Chapter 18: A Familiar Back
Zilong nodded lightly, let Huo Yinggu in, and the two sat on the sofa face to face, Huo Yinggu said a little unhurriedly: "Yinggu is really a bit presumptuous to visit late at night, but there are some important things so I want Mr. to help, I don't know ......."
"If there's anything you say, as long as I can help, I'll do my best. Zilong said slowly to Huo Yinggu, because he had promised Huo Ruthless to help his descendants, so there was nothing to shirk, but he didn't know what the power of the Yihuo family needed his help with.
"My husband and I have already talked about the imperial family, now the strength of the imperial family is getting stronger and stronger, with the king-level master of Diba Duan, we also heard that the imperial family has found a hidden family to help, and most of the hidden families are very secretive, with the ability of my fire family, I can't find any useful news. This time I went to Shachi City to ask Jin Qian for help, but I was rejected, because according to Jin Qian, they will not provoke the hidden family, this is the rule, so I have no choice, so I have no choice but to come to Mr., can you ask Chi Chen, see if you can help investigate some of the situation of this hidden family, these are very important to our Huo family, a hidden enemy is always much more terrifying than a strong enemy. Huo Yinggu sorted out his thoughts and said everything that needed to be said in one go.
Zilong lowered his head and pondered, does the Tianji Hotel have anything to do with the Hanhua Empire behind Ade? He is still not sure, after all, the Tianji Gate is a force that even his other identity, "Falling Leaves and Ruthless", dares to subdue it, and there are Tianji Hotels all over the mainland, such a force is definitely not something that any one person or one force can control. But since he had already promised Huo Wugu, he didn't know what to say now, so he could only give it a try, he raised his head and looked at Huo Yinggu, who was anxiously waiting for his reply, and said with a smile: "How much do you know about that hidden family?"
"We only know that it is the Sikong family, and they live in seclusion in the territory of the Qiming Empire, and we don't know anything else. As soon as Huo Yinggu heard Zilong's tone, he knew that there was hope, and he couldn't help but say urgently.
"Well, I can try, but I can't guarantee that he will do me a favor. Zilong nodded and said softly.
"Then thank you, sir, without further ado, and it will take time to investigate, see if you can ...... now" Huo Yinggu was excited to know immediately, and he also wanted to return to the Huo family earlier, so he anxiously urged Zilong to say.
Zilong smiled helplessly, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Chi Chen now, but if this matter doesn't work out, I can't help it, don't blame me then." ”
"You said there, as long as you go out, there is definitely nothing that can't be done, then Yinggu is here waiting for the good news from Mr. Huo Yinggu hurriedly slapped a sycophant, and didn't care whether Zilong liked to listen to it or not.
Zilong smiled bitterly, it seems that this Huo Yinggu didn't get the news today and won't let me sleep, so I really had no choice, so I had to respond: "Then you just wait here, if I come back late, you can go back to rest first, and I'll tell you tomorrow The result is not the same?"
"It's okay, I'll wait for Mr. to come back, I wish you success. ”
Zilong shook his head helplessly and walked out of the room, but now he didn't know where Chi Chen was, so he could only ask people, at this moment he saw a very familiar figure, but it flashed by, the figure had already entered a room, so that he didn't see who it was, since it was not good to knock on someone's room, but there would always be a meeting if there was fate, and he didn't want others to know his identity now, so there was no difference between seeing and not seeing.
I didn't see a waiter in the Tianji Hotel a few times, and I don't know what happened today, usually waiters can be seen everywhere, and finally found a beautiful receptionist at the reception on the first floor, Zilong stepped forward and asked: "I don't know where the waiters have gone today, why can't I see one." ”
When the receptionist saw that it was Zilong, and knew that he was Chi Chen personally greeting him in, he couldn't help but stand up in a hurry, and said timidly: "The waiters have been transferred and don't know who to serve, it seems that they are just to serve the food, I really don't understand how there are still such people who can eat now, may I ask Mr. What is the matter with you?"
Zilong was embarrassed, he didn't expect Yang Hansen to bring such trouble to the hotel, he smiled and said to the receptionist: "I want to find Boss Chi, I don't know where he is now?"
"At this time, the boss should rest in the inner hall, and if you want to go, I can show you the way. The receptionist said to Zilong with a respectful look.
"I still don't have to trouble you, you tell me the location of the inner hall, and I'll go by myself. Zilong shirked.
After the receptionist pointed out the way to the inner hall for Zilong, he walked straight to the inner hall, and knocked lightly at the door, and soon Chi Yan opened the door, and saw that the person who came turned out to be Zilong and hurriedly let him in, the two of them sat on the sofa, and Chi Yan said first: "I don't know what is important for Mr. Yulong's late night visit?"
