Knight: My Thunder Armor was taken in by Gangen Xinguo

Almost instantly, Gangen stood up quickly, his face full of anticipation.

"It looks like we have guests. Every guest has his or her own story."

She walked towards the door.

As the door opened, a lady who looked to be in her thirties walked in.

Her face was filled with anxiety and uneasiness. "I... need help."

"Don't be anxious, speak slowly."

Gangen's voice seemed to have a soothing effect, and Wu Lingyang and Miyin also noticed the tension around the newcomers.

The lady calmed down a little and sighed, "My daughter Xiaoyu has refused to go to school recently. She said... there is a 'shadow' following her in school, but no one can see it."

At this time, Wu Lingyang secretly glanced at the umbrella, thinking that it might come in handy.

Gangen looked at Wu Lingyang and Miyin seriously, "Okay, Wu Lingyang, it seems that this is your first mission. It's very simple, right?"

Wu Lingyang and Miyin exchanged encouraging glances and felt a little excited.

Miyin gave the lady a comforting smile, "Don't worry, Wu Lingyang will definitely be able to complete the character."

At that moment, Wu Lingyang understood in his heart that he was not simply looking for answers here, but was gradually intertwining with other lives.

He was looking forward to the upcoming adventure, because in this all-around house, everything seemed possible.

Wu Lingyang and Miyin walked out of Gangen’s shop, and the sunlight shone on their faces through the thin clouds.

Wu Lingyang felt a little uneasy. He turned his gaze to Miyin. Those clear and bright eyes seemed to give him a little strength.

"Can we really help?"

He spoke hesitantly, with a mixture of anticipation and uneasiness in his heart.

"Of course,"

Miyin patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Remember, we are here to help, not to perform any special skills. As long as you put your heart where the other party needs you, there will definitely be unexpected results."

Wu Lingyang nodded, feeling somewhat relieved.

The two took the bus to the address provided by the client, which was an old residential building. It looked a bit shabby, but it was full of the breath of life.

"This is it."

Miyin said softly, leading Wu Lingyang up the stairs.

They rang the doorbell at the door, and soon the door opened, revealing a pretty little girl.

She was wearing a simple blue dress, but there was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

"Xiaoyu?"

Wu Lingyang asked tentatively.

Xiaoyu nodded but didn't say anything.

Her mother came out of the house and smiled, "Thank you for coming."

Wu Lingyang noticed that Xiaoyu was huddled slightly behind her mother, obviously a little nervous about the arrival of a stranger.

Miyin bent down and said softly to Xiaoyu: "My name is Miyin, this is Wu Lingyang, we are here to help you solve your problem."

Xiaoyu looked at her, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes, but she was still a little hesitant.

Beside her, her mother gently held her hand and said, "Xiaoyu, would you like to talk to them?"

Xiaoyu hesitated for a while and finally nodded.

Wu Lingyang and Miyin looked at each other and felt a little comforted.

They sat on the sofa in the living room. Xiaoyu's mother poured them a few cups of tea, then sat aside quietly to give her daughter time to express herself.

"Can you tell us about 'Shadow'?"

Miyin asked gently.

Xiaoyu lowered her head, squeezed the puppet in her hand, and said softly, "It's scary. It seems to always be following me, but I can't see it."

"When did it start?"

Wu Lingyang asked, trying to make his voice sound relaxed.

"In elementary school, a few months ago."

She raised her head, revealing a pair of innocent big eyes, "I'm so scared every day."

Wu Lingyang nodded, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.

He thought back to his childhood, the unexplained fears and the helplessness he had to face alone.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the umbrella, perhaps it could bring some comfort to Xiaoyu.

"Would you like to see a very special umbrella?"

He asked mysteriously, with a gleam in his eyes.

Xiaoyu widened her eyes slightly and nodded curiously.

"Wait a bit."

Wu Lingyang took out the umbrella he got from Gangen and opened it like a magic trick.

There is a starry sky pattern painted on the umbrella, which seems to be able to attract all people's attention.

"This is the umbrella of the mind. It can help you block out the things you don't want to see."

As he spoke, he handed the umbrella to Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu took the umbrella, looked up at Wu Lingyang, then at Miyin, and slowly opened the umbrella.

She looked up at the star pattern and seemed no longer so frightened.

"Is it really possible?"

Xiaoyu asked in a low voice, with a hint of hope in her eyes.

"of course."

Miyin smiled and nodded, "This umbrella will accompany you. As long as you believe in yourself, it will always support you."

11. A heartwarming commission (asking for flowers)

Xiaoyu lowered her head and said softly, "Thank you."

A small smile gradually appeared on her face, as if the sunshine had dispelled the shadow in her heart.

