"Are you sure that the people here are really okay? They won't want to arrest you again, right?" Li Wenxi asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we are all family here. I have confirmed it, there is no problem."
At this time, Li Wenxi and Xu Ying were in a high-rise building.
Moreover, it was exactly one of the three tallest buildings in the city that Li Wenxi had seen before.
The two were in the elevator at this time, rising to the upper floors at a high speed.
The entire high-rise building has two hundred floors and is estimated to be about eight or nine hundred meters high. The elevator is outside the building. Through the transparent elevator body, you can see the city outside falling at a rapid speed.
"Then... then I trust you. You've lived for hundreds of years, so you shouldn't mess up, right?" Li Wenxi muttered as he leaned against the transparent glass and looked outside. "But why do we have to go so high up in the building? Can't we go somewhere else? I can't escape here even if I want to."
"Hundreds of years old..." Xu Ying's mouth twitched slightly, and she said dissatisfiedly, "Can you please stop saying that to me? Although I am indeed hundreds of years old, my body is very young!"
"Yes, yes... Which floor are we going to?" Li Wenxi looked at the elevator. In such a short time, the elevator had already risen nearly a hundred floors.
"Why are you like my brother?" Xu Ying complained, then said, "Of course it's the top floor. I brought you here to naturally take you directly to the most important place and discuss with the most important people!"
"Um... who is this? What is this place for? Can you tell me?" Li Wenxi came over and asked in a low voice.
She was suddenly teleported to this building by Xu Ying, and before she even figured out what was going on, she was already on the elevator.
She always felt that she was being spied on and eavesdropped on in this elevator, so she subconsciously lowered her voice.
"Hehe, you might be surprised if I tell you this, but this is the landmark building of the family in charge of military power in the human base." Xu Ying was also influenced by Li Wenxi and whispered with a smirk.
"Military...military?" Li Wenxi was shocked. "Does that mean they have a lot of high-tech weapons?"
"Hmm...it's quite a lot indeed." Xu Ying nodded her lips, thinking as she spoke, "After all, this is the family that my brother supports. He has put a lot of effort into making it a force to resist alien invaders on Earth in the future."
"Your brother..." Li Wenxi was stunned for a moment, then realized she was talking about the disappeared Xu Xin. She then became worried, "Now that your brother is gone, they're so strong, can you guarantee that they..."
"Don't worry, their interests are aligned with mine." Xu Ying was very confident. "I was friends with the head of their family fifty or sixty years ago. We were very familiar with each other back then, so familiar that my brother was almost jealous. Hehe, but he's almost eighty now, right? I can't believe how he looks..."
Li Wenxi blinked.
This is really a bit strange.
I wonder how that guy would feel when he sees Xu Ying, who still has a young girl's face.
"Is that... a military base up there?" Li Wenxi asked, looking at the elevator display that had jumped to the 150th floor.
"How is that possible? Who would build a military base on such a tall building?" Xu Ying shook her head.
"Then here..."
"Oh, you'll know once you get there. No need to be too nervous, sister-in-law. This is just a... um, landmark building?"
As she spoke, she pointed to two other tall buildings outside.
"Like those two, they symbolize the three pillars of the aristocratic families. In reality, these three tall buildings basically only serve this purpose. They are basically useless and are even opened as tourist attractions during the peak season."
"There's this kind of operation..."
"But it's not the peak season now, so we're not open. And in terms of confidentiality, this place is very strong. After all, although it's just a symbol, we have to do it well, right?" Xu Ying knocked on the transparent glass of the elevator. "Don't think we're transparent from the outside. No one outside can see us. This is one-way glass."
"Then who we are going to see is..."
"bite!"
There was a crisp sound and the elevator door opened.
"Come and take a look and you'll know." Xu Ying pulled Li Wenxi out of the elevator.
There was a door as soon as they came out of the elevator. Xu Ying reached out and pushed the door open, then pulled Li Wenxi in.
As the top floor of a building eight or nine hundred meters high, the area here is not very large.
Although the area of the first floor is not small, the top is a spire-style building. From a height of about 700 meters, the area begins to shrink layer by layer, and finally at the top, there is only an area of less than 100 square meters left.
The style here is very serious. There is a huge long solid wood table surrounded by a circle of solid wood chairs. There is also a huge white screen hanging on the wall and several projectors on the ceiling.
It looked like a serious meeting room.
At this time, there were two people sitting on the main seat and the secondary seat of the conference table.
One of them was an old man with gray hair and deep wrinkles on his forehead. His two pale eyebrows were straight and thick, giving people a strong sense of majesty, a feeling of having been in a high position for many years.
And the person sitting in the passenger seat was indeed a girl of about the same age as the two of them, who looked somewhat similar to the old man.
Even when she was sitting there, she stood straight, had a pretty face, and short straight black hair that only reached her earlobes, but her face was expressionless and she looked very serious.
