Lu Xin and Kid took Kid's exclusive van and arrived in front of a building in the south of the city, far away from Donghai Hotel.
Looking at the layout of the lobby, it seems that this was originally a high-end hotel, but both the front desk and the surrounding area were empty, and there was not a single person in sight. They arrived at the top floor of the twenty-seventh floor and entered the room on the east side of the corridor.
This room was originally a suite, which was more upscale than the one Vice President Xiao stayed in Satellite City No. 2 before.
At least the living room area is larger than that.
Inside the room, it seemed that it had been temporarily modified, with tempered glass installed side by side against the wall. However, the installation was obviously very rough. Even the wall-mounted TV set in the hotel was directly blocked by these glasses.
It was obvious that this was another temporary safe house.
After taking a look at the surrounding environment, Lu Xin understood why they brought themselves and Kid here.
It stands to reason that the safe house at Donghai Hotel was temporarily arranged for Kid to participate in this senior talent training meeting. Although it has been destroyed by the cleaning work just now, Kid should still have a safe house where he usually lives.
But the service team temporarily arranged a new safe house here for themselves and Kid to rest. This is because, on the east side of this room, there is a floor-to-ceiling glass window. Looking from the window, you can just see the direction of Donghai Hotel.
Therefore, this should also be the reason why we can provide timely support if something goes wrong.
"Mr. Single Soldier, because the incident happened suddenly, we are unable to prepare all the things that Kid usually likes. In case she is a little emotionally unstable, I hope you can comfort her well... By the way, don't speak too loudly when comforting her."
In Lu Xin's memory, this seems to be the first time a service team member has spoken to him.
The voice sounded like that of a middle-aged woman, but judging from her size, she seemed stronger than herself.
"Okay, I understand, go ahead and do your work."
Lu Xin felt that they were also working hard and smiled politely.
The service staff was stunned for a moment and said, "We are busy right now."
"..."
Lu Xin couldn't answer anything for a while, "... Okay!"
"By the way, we just went to several places to find this for Kid..."
Another service staff came over, holding several large colorful boxes in his arms.
Lu Xin looked over, his eyes straightened.
Those are actually the Lego toys that Kid was playing with before. Each box is very big. I don't know how the city has become such a mess under the first level alert. How did they do it? They found so many in a short time...
"Thank you for your hard work."
Lu Xin took the pile of heavy boxes and solemnly thanked them.
"It's okay, it's okay, this is our job..."
Several service staff spoke quickly and asked crucially, "Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Do you want to prepare a midnight snack?"
Lu Xin said gratefully, "Yes."
After several service team members left the room, Lu Xin breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.
Kid has just arrived in a new environment, and there are no familiar layouts and colors, so she seems a little uneasy.
But after seeing Lu Xin next to her, she suddenly felt very relieved. She took off her heavy princess dress, wore her autumn clothes and long trousers, sat on the ground covered with thick carpets, and picked up a box containing Lego toys with both hands.
After looking at it for a while, I bit it directly.
"Oops..."
Lu Xin looked at her biting the packaging box with her fine white teeth, and hurriedly took it over and helped her tear it open.
A pile of small plastic cubes of different colors fell next to her, piled up like a hill, and she suddenly seemed very happy.
He squatted on the ground obediently and began to fiddle with it tirelessly.
"Very easy to serve."
Lu Xin looked at Kid for a while and nodded slightly.
As long as she is playing honestly and performing another task, it is considered to be in progress.
After ensuring this, he sat quietly on the sofa and thought about his own things.
In the process of dealing with this S-class ability user from Sea Nation, he actually experienced a lot of things, and his emotions also fluctuated greatly. However, because he had just acquired the key items for the second stage, he kept his emotions calm.
This has the advantage that you won't be too emotionally affected, and you won't have all kinds of panic and anxiety.
He thought for a while and slowly took off his glasses.
Looking down at this thing that seemed to combine the characteristics of high technology and active items, he was very satisfied.
You can indeed feel a special power inside.
"This time you performed very well and worked very hard, so I am willing to treat you as a friend..."
Lu Xin looked at the glasses, and after a while, he spoke softly.
The glasses are silent, as if they are just a pair of glasses and will not answer other people's words.
"Your characteristics are very helpful to me, and they helped me just now."
Lu Xin Regardless of whether it answered or not, it still continued, "But, actually, I can also feel that you are not honest. You have an ambition that is not what a pair of glasses should have. You even wanted to take the lead when you were performing the cleaning task just now..."
