The end of the world starts with failing the exam

Chapter 247 Ominous Moonlight

"Aunt Hong is not going there?"

"Well, I already called her and told her that I have other things to attend to, so I won't go there yet."

"It's okay if you don't go. Her son is very naughty. It's a waste of time for you to tutor him. I heard that he even beat up the class teacher a few days ago..."

"Actually, that kid is quite polite. Maybe there was a misunderstanding."

While chatting with the old man, Chen Jing picked up a towel and wiped his face, then washed it with slightly cold and biting water and hung it on the shelf next to the bathroom cabinet.

Twenty minutes left.

The car sent by the [Round Table Council] is about to arrive.

After coming out of the underground garage and having a simple breakfast, Chen Jing has been waiting at home.

This time they not only had to take Yan Que and Wei Nan with them to the parish, but even Lawrence was brought with them.

And this is not Chen Jing's request.

It was Chen Boxu who proposed it on his own initiative.

"Bring that old guy with you." When Chen Boxu said this, his expression was a little complicated, "He should be able to help us a little at the critical moment."

Listen to what the old man says.

There seems to be a place where Lawrence can be used.

But don't know why.

Chen Jing always felt that the old man had not slept all night... and seemed to have made him a little pessimistic.

Although Chen Bofu didn't say much, Chen Jing could still feel that in his eyes, [Moonlight Hermitage] was no longer as controllable as before.

After the two Light Bearers awakened, they were joined by Ghero who was approaching the surface...

Maybe the old man has realized something.

Not only did I feel more vigilant, but I also felt a little bit pessimistic.

Yes.

Just like the good grandson said.

If you can't beat him, just run.

As for Lawrence…

If it were in the past, Chen Bofu would definitely not care about his life or death.

But after this period of getting along, the old man's mentality seemed to have changed to some extent, and perhaps Chen Jing's influence was also involved.

"Are you afraid that if we leave here, someone will come and raid our lair?"

"No one dares."

"Then grandpa, why did you bring Lawrence with you?"

"When in danger, he can help me protect you."

"...good reason."

"You can also take him with you when you're running away."

"Ok?"

"If we really force those monks to leave their hometown, we'd better take that old guy with us, otherwise when the Queen of Autumn settles the accounts... he won't be able to escape from Eternal Night City."

Chen Bofu put down the towel in his hand and looked at his tired self in the mirror, feeling indescribably uneasy in his heart.

I haven't felt this way for many years.

"After all, we are all neighbors in the same community. We are destined to be together like this, so there is no need to leave him behind." Chen Bofu hung the navy blue short-velvet towel on the shelf next to Chen Jing face towel.

Hearing the old man's words, Chen Jing couldn't help but smile, because he could feel the changes in the old man...

"I'm going to the balcony to smoke a cigarette. Tell Wei Nan and the others to move quickly and don't let those trash guys from the parliament wait for us later."

"understood."

While Chen Jing and the others went home to wash up, Wei Nan and Yan Que also went back upstairs to tidy up and change into clean clothes.

Although the clothes they were wearing were not dirty, after all, they were going to represent the "Sunset Red Community" to participate in the moonlight celebration of the hermitage. It was impossible not to take it seriously...

"Can you hurry up?" Wei Nan stood outside the bathroom with his hands folded, looking at Yan Que who was combing his hair, with an impatient expression on his face, "I even came to your house to hurry you up, be more conscious!"

"The time hasn't come yet." Yanque replied expressionlessly, and couldn't help complaining about how annoying he was.

If I had known better, I wouldn't have opened the door to this crazy woman!

Wei Nan is still the same, her dressing style is more neutral, and it can even be said that she is inexplicably similar to Chen Jing.

Wearing a simple hooded sweatshirt and a pair of jeans, his long hair tied behind his head swayed from side to side, looking impatient.

Waited for almost five minutes.

Yanque came out of the bathroom.

Wei Nan felt that she looked the same when she came out.

