Just as the bug lying next to the box was about to knock a picture frame under the cabinet, Fei quickly stepped forward and caught it steadily.

This is the only family photo they took after the baby insects hatched.

"Stop fooling around, go play with your father." He ruffled the insect's head, his tone full of affection, "And you too."

He stared at the ferret and added.

"Ding-ding-ding-" A series of urgent doorbell rings.

Fei glanced at the gate with a puzzled look. He had only just returned from the military headquarters, and according to normal time, it should be time to get off work by now.

Who would be ringing his doorbell like crazy at this time?

He strode to the entrance and opened the door, where he saw Wenxi's face covered in sweat.

Before he could ask what was going on, the other party hurriedly said, "Brother Fei, something bad has happened! The situation in District Three is critical! Return to headquarters immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu's expression darkened. He knew what Wen west meant without her having to say it.

Alarms have been issued from all three Zerg regions; it seems the Zerg are truly in disarray.

He looked at the female insect, who was staring at him with a somber expression, and reassured her, "It's alright, you can go. I can take care of myself."

Jiang Yi watched his female father leave and was about to chase after him when he called out, "Female father, wait for me!"

Seeing the baby insect about to pounce on him, Fei reached out and stopped him, saying seriously, "The female insect has to go to work. While I'm away, can the baby insect take good care of the male father for its female father?"

Jiang Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded emphatically: "Yes, Xiaoxue and I will take good care of the male father, so the female father can rest assured."

He patted his chest and assured Fei.

Fei patted his head: "Hmm. Father will be right back."

Jiang Xu had already reached the entrance hall. He reached out and scooped up the little insect, knowing that it might not have time to come home for the next few days, so he pulled it into his arms.

He patted him on the back: "Don't worry, if anything happens, Bug Boy and I will be with you."

Fei's anxious heart was truly comforted at this moment. He turned around and hugged Jiang Xu, gently rubbing his neck, and said in a deep voice, "Yes. My lord, wait for me."

"Okay." Jiang Xu released him, reached out and pinched the insect's claw, waving it at Fei: "Say goodbye, Father Mother. We'll be waiting for you obediently at home."

Jiang Yi looked up at Jiang Xu with some dissatisfaction, but still followed Jiang Xu's instructions and said in a soft voice, "Father-in-law, go quickly. Father-in-law and I will stay home and wait for you obediently."

Fei patted Jiang Yi's head, the panic in his eyes fading. He looked straight into Jiang Xu's eyes and said, "My lord, I'm leaving."

After saying that, he boarded the aircraft that Wenxi had brought without looking back.

Jiang Xu stood at the door for a long time, until the aircraft was completely out of sight, before letting out a long sigh.

He reached out and touched Jiang Yi's head, his expression grave. "Little bug, now it's just the two of us left at home."

Based on Jiang Mian's previous comments, those insects at the Jiang family villa most likely knew about these things in advance and left with the other insects.

However, he discovered that his grandfather was indeed capable of such things.

Everyone else has left, leaving only him, a mere insect.

Aren't you really afraid that he might get squashed by some insect?

Of course, he knew Jiang Mian's other intentions, but he never thought about what would happen if he really couldn't remember those things and stared at Fei Chou Chou.

It's unclear whether he genuinely didn't think of it, or if he did think of it but simply ignored it.

Inside the aircraft, Wenxi looked at Fei and glanced reluctantly a few more times in the direction of Green Grass Street.

After thinking for a long time, he said in a low voice, "Brother Fei, if you are really worried about Lord Jiang Xu, how about I send you back? I'll cover for you with the military."

Fei withdrew his gaze, looked at Wenxi beside him, and shook his head: "No, this time, I'll do it myself."

The last time Wenxi was forced to take someone else's place, it almost killed him. If it happened again, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

Jiang Xu and Wen west are equally important to him.

"This time, the military urgently recalled us because the higher-ups said that a large number of strange beasts had appeared on the border," Wen Xi said with a grim expression. The incident on the western battlefield last time had left a deep impression on him.

At that time, the mythical beasts were not so directly deployed to the battlefield, which means that the mythical beasts were not yet stable.

Or rather, he felt it was more like a testing phase.

Now, the borders of the three regions are in dire straits, and the west is no longer hiding its true intentions. It even took advantage of the fact that the female warriors from other regions were in the east discussing the alien beasts to launch a surprise attack on them.

"Brother Fei," Wenxi called out to Fei again.

"Speak," Fei replied, looking at his somber expression.

"Once you get to the military headquarters, if you're ordered to lead a team, just refuse." Wenxi knew that what she said was wrong and did not conform to the duties of a female soldier: "The mutated beasts are more ferocious than we imagined."

When you went to the south last time, you also heard what Lord Jiang Bian said.

Haven't you thought about what would happen to Lord Jiang Xu and the little bug if something happened to you?

This emergency mobilization was described as a complete crisis, with almost all female soldiers to be deployed. But to put it more bluntly, it was a matter of sacrificing the lives of female soldiers for the lives of alien beasts.

As long as there are enough female soldiers, those alien beasts will naturally be worn down.

But the prerequisite is—there must be enough female soldiers!

The streets in the east were still peaceful, and no one noticed that the sky above the military headquarters had changed, with many aircraft appearing in the sky above the capital at the same time.

All of their destinations were in the direction of the military headquarters.

Jiang Xu closed the door, looked at the box that Fei had half-organized, and slowly walked over. Following the female insect's previous actions, he put their family photo from the cabinet into the box.

"Father." The little insect stood beside Jiang Xu, rubbing its face against his arm, and asked in confusion, "Will the female insect be gone for a long time this time?"

"Mm," Jiang Xu replied without pausing, his hand still sealing the box.

He glanced at the photo wall and walked straight towards it. That wall belonged to the storage room door of the house, but it had been made into a hidden compartment.

He pressed hard against the wall, and with a "click," the wall popped open automatically, revealing the space behind it.

Jiang Xu took a step forward, looked at the dark room, reached out and touched the wall by the door a few times, and quickly found the light switch.

With a gentle press, the storage room instantly lit up.

"Huh~" The little bug was seeing this room for the first time and found it very magical: "Wow, Father, this room is so interesting."

He always got found by the weasel when they played hide-and-seek before. If he had known there was such a room here, he would definitely have won.

He thought to himself with delight.

Jiang Xumei ignored him, looked at the several boxes piled up in the depths, walked towards them, placed the box in his hand on top, and then really examined what was in the room.

He glanced around and his gaze fell on the nearest pile of boxes. Apart from the boxes he had just placed there, only one cardboard box looked brand new, unlike the other boxes which were covered in a layer of dust.

It's obvious that they were only recently brought in.

The box wasn't sealed. He picked it up, placed it on the table in front of him, and opened it.

"Eek—huh, father, you're so shameful." The little insect next to him, who was lying by the cardboard box, blushed as it saw what was inside.
