Traveling Frog: Burning Fruit at the Start

A car drove forward along a winding road. After passing through a forest, a manor appeared in front of it.

At this time, two rows of servants were standing at the door of the manor, waiting for their guests.

The car finally stopped at the entrance of the manor. A middle-aged man who looked like a butler hurried forward and opened the back seat door. Dean Baggio and Liu Xiang walked out of the car.

Seeing that she had arrived at the manor she had just escaped from, Liu Xia couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"Dean Baggio, Mr. Liu Xia, welcome to Luke Manor. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me."

With that said, the butler led the team, leaving him and Dean Banqiao to slowly walk into the manor.

In order to pretend that it was his first time here, Liu Xia deliberately pretended to be curious and looked around.

Dean Baggio on the side had a calm expression, as if there was nothing of interest to him here.

Soon the two arrived in front of the villa. Outside the door, the butler Mike was already standing there to greet them with a smile.

"Dean Baggio, good morning, Mr. Liu Xia. The master is already in the reception room. Please follow me."

Looking at Mike with a calm face, Liu Xia had to admire his calmness.

Because the moment the two of them looked at each other just now, Liu Xia caught a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

You know, a few days ago, I beat him up and made him embarrassed.

But now he can still greet you with a smile, and you can't detect anything strange in his eyes.

But Liu Xia knows that the more such a person is, the more difficult it is to deal with. There's a good chance they'll backstab you when you least expect it.

Therefore, he was also more vigilant about the next meeting.

The two walked through the corridor and came to the reception hall. Luke Sean, the patriarch of the Rock family, was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed to relax.

Hearing the footsteps of the two people entering the door, he opened his eyes slightly, stood up immediately and walked towards them quickly, his voice full of friendliness.

"Welcome, welcome, Mr. Liu Xia, the dean of Baggio, is welcome to come and meet me at my manor."

"It's really a blessing to be able to invite you two to my house."

Although Dean Baggio is the dean of the Superman Academy, he has no airs in front of Luke Shawn. Liu Xia guessed that this was most likely for the sake of the Luke family.

"Is this Mr. Liu Xia of the night watchman? Sure enough, heroes come from young!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Xia quickly returned the favor and even said she didn't dare.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Luke Sean finally brought the topic to the point.

"Mr. Liu Xia, you must have visited our genetic laboratory, right?"

Although he didn't know why Luke Shawn asked, Liu still nodded and admitted that he had visited.

Then Luke Sean continued: "Although Mr. Liu Xia only has C-level strength, judging from the combat power you have displayed, you are definitely the pinnacle of S-level."

"So I have a humble request. I hope to get some of Mr. Liu Xia's hair so that we can study the unusual power in your body."

"Of course, we also have some thoughts about this request from Mr. Liu."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands. Butler Mike came in from the door, holding a box in his hand.

A gentleman walked up to the three of them and opened the box. Inside was a small bag.

"This is a void bag with five hundred intermediate spirit stones in it as a reward for Mr. Liu Xia."

Liu Xia was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect that her hair could be worth 500 intermediate spiritual stones.

However, he doesn't want his genes to be used by others. Then he found an excuse to reject Luke Sean's request.

Faced with Liu Xia's rejection, the other party did not seem angry, but still smiled.

As the head of the family, Luke Sean is very skilled in communication. After seeing that this topic could no longer go on, he changed the conversation to other aspects.

Under his intentional guidance, the three of them chatted in a very pleasant atmosphere, as if they were old friends they hadn't seen for many years, without any barriers.

Originally, Luke Shawn wanted to invite the two of them to have lunch, but because the monitor and dean were temporarily busy, he could only refuse Luke Shawn's invitation.

Before leaving, he suddenly pointed to a blank spot on the wall, "There was a good scroll hanging here originally, but I don't know who took it away a few days ago, otherwise I would have given it to Liu Xia." As a souvenir, sir.”

Hearing this, Liu Xia's pupils suddenly shrank and her heart tightened.

This subtle change of his was directly seen by Luke Shawn.

Luke Sean looked at Liu Xia with a meaningful look. Although his tone was filled with emotion, there was a hint of smile in his eyes.

Seen through!

Liu Xia was very sure that Luke Shawn guessed that he was the one who stole the painting.

He pretended to be calm and left with Dean Baggio. Just when he was about to get in the car, the housekeeper thrust a note into his hand.

Liu Xia secretly opened the note while avoiding Dean Baggio's gaze, and found that it read, "Meet you at the manor at six o'clock in the afternoon."

He was a little confused whether to go or not.

After returning to the college to say goodbye to Dean Baggio, Liu Xia immediately contacted Meng Shanhai.

He told her everything about him and Luke Shawn, and hoped that Meng Shanhai could give him some advice.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment before he answered.

"Don't be anxious about this matter. I need to discuss it with the leader and wait for my reply."

After saying that, the call was hung up directly.

Knowing that Liu Xia would not be able to make a decision for a while, he could only put things aside for a while.

While waiting, Liu Xia decided to go see Jiang Ting. After all, he was about to leave, so he asked her to prepare in advance.

After dialing the other party's number, Jiang Ting happened to be at home, and Liu Xia planned to go there.

Following the address given by Jiang Ting, she quickly arrived downstairs.

At this time, he found a group of people gathered downstairs, muttering and seeming to be discussing something.

When he got closer, he roughly guessed what they were talking about based on the bits of information he heard.

It was said that a group of people had kidnapped a girl in the building just now, and the people who came were all awakened people.

Hearing this, Liu Xia's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He quickly rushed upstairs and came to Jiang Ting's residence.

At this time, the door of the house was open, and there was a chaos inside. It looked like a fight had just occurred.

He was still a step late, and it seemed that the Luke family had figured him out.

According to the current situation, if Liu Xia does not go to Luke Manor tonight, Jiang Ting will most likely become a cold corpse after tonight.

In front of the awakened ones, the lives of ordinary people are like ants.

At this time, Meng Shanhai also called. After discussion between him and the leader, it was finally decided that Liu Xia should not take risks alone.

Now that the mission has been completed, it would be best to return to China as soon as possible.

After listening to Meng Shanhai's explanation, Liu Xia just replied lightly.

"Minister, I decided to go to the appointment tonight!"
