It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

Shen He thought about it and decided to bring the other party back to the base, settle him down and find someone to check on the situation.

It wasn't too bad. He fainted because of the influence of "rust fog" - the level of "rust fog" outside the city was not something that people inside the city could withstand. It was similar to oxygen intoxication. It was easy to get into this situation without any protection. Fortunately, the symptoms were mild and could be suppressed with some medicine.

Under his care, within a few hours, the other party gradually woke up.

"Um...where is this?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 139 Women only affect my shutter speed

He Yuxia, who had just woken up, seemed a little confused and looked around blankly.

The temporary residence of the "Forsaken" was naturally not as comfortable as her original residence. It was just a simple house, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was shabby. After all, no one wanted to live here for the rest of their lives. Not far away was the Night Sin City. It would be better to dig more mines and reach the target as soon as possible.

But her focus was not on this. After looking around, she saw Shen He sitting aside and guarding.

"You, who are you..."

He Yuxia suddenly became alert, her mind became much clearer, and she shrank back.

"you're awake?"

Shen He came back to his senses after hearing this and quickly calmed her down, "Don't be nervous, young lady. I... am not a bad person."

"That's not necessarily true. Bad people always say they are not bad people."

He Yuxia remained alert.

"..."

Shen He was speechless. How should I respond?

Fortunately, Miss He Er seemed to have just had a stress reaction. She sat there for a while, completely regained consciousness, and sorted out the situation here.

"Is this the base of the Forgotten?"

She asked tentatively, "I remember that I seemed to be attacked by something, and then I lost consciousness...Did you save me?"

"When I saw the girl, she had fainted near the mine outside the station."

Shen He nodded, then shook his head. "As for an attack, it's unlikely. The doctor said that you inhaled too much "rust mist" in a short period of time, and your body couldn't adapt to it, so you fell into a coma... That's probably why you saw hallucinations."

This is true.

Even outside the city, there is no possibility of being attacked. Could there be wild beasts?

The answer is no. Most animals cannot survive in the "Rust Mist" and they do not mutate or anything. The only ones left are a small number who are kept in captivity as pets for meat. They are kept in Nightsin City and in the "Forsaken".

And the "Forgotten" would not be stupid enough to do anything out of line - although Zhao Yuan was not considerate in his actions, he would restrain his subordinates at this critical juncture, otherwise he would suffer the consequences. The same was true for the other second-in-commands who made the decisions.

Of course, it cannot be said that there are no such people who are brave enough to not fear death, but at least the woman in front of her has not encountered such a person.

"That's right..."

He Yuxia blinked and finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Then I really have to thank you, otherwise I would really die here without knowing why."

"You're welcome girl."

Shen He smiled and thought this silly woman was cute. "I haven't asked for your name yet, young lady? I can send you back later."

"He Yuxia."

Miss He Er did not hide it, "What about you?"

"...Luo Tian."

Of course Shen He couldn't use his real name, so he answered her using a fake name.

The fact is that he has been using a pseudonym since he came here, and only a small number of people know his real identity.

But he was also very surprised. Could this be the second daughter of "Shark Tooth"?

Although he had worked with He Yuqiang before, Shen He didn't know much about his second sister. His former partners didn't take her seriously...

The first impression the other person gave him was just one: simplicity.

He was also very sensitive to people's emotions and could see that He Yuxia was not a very mean person. No wonder she had no part in the previous infighting within "Shark Tooth". With her level of skill, it would be considered good if she wasn't eaten to the bone by others.

what.

"Master Luo."

He Yuxia smiled back, like a little white flower blooming on dirty ground.

What kind of name is this? It's so strange... Shen He complained a little but didn't care. He turned around and asked about other things, "Miss He is a noble lady of the consortium. How did she end up here alone?"

“…It’s not like I don’t have bodyguards.”

Hearing his question, He Yuxia felt a little embarrassed, "But I got rid of them after leaving the city... and then I got lost again, so..."

Ah this... Shen He frowned, thinking that you are really capable, "But what is Miss He doing out of town?"

"Photography and field trip."

He Yuxia looked around and pointed at the backpack lying on a chair nearby. "I've never been outside the city, so I wanted to go out and see if there are any good scenery to take pictures of... You can take a look, I took a lot of photos..."

"..."

Most people would probably think He Yuxia is crazy after hearing this. The city is not a paradise. Who would go out to collect ghost stories when they have nothing to do? Especially since you are not low-ranking and have money, if you really want something, wouldn't it be better to build an artificial scenery?

But Shen He was used to it. After all, he was the son of a large consortium. He knew people like He Yuxia very well. Especially people like her who were literary and artistic, oblivious to the world outside and always felt sad about the passing of time. There were quite a few of them among the high-level officials in Night City.

