This place is very organized. On the left hand side is a series of side-by-side knife racks. On the right hand side is a wall of firearms. A soft Simmons bed is placed in the center. When sleeping at night, Chu Tianjiao basically hugs it. The weapon slept.
There was a fitness blanket in the corner next to the bed, surrounded by dumbbells, which were bigger than Chu Zihan's head. There is also a very beautiful log-style desk, with some daily necessities such as books and notes on the table, plus a photo frame, which contains a photo of Chu Zihan, Su Xiaoyan and Chu Tianjiao many years ago. At that time, she was still It's so small that it can be lifted high on dad's shoulders.
Chu Zihan casually picked up a pistol from the weapon rack. She recognized it as a Beretta M9. Lu Tianming took her to the shooting range. The first time she held a gun, she fired 15 rounds of 9 She got a good score of ten rings. The teacher who accompanied her said that she was a natural shooter.
The magazine can be ejected easily, and it is full of bullets. However, unlike the common brass-cased bullets, these bullets are made of steel, with complex patterns engraved on the tips, and are as deep as bleeding. .
She reloaded the magazine, loaded the gun, and fired a round at the wall above the bed. The bullet hit and a red mist bloomed. Although she didn't know what the purpose of this bullet was, this gun was indeed usable. It has been well maintained and the shell still has a bright luster.
Such a gun and the bullets inside cost almost 300 US dollars. According to the current exchange rate, it is more than 2,000 yuan, not to mention the more expensive semi-automatic rifles and even sniper rifles on the shelf. The prices of those will only go up.
I don’t know if the so-called Kassel Academy has provided enough funds to Chu Tianjiao. At least he probably spent his own money here. That’s why he is a poor class. He has only one cent of the money from the academy. It won't be given to the mother and daughter, it will only be given to myself, which is a little bit less.
These weapons can arm him into a ferocious thug in minutes, but he always smiles so humblely. In the end, even the person disappears, and the only things left behind are these cold metals that no one cares about.
Chu Zihan pulled out his chair and sat in front of the desk. The books on the table had interesting names, such as "Research on Dragon Genetics", "Dragon Skeleton: The Super Evolution of Reptiles", and "Dragon Priest Ritual". …
I casually opened a book, which used extremely academic language to explain these things, as well as Chu Tianjiao's own comments and corrections, like a teacher's lesson plan. It turns out that everything he said was true. There are indeed dragons and hybrids in this world, and there are also a group of guys who regard dragons as their research subjects.
Opening the drawer, there were unexpectedly a few packs of chocolates inside. It seemed that he would use this kind of stuff to replenish his energy when he couldn't eat. Under the chocolate was a bank card, which was probably his savings. Chu Zihan picked it up and was suddenly stunned. He turned over the card. There was a note on the back of the card with five words written on it. .
Daughter's dowry.
There was a place in my heart that trembled quietly. Those words were not just bragging... He was really trying to save money. In addition to maintaining the necessary maintenance of his arsenal, he also saved all his wages and hoped that in the future When his daughter gets married, he, as the biological father, can provide some dowry.
But he didn't say anything, even if his daughter said he was irresponsible. Most fathers in the world are like this. In fact, he has always loved her, but didn't know how to express it, so he could only carefully please Chu Zihan. , as a biological father, he is as humble as a hired driver. Only when they are in the car can the two of them say what they want to say after a long absence.
How much money will be in the card? Specific numbers may not play a big role in Chu Zihan's current life. Chu Tianjiao is very insistent. What is public is public, and what is private is private. The distinction is clear. All the wealth he has saved over the years is in this card. Chu Zihan only needs to go to the bank and prove his identity to inherit this property. In this way, she can deduce from the specific figures how much Chu Tianjiao earns every month. How to live.
But she didn't dare, because she was afraid that her father might live in even greater poverty than she imagined. Perhaps sitting at a roadside stall with the security guard and sharing intestines and spicy wings was the most beautiful embellishment in his life. Most of them He had to drive the Maybach at night, like a wanderer wandering around the city, looking at the long streets one after another, and returning to his own hunter's cabin after being exhausted.
