Wolf Manor is on the north side of West Vancouver, near Capilano Suspension Bridge Park. The manor house is an elaborate French-style building that covers an area of more than two square kilometers. The main building of the estate is built on the high ground in the center, with a very open view, standing on the terrace of the main building, you can see the entire affluent area of West Vancouver and the coastline of Ballard Bay in the distance, with a large green forest behind it.

In front of the mansion is a straight boulevard that serves as the central axis of the estate, passing through the extensive main garden, with a secondary axis on each side of the garden, and three longitudinal avenues and several horizontal axes intersecting to form a rigorous grid. At the intersection of these grid lines, there are many fountains, carvings and garden pieces, which appear simple and bright, without the slightest feeling of piling up.

The boulevard stretches straight ahead, pointing straight to the neighborhood of West Vancouver. From there, take Route 99 east to North Vancouver, and south to the Lions Gate Bridge and through the famous Stanley Park to South Vancouver, the real downtown Vancouver.

The meeting place agreed between the second leader and Huang Liang was in Stanley Park.

It is an island park, right in Ballard Bay, and is the largest park in North America. It connects downtown Vancouver to the south, and the Lions Gate Bridge to the north is the gateway to San Francisco's affluent neighborhood.

The park is full of beautiful redwood trees, a rose garden and a miniature golf course, and a 22-kilometre fitness trail loops around the island, making it a paradise for joggers and cyclists.

Huang Liang rode a bicycle to Stanley Park.

The bike was lent to him by Martha. He told Hong Kui that he wanted to go to downtown Vancouver, and Hong Kui was going to send a car to see him off, but he refused on the grounds that he wanted to familiarize himself with the roads and relax. This reason is not false, after all, since he came to Vancouver, he has only spent two places in Professor Dickinson's house and Wolf Manor.

When he came out of the manor in the morning, he met Martha and asked Martha about the bus route and time to the city center. Martha asked him where he was going, and he said it was just a casual stroll, and then said it would be nice to have a bike.

Martha took him to the parking garage, where many bicycles were parked. She looked at the puzzled Huang Liang and said, "There's nothing strange about this, Doctor Huang, the old man takes the car when he goes in and out, and we can't do it." With such a large estate, sometimes it's more convenient to ride a bike. ”

She pointed to the bike, "You can ride as much as you want, it's unlocked." Those ones are electric, but you'll have to charge them in the southern city, or you'll probably not have enough to come back. ”

Martha was very welcoming, and Huang Liang felt that she was sincere, not out of polite perfunctory or pretended hospitality like a large family servant.

He said, "Thank you, Martha, you are such a nice person. ”

"You don't have to be so polite!" Martha smiled shallowly, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and the faint freckles on her face showed a little playful and cute in the morning light.

He rode his bike to Stanley Park. There are already many cyclists in the park, all of them riding in full gear, but he is still wearing his usual clothes, and he does not even have a helmet. He rode to the west of the English Bay, where a few old men had already set up their fishing tackle and sat leisurely fishing.

Huang Liang opened the map on his mobile phone and looked at it, confirmed that the location was not wrong, and found a secluded place, parked the car, and sat down on a park bench.

The park was sparsely populated in the early morning, and he scrutinized everyone who passed in front of him. To be honest, he's a little nervous right now. He wasn't sure if the person on the phone was the second leader, because the phone had changed and he couldn't tell the gender of the other person. The other party didn't tell him the connector code or anything, just asked him to wait here.

"Doctor Huang!"

Huang Liang heard someone calling out to him behind him, and this familiar voice made his heart skip a beat.

He turned around and saw a playful-looking Martha standing there with a flower basket in her hand, looking at him with a grin.

"Martha? ……”

Huang Liang stood up and looked at her in disbelief. He really didn't think it would be Martha, but then he thought it seemed reasonable, both in terms of her identity and the time she called him, except that she was a little younger.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you by your name." Huang Liang paused, thinking about what to call Martha, it was obviously inappropriate to call the leader, and it didn't seem right to call Mrs.

Martha looked innocent, "Why can't you call me by my name?" That's what everybody calls me! ”

"But......" Huang Liang hesitated.

"Don't do it, just call me Martha." Martha walked briskly like a bird and sat down on the bench, "Aren't you going to the city center?" I knew you were coming to Stanley Park, we could have walked together, but I haven't ridden out in a long time since my lord's illness became serious! ”

"You ......"

Huang Liang was a little suspicious of his initial judgment, Martha didn't look like she was deliberately teasing him, and now there was no one on the side, and there was no need to hide it, was it really a coincidence?

"Didn't you come by bike?" He asked without words, which could be regarded as a temptation.

"No, Brandon drove me here, and he was waiting for me in the parking lot over there." Martha held up the basket in her hand and said, "I'm going to pick roses in the rose garden." Mr. Wolf liked the roses here, and he said that the roses elsewhere were not as good as the roses in Stanley Park, and he liked to smell them, and every time he was seriously ill, he would feel a little more comfortable smelling the roses. ”

"Can you pick any roses in the park?"

"Of course others can't, but we can. The rose garden and golf course in Stanley Park are maintained at Wolfe's expense, and the island's yacht club is family-owned. Half of Vancouver's public facilities were built by the Wolf family, for which the City Hall presented a trophy to the lord! Master Wolf is a good man, he will be fine, do you say yes, Dr. Huang? ”

Martha looked at the sea in the distance, which was calm and unwavering, but deep and blue.

Her words made Huang Liang even more confused, was this a temptation?

"Uh...... I'm not sure......" He didn't know how to answer.

"You must have a way, right?" Martha turned her face and looked at him earnestly.

"Maybe." Huang Liang said.

"No, I'm sure you have a way." Martha said with certainty.

"Why...... It's me? "What Huang Liang actually wants to ask is, why did you choose to let me come to North America?

"You're not the same as the doctors who treated my lord in the past...... Well...... I can't tell, but in short, you're special, from the first time I saw you. Martha said with confidence

"Is there anything I need to do?" Huang Liang continued to probe tentatively.

"What to do? ......" Martha looked at the yellow sorghum, suddenly laughed happily, raised the empty basket in her hand and said, "You can accompany me to pick roses!" ”

After she finished speaking, she stood up, grabbed Huang Liang's arm, and walked towards the path ahead. She jumped and jumped as she walked, like a happy bird.

At this moment, Huang Liang remembered his sister again, when he was a child, he also dragged his brother's hand and went to the field to pick wild vegetables.

Just as he was following Martha in a trance, he suddenly saw Dickinson coming towards him. He carried a fishing rod, a net and a bucket, and a large bag on his back.

As soon as Huang Liang saw him, he thought of the chip in his neck, which was emitting radio waves into the sky.
