Chapter 973 Return to Bei'an (first update)

After dealing with the short man effortlessly, Xia Qi's figure that had disappeared from the office building appeared in the next moment at a crossroads about a few hundred meters away from the office building.

There were not many pedestrians or cars on the road. Xia Qi took out a cigarette from his pocket, then put it in his mouth and lit it with a lighter skillfully.

Taking a deep breath and exhaling a long puff of smoke, Xia Qi not only did not feel that the depression in his heart was relieved, but instead felt that the smell of tobacco today was even more bitter than before.

This bitterness is not because he lost those four Rebel Alliance minions in the same cruel way, but because he simply feels that something like this, which should have nothing to do with him, will continue for a long time in the future. I'm afraid they will find him again.

The people of the Rebel Alliance do not regard ordinary people in the many realities below the second domain as human beings.

And judging from what they said, the people in the three major underworlds were no better than them.

Perhaps, this is originally a problem of mankind itself. Once it gains power, it will be followed by political disputes.

And based on the current situation in the Second Domain, it seems that he has only one option, which is to seek asylum from the Rebel Alliance and join them.

After all, the three major underworlds have completely broken up with all ghost substance owners. Even if he wants to surrender, he may not be able to get any kind treatment.

"Just take it one step at a time. It's best to be on your own. If you can't do it anymore, let's talk about it."

Xia Qi still hopes that they will not be involved in the disputes between the forces in the second domain. It is not that he is afraid of trouble, but that he, Leng Yue, and Chu Mengqi will inevitably experience separation once they have to choose sides. the result of.

After all, one of them has a ghost substance and the other is a spell owner. As for Chu Mengqi, there is no big problem in joining either side, but she will obviously become constrained in the use of her abilities.

A cigarette burned out quickly, half of it was sucked into Xia Qi's lungs, and the other half was consumed by the surrounding wind.

At the intersection, both cars and pedestrians were walking towards the path they chose with clear goals. No one noticed the appearance of Xia Qi or his disappearance after a brief confusion.

Bei'an City, a deserted parking area.

Xia Qi stood in the shadow formed by the office building in the distance, looking in the direction that originally belonged to his home. There was no expression on his face, he just stood there full of indifference.

The ghost building that shocked Quan Bei'an before has completely disappeared, and the place has once again returned to what people usually know.

Although no one dared to walk on this road or park their car here for a long time, time always calmed down all the disturbances.

Gradually, the hauntings here became the purest rumors.

There are people who believe it, but there are even more people who don’t believe it.

To others, this place is insignificant, but to Xia Qi, this place is his home, his roots, and the source of all his beautiful memories.

But now, his grandfather is missing, his mother is sealed, and his father refuses to contact him. He himself is in an uneasy panic because of the ghost baby girl in his body and the trapped dark man.

He took out his cell phone and dialed his father again, but the other end of the phone was still turned off.

He has lost count of how many calls he has made to his father since returning to reality. Every time, he shuts down, shuts down, shuts down!

In addition to being worried about his father, he is also squeezing a lot of resentment in his heart now, because everyone has kept it from him. Everyone knows that he is the only one who is kept in the dark and is looking for the truth like a fool. .

He is not an ignorant child now, what else is unacceptable?

So he was really angry many times, and planned to make a fuss like he did when he was a child after finding his grandfather, and vent out all the depression in his heart.

The call couldn't be reached, and Xia Tian Qi had no intention of calling again. After taking another look at the empty area, he disappeared again and went elsewhere.

Throughout the night, Xia Qi kept reviewing the places he had been and some people who were gradually forgotten in his memory.

He went to see Cao Jinhai, and of course he also saw Dong Xue, but it was just a glance. They didn't realize that he had been there before, and it was as if they would hardly think of him again in the future.

A week later, the annual meeting of Hades was held.

The venue for the annual meeting is still Anran Street, where the last annual meeting was held.

After becoming the leader of Hades, Xia Qi knew that the place where the annual meeting of Hades would be held would be revealed every three days before the meeting, as long as the staff of Hades could see it and enter it.

Ordinary people cannot see it.

From the first three days before the annual meeting to the last three days after the annual meeting, Anran Street will not disappear.

Under normal circumstances, the annual meeting is held by the three major power holders, who mutually select the outstanding talents recommended by each, and then select some to receive rewards.

In turn, some people from the management level will be selected for punishment.

The information of every employee is in the large system of Hades, so for those in power, there are no secrets about the background and growth trajectory of employees.

When you joined the company, how many incidents you have experienced, and what your current position is, there will be a more detailed evaluation.

Because of the presence of Wang Sangyu's agent, Xia Qi did not interfere with the preparations for the Hades Annual Meeting at all.

Since returning to Fuping City, he has been staying in his bedroom to adjust his mentality.

Since Leng Yue returned to reality, she had gone missing with them. She would not reply to messages or answer calls. Finally, Chu Mengqi contacted Leng Yue. Only then did she know that Leng Yue had gone back to the Taoist Temple and was not there for the time being. The intention of coming back was to ask them to find him again when they decided to go to the second domain.

Zhao Jingshu did not return from Zhao Huifeng until two days ago, but she only stayed for one night and participated in the incident the next day.

This also made Chu Mengqi spit, knocking on Xia Qi's door every day and shouting that he was bored.

It wasn't until Xia Qi scared him twice that the villa truly became quiet.

"It's so annoying. Everyone is busy and ignores me!"

Chu Mengqi was exhausted after Xia Qi's place, so she came downstairs angrily, took a box of yogurt from the refrigerator in the kitchen, sat down on the sofa and drank it.

At this moment, Wang Sangyu and Zhao Anguo suddenly walked in from outside, and happened to hear her slightly resentful muttering.

The two of them couldn't help laughing after hearing this, but they didn't say anything. They pretended not to hear and asked Chu Mengqi:

"Is Director Xia upstairs?"

"He is here, but I don't know if he fell asleep or not."

"Senior, how could he sleep to death if he is so awesome? If it were Tao Jinshan, it would be possible."

After hearing this, Zhao Anguo habitually insulted Tao Jinshan.

"Can you please stop taking him with you for everything!"

Wang Sangyu glared at Zhao Anguo. After all, Tao Jinshan was still her cousin no matter what, so naturally she couldn't bear to hear that Zhao Anguo was always slandering him.

"Just a joke."

Zhao Anguo smiled. Wang Sangyu ignored him and went directly upstairs to knock on the bedroom where Xia Qi lived.
