Chapter 343: Backing Up (Second Update)
"Alright, we'll go first if we have something to do, and we'll see you tomorrow at the coronation."
After saying a brief goodbye to Aven, I walked into the elevator with Hanqin and Yaqilu.
"You can leave directly from the ground floor." Alan said to us, already starting to prepare the surgical equipment, and I certainly knew what he was going to do next.
I nodded and immediately closed the elevator doors, I really didn't want to stay in that kind of place, and the lives were lost in just a few hours, so that I might have nightmares at night when I saw their faces again, not to mention that it was already late at night and close to the early hours of the morning, the heaviest time of the day.
When I got to the first floor, the elevator door opened, and the bookshelves that were used as secret doors outside were moved to the left and right, and it turned out to be a bookstore!
When we walked out, the two bookshelves closed again, and there was no sign that it was a door.
The bookstore is quite large, with quaint dΓ©cor and rows of European-style wooden shelves filled with all kinds of books, which at first glance looks very cultural, and no one knows that it is full of evil.
Bypassing those bookshelves, there was no one around, probably because it was too late, but as we were about to walk past the last row of bookshelves to the door, a familiar figure appeared in front of us, none other than James!
He was plugging in his headphones, sitting leisurely on a chair by the window and reading silently.
I walked up and knocked on the table, and then he raised his head, showed his usual hearty smile when he saw us, and pulled out his headphones: "Hey, you guys haven't left yet?" β
"I'm supposed to ask you, right?" I'm smiling too.
"Anyway, I don't have much place to go after work, so I come here to read a book to pass the time." He said, spreading his hands.
"Looks like you're a night owl." I smiled wryly.
"He works the night shift in all his jobs, and he gets off work early today." Yaqilu said on the side, "So even if you go back, you may not be able to sleep, right?" β
"You still know me best!" James smiled at him.
After parting ways with James, we walked out of the bookstore, and the street was empty, with only one or two cats rummaging through the trash cans under the dim streetlights.
Because we were at the main gate this time, and Merlot's car was at the corner at the other end, near the iron gate we had entered.
Strangely, Yaqilu was still following us at the moment, so I asked, "How did you get here?" β
"Taxi ......," he replied softly.
"It's not as good as the city, and you shouldn't be able to get a taxi at this point now, so why don't we send you back?" I said politely.
When Han Qin heard this, her eyes widened suddenly, because we ourselves came in Merlot's car, and in her opinion, it was impossible for Yaqilu to go home in such a car.
"Good! That's trouble! "Yaqilu deserves to be very happy.
"Let's go, then." I smiled very naturally and strode towards the parking lot.
"Are you in the wrong mind? Do you want Merlot to send him back!? Han Qin whispered next to me.
I hugged her and said with a playful smile: "I'm the boss of Cassio House now, who dares to offend me?" β
"Let go! Yaqilu is still to come! "Hanqin wanted to break free, but I hugged him tighter.
"What haven't European children seen before? What's more, he just hugged his waist and didn't do anything else. I said nonchalantly.
At this time, we had come to the car not far away, Han Qin suddenly stopped, and said to Yaqilu behind: "You better find a way to go back by yourself, this car is ......"
Just when Yaqilu was at a loss, I interrupted: "What your little sister means is that the car is running out of gas, and I'm afraid I won't be able to go too far!" β
"I see!" Yaqilu relaxed at this time and said with a smile, "It's okay, my house is not very far from here!" β
Han Qin glared at me fiercely, and I didn't think so.
As soon as the rear door opened, Yaqilu was the first to get in, and Han Qin's heart tightened, but he still sat in, and finally me.
After the door closed, Melo in the front driver's seat did not speak, and he didn't dare to move less as if he was frightened, which made Han Qin feel deeply puzzled.
"Where to go?" At this time, a man's voice came from the co-pilot in the front row, because the light was very dim here, Han Qin didn't notice that there was anyone in the co-pilot at first, and this voice seemed to have been heard somewhere.
"Let's send this kid home first." I replied calmly, as if I had known it for a long time.
"Are you ......?" Han Qin finally couldn't help but ask.
The co-pilot's man turned around at this time: "Meet again." β
"Dracula!?" Hanchin and Aqilu spoke almost in unison.
"According to the agreement, I didn't suck him dry, and I still drove in one breath." Dracula grinned, revealing two fangs.
"Yes, there is progress." I said lightly, and turned to Yaqilu, who was still surprised, "If you don't tell people the address, how can I send you back?" β
After saying the address, that place was very close to the M City Polytechnic University where we were going, and it was near the university town in the city, which can be said to be a stop.
Threatened by Dracula, Melo started the car and began to drive towards his destination.
On the way, Hanqin didn't speak, but I knew that she wanted to know the answer, but it was inconvenient to ask now, it was about half past twelve in the evening, and the things in our bracelets were taken back by Anna as promised, and Hanqin's was already empty, and I still had the bloodthirsty talent of the notepad left, and my new things were not taken away, which made me full of curiosity.
In fact, I had the idea before, that is, to take out everything that can be taken out of the bracelet and store it in the traditional storage method, so that the other party cannot steal it.
But there will be two problems in doing so, the first is naturally Brother Feng's safety, after all, people are still in Nino's hands, we can't be too bold; The second is Anna.,Because I think this time Anna can temporarily return things to us at a critical moment.,Actually, she did it behind Nino's back.,Although I don't know what she's doing it for.,But anyway, it's also to save my and Hanqin's lives.,Otherwise, it's hard for us to get out.,Let alone win the game in the end.,So we can't implicate her.γγ
Based on these two points, we can only obediently continue to cooperate for the time being, but what Nino didn't expect is that even if I lose everything in the bracelet now, I have already gained something more important.
Yes, the strength of one person may be insignificant, but if you have a strong backing, the effect is different. So I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's coronation.
