After having a midnight snack, it was already very late, and Lu Xin went home alone.

Kid wanted to follow him back, but was taken away as if kidnapped by several members of Nanny Squad.

Looking at Kid's pitiful eyes when he was taken into the car, Lu Xin suddenly felt as if he had experienced some kind of old movie clip?

Damn rich people...

After sending Kid away, he drove the jeep through the sleeping city.

I don't know whether it was because he looked at himself in front of Teacher Lu, or because of this dinner, he was in a good mood.

Driving downstairs of the old building, Lu Xin parked the car on the side of the road and left the car keys in the car.

This car belongs to the Special Purity Department and needs to be returned to them.

After all, he owns three jeeps, so why should he covet them?

Anyway, it's Special Purity Department's car, so they will naturally send someone to pick it up, but if a thief gets his idea for this car...

...Lu Xin will sympathize with him.

Without rushing upstairs, Lu Xin first walked around the old building and looked at it carefully.

I told Chen Jing and the others before that I moved an old building to Kindling City, which shocked them.

But in fact, as a party involved, Lu Xin himself was very surprised when he thought about it carefully.

This is a real old building.

From the cement to the bricks, to the foundation and the steel frame, they are all real things.

How did you manage to go from one city to another?

In addition, if I can really move it to Central City, is the solution feasible?

After walking around the building, Lu Xin was amazed.

It's really strange. Although this building has been demolished once, the foundation is perfectly sealed and there is no difference at all.

Normally, even if it is just an ordinary stone that stays in a certain place for a long time, it will leave some traces after being moved and put back. However, this old building has no traces at all. There are no traces of being moved.

"It's so awesome..."

Lu Xin looked down at his right hand, shook his head slightly, and sighed.

There was a slight pain in the palm of his right hand where the nail was pierced, as if something was nailed, and Gu Ying felt a little.

Turning around and going upstairs, I found that the feeling of entering the corridor was different.

I don't know if it was because I had seen the weird things inside the old building before, and the scene where Mental Monster fought against Staff Hider's Mental Monster army, I had preconceived notions. When Lu Xin entered the old building before, he would only feel that the old building was completely dead and silent.

But this time, he felt that the building was in chaos.

There are many things hiding in shadowy corners without light, hiding behind doors.

When I walked up the steps, there were countless commotions, people running away in panic, or staring at me in fear.

He could even feel the rustling sounds and the scattered weak air currents.

"Ahem..."

Lu Xin When he walked up to the fourth floor, he felt that the building was too chaotic and couldn't help but cough lightly.

The turbulent corridor suddenly became extremely quiet.

Lu Xin took a breath, quickened his pace, arrived at Room 401, gently opened the door and walked in.

Warm light suddenly hit my face.

The coldness in the building was dispelled, and Lu Xin's eyes dazzled slightly when he saw that his family was all there.

My sister was holding a torn and sewn toy bear, sitting comfortably on the sofa and watching TV. She held a yellow Squeaky Chicken between her two little feet. While watching the joy on the TV, she squeezed it from time to time out of boredom.

This results in the sound of the cartoon being mixed with screams from time to time, and the atmosphere is very distinctive.

My father was cooking in the kitchen, and the pressure cooker was steaming.

Mom did not call, but set the table lightly with a new tablecloth. Rice and vegetables were already on the table.

"Huh?"

Lu Xin looked at the warm atmosphere and couldn't help but be slightly startled. "Is this a celebration?"

"Yes."

Mom turned to look at him, smiled and said, "Hurry up and wash your hands, I'm waiting for you."

Lu Xin suddenly felt embarrassed. "But I've already eaten it..."

"Huh?"

Mom at the dining table raised her head, the sister on the sofa turned her head, and the father in the kitchen also poked his head out.

The family looked at him with some resentment.

Lu Xin was slightly fussy and said hurriedly, "I think I can eat a little more..."

The family turned back to their work, and the atmosphere became warm and beautiful again.

Lu Xin washed his hands, looked at the vegetables and rice on the table, felt the beautiful life, and thought of the strange rustling in the corridor just now, so he took a bowl with rice, put some vegetables on the bowl, turned around and walked out.

In the corridor, there are countless invisible things crowded and crowded.

They seemed to be scrambling for it, so they leaned into the crack of the door and looked in.

"Squeak"

The door suddenly opened, and bright light spilled into the dark corridor.

All the commotion and crowded things were suddenly frightened, scattered violently, and disappeared.

Lu Xin looked at the empty corridor, put the rice by the door, turned around and entered.

The moment the door was closed, the corridor suddenly became commotion again, and it was even more crowded and chaotic than before.

"Squeak..."

The door suddenly opened again, and Lu Xin stood at the door.

The things in the corridor were stunned, and pairs of eyes that normal people could not see stared blankly at the figure standing at the door.

