The True Colors of a Hero

Chapter 28: The small village of my hometown

Views:

The villa is large but not extravagant. As soon as you enter the door, you can see a 100-meter-sized pool. The pool is bottomless and you can vaguely see three great white sharks swimming.

Behind the sink, there is a door leading to the living room. Li Mengyao was sitting on the sofa in the living room. When Liu Xun and Liu Zhang came in, she stood up.

"Brother, where have you been all these years? I used my connections to look for you in the military, but I couldn't find you. Your ID information has also been blocked."

Entering the living room, Liu Zhang nodded to Li Mengyao, said "sister-in-law", and then asked Liu Xun.

"You will definitely not be able to find out where I am, because it is currently the most advanced military force in the world and it is also an unrecognized military force." Compared with Liu Zhang, Liu Xun trusted him 100% and naturally would not hide anything.

At this point, Liu Xun suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and continued, "The place where we train cannot even be detected by American satellites. Although the military leaders of various countries have speculated that there is such a type of soldier, there is no definite evidence."

"It's getting late now. Brother, you and sister-in-law should go to bed early. I have already booked the tickets for tomorrow." Liu Zhang could guess that after meeting Liu Xun, Liu Xun would definitely go back to SD, so he booked the ticket early.

"Okay, you should go to bed early too. We can talk tomorrow if we have anything to say." Liu Xun was not going to tell Li Mengyao about Liu Zhang's plan. Firstly, one should be on guard against others, but more importantly... knowing too much would not be a good thing for Li Mengyao.

After entering the room, Liu Xun went to the bathroom to take a shower, letting the cold sea water splash on his body.

Twenty minutes later, Liu Xun wrapped himself in a bath towel and murmured softly, "Who could it be?"

He eliminated possible murderers one by one. Liu Zhang couldn't be the murderer, nor could his second grandfather. And his third grandfather, who was elusive and whom Liu Xun had only met once since he was a child, was even less likely.

"It seems that after returning to SD, I must visit my second grandfather." Liu Xun said and walked out of the bathroom. At this time, Li Mengyao was lying on the bed, looking at Liu Xun with a hint of nervousness and a little expectation in her eyes.

Liu Xun walked to the bed, kissed Li Mengyao on the forehead, and said softly: "Go to bed early."

Li Mengyao frowned when she heard this, but didn't say anything. She nodded and turned off the light.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Li Mengyao was a smart woman. Since she had already said that, she was naturally prepared for what might happen tonight, but she also noticed some changes in Liu Xun at this time.

"The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop, the son wants to take care of his parents but they are not waiting..."

Liu Xun sighed. He was not a pretentious person. Initially, Liu Xun was planning to have sex with Li Mengyao tonight, but after this incident, he was no longer in the mood.

When Li Mengyao heard what Liu Xun said, she also guessed that Liu Xun's grandfather had passed away. She rested her head on Liu Xun's chest and said softly: "No matter what happens in the future, I will be with you."

"No matter what happens in the future, I will never let you suffer any injustice." Liu Xun said in his heart. A man's promise is not something he says, but something he keeps in his heart and proves with his actions.

Liu Xun held Li Mengyao in his arms and sniffed her body fragrance. Liu Xun himself probably didn't know that the smell of this woman would slowly replace his original spiritual support and become the only thing that could temporarily suppress... the murderous intent in his heart.

Early in the morning, Liu Xun got up at six and went for a five-kilometer run around the beach. After Liu Zhang and Dapeng packed their things and took care of the trivial matters, the four of them arrived at the airport in City S at about eight-thirty.

The plane took off on time at 9:30 and landed at Jinan Airport at 10:30!

Grandpa Liu Xun's tomb is still in that small village. It's not that Liu Zhang didn't want to buy a cemetery for the old man, but he knew that the old man liked this quietness and was reluctant to give up those dozens of acres of green onion fields, so he buried the old man directly in the green onion fields. Those dozens of acres of land were later bought by Liu Zhang.

As soon as the four got off the airport, an Audi Q7 drove over. This was the branch of Situ Group in Jinan, so they didn't have to worry about the vehicle or accommodation.

After nearly an hour's bumpy ride from the airport to the village, Liu Xun got off the car as soon as he arrived at the village entrance. After all, this was the place where he was raised, and he wanted to see it any longer.

It has to be said that society is progressing, and the village is very different from what it was five years ago. The mud houses have disappeared, replaced by rows of concrete walls, and every household has been equipped with solar energy.

"Hey, why does that kid look so familiar?" Some villagers looked at Liu Xun and whispered to themselves. When Liu Zhang left five years ago, his appearance had almost been fixed. Although he had changed a lot in five years, it was inevitable that some sharp-eyed people would notice it.

"Look, the kid behind him, isn't that Liu Zhang?" It might be difficult for the villagers to recognize Liu Xun, after all, Liu Xun had been gone for a long time, but Liu Zhang had only been gone for two years, so he was recognized.

"Liu Zhang is a promising kid, and a good person. He built schools and houses for our village. He is worthy of being a child taught by old man Liu and he never forgets his roots." Some villagers looked at Liu Zhang and spoke kindly.

When Liu Xun heard these words, he put his arm around Liu Zhang's shoulders and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "From now on... we two brothers should prepare to atone for our sins! Do you have money with you?"

Liu Zhang nodded and said softly, "I have it. Three million! It's in the carriage."

"Let Dapeng take it. Two million will be distributed to all the uncles and the remaining one million will be given to Dahu's parents. Remember, don't let other people in the village know that you are giving the money to Dahu's parents." Liu Xun patted Liu Zhang on the shoulder and then walked forward.

Although the villagers are simple and honest by nature, there are inevitably some who are greedy for money. If this matter is known by someone with ulterior motives, giving money to Da Hu's parents will undoubtedly harm them instead of helping them.

This is a big village, and Liu Xun distributes money not to each household, but according to the number of people. There are a total of 2,000 people in the village, and two million is undoubtedly only 2,000 per person.

Two thousand dollars would not make anyone rich, nor would it enrich the village, but it was just a token of Liu Xun and Liu Zhang's appreciation, and it could be considered as a way to appease their conscience for what they would do in the future.

"Hey, is this Liu Xun? I haven't seen you for five years. You've made great progress. That's great." The person who spoke to Liu Xun was a woman in her forties. Although she was just forty years old, wrinkles were all over her face and eyes.

"Aunt, are you feeling well? How about Yanyan? Has she given birth to a big fat grandson for you?" This woman was the mother of one of Liu Xun's classmates, and her daughter was the school belle at the time.

Li Yan, like Lin Meng'er, was one of the two most beautiful girls in Liu Xun's school. Liu Xun was young and frivolous at the time, and he also pursued Li Yan, but was rejected, so he pursued Lin Meng'er.

"I'm in good health, but Yanyan is too worrying. She hasn't found a son-in-law for me yet, and I'm still waiting for that son-in-law to take me to live in the city." Li Yan's mother said with a sad face.

"Okay, auntie, uncles and aunts, Liu Xun has to go pay respects to grandpa first. Liu Xun was not there when grandpa passed away. If I don't go to pay respects now, grandpa will scold me." Liu Xun didn't want to know what his daughter was doing at all. He asked Li Yan only because he had nothing to say.

"Go, go, it's human nature, and we should pay our respects." Some old people in the village nodded. Liu Xun's grandfather had a good reputation in the village, so when they heard Liu Xun talking about his grandfather, they were also a little sad and sighed. (To be continued)
