Chapter 55: Nidhogg
The rooftop of the sixth floor of the municipal hospital.
Chu Zihang stood by the railing, his eyes looking into the distance, and the wind blew his hair.
Lu Mingfei didn't say anything more, and also saw that Chu Zihang needed to be quiet alone, and it was true, Chu Zihang had been here for half an hour.
Beside me was the old-looking box.
It was something that Chu Tianjiao left behind.
Chu Zihang never opened it.
It should be important to be able to treasure something for the other party.
Perhaps through the contents of this box, you can know everything about Chu Tianjiao, including that man's past.
Until another ten minutes passed, Chu Zihang took a deep breath, picked up the box beside him again, and then opened it.
He didn't want to know Chu Tianjiao's past, he just wanted to know what the reason was why Chu Tianjiao was targeted by things like Odin, and what were the unknown conspiracies of all this, Chu Zihang had to figure out these things.
Because only by understanding can we better prepare and bring that man out of the abyss in the future.
However, when Chu Zihang solemnly opened the box, the corners of his forehead couldn't help twitching slightly, a little surprised.
The first thing that catches your eye in the box is neatly stacked vinyl records of classic jazz music.
Although this kind of thing looks inconspicuous, there are not many of them in existence today, and I don't know where Chu Tianjiao got it, and next to the vinyl record is a box of Cuban-made cigars, none of which are miscellaneous at all, and even each one has a unique label.
On the other level of the humidor is a small bottle of whisky, which is long back in age and is the strongest island whisky.
There's also a pocket-sized version of a vintage Hasselblad camera on the other side.
Limited edition vinyl records, Cuban cigars, island whiskey, Hasselblad cameras......
Does a driver who loves to eat braised large intestines really have such a high taste?
Chu Zihang inexplicably thought of Chu Tianjiao's face smiling when he was rubbing his feet in the bathhouse, which was a little cheap, especially when he beckoned himself to rub his back, it was even cheaper.
Now seeing that these things are neatly placed in the box, obviously they are all treasured by the other party, Chu Zihang can fully imagine that Chu Tianjiao will put these vinyl records on the side in his spare time, with Cuban cigars in his mouth, combing his hair shiny, swiping it back, revealing a handsome big back, and the muscular man wears a tight T-shirt, and then dances to the music, maybe it will be the space dance steps of Mike's "Beat It".
However, the record player may be playing the song "Sad Hotel" sung by Elvis Presley in 1956, and when the song is sung, the man blows a bottle of island whiskey.
There was also a Beretta pistol at the bottom of the box, which looked like a modified and enhanced version, next to it was a neatly stacked bullet with a cross-hatch carved on it, which can explode instantly when fired into the human body.
Chu Tianjiao may have been well disguised, he can be a character in various fields, such as a cynical prodigal, such as a melancholy prince, or even a vicious gang leader, in short, this person has many facets, but in Chu Zihang's view, Chu Tianjiao's essence is a driver who loves to eat spicy chicken wings and braised large intestines.
This impression is almost ingrained, no matter how much Chu Tianjiao's previous identity was, in Chu Zihang's opinion, it was all a disguise.
What also shocked Chu Zihang was that he found a diary from the box.
It was also something he was looking for, because it was most likely about something secret that the man knew.
Each page of the diary is filled with a variety of diagrams, and even photos and news cutouts are posted on each page, and each page is a record of rare major news and events.
For example, the Tunguska explosion on June 30, 1908, a mushroom cloud rose in the center of the explosion, and the shock wave even shattered the glass windows 650 kilometers away, and the night of the entire Eurasian continent took on a strong dark red, like blood staining the entire sky red, and like the sun rising in the east shining on the world.
……
Summer mourning on August 30, 1900.
The unexpected awakening of a mysterious corpse led to the complete destruction of the Kassel estate near Hamburg, and in that terrible battle, the entire original Lionheart was almost completely wiped out, and the only survivor was named Hilbert Jean Angers.
……
On the night of December 25, 1991, the day of the disintegration of Ula, an unusual explosion occurred in the port north of Verkhoyansk in the tundra of the Arctic Circle.
……
On November 7, 2002, a mysterious heartbeat was discovered in the waters of Greenland, and the elite of the Executive Department of the Kassel Academy encountered a terrible attack like a dragon king in the depths of the ice sea during the investigation, resulting in almost all the elite of the Executive Department, and only one and a half people survived.
……
Chu Zihang looked through the diary, and the more he flipped back, the more frightened he became, because in the past two hundred years, almost all the events related to the dragon clan have been written in this diary, for Chu Zihang today, he is no longer the ignorant ordinary boy, after experiencing this incident, coupled with Xia Mi's various descriptions of dragons, he has thoroughly understood this dragon world.
Chu Zihang knew that there was a much larger dragon world behind the scenes of the normal world, and everything related to dragons was an unimaginable event, but in Chu Tianjiao's diary, these events were summarized.
In Chu Zihang's rapid page turning, the lines on the diary flow rapidly, and they seem to become alive, and the lines that flicker because of the page turning vaguely form an intricate web.
Also in the rapid flipping, in Chu Zihang's eyes, this net has constructed an extremely ancient name, which is outlined with an ink pen, it is called Nidhogg.
When Chu Zihang saw this hidden name, it was like suddenly peeking into some terrifying existence in the darkness, he only felt depressed in his chest and had difficulty breathing, as if his heart was grabbed by a cold dragon claw.
In fact, Chu Zihang has always been very confused about everything that happened to Chu Tianjiao, he wanted to find all the clues about this man, especially about Odin, why did the other party target Chu Tianjiao? What role does Chu Tianjiao play in it? Where did all this conspiracy come from? And how do you unravel these conspiracies?
This is the answer that Chu Zihang wants to find at the moment, but now that he is looking through this diary, he finds that almost all the events in it have finally flocked to a name.
“Nidhogg……”
