When Xia Cheng fled, Xu Changqing was speeding all the way on the highway leading to Horoza.

The phone rang at an inopportune time, and when I pressed the answer button, it turned out to be Tatsuya Uesugi.

"I've found the guy who hacked into your computer!" Uesugi was full of a sense of accomplishment, "Actually, it's not difficult, he is a big customer of Fuso Telecom, and he pulled a fiber optic cable to enter the house alone." Although he passed through multiple springboards when he invaded and erased a lot of records, he didn't wipe them clean after all. I've got all the information he has registered with the access provider, including name, address, and credit card number......"

Seeing that Uesugi had an endless meaning, Xu Changqing hurriedly intercepted it. "Wait, send it to my mobile phone first," he said to Uesugi, "I'm in a bit of a hurry now, I'll get back to you." ”

However, Uesugi was so excited that he couldn't stop the car when he spoke: "Send it to the mailbox? But I monitored his posts in the 4ch, and I think he seems to have a plan-"

Click, Xu Changqing hung up the phone.

Is it urgent to save Xia Cheng? The guy with a black horned tail and a fork in Xu Changqing's heart pouted: You've only known her for two weeks, okay. Don't forget the purpose of your visit to Ezo. Now that the whereabouts of the fog demon are in front of you, you put it aside and go to save a girl who met in Pingshui?

Xu Changqing's conscience jumped out, took off the angelic halo on his head, and smashed a dog with a fork to gnaw the ground. Kicking while smashing back: If you don't save you when you see death, can you bear it! Bear with it! Heart! Why!

The angel's aura slammed down, the fork was defeated, the head was smashed to the ground, and the tail swung weakly.

Xu Changqing admits that he is not an indifferent and ruthless person. Maybe he is realistic, but he also has blood. When I think of Xia Cheng, I think of the tavern with the door facing the sea, I think of how drunk she looks, I think of the tears in her eyes when she mentions her mother, and I think of the song that I hummed on the old record player.

The long night of indifference, the moment of closing your eyes

Meteors are silent, who accompanies your loneliness

Let my heart stay here, this night, just to watch you

If you don't go today, the fog demon may not be able to run, but Xia Cheng will definitely die. He convinced himself that there were some things that might be irreparable if he missed them.

At the intersection near Purple Loverland Park, opposite the gas station, the red house mentioned by Xia Cheng stands quietly.

There are not many pedestrians on the road, and there are few cars. There were no customers at the gas station, and the clerks were all in a daze in the office. Xu Changqing drove into the gas station slowly, lowered the window, and woke up the clerk who was napping near the window: "Hey, fill up." ”

"Huh? Welcome! ”

The clerk jumped up as if he had been poked in the ass and hurried out of the office to get the oil gun.

While refueling, Xu Changqing looked at the red house. It is very common to see a small wooden two-story building with a small garden and a ring of green hedges around it. Fenced walls? It's a bit of a luxury. It covers an area of more than 300 square meters, and it is absolutely impossible to play with such a tall concept as a fence wall.

However, a two-metre-high fence wall blocked the view. Sitting in the car, I couldn't see anything inside the Red House at all.

"The house opposite," Xu Changqing asked the clerk in a roundabout way, "Do you sell it or not?" I kind of like that look. Has anyone driven to see a property recently? Like today? ”

The clerk recalled: "Today? I think there's one, and it's by car. That model is cool, it should be ...... Alfa Romeo, right, big red. ”

The red Alfa Romeo, Xu Changqing knows that Xia Cheng has been opening this one recently.

"That Alpha ......" Xu Changqing carefully considered the words, not only to ask the key, but also to avoid the vigilance of the clerk. Are you sure you're coming to see the property? Maybe you live here? ”

The clerk smiled: "Guest, if you really want to buy that house, you are lucky." The house was absolutely vacant, and I worked here every day, and I never saw anyone come in or out. As for the Alfa Romeo today—" he deliberately dragged his voice.

Xu Changqing gave him a 5,000 yen bill: "Don't be too little, take it for tea." ”

The clerk smiled even brighter: "That Alfa Romeo, the owner is definitely here to see the house." I've always had a very good memory of famous cars, and I never remember a car like this. Do you think, a luxury car that has never appeared before suddenly entered, not to see a house and buy a house, what the hell could it be? ”

It seems that Xia Cheng has indeed arrived safely, and is now waiting in the red house. Xu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief.

The courtyard of the red house is very quiet, and the fence wall separates the hustle and bustle of the road. Walking in slowly, Xu Changqing saw a tree of magenta flowers, blooming in the sun. A black cat was coiled under the tree, and when he saw Xu Changqing walking in, he didn't run away, and lazily flicked his tail to look at him.

Peaceful, serene, everything seems normal, but it's a little ...... It's normal to feel excessive.

Maybe it's intuition, Xu Changqing faintly felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart. If Xia Cheng fled here for refuge, what should the situation be? At least she didn't have time to park her car, and maybe rub into the tree that stood in front of the garage door. Thinking of this, he leaned over and half-knelt to carefully examine the ruts on the grass. The turf was evenly paved with hexagonal hollow stone bricks, and the ruts were not noticeable, but he still saw some clues. Judging from the traces of the tire grip, the Alfa Romeo should have been rough when he came in.

The uneasiness intensified. Keep your eyes open and look closely! Master Gushanlong's motto always echoes in his heart.

He walked up to the tree and touched its bark, but it got a little brown paint. On closer inspection, sure enough, the tree had been rubbed. The bark is scraped off first, and then the exact same color is carefully applied by a master. If you don't look closely, you won't find it. He looked up for the magenta flowers on the branches, and found that there were only the remnants of the stamens after the petals fell. Where did the petals that were shaken off? The ground was as clean as rain and blue, and there was nothing.

Some people do not hesitate to work and deliberately create a false impression of safety, is it just waiting for the rabbit?

Continuing to walk towards the two-story building, Xu Changqing's steps had become very cautious.

The main entrance is hidden, the snow-white rocking chair under the porch is bathed in sunlight, and everything is very peaceful. Xu Changqing's footsteps were very regular, and he walked to the door step by step.

With a creak, the door was pushed open. said that it was too late, and then quickly, two big men with strong muscles suddenly jumped out of the door, with knives in their hands! Two shiny katanas, one stabbed straight at the waist, and the other slashed head-on! Xu Changqing is three-headed and six-armed, and he can't prevent two simultaneous raids.

However, both knives slashed at the same time. There was no one in front of the main gate at all. The killer in ambush looked surprised: What about people? I heard the target's footsteps just now.

The killers were surprised when a sudden burst of pain erupted from the back of their heads, and their consciousness went blank. That's the end of their thinking. The slinging stick with a silver skull decoration at the top "Xiu Xiu" with the wind, accurately pumped on the vital point behind the ears of the two people. The two killers didn't say a word, and fell to the ground and passed out.

The footsteps just now were nothing but an illusion. Xu Changqing used the illusion technique to simulate himself walking to the door, and then pushed the door with the hand of the mage, and sure enough, a stupid bird that had been ambushed in advance jumped out.
