Chapter 85: Zitang Pavilion

"So her identity isn't that simple?"

"Of course." Magellan said leisurely: "Although Tang Moli is not married, before coming to the metropolis, Zeng Huaxia gave birth to a child with a woman. That kid was Twilight.

"That Twilight doesn't seem to know about it."

The woman named Sally showed a suddenly realized expression: "No wonder you want Chux to catch Twilight, if she is in our hands, we are not afraid that the Tang Sect will not cooperate." ”

"That's right, this is a task given by Lord Miro, and we must complete it." Magellan gently shook the liquid in the glass.

Speaking of which, this Tang Moli is also cunning. In order to confuse the public, he also accepted a few righteous sons. If it weren't for one of us who had infiltrated the Met, I am afraid that we would have been induced by him. ”

"No wonder you didn't think about the ideas of Tang Moli's other sons in the first place."

"We can't be too high-profile in the Met just yet. Otherwise, there would be no need to borrow Chucks's wasteful hands. ”

Magellan drank the liquid in the cup and said lightly: "The taste is too light." ”

"Yes, I'll get you a new source of food tomorrow." Sally turned around and pressed a button, and the carriage baffle slowly rose, revealing a woman lying inside. The woman looked angry, with a hose stuck in her neck, and it turned out that Magellan was drinking her blood.

Sally stretched out a finger and gently swiped it at the woman's throat, and the woman completely lost her breath.

Early in the morning, after Lin Xi washed and combed, he did a strength exercise, took a shower, changed his clothes and came to the living room.

Kate rented a suite at the hotel, where they would both stay during the summit at the Alliance's headquarters.

With five days to go, the summit will take place in a trade building in the metropolis, which is itself a product of its own.

At the time of the summit, the building will be semi-closed, except for the building's staff, guards and related support personnel.

No other outsiders were allowed to enter, and it was already determined that in addition to Li Feng, there would be five warriors above the third order in the mansion to guard it.

This is not from a different part of the Alliance, and although it is not shown on the data, there should be at least one Fourth-Order Warrior in the HQ.

If Lin Ci wants to enter inside, he must use "formal" procedures.

When I came back, I had already learned about Tangmen in the casual conversation with Kate.

It is a Chinese organization composed of Chinese members, and its livelihood covers most of the business related to people's livelihood, which makes it extremely widely accepted.

However, there is one thing that makes Lin Ci puzzled, although Chucks is very powerful in the metropolis. But logically speaking, even if the power is so great that he can open up with the Tang Sect, he can't do such a thing.

What's more, judging from Chucks' expression and Twilight's attitude, that man's power is not big enough to compete with the Tang Sect. But he actually came to provoke, if this is the case, Lin Ci only thought of two possibilities.

One is that Chacks is premeditated, and the other is that he is paranoid.

The former should be more probable.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

With doubts in mind, he walked to the door and cautiously opened a crack in it.

Suddenly, an icy face crashed into Lin Ci's eyes. He had to concede, Twilight's face was so impactful that he was stunned for a moment, and then heard the beautiful woman outside say, "Why, don't you welcome me?" ”

"Where." Lin Ci pulled the chain bolt, opened the door, and a fragrant breeze wafted in.

Twilight Snow fell and walked in generously.

"Why is Miss Twilight here?" Lin Ci closed the door, poured a glass of water for her, and said, "I'm sorry, we don't have tea to greet you." ”

"It's okay, I'm thirsty anyway." Twilight took a sip of her cup and smiled, "My stepfather wants to meet you both." ”

Lin Ci smiled at the moment: "It's just a trivial matter, not to mention that it is to repay Miss Duxue's favor, Mr. Tang's kindness is appreciated." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Kate crashed out of the room and shouted, "No, we have to eat this meal." Miss Twilight, was this meal served at Zitang Pavilion? ”

"Exactly." Twilight smiled and nodded.

Lin Ci didn't want to waste his time on meaningless entertainment. It can be seen that Kate is in high spirits. It seems that as long as there is twilight snow, he has to pinch it up.

Lin Ci turned around and spread his hands to Kate. The latter understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "You don't know, Zitang Pavilion is a restaurant with the highest specifications under the Tang Sect, and the people who come to the door are all noble, not to mention that Miss Duxue personally invited them." ”

Since Kate said so, he couldn't take care of Twilight and Tangmen's good intentions, so he hesitated for a moment and said, "But I don't have a suit." ”

Zitang Pavilion is one of the top restaurants in the metropolis Chinese restaurant, and it is natural to dress appropriately when entering and exiting.

