I will never give in to Miss Death

I nodded. “It was built in the last few years. There’s almost nothing in it.”

In fact, this month I occasionally investigated this place when Xiaomo wasn't paying attention.

The address "Room 3, Building 3, Nannagi Bay Community, No. 801 Wanghai Road, Minaminagi District, Kamihama City" on my ID card did exist several years ago.

But I have no idea what exactly happened over the years.

Moreover, I also found out on the Internet that this "Nan Nagi Bay Community" is not simple.

Like Ouyang Xue's Cat Cafe in Shangjing, he was once the center of political struggle in Nannai District.

There are basically no related reports on the Internet. There are many different opinions, and no one can explain the struggle behind this community. I can only get a general idea through the revelations of "relevant people" on some forums.

Simply put, this "Nan Nagi Bay Community" should have been built ten years ago in theory. At the beginning, this community adopted the "futuresale" model. Compared with the current "ready-to-move-in houses", people at that time were not very clear about the risks of "futuresale houses". In addition, real estate speculation was on the rise across the country, and the houses in Nan Nagi Bay Community were sold out as soon as they were put on sale.

Nannagi Bay Community was promoted as an "ocean-style community" at that time. The "Nannagi Bay Community" on the design drawings had a swimming pool, coconut trees, palm trees, beautiful beaches and cobblestone paths, and it looked particularly beautiful.

However, what those who bought the pre-sale houses in "Nan Nagi Bay Community" did not expect was that their houses were left unfinished because the developer died unexpectedly.

The murder case was widely reported, and all kinds of rumors were spread. Finally, with the intervention of the Minaminagi District government, a new developer took over the project. Less than a year had passed when a dramatic scene occurred. Three shareholders of the new developer's related company, including the big boss, got into an accident. Four people died and three were seriously injured in a car accident.

So many people died within three years, and they were all related to the house developer. All kinds of conspiracy theories came out all of a sudden. Some said that a certain force in Minaminagi District did not allow houses to be built here. Some said that the mastermind behind Minaminagi District failed to reach an agreement on the money with the developer and killed them secretly. In short, no developer was willing to take over the project of Minaminagi Bay Community since then. The Minaminagi District Government had no choice but to seek help from the leaders of Kamihama City. The two sides argued for a long time, and the Minaminagi District Government received a grant. The district mayor personally led the construction team and it took another three years to build the houses in the community.

However, due to financial constraints, the swimming pool and beach in Minami Nagi Bay are gone, the palm trees and coconut trees are gone, and the construction team simply did some landscaping after building the houses. The owners of Minami Nagi Bay were unhappy and went to demand an explanation. The Minami Nagi District also felt aggrieved and didn't know how to resolve the issue, so it was delayed for several more years.

Finally, two or three years ago, there was a big explosion... boom, and the Nannagi Bay community was gone.

The netizens were completely crazy now, and they were speculating about which big boss was in charge of the Wanghai Road area in Nannai District, who would rather blow it up than build houses. Seeing that public opinion was becoming more and more terrifying, the city quickly sent an inspection team to check the situation. In the end, they concluded that it was due to geological problems. A landslide occurred in the Nannai Bay area, not man-made damage, nor a terrorist attack. They asked everyone not to make random comments, and then all the houses in Nannai Bay were judged to be dangerous buildings and demolished, and the owners were given a large sum of resettlement fees.

These things have basically been blocked and deleted on the Internet. If I hadn’t been curious and spent almost a month searching, I really wouldn’t have known that such a thing had happened in Nannai District. What’s more, I was an old man before... The incident in Nannai Bay Community happened when I was in college and started working after graduation. I had no time to pay attention to these gossips, so it’s normal that I didn’t know about Nannai Bay Community.

What I am curious about now is whether the free park Wanghai Park built on the ruins after the Nannagiwan community was demolished and the explosion at that time had any connection with Xiaomo.

I always feel that Xiaomo seems to be hiding a lot of things from me, but my intuition tells me that it doesn’t matter if I don’t know these things, because Xiaomo handles them very well.

"There are two patrolmen inside."

As I walked towards the park entrance, Philo beside me said, "He should be a security guard or something."

"A free park like this still has security guards this late?"

I asked curiously, "Where are they from?"

