Arrive at the top floor of the hotel, step out of the elevator, and walk through the corridor covered with wool carpets imported from Italy. On both sides of the corridor are some oil paintings that are not sure whether they are real or fake. The long lights embedded above the walls are brewing art. of nobility.
It's just that Gu Yuan doesn't have any artistic skills and knows nothing about this. He is now thinking about whether he can eat early. After all, from morning till now, the bitter tea seeds are almost worn out.
Pushing open the two heavy doors facing each other, the splendid hall is brightly lit.
"Captain Li, brother Gu Yuan, I have to live here for the time being. On the inside are the rooms. There are seven rooms in total. This is the living room." Liang Tao rubbed his hands and turned to Gu Yuan and Li Siming.
"You call this grievance?" Gu Yuan was stunned.
If Liang Tao hadn't explained it, he would have thought that this was a top-notch banquet room, the kind used to host company annual meetings or wedding banquets.
However, looking at the layout here, it is indeed a luxurious living room. A soft leather sofa is placed in the middle, also covered with carpets. There is a bar in front of the bright floor-to-ceiling windows, and next to the bar is the wine cabinet.
Imagine waiting until night to pour a bottle of red wine, then sit at the bar and take in the entire night view of Frost City. It is indeed very emotional.
"What about me? Where do I live?" Kong Baihe said quickly.
Just as Liang Tao was about to speak, Kong Baihe continued: "I think there are quite a lot of rooms here. Otherwise, I might as well live here. Captain Li, do you think it's okay?"
Li Siming glanced at him and said, "You should ask the owner here. Of course I have no objection."
Since Li Siming had no objections, Liang Tao naturally had no objections.
Afterwards, Gu Yuan immediately took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and then he felt alive.
After sitting on the sofa and drinking tea, Liang Tao invited them to the private room below. When they arrived, the dishes had just started to be served. Gu Yuan looked around with emotion.
This should be the most comfortable living environment for me along the way.
"Kong Baihe, if you ask me, don't come to our Star Town Demon Division. Frost City is so nice!" Gu Yuan said with a smile.
Kong Baihe blinked: "It doesn't matter to me, I will come if you come."
Gu Yuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Are we so familiar?"
"Actually, I always thought that we were already good brothers." Kong Baihe looked at Gu Yuan and was about to cry.
Gu Yuan pointed at the door, his face expressionless like a cold-faced killer: "If you want to have fun, go out and play."
After hearing this, Kong Baihe immediately became honest and started picking up the vegetables as if nothing had happened.
Liang Tao originally wanted to open a bottle of liquor, also a vintage Moutai, but Li Siming waved his hand.
"Stop being such a fool. It's inappropriate. Stop leaving."
Liang Tao quickly put it down.
Li Siming winked at Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan understood, but pretended not to understand.
Li Siming was very disappointed with this.
He originally wanted Gu Yuan to put away the two bottles of wine first, but Gu Yuan seemed a little embarrassed. He was a person of status after all, so he couldn't do this kind of thing himself, right?
At the dinner table, Liang Tao finally began to talk about the information about the Frost City Demon Realm.
The short-haired girl sitting next to him took out a document bag wrapped with a rope and handed it to Liang Tao. The other party didn't look at it and handed it to Gu Yuan.
"Here are some information and photos, take a look first."
Gu Yuan reached out, picked up the document bag placed in front of him, untied the rope around it, and the photos inside fell out.
These photos appear to be from the same place, but the changes in light and environment indicate that they were taken at different times.
"There is a date in the upper left corner of the photo." Liang Tao reminded Gu Yuan as he looked at it.
Only then did Gu Yuan focus on time.
There are five photos in total. Judging from the time, they were taken every other month. The most recent one was a week ago.
The content in the photo is roughly the same. It was taken in a mountain forest from a high-down angle. It should have been a drone.
What’s interesting is that the first photo is of a lush forest, but there is a circle in the middle, all of which are covered with fiery red trees, like a large maple forest with red leaves.
In the next few photos, the leaves are gradually withering, but the maple forest is still lush, and the red becomes more and more vivid.
By the time of the last one, the surrounding books had completely withered, leaving only the bare tree trunks, but the fiery red forest was still growing vigorously against the cold wind.
That piece of red looked like dark red blood.
"This red forest is the demon realm?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Not bad!" Liang Tao nodded and said, "If you continue to observe, you will find that under the same height and the same shooting angle, the area covered by this red forest is getting larger and larger, and the speed of the spread of the demon realm is also getting faster. It’s coming faster and faster. All in all, the demon realm in Frost City has reached a point where it has to be dealt with.”
Gu Yuan touched his chin.
No wonder Liang Tao was so impatient.
"What's the reason for this?" Kong Baihe asked doubtfully.
"We don't know yet," Liang Tao said. "After all, we don't have the ability to solve the demon realm. Entering it rashly will be very risky, and we may not be able to find the answer."
Kong Baihe nodded, feeling that what Liang Tao said was reasonable, and asked: "Then, how was this demon realm formed?"
"This is unclear, because the location is deep in the Tianyun Mountain Mountains, so when we discovered it, the Demon Realm had already been formed, and there was also a Demon Suppression Department at first.
The members entered it to look for some clues, but found nothing and lost one person. Liang Tao sighed and said.
"How long has it been since the demon realm was formed?" Gu Yuan asked.
"I can only calculate from the first time we discovered it. After all, we don't know when this demon realm was formed. Well, about seven years." Liang Tao felt a little embarrassed when he said this. .
Looking at Liang Tao who was asking questions, Gu Yuan took a deep look at Li Siming.
No wonder Li Siming asked him to come back and chat with Liang Tao this time. It turned out that he knew that he would not understand anything at all with Liang Tao.
Gu Yuan felt that the people from Shuang Town Demon Division should be held accountable.
What are you busy with every day?
"In other words, we have to find all the information about the Demon Realm ourselves, right?" When Gu Yuan asked this question, he was still a little unwilling to give up.
"Ahem, theoretically, it's like this..." Liang Tao smiled awkwardly, "Brother Gu Yuan, I believe this is not a difficult problem for you. The previous demon realms in Ye City and Bai Jade City , didn’t you solve it without knowing much about it? How complicated can the Demon Realm in Frost City be? I think you can do it!”
In order to give Gu Yuan some blood, he really said anything.
After dinner, Gu Yuan went back to the top floor to rest, while looking through the messages Liang Tao had given him before.
Then, he raised his head, looked at Li Siming, and asked, "Captain Li, when will we set off?"
"It's up to you." Li Siming said casually.
"Huh?" Gu Yuan was stunned when he heard this.
"Look at what I do, I'm not going." Li Siming said, "I'll just wait for you to come back. Besides, don't you still have help?"
With that said, Kong Baihe also came back.
"Nuo, your helper just happened to be back." Li Siming said, "You guys should discuss your plans for tomorrow first. I have gone back to my room to rest. I am getting sleepy easily because of my age."
"Captain Li, wait!" Kong Baihe quickly called him.
As he spoke, he took out two things from behind his back.
Li Siming's eyes suddenly lit up!
