Chapter 3 Mysterious Event
After returning home from school in the evening, Chu Zihang immediately went to find Zhang Baiqing after dinner, and Zhang Baiqing was also on high alert.
"Zihang, you may not believe this, but you all have forgotten that person. Except for me."
Zhang Baiqing was not idle today. Although Xia Mi did not continue to study in Shilan Middle School for high school, some of her junior high school classmates were still there. He found several of Xia Mi's classmates through his memory, but after asking, he learned that there was no such person!
Then in the afternoon, relying on the relationship with her new stepfather Lu Tianming, she went to the Academic Affairs Office to check the enrollment records of the previous junior high school graduates. It turned out that there was not even a single person with the surname Xia in the list of students who graduated from the previous junior high school!
According to the fantasy novels he had read, was it the timeline or the fate line that had been modified? Was it just so fantasy?
"You said that she and I were very close, but why are you the only one who remembers her?"
Chu Zihang asked a question of doubt.
At this moment, life suddenly seems pretty good?
"First of all, I don't know either." Zhang Baiqing immediately made his position clear, and then said: "Then, have you ever seen anything similar to this mysterious and strange thing?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Zihang immediately fell silent.
Has he seen anything like this before? Of course he has.
Odin in mythology, bloodline, Kassel Academy.
He opened his mouth and asked softly, "Have you never seen anything like this?"
He remembered Zhang Baiqing's defense that made him helpless yet calm, and the wooden sword made of hard wood, which was as fragile as noodles in his hand.
This cheap "brother" may not be an ordinary person.
Zhang Baiqing's eyes suddenly became profound.
"Since you asked sincerely..."
Chu Zihang looked at him expressionlessly.
"Ahem." Zhang Baiqing calmed down and said seriously, "I only have a vague understanding of these mysterious events. It seems that this world is not as scientific as we know it."
Chu Zihang nodded.
"I have seen people transform into horrible monsters. Their eyes were golden yellow and as bright as lamps. They looked ferocious, violent, and had bloodthirsty eyes."
Chu Zihang nodded and waited for the next words.
Zhang Baiqing looked at Chu Zihang, and the two of them stared at each other.
"Gone?"
"Gone."
"..."
It was Chu Zihang's turn to speak: "I... do you know Odin?"
"Odin? The Lord of the Aesir in Norse mythology and Viking faith, in charge of prophecy, kingship, wisdom, healing, magic, poetry, war and death. A one-eyed god with a long white beard, wearing an eagle helmet and golden armor, holding the eternal spear Gungnir in his hand, and wearing the golden ring of Dropnir in his hand. He has two ravens, Fokine and Münir, on his shoulders, and rides the eight-legged horse Threpnir. His palace is the Silver Hall. Legend has it that he saw the twilight of the gods from the prophecy, accumulated enough troops to respond, and sent his subordinates to collect the souls of the dead in battle and make them heroic warriors."
Zhang Baiqing spoke fluently. He had a photographic memory and could tell the stories and legends he had seen immediately.
"I've seen him."
Chu Zihang recalled the god who was the same as the one described by Zhang Baiqing. A hint of golden light flashed in his eyes and his emotions became extremely unstable.
Because he remembered the man who was incompetent in the eyes of most people on the rainy night.
'If I die, the only thing I will leave in this world is you. If you die too, I will have nothing in this world.'
"Calm down, Zihang."
Zhang Baiqing asked the other party to calm down, but he himself found it difficult to calm down.
He thought: 'Fuck, Odin has come out! I still underestimated Dragon Clan. If I go back to the mountains and discipline myself for three to five hundred years, will it be too late before I come out again?'
After a while, Chu Zihang calmed down, the golden light in his eyes disappeared, and he apologized: "Sorry, I thought of something bad."
"It's okay. It's Odin after all."
Zhang Baiqing probably also knew that the bad thing must be related to Odin.
"Someone told me about Odin, and also about bloodlines. Bloodlines that are different from ordinary people seem to have extraordinary powers. As for the monster you mentioned, it might be called Deadpool. There is also a school in the United States called Cassel College, which seems to be related to this."
Chu Zihang told some of the things he knew, but he didn't say anything about the rainy night and Odin. In his opinion, challenging the gods was tantamount to seeking death, and the one seeking death was only him, not Zhang Baiqing.
