Chapter 148 Undercurrent
Looking at everyone's surprised eyes, Chu Yi swallowed all the rice in his throat with twitching eyes, and said with relief: "Didn't you notice that those patients were all children?"

Hong Luan laughed at Chu Yi's words: "So you are not a child anymore?"

"That's not what I meant." Chu Yi waved his hand, "These teenagers are not strong enough, and of course they have no power to fight back under the torture of the old syndrome.

But I am different. I am blessed by the God of War. After the battle in Huaguo Mountain, I also possess the body of the God of War. Even the ordinary legendary pets may not be as strong as me.

At least from my experience over the past three years, the old syndrome does have an impact, but it is not as big as you think.

Including today, my appetite suddenly increased. I ate so much rice but I didn’t feel like my life was wasted. Instead, I felt more powerful.”

"I understand." Liang Huan pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose with a sharp look. "For any disease, the toxicity cannot be discussed without considering the dosage. Although the Old Syndrome is troublesome, it is not a terminal illness for Chu Yi now. At most, it will cause some trouble to his daily life."

"That's what I mean." Chu Yi immediately nodded in agreement.

Hong Luan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression remained serious: "We still can't be too careless. After all, this is not an ordinary disease. It may worsen at any time. You should report your condition once a day from now on. If there are any new changes, you must tell us immediately."

"I understand." Chu Yi made an OK gesture, "That's it, Principal, Doctor Liang, I still have to continue eating, I'm really sorry to bother you today."

Chu Yi waved and said goodbye, then hung up the phone.

"Are you really alright?" Lin Siyao's expression was full of doubt. "Why don't we go to a hospital?"

"Really? I feel really good right now. Eating makes me full of energy!"

Chu Yi waved to the waiter and said, "Can I trouble you to bring another bucket?"

"Of course." The waiter was waiting for Chu Yi to serve him. He was quite curious about how many buckets of rice this young man could eat today.

At this time, Lei Zheng suddenly came up and said, "Everyone has finished eating and returned to the dormitory building. What are you still doing here?"

"Report to the team leader, I'm not full yet." Chu Yi said with a smile.

Lei Zheng lowered his head and saw an iron bucket with a lot of rice grains stuck to the inner wall next to Chu Yi. He said with a smile: "Don't tell me you ate a whole bucket of rice by yourself."

Chu Yi replied calmly: "More than just this bucket, I feel like I can eat another bucket!"

As he was speaking, the waiter had already pushed the second bucket of rice over.

Then, Chu Yi scooped the rice into a bowl under Lei Zheng's surprised gaze and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.

"You have a good appetite." Lei Zheng crossed his arms and asked Lin Siyao curiously, "Has his appetite always been so exaggerated?"

Coming from a military background, he had seen many big eaters in the army. They usually ate out of bowls, and if they ate noodles, they had to count them by kilogram.

But he had never seen anyone use a basin as a container for rice.

If it weren't for his image, Chu Yi would probably just start working with the food bucket in his arms.

Lin Siyao was stunned by the question, then showed a helpless smile: "Being able to eat is a blessing, after all, it is the time for growth."

With this answer, people who don’t know the relationship between the two would think that Lin Siyao is Chu Yi’s mother.

"By the way, team leader, I may have to ask for leave and go out for a while. I will probably be back before dinner."

Chu Yi raised his head, and with puffy cheeks, he submitted an application to go out.

Lei Zheng glanced at Lin Siyao next to him and immediately smiled knowingly: "I see, the sooner you go, the sooner you can return."

If other students asked for leave, it would definitely not be so easy.

At least they have to emphasize the discipline several times, then agree on a time to return to the team, and even have to sign some kind of guarantee or something.

But Chu Yi definitely won't be needed here.

First of all, we have informed the higher-ups that within the scope of discipline, we should give this child the most preferential treatment possible.

Lei Zheng guessed that this should be what Chu Yi earned in exchange for the merit he had achieved three years ago. As long as it was not an excessive request, he could turn a blind eye.

In addition, perhaps due to his profession, he also admired this mature child with a spirit of dedication and sacrifice, and he naturally had some good feelings towards him.

So after Chu Yi made the request, Lei Zheng agreed without even thinking about it.