Lu Xin stood for a while, stuck a pair of chopsticks on the rice, turned around and walked in the door again.

The corridor was quiet for a while. After making sure that the person would not come out again, the atmosphere immediately became as lively as the New Year.

With a satisfied smile, Lu Xin sat at the dining table.

If this is a celebration, the things in this building also made contributions in the fight against Staff Hider.

So, of course, give them a little bit, even if it's just a bowl of rice.

Mom, his sister, and his father were all sitting at the dining table. Although they had already eaten before, Lu Xin still picked up the rice bowl. What he ate was not important. What was important was sitting with his family. After Kindling City ruined Staff Hider's plan, he had been thinking about it, but because of various trivial matters, communication, discussion and analysis of the entire incident were delayed...

"There's nothing to discuss."

But after listening to Lu Xin's words, Mom said with a smile, "Although this plan is a bit complicated, it is not worth taking too seriously. There may be many more things like this in the future. They may never be honest, but the advantage will always be with us."

"Okay..."

Looking at Mom's confident smile, Lu Xin lowered his head and took a few bites of rice.

This time, I really made a lot of money.

In the battle of Kindling City, Domination Chains of Staff Hider seems to have been taken away by Dr. An of Eclipse Research Institute. According to the words of Mom, According to the information, Dr. An should distribute these things to No. 7 and the woman wearing the crown of thorns. As a reward, he did not get a share, but at the end, he was lucky enough to get some flesh and blood donated by Staff Hider, so...

Not bad.

Staff Hider's flesh and blood, and Pale Hand's palm, what greater advantage could there be?

So after taking a few bites of rice silently, Lu Xin asked softly, "Am I very powerful now?"

"Huh?"

After hearing this, the sister and father on the side looked up at him curiously.

Mom smiled elegantly and gently, looked at Lu Xin gently, and said, "What do you think?"

"More powerful than before..."

Lu Xin nodded softly and said, "So, am I confident now that I can resist Old Director's fifth trial?"

The lights in the room trembled slightly as if the current was unstable.

Although the process was quick and the changes were light, it seemed to cause subtle changes in the atmosphere in the room.

Lu Xin asked very seriously.

He still remembered that Mom had put so much effort and even showed her immature side in front of others, just to help him win Pale Hand, and the purpose of winning Pale Hand was not just to fight against Staff Hider. Her first sentence revealed her true purpose, which was to increase her trump card so that she could fight against the trial Old Director gave her.

Lu Xin is unwilling to express his inner fear.

The arrival of No. 8 made him feel real tension, an uncontrollable change in the situation.

So, what if it's Old Director?

Therefore, feeling slightly anxious, he actually hoped to get a positive answer from Mom.

But after Mom listened to Lu Xin's words, he was silent for a while. The glass was brought to his mouth, but he did not drink any water.

After a while, she calmly shook her head at Lu Xin: "I don't know either."

Then a gentle smile appeared on her face, "But we have done our best, so there is nothing to be afraid of, right?"

The atmosphere in the room became gentle and comforting.

It seemed that both the younger sister and the father, whose eyes were glistening, were nodding faintly.

"Best effort?"

Lu Xin was thinking silently.

Mom naturally made his best efforts for this family, which is very touching.

My sister also works hard, even though she is still young.

From my father's point of view... maybe, maybe, maybe, it's considered hard work, right?

But what about yourself?

While slowly picking up the rice, Lu Xin was thinking, then he put down the rice bowl in his hand and said softly:

"I met Number Eight."

Mom looked at him quietly and nodded slightly, as if he had known about this for a long time.

Lu Xin continued, "He has grown up now and has become the executor of Midnight Court. He said he would stop by to see us, so I treated him to a meal, and he also invited me to watch him execute judgments on others. The process... was bloody and complicated. I had many things to say to him, but I didn't feel confident enough to say them out. The only thing I am sure of is that I treat him..."

After a pause, he gave a precise description. "I'm very envious."

"Whether it's right or wrong, No. 8 is really a person who knows what he wants to do and what he should do..."

"Compared to him, I have just lived in a haze for so many years, and I don't even know what I have experienced..."

"I haven't worked as hard as him, and I feel that compared to him, I am too confused..."

"Maybe it's because I'm not serious enough, so I can't give a clear answer to his question..."

"..."

Lu Xin said, with a slightly depressed mood on his face.

"Brother..."

Looking at his appearance, my sister suddenly called out softly and reached out to grab Lu Xin's palm.

Her little face was full of worry and distress.

While holding Lu Xin's palm, he carefully glanced at the top of his head.

She didn't know what she saw, but after just a glance, she quickly retracted her voice and lowered her voice subconsciously:

"But brother, after so many years..."

"You have been carrying such a heavy thing in your life..."