"One is inside the park, and the other is at the exit of another side door."

Philo tilted his head back, as if sensing something in some special way: "Do you want to go in?"

"Hmm... Based on your understanding of Xiaomo, would she go to a place like this to recuperate after defeating the Demon King?"

After that, because I was worried about the "confidentiality agreement" between Filo and Xiaomo, I added: "It has nothing to do with the Demon King. I just want to ask if Xiaomo will leave anything here, because when I saw her, Xiaomo... was in a very bad state."

"Want to know?"

The girl next to me leaned close to my ear and said, "If Nuo'er wants to ask whether Momo will have any sad memories here... I can answer you with certainty that she will not."

"Eh?"

"Momo is such a person. Or maybe she learned her bad character traits from the hero."

Filo stretched and said, "She went out alone without saying a word and solved all the problems. She also told us that she was fine even though she was seriously injured. That was all taught to her by that arrogant hero. If you really care about Xiaomo, you don't have to go to a place like this. It would be better to go directly to her, okay?"

"Go directly to her?"

I thought about it: "Can you feel where she is?"

"You must be joking. She and I have been friends for many years. How big is this city?"

Philo yawned in the moonlight, then squatted with his back to me and flapped his wings twice: "Hmm?"

I was silent for a moment, ran two steps towards her, and jumped up.

"Hey-"

Grabbing my legs wrapped in silk stockings, Filo stood up easily: "To be honest, I don't know what happened on the day when Filo fought the Demon King. After all, he is her biological father. But I think it's better not to ask about such things. She is old enough and can solve it herself."

"Besides, Nuo'er, you are still so young. It's not good for you to know too much. What you need to do most now is to enjoy the greenhouse garden that Xiaomo brings you and grow up little by little."

"I'm not young anymore."

I said dissatisfiedly: "To humans, I am already an adult!"

"Can you please explain it again to this little elf girl's body?"

Philo pinched the soft flesh of my calf and said, "I'll tell you a little bit. Your current body has been developing for at least two hundred years. The Forbidden Life Spell can only synthesize a body embryo, not a soul out of thin air. This means that Xiaomo started preparing a body for you at least two hundred years ago before he defeated the Demon King. Your decades of human life are really just like a child in our history."

"So, Nuoer, you should grow up a little bit before you learn the truth."

"..."

No. 235 Succubus City and Cyberpunk Youth Edition

The place where Philo mentioned "sensing Yin Xiamo" was a busy area in the Glory District of Shenbin City.

It’s not really accurate to call it a downtown area, because the Glory District is a typical “few people and lots of money” area, and those who can live here are basically rich people, or… former rich people.

Because this place is close to the Shenbin River and the sea, many seaside villas have been built. The rich people in the city will come back to the villa area to stay for a day or two when they have nothing to do. If they have something to do, it is normal for them to stay away for a long time, so the occupancy rate of the houses here is quite low.

But this doesn't mean that the area is empty - in fact, the downtown area here has a "retro cyberpunk" feel, but one with very few people.

It is difficult for me to describe the weirdness of this district. It is just like those expensive specialty stores in some of the more prosperous areas in the central district, brand stores where a bag costs tens or hundreds of thousands, or a computer that sells for a few thousand or ten thousand elsewhere sells for seventy or eighty thousand or more than a hundred thousand here. Obviously, there are not many people in the stores at ordinary times, and the people in the stores are basically playing with their phones or watching TV series. It feels like they will go bankrupt at any time, but these "high-end brand stores" are able to stay open.

Personally, I have never been to such a store. Even if I occasionally pass by the bustling squares in the central area of ​​​​Kamihama City, the most I would do is buy a bottle of water or a two-dollar sausage at the grocery store. As for those luxury stores that make you feel "unworthy of entering" just by looking at the store decoration, I dare not even look at them for a second.

The Glory District is basically filled with luxury stores of this kind.

The transportation in the Glory District is very developed. There are street lights all around the various crisscrossing overpasses. Super plazas and shopping malls dance in the neon lights like beautiful butterflies at night. With the huge advertising screens on the roadside, the whole district looks very prosperous. In fact, there are very few vehicles passing by even in the center. There is almost no concept of "pedestrian street" in the commercial district. The roads are very wide. People here need to buy something by sitting in a luxury car with a beautiful woman, stopping in front of a shopping mall, entering the store, and coming out again in the car and leaving after a while.