In another drawer is a stack of notebooks, which are all written by Chu Tianjiao:
On June 30, 1908, the Tunguska explosion caused a mushroom cloud to rise from the center of the explosion. The shock wave shattered glass 650 kilometers away. The night sky across Eurasia turned dark red, and people nearby mistakenly thought that the sun had risen early.
On August 30, 1900, during the Summer of Mourning, the mysterious ancient corpse awakened, the Kassel Manor near Hamburg was destroyed, and the elite secret party Lionheart was wiped out. The only survivor was Hilbert Jean Angers. .
On the night of December 25, 1991, the night when the Soviet Union collapsed, a violent explosion occurred in the frozen tundra zone of the Arctic Circle and at the frozen port north of Verkhoyansk. A group of fighter jets sent to conduct reconnaissance was attacked by mysterious creatures. Officials blocked relevant information. and denied the existence of the matter.
On November 7, 2002, in the waters of Greenland, guided by a mysterious heartbeat, the Kassel College Executive Department went to investigate and encountered an enemy suspected of being the Dragon King in the depths of the ice sea. The entire army was nearly wiped out, with only one and a half people surviving.
…
There are many events recorded on it, some of which are even the history that Chu Zihan knows, but in Chu Tianjiao's writing, these things are interpreted in another way. Everything is related to the dragon race, which is active in the shadow of human society. Among them, just like the driving force behind the scenes, Chu Tianjiao himself had to stay in this city all the time because of the so-called Nibelungen, the country of the dead.
Chu Zihan sat on the edge of the bed, facing the room full of cold weapons. She felt that she couldn't sleep in a place like this. The surroundings were full of coldness. Those things must have been stained with Deadpool's blood. , and were later cleaned up, so Deadpool's ghost has been lingering around them, smelling of blood.
Has he been living like this all these years? Eating alone, driving alone, wielding a sword alone in the long night, accompanied by flying blood and the new moon, it really sounds like something that no one knows about a hero. In fact, he also wants to have a normal family, right? But as he said, he is a mixed race, and after opening the door to the Dragon Clan, he can never go back.
He is really not a dragon-slaying hero, he is just an ordinary person who wants to be ordinary but cannot.
"As a mixed race, you will have to leave your original world one day. At that time, you will understand that dragon blood is born to be a burden. That is why you are different from others. You are smart enough, but you have always been smart. alone."
I missed his voice again. Because he had been there, he knew his situation, and he also knew that Chu Zihan would encounter the same situation one day in the future.
In fact, this sentence was what he really felt. It was rare for him to say it so simply. It was a pity that Chu Zihan didn't understand it at the time.
Chu Zihan felt a little tired. She was lying on the soft big bed and suddenly noticed a silver suitcase placed under the knife holder. She had not noticed it just now because of the viewing angle.
She fished out the suitcase. The outer shell was very beautiful, bright silver like alloy, with a familiar symbol engraved on it, the World Tree of Kassel College.
Odin wanted to get something from Chu Tianjiao, but he failed. Chu Tianjiao died on the viaduct in the Nibelung, which was the dream that Chu Zihan had. After that, the fake Odin appeared. The Chu family made a fuss in the villa, but still didn't achieve anything. So could this thing be hidden next to Chu Tianjiao?
Thinking of this Chu Zihan opened the suitcase, this thing can be regarded as Chu Tianjiao's relic. As the direct heir, she has the right to do anything with it.
There are some square boxes inside, covered with soft brocade, used to store special rice paper. There are many incomprehensible characters printed on the rice paper, some are as rough as golden snakes dancing wildly, and some are as graceful as green mountains and flowing water.
These are obviously some rubbings, which are most commonly used in archaeology, such as inscriptions and bronzes. Chu Zihan has seen it on TV. The ancients had a government agency specifically responsible for rubbings. This is an ancient skill. , Could it be that Chu Tianjiao has also been engaged in archaeological work?