Twilight smiled: "Zitang Pavilion is a Chinese restaurant, if you like it, I can take you to buy a few Tang shirts and gowns to try?" ”

Before Lin Ci agreed, Kate had already rushed to say, "I want it too, I want it too." ”

"You? I'm afraid that it won't be decent when I put it on. Twilight laughed.

Kate immediately pulled out a bitter face.

Eventually, the two of them leave the hotel with Twilight and get into a car. Behind this car, there are two more Chevrolets. Three cars were driving on the streets of the metropolis, and although it was still early, the streets of the metropolis were already full of people.

When it was almost noon, the car stopped in front of a Chinese restaurant. Lin Ci, who got off the car, had changed into a Tang costume, with vermilion as the bottom, and a golden Chinese dragon on it, with black Ruyi buckles and golden piping, which set off Lin Ci's unique style.

As for Kate, he is also wearing a Tang costume, and he looks nondescript.

Zitang Pavilion is a Chinese-style restaurant, and its style is also very Chinese, even more prominent than most restaurants in Chinese mainland.

The restaurant is designed in a palace-like shape, and there is a golden five-clawed dragon on each of the two huge vermilion pillars at the entrance, which is particularly imposing. It is no wonder that this restaurant is called Zitang Pavilion, and this faΓ§ade alone reflects the essence of the restaurant's name.

At the gate, a stone staircase extended, and on each stone step stood a young man in Tang costume. They stood on two sides, and when Twilight Xue led Lin and the two up the stone steps, they shouted in unison, "Good afternoon, Fourth Miss!" ”

"Welcome Mr. Lin!"

Lin Ci was a little confused, and Kate muttered, "What about me? What about me? ”

Twilight's expression was a little embarrassed, and she whispered, "My stepfather is a more traditional person, so he ......"

"I understand." Lin Ci was relieved, and the Tang Sect could be seen from many aspects, it was a very traditional organization.

Entering from the gate is the restaurant, the restaurant of Zitang Pavilion is like a palace in the late Qing Dynasty, with an open layout, atmospheric decoration and oriental characteristics. There is also an attic above the restaurant, from which you can see every corner of the restaurant.

Twilight Xue took Lin Ci and the two to the attic, there was originally a seat in the attic, but today all the seats were removed, and a large table was placed in the huge space cleared, and Lin Ci saw an old man when he came up. Dressed in a plain tunic suit, he was talking to a few people. Hearing the sound of footsteps, the old man looked this way, and suddenly Lin Xi only felt that he had been stabbed by a sharp sword.

The old man's gaze was sharp.

But such a sharp gaze just flashed at once, and then his eyes became calm, but Lin Xi knew that it was just an appearance.

He knew that this old man was Tang Moli, the founder of the Tang Sect. To be able to let the Tang Sect go through more than half a century without falling, Tang Moli is definitely not simple, and the gaze just now has already explained some problems.

"Father-in-law." Twilight stepped forward, took the old man's hand and said, "This is Lin Ci, Mr. Lin." ”

Tang Moli smiled, held Lin Ci's hand affectionately, patted the back of his hand and said, "Thanks to you last night, Mr. Lin." Afterwards, I couldn't help but be scared when I heard Twilight's description. ”

Lin Ci bowed slightly: "The old gentleman is polite, Miss Duxue has helped me." I gave her a favor, as she should. ”

Tang Moli smiled, "Compared to what you did, the little favor that Twilight helped you is nothing. Come on, take your seats. ”

The founder of the Tang Sect was good at dancing with long sleeves, and warmly invited Lin Ci to sit down, but he did not snub Kate.

Tang Moli has already prepared everything, from food to wine, nothing has been left behind.

A man with a Chinese face next to him suddenly raised his wine and said, "Come, Mr. Lin." I toast you. ”

Twilight whispered beside her, "This is my eldest brother, Tai'an." ”

Lin Ci had a drink with him, and Tang Moli said with a smile on his face, "I heard from Twilight Xue that you seem to be looking for a job. Mr. Lin, with your skills and courage, why don't you come to Tangmen to help? ”

When the Tang Gate was entertaining Lin Ci, at the corner of the street opposite Zitang Pavilion, a locomotive stopped.

On the locomotive sat a woman in a white leather pants, none other than Nicole, Magellan's men. She got the information from Chax, and learned that Lin Ci was invited to Zitang Pavilion as a guest today, so she immediately came over.

Nicole didn't take Tangmen seriously, after all, for xenos, how much energy can an ordinary person's organization have?

