    Chapter 92 Little Star (4)

    As soon as these words came out, Xie Yinxing's pretty face immediately wrinkled.

    She twisted her skirt with both hands, stared at Garcia and Jiang Jianming reluctantly, and said dullly: "...Anyway, it's mine now, give it back to me!"

    "It's yours now, what about before?" Jiang Jianming asked lightly after taking a bite of the apple that Garcia had just handed over.

    Although it is not the precious variety of 'Irene Onyx', the fruit of apples is inherently delicious.

    Xie Yinxing raised his eyebrows and snorted: "You don't know! That guy can't even open a bottle cap, and he can only scare people with a gun. I think it's a waste to put it in that kind of garbage, so I brought it here."

    Jiang Jianming couldn't help laughing, and he returned the apple to the original owner and took the gun from Garcia's hand.

    He fiddled with it briefly. Although the model is small and looks like a toy, it has everything from safety to trigger to magazine. It is indeed a real thing.

    When contacting Xie Yinxing, he quickly guessed the general cause and effect... This gun should be a customized product for some noble child. Perhaps the original owner was a playboy who showed off and even bullied other children when he got the weapon. Xie Yinxing couldn't get used to it, so he took the sheep by the hand.

    Garcia is not very interested in Xie Yinxing, or there are not many things in the world that can arouse this person's interest.

    He held Jiang Jianming and didn't want to let it go. He first confirmed that he was not injured or sick, and then began to ask whether there was anything abnormal at the banquet.

    Jiang Jianming couldn't help but whispered: "I'm fine, but this is in the house, how did you come in? Wasn't anyone seen?"

    "No, the surveillance cameras are all broken." Garcia gestured to the apple in his hand with his eyes, "...do you still eat it?"

    "If you don't eat it, you can do it yourself." Jiang Jianming rubbed Garcia perfunctorily, and then pondered what to do with Xie Yinxing in front of him.

    It stands to reason that he should confiscate the gun, or give it to Mrs. Donna, but...

    Jiang Jianming hesitated for a while. He thought of the current situation in the empire, and he didn't know what it would be like in a few years.

    This girl is like her father, bold and clever, and perhaps having a weapon for self-defense isn't such a heinous thing.

    Eight or nine years old... At my age, I seem to be following my adoptive father to touch the mecha. Children like Audley who belonged to a big aristocratic family should be earlier.

    But they are all guided. However, Xie Yinxing's mother obviously would not agree with her daughter to follow her husband's old path.

    Jiang Jianming thought for a few seconds, then walked to Xie Yinxing and squatted down, his eyes were level with her: "Xingxing, what do you want to do with this gun?"

    Xie Yinxing blinked: "Be a weapon."

    "What are you doing with weapons?" Jiang Jianming continued to ask, "Weapons are tools for hurting or even killing people. This is not a good thing."

    "Oh..." Xie Yinxing thought for a while and slowly frowned.

    Garcia didn't speak, he stood beside Jiang Jianming and continued to eat the apple he brought, staring at the two with interest.

    "But what if there are big bad guys?"

    Xie Yinxing suddenly raised two small hands, flexed his fingers, stared at Jiang Jianming and threw himself in front of Jiang Jianming, like a monster, "Wow!"

    Garcia quickly stretched out his hand and dragged Jiang Jianming back, the little girl fluttered and made a face at Garcia angrily.

    "The bad guys are going to hurt the good guys, so someone needs to shoot the bad guys - that's what my dad is like, and I'm going to be a big hero like my dad!"

    She was still young, so she was obviously not frightened by the almost identical appearance of Garcia and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she just thought it was a friend of Jiang Jianming's bad character.

    In the peaceful night, Jiang Jianming smiled softly.

    He put his palm on top of the little girl's head, but looked at the sky, and said slowly, "But... wouldn't it be better if this was a world without bad guys and no one needed to shoot?"

    "what……"

    Xie Yinxing's eyes flashed, and he opened his mouth thoughtfully.

    After a while, she nodded: "That makes sense."