Chu Zihan gently stroked the ink marks on the rice paper. These should be the so-called dragon texts. There was a book on the table called "Longwen Interpretation". The large characters on the cover were very similar to these.
She had never learned this language, but at the moment she seemed to be able to read some of the words and know what they meant, but if it were a complete sentence, she would be completely incomprehensible. It feels a bit like Japanese. If you don't hear the last word in a sentence, you can't understand the meaning.
Complex patterned characters kept coming into her mind, and Chu Zihan gradually became dizzy. She seemed to be able to see many phantom-like scenes. A woman with slit golden pupils in her forehead was lying on the black stone throne, with a long sword made of white bones stuck in her chest; The girls rolled on the altar, screaming in pain, as if they were a precursor to childbirth; the black wings were raised in the sunset, covering half of the sky, and on the vast loess, there were people looking into the distance; the copper pillars were bound by chains. The woman slowly opened her eyes, her white hair flying, and two lines of thick bloody tears shed from her eyes...
She didn't dare to read any more. These words seemed to be magical and would trigger something similar to resonate, leading to a fantasy world in the depths of her mind.
Are dragons and hybrids originally such things? The incredible power of words and spirits, the words that can create impressions, these are like the wizarding world described by Rowling, living in human society, but not integrated with the world known to the public.
Chu Zihan put the rubbings away again and looked back at the room again. Chu Tianjiao had spent so many years here, but there were only so few traces left. After he left, what would happen to the Nibelungen in this city? Woolen cloth? Will there still be Deadpools coming out to kill people? What to do with those things?
No one had ever told her that she would have to take on any great responsibilities in her life, but she always silently resisted on her own. For example, when she became the student council president of Shilan Middle School, no president before her had ever been Care about every student. Another example is that she has a lot of financial economics stuff on her bookshelf. That's because she knows that she may have to inherit Lu Tianming's family business in the future, and has even thought about applying for a finance major in the future. Columbia University is good, and their companies Risk management is famous.
She silently stared at the pistol and bullets on the workbench, and the sword on the other side also looked at her coldly. These things could not speak at all, but they seemed to be sending an invitation to Chu Zihan, saying that Chu Tianjiao had left. Now, all the weapons in this hunter's cabin belong to her. The heroes who guarded the city have been eliminated. Her daughter is still alive and should inherit the mantle from her father.
After hesitating for a long time, Chu Zihan walked to the workbench, took away the two pistols and several boxes of ammunition and put them into his satchel. These things are contraband. If she is discovered, she will be sent to prison, and Lu Tianming may not be able to save her by then.
But she just felt that she should hold these weapons. Her father's words always lingered in her ears. Hybrids are different from ordinary people. Once you realize that you have dragon blood, it is equivalent to opening a door. The door of no return.
Chu Tianjiao is probably dead, otherwise there wouldn't be any news for more than a month. There is still an invisible Nibelung in this city, and there will always be some deadliest people running out to do evil. If no one controls it, They rely solely on modern police science to investigate mysterious forces that they have no idea about, and there will be many victims in the process.
Someone has to take responsibility for these things. Chu Tianjiao has never told her this, but now she feels this way. If she puts on a pistol and holds a long knife, she will cruise through the long night like him.
This feeling doesn't feel like a dragon-slaying hero, but rather like some kind of magical girl comic. A pretty girl on weekdays will wear a BlingBling skirt at night, and even her side breasts will be exposed. She also has to make cute poses and say her transformation lines.
White! shine! Miracle flower! I am White Lily! On behalf of love and justice, I will destroy you!
...It's all because he watches too many animations with Chu Yi in his free time. At the moment, Chu Zihan's mind is filled with scenes of him wearing shameful clothes, waving a magic wand and fighting tentacle monsters.
Just think of it like this. The old Chu Zihan has disappeared. The new Chu Zihan is a dragon hybrid. He will serve as the watchman of this city and fulfill his duty to protect peace like a magical girl.
