Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 390

390 Chapter 3 Ninety: Visiting the Shopping Mall

Ever since I found out that Mrs. Huo wanted to take away this style mine, I arranged for two brothers, Chi Yan and Pi Ke, to keep an eye on the Huo family's movements. Anyway, the drawings were not obtained, so the old lady would definitely not give up. She will definitely find Wu Xie tomorrow, and we will start waiting for her to contact Wu Xie.

The little brother wanted me to stretch my legs that had been stiff for a long time, so he took me for a walk in the garden.

As soon as he arrived in the garden, he patted the baby-sized me hanging in his arms with two little hands around his neck. I raised my head and looked at him, and immediately understood what he meant.

The little brother held my waist with one hand and supported my back with the other. I changed my position, grabbed his arms with both hands, and slid down his body while transforming back into a normal-sized Xiaoxun. , then his feet landed on the ground.

As soon as I landed, my legs couldn't bear the strength and I couldn't straighten my waist. I stood crookedly and my body sank downwards.

The little brother held my waist tightly to prevent me from falling, and supported me with his other arm. My legs were a little weak, and I was trembling slightly as I tried to stand firm.

Next, I tried to step forward, but my knees were unruly and stiff, and I couldn't lift them up. The brother put his arms on my body, held my hands, raised my feet slightly off the ground, and asked me to go first. Move your knees.

After a while, I gradually adapted to it, and the little brother changed his posture and stood in front of me. He held my hand tightly with both hands and pulled me backwards and forward little by little. It looked like It looks like a child learning to walk.

I walked around and said to him: "No matter how much money Huo Xiangu spends, she wants to get the style thunder in Wu Xie's hand. She seems to be very eager, but what can she do with such a small part? Unless she has it in her hand There were more pictures of other floors, otherwise she paid a lot of money to get it, and it would be nothing more than a blueprint.

I think we can assume that maybe the rest of the maps are in Huo Xiangu's hands, and she only lacks the ones in Wu Xie's hands. She thinks that the drawings are complete, and she can go into the ancient building to take a look.

However, this set of pictures was collected decades ago in order to enter the ancient building. Logically speaking, it should be kept in "its" hands. What would it mean if the other pictures were in Huo Xiangu's hands? "It" shouldn't spit out the pictures easily. If they don't take the initiative to release the pictures, no one will be able to get them.

To you, these drawings are just topographic maps of your ancestral tomb, but to others, they are a treasure map, especially "it".

Therefore, no matter what the purpose of Huo Xiangu is collecting these maps this time, what is certain is that she must be planning something. There is generally only one situation for collecting maps, which is to use them to indicate the direction to go. I don’t know if she wanted to go to that place on her own, or if someone forced her to.

As for Brother Wu Xie, the drawings he got were obviously taken out from the archives secretly and hidden there intentionally. The way these drawings were hidden seemed to be specially designed to wait for Wu Xie to find them there. They were collected like that.

Wu Xie thinks that the person who hid the blueprints is Qi Yu, but I don't think so. Qi Yu is "its" person. Since he has the authority to put seals on the warehouse, it proves that he was a free employee at that time. This is also It proves that Qi Yu and Wen Jin are very different from those who fled.

Since Qi Yu is "It"'s right-hand man, he shouldn't secretly hide the blueprints and cause "It" such losses. He should just be ordered to put all the information in and lock it up. The person who hid the blueprints is not him. , but the one who sneaked in behind was the one who was right.

The person who came later also went there to check the archives of the archaeological team like Wu Xie, and found the warehouse blocked by iron chains. He broke the chain and sneaked in, found the blueprints, and deliberately hid them according to Qi Yu's habit. Come to think of it, this person should be someone who knows Qi Yu very well and knows that Qi Yu is "it".

Later, this person hid the drawings in a secret space in the archives. On the one hand, it was to prepare for people who would come again later, and on the other hand, if "it" wanted to take action again, they would do nothing without a map or Zhang Qiling. No. "

The row of small footprints that appeared halfway should probably belong to me, but I don't know if they are Ziyan or Xiaoxun from before.

