Chapter 25: Change of Plans

More than half an hour passed unconsciously, the sky was already dark, and people had already appeared in the alley, and some vendors who bought breakfast had begun to set up stalls in the alley.

Yang Tao bought himself two scallion oil flatbreads and ate them with soy milk.

To be honest, he tossed too much with Liu Yan last night, and his stomach was already hungry, and after eating two flatbreads at the moment, he felt better.

thought that in this life, he should be able to solve the trouble of Poplar faster, but he didn't want things to be out of his control in the end.

Although he knew that there were still two years before the alien invasion, as long as that time came, he believed that fate would eventually return to the right track, but he was not willing to wait for two years like this.

Today is the second day since he came out of the base, and he only asked the team leader for two days off, which means that he has to rush back to the base tomorrow anyway, or he will be severely punished.

Don't look at the signboard of S.H.I.E.L.D., it looks very tall, and when you go out, you are superior, but in fact, it is all an illusion.

S.H.I.E.L.D. is a very strict organizational department, except for the Xiuzhen group and the special action group, other group members can't act privately at all, and even go out to see who they need to make a detailed report when they return to the base, just like this time when he looks for Zhao Wenhu's help, it is actually an illegal operation, once it is verified, it will be a big demerit.

And the reason why Yang Tao acted so boldly naturally had his confidence.

Before that, in order to avoid causing the butterfly effect as much as possible, he had been trying to hide his strength, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, because accidents have appeared.

In this case, he can only change his plan, he plans to show his strong strength as much as possible after he returns, and it is best to enter the Xiuzhen group in the name of a monk, and then he can openly borrow the power of the state to help him find out the poplar.

But before that, he still needs to go to another place, and if it still doesn't work out in the end, then he can only choose this path.

Facing the dawn sun, Yang Tao came to the suburbs of the west of Hangzhou.

It looks desolate, with little sign of tall buildings except for a few construction sites where tall cranes are exposed.

Yang Tao looked for the address in his mobile phone and came to a small two-story building in the west of the city.

The information in the mobile phone shows that this two-story small building is the house of Baiyang's parents.

To be honest, when Yang Tao learned that Baiyang's parents still had such a house in Hangzhou, he was a little incredulous.

Because he once heard Poplar talk about his family environment, that is, the poor are almost unable to eat.

Although this is just a private house on the outskirts of Hangzhou, it is also a house in Hangzhou, if it is taken out and sold, it can be worth one or two million, not to mention a rich family, and it is not a problem to solve food and clothing.

Could it be that what Poplar told him before was a lie? Originally, he thought that the other party was quite honest when he first left the earth, but now that he thinks about it, it is quite ridiculous, it turns out that this guy is essentially a selfish ghost who lies a lot, which strengthens his determination to kill the other party.

Yang Tao did not break into the door directly, but chose to wait quietly by a river not far from Bai Yang's house.

As time passed, the sky grew brighter and brighter, and the calm streets began to gradually become noisy.

I saw that the gate of the courtyard of the house suddenly opened, and a motorcycle was pushed out of it.

A middle-aged man with dark skin and half-white hair walked out of the yard pushing a motorcycle, followed by a middle-aged woman wearing a hard hat.

After closing the gate, the two quickly drove away on their motorcycles, apparently on their way to work.

Although Yang Tao didn't know them, he could roughly guess from the information provided by Li Hongyuan that they should be Bai Yang's parents.

He didn't rush to do it, because he knew that Poplar had a younger sister, and for him, little girls' willpower was often weak, barely enough to allow him to cast the Ecstasy Spell.

After about half an hour, the door of the courtyard was opened again, and a little girl with a schoolbag walked out of it.

Seeing the target appear, Yang Tao immediately followed secretly.

He saw the little girl wandering outside a breakfast shop for a while, and then turned away, and when the other party passed a small park, he quickly rushed over, put a little on the sleeping hole on the other's shoulder, and then quickly picked her up and ran towards the park.

The reason why he chose to do it in this place is because there are no people here yet.

Yang Tao carried Baiyang's sister to the forest in the small park, quickly bit his finger, and drew a strange symbol on the other party's forehead.

After doing all this, he immediately hugged the other party's head with both hands, closed his eyes, and made a strange sound in his mouth.

When he opened his eyes again, the little girl sitting across from him also opened her eyes, but the other's eyes looked dull and lifeless.

"What's your name?"

"Zhao Yingying."

Yang Tao couldn't help but be stunned, and said secretly, could it be that Li Hongyuan made a mistake?

"Do you recognize Yang Tao?" He asked tentatively.

I saw Zhao Yingying reply with a blank expression: "I know." ”

Hearing that the two knew each other, Yang Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's your relationship?"

"He's my brother."

Yang Tao couldn't help but be stunned, is the secret road really a brother and sister? Why is one surnamed Bai and one surnamed Zhao?

"Brother and sister?" He confirmed.

"No, he's my stepmother's son." Zhao Yingying replied calmly.

