Light Barrier

Chapter 265

Cui Zhongcheng stood on the layers of dead leaves, looked at the long and narrow mountain road in the distance, and reached out to knock on the car window.

There was another person sitting in the car.

"Mr. Xiao Cui..."

Zhao Qi was sitting on pins and needles. He didn't dare to get out of the car and looked through the car window in the direction Lu Nanzhi came from. He knew better than anyone what this conversation meant... what his father was going to do to him in the Liberty Auditorium. Things, tell the truth.

None of the people under Lu Nan Zhi's hands are good!

But... there seems to be good news.

This time Lu Nanzhi came, and it seemed that she didn't bring anyone with her.

At least so far, he hasn't seen the disaster star he fears most...

"Where did the crow go? Is he here?" Zhao Qi huddled in the back seat and carefully observed the circle, fearing that he would be discovered by the other side. However, after looking for a long time, he realized that Lu Nanzhi seemed to have only two people with him.

I had met one before at a free dance.

It seems like someone from the tribunal?

The other one... was dressed very strangely, wearing a round-shouldered cloak. He shouldn't be an extraordinary person from Dongzhou, but looking at his outfit, he didn't look like a master.

Zhao Qi's eyesight was limited and he was afraid that he might miss something.

"Song Ci didn't come." Cui Zhongcheng said calmly, "Why, are you afraid of being beaten by him?"

"no......"

Zhao Qi swallowed, his voice was very low, and he corrected without any confidence: "...because he was afraid of being beaten to death."

That guy Song Ci is known as a lunatic.

He was caught red-handed before the dance and was almost skinned.

If he were here today, he would not dare to get out of this car no matter what.

Cui Zhongcheng adjusted his glasses and said softly: "I might as well tell you the truth. Song Ci was injured in the battle against the 【Apostle】 and is currently recovering from his injuries."

Hearing this, Zhao Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

"But... can you escape for a day or a year?" Mr. Xiao Cui added: "After the battle between the apostles, Song Ci's status is completely different from before. Now he is an important figure in the East Continent Council, absolutely The core, the 【Apostle】 who carries the will of the God Throne. After his injury is healed, if he wants to catch you, it will be useless if you hide anywhere in Dadu."

Hearing this, Zhao Qi was startled.

He was in a daze and said subconsciously: "But my father..."

He stopped mid-sentence.

He also saw the figure of Lu Nanzhi pushing her wheelchair through layers of dead leaves and entering the barren mountains at dusk in the car.

"Judgment Office, Gu Shen." Cui Zhongcheng simply introduced Gu Shen and said, "Mr. Shu's closed disciple, the new S-class."

"I've admired him for a long time..." Zhao Qi sat in the car and didn't want to move. To be precise, he didn't dare to move.

I'm hiding in this corner, and I'm looking for you, what good can I do?

"You're welcome... Mr. Zhao, we are all old acquaintances." Gu Shen smiled and asked, "Mr. Xiao Cui, can I have a chat with him alone?"

Since when... Gu Shen and Zhao Qi have become old acquaintances?

Cui Zhongcheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

He saw Zhao Qi's hunched-up posture in the car, and the expression of resistance written on his face... That expression almost showed our unfamiliarity written on his face.

Zhao Qi looked at Cui Zhongcheng asking for help.

Is this hoping that I will politely refuse?

Mr. Xiao Cui said in a very soft voice: "Since we are old acquaintances, I won't disturb you two from reminiscing."

He did not speak for Zhao Qi, but chose to leave.

The whole world seemed to be quiet.

Gu Shen gently pressed down the rolled-down window glass with one hand. The palm of his hand did not exert much force, but the master control system of the entire car connected to the deep sea failed. Zhao Qi, who was trying hard to maintain a dignified manner, poked the remote control button. The windows can no longer be rolled up.

"Master Zhao?"

Gu Shen frowned slightly and said with a smile, "You don't seem to welcome me?"

"No way..." Zhao Qi smiled palely, "It's just that we've only met once, so we don't seem to be old acquaintances... I guess there's nothing to talk about... right?"

"Oh...really?"

Gu Shen said softly: "Think about it carefully, have you really only met once?"

Zhao Qi was stunned.

A wisp of flame flashed from the center of Gu Shen's eyebrows, bringing a wisp of memory from one late night in the old city into Zhao Qi's mind.

Night breeze. street lights. motorcycle. Alcohol.

And...a hard punch.

Countless flashbacks, and finally like a firing pin igniting, Zhao Qi woke up from his memory in an instant, gasping for air, and looked at the young man outside the car window in shock.

"That night, was it you?!"

Gu Shen smiled softly, "So... we are old acquaintances."

He pointed to the car and asked: "I want to talk to you... Should you come out or should I go in?"
