"How did it suddenly catch fire?"
"Quickly, put out the fire!"
The port workers, who had been distracted by the old mule's men in the distance, saw the flames that suddenly turned the sky red and rushed over in fright.
Hua Changle and his two companions, oblivious to the approaching crowd from the shadows, exchanged glances and walked away against the flow of traffic.
...
On the vast sea, a person stands on the deck of a ship, and can see a red star shining in the night on the shore in the distance.
"Fire?"
A cool voice drifted into the night, and the fox-like eyes beneath her butterfly-wing-like eyelashes shimmered like a spring that never dries up.
The person standing on the deck is Lu Sheng.
He is also the "deification faction" – Elder Fox – mentioned by She Haoyun and Master Ying.
Lu Sheng's slightly long hair was tied up, and he was dressed in all white—a white T-shirt, casual trousers, and white sneakers—with a candy stick in his mouth, exuding a youthful vibe.
If my good friend Qiao Song saw this, he would comment that my outfit was like "an old cucumber painted green."
He stood on the deck, looking as relaxed as a young master inspecting the company's operations.
Lu Sheng glanced at the faint firelight a few more times, casually activating his supernatural power, but his expression changed slightly:
"Um?"
A burning sensation landed on his palm. Lu Sheng suddenly looked down, opened his palm, and a pink circular mark appeared. The color was very light and the temperature was fleeting.
But Lu Sheng knew this was not a misperception.
He sensed Hua Chang Le!
He frowned slightly: "This distance... Luowei Port."
"Hua Changle, are you investigating that place?"
Lu Sheng chuckled softly, his five fingers tightening to grasp the mark, as if he were holding a person:
"I can't wait to see you again."
...
Liangwan Wharf.
Hua Changle and the other two were walking back.
"Something's happened! Someone come quick!"
People kept running towards the shore. One person hurried past the containers and, by sheer coincidence, turned his head and met Hua Changle's gaze.
"well?"
"Well……"
The air froze instantly, and the scene became quite awkward.
Hua Changle's head had already automatically started playing background music:
Whom did I meet around the corner?
The man's mouth gaped open, his questioning gaze locked on the object, and he raised his hand to point.
Hua Changle grinned and turned around without hesitation: "Run!"
"The person is right here!"
Almost simultaneously, the guy who had made eye contact with them pointed at the backs of the three men as they quickly moved away and shouted.
The sound attracted the attention of the port patrol team, who immediately followed the direction the man pointed.
The three of them weaved through the containers and buildings, running away from the port.
As Hua Changle ran, she thought about how she had inexplicably turned her head and looked at someone earlier, and she was speechless to herself: I really will thank you!
Does it really have to be a chase?
The three moved quickly, having already familiarized themselves with the route, and soon left Liangwan Wharf, arriving near Luowei Port where the hovercars were parked. The patrol team did not stop the pursuit; they covered this distance in no time.
Hua Changle shoved Jiang Xuan into the driver's seat: "Lead them away, Wei Liang, follow me."
"Where are you going, Miss? I need to protect you..."
Before Jiang Xuan could finish speaking, Hua Changle slammed the automatically shut-off switch on, gestured to Wei Liang, and then hid to the side.
In just a short while, the patrol team could already see the end of the line.
Helpless, Jiang Xuan deliberately lingered for a second to let them see everything before accelerating away.
"Where is he! Don't let him get away! Everyone get on the bus!"
The patrol team, driving new energy motorcycles with their warning lights on, gave chase with sirens blaring.
A convoy of cars roared past, and only after the air quieted down did Hua Changle and Wei Liang step out.
Hua Changle said to Wei Liang, "Let's go visit a little friend."
Wei Liang was puzzled but didn't ask any questions, and followed her.
As a result, Hua Changle took two steps and suddenly stopped. Wei Liang braked sharply, stopping so close that he had to take two steps back. Wei Liang, after all, had a fiancée!
"What's wrong?"
Hua Changle turned her head, raised her two hands, clenched them together and then opened them again: "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to visit a friend empty-handed?"
Wei Liang, who thought something unexpected had happened: "..."
"Uh, how about buying some fruit?" Wei Liang offered a simple and unpretentious suggestion.
Hua Changle looked worried: "Where can we buy it in the middle of the night in an unfamiliar place?"
The two of them looked ahead simultaneously—the highway, lit only by streetlights, seemed to dry the silence.
Finally, at a 24-hour unmanned supermarket, the two bought several boxes of preservative-packaged fruit. The fruit in these supermarkets wasn't fresh; it had been processed, making it seem less formal compared to fresh fruit, but… it was better than going empty-handed.
Wei Liang paid for the goods and walked out of the supermarket.
Hua Changle was behind him, and glanced at the surveillance camera before leaving.
422: [Don't worry, they've all been replaced. Unless someone is a national-level or higher expert who looks closely, they won't notice.]
"Reliable!" Hua Changle gave him a thumbs up.
Wei Liang stood outside waiting for her, his eyes filled with confusion: "Miss, where are you going?"
Hua Changle is sending a message: "Just come with me."
Joy: [Little Peach (knocking on the door.jpg)]
Peach: [I'm home, come over, uh...]
Le: [Is it inconvenient?]
Peach: [Qiu Quan's men are here. I'll send the people here away later; they need to cooperate.]
Le: [Yes]
The two soon arrived at a residential area.
This area, located at the border between the Jackal Gang and the Eagle Gang, is a development zone that only began to develop after the completion and operation of Luowei Port. Japan is also developing this area.
