The Dragon Gate, this world city was not only the turning point of Li Xiaolong's life, it was also the stage where he truly displayed his manliness, and it was precisely here that he got to know Deng Fan. The story about Li Xiaolong had actually only just begun, but it had already come to an end here, so there was no need to bring it up for now.
Even in his dreams, Deng Fan would never have thought that he would meet Li Xiaolong again in such an occasion. Aside from being happy, he was still worried about his. He could not help but ask Xiao Long, "Where have you been all these years? Why did you come here? "
Li Xiaolong looked around vigilantly with a suspicious look on his face. After a while, he patted Deng Fan's shoulders and said in a low voice, "Let's talk somewhere else."
Deng Fan nodded his head, and then Xiao Long left.
Just as he walked out of the door, he bumped into Tang Xin.
Xiao Long and Tang Xin looked at each other, a trace of surprise and doubt flashing across their faces.
Deng Fan immediately explained to Xiao Long: "I found this lady here, her name is Tang Xin." Then, he introduced him to Tang Xin: "Miss Tang, there's no need to be afraid. This is my old friend, her name is Li Xiaolong."
Tang Xin blinked her eyes in surprise and then greeted Xiao Long softly, "Hello, Big Brother Li."
Li Xiaolong also did not say anything, he only nodded his head and returned the greeting, his expression extremely serious.
Deng Fan continued to speak with Tang Xin: "We want to talk alone now, you stay here and don't run around, I'll be back soon."
When Tang Xin heard that Deng Fan was going to abandon him, he panicked and asked, "Where are you going?"
"It's nearby. It won't go too far." Deng Fan said, "If you are in danger, shout, I will rush here to save you."
Tang Xin could only nod slightly and say, "Alright …"
Following that, Deng Fan continued to follow Xiao Long to the end of the corridor and stopped there.
Li Xiaolong looked around, and after confirming the surroundings, he said to Deng Fan with a serious expression: "How did you come here? This is not a place you should be. "
After Deng Fan heard this, he immediately felt that these words were a double entendre. After thinking for a moment, he said: "I was involved in the search for the missing girl just now."
"Who is that girl to you?" the dragon asked.
"Strictly speaking, it doesn't matter. I was only sent to find her." Deng Fan said.
"Sure enough, you haven't changed at all. You like to meddle in other people's business." Xiao Long said.
"Yes, I am such a man. I can't change my mind." Deng Fan could only nod his head and admit it, then asked: "What about you? Tell me, how did you get yourself involved? "
After a while, he replied, "I can't talk to you too much. This place is filled with cameras and surveillance cameras, so no matter where you go, it's not convenient to talk."
After Deng Fan heard this, he looked around and said: "I don't see any places with cameras nearby, right?"
"It might not be real, but the technology here is way beyond your imagination." "Even if you are walking on the street, there are still countless Heaven Eyes watching you." He kept his voice low when he said this.
"There are cameras on the streets?" Deng Fan was shocked when he heard this.
"No matter what you do, you have to be very careful. Just think of the situation as bad. For example, right now, there might be a lot of hidden eyes watching us." The dragon said.
Deng Fan couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. After a while, he said: "You seem to know this place very well? "How long have you been here?"
"I can't answer that question, and I think you know very well that this is not a place to reminisce about the past." "I can't stay with you for long. I have to go now."
"Where are you going? Won't you come with us? " Deng Fan quickly asked, "How many things did you hide from me?"
Xiao Long only walked a few steps before stopping. With his back facing Deng Fan, he said, "If there's a chance, I will explain it to you."
"How much do you know about this place?" Deng Fan asked again.
"I can only give you a word of advice. Don't go to the tallest building." After saying that, Xiaolong left without looking back.
Deng Fan did not chase after him. He understood Xiao Long's personality very well. He knew that Xiao Long definitely had something that was difficult to explain and that he had his reasons for what he said and did.
Deng Fan stood in place and pondered for a long time. He originally wanted to ask Xiao Long one more question, but in the end, he didn't ask. When he raised his head again, Xiao Long had already disappeared.
Tang Xin who was waiting inside the gym immediately went up and asked when she saw that Deng Fan had returned: "Big Brother Deng, what did you all say?"
Deng Fan had been deep in thought the entire time. After hearing that, he raised his head and looked at Tang Xin, and said slowly after a moment: "Let's not go to that building for now, we'll rest here for a while before making our plans."
"Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Tang Xin asked, "Did that person tell you something?"
Deng Fan could only nod and say: "He told me not to go to the tallest building."
"Why?" Tang Xin asked anxiously.
Deng Fan shook his head and said, "I didn't ask.
"But if we don't go, we won't be able to find our way home, right?" Tang Xin could not help but frown, her face covered with a faint look of sorrow.
