I'm a female field team. What's wrong with a little black technology?

Chapter 88

The No. 1 Land King Chariot returned to the camp. It was already late.

The soldiers and miners had worked hard all day and had gone to bed early after dinner.

Under two strange-looking trees near the mine cabin, a red dot flickered in the dark.

Xia Ying sat under the tree smoking.

There was a layer of dead leaves as big as a cattail leaf fan on the ground. Liu Ruobing sat next to him.

"Yingbao, I think you must be missing Xia Lan too much, so you have an illusion."

"Maybe……"

Xia Ying took a deep puff of her cigarette and stared at the darkness in the distance:"But at that moment, she gave me a very familiar and close feeling."

"However, after all these years, there has been no news, and no one knows whether he is alive or dead."

"If she is still alive, I don't know what she looks like now. I may not recognize her even if I see her face to face.……"

"I can't tell, maybe I'm just mistaking it.……"

Xia Ying was talking to herself, and she seemed very sad.

"Yingbao, no matter what, I believe Xia Lan is still alive, and you sisters will definitely be reunited."

Liu Ruobing gently patted Xia Ying's shoulder and stood up:"I'll go take a shower first, and we'll talk later."

"Go ahead"

""Yeah."

Liu Ruobing nodded and turned to leave.

In front of the wooden house, Du Fei had been sitting on a rattan chair thinking about something.

Seeing Liu Ruobing coming towards him, he stood up and asked,"What happened to Xia Ying?"

"Oh, I miss her sister." Liu Ruobing sighed softly.

"She has a younger sister?" Du Fei was slightly stunned.

"Yes, I'm sad right now.……"

Liu Ruobing's face was gloomy, fearing that Xia Ying would be too sad.

Then, she thought for a moment, and looked at Du Fei with a pleading look:"How about... you go and persuade her"

""Okay, I'll go take a look."

Du Fei said, and walked towards two big trees not far away.

Before he got there, he heard a murmur coming from under the tree.

"Lan, do you know that I am living a happy life now? I eat refined rice and white flour for three meals a day.……"

"Now our sisters are all living a good life, all this is because our legion has a good leader"

"He is a super genius, not only handsome, but also very kind to us, and he also saved my life"

"Our camp is under construction now. The team leader said that we will build a city in the future so that all the family members can live in our city.……"

Xia Ying's voice trembled, and then she sobbed a little,"Lan, you know, when I heard what the leader said that day, I really wanted to know your whereabouts."

"I really want you to live with us. I really miss you.……"

Xia Ying had been talking to herself sadly, and was completely unaware of Du Fei's arrival.

After a while, the cigarette butt was about to burn her fingers, so she threw it away and took out another one.

The moment the lighter lit up, she almost jumped up:"You scared me... um, captain……"

When she saw that the person next to her was Du Fei, Xia Ying quickly wiped her tears and said in panic,"Captain, why are you here?……"

"I heard someone was crying, so I came to see him." Du Fei said with a smile

"No way, this beautiful lady won't cry."

Xia Ying raised her sleeves to wipe away her tears, and then took out a cigar from her pocket.

After lighting it, she handed it to Du Fei:"Can you smoke one with me?"

"……"

Du Fei smiled bitterly, took the cigar, and sat down next to her.

"Cough cough...cough……"

After taking a bite, Du Fei coughed repeatedly and almost fainted.

"Don't smoke cigars over your lungs……"

Xia Ying couldn't help wanting to laugh, and quickly stretched out her little hand, patting Du Fei's back distressedly, and then said,"Forget it, you can play with it."

After a while, Du Fei recovered and asked,"You have a sister?"

Xia Ying's face darkened when she heard this, and she nodded and said,"Yes."

"You don't know her whereabouts?"

"have no idea……"

Xia Ying took a puff of cigarette and shook her head:"I don't even know if she is still alive."

Du Fei frowned:"Tell me what happened"

"You want to know?"Xia Ying was slightly startled.

Du Fei blew the cigar in his hand and nodded at her.

"Okay."

Xia Ying took a deep breath, was silent for a while, looked up at Du Fei:"Do you know about test-tube babies?"

"I know."Du Fei nodded.

In order to increase the population, the Federation, in addition to normal reproduction between people, has adopted test-tube babies, which account for more than 60% in the base city.

