It was getting dark outside. Jazz canceled the "highest confidentiality" status of the conference room. As there was still a meeting to be held, Jazz politely bid farewell to the two and arranged for Ai to prepare dinner for the two.
Although it was not said directly, it was probably the last farewell.
After walking out of the conference room, Roddy and Kardashian were still a little dizzy. They felt that they understood a lot of things, but also had more doubts. So much so that the exquisite steak and red wine could not attract the two. After hastily finishing dinner, the two looked at the exquisite door of the suite. Kardashian suddenly turned her head and said, "Let's go out for a walk?"
"Sure."
Roddy nodded, and Kardashian swaggered forward. "After taking such a long flight to the other side of the world, wouldn't it be a pity to leave without going out for a look?"
There was a hidden meaning in her words. Roddy did not respond, but just silently followed behind her. When they reached the door, the artificial intelligence assistant used its mechanical arm to hand over a card. "This is the credit card provided by Jazz for both of you. After using it, just sign your Chinese name. "
"Okay, thank Jazz for me."
Roddy reached out to take it and found that there was a portrait of a person wearing a Roman helmet on the black card. This seemed to be the legendary American Express Centurion Card?
However, it did not matter what card it was. Roddy was very clear that he and Kardashian were about to embark on their journey home. The door to leave the "space-time prison" was now unobstructed. Roddy knew that he and Kardashian only needed to meet one "condition" each. One was to figure out the ins and outs of the identity of "Roddy"; two, it should be in the heart of the Dragons in front of him.
And the other party obviously knew the answer. At this time, going out for a walk was probably just a farewell before leaving.
"Colthus" provided the two with a black Rolls-Royce for special treatment. It was drizzling in London at night. Roddy and Kardashian sat in the spacious back seat, looking out the window in silence for a while.
"Mr. Roddy, where do you want to go?"
The driver was Caucasian, but he spoke fluent Chinese.
"Go to the busiest street in London."
After receiving the order, the driver turned the steering wheel and went on another road. The 12-cylinder engine was silent in the car, and the huge car shuttled through the night like a ghost. However, when they reached the central street of London, they still had to face the slow traffic caused by the traffic jam. Kardashian stared at the passers-by in a daze for a long time before she suddenly said, "I never thought that I would experience such a bizarre thing."
After a pause, she turned around and said, "This should be the biggest secret in your heart, right? Until now, have you told anyone else? "
Roddy smiled bitterly. "Sister, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, would you believe me if I told you that there is a quantum computer in this world?"
This answer made Kardashian very satisfied. She nodded and said, "It seems that I am the only one who knows about your background."
She turned her gaze back to the window with an indecipherable smile on her face, which made Roddy a little confused. Seeing that the atmosphere had become silent again, Roddy tried to change the subject. "Sister, what do you want to see?"
Outside the window was the River Thames at night. The lights on both sides of the river illuminated the river, and there were cruise ships sailing in the middle. After driving across Westminster Bridge, the Big Ben, the symbol of London, was right in front of them. Kardashian looked up and answered ambiguously, "I don't know. I'll tell you when we get there."
The car continued north, first arriving at the East End, then crossing the street into London's West End. Along the way, they passed by the famous National Gallery, various opera houses, Trafalgar Square and St. James's Garden. As one of the most famous and prosperous commercial districts in the world, London's West End seemed to always be full of pedestrians, and tourists could be seen everywhere taking photos.
The Rolls-Royce finally stopped on Oxford Street, which was surrounded by shopping malls with fluorescent signboards. The driver opened the door and pulled out an umbrella from the door. Roddy got out of the car and took the umbrella. When he turned around, he saw Kardashian sitting by the door with her hand raised. He was stunned for a moment, then helped her out of the car.
The two of them were dressed casually, but Kardashian's posture reminded him of those elegant ladies … He did not know what this young lady was up to, suddenly doing this.
The driver wanted to ask when he would pick them up, but Kardashian waved her hand and said that there was no need. Then, she pulled Roddy and walked into the first-tier commercial district. Many of the buildings on the street in front of them were in the antique Gothic style, but the billboards of luxury goods gave the place a modern feel. Today, Kardashian was not interested in buying any clothes or bags. She just dragged Roddy through the streets, past various shops, and finally stopped in front of Vertu Boutique on the side of the road.
They stopped in front of Vertu Boutique.
"I want to buy a watch."
Roddy thought that she wanted to take photos with the tourists. After all, her eyes always seemed to stay on the tourists along the way. Although Vertu watches were expensive, it was not his money anyway. Roddy walked into the shop with Kardashian without any psychological pressure.
