Doomsday Club
Chapter 27: A Night Visit to the Basement
For a father
What could be more unacceptable than having your carefully nurtured cabbage for twenty years stolen by a "pig"?
Even though this "pig" looks harmless, and my own little cabbage seems to like it very much.
Absolutely not!
This is a father's natural hostility towards his daughter's boyfriend, and the tacit understanding between knights who draw their swords when they meet.
Lin Xiaoxiao was completely stunned when she was suddenly promised to hold hands with him.
Looking down at Xu Nuo holding her hand, feeling the warmth from her palm, she came to her senses and found herself being led by Xu Nuo for a walk in the neighborhood.
I have to say, it's really nice to live in a neighborhood where rich people live.
Unlike the European-style landscaping of Mingyue's house, this community mainly features Chinese-style gardens and greenery.
Xu Nuo and his wife walked hand in hand in the neighborhood. Occasionally, they would pass by young couples having a secret rendezvous in the pavilion and look at them curiously. For a moment, it felt as if they were really on a date.
"Brother Xu Nuo..."
"Um?"
Do you think we can succeed?
In my dream.
The colossal Sky City, like a creation of the gods, arrogantly overlooked the entire wasteland.
All their efforts seemed like a joke the moment Sky City appeared.
Even in her dreams, Lin Xiaoxiao could feel the pervasive despair.
She turned her head and glanced at Xu Nuo beside her. Had he been fighting against this kind of thing all along?
"Of course you can."
Xu Nuo smiled, his tone deliberately light.
But he forgot that he was still holding hands with Lin Xiaoxiao.
The emotion was transmitted to Lin Xiaoxiao's heart through her body temperature, making her gaze towards Xu Nuo even gentler.
From the very first meeting, it was just a little prank by a fan on their idol.
Xu Nuo didn't know her identity; she just wanted to see what her favorite author was like in real life.
She meets him in her dream and discovers the secret he has hidden.
Now, and in the future, they are already companions in saving the world.
When Lin Xiaoxiao came to her senses.
The thread of fate had long since unknowingly entangled itself between the two, becoming inextricably intertwined.
"I wish we were really on a date."
With these thoughts in mind, the girl sighed inwardly.
I have absolutely no idea what Lin Xiaoxiao is thinking.
Xu Nuo was so nervous he was about to die.
This is the real timeline; he doesn't have a chance to start over.
He had to ensure his safety, otherwise, the slightest mistake could lead to utter ruin.
This is not the end of the world.
They can accomplish whatever they want without anyone noticing.
In modern society, cameras are everywhere. If you make a mistake in the real world, the doomsday organization can pinpoint your location accurately through various clues in a short period of time.
He waved at the door and watched Lin Xiaoxiao return to the villa.
Xu Nuo took advantage of this time to activate the signal jammer and climb through a window from a blind spot of the camera to enter the villa.
"We have to hurry."
He took a deep breath and looked at Lin Xiaoxiao in front of him with a serious expression.
He cannot disappear from the community's surveillance cameras for too long.
Thanks to the wealthy people's "obsessive-compulsive" attitude towards privacy, no community surveillance cameras were installed near the villa area.
That's why he was able to successfully sneak in through the window, hiding in a blind spot of the surveillance cameras.
Avoiding the room's security cameras, she jogged to the study, making sure to put on gloves to prevent fingerprints.
Pushing open the door, I followed Lin Xiaoxiao directly to the bookshelf.
Pressing the switch hidden behind the bookshelf, the bookshelf moved along the rails, and a passage leading directly underground appeared in front of the two.
Seeing this, Xu Nuo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm not worried about anything else, but I'm afraid that Lin's father hasn't started building the basement by now. If that happens, all our actions tonight will be a complete joke.
Lin Xiaoxiao's behavior was completely different from Xu Nuo's.
She did know about the future, but it was all just in the form of dreams.
Now that the scene from her dream was actually appearing before her eyes, the expression on her face was very complicated.
Unexpected? Or expected?
It's impossible to explain anymore.
However, neither of them hesitated and decisively entered the passage.
They continued deeper and deeper until they finally managed to enter the basement.
Xu Nuo's face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
After so long, our actions in the real world have finally yielded results.
"It's different from the one in my dream."
"Um."
Looking around, all that could be seen were ordinary cement walls.
I don't know if it's because the new material hasn't been invented yet, or for some other reason.
But that's not important; he didn't come here for that mysterious material anyway.
He needs to search for clues.
If Lin's father really had some unspeakable secret, then this basement would obviously be the best hiding place.
The two split up and began searching the basement.
Soon, Lin Xiaoxiao made a discovery.
"Brother Xu Nuo, come and look at this."
In Lin Xiaoxiao's hand was a document and a small piece of pure white cloth.
What Xu Nuo cared about most was the white hourglass logo on the cover of the materials.
"Lin's father is indeed connected to the world-destroying organization!"
His pupils contracted sharply, and he strode over.
I eagerly opened the document, but it seemed to be just a contract from the client.
The key lies in the material of that small piece of fabric next to it.
"This thing is probably the prototype of a new material."
Xu Nuo held the object in his hand and observed it for a long time. As someone who had personally seen and handled the new material, he quickly gave his own judgment.
Although they look completely unrelated, both the functions recorded in the material and its unique feel prove that the little thing in front of you is the new material that can withstand the white light of the apocalypse.
A project proposal for a new material?
What does this thing prove?
Xu Nuo frowned slightly.
After taking the photos, I put the two items back in their original places and searched the basement for a long time, but found nothing except for these two items.
Silently calculating the time in his mind, Xu Nuo sighed helplessly.
He can't block the signal for too long; his purpose will be too obvious.
He pulled Lin Xiaoxiao away, and from entering the study to leaving, it took less than five minutes in total.
Sitting on the windowsill, Xu Nuo waved her phone at Lin Xiaoxiao: "We'll talk later."
After saying that, he jumped out of the window and left, his movements swift and decisive, like a master thief from a comic book.
Lin Xiaoxiao watched nervously as Xu Nuo disappeared from her sight, hoping that this operation would not give her away.
They did not choose to leave directly.
Instead, he jogged around in a circle and returned to the pavilion in the community.
When Xu Nuo reappeared in the community's surveillance footage, he was on a completely different route from the Lin family villa.
He recalled every detail of the operation in his mind.
Only then did he relax and ride away on the electric scooter at the entrance of the residential area.