No matter what, he has an adult sister by his side, so why would you be afraid that he would get lost?
"Then be careful and come back soon."

Lei Zheng patted Chu Yi on the shoulder, turned around and went downstairs.

After Lei Zheng left, Lin Siyao asked Chu Yi curiously: "Where are you going later? You don't want to go shopping with me, do you?"

"If you want to go shopping, I can accompany you first." Chu Yi said without raising his head.

"So it's something serious." Lin Siyao curled her lips in disappointment. She thought Chu Yi had finally come to his senses and would think of going out shopping with her after finally coming to Paris.

It turned out that there was no such plan at all, she was just thinking too much.

"Business is more important. It doesn't matter whether we go shopping or not." Lin Siyao said expressionlessly. He thought it would be better to wait until the game was over before he could take the initiative to drag Chu Yi out.

Expecting this kid to take the initiative is like wishing to see a iron tree bloom.

"I bought an emperor-level pet egg from Ji Chen, but I happened to be leaving for Paris when I got it, so I didn't have time to hatch it in China."

Chu Yi took out a schoolbag and placed it in front of Lin Siyao: "But there must be an institution in Paris that can hatch eggs. You know I am always impatient, so I must want to hatch the pet and sign the contract as soon as possible."

"The blood of an emperor who has no master?" Lin Siyao was surprised. "Ji Chen is willing to sell such a good thing to you?"

After saying that, Lin Siyao immediately responded: "I almost forgot, you still have treasures like peaches. It's not difficult to take out a few to exchange for the Emperor's pet eggs. By the way, what kind of pet is this, and what are its attributes?"

"Gluttonous pig, space system." Chu Yi's rice-eating project was gradually coming to an end, and he had emptied the full bucket of rice without realizing it.

"Taotie Pig, this pet is quite rare. Is it a hybrid of Taotie and pig?"

Lin Siyao recalled carefully, but in the end he did not find any memory related to the Taotie Pig: "Is it the Emperor's pet egg? Be careful not to be deceived."

Chu Yi answered seriously: "Ji Chen's family would not lie to me, and they have asked a professional organization to test it."

"We'll know once it hatches. I hope there's no problem." Lin Siyao said without comment.

Three minutes later, Chu Yi put down the rice bowl and spoon, and wiped the oil and rice grains from his mouth with satisfaction: "It's almost done, let's go to the hatchery."

"Are you full?" Lin Siyao looked at the pile of pots and pans in front of him, feeling astonished. "I should be half full, which will last for a while." Chu Yi rubbed his belly and said with a sense of satisfaction.

"Then next time we come to the restaurant, I must make sure you eat your fill." Lin Siyao couldn't help laughing and then went to the front desk to pay for the meal.

Although Chu Yi ate a lot, and it was a top-notch restaurant in the Olympic Village, the bill was not small.

But to Lin Siyao, this amount of money is even more than a drop in the bucket.

If Chu Yi continues to eat like this, the worst that can happen is that she buys a big hotel.

By then, the hotel will serve Chinese food on the first floor, French food on the second floor, American fast food on the third floor, and Japanese food on the fourth floor. There will be new dishes every day, and only he will be served, so he can eat whatever he wants.

Of course, Chu Yi was unaware of Lin Siyao’s plan, otherwise he would have been moved to tears.

"By the way, what is the taxi app called in France? Uber?" Chu Yi took out his mobile phone and wanted to search for any useful taxi apps in the local area.

"No need to bother, someone will come to pick us up." Lin Siyao said with a smile as he stood on the roadside outside the Olympic Village.

Soon, a Rolls-Royce slowly drove in front of the two people.

An old man in a suit and tie got off the car. He had an unruly ponytail and looked quite handsome.

When the handsome old man saw Lin Siyao, he greeted him in French, then respectfully opened the back door and invited the two to get in.

"Where did you find a driver with such treatment?" Chu Yi asked curiously after getting in the car.

"My father has businesses in many countries and knows many business partners. I can just call any uncle and a car will come."

Lin Siyao spoke while lowering her head to read the message, probably to thank the uncle who sent her the car.

Chu Yi also sighed: "The old saying is right, the road will be easier when you have more friends."