"I didn't say I wouldn't go. I just don't want to go for now." Deng Fan said, "I feel that if we want to leave this place, we must uncover the secrets of this place. This matter can be even more complicated than we thought. We might encounter a lot of difficulties, so you have to be aware of it in advance. "
"Do you want to wake up?" Tang Xin slowly lowered her head, "Perhaps I should prepare for the worst?"
Deng Fan did not reply further, because he himself was not sure what kind of difficulties and dangers he would encounter in the future. The only thing he could do was to try his best to protect Tang Xin and try his best to prevent her from getting hungry or hurt.
Following that, Deng Fan brought Tang Xin and found some food in the hotel as well as a few handgun bullets.
After the two of them ate a simple dinner, Tang Xin took a hot bath. Since she had nothing else to do, she laid down on the bed very early.
At this time, Deng Fan was standing in front of the window, looking towards the distant towering building. As his thoughts moved, he suddenly heard a soft question from Tang Xin.
"Big Brother Deng, who is that friend of yours?"
After Deng Fan heard this, he turned around and asked while looking at the lying Tang Xin, "Why do you ask this?"
"Nothing much, I just think that his appearance is a little scary …" Tang Xin said.
"He did look a bit cold today, and he just killed a few people. It's not strange that you feel afraid." Deng Fan said.
"Could he be a bad person?" Tang Xin suddenly asked.
"How is this possible?" Deng Fan was surprised, "If he is a bad guy, then I am a bad guy too right?"
"That's not what I meant …" Tang Xin said worriedly, "I thought that it's been so long since you two last saw each other, could it be that he's turned bad?"
"Impossible!" Deng Fan said very firmly, "He is a hundred percent a good person. Not only is he a good person, he is also a hero. I would rather believe that the sun will rise from the west than that he will turn bad. "
"Then why did he hide it from you?" Tang Xin immediately followed, "I'm also not willing to act together with you."
"He must have had a reason for doing this." Deng Fan said, "We all have a tacit understanding, he knows that I will not pursue the matter further, and I also know that he will not tell."
"What did he tell you?"
"He doesn't say much, but his words confirm a guess of mine. We are indeed being watched …" At this point I suddenly realized that my mouth had been leaked so I quickly changed my words: "He told me not to go to the tallest building, so I thought I should wait and see first before making any plans!"
However, the words that came out were like spilled water. As long as they were heard by others, they would not be taken back. Even concealing everything would not help.
Tang Xin was very sensitive towards the word "surveillance", she immediately asked in shock: "What did you mean when you said we were being watched?"
"Did I say that?" Deng Fan said, "You heard wrong."
"Don't lie to me. Actually, I had my suspicions a long time ago. The reason you used things to seal up those places was to prevent filming, right?" Tang Xin asked with a serious face.
Deng Fan knew that he had covered up everything he said, so he could only nod his head: "That's right, just like you said, we might still be under surveillance. I wasn't going to tell you. I didn't want to burden you, and I was afraid it would cause you discomfort. " After which, he couldn't help but lower his head and sigh.
Tang Xin was silent for a moment, then said: "So you're saying, my previous actions were monitored by others, even in the toilet and bathroom?"
Deng Fan said: "It can only be said that there is such a possibility, as for the extent to which the mastermind has gone insane, I am not sure. But you don't have to worry too much. I've already checked this room, there shouldn't be any hidden cameras or surveillance cameras. " The reason why he said this was purely to comfort Tang Xin. In fact, he hadn't told Tang Xin the entire truth, but had concealed the truth that the technology of this place was far more advanced than the world they were familiar with. That is, it is not realistic to want to check all the cameras and monitors with a normal understanding.
Tang Xin heard and did not display too much shock, she only said indifferently: "I have long since been mentally prepared, even if you did not say it, I would have still known. I feel like we're like mice trapped in a transparent container, with no privacy at all. "
"Don't worry, I will definitely take you out of this cage." Deng Fan said.
"I believe you." Tang Xin slightly nodded, and lightly smiled at Deng Fan.
Deng Fan also returned a faint smile, and slowly walked towards Tang Xin and said: "Don't think too much into it, close your eyes and get a good night's sleep. If you have anything to say, say it tomorrow."
"I still can't sleep. Tell me a story!" Tang Xin shook her head.
"Tell my story again?" Deng Fan was surprised.
"Tell me the story of your friend!" Tang Xin said, "Didn't you say he was a hero? I want to hear about the heroes. "
After Deng Fan heard this, he let out a sigh. He slowly walked to the side of the bed and sat down, then said slowly: "Alright, I'll tell you about him, let's start when he goes to the Dragon Gate."
What followed was a long narration …