It should have been cleaned before it became a warehouse, so the first row of big footprints should have been left by the person who hid the drawings. This person left a lot of clues for Wu Xie who will go there in the future. I think there must be two One of the three uncles.

The other row of footprints, could it be yours, brother?Because we were in Guangxi when we separated before. When I went to the Queen Mother of the West to see Wen Jin, I felt like she knew me and was quite familiar. They escaped from Golmud before, so we may have reunited and walked together. Going through these tombs, the order we came here this time is the same as last time, so the last time we had an accident should have been near the Zhangjia Ancient Building in Guangxi. Could it be related to the guy with the slumped shoulders? Or maybe it was in the tomb Is there something mysterious and unknowable? "

I suddenly stopped and said: "No, I think we can send some people from the forest on the other side to help us in places with magnetic field problems. We should get twice the result with half the effort. But what did we encounter there last time? You lost your memory and there were no injuries on your body, but I died, what was the reason?"

Seeing that I was lost in thought, my brother suddenly held my face and stared at me. I felt like he had something to say, but he didn’t say anything. We stood frozen on the path among the flowers in the garden for a long time. .

Bai Hao, who was enjoying the cool in the pavilion in the distance, looked at us who suddenly stood still, drank tea, and couldn't help but sigh.

I don't know how long later, Bai Hao answered the phone, hung up the phone after a while, and walked towards our direction.

When he got to us, he looked at us and was stunned for a while before he opened his mouth and said to us: "Old Mrs. Huo told Wu Xie that we have an appointment at the Crescent Hotel the day after tomorrow, so Xiao Wu Xie will be here tomorrow. ”

I was stunned for a moment and asked him: "What? Crescent Hotel, this means there are good things."

Bai Hao nodded and said, "That's for sure. The old lady from the Huo family won't show up if there's no good stuff. She doesn't go to every auction."

I frowned and said, "We made an appointment to meet at the auction. Huo Xiangu came prepared. I don't think it's that simple."

Bai Hao said: "Don't think too much. Anyway, you will soon know what the old lady wants to do."

Later, the little brother took me for a walk, and later he took me to see Brother Xue Feng. He was sleeping and still very weak.

Think about it, I took ten blows, and I was just able to walk. He resisted for dozens of times for me. How could he recover so quickly? I looked at his pale face and touched it distressedly. His body temperature was very high. Low, it feels a little cold to the touch. He has no firepower at all. This is still a fire phoenix, but an ice phoenix beaten by frost.

It was the first time I saw him look so fragile. I was scared, my nose suddenly felt sore, and my vision became blurry.Recalling what Yu Jing said before, Brother Xuefeng didn't want me to touch the affairs of the Yan'er period, and he didn't even want to tell me about the Red Flower Glazed Pill. He handled matters in the city and in the pavilion by himself.

He has always protected the boundary of the forest on the other side very well, as well as the few red flowers in the Purple Jade Palace that are arranged in a formation so that they can bloom every year. He personally guards them day and night every year.

He would fight for me in everything, even if I would never remember that he was my biological brother and my only relative, he would not let me know that I was Zi Yan. He was always afraid of losing me again. .

The little brother noticed my emotional change and immediately touched my head to comfort me.

Li Yue said to me: "His wounds have healed. Now he just needs to cultivate himself well. Don't worry, he will be fine."

Bai Hao also hurriedly said: "Xiao Xun, if you come to see him again in a few days, I promise to make him rosy, white, fat, and jumping around happily."

The next day, Wu Xie came to BJ early in the morning. He and Fatty came to Qilin Pavilion to find us. At noon, we ate the hot pot prepared by Bai Hao together. Wu Xie told us what happened in the past few days and also said we would like Going to the Crescent Hotel.

