Lundin asked in a flat tone, "How can you thank me?"

Qiao Ran was taken aback, this was the first time that Van Lundin asked him for favors, but he had nothing to offer, only a life, but Van Lundin would not take it, so how could he thank him?

After thinking for a long time, it seemed that he could only use his increasingly superb cooking skills, so he tentatively asked: "I'll make you supper when I get back later? What do you want to eat?"

It is not good to eat late at night frequently, but it should be fine to eat once in a while.No matter how complicated or difficult the food proposed by Valentine is, I will definitely satisfy him!

Valentine: "...whatever."

Whatever you want is fine!

Qiao Ran is relieved. This time, Valentine rescued him from the disdainful and shameless Gordon. He did a great deed. In addition to serving as a supper to reward the sentry, he had to add 10 points. Now the total score is 93.

In fact, it’s okay to add a little more, but now the score is so high, what should I do if I don’t have to add it in the future?So leave some leeway.

After arriving home, Qiao Ran carefully cooked a bowl of senbei dried meat porridge, and steamed a small piece of pumpkin pie. The portion was small and easy to digest, so as not to affect Fan Lundin's sleep.

That guy didn't sleep much, he probably only slept five or six hours a night, unlike himself, who was unshakeable for eight hours a day.

Fan Lundin ate all the porridge and cakes in a face-saving manner, and asked Qiao Ran after eating, "Do you want to stay in the beauty in your heart?"

Qiao Ran said decisively: "If Andrew is here, I will definitely leave. If he is not here, then I will continue. My colleagues are very kind to me."

Except for very few people like Nelson.

Van Lundin nodded slightly, and then went into his bedroom, instead of going to the living room to watch the news as usual.

Then Joe vaguely heard him on the phone when he passed by the door of the master bedroom, and his tone was very serious, so he walked away lightly, went to the living room and watched an episode of "Baa the Lamb" with Amao, and waited. It's almost time to wash up and go to bed.

Van Lundin was indeed on the phone. He first called the headquarters of the L8765 Corps to make some arrangements, and then dug out a private number from the address book and dialed it.

After the bell rang for more than 20 seconds, the other person picked it up and scolded angrily: "Fuck, disturbing people's dreams in the middle of the night will be kicked by a donkey!"

Van Lundin said coldly: "First of all, it is only ten o'clock, not midnight. Second, there is no such thing as a donkey on Planet Omega."

The other party choked for a moment, and then said in distaste: "It's so boring, the body of your less than 30 years old actually lives in the soul of a 70-year-old guy, right? Forget it, the chief of staff is magnanimous and doesn't care about you. But you It's rare to call me once a year, why did I suddenly remember that I'm here today, tell me, what's the matter, I'll give you 2 minutes."

The guy who dared to make fun of Van Lundin was Clyde, an S-rank sentinel. His grandfather and Old Hall were life-and-death friends, and the relationship between the two families had been very close for decades.Van Lundin and Clyde grew up together. They also studied at the First Federal Military Academy together. They are usually competitors, and they can trust each other to support each other at critical times.

After graduating from the military academy, Van Lundin went to the L8765 Legion, while the quick-witted Clyde directly joined the Federal Ministry of Defense by relying on his family connections. Over the years, he has flourished and his rise has been even faster than that of Van Lundin.

No, Clyde was just promoted to be the youngest chief of staff of the Ministry of National Defense at the beginning of this year, and then he met his true destiny, a senior guide who matched him by 90%. The first time I contacted Van Lundin, I had to show off, which was very flattering.

Van Lundin ignored Clyde's taunt, and finished speaking in just ten seconds: "I broke Gordon Jones's spine, and he probably won't be able to stand up for the rest of his life. You can settle the rest for me. "

"Who is Gordon Jones? The son-in-law of John Sr., Deputy Minister of Defense?" Clyde was slightly surprised, "Why did you hit his spine for nothing? Although you have always been a violent man, you have recently suffered from mental problems. But it’s not so indiscriminate!”

Valentine: "He touched my men."

Clyde's reaction was exaggerated, "What, what, did I hear you right, your man? You, a lonely guy, actually found a guide? Who has such a bad look! What does that person do? What is the mental body? What?"

"It has nothing to do with you. Can you help me with this favor? If you don't help me, I'll hang up."

"Help, why don't you help? Remember to pay back the debt you owe. Really, it's so stupid to ask for help. Gordon deserves it. It seems that his partner has died for a year, so he can't help but hurt others. , you are doing harm to the people this time. Hey, I guess you haven't got the guide yet, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be so irritable because of your desire|dissatisfaction. It's not like me, every day and my baby. , Enenaiaiai, there is no more harmony..."

Valentine didn't listen to Clyde's nonsense, and hung up the phone directly.
