Ah Yi and the other eleven stood rigidly, their eyes tensely fixed on Tan Yulin, who wore a sly expression.
"Hello, everyone. I am Tan Yulin, the instructor responsible for speed training in ’Red Thorn’." Tan Yunlin inserted his hands into his trouser pockets, and his sturdy military boots made a "thud, thud" sound on the cement floor, "Hmm, you might not know my name. But it doesn’t matter, you should have heard of my nickname. I am Tan Yulin, nicknamed, ’Flying Eagle’!"
As soon as Tan Yunlin finished speaking, the twelve of them sharply inhaled a breath of cold air.
’Flying Eagle,’ a member of ’Red Thorn,’ was so named because of his incredible speed.
Ordinarily, the information about ’Red Thorn’ would absolutely be unknown to the common folk. However, five years ago, ’Flying Eagle’ represented Nanjin in an internationally renowned military combat competition. Moreover, in the final round, he consecutively defeated three top foreign competitors to become the champion!
From then on, ’Flying Eagle’s fame was firmly etched in the hearts of all Nanjin people!
Ah Yi and a few others clearly remembered seeing that upright figure wearing a mask on the live television broadcast five years ago. At that time, countless cameras were broadcasting the competition to the world from various angles. But even then, with ’Flying Eagle’s swift speed, all they could capture was a series of blurry images. After the match, the internet was filled with countless slow-motion analyses of ’Flying Eagle’s movements, and finally, after slowing down the speed by dozens of times, they caught sight of him!
At that moment, the world was shocked!
Some even speculated that the masked ’Flying Eagle’ was Gu Yelin himself, for only he could possess such rapid speed!
But what everyone didn’t expect was that ’Flying Eagle’ turned out to be Tan Yulin!
Ah Yi and the other twelve stared dumbfounded at the nonchalant red-haired man before them. This was ’Flying Eagle’? This was the ’Flying Eagle’ they once admired so greatly?
"Fl-Fly- Flying Eagle! I’ve actually seen him alive!" The baby-faced Ah Jiu rubbed his eyes vigorously, stuttering his words.
Tan Yulin’s smile instantly petrified, and he glared fiercely at Ah Jiu, grinding his teeth as he said, "I’ve always been alive! I remember you now, run twenty extra laps later!"
Ah Jiu froze, his entire person stiffened.
An Yiqing couldn’t help but burst into laughter watching the few quarreling.
"Starting today, your identities will no longer be Ah Yi, Ah Er. Since you’ve followed me, I’ll give you proper names." An Yiqing opened the file bag in her hand, and began distributing its contents to them, "Since we are brothers, I’ve taken the liberty to decide that you’ll share the same surname as me. My big brother is An Zhihang, my second brother is An Zhiyan. You’ll follow suit. For the sake of easy remembrance, I used the words ’Wind, Fire, Thunder, Cloud, Ice, Rain, Mist, Cold, Charm, Shadow, Affection, Sorrow’ to form twelve names. From now on, you will no longer be the identity-less Ah Yi, Ah Er; instead, you’re my brothers, An Zhifeng, An Zhihuo, An Zhilei, An Zhiyun, An Zhibing, An Zhiyu, An Zhiwu, An Zhihan, An Zhimei, An Zhiying, An Zhiqing, An Zhishang!"
The twelve silently took the identity cards and profiles An Yiqing handed to them, their expressions filled with excitement.
From today on, they were not nameless, surname-less, identity-less numerical Ah Yi, Ah Er, but instead her brothers! They had the surname An, they had names! They had new lives!
Seeing the excited expressions of the twelve, An Yiqing smiled contentedly. For them, she hoped she could do everything within her power.
After handing over the twelve brothers of An Zhifeng to Tan Yulin, An Yiqing left the base.
Duan Jingning’s treatment was almost complete; he just had to wait for the An Family banquet to end, and he would return to Nanjin.
