Chapter Twenty-Three: Feelings

When the sky was already slightly oozing a trace of fish belly white, the car in which Hugo and the others were riding had already driven into the thirteenth district.

As if he had a premonition, Akita, who had been sleepy before, opened his eyes with difficulty, and it took a while for him to fully wake up. But Xia Ran on the side buried his head between his arms and fell asleep in a very distorted form, while Hugo kept his eyes on the car window, not knowing what was going on in his head.

Akita's gaze followed Hugo's gaze out of the car, and the familiar outline of the city was faintly visible.

"We're here?" Akita's tone was full of joy, and Hugo only hummed lightly when he heard Akita's question, and did not answer more.

The speed of the car slowed down a lot in the city blocks, perhaps due to the impact of such a catastrophe, and Akita felt that the whole city was in a special atmosphere of terror, and the 13th arrondissement, which was once full of relaxation, was now only depressed.

The car finally came to a slow stop at the door of Malfoy's apartment, and Akita looked at Hugo with a little curiosity and was about to speak, but was stopped by Hugo, who also noticed him, with a look in his eyes, Akita knew that he was almost out of his mouth, so he hurriedly fell silent again.

"Thank you. Hugo thanked the older driver, who only nodded slightly. Akita hurriedly woke up Natsuzome and was dragged out of the car before Natsuzome was awake.

This is the first time that Xia Ran has made progress in the metropolitan area, and I wanted to take a good look at the surrounding scenery, but I was rushed into the park.

"Hey, don't bring this. I'm not your prisoner after all, I should have given me time to set you free!" Xia Ran complained dissatisfiedly.

Hugo said: "Now is not the time for you to wander around, the situation in the thirteenth arrondissement is special at the moment, the martial law security should have reached the highest level, you are wandering the streets like this and being investigated carefully, before you have to prepare a new identity for yourself, at least a copy of a MEID." ”

"No, isn't it a little too outstanding?" Although he said this, Xia Ran's resentment just now still dissipated a lot.

What Hugo just said was an exaggeration, but he couldn't help but be cautious about the current chaotic situation.

When a few people entered Villa No. 7, Xia Ran couldn't help but be surprised: "Yo, I really can't see that you are still an invisible rich, although the economy of the metropolitan area is stronger than that of Liujie, but not everyone can afford to live in such a luxurious house." Turning his gaze to Akita, Akita shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't look at me, the student apartment I live in is not as big as a living room here." ”

After saying that, Akita looked at Hugo and said, "Why don't we meet with the people of the Manken Society?"

In the car just now, Qiu Tian wanted to ask Hugo why he didn't go directly to the Yuanshan apartment first, but arrived here. But after seeing Hugo's fierce eyes, he understood that Hugo would not let him mention specific matters in front of outsiders.

Hugo sat down on the sofa, stretched his body vigorously, and then said: "The current situation is special, it is best to reduce the number of meetings between each other, and I believe that at this time, the members of the Nine Divisions will also be fully dispatched, paying close attention to the affairs of the blasphemer." ”

After a pause, Hugo said: "There are still a lot of matters waiting for us to investigate, and the temporary split actions are more knowing." ”

After thinking for a while, Hugo looked at Xia Ran, who was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and said, "From now on, you will live here first, and after a while, you will make me a detailed list of the equipment you need, and I will raise it for you." ”

At this time, Xia Ran also sat opposite Hugo and said: "The environment here is really good, my previous residence is like a prison cell compared to here." But then again, it's a luxurious cell compared to my quarters. ”

Hugo said: "At this time, there is always more sense, not that I am alarmist, my identity in the metropolitan area is not completely secret, at least in a circle, I believe that right now outside this apartment park, there are dozens of eyeliners watching my actions, and in the first lesson you appeared with me, I was included in a certain list." So the cell is not free, but it is still safe. ”

Xia Ran grinned and complained, "I really fell for your trick!" Hugo had already an indifferent attitude towards this.

Hugo said: "I will give you two permission to this place later, and then you two can rest here." Xia Ran, when you have all your equipment assembled, just wait quietly, and don't take the initiative to test or attack Skynet when it is not a critical moment. ”

Xia Ran said in the form of a lying corpse in the sofa: "I like to be an uncle in this cell, and I don't want to take the initiative to provoke other things." ”

After making some arrangements, Hugo got up and was about to leave, when he was called by Akita, who said with a slightly shy look: "After all, there is such a big thing, I still can't rest assured, if I can..."

Hugo understood that Akita was not at ease with Zhilan, and after a little hesitation, Hugo agreed: "Pay more attention on the road and keep in touch at all times." Akita nodded excitedly, in fact, he didn't have to be like this, in Hugo's eyes he was not a subordinate who came and went at a moment's notice.

Soon, Hugo left the Malfoy apartment. To his surprise, he didn't find any eyeliners watching him, perhaps Hugo's recent whereabouts were too erratic, so the personnel were monitored entirely through equipment.

Now Hugo has no scruples and just walks briskly down the streets.

Although the anxiety in his heart urged Hugo to act quickly, so far Hugo has never had a specific direction in his mind to carry it out.

The Ah Hitomi he relied on the most was no longer alive, and the launch of Skynet also made it difficult for Xia Ran to move an inch, and the reason why Hugo didn't want to get in touch with the side of the Manyan Society was because the current situation and other aspects would inevitably put pressure on the only surviving blasphemer organization, and the paper kite was still recuperating from its injuries, and it was not easy for the Manyan Society to temporarily protect itself.

After thinking about it, Hugo finally decided to go to Tianying, the scene of the crime, to have a look, although that land had no nostalgia for him for a long time. But there are already people close to him.

So Hugo immediately had directions, hailed a taxi on the street and sat in.

...

When Hugo arrived at the outskirts less than three kilometers from Tianying, the taxi could no longer move forward, and Hugo stepped out of the car.

Looking into the distance, an inexplicable sense of sadness rose from the bottom of Hugo's heart. A few months ago, Hugo had walked the same path into the campus that countless people had so much to look at, and all he could see was a ruin.