"..."
Speaking slowly, a smile appeared on Lu Xin's face.
Then his hand holding the glasses began to move to both sides.
The material of these glasses looks like a kind of weird hard wood that will break if broken.
But now, with Lu Xin exerting force, he slowly broke the frame of the glasses into a bow shape, and finally even folded it directly into a diagonal shape. However, the glasses still did not break or crack, as if they had changed from wood to an extremely elastic material.
Lu Xin slowly exerted force, but the smile on his face did not change at all.
It seems to be very friendly to this pair of glasses.
Until the pair of glasses seemed to be too tight and trembling slightly, as if showing fear...
"Of course, I can understand, after all, we have just contacted each other."
Lu Xin felt its trembling, his smile softened a little, and he said softly, "Let's gradually improve our understanding in the future."
"Is it good?"
"..."
The glasses returned to the shape of the Beginning, but I don't know if it was due to inertia or something else.
It was trembling slightly, like a nod.
Lu Xin showed a satisfied expression and put the glasses on his face again.
At this time, he saw Kid playing with small squares and looked at him curiously.
Lu Xin smiled at her and said, "I'm trying out the quality of these glasses."
Kid believed it, showed a smile, then turned his head and continued to play with the small squares.
"It seems like there are a lot of things that need to be done, but actually what I want to do..."
Lu Xin sorted out the things on his mind one by one. During this period, there was no conscious intention to distinguish between superior and inferior. It was just that after he thought about all these things, he naturally understood what he should do. It was very easy.
Among so many things, the first thing to do is of course to ask for leave.
Lu Xin's expression became more soothing and calm.
But just when he felt relaxed, his shadow suddenly moved.
This hotel room is equipped with a soft lamp, and there are many light sources, so it is difficult to cast clear shadows of people. Even if there is, it is very weak and miserable. But when Lu Xin was thinking about these questions quietly, those scattered shadows seemed to gradually merge together under the movement of the light source, forming a darker and deeper shape.
The actual light source does not move, but the shadow seems to move on its own.
A sneering voice rang in the room, "Are you really not feeling tired?"
"Always being locked up in so many rules and regulations..."
"..."
Lu Xin Listening to this voice, he seemed not to be surprised, but replied softly, "I like this, how can I be tired?"
The voice suddenly became a little heavy. "These are shackles, preventing you from being free..."
Lu Xin was silent for a while and said softly, "But let me feel at ease..."
The shadow suddenly became darker and swayed significantly, affecting the light in the room.
"Do you really want to stay like this, like a fool?"
"..."
Even Kid on the side seemed to notice something, and turned his head to look at Lu Xin curiously.
Shadow sneered, "You can obviously get everything you want..."
"... Including her!"
"..."
"Your ideas are always so extreme..."
Lu Xin looked at his own shadow, unmoved, and said softly, "But I still want to tell you, you can't do things you shouldn't do."
"Rules are the rituals of being a human being..."
"..."
"Ding Lingling..."
Suddenly, the satellite phone rang, breaking the silence in the room.
Lu Xin was slightly dazed. He looked down and saw that his shadow had not changed.
He shook his head slightly and answered the phone. Chen Jing's voice came from inside. "How are you doing now?"
"Us?"
Lu Xin glanced at Kid and said with a smile, "She is playing Lego, and I am waiting for midnight snack."
Chen Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's good. The final investigation and clearing work in the city are now in progress, but basically all areas of Main City, as well as several Special Pollution Event that appeared in Satellite City, have been solved."
"Great."
Lu Xin nodded and said, "Actually, I was just about to tell you..."
"If things here are over, can I go back to Satellite City first?"
"..."
Chen Jing was slightly startled and said, "When?"
Lu Xin thought of the document collected by Mom, paused, and said, "It's best now."
"So anxious?"
Chen Jing is a little surprised.
"Yes, actually, I wanted to leave when I just solved that 'Red-robed Apostle'."
Lu Xin said, "But I see you are so busy, I don't have the nerve to ask you for leave."
"..."
Listening to Lu Xin's words, Chen Jing had a strange feeling in his heart.
She said slowly, "But if you go back now, your mission to accompany Kid will be interrupted."
Lu Xin nodded and said, "I asked for leave just because of this matter. It is not convenient for me to accompany her now..."
"Because I have some personal matters of my own to be busy with."
"..."
Listening to his calm voice, Chen Jing suddenly felt worried.