"I want to ask Boss Chi for something, I don't know if it's inconvenient?" Zilong said to Chi Yan with a smile.
"Mr. Yulong has something to order, and the above has instructed him that as long as it is Mr. Yulong's business, he will definitely do his best to do it. Chi Yan said calmly to Zilong, what makes Zilong strange is that this Chi Chen is not groveling to him like other bosses, although he also attaches great importance to him, but he is definitely not as humble as others, although this makes Zilong puzzled, but it is also in line with his wishes.
"I want to know something about Sikong's hidden family, I wonder if Boss Chi can help?" Zilong didn't bend around, and said directly to Chi Chen.
Chi Chen's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he pondered, the tea on the table slowly exuded a faint heat, Zilong calmly waited for his reply, and after a while, he raised his head to meet Zilong's gaze and said, "Old man is presumptuous, I want to ask Mr. if he came to ask for the Huo family?"
A gleam flashed in Zilong's eyes, and he was a little surprised that Chi Yan was more direct than him, but he smiled lightly, did not hide it, and said to Chi Yan truthfully: "Exactly, I have some relationship with the Huo family, so I want to ask Boss Chi to help, if this matter is inconvenient for Boss Chi, then forget it." ”
"Could it be that Mr. really wants to meddle in the affairs of the Qiming Empire?"
"Not necessarily, I'm just doing the Fire family a favor. Zilong knew that he had promised Huo Ruthless, this trip to the muddy water was indispensable, as long as the Huo family elder helped himself, he would definitely help without violating his principles.
Chi Chen lowered his head, was silent again, Zilong did not bother him, picked up a pen on the table in front of him and gently turned it in his hand, after a long silence, Chi Yan sighed and said in a deep voice: "Since the boss wants us to listen to Mr. as much as possible, then this matter will definitely be done, and I will give Mr. an answer early tomorrow morning." ”
Zilong thought that Chi Chen would prevaricate, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly, if he really didn't agree, Zilong really didn't have any effective way. But now it seems that he is too worried, in this case, he can go back and tell Huo Yinggu the good news, stood up and said to Chi Chen: "In this case, I will thank Boss Chi first, and I will leave if there is nothing to do." ”
"Mr. Yulong, wait a minute, I don't know if I should say a sentence from the old man?" Chi Yan stopped Zilongmian who was about to leave, stood up and said with a straight face.
"It's okay if Boss Chi has something to say. Zilong stopped and said to Chi Chen.
"My son-in-law is sincere to Mr., and he really regards Mr. as a friend, and some things are better to think about and do again, I think Mr. understands what I mean. Chi Yan stood with his hands in his hands and said to Zilong in a deep voice.
"I understand what Boss Chi means, and I have also told your son-in-law about this matter, so I don't have anything to say now. Zilong chuckled and explained to Chi Chen, but there were monstrous waves in his heart, this Tianji Hotel is definitely different from Shachi City, Warnard turned out to be Chi Chen's boss, and he also bluntly confessed to himself, Ade, what are you doing?
"It's a lot of old talk, I'll go to Mr. tomorrow morning. Chi Yan bowed his hand, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said to Zilong.
"Then I'll wait for Boss Chi and take my leave. After saying that, Zilongtou left the inner hall without looking back and walked towards his room.
When he returned to the room, Huo Yinggu was really still waiting, and when he saw Zilong returning, he couldn't help but stand up immediately and said to Zilong urgently: "Mr. is back, I'm so anxious to wait, what's going on?"
Zilong smiled faintly and said to him: "Don't worry, you can know the information of the Sikong family early tomorrow morning, and it's not too early, go back and rest early." ”
"Really, that's great, then Yinggu won't disturb Mr. to rest, I'll come to see Mr. tomorrow morning." After Huo Yinggu finished speaking, he happily left Zilong's room.
Zilong sat alone in the sand, smiled bitterly and shook his head, I don't know what kind of things will happen when he arrives at the Huo family, Sikong, Sikong, he always feels as if something flashes in his mind, but he can't think of it anyway, what is it? It seems that there is always a knot in his heart, and he can't solve it, and who will that familiar back be? What kind of acquaintances can there be in the small Salt City? There are also Tianji Hotel and Warnard ...... I can't understand it more and more.
Zilong looked at the night outside the window, the sporadic lights were constantly flickering in the city, and the silence of the night made the dilapidated city seem a little gloomy, as if it was a forgotten corner of the world, without any life.
Sighing and quietly walking back to the bedroom, taking off the Saint King mask, holding it in his hand, Zilong felt the delicate feeling of this unknown metal, and at the same time thought of Sigrad, and he didn't know what the situation of the beast tribe was now, and a thick longing spread in his heart......
