653, Xu Ke's choice
At 9 o'clock in the evening, a person who no one could have imagined suddenly came to Qinghe Building, Xu Qian, the president of the student union of Qinghe University, stood outside the security gate and said: "I am Xu Zhen of the Xu family, and I want to see my brother Xu Ke." ”
Xu Ke is Xu Zhen's cousin, before the accident in Los Angeles, the relationship between the two was still very good, and many of Xu Zhen's friends know that Xu Zhen takes Xu Ke as a role model in life.
However, at this time, it was useless for anyone to come, and Luo Yunxian, the knight sitting at the gate, just glanced up at him and said, "Xu Ke is not a guest today, so come again tomorrow." ”
No matter whether Qinghe is still there tomorrow or not, we will talk about it after tonight, time will decide everything.
Xu Zhen stood at the door and was silent for a long time: "Can you help me tell my brother, maybe he is willing to see me?"
Luo Yun ignored him, the knights were not subordinates of the Qinghe Group, they just wanted to guard Qinghe today, and they didn't care about anything else.
Xu Qian, who used to attract much attention wherever he went, suddenly felt a little lonely, and the adult world really didn't care about his achievements in school.
But at this moment, Xu Ke's secretary got down from the elevator and said to Xu Qian: "Follow me upstairs." ”
As soon as these words came out, Xu Qian's eyes lit up again: "Okay." ”
The elevator went all the way to the top floor, the 12th floor, and when the door opened, Xu Zhen saw Xu Ke standing alone by the floor-to-ceiling window on the 12th floor, as if he was looking at the whole of Los Angeles.
Today's Los Angeles is no longer a city that never sleeps, with most of the neon signs turned off, and pedestrians hiding at home and afraid to go out, so that the streets look particularly deserted.
Before Xu Zhen walked to Xu Ke's side, Xu Ke laughed first: "You see, a city without strong force to protect it is so fragile. ”
"It will definitely return to its former prosperity," Xu said softly.
"Did you come to me for something?" Xu Ke said curiously.
"Someone is going to deal with you," Xu said.
"I know. ”
"They're going to kill you. ”
"I know that too. ”
Xu Zhen couldn't help it after all: "There are more people coming this time than you imagined, and the people who died in front of them are some foreign transcendents who have accepted the hir, and their strength may not have been shaken until now." ”
Xu Ke said with interest: "What else do you know?" ”
"And...... Be careful with the people around you," Xu sighed.
Xu Ke was silent.
This time he had to be silent, no matter how many outsiders there were, it wouldn't make him feel so nervous, but it was this sentence that made Xu Ke's eyes look uncertain.
But Xu Zhen suddenly felt that Xu Ke seemed to have known about this matter for a long time.
"I know my uncle is involved, but he doesn't represent me, my father went to the black market yesterday to stay out of it, and I was going to leave, but I always felt a little unsure," Xu said.
Xu Ke smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "While it's still too late, let's leave quickly, stay away from this place of right and wrong, and come back tomorrow." ”
Before today, the floodgates of Los Angeles were closed, and even work visas were stopped.
But today, the gates of Los Angeles suddenly opened, allowing all the residents to flee the city, and telling them that they could come back tomorrow, and that no matter who took control of Los Angeles tomorrow, they would not be unable to live with ordinary people.
Xu Ke did this because he didn't want the entire Los Angeles City to be buried with him.
Li Yingyun and Zhang Qingxi have been running for so many days, just to keep Qinghe Group, because everyone has feelings for Qinghe and Los Angeles.
But Xu Ke suddenly felt that in fact, this city and the people in the city were much more important than a Qinghe.
Everyone actually knows in their hearts that the three consortia have joined forces, and it is not a small Qinghe that can be stopped for a long time, even if Ren Xiaosu is added.
Some people say that after the rise of the gods, the era of the consortium will eventually come to an end, and Xu Ke agrees with this sentence, but at least the consortium is still standing.
At this moment, a firelight erupted in the distance outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and the orange light re-illuminated the entire barrier, no longer dim.
There are so many places where the fire breaks out, like the last fireworks.
Xu Zhen turned his head to look at Xu Ke, he suddenly felt as if the other party had made some decision, and his tightly knit brows also expanded.
Xu Ke smiled at Xu Qian: "Go back, this is not the place you should stay." ”
After sending Xu Zhen away, Xu Ke changed into a combat uniform, which was placed in the closet, and he hadn't touched it for several years.
He stood alone in his office on the top floor, ironing out every fold of his combat uniform as if it were a ritual.
He didn't get down the elevator, but climbed down the outer wall of the building with his bare hands, like a gecko.
Before Qin Sheng became a knight, in fact, even Qin Sheng didn't know that Xu Ke was actually a knight, until he climbed to the top of that mountain and saw Xu Ke's name.
Xu Ke avoided the perspective of Luo Yunxian and the others, and walked on the street alone, he was already a little tired of being protected, and he was also a knight tonight.
Xu Ke looked back at the brightly lit Qinghe Building, which had been standing for decades, and the time in Los Angeles was longer than that of Qinghe Building.
Too many people have died in the past few days, each knight only sleeps for a few hours a day, Lao Li has injuries on his body, but he hides and doesn't tell everyone, Luo Yunxian and Huang Xiaoyu have not closed their eyes when they guard Qinghe Mansion, and they can fall asleep when they stand.
All the consortium wants is the seven satellites and his life, so give them to them, there is no need to drag more people to accompany the funeral.
Knights are supposed to be very chic beings, and each of them is born for freedom and for faith.
But because Xu Ke was at the helm of Qinghe, he tied the knights to Los Angeles, after all, the knights were both prosperous and lossy.
Those knights even had to work with the Xu family, whom they disdained.
So, if it weren't for him Xu Ke, everyone would have a better life, right?
But before that, Xu Ke, as a knight, had to die with dignity.
In other words, he needed the life of the enemy to make him an epitaph.
The outside of Qinghe Mansion has long been covered with the eyeliner of the consortium, so when Xu Ke left the mansion alone, Luo Yunxian and Huang Xiaoyu had not yet discovered it, but the consortium found out first.
After Xu Ke walked away, he suddenly smiled at the figure behind him: "Tell your master, Xu Ke is waiting here to see how many people you can come." ”
A voice next to him smiled: "The helmsman of Qinghe is really more backbone and harder than we imagined, don't worry, the people we came tonight must be enough to bury the entire Qinghe." ”
