July 31st, the basement of the Black Cat Bar.
This was Wang Xu's last day in City S, and he was about to board a plane to Chengdu at noon the next day. Hastily packed his luggage, lying on the bed alone, staring at the ceiling in a daze. There are many questions in his mind, but no one can give him answers, and he only hopes that this journey can solve these problems.
There was a knock on the door. Although the people outside the door had no spiritual consciousness, Wang Xu could still perceive that it was Chen Yuan.
"The door is unlocked." He didn't have the slightest intention of getting up to greet him.
Chen Yuan, who was dressed in a neat suit and covered his face with sunglasses, walked in: "Old Shang asked me to send a message."
Wang Xu didn't pick up his words, but asked, "Have you joined the Nine Divisions?"
"Oh? How do you know?"
"Of course it's because of the gun you hid on your body. It's hard to hide the presence of the weapon." Wang Xu replied, "Combined with your comrade-in-arms relationship with Lao Shang, and the fact that you came to send a message the day before I left, it's not difficult. Guess what."
"Hmph... You boy, it's getting more and more unpredictable now." Chen Yuan was not polite, and sat down in a clean place by himself, and lit a cigarette: "After Xiaoxue disappeared, my bodyguard became a Great idler, although Lao Shang still insists on giving me a salary, how can I have the nerve to take it..."
"So you dragged this old comrade out and gave him a hard drink. After he got drunk, he got excited and got you into the ninth department?"
"Hahahaha... It's a lot of drinking, and it's quite high. However, the affairs of the Nine Divisions are highly confidential. Do you think Lao Shang is the kind of person who will leak secrets when he is drunk?"
Wang Xu also laughed: "Anyway, I watched those specially trained agents in the movies. As long as they don't want to disclose information, even if they are given special drugs, it won't help, let alone something like alcohol?"
Chen Yuandao: "Since you also understand, isn't the matter obvious?"
"Hehe... After all, Lao Shang still thinks that you are a veteran who has served as his daughter's bodyguard for so many years, and it is a shame, right?"
"I didn't know until I joined the Nine Divisions that Xiaoxue has become a big shot and a great master. As a bodyguard, I have no choice but to retire honorably."
Wang Xu still looked at the ceiling, but her tone suddenly became very serious: "In the future, I will protect her."
Chen Yuan stubbed out the cigarette butt: "With your words, it means that Lao Shang has seen the right person."
Wang Xu sighed and said, "Hey, I don't know how your intelligence work is done, you can even find out the date of my departure. Forget it, I don't ask about state secrets, so my father-in-law asked me to What do you want to say?"
"He just said, 'Since we have gone, we must bring Xiaoxue back safely'."
Wang Xu sneered: "Okay, then Brother Chen, you can also send a message to Lao Shang for me, just say 'I will keep it here when I bring it back, and I won't send it back to you forever'."
Chen Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, I'm afraid that he will be impulsive after listening to it, and it won't be good if he lifts the table and draws his gun and rushes at me. If you want to say it, you can tell him yourself."
…
The next day, the airport.
Wang Xu, Albert, Qi Bing, and He Wenhong all packed their bags and were ready to go on the road. The only person who came to see them off was Master Cat. The most common thing this guy said since the morning was: "Damn it! My wife is waiting for me to go home!" To drive them away.
"Xiao Gu and Xiao Liu have already gone to Chengdu ahead of schedule. Pei Yuan, Chai Xing, Luo Ying, Lin Xiaoshuang, Guo Jingtian, and Yu Xin all took the flight the day before yesterday. When you get there, they probably have completed all the relevant preparations." .
Here, let me reiterate that you are not going on a trip this time, but to accompany Wang Xu on an adventure. Mortal awareness and stupid dedication are both necessary. This is a road that goes to the dark, there is no such thing as giving up halfway, only capsizing halfway... "
"It's worth it..." Wang Xu interrupted Master Cat directly: "What are you doing this? I managed to fool you into helping me. Do you want to be fooled again?"
"Hey... Let's still stand here, okay... Don't talk about fooling around in front of us!" He Wenhong said.
Master Cat sighed: "Then, let's not live here, I hope you can come back alive."
"Don't worry, I won't die if you die." Wang Xu waved at him and turned around. The other three also said goodbye to Master Cat one after another, and the four disappeared from Master Cat's sight one after another.
Master Cat still had that decadent face. He put his hands in his trouser pockets, turned around slowly, walked for a while, and suddenly stopped by a seat in the waiting hall: "Anyway, I'll take you by car. Let's go back."
The person in the seat didn't move or speak, but her shoulders seemed to be trembling slightly.
"You told him not to come and see him off, so after he found out about you, he pretended not to know."
Yan Li's tears finally flowed down, she lowered the brim of her peaked cap, covered her mouth, sobbing hard.