Zhang Baiqing nodded. He was not clear about the story of "Dragon Clan". He only knew the names of Chu Zihang, Lu Mingfei, Lu Mingze, Xia Mi, Herzog, and Eri. There was also the Dragon King and the Black King. He was not even sure whether this Dragon King referred to the dragons or the three-year period had expired.
"About Kassel College..."
Chu Zihang said: "I'm looking it up on the Internet, but there's not much information. This academy is very mysterious."
Zhang Baiqing hummed, and after a long silence, he asked, "If my memory serves me right, Xia Mi may still be studying in the Peking University preparatory class. Should we go look for her?"
He remembered that netizens said that Xia Mi, the shame of the Dragon King, and Chu Zihang, the killer brother, were a couple. It shouldn't be a problem to go with Chu Zihang to find her, right? You can't even kill your husband's good brother, right?
Chu Zihang fell silent. He wanted revenge and had been looking for information about Kassel College. This college might be related to that man’s bloodline.
However, Xia Mi's act of erasing all deeds and people's memories gave him a way out. He didn't know how powerful Odin was, but what he needed was to become stronger.
The child who cowardly chose to run away dreamed of returning to that rainy night and charging towards Odin with the man on the viaduct, fighting side by side with the man, instead of escaping in embarrassment.
"I want to go find her."
"Then I'll go with you. Next week is the New Year's Day holiday, and including the weekend, there are three days off in total, which is enough for us to go around the capital."
"it is good."
……
Before New Year's Day, the two asked their parents for permission to go to Beijing for fun, and Lu Tianming and Su Xiaoyan agreed immediately.
Then when the New Year's Day holiday arrived, the two immediately boarded a plane and headed for Beijing.
"But, how are we supposed to find her?"
The two were in Peking University, feeling somewhat lost in the huge campus.
Within the limited visiting time, the two gained nothing and wandered around Peking University unwillingly.
But three days passed and the two still hadn't found Xia Mi, at least Xia Mi was not in the preparatory class they found.
……
"Why are they here?"
The two were queuing up at the airport to board the plane back, and standing in the waiting hall, there was a girl with an extraordinary appearance and seemed perfect looking at them through the glass. She was the person the two had come to Beijing to find - Xia Mi.
It was understandable for Chu Zihang to travel to Beijing during the New Year's Day holiday. Although Zhang Baiqing was born in an orphanage, she knew that he had a way to make money and traveling was not a burden. There was nothing wrong with the two of them traveling to BJ together, but going straight to Peking University and coming directly to see her was very problematic.
Because she had erased every trace of herself that had been left in that coastal city.
"Did we miss something? This shouldn't be the case?"
Xia Mi had a strange look on her face.
She was certain that all traces of her had been erased in that coastal town.
"has a problem."
She frowned, wanting to test it, but she was worried about something. The Dragon King was only standing at a high place, not at the top. There were still things in this world that the Dragon King was afraid of.
After watching the two people board the plane in the waiting hall, she turned and left.
In that city, as long as Odin didn't take action, she was not afraid of the rest.
……
When the two returned home in the evening, it started to drizzle.
At night, the rain is still falling. As the night deepens, the lights from the bustling city outside gradually become dimmer. If you look up at the sky at this time, you will only see a dark sky without any light.
After bringing the milk to his mother, Chu Zihang went down to the living room, took out a Japanese knife and wiped it carefully.
Zhang Baiqing came down from upstairs at this time: "Zihang, it seems that every time it rains, you become depressed."
"Ah."
Chu Zihang didn't tell him the reason, nor did he ask. Instead, he continued, "I have compiled a file based on what you mentioned about Xia Mi. The information shown in the file is a bit strange. Her residence may not be in the city, but in a high-tech heavy industrial area on the edge of the city."
"You may not have any impression of that place, but I can only say that it is like the end of the world in science fiction, with unfinished and dilapidated factory buildings everywhere. Apart from work needs, almost no one would live there. Only wild cats and dogs would occasionally jump out of the bushes."
"If the highway leading to the elevated highway wasn't passing right next to it, I would have suspected that this place was sparsely populated."
