Chapter 288 Zhou Mo: I'm here to find my mother.

Red Heart Society, Gray City Branch.

Zhou Mo used the headquarters' teleportation array to arrive directly in Gray City.

In the previous timeline, when Zhou Mo had just begun to show his talent, the Red Heart Society had already thoroughly investigated all his intelligence.

Therefore, he knew that his parents lived in Gray City.

The first person he went to see was not his father, but his mother.

So, when Yu Xiuxiu opened the door at that moment, she was greeted by a man's face that looked quite similar to her own.

The inexplicable sense of kinship made her frown.

In a flash, an idea, full of melodramatic family drama tropes but seemingly perfectly reasonable, rose in her mind.

A seventeen-year-old girl's imagination is boundless, especially when faced with such irrefutable evidence!
This requires almost no thought!
The next moment, she turned around and went into the house, shouting to her father who was working, "Dad, your illegitimate son who looks exactly like you has come to the door. You'd better go and see him!"

Not far away, Yu's mother was slightly taken aback when she heard this.

She then walked outside and looked at Zhou Mo, who was standing outside.

"Okay!"

"Old Yu!"

"You actually have a child out of wedlock?"

"If you don't give me a clear explanation today, you can get out of here with your illegitimate child!"

Father Yu: "?"

A question mark slowly rose from his head.

what?
What is this and what?

When did he have an illegitimate child?

How come I didn't know?

Seeing that his grandparents were about to start arguing, Zhou Mo quickly stepped forward to explain.

"You've misunderstood. I'm here to see my mother."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiuxiu's expression froze instantly.

No!

Dude, you look so much like my dad, are you here to find your mother?
You can't possibly be my mother's illegitimate child, can you?

But this isn’t right either!

How could my mother's illegitimate child look so much like my father?

Suddenly, an incredible idea flooded into Xiuxiu's mind.

"Could you be my twin brother, born of the same mother?"

Yu Xiuxiu looked at Zhou Mo with a stunned expression.

Upon hearing this, Yu's father and mother fell into an eerie silence.

"Mom, your ideas are as wildly imaginative as ever!"

Zhou Mo looked at his young mother with a sense of helplessness.

Yu Xiuxiu: "?"

A huge question mark slowly rose in her mind.

She's only seventeen years old!
The person across from me who looks a bit like me must be around thirty years old, right?

His hair was turning quite gray.

A 30-year-old man calling himself "Mom"?
Am I crazy, or is the world crazy?

Or perhaps, science fiction time-travel novels have become reality?

But is this possible?

Could his own son be some important figure?

Then, amidst various future disputes, they develop a machine capable of traveling through time and space, and board the machine just to see themselves once.
In an instant, a jumble of random thoughts flashed through Yu Xiuxiu's mind.

After all, she thought it was quite reasonable. If they weren't related by blood, why would she inexplicably have feelings for a strange man?

Most importantly, the other person does look somewhat like me.

While Yu Xiuxiu was caught in a state of hesitation and speculation, it didn't mean that her parents weren't angry.

Just as Yu's father and mother were about to grab a broom to chase them away, Zhou Mo flipped his right hand, and a Red Heart Token appeared in his hand.

"Buzz!"

The spatial ripples emanating from the Red Heart Token instantly brought over the Gray City branch leader who was waiting outside.

Even if I explain seriously, or show my strength, my grandparents might believe me.

But if the founder summons him, then his time becomes extremely precious!

His time should be dedicated to the scientific research of the Red Heart Society!
Therefore, he didn't want to waste extra time arguing about impossible things.

The best approach is to find a high-ranking person approved by your grandparents and have them endorse you.

Immediately afterwards, the president of the Ash City branch of the Red Heart Society rushed over after being summoned.

"Three!"

"This is a special envoy from the headquarters of the Red Heart Society!"

“I have been assigned by headquarters to prove to you that everything he said to you, no matter how absurd, is absolutely true.”

"."

The president of the Gray City branch looked at Yu Xiuxiu's family and said solemnly.

He was unaware of the conversation between the two parties. However, he knew that this important figure from headquarters had come to find relatives.

Thinking about it, he looked at Yu Xiuxiu with an envious gaze.

With such an important person as a relative, the family's future destiny has undergone a dramatic change from this moment on.

Yu Xiuxiu listened to the branch president's words and looked at Zhou Mo in shock.

From the moment the branch president appeared, she almost believed Zhou Mo's words.

She was just really curious about what earth-shattering things her future son had done.
Not only did they travel through time and space back to the present, but they also managed to have the branch president of the Red Heart Society personally come to accompany them?
Unbelievable!

Meanwhile, in Steel Ridge City, in the old town area.

A middle-aged man with a leg disability, leaning on an alloy cane, stared incredulously at the strong young man before him, whose eyes were warm, and who claimed to be his future son.