Her real purpose is Lin Xi.

At this moment, Nicole put on her helmet and kept increasing the throttle. Finally, the locomotive let out a roar and drove straight towards the gate of Zitang Pavilion Restaurant.

At the gate, the people of the Tang Sect immediately noticed the abnormality and stepped forward to stop them. But before they could speak, Nike lifted the front of the locomotive with force, and the whole locomotive flew over their heads.

A few of them were knocked out by the rear wheels, and the locomotive fell to the stone steps, whistling up the stone steps, and crashing straight into the gate.

In the attic, Lin Xi had just finished saying his made-up excuse when he heard the roar of a locomotive outside the gate. When I turned my head, I saw a locomotive crash into the door and land in the restaurant. Today, in order to entertain Lin Ci, Tang Moli specially asked the restaurant to suspend business. The restaurant is basically full of children of the Tang Sect, and when they see this situation, they don't panic. At that moment, someone closed the door first, and then a middle-aged man stepped forward and shouted: "What kind of person, today's Tang Men banquet guests, I will not entertain outsiders." ”

Nicole naturally didn't talk nonsense with him, and when she raised her hand, she already had an extra Uzi submachine gun in her hand, and she raised her gun and shot at the middle-aged man. This is a small leader of the Tang Sect, but he is also quite skilled. When Nicole pulled the gun, he had already rolled on the spot, and Nicole shot through.

Lin Ci stood up immediately, and Twilight Xue, who was sitting next to him, said softly, "It's okay, just sit down." ”

Tang Moli chuckled and said: "Duxue is right, Mr. Lin is a guest today, and on the one-acre and three-point land of Tangmen, how can there be a reason to ask guests to do it." ”

He looked at Tai'an, who stood up, gestured, and left the attic to the other group in the hall.

The children of the Tang Gate under the attic have exchanged fire with Nicole, they use the pillar of the restaurant as a cover, and everyone shoots at Nicole with a pistol, although Nicole has a submachine gun in her hand, but after all, there are many people in the Tang Gate. In a few moments, he had been shot frequently, and blood lines were popping out of his body. But as if unconscious, she screwed the accelerator and rushed towards the attic stairs.

When her locomotive came to the attic, Lin Ci suddenly felt a strange movement, and he was suddenly shocked, knowing that the woman was not an ordinary person, but a different species!

"Kate!" Lin Ci stood up suddenly, and this action made Twilight Xue and Tang Moli next to him stunned.

Lin Ci didn't care much, Tang Moli was able to be so calm, it was because he thought that the female knight downstairs was just an ordinary killer, but it was a different species, and the people of the Tang Sect couldn't stop her at all.

Kate looked at Lin Ci with a curious expression, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"I don't have time to eat this now, there's a xenomorph down there, she's dangerous, so now, it's time for you to make a move."

"What?" Kate's mouth opened wide: "Are you sure?" ”

Kate gulped the food in her mouth and hurried towards the staircase with a low curse.

Lin Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, there were too many people here, if it wasn't necessary, he didn't want to be bloody.

"Twilight, and Mr. Donald. Get out of here, it's dangerous. Lin Ci hurriedly said.

Tang Moli frowned and said, "Mr. Lin, although our Tang Sect is not a first-class organization, we can deal with a killer ......."

What he meant was that it was naturally more than enough to deal with a killer.

Lin Xi immediately said: "That's not an ordinary killer, now I can't say a word." Believe me and get out of here. ”

Twilight suddenly said, "Isn't that the kind of thing?" ”

Although he didn't know exactly what she was referring to, Lin Ci's intuition told him that this woman knew about the existence of xenos.

Twilight suddenly became nervous, and helped Tang Moli and said, "Father-in-law, we have to listen to Lin Xi." If it's that kind of thing, Big Brother and the others are useless at all. ”

"I'm confused about what you're talking about." Tang Moli said.

"I'll explain it to you later, I'll see if I can help." Lin Ci walked out.

Twilight was stunned and said, "Mr. Lin, are you and Kate the same kind of people?" ”

"Sort of."

Twilight Xue didn't talk anymore and left with Tang Moli and several other Tang disciples. Lin Xicai ran to the staircase, and on the stairs Nicole had already rushed up with a locomotive, and the people from Tai'an and Tangmen pulled out their guns and bombarded.

Nicole didn't dodge at all, and rushed up against the rain of bullets. The throttle was pressed to the bottom, and the locomotive roared like a steel monster and rushed up, looking like it was about to crash into Tai'an and the others.
