Li Xiang leaned against the wall and looked at the scenery outside. He could see the cafe through the gap in the curtains. There were very few pedestrians passing by in the rainstorm, and even fewer at night.
Dong Ling and Lan's family of three were sleeping on the bed. It was estimated that it was about three o 'clock in the morning, and the rainstorm showed signs of stopping.
Li Xiang stayed up all night. This level of staying up late was nothing to him, but it was best to get enough sleep when carrying out a mission. Just as he was about to take a nap, a few black figures flashed by the cafe, seemingly searching for someone's trace.
He immediately became alert. After the Five Senses Magic Circuit reached the state of awareness, his eyesight was much better than ordinary people. Even if the tattooed man was slightly disguised, Li Xiang still recognized him.
Hula — —
Li Xiang did not hesitate. He rushed to the bed and immediately woke up Dong Ling and Lan. Dong Ling and Lan were not asleep at all. They woke up when they heard his movements. Lu Hai also patted his cheeks to wake up.
"Ugh … Big Brother Li Xiang." Lu Yu rubbed her eyes and called out to him in a childish voice. She did not cry when she was suddenly woken up. She was very well-behaved. She almost closed her eyes and crawled into Li Xiang's arms. Then she yawned and blinked her small eyes again.
"Little Yu, be good. Go back to sleep. Big Brother Li Xiang will call you later." He smiled softly, wrapped his windbreaker tightly, and walked in front. He held the source pistol in his right hand and gently pushed the door open with his left hand.
Yesterday, he took them around so many times, and the rainstorm could wash away the traces. The other party should not find them soon, but the nameless town was no longer safe.
He walked in front, went downstairs, turned a corner, and confirmed the safety. Only when he was sure that there was no danger would he let Dong Ling and Lan follow.
"As soon as we get out of the hotel, follow my footsteps. I have already contacted the truck to go to Black City. We will set off immediately." Li Xiang waved his hand. Dong Ling and Lan nodded. They took a deep breath and followed his footsteps.
There was no one at the front desk of the hotel. The person in charge probably couldn't resist the urge to sleep and had gone to bed. The lock on the door was nothing to Li Xiang. He only needed to fiddle with it a little and it opened.
The cold wind from outside poured in, mixed with fine raindrops.
He scanned his surroundings, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he suddenly shot out.
Li Xiang's figure almost sprinted to the side of the street in an instant. Dong Ling, Lan, and Lu Hai were stunned for a moment before they hurriedly followed.
Just this speed alone made them no longer doubt this young man's strength. He ran at the front and tried his best to slow down so that they could see his back.
The heavy truck leaving the Unnamed Town was contacted when they went out yesterday. There was still a morning shift before four o 'clock in the morning. Li Xiang took them around for a few laps. After confirming that they were not followed, they went to the giant lighthouse.
The dilapidated town gate was very retro. It was surrounded by a desolate wilderness. Only such a lighthouse stood there. The heavy truck spewing black mist was parked under the lighthouse. The old man with greasy face saw the four people running over. He reached out to take the blue astral coins and turned over to the driver's seat.
In the Unnamed Town and most towns, if you want to live long, you have to know less, work for money, and don't talk. Only then can you live.
The old man started the truck. Li Xiang and the other three sat in the pile of goods at the back. The wind and rain sprinkled over their heads, and the first light of dawn hadn't shone down yet.
The roaring truck was like a berserk behemoth rushing through the wilderness, crushing everything along the way, passing through various uninhabited areas.
Dong Ling and Lan's faces were slightly pale. They were sleep-deprived, exhausted, and hadn't eaten anything yet. Only Li Xiang, who had trained crazily in the Polar night, didn't feel anything wrong.
"Here." Li Xiang took out two oilcloth bags from his pocket. Inside the bags were some dry rations. Dong Linglan gratefully accepted the bags and started eating quietly with Lu Hai.
He fed the rest to Lu Yu, who hadn't fully opened her eyes yet. The little girl opened her mouth and waited for the food to be fed. Then, she closed her mouth and chewed. After a while, she let out a whimper and waited for the next wave of food.
Seeing Li Xiang's skillful way of taking care of their daughter, Dong Ling and Lan were a little curious about this big boy's past. The difficulty of the task they issued wasn't low. He looked murderous and sophisticated, like a killer who had been in the underground circle for a long time. But the way he took care of his daughter was different from the kind of people who had blood on their hands.
Lu Yu suddenly stopped chewing and stared at Li Xiang. Li Xiang still had half a biscuit in his hand. He looked at Lu Yu with a puzzled expression.
"Big Brother Li Xiang wants to eat too ~" Lu Yu hugged his neck and shouted in a childish voice. Li Xiang smiled, patted her head and shook his head.
"Gege is not hungry, you eat."
He continued to feed Lu Yu. The little girl yawned again after eating. Dong Ling and Lan looked apologetic. They wanted to take their daughter back to reduce his burden, but he refused.