The fat man said: "This old lady really knows how to choose a place to meet. Crescent Hotel, that's not an ordinary place. It's not easy to get in." He then took a bite of the meat and said with a very satisfied expression: "Oh, it's been a long time ago." I want to eat the hot pot you made. It doesn’t taste like this anywhere else. I’ve been thinking about it for a while, but I’m ready to eat it. By the way, girl, how about we have barbecue next time?”

I nodded and said, "Okay, we'll have barbecue next time. We'll go to the Crescent Hotel tomorrow. We have to get some formal clothes first. After dinner, we'll go get some outfits with me."

The fat man said "Yes" and said, "The outfit is one thing, but it's hard for us to enter such a large event."

Wu Xie said: "Ah? Isn't it?"

The fat man said: "Why not? First of all, you haven't put on your clothes in that place. You can't even touch the door, and the place is membership-only."

I said: "There will be an auction there tomorrow, and the invitations will be checked at the door."

The fat man asked: "Do we have any?"

I took a breath and said, "I really don't have an invitation letter. There are too many things to do in a place like the Crescent Hotel and it's very boring. Even if I have a pass, I'm not interested in going. Let me tell you, you must talk less there." , it’s best not to cause trouble, otherwise the consequences will be serious.”

The fat man chuckled and said, "We haven't gone yet, so don't scare me."

I said to him: "You will know when you go."

After dinner, I took them to a nearby commercial street. The fixed-point transfer station here is a large comprehensive store. There is a supermarket on the ground floor, and clothing, accessories, small commodities, stores, restaurants, and game arcades upstairs. You can say Everything you can think of is here, and there are also things you can't think of. It just depends on who is picking up the goods.

I first took them to the men's formal wear area. When the waiter saw a customer coming, he immediately came to greet him. The waiter recognized Bai Hao immediately. He tilted his head and saw me again. Knowing that he was one of his own, he nodded towards Bai Hao. Bai Hao told him the reason for his visit and asked him to choose some matching clothes and shoes based on the four of them's figures and temperaments. The waiter went to the staff room nearby and called for a matching designer.

Bai Hao said to Wu Xie and Fatty: "We have already agreed that the stylist here will find some outfits that meet our needs. It will take some time, so you can take a look first."

The little brother didn’t seem to be interested in these, and I didn’t know much about men’s clothing, so I took my brother and sat down on the sofa nearby. The little brother habitually began to observe the surrounding environment. The waiter poured us water and took some For some snacks, a stylist collected information about Wu Xie and Fatty's shoulder width, waist circumference, pants length, and shoe size.

The fat man also asked: "Why didn't you ask him?"

I told them: "Brother's equipment is prepared here, and his size records are here."

While waiting, Fatty and Wu Xie took a look around. Fatty took some tie samples and looked at the price tags on them and said, "They are both black ties. This one costs about a hundred yuan, and this one costs more than 1000. What's the difference?" Ah, they look almost the same to me."

Wu Xie smiled, picked up a tie that was also pure black, stuffed it into the fat man's hand and said to him, "Look at this again, it's sixteen thousand."

The fat man looked at him with an incomprehensible look on his face and said, "Fuck!"

We waited for a while, and someone came towards us pushing a trolley filled with matching accessories and three rows of hangers with suits. The matching designer was also very close by and came to us quickly.

The matching artist told them which rack was for whom, and Wu Xie and Fatty started to look at it. I took the little brother to the clothes rack, and he stood there quietly, not knowing what he was looking at. After seeing those things, I had no choice but to help him choose.

We all know that he wears dark-colored suits, and all three suits are black, but there are some differences in details. I think they all look good on him, so I have to consider the comfort and ease of movement.

White shirts are easy to choose, and I finally chose a suit. The one with a label on it said, "Imported high-count, 100% wool, delicate and soft." It also said, "Comfortable, anti-wrinkle, high breathability." The fit is good and the feel is good. That's fine, I took the clothes off the hanger, handed them to him with a smile and said, "Brother, try this outfit."

He looked at the clothes, slowly raised his hand, took the clothes with one hand, took my wrist with the other hand, turned around and pulled me into the fitting room.
