There was another person in the room other than Shotton. It was a girl who looked to be around six or seven years old. She was sucking on a lollipop and was engrossed in a gunfight game. She ignored Silin's entrance and kept her eyes glued to the screen.
"The payment has been received. It looks like Aiflon is very satisfied with this matter." Shotton flicked the card in his hand and said.
Silin Douance had already disappeared from this world. Not even Aiflon would know what Silin looked like right now. Aiflon, who had obtained the position of heir, very generously gave out the payment. One portion was Silin's, and the other belonged to the Sixth Team. The payment this time alone was enough to cover the daily expenses of the Sixth Division for an entire year.
It had been almost a year since Silin accepted the mission. During this time, no one in the Sixth Division knew of Silin's existence or whereabouts except for a few individuals. It was only when the mission was over that Shotton told Eudy, Kari, and the others about Silin. This was because they had met Silin for the first time, and they were also part of the Dias Squad. They would continue to get along in the future.
"Eh? Who are you?"
The little girl who was playing raised her head to look at Silin after finishing a round. Her big sky blue eyes were filled with vigilance and curiosity.
Silin was also very curious. Shotton had actually brought this little girl with him. Could she be his illegitimate daughter? But it didn't look like it.
Shotton smiled and pointed at Silin, introducing him to the little girl, "This is Silin." Then he pointed at the little girl and said to Silin, "This is the new member who joined not long ago, Tang Qiuqiu."
Before Silin could be surprised by such a young new member, Tang Qiuqiu cried out, "Impossible! Silin doesn't look like this! "
Silin pulled over a chair and sat down in front of her, "I am Silin. Do you have any objections?"
"You're not! Silin has light grey hair, and his eyes aren't like yours. They don't look alike, and Silin is thinner than you! "Tang Qiuqiu said with certainty.
"I had plastic surgery."
"You're talking nonsense."
"I'm not talking nonsense."
"You're just talking nonsense!"
"I'm not spouting nonsense."
"You …"
"What about me? What makes you think I'm not Silin? "
"Because I was the one who shot him!" Tang Qiuqiqiu roared angrily.
Silin was shocked and looked at Shotton. Shotton nodded. Silin had always thought that the one who opened fire at Seven Lights' port would be Shotton, because Shotton had said that he would personally take action during their discussion. With the leader of Vanguard Division Six personally taking action, it would be very difficult to track him down. Moreover, the incident was completed perfectly. Up until now, Seven Lights had yet to discover the suspect who fired the gun. But who would've thought that it would be this little girl who fired the gun!
No wonder those people couldn't find the suspect. She was just an innocent and adorable little girl who was eating a lollipop in the crowd. Who would have thought that she would shoot someone?
"Qiuqiu, he really is Silin. He just changed his appearance, that's all. It's a mission." Shotton walked over and rubbed Tang Qiuqiu's head and said.
Tang Qiuqiu scanned Silin from head to toe before jumping off the chair and circling around Silin twice. "I don't feel like they're the same person at all."
"That's why I said he's an excellent hunter." Although Shotton didn't know how Silin had turned from his previous appearance to his current appearance, and Shotton couldn't quite believe that Silin had gone through plastic surgery on his entire body, these were his team members' secrets. Who didn't have a trump card up their sleeves? That was why he wouldn't ask too many questions. As long as the person was capable and had a trustworthy character, the Sixth Team would welcome them.
"Hmph, I'll be even better than him in the future!" Tang Qiuqiu returned to her seat and sat down. She unwrapped a lollipop and put it in her mouth before continuing to play the game.
Shotton gave her a look and gestured for Silin said that they should talk in the adjacent hall.
