Volume 1 The Dragon Hides in the Wild Chapter 3 Hunt and Kill
This "Nine Question Building" is indeed a high and forced place, from the outside to the inside are the decoration of the ancient period of the Common Era, the gilt outside the door is overflowing, the door is carved and the beams are painted, and people are dazzled to see.
Mu Xiaoxiao had never been to this kind of place, looking at the magnificent scene in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a trace of timidity in her heart, as if people didn't know where to stand, and involuntarily leaned towards Tang An.
"Hello sir, do you have an appointment here?" Li Qi took the lead in the front, and as soon as he entered the hall, someone came to greet him.
"Well, I booked a box." Li Qi took out a card and handed it to the receptionist, thinking that it should be a voucher or something.
"Okay, please come with me here~" The lady who received it checked it, and after confirming that there was no problem, she smiled lightly at a few people.
When these four people arrived, there were already more than a dozen people seated at a large table in the field, and when they looked at it, most of the faces were the top students in the class.
When these people saw Li Qi present, they all got up to greet each other, after all, Li Qi was the owner of this dinner, and he was also the son of the patriarch of the Li family, so it was definitely not wrong to be friendly with him.
In this way, Tang An's sense of existence is much smaller, but they don't care, anyway, in their hearts, they are just here to have a meal, and no one cares about themselves.
Li Qi sat down, took everyone to drink a glass of wine, and said a few words like "Come to Li's house to find me if you have something", which is nothing more than the meaning of recruiting in advance.
Everyone was talking on the field, some people with good relationships toasted each other, and slowly everyone was slightly drunk, pretending to be old and imagining the future, and saying "Gou is rich and noble, and does not forget each other".
At this time, Li Qi got up from his seat and walked to Mu Xiaoxiao with a wine. Just as Mu Xiaoxiao was about to stop what she was doing to socialize, she saw Li Qi walking past Mu Xiaoxiao and stopped in front of Tang An.
"Have a drink?" Li Qi shook the wine glass in his hand at Tang An, his face was slightly flushed from the impact of alcohol.
Tang An didn't expect Li Qi to come at him, so he touched the cup with Li Qi in some surprise, put it to his mouth and drank it.
"Actually, I just want to say goodbye to her today."
Li Qi said to himself, looking up at Mu Xiaoxiao, who was staring at this side.
"I should go directly to join the army after the college entrance examination this time." He paused, "It's arranged at home... Of course, I'm quite eager to live that kind of life."
"Then go ahead, you shouldn't mix too badly." Tang An didn't care, after all, in his opinion, the eldest young master's going to join the army was nothing more than mixing up a few years of qualifications.
Li Qi was silent for a while by what he said, then laughed freely and patted Tang An on the shoulder:
"You'll have to take care of her."
Tang An watched Li Qi leave, and after a long while, he turned his head to look at Mu Xiaoxiao with a bewildered face, touched her head, and showed a doting smile on his face.
"That will happen!"
......
After the meeting ended, several people said goodbye to each other.
There were no outsiders, Mu Xiaoxiao immediately took off her disguise in front of people, and returned to her eccentric appearance, she touched her stomach and squatted down on the side of the road, with a satisfied look:
"It's so supportive, I almost can't walk."
"Who told you to eat so much."
"Because it's really delicious!"
“... Let's go back later. ”
"Ah~~~ I don't want it, it's hot outside, I want you to carry me back." After that, Mu Xiaoxiao spread out her arms and looked at Tang An with blank eyes.
"Men and women don't kiss."
"How can you do this? When I rode on your shoulders as a child, you didn't dislike me. Woo woo woo woo ... Brother Tang An, how can you be like this... Woo woo woo you've changed..."Mu Xiaoxiao's voice gradually turned into a crying voice, and a mist appeared in her eyes.
Tang An's face darkened, he really couldn't figure out how Mu Xiaoxiao did it, he cried when he wanted to, and he would cry when he said that he would shed tears.
He stepped forward helplessly, let Mu Xiaoxiao's arms wrap around his neck, and picked her up from the ground "princess".
The sun was almost out of sight, and the eastern sky was already covered with a deep blue, Tang An hugged Mu Xiaoxiao and walked along a small street next to Beichen Avenue in the direction of home.
They live in the photo gathering area, and it takes about half an hour to walk back from here.
The small street was very quiet, Mu Xiaoxiao lay in Tang An's arms, closed her eyes comfortably, as if she was about to fall asleep.
As for Tang An, his mind had drifted back many years ago.
Tang An and Mu Xiaoxiao are both orphans, I used to hear the old people in the orphanage say that Tang An was abandoned in front of the orphanage eighteen years ago, Tang An was almost out of breath at that time, and he didn't think that he would "come back to life" later, and the people in the institute were all fated. The old director of the orphanage was surnamed Tang, so he took Tang as his surname and named him An, which means that the child will be safe in the future.
Mu Xiaoxiao arrived later than Tang An, at that time, Mu Xiaoxiao was the treasure of the old people in the hospital, her laughter seemed to have a magical healing ability, and the old dean praised her when she was alive "It's just an angel who has fallen into the mortals".
Later, the alliance changed its policy, and all the younger children were sent to the alliance to be cultivated together, and children over the age of fourteen could be assigned to a small residence, and Tang An and Mu Xiaoxiao also moved out of the orphanage at that time.
Thinking of this, Tang An looked at the well-behaved Mu Xiaoxiao in his arms, maybe only when he was asleep, Mu Xiaoxiao could be regarded as an angel. The rest of the time, it is clear that he is an out-and-out big demon king, and he is making a lot of trouble.
"Bang Bang"
Two gunshots broke the silence on the side of the street, and Mu Xiaoxiao was so frightened that she opened her eyes.
"What's going on, someone dares to shoot in Base City!" Mu Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little angry when she got up, with a displeased expression written on her face.
Tang An put down Mu Xiaoxiao, pulled her to quickly find a corner to hide, and poked his head out to look at the scene in front of him.
On the other side of the corner, a man in a bizarre uniform chases a woman with a gun in his hand. The woman's steps were already a little staggering, and she didn't think she could hold on for long.
"You'd better stop, maybe you can suffer a little less."
The man behind shouted at the woman, the voice hoarse, like the roar of a wild beast.
Ran Chuling's eyes were a little dark, the scenery around her was spinning, and she knew that she was about to lose her hand. In a trance, she saw a corner in front of her, so she gritted her teeth and rushed forward with a quicker pace—the winding alleys were obviously more conducive to escape than the empty streets.
Tang An hid behind the corner, obviously having discovered Ran Chuling's intentions, pulled up Mu Xiaoxiao and was about to stay away, but he was stunned when he turned around.
This alley is a dead end! ...
"Bang!"
With another gunshot, Ran Chuling finally rushed to the corner, her left leg seemed to have been shot again, her center of gravity was unstable, and she fell straight in front of Tang An.
"Help... Help me..."She raised her hand slightly and looked at Tang An, her eyes full of pleading.
The man in the back knew that he had been shot, and he was no longer in a hurry, and walked over unhurriedly with heavy steps, scolding in his mouth:
"You little girlie is running quite fast, I've already told you, obedient and obedient, so as for suffering from this, box box box box"
Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer behind, Ran Chuling felt desperate.
Tang An sighed, looked at the wall behind him, and then looked at Mu Xiaoxiao, and said in his heart, this time he couldn't hide.