Stepmother? Yang Tao felt that Baiyang's family background was a little complicated, but the purpose of his search this time was not to investigate the other party's family, but to find Baiyang through the little girl in front of him.

Now that he has confirmed that the little girl in front of him is Poplar's sister, he naturally does not plan to continue to waste time, after all, although this park is less crowded, as the sky gets brighter and brighter, there will definitely be more people.

"Do you know where Aspen is?" Yang Tao asked.

"I don't know." Zhao Yingying replied.

"Has he been back recently?" Yang Tao asked with a frown.

"My brother hasn't been back for almost half a year." Zhao Yingying said.

Yang Tao was simply stunned, he remembered that Bai Yang once told him that he also studied in Hangzhou, which made him a little unimaginable that a person whose home was also in Hangzhou could not go home for more than half a year, which made his impression of Bai Yang more and more bad, and he felt that he was really blind at that time, and he believed in the other party so much, regarded such a cold-blooded person as his brother, and even almost gave his life in vain to save the other party.

"Hasn't he been back in the last few days?" Yang Tao still asked with some reluctance, although he knew that what Zhao Yingying said was very likely to be true, but now for him, if he still couldn't find Baiyang today and solve him, then the rest of the matter would be completely beyond his control, and he really didn't want the situation to be so bad.

But with Zhao Yingying's answer, the hope in his heart was finally shattered.

"Nope."

Yang Tao glanced at the little girl in front of him with a somewhat complicated expression, and finally he sighed, put down the palm holding the girl's head, and turned around and walked out of the woods.

After a while, a little girl came out of the woods, and she looked at the woods behind her with a confused expression, and looked around curiously, and thought for a long time before discovering where it was, which surprised her, for she really couldn't remember how she had suddenly entered this little park.

Suddenly, she exclaimed in distress, remembering that she was about to be late for class, so she didn't want to dig into why she had inexplicably walked into the park, and ran out of the park.

Liu Yan had a very beautiful dream, in which she and Yang Tao came to a world full of flowers, and the two chased and frolicked in the sea of flowers, and even did all kinds of things that made people blush.

But as an alarm went off, she woke up from her dream.

She closed her eyes and reached out to pat the quilt beside her, but she didn't want to shoot it empty, which made her startled and quickly sat up from the bed.

She opened her hazy eyes, as if trying to find something in the room, but she rubbed them vigorously because she had just woken up and couldn't see clearly.

Her eyes finally regained her vision, but when she saw that the room was empty, her heart sank.

Her clothes were discarded messily on the ground, and she knew that Yang Tao had left, although Yang Tao told her that he couldn't stay here for a long time after the two of them were crazy last night, but she didn't take it seriously at the time, because she wanted the other party to understand that she was willing to be by his side no matter where he went.

It's just that before she could say it, she found that the other party had left, which made her sad and remorseful at the same time.

Liu Yan sat on the bed with her knees crossed, her head buried deep in her chest, her eyes staring blankly ahead, tears streaming down her red eyes.

I don't know how long time has passed, and the mobile phone on the bedtable rang and stopped, stopped and rang, but Liu Yan was as if she didn't realize it, and her whole expression seemed to be very trance.

Eventually, when the phone rang for the fifth time, she came to her senses.

Only then did she remember that she had made an appointment with a few sisters yesterday to volunteer at a nursing home this morning.

"Men are not a good thing." For some reason, this sentence that her mother had gritted her teeth in front of her when she was a child suddenly came to her mind.

Originally, she thought that her mother was too extreme, but at this moment she found that this sentence was really very reasonable.

After reorganizing her mood, she decided not to think about Yang Tao anymore, and then she reached out and picked up her phone.

Yang Tao did not give up and sneaked into Baiyang's hometown, but in the end he still failed to find the other party's trace, which made him unwilling and full of helplessness at the same time.

He walked down the street blankly, watching the traffic whizz past him, but he didn't know where he was going.

It wasn't until he came to a small bridge aimlessly that he came back to his senses, and he dialed Zhao Wenhu's phone.

"Xiao Yang, why did you call my brother suddenly?" Zhao Wenhu's enthusiastic and heroic voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Brother Hu, I'm going back to Beijing to report on my work soon, and I want to ask you about something." Yang Tao said respectfully.

"Xiao Yang, why are you going back to Beijing so soon, didn't my brother say it, let you stay in Hangzhou for a few more days, and my brother will do his best to be a landlord." Zhao Wenhu blamed rather dissatisfied.

"Brother Hu, I can't help it, the discipline of the organization can't be bad, if Brother Hu comes to Beijing, the younger brother will definitely apologize to Brother Hu in person." Yang Tao said helplessly.

"Haha, there is no need to apologize, just accompany my brother to have a few more drinks when the time comes." Zhao Wenhu laughed and said.

"Okay, don't talk about a few cups, a few bottles of the little brother are also out of the way." Yang Tao replied with a smile.

"That's what you said, don't play tricks when the time comes, you must know that now your brother Hongyuan is also sitting on the side, and I have witnesses here." Zhao Wenhu laughed.
