The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 179 Shen Le, can you accompany me to visit the grave? (Yu Fu Rewards plus more)
Shen Le clenched the porcelain box in his hand and lowered his head deeply.

That's right, that's how it was. Ah Xin died on the way and couldn't go home, couldn't bring the porcelain box back home...

Then, the person to whom he entrusted the porcelain box, or perhaps the person to whom he entrusted the porcelain box again, died at the hands of the tiger, and the news was never brought back.

But now I can bring it back, Shen Le thought silently.

Unlike the last memory, this time, I knew the detailed names, addresses, numbers, and places where they died...

If we follow the clues, it shouldn't take long to find the whereabouts, right?

"Old You?"

He picked up his cell phone and dialed a number. After only one ring, Lao You quickly picked up the phone:
"Boss! What can I do for you?——The tiger's body has not been sold out yet. Some of the main parts need to be processed before they can be sold at a high price. Please wait for a moment!"

"I can't say I gave you an order." Shen Le smiled. Ever since the last rescue mission, Lao You had been calling him boss and saying that he was the one who entrusted his life to him.

Of course, this kind of talk is just for show. The compensation due must still be given, and not a penny less.

Don’t you see, the children born in the Jia family receive monthly allowance, while Old You is still a monster flying freely outside!

However, since then, Shen Le felt more and more justified when asking Lao You to do things for him.

The division and sale of the tiger's body is entrusted to him. Now there is a new task, which can also be entrusted to him:

"There's no rush for Shanjun's matter. Here's what I'm saying. Help me check on two people. If there's no clue, you can directly ask the Special Affairs Bureau...

Just use my points to complete the task, and if they still refuse, just say it is related to finding the remains of the soldiers and sending them back to their graves."

After saying this, he flicked his fingers and sent seven or eight pictures in one breath, along with the names of the two soldiers, their team numbers, and the time and place of their sacrifice:
"This is a warrior relic I found in the tiger's lair. After repairing it, I got some clues. I still need to confirm it. Please pay attention to it!"

"Boss, don't worry, leave it to me!" Lao You agreed quickly. Of course. He dared to agree like this, and he was sure:

"The clues are so detailed, it would be unreasonable if we can't find them! - These are their own human warriors. How dare they fool around when you are so concerned!"

Shen Le didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Lao You, please stop being so outspoken!
Is it possible that I am also one of “them humans”!
It's my duty to care about it. If I don't care about it, I would be heartless!

The news about Shen Le spread to the Special Affairs Bureau and soon reached the top leaders. For Shen Le, the tigers were defeated and their nests were cleared. He waved his sleeves and left without taking a cloud with him.
The top brass of the Special Affairs Bureau could no longer ignore Shen Le's existence. They needed to check files, transfer personnel, and investigate everyone who had dealt with Shen Le, as well as everything he had done:

"I was a little reluctant about the Special Affairs Bureau at first, but now we can cooperate with them to a limited extent."

"I'm not used to the official behavior... We checked his exam papers and it's just appalling..."

"Character... I keep myself clean, I don't like to take advantage of others for no reason, I have to pay for charging... Of course, I also hate being taken advantage of by others..."

"His ideology... He doesn't care much about money. When he heard that a soldier had died and might be made into a ghost by the mountain king, he immediately agreed to go without even proposing any conditions..."

"His combat power... is strong. Very strong, or rather, his attack power is very strong. His defense and mobility may be a little weaker. Is this why he doesn't want to face Shanjun head-on?"

"My personality... I can only say that I am a homebody... I have been repairing old things at home for a month and I don't even want to go out..."

"Such collaborators must be well maintained!"

"How do we maintain it? Pull a separate wire for him, build a substation, and tell him to just come if he wants to charge?"

"It may be a bit troublesome to communicate with the power department... and that old house is close to the standard of a protected building. It may not be convenient to build a substation nearby?"

"In fact, what he needs most may be the status of a non-staff expert? After all, as a cultural relic restorer, if he can't pass the exam, he can't come into contact with cultural relics, which is simply an eternal pain..."

"You're going to get those experts? A student who just graduated half a year ago is given the status of a non-staff expert. We agree, but his teachers also need to agree!"

And his teachers... Shen Le himself graduated from a top 2 university, and his teachers were all top professors.

These experts and scholars are very strict and will not tolerate any flaws. If you don't have the knowledge, then you are not qualified. If you don't have the skills, then you are not qualified.

Want to be a non-staff expert?

Do you have enough ability? Even if you have abilities that we lack, you still have to meet a certain standard in terms of hard power and hard skills!
Moreover...the Special Affairs Bureau cannot suppress these experts and scholars...

