Chapter 147: Return II
Pingsong City, not far from the coastal city, is also a prefecture-level city in a large coastal province. Compared to the bustling and crowded coastal cities, this is just an ordinary prefecture-level city in the coastal provinces. In comparison, most of the buildings in Hiramatsu are relatively old, but there are many high-rise buildings, and the whole city is filled with a faint sense of precipitation. It's like dusk after the glory.
"Pingsong was also once the number one industrial city in the entire coastal province. It's a pity that the policy has changed now, and it is no longer as important as before. ”
In a restaurant on the upper floor of a building, an old man with short white hair stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window with coffee and sighed. The coffee in his hand was still steaming. He was dressed in a neat white suit, his face and beard were meticulously groomed, and he looked extremely rigorous.
Throughout the restaurant, soothing music and soft goose yellow lighting. Rows and rows of seats were empty. Only the old man stood at the table next to him, and there sat another old man with the same gray hair. The seated old man was dressed in a black Tang costume. It is embroidered with a black dragon shape. At the same time, a brown cane leaned against the edge of his chair.
"What is there to worry about these ordinary people's affairs, big brother." The sitting old man said lightly. "Our Wu family relies on this not this superficial thing."
"There are countless strange people in this world, although my Wu family is one of the five major families in the dream realm, but if you are not humble and careful, the Feiyan family back then is our example."
"Big brother, you're too worried. Yan Shi, the head of the Feiyan family, was conceited and tried in vain to rule the entire country of China and even the Asian world with the power of one person. That's when everyone backlashed. Besides, my Wu family and their ability circle are not mixed in the same pool. When the sky falls, there is an artifact on top, what are you worried about? The old man in Tang costume took the coffee in front of him and took a sip of it.
"Actually, I also know that most of the entire dream eater circle is thinking about you, second brother, and everyone is thinking that there is an artifact on top of the sky falling. All we have to do is keep the agreement with the Adepts. But there are some things that we can't see, and they won't happen. The old man who was standing sighed, "Recently, the red boots in the southwest province suddenly disappeared, and the longan in the nearby coastal city suddenly disappeared. I always had an uncomfortable feeling about the sudden assassination of Manov in Jiangning City and a series of other things. ”
"Big brother, you're too worried, are there fewer dream eaters who die and get injured because of fighting each other every year? Isn't it the same as before when new people appear and old people leave? What is there to worry about. ”
"That being said, although our Dream Eaters have a great advantage over the abilities of the same level, the top-level combat power is still a big difference, if something goes wrong with the artifact"
"Big brother, you just like to worry about here and there. The longan side has Sri Lanka side to deal with. And the red boots, but no one cared about them before. This time we are not returning to China for this little thing. ”
"Indeed, although Huaguo is our motherland, it is a chaotic zone where dream eaters do not care about it. If we really find that Son of the Void this time, maybe the time for our Wu family to return to the motherland will come. The old man who was standing nodded. It depends on the result this time. Has the specific location of the Children of the Void been located? ”
"It's been positioned for a long time, and it's a child of a big family in Kyoto. This kind of physique is rare in a thousand years, and this time we must not allow other families to sabotage our actions. As long as the Children of the Void are incorporated into our system as soon as possible, the entire dream world of Huaguo can become the territory of my Wu family at that time. The next few tens or hundreds of years will be the glorious period of our Wu family. There is no room for error! "The old man in Tang costume is categorical." After that, if that side also succeeds, it will be the time when my Wu family will truly unify the entire Huaguoli world. ”
"Yes, this is the real great cause of my Wu family. The disgrace that the Psychic Realm gave us Dream Eaters back then made me Wu Duanshan completely reversed!! The short-haired old man's eyes flashed with anger.
"And I, Wu Duanhe!!" The old man stood up busily, and the two brothers looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"The prosperity of my Wu family will come!" This is the same thought in their hearts.
**************
"Last night, on a section of the road in the eastern part of the city, there was a car robbery with a bad surname, and there were four suspects, two men and two women. The specific course of the crime is still under further investigation. A male reporter with an interview microphone stood in the center of a television screen and spoke fluent Mandarin.
