After sending away Tang Jiang and his gang, I dialed Grandma Su’s number again.

However, the phone call didn’t connect and I only heard, ‘The other party has turned off the phone.’ I wonder if it was because Grandma Su didn’t charge it in time and it automatically shut down.

If I couldn’t get in contact with Grandma Su, then deciding what to do with Su Qiao tonight becomes a problem.

I don’t know where Grandma Su was staying right now, so I couldn’t just go bring her granddaughter back to her. In this situation, I couldn’t really go home either. Would I have to spend the night with Su Qiao in a nearby hotel?

Not to mention, there were quite a lot of hotels near the Da Ning River. After all, Dong Shan City’s municipal government had plans to develop tourism and turn Dong Shan City into a tourist city. Thus Da Ning River and Dong Shan Lake became one of the sightseeing spot they used to deceive outsiders and even foreigners to come. After visiting Film City, tourists would come to visit the Da Ning River and Dong Shan Lake. It turned out that there was nothing to see at the river and lake, but only a few willow trees on the shore and a lot of mosquitoes.

Regardless of whether it’s a scam or not, you’ll have to settle with what you have. Since the ‘Da Ning River Sunset’ was officially promoted as one of the ten scenic spots in Dong Shan, then you would have to come see it at sunset. When tourists finally come, they find that it’s not as beautiful as the rumors. They would also have to find a place to stay, which in turn caused a boom in the number of hotels nearby. While the hotel owners thanked the government for its good policies, they also irresponsibly told tourists: Tian Wang Temple and Jian Ren Temple in Dong Shan City have a long history. Although it is not among the ten scenic spots in Dong Shan, it would be a pity to not go there.

Apparently the reason why hotel owners tried their best to attract tourists to Tian Wang Temple and Jian Ren Temple was because there were entrance fees to enter those two places, and the Daoists and monks gave the hotel owners kickbacks…

Since there were a lot of these small hotels along the Da Ning River, they didn’t really question me when I used Wu Sheng’s ID and checked into a hotel with Su Qiao. Perhaps in the eyes of the hotel owner, Su Qiao and I looked like high school students, and Su Qiao’s qipao might be a personal hobby, or she and her boyfriend just came back from a cosplay even and really wanted to check into a room together.

That’s probably why the owner looked at me with contempt for my sanctimonious behavior of booking a standard room with two beds instead of a room with one large bed.

I had to wear a blindfold twice on Kamakura’s jeep, so my eyes were squeezed a lot and my gaze wasn’t as sharp as usual. It kind of looked like I didn’t get enough sleep and I wasn’t as threatening anymore, even the bald hotel owner had the guts to look at me with contempt.

Of course Su Qiao took off her eye patch before entering the hotel, but she wore it longer than me and she needs to gradually adapt to the bright light. She can only open her eyes a tiny bit to barely allow some light in to see in front of her.

After receiving the ‘door’ card, we took the elevator to the room on the second floor. I glanced around the room and it was pretty good. Although it wasn’t comparable to Ai Mi’s VIP building, at least it was very clean. There was a TV across from the beds and there was a shower room for taking a bath.

I don’t know what Ai ShuQiao was thinking. After Su Qiao was released, she not only wore a qipao, but also a pair of high heels, which made it very inconvenient for her to move around.

However, Su Qiao, who was wearing high heels and already very tired, didn’t sit down to rest immediately after entering the room. Instead, she hung her hands in front of her and lowered her eyes, as if waiting for someone to give her orders.

Really? Were you too afraid to sit without Marianne’s permission in the last two months of training? You don’t have to do this in front of me, it’s not like I’ll beat you with a whip.

“Su Qiao, please sit down and rest. I’m going to try to call your grandma again.”

On the way here, I told Su Qiao that Grandma Su came to Dong Shan City to find her granddaughter. On the one hand, Su Qiao was excited by the arrival of her relative, and on the other hand, she was a little bit scared. It seems that Grandma Su was a very strict person in her hometown.

Su Qiao sat down on the bed near the bathroom to rest once she received my permission. She still couldn’t believe that she had been freed so easily, and emotions of exhaustion, grievance, and joy appeared on her face at the same time. She was unable to control her emotions, and she finally burst into tears.

“Sorry, I disturbed your call. I’ll go to the bathroom.” After crying for a while, Su Qiao wiped her tears, stood up from the bed, and put on a pair of slippers provided by the hotel.

The second call I made to Grandma Su failed to connect. It seemed that I won’t be able to get in touch with Grandma Su tonight no matter what.

If I couldn’t hand Su Qiao over to Grandma Su, then I had to take care of her temporarily.

The main reason was because Su Qiao’s mental state was unstable and she needed someone to accompany her. Secondly, I also needed to prevent Ai ShuQiao from sending someone to take Su Qiao back again.

It wasn’t impossible. There used to be a contractor in Dong Shan City who paid workers wages during the day and sent people to snatch them back at night. If Su Qiao was kidnapped by Ai ShuQiao when I was careless, Ai ShuQiao would not admit that Su Qiao was in her hands.

In any case, let’s get through the night first. We should be able to contact Grandma Su tomorrow.

Su Qiao spent a while in the bathroom. I had nothing to do outside, so I turned on my phone and started looking at the photos I took in room 013 of the Doomsday Bunker. I wanted to know if I could find any clues from them so that I could confirm the location of the base.

It turned out that one of the photos shocked me.

After enlarging this photo, I saw a face that I knew and loathed in the reflection from the glass pane on the bookshelf.

This scrawny guy with a narrow face like a stick insect was Tie Xian, a gangster leader from the east district. He once broke Brother Gang’s hand tendons and was almost beaten to death by me with Yin Yang Sanshou. Afterwards, Ai ShuQiao’s people carried him away and handed him over to Dr. Yu for resuscitation. Later, after he was out of danger, even Dr. Yu didn’t know where he went.

So he was actually hiding in the doomsday bunker? His face was reflected in the glass of the bookshelf, which meant that he was peeking at me through a observation hole on the wall behind me. The hole seemed to be relatively high and relatively hidden. I didn’t see it at all when I checked the room…

Compared to the hateful look on his face when he looked at me, I paid more attention to the metallic reflection on his chin.

What are those? The three pieces of silver metal that fit into his chin like a Terminator. Could it be the titanium alloy reinforcement components that Dr. Yu added when he rescued Tie Xian? Even if his mandible was broken, fix it with ordinary metal. If you give this guy a super powered mouth, then wouldn’t something bad happen to me if he bites me when he seeks revenge?

I suddenly thought of the man who dragged the dying Tie Xian away from the street and warned Tie Xian’s friends (Long Qi, Xia Qiu) and others (such as Huang San’s father, Boss Huang) to keep it secret. He might have been the disfigured Kamakura.

In other words, the doomsday bunker purchased by Ai ShuQiao in the suburbs of Dong Shan City had been in operation for a long time, and the location of it was even kept a secret from Dr. Yu. Dr. Yu may have been blindfolded when he went to treat Tie Xian.

So that means the people who really represent Ai ShuQiao in Dong Shan City are Kamakura and others? Dr. Yu’s careless character, who could be easily bribed by others, definitely won’t be truly trusted by Ai ShuQiao. Ah, but since Kamakura has become my bodyguard, he wouldn’t be the manager of the doomsday bunker, nor can he be the leader of Ai ShuQiao’s gang in Dong Shan City. Who’s the leader of the doomsday bunker, would Su Qiao know?

At this moment, Su Qiao had completely washed away the tears on her face and came out of the bathroom.