Li Xiang didn't say much. He just stared at the scenery behind them, and the dawn slowly appeared on the horizon. He estimated the time and distance. The speed of the truck was relatively average, so it was good to estimate the distance.
If the trajectory of the truck changed, or if it didn't go to Black City, he would be aware of it immediately.
"Miss Dong Ling, may I ask why Blackhawk is targeting your family?" Yesterday, when he went to scout and inquire about the situation, Li Xiang learned about Blackhawk. It turned out that Blackhawk was different from the general killer group.
They only accepted high-end assassination tasks and had a little reputation in the nearby cities. The members of the group were all seasoned killers. According to the description, they had been through hundreds of battles. Yesterday, Dong Ling Lan deliberately mentioned it lightly, probably because they were worried that he would give up the task after knowing it.
Sure enough, Dong Ling Lan and Lu Hai's expressions changed slightly. They hesitated.
"It's okay if you have something to hide, but I hope you can understand that some insufficient information is likely to lead to a major deviation in my judgment. At that time, not only you and I will die, but also Little Yu." Li Xiang's tone was a bit cold. Of course, he wouldn't tell them that he couldn't give up the task. A little warning was good. Otherwise, if there was any important information hidden from him, if there was a change in the battle, they would die in vain.
Of course, until the last moment, he didn't want to exchange their lives for his own.
Dong Ling Lan took a deep breath and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Li Xiang, it's our fault. It's just that we really can't say for the time being. As for Blackhawk, I only know that they are also hired by someone. The person standing behind them is the one who really wants to kill us. But I can be sure that that person won't do it, and no one else will come to kill us. "
Li Xiang nodded, which was a tacit agreement.
It seemed that there were many complicated family grudges behind this mission. The fact that a member of the Winter Ling family was being hunted down was very illogical.
Blackhawk was just a local snake organization, and it was nothing in the 0127 city. Even if Dong Ling Lan didn't have any status in Dong Ling Family, her surname indicated that she wasn't someone that ordinary people could touch.
If the opponent wasn't just Blackhawk, then he would have to reconsider his plan.
Since Dong Ling Lan gave an accurate answer, he could only choose to believe it for the time being.
The truck kept bumping, but the route was fine.
When they approached Black City, the sky was completely bright. After a night of heavy rain, the air was fresh and the sky was clear.
The early inspection of Black City was very lax. When they saw the model of the heavy truck, they directly let it pass.
According to the agreement, the truck stopped in an alley with few people. After Li Xiang and the others jumped out of the truck, the truck roared away again.
Black Eagle definitely had people in Black City, but they could not predict the future and know that Li Xiang would definitely choose Black City.
The earliest intercity train was at nine o 'clock in the morning.
Only the most important super cities in each numbered city would have armored steam trains passing through countless numbered cities. They were parked in the oversized steam station, which was much more magnificent than the stations he had seen in his previous life.
In general, only the intercity trains to other towns in the numbered city stopped in the giant stations, and these stations were named after the city.
Black City's clock tower showed that it was 7: 45 in the morning. Black City Station opened at eight o 'clock. At that time, there would be countless people rushing in. With such a huge flow of people, even if Blackhawk arranged a lot of people in Black City Station, it would be difficult to find the traces of the four of them in the crowd.
What's more, they were in Black City. The military wouldn't allow this kind of bloody war to be staged in the main transportation fortress.
There were still fifteen minutes left. Li Xiang took them to wander around the crowded places, looking around, always vigilant, and slowly moving towards Black City Station.
The middle area of Black City was the place with the most flow of people. People could be seen everywhere, and there were all kinds of shops. He bought three cups of coffee, and there were all kinds of people around. There were countless small families of four like them, and they would never be suspected.
As they approached Black City Station, their field of vision suddenly darkened.
Mechanical buildings intertwined in mid-air covered the sky above. Various giant buildings stood around. The staff and patrolling soldiers were busy. This was the morning rush hour. Black City Station had more than a dozen intercity trains to various cities. The bustling scene was too much for the eyes to take in.
In their line of sight, a behemoth-class steam train was suspended in the air. The track was composed of fine metal pipes crisscrossed in the air. Only when it left Black City would it gradually land.
With the development of the population and the density of the cities, the land resources of the old cities were gradually scarce. Such intercity train tracks were transferred from the ground to the air. Some were even suspended in the air all the way, looking extremely magnificent.
The sleeping behemoth train exuded a gray metallic luster. They didn't know what material the surface was made of, but it looked very mechanical. There were various mechanical parts densely packed inside. Li Xiang took a glance and retracted his line of sight.
Even with the ability to see through things, he couldn't stand such observation. It was a disaster for people with trypophobia. Fortunately, he wasn't.
There were a lot of suspicious people near Black City Station, but so many people gathered here, it was impossible to notice the four of them.
With the dull sound of a bell, the crowd began to crazily rush into Black City Station.
Li Xiang also went with them with the crowd. They didn't know what method he used, but the weapon problem that Dong Ling and Lan were worried about wasn't discovered. The four of them smoothly entered Black City Station.
