In the large living room of the palace suite, Hinata Naine was lying bored on the Changsha side. She tilted her head upside down and could just see a corner of the restaurant opposite, vaguely seeing Li Mengxi's posture of writing at the desk, and the stack of books borrowed from the city library piled up on the table around him.

After solving a riddle a few days ago and successfully obtaining the chess pieces, Li Mengxi worked harder, and it can be said that he devoted himself wholeheartedly. But it didn't come to fruition.

And the more this happens, the more energy he puts into it, and now it is to the extent that he can't go out of the door. If there is any information outside, it will be up to Nayin Hinata to bring it back.

Naon Hinata has been out there for the past few days to experience the fun of the city. But no matter how much fun she had outside, as long as she came back and saw Li Mengxi's appearance, she would immediately turn from joy to sorrow.

But she really couldn't judge whether she should stop Li Mengxi from continuing. Because, the current situation may really be a little bad.

Originally, when the two of them came to the city, the eleven chess pieces had been reduced by five. Following the chess pieces they found in the "Earthshaker Water Hip Pavilion", two more have been reduced in the past few days. In other words, a total of eight pieces have been found, and only three remain.

From the perspective of Li Mengxi, who insists on participating in the boss strategy, this situation is really urgent.

At this moment, Hinata Nain can't say anything like "stop and rest for a few days". Although she did feel that Li Mengxi should rest.

But when it comes to helping, she is really powerless.

What can I do?

Naine Hinata is also thinking about this today.

"Whew!" At this moment, a very clear exhalation sound came from the restaurant.

Hearing this, Nane Hinata immediately jumped up from the sofa and rushed into the restaurant with a happy face.

"You've solved the riddle, haven't you?"

Hearing this, Li Mengxi looked up at Naine Hinata who seemed to be happier than himself rather unexpectedly, and then nodded with a smile.

"I think so. ”

"That's right! What the hell is the mystery?"

"Let's talk as we go. I don't want to be preempted by anyone else. ”

"Hmm. That's right. ”

After that, the two changed into combat uniforms and left the hotel where they were staying.

After following Li Mengxi on the street for some distance, Hinata Naine asked again, "How did you solve that riddle?" I remember that it seemed to be 'the place where the emperor of the Western Expedition is buried, the emperor of the Eastern Expedition is where he is located, and the true light of the Purple Microstar is where the true light of the Purple Micro Star meets', right?"

"Exactly. First of all, the emperor of the Western Expedition, I think this refers to Genghis Khan, and the place where he is buried should be talking about his mausoleum. ”

"However, I remember that Genghis Khan's mausoleum has not been found yet, right?"

"However, there are four suspected locations. The meaning of the riddle, then, should be that there are four buildings in the city that share common characteristics. Then, I investigated and found that there are indeed four palace-like buildings in the city, namely the 'Twilight Hotel', the 'Hauson Nightclub', the 'Sean Hotel', and the 'Barberry Art Gallery'. ”

"So the chess piece is hidden in one of these four places. ”

This is exactly what the second sentence is trying to illustrate. 'The Emperor of the Eastern Crusade', this can only be Alexander the Great. ”

Indeed, if there was any event that could be compared to Genghis Khan's Western Crusade, it was Alexander's Eastern Crusade. ”

"Then you must know that Alexander sat on the throne of Dareios after the fall of Persia and could not reach the platform with his feet. ”

"This is 'where it is'!"

"Well, it's telling us to use the size of the location to choose a specific location. Of the four palace buildings, three are exactly the same size, with the exception of the 'Barboree Art Gallery', which is twice as large. ”

"It's like the throne of Dareios for Alexander. Saying that, Hinata Nain couldn't help but smile, "So, what does the last sentence 'where the true light of the purple microstar meet' mean?"

"This is kept secret for the time being, and I'll tell you when I get to the place. With a wicked smile, Li Mengxi quickened his pace.

"You're too good at bullying people, aren't you?" Hinata shouted in a coquettish voice, then regained a faint smile and followed closely.

Soon the two of them arrived at the "Barboree Art Gallery" in the northeast of the city, which is a magnificent building that resembles a Greek temple.

After Li Mengxi completed the admission procedures in the reception hall, he couldn't wait to lead Hinata Nayin straight to a place called "Xinghui Palace".

Beautiful! That's what Nane Hinata felt at first sight.

The entire Xinghui Palace is a space of cylinders and semi-domes, all covered with obsidian, and inlaid with shining diamonds, which basically simulates the starry sky at night.

"Here! This is where the chess pieces will finally hide!"

Hearing the call, Hinata Naine came back to his senses and found that Li Mengxi had already stood in the middle of the "Xinghui Palace". So, she also hurried over.

"What's going on?"

"First of all, Ziweixing is the name of the ancient Chinese astrology, and its real identity is the North Star! Then, the North Star will be replaced, α Draconia, α Ursa Minor, and the Weaver Girl who will one day succeed in the future. These stars are only called 'North Stars' when they are in a certain location. And the so-called 'place where the true rays meet' is where the light of these stars meets. There's only one place for us, and that's here!"

As he spoke, Li Mengxi stretched out his hand and pointed to a place in front of his right toe where there were no stars at all.

"Although the Big Dipper is changing, the position of this throne will not move!"

"Well, the chess pieces are here!"

"Well, as for the method of obtaining it, it should be similar to when handling lobsters. ”

As he spoke, Li Mengxi took out a red sword and stabbed straight towards the target location.

The sound of "bang" echoed in the "Starlight Palace", but the obsidian ground was not damaged in the slightest.

This situation was completely unexpected by Li Mengxi, and he had no choice but to raise his sword. Immediately, a window popped up with the words "Non-destructible object" written in red text.

Seeing this, the excitement that the two of them had accumulated up until just now was suddenly extinguished by a basin of cold water called "reality". They fell into an awkward silence at the same time.

After a long time, Hinata Naine came back to her senses and said worriedly, "Maybe there is another way." ”

"Nope. Nayin, I guessed wrong. Li Mengxi lowered his head and replied with some loss.

"Even so, don't be frustrated. By the way, I've heard that there is a bar called 'Emperor' that has a very delicious specialty, let's try it together. Eat something nice, then take a good rest and move on tomorrow with a different mindset. ”

"I'm sorry, you can go by yourself. ”

Hearing this, Hinata Naine was stunned for a moment, and then showed an angry expression. Because, she understood that Li Mengxi wanted to go back and solve the mystery by herself. Although she couldn't explain the reason, she just felt that if Li Mengxi didn't stop now, she would become gray again.

"No! you must listen to me now!"

"You just go alone, why do you have to drag me?" Li Mengxi's voice was mixed with a little irritability.

Even if it was a little, Hinata could still hear it, but she didn't back down.

"Because, you're tired!

"There's no time to rest now!"

"I can't get anything in this little time!"

"Maybe it's in the time you say you're talking about, what will happen!"

"But it's probably nothing!"

"You're making trouble!"

"Even if that's the case, it's because I'm worried about you! Mengxi, have you forgotten again? Don't just stare ahead, look around. ”

"That's what needs to be divided! Now is not the time to look around! Your self-righteous kindness is no different from malice to me!"

As soon as the words came out, Li Mengxi immediately felt that something was wrong, but the words he said were like spilled water, and they couldn't be taken back if they had already hurt someone.

Nane Hinata took a few steps back, a few glints of light in her eyes.

"That's right. You're a hero! You're a hero! You're just a stink in your room!"

The words were closed, and Hinata Nain turned around and ran away.

Li Mengxi wanted to stop her, but couldn't speak, and wanted to catch up, but couldn't take a step. He stood where he was, alone.
