The three chatted for a while before Lin Zhounian and his wife felt a little tired and took a break.
Taking advantage of this, Lin Xiao, who had been waiting for a long time, approached Lin Sheng and asked about the Holy Sanctum.
"Yixi, you have been in the Holy Sanctum for some time now. Do you know a man named Lange?" Lin Xiao suddenly interrupted after a while.
"Lange? Which two words? "Lin Sheng smiled.
Lin Xiao dipped her finger in the tea and wrote two words on the table.
Lin Sheng looked at it and thought carefully.
"There are very few people with this name. I don't remember. Why? Is this person famous? Or have you met him before? "
In this era, all kinds of Darksiders and clerics had come out of their hiding places and stood in the eyes of everyone.
The people were no longer as ignorant about the Transcendents as they used to be.
Information about Darksiders, clerics, and all kinds of related information were circulating everywhere, and it was easy to get a lot of common knowledge.
So the family knew a lot of general knowledge.
"Why are you looking for him?" Lin Sheng asked.
"That man, he said something strange when he met me," Lin Xiao whispered. She had a strange feeling towards that amiable-looking middle-aged man.
His words were normal, and there was nothing wrong with his attitude. But she just felt something was not right.
Yes, when talking to that man, she had a very familiar feeling.
But now her parents were here. She could not tell them what happened at that time. She did not want to worry her parents. After all, he was just a stranger.
"Let's talk about it later." Lin Sheng shifted his gaze to his parents.
"I came back this time to pick you up and move to Henricqal."
"Move to Henricqal?" Lin Zhounian and his wife were stunned.
"Yes. The conditions there are better, the environment is better, and it's much more spacious and comfortable than here." Lin Sheng briefly explained. "Besides, I have started some business there, and most of my business is concentrated there. That's why I came back to pick you up."
Henricqal was much more powerful than Xylond. Excluding the Night Lord and the others, the Sanctum's investment in Henricqal was far more than what they had invested here.
Coupled with the existence of a large number of workshops, life and other aspects were much more convenient.
"But … this is too sudden …" Gu Wanqiu said in a low voice.
"I'm not leaving. It wasn't easy for us to adapt to the environment from Celine to here. It would be too tiring to move again. I'm not leaving! "Lin Zhounian immediately refused.
"Besides, your sister hasn't graduated from university yet. If she leaves now, there's no way she can reconcile the two sides!"
"I'll take care of that. It's getting more and more dangerous out there. Henricqal is much safer than here, so I — "
But after that, no matter how he tried to persuade them, the two of them refused to budge and refused to leave.
Lin Xiao, who was watching from the side, found this scene funny.
She didn't really care whether she moved or not. Now that her brother was capable, it did not matter if he moved to Henricqal.
However …
She could not help but recall the man she met more than a month ago.
That man was speaking in a language that she could not understand. Before he left, he looked up at the sky as if he was prophesying something and said some exaggerated remarks that she could not understand.
In the end, Lin Sheng did not persuade his family to move.
He left for a while, but not to Henricqal. Instead, he stayed in Xylond to deal with some "business."
Lin Xiao did not know what her brother was busy with now.
When she left home in the afternoon and headed to school, she saw another figure that left a deep impression on her.
Beside an abandoned building on the way to school.
Lin Xiao often passed by here. The last time she passed by here was also when she met the strange man.
She did not expect to meet the same person in the same place again.
The man was wearing a gray trench coat. The corner of his mouth was slightly raised as if he was always smiling.
This was a man with a strong sense of presence.
His hair was combed back, his eyes were long and narrow, and his face was fair. He was dressed like a gentleman. His suit was well-ironed, and even the corners were neatly ironed.
But for some reason, it gave people a strange sense of unease.
Attracted by this strange charm, Lin Xiao slowed down unconsciously. She stopped again and looked at the man quietly.
Time passed slowly.
They stood there for more than ten minutes.
The man turned his head and looked at Lin Xiao.
"Ah … It's you, the girl who saw me twice in a row." His voice was very accented, but it was not the kind of pretentious imitation. It was more like a natural temperament.
"What are you doing here again?" Lin Xiao smiled, walked closer, and asked softly.
She was curious about this man.
He said that his name was Lange, an ordinary person who wandered around.
But his temperament could not make her treat him as an ordinary person.
"I pass by here occasionally. It's a pity to see this place that is about to be completely destroyed. So I stopped, "Lange replied gently. He lowered his head and looked at Lin Xiao.
"You look beautiful today, girl."
"Thank you." Lin Xiao smiled.
"Would you like a cup of coffee?" Lange suddenly asked.
“？？” Lin Xiao blinked. Before she could react, she saw Lange's hands conjuring two cups of hot coffee.
The rich aroma of coffee slowly spread.
He handed one of the cups to Lin Xiao.
"It seems that we are fated."
"Yes, I think so too." Lin Xiao smiled and took the coffee, but she did not drink it.
"Actually, I have calculated it the last time I went back." Lange stared at Lin Xiao's beautiful eyes. "Our meeting is fated."
"You are good at joking, although your eyes are very charming," Lin Xiao replied with a smile. She had just gotten out of a relationship and did not want to start a second one.
"It's okay. This wasn't the result I had expected from the start. Even though you are so charming that I almost can't take my eyes off you, "Lange said softly," it's not my original intention to express my feelings to you so hastily. "
"Uh …" Lin Xiao didn't know how to answer this question.
"I opened a cafe nearby. Let's have a chat. It seems that you need some good food to wash away something in your heart. "Lange reached out his hand to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment before putting her hand in his.
She did not know why, but she had an inexplicable urge to get close to the man in front of her.
She was a person who followed her instincts and feelings. If it wasn't for this, she wouldn't have fallen in love with that hoodlum at all costs and almost given herself to him in the end.
"Even if I don't get anything today, meeting you will still make me feel better," Lange said with a smile.
"You really know how to talk." Lin Xiao pursed her lips and smiled.
Both of them slowly disappeared at the end of the road.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, two purple lightning bolts descended from the sky and quickly condensed into two tall men in white combat suits on the roof of the unfinished building.
"The meeting between the Night Lord and the Night Matriarch … I didn't expect them to look like ordinary lovers." One of the men sighed.
"Who would have thought that the first Night Lord and the Night Matriarch would meet in this strange world? What should we do now? "the other man asked.
"We can't act rashly. Even if it's the Night Lord at this time, his strength is far beyond what we can compare with.
This world should be in a period of great catastrophe. The Night Lord usually likes to appear in the most painful places. So he will probably stay here for the time being.
We need to observe carefully. If we can find some flaws in the Night Lord in this period, we can come up with a better plan when we go back. "
"Why don't we try to kill them now? If the Night Lord and the Night Matriarch disappear, maybe our world … "
"Shut up! Do you want to change the established history? Do you want the whole world to be destroyed? "
The leader of the men said sternly. "Once we make a move, the power of the Astral Mere will be completely drained by the River of Time. We will be annihilated in the sands of time, not even a speck of us will be left! If you want to die, don't drag me down with you! "
"But I remember there is no such organization as the Holy Sanctum in the observation of the Astral Mere, right? Could it be that we're seeing things? "
"Maybe there is some other interference. There is something wrong with the observation. "
