Chapter 94 The Knot in My Heart Is Finally Untied

Drums and firecrackers sounded yesterday.

At the intersection leading to the town, the town alliance put up a banner.

This is not to welcome the New Year.

Today is the day when a retired soldier in Langqi Town returns home.

After completing all the procedures, Chen Xizhou met the retired soldier named Lin Xiao in a bungalow with several "Glorious Home" doorplates.

Lin Xiao has an upright figure and a firm look.

He wears a neat and clean military uniform, and bites his lips tightly in the mask, revealing his determination to protect the alliance.

According to archival records, Lin Xiao was a brave soldier in battle, but he lost a hand in a peacekeeping mission.

He was forced to retire.

"Brother Lin, I wonder what you are good at?"

After meeting certain conditions in the military, the retired will go through the transfer procedures and return to the place of household registration, and the local alliance will be responsible for arranging work.

Lin Xiao meets the requirements, so his job is arranged by the Langqi Town Alliance.

That's why Chen Xizhou asked this question.

Chen Xizhou is younger than Lin Xiao, so it's okay to call him "Brother Lin".

Lin Xiao is not a person without self-knowledge. He knows very well that Chen Xizhou is being polite to him.

He immediately stood up and said to Chen Xizhou: "Mayor, thank the alliance for caring about our veterans, but I..."

Lin Xiao was speechless for a moment. What is he good at?

As a special forces soldier, Lin Xiao is good at harassment and destruction, reconnaissance behind enemy lines, stealing intelligence, and emergency rescue.

But in a small town in the Huaxia Alliance, these things seem to be useless.

Chen Xizhou saw Lin Xiao's embarrassment, and he said to Lin Xiao: "The wind power plant in Langqi Town is being expanded recently, and there is still a lack of a deputy director there. I think Brother Lin should be able to do this job."

Lin's mother is a very simple rural old woman.

She doesn't understand what a wind power plant is, but she knows what a deputy director is.

After hearing what Chen Xizhou said, Lin's mother took her son Lin Xiao and kowtowed to Chen Xizhou to thank him.

Lin Xiao's brothers were also soldiers. They all died on the battlefield defending the Huaxia Alliance. Even Lin Xiao, the only survivor, was forced to retire because of a broken hand.

So it's better to say that this is a martyr's home than a glorious home.

For various reasons, the sacrifice of several children did not allow Lin's mother to get the subsidy she deserved.

Now that Lin Xiao retired due to disability, Chen Xizhou, as the mayor, not only did not despise him, but was also willing to arrange a job as a deputy factory director for him.

For Lin's mother, this is the kindness of a second parent.

Not to mention Lin's mother, even Lin Xiao, a dull man, also felt a deep sense of gratitude at this moment.

In fact, Chen Xizhou could do better in arranging work, but Lin Xiao's file showed that he had certain post-traumatic stress disorder.

Chen Xizhou can only arrange him to a place without pressure like a wind power plant.

After making the decision, Chen Xizhou personally took Lin Xiao to the windpipe beach.

Wind power plant.

Lin Xiao was shocked by the scene in front of him.

In addition to the wind turbines being assembled, there are also a large group of elves flying around or attached to the windmills.

"They are called Magnemite, and they are a group of very cute little guys."

To be honest, whether it is Magnemite or Magnemite 3, their images are not cute.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

In Chen Xizhou's eyes, his elves are all cute.

If the stinky mud and the stinky muds are willing to join Langqi Town in the future, even if they are extremely smelly, they will be cute in Chen Xizhou's eyes.

"In fact, I also met a lot of elves when I was performing the violation mission in the Middle East Alliance."

Lin Xiao looked a little nostalgic.

Seeing him like this, Chen Xizhou couldn't help but think of Chen Yang.

Chen Yang also missed his experience in the African Union's aid construction in the past few years.

He also subdued a little York.

Thinking of this, Chen Xizhou suddenly noticed the backpack that Lin Xiao had been carrying on his back, and then looked at Lin Xiao thoughtfully.

During the conversation, Chen Xizhou deliberately talked about the story of Chen Yang's aid construction in Africa.

He also emphasized that he brought back a little Yorkie from the African Union.

After hearing this, Lin Xiao was a little uneasy.

He hesitated for a moment.

After taking off his backpack and putting it on the ground, Lin Xiao unzipped it to reveal the contents of the backpack.

Lin Xiao said with difficulty: "Mayor... This is an elf egg entrusted to me by an enemy elf during a peacekeeping mission. I... have never handed it over to the troops."

"I know it's wrong to do this, but I don't want to betray the other party's trust!"

Lin Xiao looked a little excited.

It is said that loyalty and filial piety are difficult to have, and sometimes loyalty and righteousness are not the same?

The Huaxia Alliance's troops stipulate that all spoils of war "as public property, must be taken good care of, registered and kept, and reported to superiors for proper distribution and processing. It is not allowed to be regarded as the private property of individual units or a few people, and concealed or arbitrarily damaged or sold."

In principle, Lin Xiao's practice is a crime.

But not all of them.

Chen Xizhou asked: "What do you think elves are?"

Lin Xiao seemed to have a lot of ideas about Chen Xizhou's question, but he couldn't say them.

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to answer, Chen Xizhou expressed his own opinion: "Humans are living creatures, animals are living creatures, and elves are also a kind of living creature..."

Whether animals or elves, they are an indispensable part of the ecosystem.

They play an important role in maintaining ecological balance, promoting economic development, and inheriting culture, and are of great significance to human survival and development.

Chen Xizhou said softly: "If elves are a kind of creature, then elf eggs are their children, and we can't treat them as an object."

If they are not objects, they are not trophies.

"Brother Lin..."

Chen Xizhou looked at Lin Xiao and asked softly: "What do you think?"

It is said that men don't shed tears easily, but at this time, Lin Xiao was in tears and crying.

Chen Xizhou patted Lin Xiao, but didn't say anything.

He understood that this man who looked extremely strong on the outside, the pressure that had been accumulated in his heart for many days, finally released all at this moment with tears.

After a while.

Lin Xiao's mood finally eased down.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh."

He wiped his tears and expressed his gratitude to Chen Xizhou with a sense of relief.

Lin Xiao took the elf egg out of his backpack.

The moment the elf egg appeared, Lin Xiao's heart knot was completely untied.

A ray of sunlight sprinkled on the elf egg.

Then, a milky white light began to radiate from the elf egg.

"This is..."

"Put the elf egg down, it will hatch soon."

Although Lin Xiao's face was full of excitement at this moment, he still restrained himself and carefully placed the elf egg on the flat backpack...