If it weren't for the steel-spine city branch deputy commander beside him guaranteeing it with the most serious military orders, he would almost have thought this was a conspiracy specially concocted for him by some evil force.

The same thing happened in Star City.

A single mother, her face haggard but her eyes resolute, held her infant child tightly in her arms, looking at the person standing at the door with a mixture of shock and fear.

The tall young man in front of her smiled shyly and called her "Grandma" with tears in his eyes.

What a pity!

Her son had just been born, and suddenly a superhuman appeared out of nowhere and called her grandma.

The other party even stated that he would use all his strength and resources to cure his "father's" congenital disease.

His "father" will also possess the powerful strength of a ninth-level professional under his personal training in the future.

Beside him, the Star City Commander of the Red Heart Society was incoherently explaining the truth of the matter to the other party, repeatedly emphasizing that the young man came from the Red Heart Society headquarters and would never lie about such a thing.

Inside a small house in Storm City, a fishing couple living in the harbor stared in shock at the young man dressed in Red Heart Society attire before them.

What did the other person say after they came over?
They actually called them maternal grandparents?

Their daughter is only three years old this year, okay?
Outrageous!

But right nearby, the Red Hearts Harbor Sheriff, with a resolute expression, confirmed the truth of everything to them.

Strange things happen every year!
There are so many this year!
Even if all of this is true, does that mean I should let my 20-year-old grandson raise my 3-year-old daughter?

Son acting as a stay-at-home dad for his mother?

This looks really weird, doesn't it?
Similar incidents occurred almost simultaneously in multiple locations within the Red Heart Society.

Under normal circumstances, as long as a Red Heart Society fighter demonstrates his extraordinary power, and there is strong corroboration from the local Red Heart Society branch, his relatives from that point in time will choose to believe him.

Although this is outrageous, the sincerity that brought them a happy life has already proven it. What else can't they believe?

Did the Red Heart Society send a branch leader like this just to amuse them?

If that's the case, then what's wrong with them cooperating?
To put it bluntly, sincerity will make their lives happier and fill them with hope for the future.

In this situation, even if someone with a pure heart were to call a deer a horse, they would still applaud and cheer in a very cooperative manner.

Most importantly, these soldiers from the joint regiment who came to search for their relatives all resembled their relatives to some extent, whether in appearance or other aspects.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Lin Xia sat in the conference room, watching the Peacock Empire gather troops on the border and order the Red Heart Society to cede the Plateau Province to them within a month.

Only in this way can the wrath of the Mauryan Empire be appeased!

Most importantly, the Mauryan Empire used the harshest diplomatic language to demand that the Red Heart Society hand over the Red Heart soldiers who had killed the Mauryan envoy.

not only that!

The soldiers' parents and relatives were also all to be escorted to the Peacock Capital!

The Peacock Empire will use the most brutal means to bring these thugs who murdered the Peacock envoys to justice.

They wanted to solemnly declare to the world that no one could trample on the dignity of the Mauryan Empire!
Anyone who dares to provoke the Mauryan Empire will be met with its thunderous wrath.

"What is the Peacock Empire thinking?"

Lin Xia was amused as she looked at the diplomatic statements.

The fight hasn't even started yet!
Why does the Mauryan Empire sound like they've already won the final victory, or even that their army is at the gates of the city?
He was genuinely curious about what was going on in the minds of the high-ranking officials of the Peacock Empire.
"I don't know."

Lin Xue shook her head and said, "Under normal circumstances, such diplomatic language and such harsh conditions are either thrown out at the negotiating table to shock the enemy, or they are the declaration of the victor."

"It's quite peculiar that they've started declaring victory before the game has even begun."

Lin Xue paused for a moment, then continued, "However, if the Peacock Empire did this, it wouldn't be surprising."

"After all, the other party is capable of pretending to possess ultimate military weapons and then fooling the whole world."

Across from him, Deng Qi said, "My suggestion is that after the Nine-Turn Professionals sweep through, the army should go and occupy the Peacock Empire."

"According to my estimate, this war can definitely be ended within two months."

Although the Peacock Empire is quite peculiar, the area near the Abyss Battlefield within its borders is indeed rich in resources.

In any case, the Red Heart Society should take over all those resource points as soon as possible.

As for the high-ranking officials of the Peacock Empire?

Since the other party has such a bizarre idea, let's send them to see the source of their own culture!
"Buzz!"

Just then, Emperor White Eagle's private message came into Lin Xia's communicator.

The moment the call connected, the White Eagle Emperor's anxious voice came from the other end.

"Lin Xia!"

"The Peacock Empire is very powerful!"

"Therefore, I suggest you consider the other side's thoughts and carefully decide on matters of war!"
