Chapter 2775 Persistence
Seeing Julian like this, Meili and Tatanil both looked guilty.
They never thought that Julian would fall and get hurt. This kind of terrain was not a big deal for them. At most, they would get lost for a while.
In fact, they still ignored that Julian was different from them. Meili and Tatanil had been adventurers for a long time in order to survive, and they were used to suffering. Although Julian was only the daughter of the village grocery store owner, her father Solang treated her as the apple of his eye and carefully cultivated her. He never let her go to dangerous places.
It was because of this that the inexperienced Julian was anxious after losing the target's trace, and she accidentally slipped because the vision became worse when it got dark.
Meili and Tatanil felt very guilty and secretly looked at their leader, but saw that the leader just squatted down and asked the accompanying priest to help with treatment.
Julian saw the figure in front of her in a daze. Even in the dark, she could recognize her childhood playmate by the faint light of the torch. So she reached out and held his hand tightly, saying weakly: "Cohen... I finally found you... I want to join the group..."
She was quite persistent.
Jia Zhengjin didn't say anything, but asked the priest to heal her scratches, put her on the back of the shadow leopard, and quickly returned with all the members to the adventure group's base.
After returning, she fed Julian some food, and her complexion looked better, and she finally regained her strength.
Let the members of the group go about their own business, and Jia Zhengjin arranged a place for the father and daughter to rest first.
It was already late, so he might as well let the father and daughter go home tomorrow morning.
Solang felt very distressed when he saw his daughter being brought back. It was the first time he saw her so weak, and I heard that she was injured in a fall. Fortunately, the priest helped to treat her.
After Jia Zhengjin arranged a room for them, Solang came to his daughter and said to Jia Zhengjin: "Cohen, I want to talk to Julian."
"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin turned around.
"Cohen..." Julian was a little anxious when she saw him leaving.
"Julian, sit down!" Solang stopped his daughter and said seriously, "Let's talk!"
Julian sat down obediently in the face of her father's stern eyes.
Jia Zhengjin came outside the house, closed the door, and walked directly to the bar.
On the way, Meili and Tatanil appeared at the corner, with their heads down and full of guilt.
"Cohen, I'm sorry!" Meili looked up at him secretly and whispered, "We didn't think carefully and threw Julian into the woods, causing her to get hurt..."
"It's all my fault!" Tatanil said hurriedly, "I should have thought that she was different from us, unfamiliar with the terrain, and didn't have much experience in outdoor adventures. If I had thought of this earlier, she wouldn't have slipped off the mountain..."
"No, blame me!" Meili said calmly, "I suggested getting rid of her at that place."
"Blame me..."
The two of them competed to admit their mistakes in front of him.
"That's enough!" Jia Zhengjin interrupted them, "You two are both wrong, there's no need to argue."
Meili and Tatanil immediately lowered their heads, looking like they were waiting to be taught a lesson in front of him.
"Well,
Tomorrow you two will send Julian and her daughter home." Jia Zhengjin thought for a moment, "Stay in the orphanage for the next three days to reflect on your mistakes. You are not allowed to return to the base or take any missions during these three days. Just stay in the orphanage honestly!"
"Ah?!" Hearing this, Meili and Tatanil looked up with anxious expressions. It's not that they don't have money to spend if they don't do missions. Now, even the lowest-level members of the Holy Spirit Adventure Group don't worry about money. It's just that you have to stay in the orphanage for three days, you can't go back to the base, let alone take any missions, which means you can't see the leader.
"You have to be punished for doing wrong things. I punish you to reflect on your mistakes at home. Are you dissatisfied? Or should I change the punishment content and let you go to the capital to do exploration missions and not come back within a month?" Jia Zhengjin took the opportunity to let them leave for a few days so that they can have a little peace.
Meili and Tatanil didn't want to stay in the orphanage for three days, but when they heard that they had to go to the capital for a month, their faces turned pale instantly.
It's still possible to count two people. Three days and one month, that's ten times!
Three days was uncomfortable, how could a month be enough?
In comparison, of course, I know how to choose.
"Cohen, we will stay in the orphanage obediently!" Meili said quickly, "We must reflect on our mistakes."
"Yes! We must repent!" Tatanil also nodded hurriedly.
"That's good! Go to the warehouse to get a new set of living utensils for the father and daughter."
"Yes!!" In order to redeem themselves and make a good impression on the leader, the two hurriedly took action.
During this period, Jia Zhengjin found a seat at the bar, took a drink casually, and chatted with other members while drinking. The topic was of course about the rebels who were about to arrive and the attitude of the adventure group towards this matter.
After an unknown amount of time, when the bar was getting less and less crowded and most of the members returned to their rooms to rest, Solang, who looked haggard, appeared in front of Jia Zhengjin: "Cohen, let's chat!"
"Sit down!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and made a gesture of invitation, "Would you like a drink?"
"Yes!" Solang sat down in front of him, and the members at the bar immediately brought a glass of good wine.
Solang raised his head and put the glass to his mouth, gulped down a few gulps, and moved his eyes to Jia Zhengjin's face: "I just talked to Julian for a long time. From childhood to adulthood, this is the first time she didn't listen to me..."
Jia Zhengjin held the drink cup and listened quietly.
Solang paused and continued: "This child has always been very well behaved. Today, for the first time, she refused to compromise with me and insisted on being an adventurer. No matter how I persuaded her, she still refused to agree to give up..."
Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin said: "Let's do this! I will go over and talk to her and persuade her to go home. As long as I don't agree, she can't join the Holy Spirit Adventure Group."
Suolang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's useless! She just said that even if you don't agree, she will be an adventurer. Even if she can't join the Holy Spirit Adventure Group, she will start a new life as an adventurer. If you don't approve of her now, she will continue to improve her adventurer rank until you approve! Her stubbornness Once she gets angry, it's hard to change. At first, I couldn't understand why she was obsessed with adventurers..."
"Why?"
Suo Lang smiled bitterly and looked at Jia Zhengjin: "This kid is not obsessed with the adventurer's identity, but with you! You two grew up together, and I saw it all. In the past, you always chased Julian, but she never saw you and only treated you as a good playmate. But now she suddenly got it! In fact, it doesn't matter whether you are an adventurer or not, what matters is that she wants to be by your side. She wants to hold on to you who has suddenly moved away. Unknowingly, you two little ghosts have grown up..."