    "We need to shoot, it means that there is an enemy in front of us, it means that our country, our family and friends are or will be hurt by the enemy, which is a very sad thing."

    Jiang Jianming said, wrapped Xie Yinxing's little hands with his own hands, took her to raise the gun, and pulled down the insurance.

    "So, don't shoot for happiness, don't shoot for hero."

    His voice fell into the girl's ears softly, "When you raise the muzzle, you have to be sad. When you pull the trigger, you have to be in pain... Endure the pain and still be strong."

    boom!

    Jiang Jianming pressed Xie Yinxing's fingers and pulled the trigger, and the bullet shot out, breaking a snow-covered branch not far away, causing it to fall to the ground.

    Xie Yinxing was stunned. After a few seconds, he said softly, "Wow...you, you are amazing."

    Jiang Jianming sighed softly in his heart.

    The moment he just pulled the trigger, his pain was...

    He had to teach such a young girl how to use weapons.

    Xie Yinxing put on the insurance and hid the small pistol. Jiang Jianming looked at the time: "it's getting late, children shouldn't run around at night, go find your mother."

    Xie Yinxing pulled Jiang Jianming's clothes reluctantly: "Big brother, where do you live? Can I play with you often in the future? I haven't heard your story about Dad and Yin Beidou."

    "Do you have a wristwatch?"

    Jiang Jianming asked Xie Yinxing, and the little girl nodded.

    "My name is Jiang Jianming," Jiang Jianming exchanged contact information with her and touched her head, "Find me anytime."

    "Is it really possible?" Xie Yinxing's face lit up immediately. She happily removed the bracelet on her wrist. The chain was strung with pearls, and the pendant in the middle was inlaid with a ruby ​​the size of a fingernail.

    She put the chain on Jiang Jianming's wrist and said with a smile, "For you, brother Jiang."

    Jiang Jianming was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile that he couldn't accept such an expensive gift.

    But Xie Yinxing insisted, Jiang Jianming finally accepted it, thinking that it was a big deal to buy something for the girl and Mrs. Donna next time.

    "..."

    Garcia stood beside him with arms crossed, frowning coldly.

    He thought to himself: Why does Jiang Jianming always gather a bunch of other human beings around him, and then he touches his head and coaxes him.

    As long as a few days, as short as a few minutes, no matter how unruly human beings will be tamed very well by him.

    So... is he also one of the humans he tamed with ease?

    Garcia shook his head secretly: No, maybe this is a normal phenomenon, a creature like himself without relatives and friends is an anomaly.

    "Your Highness... Your Highness?"

    When he came back to his senses, Jiang Jianming called him beside him.

    The black eyes of Qing Jun's crippled human curled up and waved at him: "Let's go, it's time for us to go back."

    ...

    In the middle of the night, the snow outside had almost stopped. The two left Lauren's house in hiding, Garcia put on a mask, and Jiang Jianming rented an aircraft on the side of the road to drive back.

    When he returned to Jin Ilun's officers' dormitory, Jiang Jianming raised his head and glanced at the night sky again, his thoughts flying.

    Another day of nothing, only the unease in my heart grows.

    Tomorrow is the last day before the festival, the emperor will go on a tour, and the people of Aslan Star City will gather to celebrate.

    But there is still no trace of those dangerous real crystal mines.

    There is no way out. The military has been on high-intensity vigilance these days, but after all, the enemy is in the dark, and even if something happens, they can only respond accordingly.

    Jiang Jianming even wanted to pray that these real crystal ore had been used to make new crystal weapons, folding mechas or energy tablets.

    Whatever is known is good, at least it is "known", the known is not as scary as the unknown.

    Thinking about it, he has already reached the door of his own house. Garcia suddenly stopped and grabbed Jiang Jianming's wrist without looking at it.

    "Bracelet," he squinted coldly, "take it off and give it to me."

    Jiang Jianming: "Your Highness?"

    Garcia said patiently: "You said that nothing abnormal happened at the banquet, and Lauren did not attack you."

    Jiang Jianming: "Yes."

