Chapter 172 Azure Dragon Base
The next day, Ji Xiyun, who had been sitting outside all night, yawned as she entered the RV. She hadn't slept well that night and was feeling a bit sore in the back.

"Wake me up when we get to the Qinglong base." After getting in the car, I lay down on the bed to catch up on sleep.

Bai Miao's injury wasn't serious, so he just lay down on the sofa.

The journey was short, and it wasn't far from the Azure Dragon Base. We arrived safely at the majestic Azure Dragon Base.

The group stood at the gate for inspection, and Ji Xiyun looked up at the base standing on the lake with great interest.

She didn't know the exact area of ​​the site, but all she could see were the hundred-meter-high silver-white walls of the Azure Dragon Base, giving it a cyberpunk feel.

Driving inside, you'll find a guard post almost every two steps. The houses are still in their pre-apocalyptic state, just with some additional protective measures.

The closer you get to the important areas of the base, the more solemn the surrounding buildings become. Unlike the Suzaku and Baihu bases, the office buildings here are complete high-rise buildings.

In short, the Azure Dragon Base is very well preserved, with no ruins in sight, and the condition of the pedestrians on the road shows that the base has protected them very well.

"Sister Yun, will it be okay to leave Xing Xiao and the two balls outside?"

It's no wonder Ouyang Lin asked; there weren't a single zombie or mutated plant near the Azure Dragon Base, making Xing Xiao and the two balls rather conspicuous.

Ji Xiyun, who was sitting in the back seat with her eyes closed and resting, remained very calm and completely ignored him. Xing Xiao was no longer the kind of mindless zombie; surely she knew to bring two balls and hide!

Besides, she won't stay at the Azure Dragon Base forever. After handing over the items, she'll go out and have some fun. She can't possibly start retiring now.

Sensing the car stop, everyone got out and stood at the building entrance. "Only one of you can come in. The rest of you go and rest first!"

As expected, recalling what Commander Fu had said, Ji Xiyun lazily replied, "I only want to see Commander Ji!"

Although his tone was lazy, his clear eyes were exceptionally sharp and piercing. The people responsible for picking them up kept silent and did not respond; this was not something they could decide.

After a few minutes of stalemate, two people walked out of the gate. The one in front was clearly a bodyguard, while the middle-aged man behind him was impeccably dressed, though his features looked somewhat familiar.

As soon as he stepped out the door, Jiang Ze looked up and glanced around. To his surprise, he saw a familiar face. "Oh! You've finally decided to come home for a visit."

"Uncle, how are Mom and Dad?" She looked at Jiang Heyan, who exuded a gentle aura, with surprise. So he was someone of importance!

"Everything's fine! We'll see when we get back. If you don't know where it is, just ask them." As she spoke, she pointed to a few uniformed young men standing to their side.

Jiang Heyan nodded. He really didn't know where his parents lived and needed someone to show him the way.

"What's the matter?" Although communication between the bases has been restored, there are some things that cannot be guaranteed, so the people at the Azure Dragon Base do not know.

As the main communicator, Jiang Heyan nodded again, his face full of caution, "Uncle, can we go in and talk?"

After a moment's thought, Jiang Ze only took Jiang Heyan and Ji Xiyun into the building, while the others followed Ouyang Lin and Qin Xiu to find a place to rest.

If they hadn't come to the Azure Dragon Base, they would never have guessed that Jiang Heyan and his two companions were actually people with aliases.

"Speak!" The three men entered Jiang Ze's office without saying a word.

"Chief Fu asked us to send over a list, but he specifically requested that I hand it to Ji Guozhou personally. So, could you help us meet with him?"

Jiang Ze scrutinized her with sharp, intimidating eyes, but she wasn't afraid at all. Let him look; it wouldn't hurt her. "What's your name, little girl?"

Before he could finish speaking, Ji Xiyun interrupted him, "Ji Xiyun, 24 years old, Level 7 superpower, orphan."

She gestured to Jiang Ze with her eyes, asking if he had any more questions, but whether he would answer them was uncertain.

The surname is Ji, but I don't know which Ji it is, so I asked in confusion, "Ji?"

"The 'Ji' in 'discipline'!" Realizing he had misunderstood, she added.

"I can take you two to see the base commander, but are you sure you don't want to rest before starting the mission?"

He shook his head in refusal. It was better to do this sooner rather than later, as delays could lead to complications. Thinking of those people from last night, his eyes darkened.

Things might have already started to change. Let's just hope those people don't move too fast, otherwise this list will lose its value.

Ok!

Ji Xiyun didn't say anything more after that, but occasionally you could hear her chatting about everyday things, which showed that Jiang Heyan's family atmosphere was very good and there weren't many messy and troublesome things to deal with.

"Does Xiao Ji know who her parents are?" Jiang Ze, who was walking ahead, suddenly asked about her parents, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Okay, let's just tell the truth!

"I know, my mother died in childbirth. That scumbag married his mistress and had a son before my mother's seven-day mourning period was over, and then abandoned me on the roadside to fend for myself."

Upon hearing this, both uncle and nephew were stunned. Jiang Ze sighed inwardly at the little girl's tragic background, while Jiang Heyan felt a clear pang of heartache.

No wonder she reacted that way when she saw the toys Ouyang Lin took out; she never imagined that Ouyang Lin had such a background.

"Do you know your parents' names?" Considering the timeline, she was only a few days old at that time, so it was impossible for her to know her parents' names.

Just as he was about to speak, the little girl answered his question, "I remember, I went to pay respects to my mother and also met that scumbag. My mother's name is Ji Mengwu, and that scumbag's name is Fang Mingxuan."

"So you took your mother's surname. This Ji Mengwu sounds familiar to me. If it weren't for the different surnames, I would have thought they were the same person."

He was referring to Ji Guozhou's older sister, Ji Mengwu. Back then, the Ji family was one of the most prominent families in the country. His sister was overprotected by her family, which led to her developing an innocent and naive personality.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have severed ties with her family and disappeared without a trace for a man who had nothing.

The Ji family hardened their hearts for a while, thinking they would take Ji Mengwu home once she calmed down, but they never heard from her again.

Even now, Ji Guozhou is still searching for news of Ji Mengwu. He doesn't believe that his sister would be so heartless as to abandon her family, nor does he believe that she might have already passed away.

He would constantly shout that he wanted to see her alive or dead, otherwise he would not have given up on continuing to search for his heartless sister who had disappeared decades ago.

"Oh? Uncle Jiang, would you mind telling me more?" Her eyes lit up with gossip; she really wanted to hear more!
"It's alright to talk about it. The person I'm talking about is Ji Guozhou's sister, whom you're supposed to meet. She ran off with someone who has nothing, cut ties with her family, and hasn't contacted them once in decades."

Ji Xiyun listened quietly, thinking that this was another top-tier love-obsessed person who was no less capable than her own cheap mother.

While listening to the gossip, the three of them went up to the base commander's office, at which point Jiang Ze also stopped talking.
