Xia Lei sat on the sofa “Dad, there are s I don’t understand We finally s”
Xia Changhe sat opposite Xia Lei “I kno is the time to tell you the truth”

Xia Lei couldn’t help interrupting “Ho did you join this FA Organisation?”
Xia Changhe gave a dry laugh “I ae One day a person cae and took me away but it was not the type of adoption you’d expect I was brought to Siberia and I underwent gruelling training there Children frolish, japanese, Israeli, Saudi… Orphans from all those countries you could see on a anisation of specialised, select members and I am one of many”
Xia Lei then understood the reason why he had never seen any grandparents
Xia Changhe continued, “I trained in Siberia for 15 years Many people died, and those who survived and passed the final test were sent back to their respective hoot to know yourthat period of time”
Xia Lei’s heart squeezed His one a little hazy

Xia Lei subconsciously touched the pendant of the necklace around his neck He had consumed 11 out of the 12 capsules - ould he attain if he took the last?
“I know you still have one” Xia Changhe looked at Xia Lei “When do you plan to eat it?”
Xia Lei thought for a bit and said, “I want to take it and I also want to knohat taking it will bring to me, but what I want to knowtoo and I know that they are the only capsules so I have no intention of eating it yet I also have questions If these were the only ones, then how did the AE Research Center get their hands on thehe was silent for a bit before he spoke “Huy yet These were excavated”