Afterwards, shortly after those rich people entered the store, a group of neatly dressed workers or managers would come in, take out the things that the rich people had just selected, load them into the cars, and drive away, probably to deliver the goods.

Some people say that Kamihama City is the city with the biggest gap between the rich and the poor, and I agree with this.

At least after seeing the comparison between Zhou Xiaofei's house at Xingguang Primary School, the big villas in the Glory District, and the lifestyles of the rich, I understand what "the gap between people" means.

Originally, I thought that the high-end residential area of ​​Jiang Wei, where Yin Xiamo and I had ridden our bicycles before, was already a standard part of the Glory Zone. I didn’t expect that area to be just the “slum” of the Glory Zone. The closer you get to the center of the district, the more you can see how extravagantly people live here.

“This area is so beautiful from above…”

Flying over the Glory Zone with Filo, I heard the black dragon girl beneath me sigh at the hustle and bustle of the traffic below: "Unlike our world, at night it's basically just some lights and magic lights, not as diverse as this."

"If the lighting is a little weirder, it's the year 2077 as described in games and animations."

Sitting on Philo's neck, I took over her words and said this, then bent down slightly: "By the way, Philo, is it really okay for me to ride you like this? Aren't you... tired?"

"Wow, I am a dragon. Although dragons are not like centaurs that can be ridden by anyone, it is no problem for me to take care of a child like you, okay?"

Philo said in a nonchalant tone: "Don't even mention Nuo'er. Even if an adult came, I would have no pressure at all. At most, it would just look very out of place. Nuo'er, your size and weight are just right, just like a cat."

I corrected him: "It's at least two or three cats."

"Our bigger cats are about this heavy, like the little snow leopards."

snow leopard?

You call a leopard a "bigger cat"?

"So now I am..."

After a little thought, I thought about it from another perspective. I could carry 30-40 kg of things by myself. If it was riding on my back, it would be easier. What's more, it was an adult dragon. Plus, I was much shorter than Filo at this time. When Filo spread his wings, his body shape was not the same as mine. There was no sense of disobedience between the two of us. I stopped asking and changed the subject:

"There's no need to dwell on Xiaomo's background and past, right?"

"Hasn't Xiaomo already laid her cards on the table with you? She won't bother about the hero anymore."

Filo smiled mischievously: "No'er, you judge for yourself. When Momo was with you recently, was she more like an ordinary person or a magician?"

"Eh?"

Although I didn't quite understand why Philo asked this, I blurted out, "Ordinary people."

I can be sure of this. Apart from using magic to protect me when necessary, Yin Xiamo is no different from an ordinary person most of the time, and her lifestyle is as close to mine as possible.

"So, if Momo really had some strange ideas, the first thing she would do now is to find possible magic to restore all the hero's memories, or turn you into the one in his memory. But Xiaomo didn't do that. Instead, she adapted to your life, which means she is ready to start over again."

Filo said in a very calm tone: "By the way, little cutie, let me tell you some more news. The war with the Demon King ended hundreds of years ago, and the Demon King was sealed by us at that time. Last month, Xiaomo was just worried that it was not safe to seal the Demon King. Or maybe she came to this world and saw many novels and animations where the Demon King destroyed the world again after the seal was loosened, so she chose to remove the seal and kill the Demon King."

"Eh?"

I was shocked: "Can the seal be broken... to kill the demon king?"

"Of course, the Demon King has been sealed for hundreds of years and doesn't have much power left. Even Xiaomo alone is enough to deal with him."

Philo shook the dragon head and said, "After all this talk, you can finally rest assured, little guy, right? Xiaomo told me before that you, as an author, like to fantasize and make up a lot of strange plots in your mind, but in fact, they are not that complicated."

"Isn't this really a combination of you guys trying to comfort me?"

"Ugh……"

Philo, who was standing under him, suddenly sighed: "Little guy, hold on tight."

"what?"

Before I could react, the whole world suddenly spun -

"Ahhhhh-"

Thousands of meters in the air, Philo suddenly flapped her huge dragon wings. The strong propulsion made us rush forward like a cannonball. Then in less than three seconds, Philo did a 360-degree turn. I was so scared that I instinctively grabbed her two dragon horns and clamped her head tightly with my feet.

