Chapter 1 Amami Oshima

Between the mainland of Kagoshima and Okinawa, there is an island called the "Oriental Colon Islands".

It is a pearl of Kagoshima, Kyushu and is known as "the island closest to paradise".

There are emerald green seas and mangroves swaying in the wind, full of southern style, just like a paradise on earth.

"Is this Amami Oshima?"

"Where did you grow up?"

Looking at the breathtaking scenery outside the window, Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

The island in front of him was far more beautiful than he had imagined. Even Lu Xuan, who had never been very picky about the living environment, couldn't help but have the idea of ​​settling here.

"To be precise, I lived here before I was ten years old."

Hearing this, Da Gu, who was sitting in the driver's seat and driving, replied softly.

However, in addition to being proud of his hometown, Dagu's voice seemed to reveal a little sadness at this time.

"Before ten years old?"

"Is it related to your adoptive parents?"

Before coming here, Lu Xuan had already roughly learned about Dagu's life experience through various channels.

Different from the life experience of Da Gu, who was rarely mentioned in previous TV series, in this real world, Da Gu also has his own life trajectory.

However, it is different from the "ordinary" in Lu Xuan's usual impression.

Da Gu, who seemed so gentle at all times, actually had a very miserable childhood.

When Dagu was ten years old, his parents died in an accident, leaving him alone to temporarily live in his grandfather's house.

After living in the care of others for quite a long time, Dagu was adopted by his current adoptive parents and gradually got over the shadow of his parents' unexpected death.

"Yes, they are all very gentle people..."

"After my biological parents passed away, they came to my grandfather's house and proposed the idea of ​​adopting me."

"All this is just because my parents have helped them, and they don't want to see me living a life of dependence on others."

Although the tone seems a bit understated, the heaviness in the ancient saying can be heard by anyone.

In Japan, a society where interpersonal relationships tend to be cold, even family members with blood ties are unwilling to adopt Dagu. One can only imagine the sincerity of the adoptive parents.

"After they officially adopted me, I was unwilling to call them parents for a long time. Instead, I directly called them Mr. Taniyama and Ms. Misaki..."

"But they didn't care about this. Instead, they took my mood into consideration, voluntarily gave up their jobs in big cities, and decided to settle on Amami Oshima."

"Although they often say afterwards that they are tired of living in big cities and want to retire early."

"But I know those are just excuses. They just don't want me to live in a completely unfamiliar place after losing my parents."

He gave up his stable life in a big city for an adopted son who was not related by blood.

Not all adoptive parents can do this, which is why Dagu began to officially treat them as parents.

No matter what the original intention of the adoptive parents was in adopting Dagu, they have already devoted all their love to each other.

"Although I was only a child at that time, I could feel their good intentions, so I firmly disagreed with their ideas."

"In addition, my father was determined to train me to be an excellent construction engineer, so he sent me to the best middle school in Okinawa, and they stayed with me all the time."

"It wasn't until I successfully applied for a university in Tokyo that they moved out of the big cities in Okinawa and officially settled here."

In a sense, this is all that biological parents can do.

"They do sound like a very 'gentle' couple."

Lu Xuan was noncommittal about the couple's choice. After all, it was their personal choice.

The only thing Lu Xuan can be sure of is that this couple indeed had a great influence on Dagu, and even indirectly shaped Dagu's current character.

Ordinary, gentle, yet firm...

It is this kind of ancient people who will be designated as successors by the light of Tiga in the future, becoming an important link between "light" and "people".

"But I want to know one thing, how much did you tell them about me?"

Lu Xuan never thought that he would be the protagonist of any novel or movie, nor did he think that everyone around him had the obligation to conceal his identity for him.

Therefore, when Da Gu discovered his identity, Lu Xuan had already prepared for the possibility that his alien identity would be spread to a small area.

In fact, Lu Xuan took the initiative to follow Dagu to Amami Oshima this time, partly because he wanted to see if Dagu had revealed his identity.

"Don't worry about this, I didn't tell them your identity."

Dagu was just a bit reckless sometimes, and he wasn't really brainless. He immediately heard the subtext of Lu Xuan's words.

The discovery and investigation of Lu Xuan's alien identity was a private action taken by Da Gu alone, and he never told anyone else.

Even if it was his adoptive parents, Dagu would just use the excuse that he was looking for a part-time job.

This is of course because Dagu is not sure whether his investigation is correct.

But on the other hand, I don't want to involve them.

"In their eyes, you are just a supervisor of my part-time company..."

"I came to Amami Oshima this time because I wanted to do a detailed background check."

Although it seems a bit strange for a large multinational company to conduct a background check on a "part-time employee".

But compared to the reason "my boss is an alien and dragged me to participate in the investigation of the ruins of some super ancient civilization", it is still much more reasonable.

"This is a really bad excuse..."

Lu Xuan habitually complained about Dagu's level of making excuses, and Lu Xuan stroked his forehead helplessly and sighed.

Now he can only pray that Dagu's adoptive parents will not be too serious about these details, otherwise this matter may not be able to be resolved.

"Also, why would you want to bring Geddy with you?"

When he said this, Lu Xuan turned his head and glanced at Geddy in the back row who was still sticking out his tongue, his tone full of disgust.

"Ah? Aren't I afraid that it will cause trouble?"

In the final analysis, no matter how stupid Geddy appears now, it is after all a super-ancient Komon dog monster from 30 million years ago.

It is estimated that only a big-hearted guy like Lu Xuan would dare to leave it alone at the headquarters of Galvin Company.
