This is what Gu Xing saw when he walked into this nightclub called M2.
He frowned slightly and began to look around the nightclub.
On the night of the first day of the lunar new year, he called Xia Lin to wish her a happy new year. Hearing that something was not right about the other party, Gu Xing thought about it, and on the evening of the second day of the lunar new year, he completed the handling of the assets of the Condor Club in Yang Qianyi and transferred them to his After signing up, I booked a ticket and came to Suzhou.
He had two purposes for coming to Jiangsu Province this time. One was to see what was going on with Charlene. If anything happened, he would help if he could and repay his previous kindness. The second purpose was that Gu Xing wanted to see the "ghost village" where he got the information about "The Evolution of Life".
Today, Gu Xing has learned a lot about the strange world. The so-called "ghost village" is probably a mysterious phenomenon similar to the coffin village.
Although this kind of mysterious phenomenon goes against the laws of nature and common sense, as the place where Gu Xing obtained the information about "The Evolution of Life", he had to come and see it no matter what.
On the evening of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Xing arrived in Jincheng, the capital of Jiangsu Province.
After that, he went directly to Charlene's home - he went there with his parents six months ago to thank Charlene.
It was an ordinary residential area located within Huanghuai District.
But when Gu Xing came to the door, he found that no one was at Xia Lin's house. He then went back and waited until the next day to visit again, only to find that no one was home.
Moreover, based on Gu Xing's altered senses, judging from the various traces in the corridor outside the door, Charlene has never come back at all, or it can be said that Charlene has not been at home for many days.
Following the clues left at the door and in the corridor of the last time Charlene went out, Gu Xing found this nightclub after a lot of trouble.
Gu Xing quickly searched all the seats in the nightclub. Soon, Gu Xing finally found Charlene drinking alone at a loose table.
"How many gentlemen are there?"
The waiter guarding the door came forward and asked Gu Xing.
Although Gu Xing is only over 17 years old, his height of over 1.8 meters, strong build, and indifferent temperament make him look like a minor.
"Find someone."
Gu Xing said simply, and then walked straight towards the center of the nightclub, where Charlene was located.
Soon, Gu Xing came to Xia Lin, who kept pouring herself wine and turned a deaf ear to everything around her.
Charlene was already drunk at this time and smelled of alcohol. She was lying on the table, holding a bottle of foreign wine with blurred eyes and slowly filling the glasses in front of her, then she suddenly raised her head and drank it all.
When she raised her head suddenly, her figure looked very unstable, as if she might fall back at any time, which made people subconsciously want to reach out to hold her, but she could always pause in time at the critical moment, and then slowly lie down and relax. On the table, he would pour wine with blurry eyes, and sometimes he would laugh with blank eyes.
After Gu Xing came to Xia Lin's side, he did not speak, but stood aside and frowned for a while.
In fact, he knew very little about Charlene. He could only judge that she was a kind-hearted person from the only previous contact with her, but he had no way of knowing what her daily life was like.
Looking at the shoulders and arms exposed by the other person's dress, as well as the tattoos on the arms, Gu Xing was about to label the other person as a type of person. Suddenly, Gu Xing's eyes narrowed and he looked carefully at the tattoos on Charlene's arms.
That's a colorful deer head tattoo - from the looks of it.
But after Gu Xing's transformation, he could almost see human pores. Gu Xing noticed that the colorful deer head tattoo was centered around a birthmark on his arm.
This birthmark is about the size of a baby's hand and is dark. It is an ugly birthmark if viewed alone. But when paired with this deer head tattoo, it happens to be on the nose of the deer head. This not only makes the birthmark not ugly, but also It also makes the whole tattoo more vivid, and the deer’s nose is lifelike.
"Is it to cover the birthmark?"
Gu Xing looked at the tattoo on Xia Lin's arm, thoughtfully.
"Who are you?"
When Gu Xing was staring at the tattoo on Charlene's arm, Charlene finally noticed Gu Xing standing next to her - or she felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Gu Xing like this. She touched the left arm where the tattoo was with her right hand. asked drunkenly.
When Gu Xing heard Xia Lin's words, he looked away and smiled slightly: "Sister Xia Lin, it's me, Gu Xing. Half a year ago, when you were driving back to Jincheng, you rushed out of the woods on the roadside and almost hit you."
He was afraid that Charlene would forget, so he simply mentioned what happened before. After all, more than half a year had passed and there was no contact between her and Charlene. It was possible that Charlene had forgotten about it, especially now that Charlene was still drunk.
After hearing Gu Xing's words, Charlene frowned slightly, her brows filled with doubts and she closed her eyes and thought for a while. Then she suddenly realized: "Oh, it's you, the child who has been missing for two years. Isn't your home in Qian Province? What, are you going to disappear again?”
Although Charlene did not speak slurringly as she spoke, her delicate and beautiful face had slightly red cheeks, her eyes were half-open and half-closed, and she looked drunk.