There were several such people among Tianhe's relatives and side branches. If I remember correctly, Xia Wuyou's aunt was one of them? No, she was a little different... Then there was Xu Shi's mother, Wen Rujin, a literary woman raised in the Feather Pen family. She was also very famous in Yecheng.

So he really didn't think there was anything wrong with He Yuxia's weird way of thinking.

Actually, there are some. "Then why did you get rid of your bodyguards? You see, something happened now. Fortunately, I found you, otherwise the consequences would be very serious."

"I didn't think that much..."

He Yuxia felt a little aggrieved. "I just thought they were annoying and did this. Who knew Chengwai thought differently from me..."

"… Never mind. I'm glad you're alright."

Shen He was completely speechless. Should he say that she was innocent or really stupid? He could only say that there were many intrigues in normal times, and when he encountered this type of person, he didn't know how to deal with it.

"Miss He, please have a good rest first. I'll find someone to take you back later. How long have you been out? I guess the people in Yecheng must be going crazy looking for you."

"Then there is Master Lao Luo."

He Yuxia smiled, "I really don't know how to repay you... You are the "Forgotten", right? Do you want me to talk to them and make it convenient for you to settle in the city? I can still do this kind of thing."

In her opinion, this should be the best reward for the "Forgotten", right?

Hearing this, Shen He's eyes suddenly lit up.

He actually didn't think too much about what he could do with He Yuxia. After all, she was really not important. At best, she was just a rich girl... Could it be that they were still holding her captive? Only a fool would do that.

But the other party's words did remind him that it was good to have such an opportunity. If he could return to the city without anyone noticing, he could do more things.

Not now, though.

"...That's not necessary. I didn't think about these things when I saved you."

So he declined politely and sighed with pretended regret, "The main thing is that I'm not alone. I'm considered a, uh, small boss here, right? There are still some people and things that need my care. I can't just ignore them and go to the city now. I'd better complete the quota honestly."

This is true. Before Shen Qin entered the city, the brother and sister had discussed that Shen He stayed in the base to avoid being exposed, and secondly to integrate these remaining "forgotten" so that they would have no scruples when taking action.

Isn't he doing that now? He is very good at this old job, but he is not as good as he was when he controlled "Spark" and "Disg" before. He has to wait and see.

"Really? Then I don't know how to repay you..."

He Yuxia felt a little disappointed when she heard this. "Or if you need anything in this regard, just tell me at any time?"

She still cares a lot about the life-saving grace and would feel guilty if she didn't repay it.

"...That's fine."

Shen He thought for a moment before nodding his head, half jokingly saying, "Maybe one day I can't mine anymore, and I'll have to rely on Miss He to save me."

"Okay."

Hearing what he said, He Yuxia nodded quickly, "Then let's change the contact method first? If you have anything, just contact me."

"But there can't be too many people. They may not listen to me..."

She didn't forget to add one more sentence.

"Don't worry, I will never embarrass Miss He."

Shen He expressed his understanding.

"Come to think of it, isn't it also hard for the 'Forsaken'?"

After talking about something serious, He Yuxia thought about it and asked, "We have to mine ores again, and the living environment is not good... Can you tell me more about it? I also want to know more."

"...What does Miss He want to hear about?"

Shen He did not refuse.

"It's good as long as it's true. I'll record it as material. Maybe I can use it in my future writing?"

He Yuxia asked her to bring her backpack, took out a pen and paper to take notes, "Can I also share it in the media to help you clear your reputation?"

"Ms. He still has this intention."

Shen He smiled faintly.

"is it not OK?"

He Yuxia frowned slightly, "Anyway, I think those 'imaginary' reports are too exaggerated, with mutant creatures, monsters and demons... If I hadn't seen them before, I would have let it go. Now that I have seen them, I naturally have to explain them clearly."

"Anyway, I don't think the person who saved me could be a bad person... I don't know why they reported it like that, but slander is always bad."

"Thank you very much, Miss He."

Shen He deeply agreed with this. In fact, he was not a "forgotten person", but his sister was. So when he saw those reports, he was quite indignant. He knew very well that it was a shady trick of the six major financial groups.

"It's just a favor to you."

He Yuxia smiled, "Actually, you can go and speak up yourself. If you can clarify something, that's fine. Anyway, I don't think you guys are willing to do that. The Forgotten have been here for a while, and I haven't seen anyone speak up for me."

Maybe someone said it but you couldn't see it... Shen He thought that this girl was still too naive, but he appreciated her kindness and told her roughly the real situation here.
