Let's see what kind of world he created

Just holding the child like this, all the way from the office to the parking lot, and then from the garage to home, Ning Chengyou didn't realize it until he put the child on the sofa in the living room, and he unconsciously forgot the fact that the child's legs were already healed .

But the child didn't say anything, so Ning Chengyou just turned a blind eye, pretending that he didn't remember anything, and got away with it.

After passing the checkpoint with the general, he thankfully raised his hands in a high-five gesture: "Come on, Chenchen."

The child didn't know, so: "What?"

Ning Chengyou realized that he might not understand what this gesture meant, so he helped him raise one hand, facing his palm, and patted it lightly: "That's it."

Looking at the child's confused expression, Ning Chengyou explained: "This is a gesture of celebration."

"Celebrate?" the child said slowly, "what?"

"Congratulations on passing the test," Ning Chengyou said, "That uncle likes you very much."

The child took out the candy General Cheng gave him: "He sent a gift."

"Yes, that means he likes you."

Not only do I like it very much, but I also want to take him home with me.Ning Chengyou wisely kept the latter words, and only said to the child: "That uncle is brother Cheng Yue's father, you will meet again in the future, and he will give you other presents at that time."

"No other presents are needed," said the child, holding the bag of candy, "this is enough."

Ning Chengyou felt that it was not enough, children were too easily satisfied, a small bag of candy felt enough.But think about it, when he was outside, he managed to make the child put down his guard with only one piece of candy. From this point of view, General Cheng's bag of candy may already be considered a lot in the child's eyes.

It is also a troublesome thing that children are too easy to coax, and anyone can trick them away.Ning Chengyou sighed silently:

"as long as you like it."

As long as he likes it, it's enough, Ning Chengyou can't control his thoughts, but he will do his best to give more.

He opened the bag, and there was quite a lot of sugar in it. Ning Chengyou roughly counted, there must be more than 20, but the size is relatively small.This kind of candy was the kind Cheng Yue was used to eating. General Cheng might have brought it with him by chance. After seeing the child, he had a sudden idea, so giving him the candy as a meeting gift was hardly considered a gift but a heavy affection.

"It's still the old rule, you can eat up to two a day." Ning Chengyou took out two and put them in the child's hand, and kept the rest in the bag, tied it tightly, and put it together with the snacks he bought earlier, "Eating too much Toothache."

The child didn't eat too much sugar, and he didn't know what a toothache was like, but he heard that Ning Chengyou was serious, so he couldn't help but become serious: "Okay."

After speaking, Ning Chengyou peeled a piece of candy for him, the sweet taste of milk filled his mouth, the child half-closed his eyes, and puffed his cheeks a few times.

After a short rest, Ning Chengyou remembered the questions he had temporarily put aside in General Cheng's office. It was not a good time to ask questions. Now there are only the two of them here, and he couldn't wait to ask.

"Chenchen, the person you met in Uncle Cheng's office this afternoon, do you know him?"

Ning Chengyou asked carefully.

The child's gaze changed for an instant, and he couldn't escape Ning Chengyou's eyes. He watched the child's eyes change from relaxed to defensive for a second, and quickly grabbed the child's shoulders: "If you don't want to say something, don't say it." I'm sorry, I don't know..."

"I've seen him," before he could finish speaking, the child's eyelashes trembled, and he replied truthfully, "but I don't know his name. He hasn't met me, so he doesn't know me."

Ning Chengyou carefully observed the child's expression, and saw that the other party did not show any pain, and his eyes were no longer vigilant and defensive as before. He was obviously willing to tell him the answer.

Feeling a little relieved, Ning Chengyou continued to ask tentatively: "Where did you meet him?"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he said with happiness in his heart: "Could it be the base?"

The child nodded: "That's right. He went to see the doctor, and I saw him."

Ning Chengyou frowned slowly. The base that the child talked about was definitely not a good place. This can be seen from the child's description of the place and the treatment the child himself received. In the base, except for people like the child, There are also managers, instructors, and doctors, who can be regarded as the ruling class of the base.This kind of base is obviously illegal, and it is likely that they are engaged in many secret activities. Ning Chengyou originally planned to start investigating that place in a few days, but he did not expect Yuan Xilin to appear there.

What is he doing there?

What does he have to do there?

Ning Chengyou then asked the child: "Do you remember how many times he went there?"

