Five minutes ago, Meng Fei walked to the top floor of the office building.
The top floor was a small attic, which was originally filled with old clutter accumulated over hundreds of years.
Looking up there, you can see the huge vault formed by overlapping huge stones and supporting each other.
An old wooden corridor along the stone wall like a cliff path leads to the hexagonal attic under the vault.
Meng Fei walked on the dusty wooden corridor and heard the creaking sound of the rotten wooden boards.
The exposed gaps between the wooden boards can be seen directly to the first floor hall tens of meters below.
All this made his legs feel a little weak.
He was not afraid of heights. Qi Mei gave him the ability to fly. But that was a thousand years ago.
Now his ability has disappeared without a trace. Maybe it disappeared due to death, reincarnation, etc.?
The small wooden door at the end of the corridor was ajar, with a sign hanging above it that read: "No need to knock on the door during work, please come in."
The wooden door is a little short. Meng Fei pushed the door open with a creak, and then he was really surprised. He almost thought he had walked into the vortex of time again!
The layout of this room is exactly the same as Suzaku's laboratory in Suzaku Pavilion.
The same table, the same wooden chairs, the same shelves, and the same numerous and simple sundries on the shelves.
It's just that the copper pot in the center of the room is empty now. There is no fire underneath, and nothing has been cooked yet.
Meng Fei felt that the next scene was that the wooden chair creaked and turned around, and Suzaku in red robe was sitting on the chair and smiling.
But there is no one on the wooden chair now.
"Come out, let's talk outside."
Suzaku's voice came from outside.
There is also a back door to the room. Meng Fei opened the door, and strong sunlight and wind hit his face. Outside is a bell tower with sky on all sides.
Suzaku leaned on the gray, ancient granite railing, looking at the scenery of the reinforced concrete jungle in Wutong City.
"You actually moved your laboratory here?"
When you moved, did you move your bird's nest with it?
For some reason, Meng Fei felt that Suzaku had evil intentions.
He began to think about whether he and Ai Ting should move out in advance to avoid accidents.
"You don't think I moved here just for you, do you?"
Suzaku was wearing a red silk shirt, black women's trousers, and a pair of reddish-brown pointed-toe high-heeled leather shoes, leaning back relaxedly against the stone railing. The wind on the roof blew her long red hair around her fair face.
"All right."
Meng Fei had to admit with embarrassment that for a moment he was indeed a little self-indulgent.
"Then why did you move the laboratory here?"
"For the sake of your goddess. Of course you are also a dangerous person, so let's count each of you half."
"Are you here to protect her?"
"So be it."
There seemed to be a lot of reluctance in Suzaku's eyes.
The current Suzaku is probably the only complete living god in the world.
She was severely injured in the three battles and her strength has not fully recovered, but she is still invincible in this world where all the gods are in darkness.
Letting her be stationed in Munen Hall to protect the future Qingmang Goddess is the most reliable choice.
But in this case, wouldn't it mean that wherever he and Ai Ting move in the future, this person will also have to move with him?
"Isn't this bad?"
Meng Fei hesitated.
"To protect Ai Ting, the most important thing is to keep it secret. As long as no one knows about the relationship between her and the goddess, there will be no way for others to start.
"Only you and I know about this now. Even the President and Li Mu don't know that Ai Ting is very safe.
"But the most powerful Xuannv is stationed in Mu'entang in person, so the Taotie people are more likely to guess that Mu'entang contains the people who need protection the most in this country?"
"Um."
Suzaku smoothed the messy hair on his head, revealing his exquisite face that was as perfect as a doll.
"Although you are right, the prerequisite is that someone knows the relationship between Crested Ibis and Xuannv.
"Currently, apart from you and me, there are only three people, the President, Li Mu and An Tu, who know that Xuannv and Crested Ibis are the same person. These three people are all reliable.
"Everyone in the world thinks that Xuannv is a hundred-year-old old woman, and everyone who has seen me look young has died of old age.
"Furthermore, it is known that Xuannv is currently in seclusion in Zhuque Pavilion in Rongdu and does not see guests at all. Who would have thought that I was Xuannv who appeared in Mu'en Hall?
"So you don't have to worry about my appearance exposing the identity of your goddess."
"All right."
Meng Fei had to admit that the Suzaku lived above his head, which gave him a lot of security.
"Then why did you ask me to come here?"
"I haven't seen you for such a long time, so of course I wanted to say hello to you."
Suzaku smiles like a flower.
"If you and your goddess leave Muen Hall from today on, please send me a message in advance. Just use WeChat."
"this……"
Meng Fei thought to himself, reporting his wife's whereabouts to another woman every day, what is this?
What if my wife finds out? Say you are a goddess and need protection from another goddess?
"Okay, I have nothing to do."
Suzaku looked at Meng Fei with a smile.
"Do you have anything you want to say to me?"
"No. I'll go back first."
Meng Fei decided to go home immediately. After staying out for a long time, if my wife goes back and asks, "Why did it take you so long to come back, what were you doing just now?"
That's it.
He just walked back into the laboratory and was about to open the door when the door was pushed open and someone appeared at the door.
Li Huo?
Meng Fei was too lazy to pay attention to this person. He was about to step aside to let Li Huo pass first, but he suddenly saw Ai Ting following Li Huo?
"Meng Fei?
"Why are you here?"
Ai Ting just wanted to come and see how sacred the crested ibis was, but she never expected to see Meng Fei here?
"I was called by Zhu Xunfa to discuss something."
In this dangerous darkest moment, Meng Fei's mind was racing, and he had already conceived a perfect explanation in his heart.
"oh."
After Ai Ting said oh, she did not continue to question Meng Fei here. Anyway, internal family affairs, no matter how serious they are, can be resolved at home.
Now she just wants to see the woman named Crested Ibis. So he pulled Meng Fei aside and strode into Suzaku's laboratory.
Everything in this laboratory gave her an eerie sense of familiarity. It was like seeing it in a dream.
But she made it very clear that she had never been here before, nor had she seen anything like it elsewhere.
Suzaku just lowered his head and walked in from the back door, wiping out a strand of red hair that was a little scattered around his ears.
There is such a difference between the photos and the real person experience. Judging from the photo, she is just a somewhat attractive red-haired beauty.
With the real person standing in front of her, Ai Ting felt that this woman's appearance posed a real threat to her.
The two goddesses suddenly looked at each other. Although relatively speechless, it seemed like sparks were flying and lightning was flying, and the atmosphere was very tense!
