Chapter 61: Lin Xiaoman
Li Qingyan stood on the side of the road for a while.
Ten minutes along this road is Shizhong District Pedestrian Street, one of the most prosperous commercial streets in Beishan City. After the pedestrian street, there are mostly high-end clubs on the side of the street, and there are not many pedestrians, which can be described as quiet in the middle of noisy.
Tiger Regency is also one of the more famous high-end clubs, membership system. I have been here with Pei Yuanxiu once or twice before, and the only impression is that the price is amazingly expensive, and Pei Yuanxiu is also frightened. However, those two times were official business, and there was no need to pay for it yourself.
As for Lin Xiaoman......
If Dunfrey is really uncomfortable because of Lin Xiaoman's feelings for him, it will be all flying vinegar.
Personally, Lin Xiaoman is a good woman. But his background is not good - like Pei Yuanxiu, he was born in a family of cultivators. This status should have been considered aristocratic in the old dynasties. And it belongs to the kind of noble bloodline that has been passed down for thousands of years.
Li Qingyan doesn't like to have too deep entanglements with this identity, which means a lot of rules and constraints.
He sighed and walked towards the palatial front door. But just as he was about to enter the door, he was stopped - the security guard in a black suit politely poked out a hand, and his face was very kind: "Sir, do you have an appointment? β
That's when the door was pushed open.
A tall woman in a azure flannel skirt suit walked out, first tilted her head and smiled playfully at Li Qingyan, and then stepped forward to hold his armβwearing high heels, even slightly taller than him.
"This is my honored guest. β
The security guard nodded and smiled at the two: "I'm sorry, Miss Lin. Sorry, sir. Two of you, please come in. β
After entering the lobby, Lin Xiaoman let go of his hand, and Li Qingyan laughed: "The security guards in the club blocked the way, and the beauties came out to solve the siege - I saw this kind of bridge when I was studying." I really knew today that it was a good feeling. β
Lin Xiaoman blinked and turned his face to look at him: "I heard that something happened to you, and I will fly back immediately-what do you feel about this?"
The two walked through the lobby to the atrium. It is landscaped with winding paths that lead to more intimate private rooms in the backyard. Li Qingyan thought for a while and said, "I guess you want to go back to your hometown because you have official business in the near future, but because I have advanced the date." It's also a big face - you cut your hair. β
In the past, Lin Xiaoman had waist-length hair, but now it has become neck-length medium hair. However, Li Qingyan felt that this hairstyle was more suitable for her - Lin Xiaoman did not have the kind of classical beauty that the public of the Republic appreciated, and his appearance was slightly colder. Today's medium-long hair makes her look even more heroic...... It's the kind of feeling that whites love.
"There are a lot of men in Europe, and too long hair has a bad effect. She turned her back and looked at Li Qingyan sideways, "I guess you just got out of danger - that's why you wore this to see me." β
The two walked through the atrium and walked to the box to take their seats. Lin Xiaoman missed his leg. The slender calves are delicate and smooth, as warm as white jade. She has always been good at showing off her beauty.
Li Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's true that I've just escaped." Got knocked out by a guy. β
Lin Xiaoman smiled slightly: "So, I am making amends to you for that guy." Dunfrey told me about you - he thought you were being promoted to rebel and kill star fruit, so he wanted to deal with you. But I didn't expect the lucky cat of the World Tree to also make a move that night...... He did him a favor. β
Li Qingyan was slightly stunned.
Lin Xiaoman looked at him with his hand on his face: "You already know that he is my fiancΓ©." If it's too late to regret it now -- we can get out of here and get married. β
Li Qingyan ignored her words: "Do you believe what he said?"
"Not all of it. Lin Xiaoman still looked at him, "He doesn't have the ability to stun you." I don't think Lucky Cat has the ability to do that. So I guess...... It has to do with his ability. β
Li Qingyan was sure that this meeting should not be a casual conversation between two old friends after two years of separation.
Lin Xiaoman knew Dumfrey's "ability".
"What kind of expression is this? Of course I know his abilities. Lin Xiaoman laughed, stopped looking at him, and made tea for him, "What I say now is confidential, and even Pei Yuanxiu can't know it." As for you, I don't care. β
"I'm doing one thing in Europe β investigating the Helsinki explosion, and it's time for Dumfrey to talk to you. But there's something you need to know. β
"The big bang happened in 1928. We investigated for two years and found some surviving witnesses. They all claimed to have seen two apparitions in the sky at the time of the explosion - 'like a war between gods'. Then, we spotted some Inhumans near Helsinki. β
Li Qingyan raised his hand to interrupt her: "Xiao Man, do you need me to help you do something?"
"Just to tell you, I know you like new things the most. As for whether to do it or not, it's up to you. β
Li Qingyan thought for a while and sighed: "You are a high-ranking official of the Sect and Dao Bureau, and I am an agent of the Special Intelligence Bureau, don't ask me to do anything that violates discipline and law." β
Lin Xiaoman offered him a cup of tea and laughed: "Dumfrey doesn't have the humor of you." β
Then she took another sip and continued, "Dumfrey is one of those Inhumans. His ability, which we call supernatural ability, is different from the supernatural power cultivated by the demon clan and humans. The source of this ability is still in the process of being investigated, but according to Dunfrey, it was not cultivated, but obtained by accident. β
"A total of thirteen Inhumans have been found now, all near Helsinki. From there, we speculate that the emergence of this ability has something to do with the Big Bang. Some people think that this ability may be another kind of 'supernatural power'. If you really figure out this matter, you may be able to figure out the origin of the demon clan. You know, we and America are both very invested in that. β
"Now one more thing is certain - there are more Inhumans. But they have an organization, connected to each other, hidden. Dumfrey is also helping me look into the matter. His family was influential in Scandinavia and was a good helper. β
"But now it's leaked. America's Fertility Goddess Project and Origin Project also highly overlap with our investigation. As for the girl named star fruitβ" Lin Xiaoman blinked, "it was part of America's Origin Project. They wanted to kill her, but they couldn't stretch their hands too long, so they did things through the promotion association. β
Li Qingyan thought for a while: "But in my opinion, their determination to kill star fruit is not very strong. I'm confused about that. β
"We were just as confused. So...... I'd like someone to sneak inside the promotion and figure this out. Find out what the people in the promotion association know about the Origin Project and the Fertility Goddess Project, and what they plan to do. And it just so happens that you've been in the promotion for a year. β
"That's what I just said β it's up to you to do it or not. I'm coming back this time to see you, just for this matter. β