Seeing this scene, Wu Lingyang and Mi Yin both felt warm in their hearts. They knew that although the mission had not been fully completed, it was a good start.

In this small piece of warmth, they all felt the beauty of the interweaving of life.

The last rays of the setting sun fell on the windowsill, filling the room with a warm orange glow.

Wu Lingyang and Miyin sat next to Xiaoyu, accompanying her quietly.

Xiaoyu quietly stroked the handle of the umbrella, as if it was her newfound sense of security.

After a while, Wu Lingyang broke the silence.

He whispered, "Xiaoyu, what's your favorite color?"

This question seemed very sudden. Miyin was slightly stunned, while Xiaoyu raised her head, tapped her lips with her fingers and thought for a while, then said shyly: "Blue, like the starry sky on the umbrella."

Wu Lingyang nodded, and a warm feeling spread in his heart.

“Blue is a beautiful color, it makes people feel calm.”

As he spoke, his eyes looked over the windowsill, as if he saw some distant and peaceful place.

“Perhaps we all need such a space to calm our minds.”

Xiaoyu was silent for a while, then said softly: "I also hope that I can become as calm and firm as Blue."

There was a rare firmness and courage in her tone.

"You've been very brave, Xiaoyu."

Miyin came over and put her arm around Xiaoyu's shoulders. "To dare to share your story is a manifestation of courage. Sometimes the things you are afraid of are just a shadow that has never seen the sun."

Xiaoyu's cheeks turned slightly red, and she lowered her head embarrassedly, but a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

At moments like this, it seemed as if she finally began to believe that fear was not forever invincible.

Wu Lingyang stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the darkening sky in the distance.

"Why don't we make an appointment and go to the park together?"

He suggested, "There are large meadows and high blue skies there, which may make you like blue more."

Xiaoyu raised her head, with stars twinkling in her eyes.

For the first time, she offered, "How about the weekend? I want to take a walk."

"of course can."

Wu Lingyang smiled and said that he had never felt so at ease.

Miyin also nodded in agreement, as if they were already looking forward to that sunny weekend.

They all knew that this meeting was not only to share the beautiful scenery, but also to regain the peace of mind and the courage to do so.

Xiaoyu looked down at the spiritual umbrella and a real smile appeared on her face again. She felt that she was not so scared anymore.

"Thank you. I will try my best."

She said softly, with a determined gleam in her eyes.

There was a gentle power in the air. They all knew that everything had just begun, but this was beautiful enough.

The weekend sunshine shines through the green leaves onto the ground, bringing mottled light and shadows.

Wu Lingyang, Miyin and Xiaoyu walked into the park together. In front of them was an open grassland, which looked particularly peaceful under the sunshine.

"Xiaoyu, look there's a slide over there, let's go take a look!"

Yayin suggested, her tone full of excitement.

Xiaoyu looked in the direction of the slide with an eager look in her eyes, but she was still a little hesitant.

Wu Lingyang noticed her expression and said softly, "Don't be afraid, we are always by your side."

The three of them slowly approached the slide, and Wu Lingyang began to find ways to make Xiaoyu happy.

"You know what? There's a joke that goes like this - why can't you stand on a bicycle? Because it... can't 'stand'!"

He struck an exaggerated pose, deliberately imitating the look of a bicycle falling over.

Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing out loud, covering her mouth, her curved eyebrows reflecting joy.

Miyin also burst into laughter: "Lingyang, are you trying to make me laugh to death? Your actions are so funny!"

They continued to move forward, the sunlight shone on Xiaoyu's face, and her smile was as bright as a blooming flower.

Such weekend time seemed to let her unload the burden in her heart, making her feel relaxed and comfortable.

"Want to hear another one?"

Seeing Xiaoyu's happiness, Wu Lingyang immediately continued, "A man stood on a scale and saw that he had gained weight, so he asked, 'How can I not gain weight?' The scale said - get off quickly and you will not be fat anymore."

This time, Xiaoyu laughed even louder and even clapped her hands: "How funny! This scale is so smart!"

The three of them were laughing and playing on the green grass, and the people around them seemed to be infected by their joy and also smiled.

Miyin leaned close to Xiaoyu and whispered, "Look, your laughter is brighter than the sun."

Xiaoyu felt the warmth and support from her friends, and the wall in her heart that prevented her from exploring new things seemed to be slowly melting away.

"I found that I am not so scared anymore when I am with you guys."

A warm current surged through her heart, and her eyes became gentle yet firm.

12. Gangen Xingguo: You are really handsome and kind-hearted (asking for flowers)

Wu Lingyang patted Xiaoyu on the shoulder: "So, we have to continue to experience and feel life, right?"
