Why Would an Aircraft Carrier Be Dispatched to Escort His Fishing Boat?

226: Chapter 226 Meng Po CriedJiang Chen smiled slightly, ”It’s fine. Can you let me through now?”

”Yes, Officer, but our Minister wants to see you, so I must escort you,” the policewoman said.

”Your Minister?”

”Yes, the Minister of the Air Police Department. Our department was formerly the Ministry of Transport.”

”Fine, but I need to go to Mengpo Street now.”

”I will only follow behind. I definitely won’t disturb you.”

”Alright!”

Jiang Chen believed her nonsense.

He drove the small fishing boat forward.

Before long, he was astonished to discover that dozens of aircraft were following behind, some in the shape of tigers, some as wolves, and others as black cats.

It was like an entire zoo.

Although the escort formation was a bit large, it had its benefits: the aircraft in front all scattered to avoid them.

[Everyone, move quickly! That small fishing boat is supposedly driven by a murderer, and is now being hunted globally by the Air Police Department.]

[What murderer? How come I heard it’s a spy planted on Earth by the Ascension Star people?]

[This formation is clearly escorting the person to the execution ground...]

The crowd discussed it, scattering in all directions, thinking Jiang Chen had made it onto a wanted list.

The small fishing boat traveled smoothly without obstruction.

When they were still a distance away from Mengpo Street, he stopped, and then he and Xue Yao jumped down directly.

This jump distance was a full thousand meters.

The following policewoman’s mouth widened so much that it could fit two tea eggs. She was stunned, ”This, this is at least a Level 1 Life Form!”

None of these Air Police were Level 1 Life Forms; the strongest among them was just a regular Gene Warrior. Seeing Jiang Chen and the other jump down, they nearly lost them and had to lower their aircraft to follow closely from above.

Jiang Chen and Xue Yao walked to the entrance of the Mengpo Soup specialty store.

Today was Monday, and perhaps because it was a workday, there weren’t many people at the entrance.

Inside, there was only an old woman sitting on a chair, wearing reading glasses and flipping through some ancient books.

This person was none other than Jiang Xiaoran.

Because she hadn’t become a Level 1 Life Form, time had left deep marks on her.

”Mengpo, one bowl of Mengpo Soup, please.”

A young man walked up to the counter.

Jiang Xiaoran didn’t even look up as she replied, ”Why?”

”The girl I love ran off with someone else, and I want to forget her.”

The young man replied, looking drunk.

Jiang Xiaoran had long since smelled the alcohol on him, so she replied, ”I’m not selling. Just go home and sleep it off.”

”Damn, what kind of Mengpo are you? You don’t even sell Mengpo Soup. Are you stupid?”

The young man cursed and walked away.

Mengpo didn’t look up and continued reading the ancient books.

There were many such young people who wanted to drink Mengpo Soup to forget after the slightest setback.

But she, Jiang Xiaoran, had basic principles when selling this memory-erasing Genetic Serum.

That was: you must have thought it through, and you must truly have pain that is impossible to forget.

Only then would Jiang Xiaoran choose to sell it.

Otherwise.

In most cases, Jiang Xiaoran would choose to turn them away.

Although this would reduce sales.

But precisely because of this, Jiang Xiaoran’s reputation spread, and more and more people chose to come here to purchase her Mengpo Soup...

Soon, someone else entered the store. The man said, ”Hello, may I have a bowl of Mengpo Soup?”

”Why?”

Jiang Xiaoran, as always, asked without looking up.

The man said, ”I have a friend who was a fisherman. He would go out to sea to fish and moonlight repairing air conditioners on aircraft carriers. During the time the ocean expanded, he sent his niece to Beiling City. His niece said, ’Uncle, you must come back alive.’ But in the blink of an eye, fifty years have passed, and they have yet to meet again...”

Jiang Xiaoran’s action of flipping the book paused slightly. She raised her head in disbelief.

She looked at the man before her, who was both familiar and strange, her vision becoming increasingly blurry.

”Uncle?”

Jiang Xiaoran stood up, her voice choked with sobs.

Ever since that day Jiang Chen sent her to Beiling City, they hadn’t seen each other again.

In the blink of an eye, fifty years had passed.

She hadn’t expected that after fifty years, her uncle would still have the same face, just slightly more mature, while she had already grown into an ugly old woman.

Her tears fell like beads from a broken string, and she felt extremely aggrieved.

Jiang Chen stepped forward, gently hugged her, and patted her shoulder, ”You’re a big star with hundreds of millions of fans online. If people see you crying like this, how embarrassing.”

”What big star? I’m just a seventy-year-old woman. I’m already dead,” Jiang Xiaoran said, wiping away her tears.

”Rest assured, I won’t let you die,” Jiang Chen promised her.

Jiang Xiaoran stared blankly at Jiang Chen, ”Uncle, are you already a Level 1 Life Form?”

”No, I am a Level 2 Lifeform. I don’t even breathe anymore, and neither does your aunt.” Jiang Chen pulled Xue Yao over.

”I know Aunt is at the peak of Level 1 Life Form, and there’s Haipeng and Qiu Zhi, they seem even more powerful... Sigh!”

Jiang Xiaoran sighed. Although she had also drunk life no. 1 and extended her life, she was completely ignorant about Qi and didn’t know how to absorb it, so naturally, she was slowly aging.

”Don’t be afraid, we are family,” Jiang Chen comforted her.

Xue Yao also said, ”That’s right, your uncle will find a way to let ordinary people become Level 1 Life Forms too.”

To date, most who could become Level 1 Life Forms had talent, like Haipeng and Qiu Zhi, who naturally knew how to absorb Qi.

Others had abundant resources, like those rich people who immigrated to the Mars Base, who could always find ways and slowly try by trial and error.

And Xue Yao was purely due to the stroke of luck of being struck by lightning.

In short, most people who stepped into Level 1 Life Form were extraordinary, and it was hard to replicate.

Even if Xue Yao wanted to help Jiang Xiaoran, she didn’t know how.

She couldn’t just take her around and get her struck by lightning, could she?

Most likely, she would be dead before they found a way to make her a Level 1 Life Form.

”If you can’t find it, that’s fine. Most people’s fate is like this. I have no regrets,” Jiang Xiaoran said, shaking her head with a smile.

The tears she just shed were purely because she hadn’t seen Jiang Chen for many years and suddenly felt the passage of time; otherwise, at her age of over seventy, it would be impossible for her to cry.

Jiang Chen was about to chat with her about how she had been all these years.

Just then.

A faint shouting from old men could be heard outside.

”Mengpo is crying!”

”That bastard actually made Mengpo cry!”

”That guy must be Mengpo’s first love from when she was little, probably a scumbag, which is why he made Mengpo cry.”

”Definitely. Mengpo is usually very calm; he must have done something heinous...”

”Hey, brother, first time seeing you? I’ve been pursuing Mengpo for two and a half years, and this is the first time I’ve seen you.”

”Newbie.”

A group of old men, holding sticks and clubs, walked in, cursing.

Jiang Chen looked at this group of people in astonishment. Where did they get the news that he had become a heinous scumbag?

”You’ve misunderstood; this is my uncle.”

”His whole family stopped breathing long ago, so don’t mess around.”

Jiang Xiaoran hurriedly explained, feeling annoyed.

As the star Mengpo with hundreds of millions of fans online, it was only natural to have some fanatic fans.

To prevent them from acting recklessly, she even revealed the identity that Jiang Chen’s entire family were Level 2 Lifeforms.