Of course, he was actually a little nervous. After all, he was being held by Kardashian by the wrist all the way. What did this mean?
Miss Dragons wore a hood. She did not bat an eyelid in the face of watches priced in five or six figures. She deliberately chose a pair of lovers' watches inlaid with sapphires. When he asked the shop assistant to take it out and try it on, Roddy's expression was a little complicated. Kardashian pretended not to see it. She picked it up and stood beside Roddy. She turned on the selfie mode and said, "Come, look at the camera!"
The smiling Dragons girl, and the stiff witcher, two people who had nothing to do with each other, took their first group photo.
Roddy did not pay attention to how much the two watches cost. He only knew that when he took out the black credit card, the shop manager immediately closed the shop and personally served him the whole time. But Roddy could not remember these details. Because he looked at the lovers' watches on his wrist, he always felt that something seemed to be out of control.
Kardashian did not care about his state. After walking out of the shop, she dragged Roddy along and took dozens of selfies in this antique neighborhood. Although the latter was the castellan of Elsen City and a powerful witcher, he basically had no skills in "selfie" posing. After all, as an otaku, he rarely took selfies. At this time, in order to cooperate with the photo, the only thing Roddy could do was to smile like he did when he was a child. But the result was that his face was stiff, and he did not realize that his fake smile was very annoying.
"Stupid! Your smile is not sincere at all! "
Kardashian looked at the photo and was very dissatisfied. Her pink fist hammered on Roddy's arm. It was soft as if she was massaging him. The latter scratched the back of his head and giggled silently. Both of them did not say it, but there were some other emotions in their hearts. Looking at the sapphire watch on her wrist, Miss Dragons rolled her eyes and pulled Roddy to a dessert shop not far away. She skillfully ordered two lemon ice creams from Solento in English. After taking it from the shop assistant, she turned around and said, "Open your mouth!"
Rody froze. Feeding and eating seemed too ambiguous no matter where it was. But Kardashian had already stuffed the ice cream into his mouth. He had to obediently open his mouth and reach out to catch it. Unexpectedly, Kardashian deliberately stuffed the ice cream into Roddy's mouth and said, "You! I told you to laugh but you're not funny. I'll make you cry even if you want to! "
Solento was one of the lemon producing areas in Italy. The ice cream had a mellow taste, but the sourness was beyond imagination. Not to mention that Roddy's mouth was freezing, the sourness rushing on his tongue almost made him cry. Roddy had to swallow a big mouthful of ice cream. He couldn't help but bend over and rub his face because of the sourness.
Next to him, Kardashian raised her watch excitedly and took a picture of this scene with a click.
"Hahahaha, you idiot! Let's see if you still dare to smile so ugly in front of me! "
"Sister, spare me. Don't torture me like this next time …"
"Next time? Try and see if you dare to be so perfunctory next time. "
Kardashian held the ice cream in her right hand and kept licking it with her little tongue. The sour taste made her squint her eyes. The watch on her left hand displayed the picture she had just taken. She was looking at the camera with a naughty smile. Behind her, Roddy's expression was distorted by the sourness and he was rubbing his face hard …
Naturally, she didn't know that the dream that Houdini had described on the paper was exactly the same as this picture.
Bright high-rise buildings were on both sides of the picture. Pedestrians passing by looked over curiously. The flagstone road was flashing with the reflection of neon lights after the rain. And in the picture, she seemed to have the happiest smile in the world.
Looking at the picture projected on the watch, Kardashian gradually stopped in her tracks. Behind her, Roddy finished the small ice cream in a few bites. He rubbed his face and smiled bitterly. "Although the first bite was too sour, it actually tasted pretty good. But … Sister, don't stuff me like this next time. My tears are coming out from the sourness. "
"A lot of things are like this. It's hard to accept when you eat it, but when you actually taste it, it actually tastes better than you imagined."
Kardashian looked at the giant Hermes advertisement on the left and replied casually.
"Oh? What else is like this? "
Roddy followed her gaze. The Hermes logo on the orange background was more than ten meters high. A model was walking in the desert with a classic Birkin bag. He didn't think it was anything special, but when he turned his gaze back, he found that Kardashian was looking at him …
At 178cm, she was only a little shorter than Roddy. Her delicate face was slightly raised. Roddy could even see his own reflection in her eyes. At such a close distance, he didn't realize what was going on at all. Then he heard a faint voice. "Come, I'll tell you."
As soon as his brain realized what was going on, Roddy felt that Kardashian's face had suddenly become very close. He felt a cold sensation on his lips. The faint lemon fragrance was the same as the ice cream he had eaten a few minutes ago. However, the tip of his tongue felt more delicate and smooth …
