"What? What do you mean Zhou Jiaonan is in there?" I was so excited that I almost rushed over, but fortunately Heizi held me back.
"We don't know the name. The higher ups asked us to take you in." The two looked serious.
Just then, my phone rang.
"Hey, Lao Zhou, how are you?" I quickly picked up.
"Did someone take you in?" Lao Zhou was very clear-headed and direct this time.
"What?" I said and looked at the two people in front of me. It couldn't be such a coincidence, right?
"I've called Lao Zhou. He's at the airport. Someone will take you in." Lao Zhou's tone seemed to be snickering, and I didn't know if it was an illusion.
"Are you here to take us in?" I looked at the two people in front of me stupidly.
"Yes, we happened to be on patrol, and we just received the notice to take you in." The two of them nodded towards me.
"Thank you, thank you Lao Zhou." I said gratefully to the phone.
"It's a small matter, please be safe." Lao Zhou said and hung up the phone.
"What did he say?" Heizi looked at me nervously.
"Lao Zhou said to pay attention to safety. Did he not wake up?" I looked at Heizi doubtfully.
"I guess so!" Heizi nodded.
"Then I'll ask you two to lead the way." Heizi looked at the two people in front of him with a smile.
"Let's go." The two of them were happy and walked forward.
The few of us looked at each other and had no choice but to follow them obediently. We followed the two of them for a long distance along the fence in front of us, and finally arrived at the gate.
"This place is not a civilian airport. Keep a low profile when entering." Heizi reminded us in a low voice.
"You don't have to say..." I'm not a fool. The people standing guard in front of the door all have guns in their hands.
The two people leading the way came forward to communicate, and the person in the guard box made another phone call, and then they agreed to let us in.
"Wait here for a moment." The two men took us through the gate and ignored us. After saying this, they turned around and went out to patrol.
"What's going on?" I looked at Heizi.
"Let's just wait, be patient, don't be underestimated." Heizi seemed to see something, but he didn't say it clearly.
Fortunately, a green off-road vehicle arrived shortly after.
"Get in the car." The driver waved to us.
"How did you know it was us?" I looked at the driver with some confusion.
".." The driver smiled and said nothing.
"Are you stupid? You can tell just by looking at your clothes." Heizi gave me a helpless look and got directly onto the off-road vehicle.
".." Peony and Haitang covered their mouths and snickered, and followed suit.
"Dahei, am I stupid?" I looked at Dahei at my feet, feeling a little depressed.
"Ugh..." Dahei glanced at me and seemed to sigh.
The off-road vehicle didn't drive very fast, but the place was really big, and we passed several levels one after another.
"We're here, go in." The off-road vehicle parked outside a hangar. We couldn't see what was going on inside because the huge hangar only had a small door open.
Even though it was a small door, there were two soldiers with guns standing in front of it.
We had to jump out of the car and walk towards the small door.
The strange thing is that the two soldiers in front of the door didn't stop us, we just walked in.
"On the second floor in front, the one with the lights on." After we entered the door, someone threw this sentence to us.
"Thank you." Kuroko looked very happy.
"Wow, it's so big in here..." Peony exclaimed as soon as she entered.
"Of course, where the plane is parked." Heizi explained proudly.
"Have you ever served as a soldier in a place like this?" Haitang looked at Heizi curiously.
"The place I live in is much more advanced than here..." Heizi said, but his expression was a little unnatural.
"Stop talking so much, find Zhou Jiaonan first." I ignored everyone and walked forward.
This place is indeed big, but the place we are looking for is also very conspicuous. Although there is a circle of steel frame buildings around it, only the second floor directly in front has lights on.
I ran forward in three steps and two steps at a time, but Dahei, who always liked to take the lead, followed me closely and did not run forward.
I glanced at Dahei who happened to look up at me, and I was shocked. I had seen Dahei's expression before, and there was a master on the second floor in front of him.
The door was closed, and the four of us and one dog stood outside the door panting, not because we were tired, but because we were nervous.
