Chapter 221, meet again

The voice of the person who came was not loud, but the bluffing woman froze suddenly, and looked back at the person who spoke hastily.

Except for Jiang Ran and his party, everyone present bowed down and saluted: "Huo Shuai."

Jiang Ran looked at the person who appeared silently in the shadow of the gate with the dim light.

The man seemed to be in poor health, with a thin figure, sitting in a wheelchair, with a black coat over his shoulders, and when the night wind blew, he would cover his lips with one hand and cough lowly.

Perhaps it was because of the sickness all over his body that made him look unaggressive. His slightly pale skin was like fine glass, which would shatter at the touch of a finger.

Contrary to his sickly demeanor, his eyes are very bright, the dark pupils seem to be shining with moonlight, and there are gentle ripples when he looks at them.

A modest gentleman, gentle as jade.

This was Jiang Ran's first impression of him.

but……

"Huo Shuai." Before the man could speak again, the woman who made things difficult for them just now pointed at Jiang Ran and said, "She refused to accept the inspection, and even threatened me that if she didn't let them in, she would force her way in!"

Jiang Ran rolled his eyes to express his disdain for the villainous behavior of the woman and the villain who complained first.

Hearing the subordinate's complaint, the man was not angry, but looked at Jiang Ran with soft eyes, as if puzzled: "Why didn't you accept the inspection?"

Jiang Ran didn't refute the woman's words, but looked at Si Xu for proof.

Si Xu nodded, confirming the identity of the man.

Huo Sichan.

The current head of the Huo family and the person in charge of Beichen Base.

Knowing the identity of the man, and contacting the discussion he heard just now, Jiang Ran had a plan in mind.

The girl took two steps, ignored the guarded posture of the people around her, looked directly at the head of the Huo family, and said loudly: "Our group did not refuse to check. You can check the monitoring to find out the truth. However, our trip is Purposeful."

The girl bowed slightly as a salute: "My name is Jiang Ran. This time, I accepted the request of Shen Shuai, the person in charge of Xiling Base, to come to Beichen Base for study and investigation."

"Xiling...cough cough." The man looked at the thin little girl in front of him in surprise, and when he spoke, he was choked by the night wind, and his words were interrupted by a cough.

"You were arranged by the Xiling Base to investigate? What evidence do you have to prove your identity?" The female supernatural being who made things difficult for them felt bad when she heard this—it's okay to make things difficult for ordinary people, but if this ordinary person still has The identity of the inspector of the Xiling base is a bit troublesome.

"Evidence?" Jiang Ran looked at Si Xu without thinking about it, "Professor Si, they want proof."

Si Xu sighed: "There is no evidence, but... now it can be proven."

What does it mean to prove now without evidence?Is this man playing with them!Thinking that the two were lying, the woman was ready to expose their words.

However, before she could speak, her body was pulled off the ground uncontrollably.

"Well?!"

Finding that she couldn't move her hands and feet, she looked around in a panic, and saw that except for the young man in the wheelchair, everyone else was fixed in the air by an invisible force just like her.

"Ahem!" Huo Sichan coughed, and finally caught his breath, "Space Department?" He showed a clear look, and said politely, "This must be Professor Si Xu."

He glanced at the subordinates under control, tightened his coat as if afraid of the cold, and said in a more polite tone: "These subordinates of mine are ignorant and rude to the guests, and I ask Professor Si not to be as knowledgeable as them."

Hearing this, Si Xu didn't bother, and released those people by dispelling the ability.

Jiang Ran said with a smile: "To be honest, we originally came back with Huo Lingyin's team, but in order not to cause trouble for Huo team, we temporarily separated from them - I knew we would meet such a team at the door." I should have listened to Team Huo's advice and went in with her."

She meant something, Huo Sichan looked at the woman whose face turned pale with fright, helplessly: "It's because they are ignorant, I will teach them well."

He bent over and greeted Jiang Ran: "Please don't blame Miss Jiang."

Every move, gentle and elegant, is incompatible with this dark world.

Jiang Ran pursed her lips, took a step back, and stood beside Si Xu.

This person is the person in charge of the Beichen base, the person in charge of the Huo family, and now, he is also probably a friend of Xie Chengzhi and Luo Rui...

As she was thinking, someone came out of the city gate, stopped behind Huo Sichan, and asked in a low voice: "What happened?"

this voice...

Jiang Ran smiled.

Yo, acquaintances, we meet again.

"A few friends here...a little misunderstanding happened." Huo Sichan covered his lips and coughed, and said warmly, "It's late at night, Professor Si, Ms. Jiang, why don't we go into the city, and I will arrange for someone to handle the matter here. "

Professor Si?Miss Jiang?
Xie Chengzhi froze, raised his eyes and looked outside the city gate.

Under the bright moonlight, two familiar figures stood side by side, a young man and a beautiful woman, an incomparable match.

The girl was also looking in his direction, her eyes met each other, and the smile in her eyes was even stronger.

Unaware of Xie Chengzhi's helplessness, Huo Sichan said: "Chengzhi, you and Ms. Luo are also from the Xiling base, do you know if you are familiar with Professor Si?"

Xie Chengzhi's lips moved, not knowing how to answer this question.

Si Xu's voice was cold: "I'm not familiar with you."

He led Jiang Ran forward two steps, and nodded to Huo Sichan: "As Huo Shuai said, it's getting late, I need to arrange these friends first, and I will definitely visit the door tomorrow."

"Are these friends?" Huo Sichan asked Xie Chengzhi, looking at the old, weak, sick and disabled not far away, "Chengzhi, Professor Si is a guest, and those friends who came with him, can I trouble you to help arrange them? "

Xie Chengzhi was about to find an excuse to leave, when he heard this, he nodded: "Of course."

"No need." Jiang Ran politely refused, "I can settle them down, so I won't bother Huo Shuai."

After a pause, she looked at the female superhuman just now and smiled: "Excuse me, do you need to check again?"

The supernatural person shook his head sharply: "No, no need."

Jiang Ran looked back at Luo Yuting: "Get in the car, let's go to the city."

After a pause, she hesitated, and asked Huo Sichan: "Do you want me to give you a ride?"

The girl's tone was serious, not a joke, Huo Sichan laughed: "No, thank you Miss Jiang for your concern."

Si Xu glanced at his blanket-covered legs, and led Jiang Ran into the car into the city.

When the car passed the city gate and passed the young man, Jiang Ran waved to him from the window as farewell.

The young man nodded with a smile, and coughed lightly again.

Hearing the coughing sound scattered in the wind, Si Xu glanced at the car window: "Huo Sichan... is a powerful character that should not be underestimated."

Si Xu's impression of Huo Sichan stayed at the time of the Huo family's accident in the early days of the end of the world - because of Huo Zhiqiang, he paid more attention to the Huo family.

"At that time, the old Huo Shuai was assassinated, and Huo Sichan was a sick child. All forces in the Beichen base were watching. Unexpectedly, this sick and weak Patriarch of the Huo family forcibly dragged his sick body to arrange all kinds of work in the Beichen base in an orderly manner."

Among the crowd of wolves, tigers and leopards, one can imagine what twists and turns he had experienced at that time.

It's rare to hear Si Xu praise others, although it doesn't sound like a compliment.

Jiang Ran's smiling eyes were bent, fearless: "Well, it's a human or a ghost, you'll know at the meeting tomorrow."
