But he was here to eat with Bai Shi and the others, so there was no need for him to deliberately avoid these two people. Or to be more precise, why should he avoid them?

So, the things that happened afterwards happened.

Seeing this, Bai Shi, who had just paid the bill, followed behind.

Zhang Lei and Yang Haotian also breathed a sigh of relief, then hurriedly followed outside with bottles of mineral water in their hands.

As for the two girls, they went to the toilet together to avoid the embarrassment of not being able to find a service area on the highway for a while.

…………

In this quiet little county town, the afternoon time flows slowly.

There were few pedestrians on the street, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

At this moment, at the entrance of the hotel, Zhang Lei and Yang Haotian moved quickly and carefully.

There were beads of sweat on their foreheads.

There were only two boxes of mineral water to move, so the sweating was not due to tiredness or heat, but purely due to nervousness.

The two of them worked together to place the two boxes of mineral water safely into the trunk of the magnificent Cadillac. Every gentle movement revealed their deep awe.

From time to time, Zhang Lei glanced at the shadows not far away with the corner of his eye, as if to confirm whether the person who made them feel afraid was watching all this.

Although it was just a simple moving job and they were only moving two boxes of mineral water, they treated each bottle of water as if it were a precious item.

This excessive caution is obviously due to the fear of any mishap.

After completing the task, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, wiped the sweat off their faces with their sleeves, and exchanged a knowing look with each other.

Then they stood quietly by, waiting for possible next instructions.

There was a sudden tension and anticipation in the air.

After Chen Yun nodded calmly.

The two men felt relieved and fled away.

I didn't dare look back again.

This scene also made Bai Shi a little confused.

He even suffered from paranoia and had the urge to test whether the water was poisonous.

However, since he and Chen Yun were alone now, he didn't have time to think about the mineral water and the two men.

He has more important things to do now.

Looking at Chen Yun, the expression on Bai Shi's face looked extremely complicated.

Countless images flashed through his mind.

From Chen Yun being able to learn everything quickly, to Chen Yun being able to control a flying sword and take people’s lives from thousands of miles away.

These anomalies and extraordinary things made Bai Shi have countless questions at this moment.

But he hesitated for a long time.

He only slowly opened his mouth and asked a simple question: "Brother Yun, is this world actually much more complicated than I know?"

Bai Shi's voice sounded somewhat nervous, and his gaze towards Chen Yun was also very complicated.

He thought a lot.

Have you ever thought about currying favor with someone?

Have you ever thought about getting closer to him?

But in the end, after thousands of words, only this question remained.

Because Bai Shi, who has been in the criminal world for so many years, deeply understands that in the end the only person he can rely on is himself.

He will not actively rely on others.

He just wanted an answer, just wanted to know whether he had never really understood this complicated world.

To ask this question in person.

Bai Shi waited for a long time.

He even postponed his plan to go abroad to take revenge on Shadow Blade and the Golden Triangle drug lord.

After hearing this, Chen Yun remained silent for a while.

Then he slowly and seriously said to Bai Shi: "As far as I know... this world should be as simple as you know."

This is the truth.

Ever since Chen Yun's body began to dormant and evolve, he has actually been quietly looking for other abnormalities.

But that's the fact.

Up to now, he has used his mental power to look at too many people in Shu City, Mo City, Qixi City, Lavager and other places, but he has not found a guy who might be abnormal.

Or the hidden anomaly is much more powerful than his, so he is unaware of it even if he encounters it.

Or there is a high probability that there is no abnormality in this world except him.

Chen Yun was not sure which one it was.

However, the first phase of his solo global travel plan after the May Day holiday actually has the purpose of looking for other anomalies.

Therefore, we uphold a rigorous scientific attitude.

Chen Yun did not say everything he said, and used "as far as I know" as his answer.

And as he said these words.

Bai Shi also became quiet.

The sunlight after noon shone on the stone road outside the restaurant, casting a layer of dazzling golden glow on the bustling crowd.

The lunch rush had just passed, but there was still a constant stream of people at the restaurant entrance.

The diners were either in groups of two or three, discussing their recent dining experience with great interest; or they were alone, with a satisfied smile on their faces.

The waiters were busy shuttling back and forth, politely seeing off the guests, and the air was filled with a warm scent mixed with the lingering aroma of various delicacies.