"Let's go quickly, we'll be in trouble if the old man comes to urge us."

"I know."

As soon as they went out, they saw Chen Jing coming out of the elevator. They looked at each other for a while. Chen Jing hurried back to the elevator and pressed the button to open the door.

"Hurry up! The old man is urging you!"

"!!!"

Hearing this, Yan Que dodged into the elevator in an instant. Wei Nan ran as fast as he could and was still complaining when the elevator door closed.

"Aren't you in a hurry? I see how you can run faster than me..."

It turns out.

The old man's intimidation is still very terrifying.

Until everyone gathered downstairs, Yan Que and Wei Nan still looked like good babies, with nervous expressions and even dared not breathe.

Ryan and Lawrence followed Chen Boxu downstairs.

Perhaps it was because Ryan no longer looked like the skeletal kid he once was, and looked much more pleasing to the eye. Chen Bofu dug out a few new clothes in the closet that Chen Jing had not worn when he was a child and gave them to him.

After being dressed up like this, his already delicate and cute appearance looked like a young master from a wealthy family.

As for Lawrence... He rarely took off his property management uniform and changed into casual clothes. He seemed to have taken into account that he was going to attend the moonlight celebration this time. He even hid the weird holes on his face, looking like an ordinary white old man. .

The old man pinched it and clicked it down.

As soon as I walked to the community square, a strange-looking car drove over from the intersection.

The car looked like an elongated and taller version of a Rolls-Royce. It was equipped with black armor with the [Round Table Council] LOGO on the front, rear and left sides. It parked directly outside the gate of the community.

There was only one driver in the car.

Still a familiar face.

"Uncle Pigherd?"

"Ouch! Jingjing!"

The swineherd who was driving was almost sunk in the enlarged and widened car seat, and it was difficult to turn around and say hello to everyone.

When he saw the old man getting into the car, his expression suddenly became nervous, and he even held his breath uncontrollably.

"Old... old man..."

"What are you afraid of?" Chen Boxu was not in a good mood. When he saw the pigherder acting like he was about to die as soon as he got into the car, he suddenly became angry. "You are so embarrassed when you see me, right?"

"No, no, no, I don't dare!! I'm just a little nervous!!" The pigherder's humble attitude made the old man calm down a little. There was undisguised fear in every word, "It's rare to see a big shot like you... I'm really nervous!! !!!”

"Where are Randolph and the others?" Chen Bofu sat on the couch at the back of the car and asked with his legs crossed, "Then the old guy didn't say you were coming to pick me up?"

"Congressman Randolph's physical condition..." the pigherder hesitated, then said, "I'm afraid they will leave later... we just go first..."

Chen Bofu hummed and sat on the sofa without saying a word.

Soon, the car started.

Speeding straight towards Moonlight Parish.

Except for people like Wei Nan who go out without thinking and are curious about everything, everyone else in the car, including the old man, seemed a little silent.

Chen Jing and Chen Boxu were worried about the He Guangzhe incident, so their expressions were not very good. The pigherd driving the car was because the old madman in the back seat was so scary that he didn't even dare to breathe. .

When Ryan saw that the young master and the master were both silent, he could only sit aside in a daze.

Only Lawrence looked at everyone in confusion, not sure what the old madman wanted to do when he took him out...

As for Yanque.

She was pure nervousness.

After all, she was a suicidal bird who defected from the monastery. This time she returned to her "hometown" to attend the celebration, and there was always a sense of danger that she was about to step into a dragon's pit and a tiger's den.

"There's something wrong with the moonlight today."

Chen Bofu leaned against the car window and kept staring at Gheluo hanging in the sky. There was an increasingly vigilant look in his cloudy eyes.

Hear the words.

Chen Jing tilted his head and looked up from the car window.

"There's something wrong, it seems to be getting brighter and brighter..."

"It's not getting brighter."

Chen Bofu frowned, slowly lowered his head and looked at his withered hands, feeling inexplicably powerless...

This is not a good sign.

"It's getting closer to us."