The child recalled: "I saw it twice."

twice.Ning Chengyou thought about it for a while, but found that he had never paid attention to Yuan Xilin's whereabouts. His understanding of the other party was limited to the title of "General Cheng's Deputy". I can match my face with my name, but I don't know anything else.

Ning Chengyou: "Do you still remember when we parted?"

"Last year," said the kid, "he always went straight to the doctor, and a lot of people saw him."

"A lot of people in the base?" Ning Chengyou asked.

"Ah."

It seems that Yuan Xilin did not hide his identity at all in that base, but it is understandable. After all, most of the people there are like children, who have been isolated from the world and do not understand anything, even if they know who he is They don't even think about reporting them. They are all in the same group. How can there be grasshoppers on the same rope fighting each other?People are not stupid.

"What does he go there for?"

"A lot of things. Watch us train, chat with doctors, and test drugs."

When the last word was spoken, the child's eyes darkened and his body tensed involuntarily, which seemed to be an expression of fear.However, given that children themselves don't feel much fear, Ning Chengyou prefers that this is a conditioned reflex produced by the child's body.It occurs when you hear or talk about certain people or things.

The child's repeated mention of the word "doctor" also made Ning Chengyou feel a little unusual. He originally thought that this doctor was similar to Qin Yan and Mo Rong, and belonged to the role of a doctor in the base. Treatment, plus the child said that the main thing the doctor did was to check their physical condition, made him subconsciously think so.

But now, that doesn't seem to be the case.

In the child's description, this doctor seems to belong to a kind of pronoun, specifically referring to that person.

He considered his words and asked, "Chenchen, what does that doctor mainly do in your base?"

"He is the master of the base," said the child, "in charge of the entire base."

Sure enough, Ning Chengyou thought, this doctor is indeed more than just a "doctor".So it seems that this so-called doctor built this base, collected sentinels like children, and trained them—or tortured them, so that they could be his weapons and do things for him.

The child continued: "He can do many things, but he spends most of his time in the laboratory and rarely shows up."

"Then who is always in charge of you?"

"Manager."

Oh, Ning Chengyou also remembered that there are still such positions in that base.

"Then when will you see him?"

"Injury, disobedience, and death," the child said blankly. "He sometimes sends people to the laboratory."

"What are you doing in the lab?"

"Research, punish, test medicine."

Ning Chengyou's face froze, guessing that this "experimental drug" would definitely not be as simple as it sounds.

He has heard that since the virus broke out in a large area, everyone is eager for the invention of a vaccine. Due to the lack of time and experimental products, and in order to succeed, some secret research laboratories will use human experiments to conduct experiments directly. The life and death of a person is only between success and failure. In the eyes of those people, a life is not as good as a milliliter of medicine in a test tube.

Even a strong child like a child would involuntarily have a chain reaction of fear just because of the mention of those words. Ning Chengyou couldn't imagine what he had experienced.

It must be countless times scarier than the scenes he has seen in some movies.

Such a cute, milky and cool kid who can be coaxed away with a piece of candy, what have you experienced before?

As long as Ning Chengyou thought about it for a while, he couldn't help feeling distressed.He hugged the child to his lap, let him lean on his chest, patted his back lightly, and said, "It's okay, it's all over."

"They're not here now, and they won't be here in the future. I won't give them a chance."

"You have to believe me."

The child fell silent in his arms, and he easily caught the rare emotion that was revealed, held it up cherishedly, and comforted him bit by bit.

He swayed slowly with his arms around the child, and repeated his previous promise: "Don't worry, I will never let anyone hurt you again."

The child in his arms still didn't speak, and after being softly comforted by him for a while, he finally moved, silently rubbing his forehead against his shoulder.

Ning Chengyou hugged the child even tighter: "Chenchen is not afraid, I am here."

The child responded in a low voice: "Yes."

After a while, the child raised his head in his arms, and his eyes had returned to normal.It was getting late, Ning Chengyou thought it was time to cook, so he rubbed the child's hair: "Are you hungry?"

The child touched his stomach subconsciously, and made a rigorous judgment on the state of his stomach: "A little bit."

"Okay, I'll cook." Ning Chengyou put the child down, let him stay in the living room, and turned on the TV, "Wait here for a while, it will be ready soon."

"Okay." The child raised his head, looking back and forth between him and the TV, he couldn't help laughing, and finally bent down and pinched the child's face, with the delicate touch of his fingertips:

"gone."