But in this seemingly bustling scene, Shiraishi seemed to be in a bubble of silence.

His eyes passed through the crowd of people in front of him and stared into the distance that only he could see.

The noise around - the laughter, the farewells, and even the occasional sound of traffic in the distance - all seemed to be turned down in volume, becoming insignificant whispers in the background.

Chen Yun's words were like a stone thrown into the calm lake of his heart, causing ripples one after another.

Bai Shi's thoughts were deeply immersed in it, and he repeatedly chewed on the meaning behind each word.

As simple as he knew?

Was he saying that the world was not as complicated as he had guessed? Chen Yun was the only one who was extraordinary and special.

Or will he never see the true complexity of the world? No need to worry about everything he will never come into contact with again?

In this state of mind, even though it was the busiest time of the day at noon, Bai Shi felt an unusual tranquility.

This tranquility does not come from the outside world, but from deep concentration and contemplation in one's heart.

The hustle and bustle around him seemed to be some distant background music, unable to disturb the intense yet subtle thinking deep in his heart.

A long time passed.

Bai Shi looked at Chen Yun who was looking at him with a smile.

He simply put aside all the random thoughts in his mind and changed the subject, saying, "After the May Day holiday, I will go abroad to deal with the follow-up of the attack. It will probably take a long time."

There was no other meaning to Bai Shi's words.

To be precise, I didn't mean to ask for help.

He knew that everyone's status was no longer equal.

Even though Chen Yun still acted as if he was a friend, he no longer expected Chen Yun to lend a helping hand again.

Helping is a matter of affection, not helping is a duty.

I was lucky to have survived last time.

He is not some shameless person who is offensive.

Therefore, when he said this at this moment, he actually wanted to express more of a farewell emotion.

Because of this trip, although he has a good chance of dealing with the killer organization and the drug lord, these two guys are no small trouble.

Even if nothing goes wrong, everything will go smoothly.

At least it will take a long time.

So farewell is still necessary.

In response, Chen Yun looked up at the sky for a moment.

Then he lowered his head and said with a hint of hint: "The Gundam in my home in Mingwang New Village has been left for a long time and no one has taken care of it. If you are going on a long trip, you can take it with you and help me take care of it."

His words seemed to be asking Bai Shi for help.

But in fact, he had some hidden intention of protecting Bai Shi.

After all, he is actually happy to lend a helping hand to his friends.

It doesn't take much effort anyway.

I just want to take this into consideration.

We must think about the fact that the flying sword can be controlled and then think about the fact that the rosewood Gundam statue is likely to be controlled as well.

If Bai Shi could think of this.

Naturally, I understood the meaning of asking him to take the Gundam statue with him when he went abroad.

And now I heard these words.

Bai Shi, who vaguely felt that he might understand Chen Yun's meaning, was still thinking about the deeper meaning of this sentence.

It just so happened that Sun Huiwen and Jiang Anping came back from the toilet together.

This brought Shiraishi's thinking to an abrupt halt, and the conversation that Shiraishi had been looking forward to for the long time came to an end.

After chatting for a few minutes with laughter, they got in the car.

Next…

Set off for a May Day trip!

Chapter 247 Then play music and then dance

Next, Cadillac started from a small county town and got on the highway.

The long road trip began.

A drive of nearly 400 kilometers is nothing for an experienced driver, but it is definitely not a short journey.

The whole journey takes at least three or four hours.

The time in the car was quite boring. They were driving on the highway the whole time and could occasionally see some nice scenery, but most of the time it was just the same old roads and vehicles.

So except for Shiraishi who was concentrating on driving, everyone in the car was doing their own thing.

Relaxing jazz music was playing in the car, trying to add a bit of comfort to the journey.

Chen Yun, sitting in the passenger seat, read the novel calmly.

However, the speed at which he turned the pages was so fast that it was incomprehensible to ordinary people.

Jiang Anping and Sun Huiwen in the back row were each immersed in their own world.

Jiang Anping was wearing headphones, humming along with the music, flipping through a book about travel photography. He looked out the window from time to time, as if looking for the next scene worth capturing.

Sun Huiwen turned on her tablet and immersed herself in the latest downloaded TV series or movies, occasionally looking up into the distance, her thoughts wandering between real and virtual stories.

In today's society.

It's hard to find anyone who can pass the time in a car without playing with their phone or tablet.