Lin Siyao put down his phone and said, "By the way, I've found an incubation station for you. You can use it directly when you get there. You don't have to wait in line."

Chu Yi was shocked: "You also have an uncle in the incubation station?"

Lin Siyao shrugged: "Not really, but this kind of thing can cost some money."

Chu Yi suddenly realized.

The incubator that Lin Siyao booked is called the Herrera Incubator, one of the best brands in France, specializing in the incubation, feeding, care and training of pets.

However, large incubation stations usually consume huge amounts of energy to operate. For safety reasons, they are usually located in sparsely populated areas in the suburbs.

But now it is difficult to find sparsely populated areas in the suburbs of Paris because millions of refugees have poured in.

In addition to those from the Middle East, there are also those from North Africa.

The former was done by America, and then its accomplice Europe suffered greatly.

As for the latter, it is entirely France's own fault.

As the local emperor of North Africa, France has committed many sins there. Correspondingly, refugees from North Africa have of course also come here along the way.

However, with the exception of Egypt in North Africa, which has a long heritage and considerable strength, the beastmasters in other countries have little combat effectiveness.

So those who come here are a bunch of complete refugees. They don't work, don't follow the rules, like to mess around in the city, and when they see the police, they hide in the refugee camps outside the city and can escape pursuit by taking a few detours.

The good news is that the refugee camps in North Africa are located west of Paris, which is a centralized treatment area for domestic waste and sewage. The environment is poor, the people are vicious, and it has bred countless snakes, insects, rats, ants and evil.

In comparison, the Middle Eastern refugee camps to the east appear much cleaner and tidier.

Although there is still a risk of encountering crime, the security team under Saladin will provide timely assistance, so the probability of saving one's life is still very high.

And in an effort to obtain French citizenship sooner, Middle Eastern refugee camps have recently stepped up patrols and management and crime incidents have plummeted.

As long as you are not here alone late at night, there is a high probability that nothing will happen.

However, a Rolls-Royce appearing on a suburban street would seem a bit eye-catching.

In addition, the road was not smooth, and the driver could not drive too fast. Gradually, a large group of men with burning eyes gathered around the car.

The driver was not at all panicked by this situation. He just stepped on the brakes, took out a badge from the cabinet and stuck it on the hood of the car.

Chu Yi stretched his neck to take a look and found that the pattern on the badge was a golden bee.

Oddly enough, after seeing the badges clearly, a few refugees immediately said a few words to their companions, and then everyone dispersed.

"What's that saying?" Chu Yi asked Lin Siyao in surprise, "Can bees be used to ward off evil spirits in France?"

"It's not an exorcism, young man." The handsome old driver said in standard Mandarin, "It's the emblem of the Bonaparte family. With this emblem, you can travel freely anywhere in France, even in a place where foreigners gather."

"Bonaparte...Napoleon Bonaparte?!" Chu Yi widened his eyes.

Needless to say, Napoleon is one of the greatest emperors in Europe. Although he failed in the end, his legacy, the Napoleonic Code, still plays a huge role today.

This was a great emperor who almost became the Qin Shi Huang of Europe. He fought countless battles in his life and defeated the anti-French alliance that united most of Europe several times.

Unfortunately, the great Queen became arrogant and chose to launch a war against the Russian bear in the east. In the end, she was defeated and the French Empire collapsed.

The same thing happened a hundred years later. Germany also had a strong man who conquered most of Europe. At the peak of his career, he declared war on the Soviet Union, but was ultimately defeated.

Of course, although he failed, it does not affect the greatness of the emperor.

But Chu Yi didn't expect that his descendants still have such a big presence now.

Just a family emblem can become a pass that allows unimpeded travel throughout France.

If the current patriarch of the Bonaparte family were to come forward, how terrifying would the influence be?
"So Uncle Lin also did business with the French royal family?" Chu Yi asked curiously in a low voice.

"There is no royal family in France anymore. The only noble family is the Bonaparte family, but they are just in a more detached position, just like the Hohenzollern family in Germany."

Lin Siyao's answer made Chu Yi nod as if he suddenly understood something.

In fact, he didn't understand anything, but this made him look like he was listening carefully.
