Chapter 932 Traces!

One day, Ling Lan came to The w.a.n.g Shop again. The door of the shop was pulled down, leaving only a gap of 50cm.

Ling Lan bent down and walked in. There was no one in the shop. Ling Lan immediately walked towards the back of the shop without any hesitation.

There was a huge warehouse behind the shop. This was the works.p.a.ce for The w.a.n.g Shop. Different from the usual casual atmosphere of the shop, there were many strangers in the works.p.a.ce, making the scene quite bustling.

Grandpa w.a.n.g and w.a.n.g Qi squatted beside a mecha that was laid on the ground and seemed very busy. Little Aihua sat on one corner and focused on lubricating the new mecha components in front of her. She didn't realize that Ling Lan was here. During the past few days, Aihua would be waiting in the shop or sitting beside Grandpa w.a.n.g while listening to his stories.

The strangers heard some noises and turned around. When they saw Ling Lan, they were immediately on their guard. Grandpa w.a.n.g looked up and saw Ling Lan too. He smiled. "Jiang Hui, you're here. We're busy at the moment. You might have to wait a while for Little Aihua."

The strangers relaxed a little when they heard Grandpa w.a.n.g greeting Ling Lan.

Ling Lan nodded and sat beside Little Aihua. She watched as Little Aihua wiped the components skillfully.

Ling Lan was familiar with the maintenance of mechas. She realized that Little Aihua's technique was the standard technique used in the military. It wasn't some random technique learned from outside. This meant that the person who taught Little Aihua had been in the military before.

Ling Lan knew that Grandpa w.a.n.g was the one who taught w.a.n.g Qi and Little Aihua about mecha maintenance. Thus, Grandpa w.a.n.g had to be an outstanding logistician in the military once. With such skills, he would at least be a team leader even if he didn't have a high position in the military. His benefits from the military must be good. He would have a better life in the military if he didn't come to Planet Muyang and open a small mecha shop.

'Why was Grandpa w.a.n.g willing to give up the good life in the military and come to a primitive planet like Planet Muyang after he retired?' Without even asking, Ling Lan knew that Grandpa w.a.n.g was a man filled with stories and secrets. However, she was not interested in it.

Unfortunately, Little Four was interested. Hence, when he was searching for evidence of the corruption of the government on Planet Muyang, he did some research on Grandpa w.a.n.g too. He told himself that he was helping Boss to clear any potential dangers around him.

The name Grandpa w.a.n.g used on Planet Muyang was called w.a.n.g Baozhuang. He came to Planet Muyang 15 years ago. He was not a native.

Little Four was unable to find where w.a.n.g Baozhuang and w.a.n.g Qi came from. This made him even more curious about them. Someone was obviously trying to clean up w.a.n.g Baozhuang's past history.

But, no matter how powerful a hacker was, Little Four would be able to find traces of his doings. Very soon, Little Four found the information that was deleted. He realized that w.a.n.g Baozhuang's real name was Luo Yi. Luo Yi stayed in the 3rd Division from when he was 20 years old to 60 years old. 15 years ago, he suddenly applied to leave the army and then disappeared after that.

Luo Yi never got married. He had no descendants. That meant that w.a.n.g Qi was not his grandson. As for the person who cleared his traces, Little Four only managed to know that it was a high-ranking officer who was currently in the 3rd division. There was a lack of information so he wasn't able to find out who he was at this moment.

Little Four followed the clue of this high-ranking officer and realized that traces of Liu Aijun and Liu Aihua's father was cleared too. Little Four traced the information all the way back to the 3rd division and realized that their father was said to have died on the battlefield. However, there was something amiss. Why did they need to clear the details of someone who had died?

Ling Lan agreed with Little Four's a.n.a.lysis. Normally, people would only clear the traces of someone who was alive so that he wouldn't be found by anyone.

However, this could explain why Liu Aijun and Liu Aihua were not taken care of by the government. Their father's name was not in the military record so they weren't able to enjoy the benefits of being the family of a soldier.

Even if Mother Liu went to the government to ask for it, the government wouldn't believe her. They might think that Father Liu became a mercenary and fooled his family by saying that he went to the military.

Of course, Ling Lan had a wild thought that Liu Aijun and Liu Aihua were the children of her team leader, Liu Furong. Based on their age, it was highly likely. However, Liu Aihua told her that her father was called Liu Aiguo. So, this guess was just her being too paranoid.

After working for an hour, w.a.n.g Baozhuang finally finished his work. A man around 30 years old, who had been waiting at the side all these while, quickly enter the c.o.c.kpit. The mecha sat up and performed some simple actions.

"Uncle w.a.n.g, this is exactly what I wanted. Thank you." The person's voice came from the mecha. It was filled with excitement.

"It's not finished yet. The components had to be taken down and inspected again. If there are flaws, we need to change it. If not, we'll need to lubricate it too." w.a.n.g Baozhuang took a piece of cloth and wiped himself.

"I'll pa.s.s the rest to you. When can I take this mecha back?"

"You can take it the day after tomorrow. It won't affect your mecha compet.i.tion," w.a.n.g Baozhuang knew that these people earned money through this so he immediately replied to them.

"Fine. Thank you, Uncle w.a.n.g," the young man said politely.

"Yes, Uncles w.a.n.g. I heard that there is an advanced mecha warrior who came from some planet. He has already defeated many strong mecha operators from Planet Muyang. Brother Min is under huge pressure now," a younger man beside the young man said with a dark face.

"Since you decided to take part in the gamble, you'll have to face this day sooner or later. Also, if you want to go Mailer Fa, you must defeat the mecha operators from other planets. If not, Mai'er Fa won't give you any chances." Uncle w.a.n.g sighed. He looked at the young man who came down from the c.o.c.kpit. "Little Min, why can't you find a stable job? You're not young anymore."

"Uncle Liu said that if a man can't go to the military, he should become a mercenary and widen his perspective of the world. This is the only way one won't waste his life. If I didn't need to take care of my mother, I would have become a mercenary." The young man smiled gently. His eyes were filled with confidence. "Now it's okay if I can't become a mercenary. I can take part in underground gambles to take care of my mother. One day, I'll bring my mother to Mai'er Fa and let her live a good life."

Uncle w.a.n.g looked at Little Min's hopeful eyes and shook his head slightly. He couldn't bear to tell him that an advanced mecha warrior wasn't able to survive in Mai'er Fa. That year… forget it. Everyone has the right to choose their own future. He had no right to reprimand him.

Very soon, everyone left the shop. Little Aihua finished her work and left with Ling Lan after bidding farewell to Grandpa w.a.n.g and w.a.n.g Qi.