Before the discussion came to a conclusion, Shen Le's request had already been passed down through the ranks to the top management. The researchers were overjoyed:
"That's great if he has a request! Do it for him! Do it quickly! - Don't deduct his points. This is our business in the first place. We should thank him for providing the clue!"

It was a huge undertaking to check the belongings of each of the bodies taken out of the tiger's lair, investigate their identities, verify their identities, and send them back for burial.

Even with the memories read out by Shen Le, we still have to go to the local area to look up missing persons data and check archives. We also have to extract DNA from the remains and match them with possible targets... In fact, most of them are not matched, like looking for a needle in a haystack...

Now Shen Le has provided clues to the identities of two people. That’s great. Let’s quickly investigate.

Gu Yulin and his friends, even Gu Yulin's uncle and his friends, were only exposed to relatively low levels and were unable to leverage cooperation at this level.

However, it is much more convenient for the top brass to use satellite locks, drones, and missiles to conduct cross-departmental investigations. It feels like going with the flow...

In less than a week, Shen Le received detailed feedback.

Fang Yu's identity has been confirmed. Based on his remains, the time of his death, and the activities of nearby teams and the deceased and missing persons during this time, it has been basically confirmed that he is the one.

As for Axin, an officer of this level, his death and burial are recorded in detail.

The Special Affairs Bureau followed the clues and even found Axin’s former comrades-in-arms and the memoirs left behind by them.

More than one person recalled that Ah Xin always carried a small mirror box with family photos inside, which he treasured like a treasure...

"Finally confirmed." Shen Le held the mirror box and breathed a sigh of relief. Although the evidence was still weak, he was able to report to Professor Lin:

"Teacher Lin, I found the original owner of this dressing box!"

"found it?!"

The old man pressed the armrest of the sofa and stood up suddenly. His frail body swayed and fell back into the sofa, his arms shaking violently:

"Finally found it?"

"Yes, I found it." Shen Le spread out various materials one by one. The Special Affairs Bureau sent them urgently, copies of old files, memories and notes of comrades, photos of Ah Xin's burial place...

The cemetery is peaceful and clean, with pine and cypress trees intertwined, the golden names on the tombstones sparkling, and the smiling faces of young people shining among them -

Although it is quite blurry, but by comparing it with the porcelain mirror box in Shen Le's hand, one can still vaguely see that it is somewhat similar to the family photo.

The old lady held a photo in her left hand and a photo in her right hand, comparing them over and over again.

As she watched, tears began to flow down her cheeks. She quickly moved the photo away to avoid her tears splashing onto it.
"So that's how it is, so that's how it is...Mom, you can rest in peace now, your son has been found..."

Shen Le took a deep breath. So, the old lady's mother was the original owner of this dressing box?

The girl who got married with the blessing of her whole family, the wife who greeted the news of her husband's death with grief, the mother who sent her son to pursue his ideals and never returned?

However, Professor Lin does not look like Ah Xin’s wife, the young woman named “Shu Lan”…

The age doesn't match, the last name doesn't match, and Professor Lin's husband and children don't match either...

"Thank you for your hard work." After a long time, the old lady let out a long sigh and relaxed completely.

Shen Le quickly got her some tissues, poured her some water, and brought a blood pressure monitor to measure her blood pressure, but the old lady shook her head to signal that it was not necessary:
"I'm fine... it's just that this has been my wish for many years... when my mother adopted me, there was no one else around her, and she didn't talk much about the past..."

She stared blankly at the photo in her hand, at the porcelain mirror box that Shen Le brought up, and at the several powder boxes, rouge boxes, and eyebrow pencil boxes lined up in a row.

The patterns above are different, but from the brushstrokes, the glaze colors, and every detail, it is clear at a glance that they are products of the same kiln, or even the same batch.

After a long while, she got up and went inside, took out a notebook and opened it, revealing the delicate drawings and a few yellowed old photos inside:
"The only thing she left me was this dressing box. She said she had given the things in the box to someone else, hoping that when her family returns in the future, they can recognize each other through this..."

The sketches in the notebook are vivid and lifelike, and they fit in perfectly with the patterns on the porcelain boxes. It is obvious that the painter at that time was also a master.

Although the old photos are dim, they also show from another perspective that these porcelain boxes were once a set with the dressing box:
"But they never came back, never came back... Especially this mirror box, it has been gone for too long, too long..."

Shen Le lowered his head in silence. He didn't know why the items in the dressing box were scattered. Professor Lin didn't tell him, so he had no way of guessing.

Perhaps, he will have to wait until the dressing box is completely repaired before he can know the answer and follow the clues to find Professor Lin’s lost relatives?
The old professor stroked the mirror box carefully and sighed leisurely:
"Can you accompany me to visit the grave? I want to see Ah Xin... and tell my mother..."
