Chapter 15 Borrowing

Xiao An and I were still asleep, when I felt someone pinch my nose, and suddenly a feeling of suffocation came, and I woke up from my dream in an instant.

"Xiuxiu, what are you doing?" I looked out the window at the slightly pale sky, estimated to be four or five o'clock in the morning.

"It's dawn, get up and follow me somewhere." As she spoke, she walked out, and Xiao An was also awakened at this time.

Xiao An was going to follow, but Xiuxiu firmly disagreed, and finally under my persuasion, Xiao An agreed to stay here and wait for me to come back.

The place we went to was a local pharmaceutical company, which is also a relatively influential company in the local area. But at this time, most people are still asleep, what are we going to do there? Is it to steal while people are not at work? When I asked questions, she didn't answer, just buried herself in the drive.

In about half an hour, we arrived at the door of the enterprise. The gate was closed, the twilight was fading, and the sky was still dark and hazy before the dawn came. Xiuxiu walked straight to the pedestrian passage gate on the side of the gate, pressed a few numbers on a numeric keypad with her hand, and the turnstile opened in response, and the two of us walked in quickly.

Facing the gate, a path runs straight inward, and two or three stories of plane trees cover the path tightly. There are rows of office buildings scattered on both sides, and the gray and white corresponding floors make this large courtyard in the early morning a little gloomy. After walking through about seven or eight rows of buildings, the style of the buildings behind suddenly changed, the original gray and white style became orange and yellow, and the height was much shorter than the previous buildings, if you look at it from a distance, it can even be completely blocked by the tall plane trees.

Xiuxiu led me straight to the building on the right.

Taking the elevator up, I saw the button of the elevator, there were three floors above ground and five floors underground. Because the floor buttons of the elevator are arranged from -5 up to 3. We took the elevator straight up to the top three floors.

As soon as we got out of the elevator, we were greeted by a man in a white coat, a mask and a white hat, and when he saw us, he hesitated slightly. Then he bent down slightly at Xiuxiu, "Hello Miss."

Xiuxiu didn't stop, waved at the man, and the man entered the elevator and left. Out of the elevator room, a short corridor, there are about a dozen rooms on the left and right, the lights in the corridor are a little dim, I didn't look carefully, just kept guessing in my heart what she was going to do here.

We stopped at the door of one of the rooms, and Xiuxiu knocked on the door twice, and a voice came from inside, "Come in."

The door was pushed open and the room was simply furnished. A few wooden Taishi chairs leaned against a wall, and in the middle was a huge pot of coral-like things, which I had never seen before, and I didn't know if it was alive or a handicraft. At one end of the room, there was a large office desk, and behind the table was a boss chair, on which sat a middle-aged man with a stubble on his face. There are some ancient murals on the wall behind him, I don't know if they are painted or inlaid with wall tiles.

As soon as we walked into the room, we saw the man's hand shake, and something flew over with a "whoosh". Before I could see what it was, I saw Xiuxiu leaning back, her feet off the ground one after another, and quickly turning in a circle in the air, her movements were so fast that she might not even have a second. When she stood still again, she heard a "bang" on the wall behind the man, and something was nailed to the wall. I suddenly saw the man tilt his head just now, and now he realized that she was hiding from the past. Just now I just thought Xiuxiu was doing a somersault to dodge the flying thing, but I didn't expect her to kick it back with her foot between the lightning and flint. Now compared to her skills, my little kung fu can really be described as a three-legged cat.

"Papapa" The man clapped his palms and stood up, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but Miss's kung fu has grown again."

"Uncle He, don't come here to be harmed" Xiuxiu took two more steps forward and said politely to the man.

"Hehe, I'm okay. Do you have any instructions here? The man still smiled and said unhurriedly.

"Nope. I'm here for private business, to visit a friend. Knowing that Uncle He was here, he came to visit. Xiuxiu also said with a smile.

Hearing Xiuxiu say this, the man immediately glanced at me. Then he said, "Miss Fei, is this looking for someone you like?" ”

Xiuxiu also looked at me embarrassedly, and then smiled: "I wanted to find one, but someone got the first step." This is the announcement made a few days ago, the new Wang Yu. As she spoke, she looked at me again.

"Oh.." The man looked suddenly enlightened and patted his head, "Look at my memory." Then he pointed at me again and said, "Your kid is blessed, I have seen Xiaojing's girl, and she is energetic." ”

"Uncle He, I still need your help with some small things when I come here this time." Xiuxiu saw that this man was going to lead the topic to me, so she changed the subject.

When Uncle He heard this, he immediately restrained the smile on his face, "Miss can tell me something, who doesn't know that you are the future head of the family." ”

"Uncle He, don't say that, the Huo family can have today is all thanks to you pillars. I usually help my grandmother run errands and pass on a word. The future Huo family still has to rely on you. Xiuxiu's words were as calm as water, but I could hear that there was a mixture of whiskers and horses.

However, it was obvious that Uncle He was very useful, and then a smile leaked from his face again, "If Miss has anything, just say it, as long as I can do it, I will do my best." ”

"This matter is a piece of cake for Uncle He, I just want to borrow a few people." Xiuxiu then said.

After hearing this, Uncle He obviously didn't expect it to be such a trivial matter, he said, "Oh? After a while, he asked again: "Miss, are you going to fight or..."

"No," Xiuxiu interrupted Uncle He without waiting for her to finish, "I just want to go to the southwest to explore the ruins of an ancient city, which can be regarded as a favor for a friend." The target may be in the mountains and forests, and I need some equipment, but I didn't bring anyone with me this time, and there are not enough people. ”

Uncle He held his chin in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then said, "How many people does Miss plan to have?" ”

"Ten, ten is enough," Xiuxiu said quickly.

Uncle He readily agreed. Then he said that he would arrange it and tell him the meeting place before he left. Later, Xiuxiu and Uncle He chatted about some family matters, and Uncle He also asked Xiuxiu to say hello to Mrs. Huo on his behalf, in short, they praised each other, politely, and greeted each other, I didn't say a word, and I was a quiet visitor there.

By the time we got up to say goodbye, it was already dark outside the window. Xiuxiu looked at her watch, asked Uncle He to stay, and took me away by herself.

When we came in, we took the elevator from the first floor to the third floor, but at this time, Xiuxiu led me directly through the elevator hall to the end of the other end of the corridor, and I saw clearly that there was a door here. This door is opened by face recognition, Xiuxiu is the Huo family, and she is the future leader, of course she can open this door.

I was about to ask her what she was doing here, if there was a staircase outside. But before I could ask, she walked out first. Beyond the doorway is the ground? I was surprised, but I quickly followed.

When I came out and looked back at the building, it was a little pale. The building had three floors when I came, and now there is only one floor left. And it is slowly sinking down at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, the sinking is extremely even, without the slightest shaking, so even the people in the building are difficult to notice.

Xiuxiu seemed to sense my doubts, and she explained, "This building was designed with war in mind. The entire building is built on top of a huge elevator. At night, the building automatically rises three floors above the ground and drops to the ground during the day. In this way, the building is not only warm in winter and cool in summer, but also has the function of emergency avoidance. The important materials in this factory are in this building. Of course, it is also possible to manually raise and lower the building, but that requires the authorization of the owner. ”

I let out an "oh" and motioned to hear the whiteness. But then I said, "It seems that this Uncle He is still very good at talking." ”。

Xiuxiu just said: "You'll know after a long time." ”

Then we went back the way we came, and at this time the morning dawned, and there were already people coming and going at the gate, and it seemed that they were supposed to be people working here. The two of us ignored it and just got in the car and left.