Behind him is a mess of crime scenes. The ground was covered in dark red blood and cracks. Some personnel in police uniforms and white medical uniforms were constantly measuring and shuttling around the venue. There was also an almost charred van in the corner. The entire van has been completely reduced to the skeleton. The host reported on the scene, and it could be seen that the entire scene had been almost completely covered.
Suddenly, a body carried on a stretcher walked past the screen.
Lin You sat on the sofa, his eyes shrinking suddenly.
The corpse on the screen, with blood at the corners of its mouth, eyes wide open, seemed to be roaring angrily. It was Captain Jack, who was by Lin Yu's side last night.
Lin You looked at the corpse on the TV in a daze. Until he was carried off camera. A deep chill spread throughout her. The sharp pain in his back still seems to remain on his back. Facing Dolana last night, that moment of defeat, lying on the ground listening to the wanton talk around me, that deep sense of powerlessness
Morning light pours in through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and the cool breeze blows through the half-open windows, bringing up the curtains slightly.
"Xiaoyou?" Lin Fei's voice came from outside the door.
Knock knock. After a rhythmic knock on the door.
"It's time to go to my aunt's house today to say goodbye, and our train ticket back is noon."
Lin You didn't seem to hear half of it at all, just staring at the TV. Motionless.
Chris, the ponytail girl who had just come out of the bathroom, walked out quietly and glanced at Lin You.
"Chris, please open the door." Phil said softly.
The girl nodded, walked to the door, and unlocked it.
With a click, Lin Fei slowly walked into the room. He glanced at Chris lightly and did not speak. They met last night. Regarding Chris's claim to be Lin You's friend, Lin Fei only smiled and didn't inquire deeply.
"It's time for us to go." Lin Fei looked at Lin You who was leaning on the sofa and said softly.
But Lin You didn't hear it, just stared at the TV quietly.
"Xiaoyu." Lin Fei raised her voice.
Phil watched from the side, and both Chris and the bracelet on his hand focused on the two of them. For a while, the surroundings were quiet, except for the faint sound of car horns outside the hotel.
Lin Fei looked at the stunned Lin You, his eyes slowly softened, let such a girl who is less than eighteen years old bear such a heavy pressure, maybe it is time for her to really have a showdown with herself, although she can't expose her information, but she knows most of her information unilaterally, and she can also use other channels to help secretly, thinking about this, Lin Fei glanced at the kitten on the ground, and Chris beside her.
"Xiaoyu." He said softly. Close the door behind you and walk slowly to the couch.
"If there's something you can't handle, maybe try to tell me. I think"
"Get out!" Lin You pointed to the door.
Everyone was stunned. Phil was about to jump on the bench, but suddenly stopped.
Chris was about to walk in the direction of the bedroom, and also turned to look at Lin You. The bracelet on her hand glowed with a faint purple glow.
"Xiaoyou, you" Lin Fei suddenly smiled.
"Get out of !!" Lin You pointed to the door again and said angrily.
The smile on Lin Fei's face disappeared suddenly, and he looked at her fixedly, without saying a word.
After a few moments, he turned and pushed the door open.
Lin You bit his lip, his eyes filled with tears.
"You know what?? What do you know?? You don't know anything!! She shouted. Don't know anything!! She still replayed the Jack who was still alive in her mind, and a sense of fear mixed with a sense of confusion penetrated her whole body. Lin You couldn't help but clench his knees tightly, and the whole person curled up in a ball. The tears finally couldn't hold back and instantly slid down her cheeks.
"Little You" Phil stood on the side, looking at her worriedly.
Although he knew that it was Lin You's impulsive thing when he was in a downturn. but
The result of protecting himself with all his might was to let him get out of the way. A faint sense of loss welled up in his heart, Lin Fei clenched his long sword, stood in front of the window and quietly looked at the coastal city outside. Lin Fei's calm face was reflected on the transparent glass.
Lin You hugged his knees, his face lying between his knees, tears soaking his clothes.
Between the two, it's just two doors.