After birth, each test-tube baby is the same as a family-born baby in this world, with a fixed lifespan of eighteen years.

The only difference is that family-born babies are raised by their biological parents, while test-tube babies are either raised by the Federation or adopted by other families.

Since the fixed lifespan of each person before the age of eighteen cannot be traded or plundered, that is to say, before a person turns eighteen, the Federation cannot gain any benefits from them.

Therefore, the Federation stipulates that, except for criminals, everyone can live in the base city before the age of eighteen, attend various military academies, and train their hunting abilities.

However, after the age of eighteen, the fixed lifespan will end, and if you want to survive, you have to go outside the city to hunt time beasts and work hard to earn time.

From that moment on, for people who leave the base city at the age of eighteen, it is either the beginning or the end of life.

To put it bluntly, no matter what, they will eventually become a tool for the Federation to earn time.

"What I want to tell you is that my sister and I are both test-tube babies. I am three years older than my sister, and she is not my biological sister."

"We were adopted by a family when we were young."

Xia Ying said to Du Fei.

Du Fei nodded again. In this world, test tube babies are like this. This is a normal phenomenon.

Xia Ying bit her lip and then began to speak.

"The parents who adopted me and my sister were very kind to us."

"Unfortunately, when I was six years old, Fuxing City was attacked by a beast tide and my father died in the mouth of the Time Beast, leaving only my mother and my sister."

"A few years later, due to the pressure of life, my mother found a stepfather for us in order to support us."

"Unexpectedly, my stepfather has a bad temper. He is not only a gambler, but also a pervert."

"After winning a bet, he would often go to a social camp to splurge, but every time he lost a bet, he would plunder his mother's time. If his mother resisted, she would be beaten and kicked, often with bruises all over her body."

"My sister and I were not spared either. If we were not pleased with him, he would either beat us with a stick or hang us up and beat us."

"Every time I was beaten, my sister would always stand in front of me. She was very young at the time and was always beaten with wounds all over her body, but she still comforted me and said that she didn't feel any pain at all."

Xia Ying said, her voice sobbing, and tears couldn't help flowing out:"Captain, do you think she is stupid?"

Du Fei felt a throbbing in his heart, frowned, and remained silent.

"Maybe we are test-tube babies, so we don’t deserve a happy childhood. We envy other families’ children."

"In my sister's and my eyes, other children live in a honeypot, but my sister and I live in a nightmare."

"From that time on, my sister and I looked forward to growing up every day, looking forward to turning 18 and leaving Fuxing City."

"However, when my sister was thirteen years old, she met with misfortune.

Xia Ying showed resentment on her face and continued,"That day, my stepfather lost the bet again. He first beat my mother violently, and then madly robbed her of the little time she had."

"As a result, his mother died under his cruel gaze, and his sister, in a rage, picked up a sharp knife and stabbed him to death when he was not paying attention."

"At that moment, my sister killed someone. She was convicted of crimes against humanity by the federal government and sent to the mines."

"When I turned 18, I met Ruobing's mother and joined the Women's Field Corps."

"Later, I heard that the mine where my sister was imprisoned was attacked by a beast tide. Many people died at that time, but some people escaped during the chaos.……"

After saying this, Xia Ying couldn't help herself and threw herself into Du Fei's arms and started crying:"For so many years, I didn't know whether she was dead or alive, wuwuwu……"

At this moment, Du Fei felt mixed emotions. He patted Xia Ying's back and comforted her,"I believe good people will be rewarded. Your sister must be alive."……"

After saying that, she suddenly remembered the scene when she was staring at the drone screen before, and asked:"Why did you have such a big reaction when you saw the short-dressed woman among the five people today?"

"I don't know either. I felt a sense of familiarity when I saw her for the first time."Xia Ying stopped crying and said

"How old is your sister this year?"

"20 years old"

"I just heard you call her Lan, what is her specific name?"

""Xia Lan." Xia Ying wiped her tears and answered.

Du Fei's heart skipped a beat.

He remembered that Black Phoenix called the short-dressed woman Lan.

Plus, the short-dressed woman was about twenty years old.

There was a word"Lan" in their names, and their ages were basically the same.

Is there such a coincidence?

Thinking of this,

Du Fei felt vaguely that the short-dressed woman might be Xia Ying's sister.