I exhaled, stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Come in." A somewhat old, but very majestic voice came.
Pushing the door open, it looked like a command room. I glanced at the room. There were three men and two women, one of whom was Zhou Jiaonan.
"Jiao Nan..." I said and wanted to step forward, but Heizi grabbed me.
"Xiaotian..." Zhou Jiaonan also stood up immediately, but she glanced at the old man sitting at the table and did not dare to approach me.
I turned my head and glanced at Heizi with a frown, but Heizi's eyes pointed me towards the old man.
There was a man standing next to the old man. He looked to be in his forties and was dressed in black casual clothes. Different from the majesty of the old man, this man just stood there, making people feel that he was unapproachable.
As for the old man, he should be Zhou Jiaonan's grandfather. Although he was wearing casual clothes, his temperament did not need to be reflected by clothing.
Looking at another man, he has some traces of Zhou Jiaonan on his face, and he looks like a successful man in a suit and leather shoes. He should be Zhou Jiaonan's father.
There was another beautiful middle-aged woman who didn't need to guess that she was Zhou Jiaonan's mother, because the mother and daughter looked so much alike.
"What's your relationship with Lao Zhou?" The old man looked at us with a smile, his smile was kind, but his majesty remained the same.
"Brother." Heizi took the lead and answered with his head raised.
"Hahaha, this old guy still hasn't changed, but since you can let Lao Zhou take action, you should have something." The old man in front of him smiled heartily, and the tense atmosphere seemed to have nothing to do with him.
"Hey, is this Dahei?" the old man said, standing up and saw Dahei at my feet.
"Woof..." Dahei yelled.
But he didn't call to scare people. This call was more like greeting an old man, because Dahei was wagging his tail at this moment.
"Yes, yes, it is indeed a good dog. It seems that I have to find a chance to visit Lao Zhou. I heard that Dahei has left a seed? Right?" The old man looked at Dahei with a gentle smile and continued to squat as he spoke. He lowered his body and stretched out his arms towards Dahei.
Dahei was very sensible, but at this moment he was in a dilemma, so he had to turn his head and look at me.
The people in front of me were Zhou Jiaonan's family members. Even if I was angry, I couldn't show it here. I could only nod towards Dahei.
Dahei saw me nodding, wagging his tail and walked towards the old man, sat meekly in front of the old man, and let the old man stroke his head.
When dealing with strangers, Dahei only behaved this way towards two people, one was Lao Zhou, and the other was the old man in front of him.
The time he met the ageless woman, that woman didn't touch Dahei. It was Dahei himself who was submissive and coquettish in front of that woman.
"Are you Zhang Tianyi?" I was thinking about how to speak when the old man stood up and looked at me.
"Yes." I nodded respectfully.
"Grandpa, everything is my own decision and has nothing to do with Xiaotian." Zhou Jiaonan couldn't help but speak.
But judging from the behavior of Nan's father and Nan's mother, they probably didn't dare to interrupt in front of the old man. They just frowned but said nothing.
"I asked Xiaonan to practice martial arts since she was a child, not to strengthen her body, but to give her the ability to protect herself." The old man raised his hand and pointed at Zhou Jiaonan, but his eyes were always on me.
"I know." I really didn't know what to say other than this at the moment.
"I agreed to let her become a police officer just because when she met ordinary people, she had fists and feet. When she met gangsters, she had a gun in her hand. Although there was danger, at least she could protect herself." The old man still looked at me.
"Yes, you are right." I nodded and stood still.
"But what you are facing is something that even a gun cannot deal with. How can she protect herself? How can you protect her? Do you dare to say that she has not been injured? She has not faced the threat of death?" When the old man said this, his tone was no longer kind. , and significantly increased the volume.
I really didn't expect that the old man could express the essence of the problem clearly in such a few sentences.
So much so that I originally came to ask for someone, but at this moment my heart was immediately shaken, because the old man was right, I was indeed unable to protect Zhou Jiaonan.
