One o'clock in the morning.
The BBQ restaurant is closed.
After Lu's father and mother packed up the shop, they went upstairs to sleep.
Louis didn't take out his cell phone until he heard Lu's father and mother snoring. He sent a message to Du Xing on the way home.
【Louis: OK.】
[Du Xing: Got it, I'll drive over right away.]
Louis looked at the white ground outside the bedroom window, which was bathed in cold light.
Half an hour later.
A white car was parked on the street with a clean white surface.
A burly man in a windbreaker walked down and waved to Louis at the window.
Louis understood, then carefully took his shoes in his hands and stepped barefoot to the window.
Climb down the water pipe.
Louis went barefoot because he was afraid of the frictional noise of his shoes.
But as soon as he started climbing down, Louis regretted it.
It was really damn cold that day. The moment my feet touched the water pipe, it felt like they were touching a piece of ice that was emitting chilly air. It was freezing cold.
Not to mention, there was a strong wind outside the window, and the cold wind blew into Louis' trouser legs and into his crotch.
After a burst of cold and sour feeling.
Louis suppressed the chill and jumped lightly from the water pipe.
Then he quickly put on two sneakers.
He rushed into Du Xing's white car in a hurry.
The heater was on in Du Xing's white car, so it was warm inside the car.
Louis, who had originally felt like he was in an ice cellar, entered the white car and felt as if he were bathed in a spring breeze. The coldness in his body instantly dissipated.
"Wow - I'm freezing to death." Louis closed the car door tightly, rubbing his hands together, and getting ready to fight.
Du Xing got into the car with a funny look on his face, closed the door, turned around to look at Louis who was freezing cold, and joked: "When you went out the window, you knew it was cold, why didn't you put on your shoes?"
Louis paused for a second, looking at his bedroom window with lingering fear, and murmured, "Putting on shoes makes noises, I don't want to make my parents worry."
Du Xing's face froze, and a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes: "Mom and Dad?"
"My daughter should be your age by now."
"Your condolences..."
"Fuck your condolences, my daughter is not dead." Du Xing hit Louis on the head with a club and continued unhappily, "But as a superpower who awakened at a young age, she was admitted to the superpower training base. I don't know how she is doing now."
When Du Xing said this, a trace of melancholy flashed across his face. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms and put a small cigarette in his mouth. It was obvious that he was worried, so he smoked a small cigarette.
"My daughter's future is bright. I dare not imagine how powerful the superpowers she has been training to be since she was young will be."
A person with special abilities who has been trained since childhood...
Louis pondered over this sentence carefully, and soon discovered the clue, and asked: "Captain Du, could it be that your daughter has had supernatural powers since she was a child?"
Du Xing exhaled a puff of white smoke, turned the car key, stepped on the clutch, and slowly lifted it up, followed by the roar of the engine.
Du Xing's voice also rang out: "Yes, that's right, it's no secret, people with superpowers are divided into acquired and innate."
"You are one of those who have awakened later in life. Of course, so am I. I should say that so far, most people are like this."
"Innate awakening means that children born to people with acquired awakening abilities will basically inherit their parents' abilities."
"Excellent people may even inherit all the abilities from both their parents."
"In order to protect those with innate abilities, all countries have decided to gather them in one place and train them until they are eighteen years old, and then they will return to their respective families."
"And every person with innate superpowers has a promising future."
Louis listened to a lot of what Du Xing said. Du Xing's words seemed relaxed and comfortable, and he even emphasized that the future was limitless.
But Louis saw the loneliness in Du Xing's eyes, and asked a heart-wrenching question: "As a father, are you really willing to put your child in that training base and not be able to go home until he is 18 years old?"
Du Xing's throat moved slightly, his pupils trembled, and finally he lowered his head, remained silent, and continued driving.
There was a whistling sound of cold wind outside the window, and there was dead silence inside the car.
At this moment, the white car drove through the mountain road, and there was a warning sign on the side: "No entry for strangers."
"The Night Stalkers are law enforcers who sneak into the middle of the night to protect an area. But at the same time, we are human beings, and as human beings we have seven emotions and six desires, and we will have distracting thoughts." Du Xing finally said this.
Louis wanted to ask something else.
“Sizzle—”
The white car just happened to stop.
Du Xing put out the cigarette with his hand and said, "We're here."
Louis looked out the car window.
It is surrounded by mountains and forests, and there is a large pond on the side.
and a striped stone door carved with a nightingale set into a mountain wall.
Du Xing got out of the car, walked straight to the Nightingale Stone Gate, and slowly extended his hand.
The nightingale on the striped stone gate seemed to be in spirit at this moment, and a sharp glance flashed across its crimson eyes.
Finally, with a click, the stone door slowly opened.
"Brat, follow me." Du Xing said to Louis who was watching from behind.
Upon hearing this, Louis followed obediently.
As Louis and Du Xing walked in.
The stone door closed with a click.
Louis followed Du Xing into the stone gate, and the scene before him stunned him for a moment.
Outside the stone gate are ancient forests and mottled stone walls, while inside the stone gate is a space full of futuristic technology.