While talking to Gu Xing, her body was slightly leaning towards Gu Xing.
Gu Xing stretched out a hand and pressed it on the stage to block Xia Lin's leaning body. He was about to speak, but he stopped suddenly.
Because Xia Lin's leaning body was blocked by his hand on the stage, Xia Lin actually leaned her head on his hand and fell asleep!
The deafening DJ music was still playing around, and screams from people in the dance floor were heard from time to time.
But in such an environment, Xia Lin actually fell asleep with her head on his hand. I don't know if she drank too much or was careless.
Gu Xing frowned slightly and looked at Xia Lin who was sleeping with her head on his hand. After a little thought, he simply pushed forward gently, then quickly supported Xia Lin's head, slowly supported Xia Lin's body and fell backwards, and the other hand held Xia Lin's knees, picked her up in a princess hug, and walked out of the nightclub.
"Let's wait until she sobers up before asking what happened."
Thinking this way, Gu Xing prepared to take Xia Lin to the hotel where he was staying.
But before he took a few steps, three young people, two men and one woman, suddenly left their seats in the surrounding scattered tables and booths, walked quickly to Gu Xing, and blocked his way.
"Wait!"
One of the young men stopped him, and the other man and woman stood on his left and right.
But the three seemed to be very cautious, looking at Gu Xing as if he was facing a great enemy. The young man who spoke before said solemnly: "You can't take her away!"
Gu Xing had noticed it after the three left their seats. After the three stopped him, he wanted to tell the three to get out, but seeing the three people's cautious look as if they were facing a great enemy, he frowned and narrowed his eyes and said: "Do you know me?"
Although he was about 1.8 meters tall and strong, people who often come to places like nightclubs always talk about face, especially when they are drunk, there are many people who dare to go up even if the other party has more people. But the three people on the opposite side seemed to be very afraid of him, and Gu Xing could smell that the three people were not drunk much.
And he had just come to Su Province and had no background here, so ordinary people had no reason to be afraid of him.
Unless... these people knew his ability!
As soon as this speculation came out, Gu Xing's eyes narrowed slightly, and a dangerous light began to flash inside.
These people knew his ability, which also meant that they knew strangeness.
And they stopped him from taking Xia Lin away. Obviously, the reason why Xia Lin was like this now was probably related to strangeness.
Related to strangeness...
At present, the only two strange forces that Gu Xing had contacted were the "Weijie" officially recognized by the country represented by Yang Qianyi, and the "Holy Spirit" contacted in Hong Kong.
Gu Xing once asked, "Holy Spirit" is a strange force belonging to the United Kingdom, and this is Su Province, one of the economically developed provinces in my country. The probability that these people in front of him are from the "Holy Spirit" is very low, and the probability is that they should be from the "Weijie".
These are the information analyzed by Gu Xing after seeing the reactions of the three people.
These thoughts were generated in Gu Xing's mind in just a moment, and the brain cells that broke through the 10% critical point started to run faster.
When the three people in front of him didn't know how to answer Gu Xing's words, Gu Xing spoke again, and said in a firm tone: "You are from the Weijie."
The three people on the opposite side were stunned. Suddenly, the girl among the three seemed to feel something, raised her hand to lift the long hair beside her ear, and held her left ear.
Gu Xing saw that the girl was wearing an earphone on her left ear, which was previously covered by her vertical long hair.
The girl hummed for a while, then looked at Gu Xing and said: "Gu Xing, General Yang has something to tell you!"
"General Yang?"
Gu Xing raised his eyebrows and analyzed some information from the other party's words again, "Are you soldiers?"
Generally, only soldiers would call this kind of military rank, and he was not surprised that Yang Qianyi was a general.
Since it is an officially recognized strange organization, even if it is to win over, some benefits must be given, and it is also within Gu Xing's expectation that the person in charge will be given a general-level rank.
The girl who was talking did not answer Gu Xing's words, but took out her mobile phone and dialed a number, then pressed the hands-free button and handed it to Gu Xing - because Gu Xing was holding Xia Lin in his arms, he could only answer the phone in this way.
Soon, the call was connected.
Yang Qianyi's voice came from the phone: "Hello..."
"Why are you everywhere?"
Gu Xing interrupted Yang Qianyi and frowned.
Yang Qianyi: "..."
This is actually what she wanted to say.
...
While Gu Xing and Yang Qianyi were talking on the phone, two young men in black long down jackets came to the door of M2 and shouted enthusiastically: "Long live Lord Philos!"
While shouting, the two rushed into the nightclub.
The next moment -
"Boom!!!"
A loud explosion shook the world.
The flames gushed out from the doors and windows of M2 from the inside out, and the huge shock wave destroyed the glass of the doors and windows, bringing out brilliant flames to illuminate the night sky.
