Is the Scum Worthy of Whitewashing?

"Okay." Xu Du agreed.

There was no reason to refuse. Xu Shirong was the captain after all, and it was right for him to guide his new deputy team on how to assist in the management.

Xu Shirong smiled and nodded, then looked down at his watch: "Oh, it's almost time. I have made an appointment to have lunch with Yingying today... Then, see you in the afternoon, Xu Du."

Xu Du watched his hurried back disappear outside the gate, and withdrew his gaze, he found that Song Mingchu looked at himself with a weird expression.

"Why look at me like that?" Xu Du raised his eyebrows.

"You are so dear to me." Song Mingchu shook his head, "No matter how smart you are, Xu Shirong's old fox is not a good match, you..."

He was worried for his own good, Xu Du did not intend to explain, but smiled at him: "Don't worry."

He stretched out his hand, intending to pat Song Mingchu's shoulder, but he was not tall enough, so he withdrew his hand.

This body seems to be taken advantage of by others.

After separating from Song Mingchu, Xu Duwu spent a while and went to Xu Shirong's office as agreed.

"Here?" Xu Shirong raised his head from the file on the desk, and smiled at him sideways.

At this time, a pair of gold glasses was put on the bridge of his nose, and his originally gentle face was even more refined.

The team information that had just been sorted out, a thick pile of them, was handed to Xu Du's hands.

"These are all detailed records of the team and the players, you can take them back carefully." Xu Shirong said, "Or, I can explain to you slowly, anyway, I have time in the afternoon."

Xu Du casually flipped through the paper in his hand: "It's okay, I'll take it back and look at it. Presumably the captain still has a lot to do, so I won't bother."

"Why is it so busy?" Xu Shirong smiled and shook his head. "Speaking of which, I am actually very interested in you... If you are not in a hurry, then sit down and we can talk slowly."

Xu Du wanted to know what he was going to say, so he sat down on the sofa.

"You are the most powerful kid I have ever seen. Speaking of which, Yingying is only two years younger than you, but it's a huge difference." Xu Shirong spoke slowly.

"Thank you for the compliment." Xu Du answered lightly.

"You must have heard a lot of words of appreciation, but you know what, I don't just appreciate you." Xu Shirong said, "Sometimes, I have an illusion that we seem to be very similar."

"..." Xu Du curled his lips without a trace.

Xu Shirong sighed slightly: "But, I'm not as smart and mature as you. When I was seven or eight years old, I was still doing some stupid things... Then I joined the expedition and passed by death many times. This is where I am now. This step, so many years have passed in a flash."

"Captain Xu, what do you want to say?" Xu Du asked.

The man talked awkwardly, and suddenly began to recall the past, which was really annoying.

Xu Shirong smiled suddenly: "What I want to say is the similarity between us. I heard my father say that you smuggled from a remote base to Base A. It is said that you had a hard time before. My mother is dependent on each other... I am the same. I have no father since I was a child, and my mother left me early and lived a life like a dog—different from those who were born high above all, everything that I can get must depend on my own. Work hard in exchange, or you will have nothing."

"You said, here, is it between us to understand each other better?"

Xu Du understood.

This guy wants to win him.

He seems to be very good at buying people's hearts. Those who climbed into the elite team step by step were basically poor and dead, with only their lives left, relying on loneliness and courage to go against the current, advocating strength, and hating status. These remarks must be said by Xu Shirong to every player with a similar life experience, in exchange for the other's approval and dependence with empathy.

But Xu Shirong, who is Yimin's son-in-law, is also the captain of the elite team, under one person and above ten thousand people, still working so hard to manage, it seems that the ambition is really not small.

He wants to replace it?

dream.

Xu Du's eyes were slightly red: "It turns out that the captain is the same as me... I had some misunderstandings before. I was only a captain who was a soft-boiled man. I was in high position by nepotism. I didn't expect to have such a sighing past."

The smile on Xu Shirong's face froze.

But Xu Du's words were really nothing wrong, his expression was sad, but a little bit of a child's grievances and regrets. Although the words sounded harsh, he used the past tense, which was not easy to pursue.

Xu Shirong just wanted to bring Xu Du to his camp, and it would be better to train him as a cron.

Originally, Xu Du was quite apprehensive by He Yimin and planned to get rid of it secretly. However, he actually came back alive and completed the task very well. One person could be worthy of a team. Even Xu Shirong had to look at him with admiration.

He didn't expect this kid to be so powerful.

He Yimin had previously criticized him in private. Because of Xu Du's existence, his brilliance was dimmed.

However, Xu Shirong considers himself a sober and sensible person. Compared to his hatred of Xu Du, he agrees with Xu Du's value. To be one step closer to what he thought in his heart.

Although He Yimin is still a wise leader, he is not ruthless enough, and the benevolence of a woman himself also escapes from the superiority of being not born in a favorable environment. Even though he spent the effort to form an expedition team and recruit those from humble backgrounds, they are still closer to Xu Shirong, who is of similar background, and he always feels alienated from He Yimin.

Isn't even the child in front of me the same? No matter how smart he is, he will never get rid of the dominance of the dark side of the human heart.

Xu Shirong thought about it, with a slight smile on his lips.

In this way, Xu Du took refuge in Xu Shirong on the surface, and got the support of the captain. As a deputy team, he managed the team without a lot of obstacles.

Of course, all the members of the elite team were still unconvinced with Xu Du. The seven or eight-year-old children commanded the many older players, and no one could lose the face.

Xu Du wasn't in a hurry, but did his responsibilities in peace and quietly, paying attention to Xu Shirong's every move by the way.

Soon there were several missions. Xu Du arranged the defensive medicine and strategy properly. After several times, the mission went smoothly, and no team member was killed.

At this time, everyone realized that Xu Du had a very strong ability, enough to be worthy of this position.

It disappeared a lot.

When he was not on a mission, Xu Du was not idle either, and spent most of his time researching new drugs in the laboratory on the base.

There are still many shortcomings in defense medicines, time is a problem, and the effect on different alien creatures fluctuates up and down.

He doesn't have the ability to make medicine, but the memory left by the original owner is still there. Xu Du's learning ability is very strong, and he can continue to study with his own ability long ago.

This day finally had a new breakthrough. After Xu Du put the enhanced version of the drug sample in the cold storage, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't been home for a while.

An Rou must miss him very much.

Xu Du simply cleaned up and walked towards the house.

However, he was followed.