"There are a couple of newbies other than you this time, and they're all from Dias's Squad. Speaking of which, you should know them. You've already met Ba Zong and Coy Behind The Smile on the Sector Championship platform. Ba Zong's original name is Ba Dao, and Coy Behind The Smile's original name is Xiao Shang. They were sent to higher education institutions because their ages met the requirements. We may be Hunters, but we're also cultured Hunters. "
The moment Shotton mentioned Ba Zong and Coy Behind The Smile, Silin immediately knew that those two guys were pretty good.
"The other newbie who's also under Dias is Tang Qiuqiu." When he mentioned Tang Qiuqiu, Shotton sighed heavily, "She's from Sector V."
Sector V was one of the more chaotic Sectors among the Thirteen Backward Sectors. Because it was farther away from the other Sectors that were more developed, it was ranked at the back of the Thirteen Backward Sectors. It was far worse than Silin's home Sector X. The livable planets were plagued by the flames of war all year round, and the situation there was even more complicated than that. The League of Stars's garrison at Sector V would not interfere, and they wouldn't act so early. At the very least, they would wait until the people there were almost done fighting before sending out their troops to suppress them.
Since the development of civilization, when the people of Sector V came into contact with these high-end civilizations, they would divide into many factions and occupy an advantageous position through war. The foreign forces would infiltrate and provide them with weapons and wealth. At the same time, the invading forces would buy manpower and expand their territory.
Moreover, there were many children in that Sector who were reduced to war slaves from a young age. The first thing they picked up was not a spoon, a doll or a starship model, but a gun. The adults in the war zones would teach them how to use a gun and kill people. They would convince them that killing was the happiest thing in the world. There were many children who weren't even as tall as a gun when they killed their first person. Killing was to survive, and to them, it was like killing fish to eat. There wasn't much to it.
Basically, the children of Sector V did not have the so-called innocence that belonged to that age. Instead, they had numb and empty eyes, and their lives might not even be as long as a G rank genotype. This was especially true for girls. The slightly older teenage girls had to carry guns into battle, and were used as tools for men to vent their lust.
In that case, Tang Qiuqiu should be one of them.
"Qiuqiu looks like she's only six or seven, but she's actually eight already. She looks thinner and weaker than the average child due to early malnutrition. We met her when we went to Sector V to hunt down a 'prey'. Dias said that she was the only child he had seen in Sector V who wasn't dyed black by the smoke of war. At the time, none of our companions believed him, because when we saw Tang Qiuqiu, she was holding a gun and blowing up an adult's head expressionlessly. "
Shotton took out an electronic notebook and brought up a picture, "This is Tang Qiuqiu at the time."
Silin looked over. On the electronic notebook, there was a little girl with dry, messy hair and a face covered in dust. She was carrying an old rifle that was about the same length as her expressionlessly. The background was a street filled with blood type and violence, restlessness and noise.
"You know, Dias may not be outstanding in other aspects, but he's a good judge of character. At the time, Dias had tossed away his gun in front of Tang Qiuqiu and walked towards her with a kind smile. He signaled us not to follow, not to take out our guns, and it would be best if we didn't look in his direction. At the time, when we saw Qiuqiu pointing a gun at Dias, if Dias hadn't told us not to act rashly, we might've opened fire. At the time, we were so scared that we were drenched in sweat. "
When he said this, Shotton couldn't help but laugh, "Dias didn't pay attention to Qiuqiu's gun barrel. He walked in front of her and took out a few sugar balls he bought along the way to grind his teeth and passed them to her. At first, Qiuqiu's eyes were filled with caution and suspicion. Then, Dias picked up one of the sugar balls, peeled off the wrapper, and stuffed it into his mouth. He smacked his lips and chewed on it loudly. Perhaps it was the sweet smell of the fruit that attracted her. When Dias peeled off the wrapper and passed it to her, she caught it and stuffed it into her mouth. "
"After she stuffed the candy into her mouth, she smiled at Dias." Shotton brought up another picture.
Silin looked over. The electronic notebook still showed that face covered in dust, but the cold gaze from before was gone. It was a very clean smile.
At that moment, those eyes were as free as the sky.