    Garcia: "So now, you are back with all your tails and the only change is an extra bracelet." He paused deliberately, "Shouldn't I care?"

    Jiang Jianming was dumbfounded.

    Garcia pushed him irritably and pressed him against the corner: "You're in a bad state, can't you think of it? What's wrong with you?"

    Jiang Jianming pursed his lips and told Garcia about Xie Yuduo. He whispered again: "Sorry, there are too many things, I may be a little confused... Thanks to you."

    The news from Xie Yuduo was so shocking that Garcia didn't speak for a long time after hearing it.

    After a moment of silence, he involuntarily pulled Jiang Jianming's wrist, removed the chain, and put it in his arms.

    "I'll keep it first, and I'll return it to you if there is no problem."

    Garcia pulled Jiang Jianming into the room, and grabbed another washed apple and stuffed it into his arms, "Don't think about it. You think too much...it's easy to die of illness."

    the same moment.

    In the mansion of the Seekert family, the windows went dark and the lights went out.

    Xie Yinxing just came out of the shower and rolled onto his bed. The girl was lying on her bed, her two little feet swayed, she was holding the wrist phone, and her face was full of joy.

    "Oh... Xingxing and brother chatted so happily, that would be great, haha."

    On the opposite side of the wrist phone came the voice of Prime Minister Lauren with a gentle smile.

    "Yeah!" Xie Yinxing nodded vigorously, "Brother Jiang is really good, just like what Your Excellency Lauren said."

    Lauren said: "Yeah, that brother, like your father, is a hero who fought for the empire. Did Xingxing give him a gift?"

    "Give it!" Xie Yinxing responded cheerfully, "Thank you, Your Excellency Lauren, for helping me prepare gifts!"

    At this moment, there were footsteps outside the door, and the girl looked back and stuck out her tongue: "Yeah, mom is here. Good night, Your Excellency Lauren, see you next time."

    After saying good night to each other, Xie Yinxing cut off the communication. At the same time, the door opened, and the glamorous Mrs. Sect... Donna walked in.

    Donna glanced at her daughter on the bed: "Amelia, are you chatting with Lord Lauren again?"

    "Well." Xie Yinxing turned over and threw himself on his mother's shoulder.

    But soon she "suddenly woke up" and puffed her cheeks in feign anger and said, "No, it's not Emilia, it's Xingxing!"

    "Xingxing...is that the name your father gave you?"

    Donna sighed sadly. She hugged her daughter and sat beside the bed while stroking Xie Yinxing's cheek, and said quietly, "If your father is willing to be like Lord Lauren..."

    Donna raised her face and stared at the group photo at the head of Xie Yinxing's bed. In the photo, Xie Yuduo is holding Xie Yinxing, who is still in the baby, in one hand and her in the other.

    ... that was an old group photo from several years ago. After so many years, Xie Yuduo couldn't even squeeze in time to take another group photo with Xie Yinxing, who had grown up.

    Donna leaned her back against the head of the bed, looked at the group photo for a long time, and murmured, "A man who doesn't even care about his own family, and a man who can't even grow up with his daughter, is a hero."

    "But..." Xie Yinxing lay in Donna's arms and said, "Dad is father, not the same as Lord Lauren."

    The girl grabbed her mother's finger and said seriously: "Although Lord Lauren is also very gentle and has always been kind to mother and Xingxing, Xingxing does not want her father to become Lord Lauren. In that case, the original father will be gone. "

    Donna was stunned for a moment, then she slowly smiled. There is a bit of bitterness in the smile, and there are some more complicated and inexplicable feelings: "...Xingxing is right."

    "This year's festival, we won't go to Lord Lauren's house, nor will we go to other Lord's homes."

    Donna turned off the bedroom light for her daughter. In the dark, she closed her eyes and kissed Xie Yinxing's forehead: "Just let mom and Xingxing live together."

    The author has something to say: His Royal Highness Garcia, an excellent creature that eats apples and is jealous will not affect its keen food protection (especially ginger) ability.