"Don't...don't speed up suddenly!"

"Because such an indecisive Nuoer is really boring. Did you become cautious because you were framed in your previous life? It doesn't matter. You are not that bad guy!"

Philo, who was underneath me, grabbed my feet again and said, "Okay, time to speed up!"

After saying that, Filo's two pairs of wings flapped violently again, accompanied by a burst of strong magical energy. Our speed instantly increased to several times of before, turning into a pitch-black "meteor" in the night sky, rushing towards the city center of the Glory District.

At the very center of the Glory Zone is a huge tower.

The world's largest clock is located on the top floor of the tower.

Unlike traditional round clocks, in addition to the clock on the east side, there are huge electronic LCD screens on the top of the tower in the west, south and north directions. At this moment, the LCD screens are playing advertisements for unknown people -

"Today's Kamihama news bulletin: Ms. Ye Yuqing, the youngest mayor of Kamihama City, met with Mr. Jobs, a famous overseas bridge expert..."

"The construction of the Shenbin City Cross-Sea Bridge will begin on June 6th, and Chief Prosecutor Su of the National Procuratorate will personally..."

"Technology changes life, fashion changes the world, Metatron Computer wishes you and your family happiness and health. When buying a computer, choose Metatron..."

Surrounding these lifelike billboards are RGB lights that constantly change colors, seemingly indicating the uniqueness of this tower.

"Alas--"

I was completely unprepared and was led by Filo to fly towards the tower.

"Wait, we'll be discovered! We'll be discovered by the surveillance cameras in the city!"

"We won't be discovered! I have calculated the range of all surveillance cameras in this city and the viewing area of ​​human eyes. It is very clear where the blind spots are!"

Filo's tone was full of pride: "Don't underestimate the giant dragon that survived thousands of years of gunfire and hail of bullets, you little elf! The magic gun lines of the magicians on the battlefield were much more dense than these surveillance cameras!"

Having said that, Philo once again rushed me towards the huge screen of the tower, then circled the tower and flew towards a glittering commercial street behind the tower.

"Isn't it exciting? This is a flying experience that ordinary people will never have in their lifetime!"

Recovering in mid-air, Filo raised his head and said, "I really like the technology in this world. It's not only practical, but also very beautiful!"

How can this dazzling and strange night light be practical?

I turned my head slightly while sitting on the dragon's back and glanced at the huge tower behind me.

Under the dim moonlight, this big guy was already sending today's news to the empty streets around it -

"Mayor Ye has reached an agreement with the Minaminagi District Government on the construction of the 10th District in Kamihama City. The person in charge of Minaminagi Port has expressed that he will fully cooperate with the work..."

"The person in charge of the power grid said that the submarine cable in the tenth district has been preliminarily laid. The tenth district has been temporarily named 'Mianyun District'. The Mianyun Bridge will connect to the Nannagi District Expressway..."

"Good evening, dear Rongqu... Oh no, now it should be called the 'Glory District', I'm so sorry, let's enjoy the most fashionable and cutting-edge songs together, who is ready for tomorrow - "Whos Ready for Tomorrow"

"..."

It is said that this tower was built more than ten years ago with funds provided by the son of a local wealthy man who was terminally ill. The wealthy man was in the steel business, his company was very large, and his personal assets were worth tens of billions.

There is also a very "rebellious" story about this father and son. It is said that the rich man raised his son as an ordinary child, and planned to wait until the son became an adult before confessing that his family was actually very rich. As a result, his son chose not to accept it on the day of the confession, and continued to live an ordinary life. Later, his father died of a terminal illness, and he inherited a large inheritance. Various brothers and sisters came to "borrow money" and "make connections". The rich man's son was annoyed and chose to leave and live in seclusion alone. Then he invested hundreds of millions in the construction of the "tower" in the Minami Nagi district. He bought a piece of land and built a tower that was useless. A clock and three LCD screens were set up on the roof, and the LCD screens randomly played advertisements and news. Buying this land and building the tower did not use up the rich man's fortune, so his son threw all the remaining money into the maintenance of the tower, and finally created such a building that "did not look at all commercial."