Master Cat sighed: "Hey... I still cried in the end." He sighed in a compassionate tone: "This is youth." Then, he walked to the seat with Yanli's back and sat down: "Look Come on, let me just sit here and wait for you..."
…
Although Wang Xu has already taken a plane many times, but today is the first time he is so quiet when taking off, only Qi Bing knows why. So he said blankly: "You shouldn't pretend you didn't see her."
Wang Xu looked out the window: "I'm just scared."
"Are you afraid that if you meet her, you will be shaken?"
"No, I won't be shaken, but there will still be other emotions coming up, and I can't say what."
Qi Bing was not very good at comforting others, and he didn't know how to respond to Wang Xu's words, so he could only be silent for a moment, then changed the subject and said, "I have a question, why didn't Master Cat come this time? Don't answer me If the two of you are not even friends, you and I both know that without him making arrangements this time, it would be very difficult for us to make the trip."
Wang Xu replied calmly: "Don't you understand... He and the eldest sister are headed, and the day of quitting the ghost hunting world is not far away."
"What? He told you?" Qi Bing was really surprised.
"There is no need to say it at all... You can understand this kind of thing at a glance. Sister Shui gave Ning Feng the title of 'Thousand Winds' a few months ago, and she also planned to withdraw from the Ten Palaces of Hades. After the famous family of ghost hunters, but now only she and that careless brother-in-law are left in their Shui family. No one stipulates that her children and grandchildren must stay in the ghost hunting world, right
Looking at Lord Cat again, it is even more obvious. Not long after he got the medical Gu article, he was infinitely close to the realm of super spirit body, but he has not crossed that threshold so far. In terms of his aptitude, it is reasonable. There is only one explanation, that is, he himself is unwilling to step over.
That guy was nothing more than waiting, waiting for Sister Shui to cross the realm beyond mortals with him and gain a lifespan of a hundred years, or even a thousand years. And if Sister Shui can't reach that level, he will choose to grow old with her and finish his life... that's all. "
Qi Bing was really moved when he heard this: "She waited with seven years of youth, will he repay it with a lifetime of companionship?"
"You can just write songs in the future, and they still rhyme..." Wang Xu made a mocking expression: "In short, even if these two are not living in isolation and wandering wild cranes, they will definitely not have that kind of fighting again. It's time to kill. So... For my own personal affairs, I still can't do such a thing by letting Lord Cat carry his head to take risks."
Qi Bing turned his head and stared at him: "Then we all carry our heads to accompany you in the danger, so you don't have any psychological burden, right?"
Wang Xuxu rolled his eyes and said, "You scumbags who have enjoyed premarital sex are now dying in front of me, I won't even blink."
Albert's face suddenly rose from behind Wang Xu's seat: "Excuse me, two, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I couldn't help but ask, how did you know I had premarital sex..."
Wang Xu looked up at him: "Master Cat identified it."
He Wenhong's head rose from the position behind Qi Bing: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I couldn't help but interrupt... How does Master Cat distinguish between a virgin and a non-virgin..."
Wang Xu snorted coldly: "If I knew about that kind of thing, I would have written a book and become a billionaire. I don't think I will have the chance to be with you guys in this life."
Qi Bing said again at this time: "What about Liu Hang? Master Cat hasn't identified him, has he? Would you be ashamed to ask him to die with you?"
"We love each other!" Wang Xu's eyes lit up.
He Wenhong said: "Can you say something so affectionate?"
"Cut... You and I are just nodding acquaintances, I can't talk to you yet." Wang Xu said disdainfully.
"A friend who nods to accompany you to the world of yin and yang to pick up girls! Believe it or not..." He Wenhong yelled violently.
Wang Xu interrupted directly: "If you shout again, the marshals will lock you into a small dark room. If you dare to sacrifice those two silver pistols, they might throw you from the sky."
Albert patted He Wenhong on the shoulder and motioned him to sit down. They were indeed a bit too noticeable. The latter had no choice but to temporarily stop arguing with the complaining man in front of him.
After they sat down, Wang Xu said to Qi Bing, "Actually, I must see Lingxue this time, and even went to scare Box to make a dangerous deal to confirm her location. There is another reason."
Qi Bing said: "Oh? What's the reason?"
Wang Xu said: "At Derek's house, I once had a conversation with the image left by Vincent, do you remember?" Qi Bing nodded, and Wang Xu continued: "Before he left, I asked him the last question. One question—where is Lingxue. I still don’t understand Vincent’s answer, but I always feel that something is wrong.”
"What did he say?"
Wang Xu turned her face out of the window again: "The original words are 'she is always avoiding you, looking for a place that you will never find, but you never give up, never give up, even though she hides her name, even By choosing to forget, you can still find her and lose her again'."
