Chapter 254 The Truth·Adoptive Father
"Ouch!"
Following a few complaints, the people who were communicating in the conference room prototype of the Reversal World looked at a line that suddenly appeared on the carpet in the middle.
Although Chen Xi subconsciously protected Chen An, it could not offset the discomfort caused by the twisting of space.
At this time, Chen An was moaning uncomfortably, and Zoroa and the others were also dizzy and paralyzed on the ground.
Milton sat aside in disgust and complained,
"Given your physical condition, why not find a few super-powered tethers to help you teleport a little more so that your body can adapt to this feeling first."
Chen An retorted unconvinced,
"You have been in human society for so long, haven't you adapted to a low-energy environment?"
"..."
Sensing the strange aura around them, the group silently raised their heads.
Only then did he realize that he was in a familiar reception room, and what was different from before was that there were many more people in this reception room.
Fortunately, these people were not hostile and just looked at them silently.
Chen Xi couldn't help but be startled as his eyes swept over everyone subconsciously.
"?"
Sensing the unnaturalness of the morning sun, Chen An subconsciously followed it and looked over.
This time, it was him who was stunned.
The young man who was being stared at by the two was confused when he saw them staring at him. He asked helplessly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"After being away for so many years, have you forgotten what you did back then?"
"I have forgotten my own children."
"No, I...uh...are you Chen An?"
Listening to others joking, the young man was obviously confused, but then he remembered something.
“…”
...
A few minutes later, Chen An and his party successfully sat among the crowd.
The young man in front of him also remembered that after completing the special commissioner assessment, his first task was to agree to the champion Lucario to adopt a child in his name.
It's just that this incident was so mundane compared to his subsequent undercover career that he had forgotten about it.
In order to sneak into the Night Eclipse team, the young man took the initiative to cut off all contact with the outside world. In addition, the alliance and his superiors worked together to erase his whereabouts. Naturally, he seemed to be "missing".
Looking at Chen An in front of him, the young man couldn't help but sigh,
"I always feel like I haven't been away for long, and the little peas that were less than one meter have already grown so big."
Looking at the two people who were about the same height, the young man stretched out his hand.
"By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Yu, and my code name is [Cangmang]. But just call me by my name. Don't call me dad. I can't stand it."
Chen An, who had no intention of calling daddy at first:...
Chen An shook hands with Chen Yu,
"Chen An, temporarily serve as [Yin Yu]."
Although Chen Yu and Chen An are nominally the adoptive father and son,
But this kind of relationship is really normal for the special correspondent who needs a "reasonable identity" here, and no one will take this kind of relationship seriously.
Although I’m not used to this kind of environment, everyone seems to be about the same age, so it’s not too awkward to chat.
(After all, An’an is really not 17 mentally, and people in this world age very slowly and look young)
After confirming that he was one of his own, several people around him also started chatting.
"So you were the one who entered [Cocoon] before?"
"Even if you are doing well on your own, aren't you?"
"You discovered the fairy elves?"
.....
When Xuan Ying came over with several figures, he saw Chen An and his party surrounded in the middle.
"What's happening here?"
After listening to Chen An's explanation, Xuan Ying sighed,
"Probably before [he] had time to give you the [key], the reverse space fluctuated, and you were ejected."
"The place where you were at that time corresponded to this conference room, so you appeared here."
After explaining Chen An's origins in a few words, Xuan Ying, who was about to close the door for a meeting, looked at the slightly confused Chen An and pointed to the other end of the corridor,
"If you want to go, go straight along this road, turn right and go out. No one will stop you."
"[He] should take the initiative to come to you later."
.....
Xuan Ying closed the conference room and ignored Chen An. After all, there were many people talking and the less communication, the better.
...
Following the path pointed by Xuan Ying, Chen An walked out of the building as expected.
What caught his eyes were two unexpected figures.
...
...
Regarding this line about adoptive parents:
Except that the first chapter mentioned that his parents have been missing for a long time and Chen An has no relationship with his adoptive parents,
The second mention was in Chapter 43 of Volume . It was mentioned that Chen An had problems with his parents’ memory.
It is also mentioned in the follow-up (Volume 168, Chapter ) that Chen An has been under the attention of senior officials since he was rescued.
It was hinted at that time that there was a problem with Chen An's adoption.
In addition, as mentioned in the truth chapter, the Elf Alliance needs children with [ordinary] status to come to the world.
It can be directly inferred from this that
The reason why Chen An was adopted was actually to allow [Chen An] to walk towards the bright road of [making a star] on his own without the help of his parents.
As for Chen'an's biological parents, the status of the adoptive parents does not allow them to do so. It is not because they don't care about this [airborne] child, but because their status does not allow it.
After all, if their traces are to be erased, they cannot have any sense of existence in reality. The more simply they are cut off from the outside world, the safer the relevant personnel will be.
...
Spoilers behind:
Apart from this nominal adoption, there is not much interaction between the adoptive father and Chen An, and the protagonist will continue to grow on his own.
