Urban Super Soldier King-Chapter 905: Gao Zhitao’s Childhood Amnesia

Gao Zhitao knew that Xiang Yu had taken out Ren Baohe, so he quickly told Xiang Yu to go find Grandpa.

This matter could be either big or small. If someone grabs hold of it, then it’s a big deal. If no one pays attention, it’s nothing.

Now the incident about a bomb in the shopping mall is causing quite a stir, and many people are focusing on finding the killer.

Kong Shenghui from the provincial department has also expressed on television that the culprit will definitely be caught within two weeks.

Now that Xiang Yu has dealt with the killer, Gao Zhitao was worried that this matter might involve Xiang Yu, so he wanted him to quickly go and discuss it with Grandpa.

However, Xiang Yu shook his head and refused. This matter ends here. He can’t let the police get involved anymore. After all, the police represent the national institution. If the Falcon Organization finds out that Ren Baohe died at the hands of the police, then things would get serious.

"Don’t worry, nothing will happen to me," Xiang Yu said confidently.

Seeing Xiang Yu so confident, Gao Zhitao also nodded quickly. For some reason, he naturally trusted Xiang Yu.

"It’s too stuffy in here. Why don’t you help me outside for a walk?" Gao Zhitao chuckled.

This guy just can’t sit still. If you leave him cooped up here every day, he’d be miserable.

Xiang Yu looked at his body wrapped in bandages and couldn’t help but laugh. This guy is a real oddball. Even injured like this, he still wants to go out and have fun.

"You stay here. How about I find a girl for you?" Xiang Yu whispered mysteriously.

Upon hearing this, Gao Zhitao immediately burst into laughter and quickly nodded, "Good brother, I’ve been waiting for you to say that."

After saying this, Gao Zhitao cautiously looked outside, seeing that his grandfather hadn’t returned, and urged Xiang Yu to go quickly.

"Wait here," Xiang Yu said with a smile before heading outside.

Xiang Yu, of course, wouldn’t actually find a girl for him. He was just taking the opportunity to leave.

Outside, just as Xiang Yu was about to turn and leave, he saw Gao Mantang leaning calmly against the wall.

Xiang Yu awkwardly smiled, knowing that Gao Mantang had probably overheard what he said to Gao Zhitao earlier.

"Don’t worry, I won’t get involved in you young people’s matters," Gao Mantang quickly said.

Xiang Yu just coughed lightly without saying anything, looking up at him and saying, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first."

"Walk with me," Gao Mantang suddenly said.

Xiang Yu didn’t know what he wanted, but he was sure it wouldn’t harm him, so he nodded.

The two walked from the upper floors to the back garden of the hospital without saying a word. Xiang Yu didn’t ask much.

"Thank you," Gao Mantang suddenly said while walking ahead.

Gao Mantang, with his head full of white hair, seemed somewhat lonely walking in front.

Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment but still said nothing, just following behind.

"Zhitao’s father disappeared many years ago. He grew up with me. Although he seems cheerful every day, he’s actually a child with a hard life. He often cried at night, calling out for his father even in his dreams."

At this point, Gao Mantang suddenly stopped, turned to Xiang Yu, and said, "This child has never had a true friend before, but he seems to like you a lot."

Xiang Yu couldn’t help but feel emotional. To outsiders, Gao Zhitao came from a military family, had a good living environment, and seemed cheerful. But who knew the pain in his heart?

Gao Mantang’s talk today was surely about wanting Xiang Yu and his grandson to communicate more and possibly become friends.

Xiang Yu smiled and nodded, "Zhitao is my friend. If anything happens, I’ll definitely help him."

Gao Mantang was satisfied with this response, nodding as he continued walking ahead. From the first moment he saw Xiang Yu, he knew this guy was not simple, and how he handled the matter of the shopping mall indicated his moral character couldn’t be too bad.

"Can I ask a question?" Xiang Yu asked from behind.

"I know what you want to ask, is it about Zhitao’s father?" Gao Mantang walked to a bench and sat down.

Xiang Yu sat next to him, looking ahead. In the distance were two plainclothes men vigilantly examining their surroundings. Xiang Yu knew these two must be Gao Mantang’s bodyguards.

"Zhitao’s father, Gao Lianfeng, was an excellent soldier. He failed during a mission, and all his team members died. His body was never found, and he’s been missing ever since," Gao Mantang said, his eyes growing moist. After all, that was his own son. Though many years had passed, his son would always be alive in his heart.

Gao Mantang blinked, not letting the tears fall. He was a soldier, a senior officer; how could he cry in front of a child?

"At the time, I almost exhausted the resources of the entire military district looking for him, but there was no trace, as if he had disappeared suddenly."

Gao Mantang adjusted his emotions, letting out a long sigh.

Maybe in his heart, there was an unerasable pain. The mission he ordered back then turned out to be the last goodbye to his own son.

"Where did he go missing? What mission was he on?" Xiang Yu asked curiously.

Logically, City No. 2 isn’t near the border, so even if their military district participated in missions, it wouldn’t be like before.

"There was a group of desperadoes who killed many people, including scientists and some intellectuals. This incident shook the entire military district, and the command handed down the mission with strict orders to take them out," Gao Mantang’s eyes seemed to drift back to the past.

"At that time, I was the mayor, and Lianfeng was the captain of the special operations team. Their unit was the elite of the army, having successfully carried out many missions. To quickly eliminate that group of scoundrels, I sent them..." At this point, Gao Mantang’s eyes became moist again.

Seeing an old soldier’s eyes become moist, one could imagine the pain he felt back then.

Xiang Yu could feel the old man’s mood, but he sensed something strange in this matter. He had to find out why only Gao Lianfeng wasn’t found. Could it be that someone had a vendetta against Gao Mantang?

"Where were they ambushed?" Xiang Yu asked.

"In the mountains of Daxinganling, in an unexplored primeval forest," Gao Mantang replied directly.

Hearing this, Xiang Yu was suddenly taken aback. He had been to that place before. Last time, he had nearly lost his life there, and he also met his former comrade Qing Lang.

Gao Mantang noticed the odd expression on Xiang Yu’s face, so he turned to look at him, "Is something wrong?"

Xiang Yu quickly shook his head, "It’s nothing, just reminded of something. Why did they want to kill those intellectuals? Could they have a grudge against intellectuals?"

Mentioning intellectuals, Xiang Yu suddenly thought of Xiao Xuan’s father...
