Chapter 66 (1/2)

Dutoit was resourceful. He had already received his visa while Huang Xuan was on his way to the airport in a car, which was extremely difficult for ordinary people. However, obviously, Dutoit wasn't ordinary. He even managed to take the same plane as Huang Xuan. But since he was in the economy cabin, they didn't meet. Perhaps he had done that on purpose. Most people didn't like others' following them all day long. Take Huang Xuan for example. He detested the bodyguards behind him, who made him feel even more unsafe.

Rolin himself was a guarantee to his safety. The bodyguards weren't able to deal with the threat from the time traveler. Huang Xuan even doubted that they would do him a disservice. Nevertheless, Zhang Xinyi had insisted on hiring professional bodyguards from IZO Mercenary Company to protect her precious son 24/7. Those soldiers from Israel, who had stiff facial expressions, looked serious and intense. Everybody had been on their guard against all possible dangers ever since Huang Xuan had been attacked. Two of the st.u.r.dy men even formed a human s.h.i.+eld to beware of possible threats.

Only Huang Xuan knew it was totally unnecessary. Even the time traveler from another plane had underestimated Rolin, let alone ordinary people. Theoretically, he should be safe as long as the plane pa.s.sage was closed.

Huang Xuan's only concern was the time traveler, who probably would make more oscillations to change the links between two planes and open a new pa.s.sage. In Huang Xuan's opinion, the plane was like an old train, and each s.p.a.ce was like a carriage. When one of the carriages was twisted, the train might crack, or a window or a door might open. If the twist was strong enough, the whole train might be destroyed.

If he wanted to twist one of the s.p.a.ces, the easiest way was to kill innocent people and make the ones supposed to die live. It upset Huang Xuan greatly. He didn't want innocent people to die because of him. The word ”death” was way too depressing for a teenager.

Zhang Xinyi was picking his son up at Lukou Airport. Together with her were some bodyguards, who didn't look as good as the mercenaries around Huang Xuan.

On the plane, Huang Xuan didn't feel much, but the moment he saw his mom, he threw himself at her and couldn't help shedding tears. Zhang Xinyi hugged her son tightly and patted on his back as she talked. She had sent the father and son abroad to relieve Huang Xuan's grandfather, not because it was dangerous at home, and they should have been safe objectively. Unexpectedly, a terrorist attack really happened. It was still uncertain who it was against. Zhang Xinyi hoped it was not someone from the family that had done it. She was very afraid. At this moment, it looked as if she was comforting her son as well as herself. Luckily, she didn't know about the dagger yet. Otherwise, she would blame herself right now.

Huang Xuan wiped the tears off his eyes in embarra.s.sment and supported his mom to stand up. In the past two months, he had acc.u.mulated more experience than the past ten-odd years and had learned how to adjust his mood. He patted on his mom's shoulder and said, ”I am fine. The scene was spectacular, but it was really nothing. The reporters tend to make it a big deal.”

”That's relieving.” Zhang Xinyi took a tissue and wiped her eyes. Then she handed a tissue to Huang Xuan and said, ”Use tissues not your hands to wipe your eyes. I have told you so many times, but you still can't remember it.”

”I forgot it,” Huang Xuan responded with a smile.

The two walked outward, talking and laughing, without a trace of the sad scene people had witnessed just now.

”Huang Xuan, I have found the time traveler,” Rolin said as soon as they had got in the car.

”Where?” Huang Xuan got intense and looked at his mom who was taking a beverage out of the icebox.

”I am afraid that he is in Jiangsu Province,” Rolin sounded solemn. ”It seems he is either looking for the base or you.”

”Looking for the base? Why?”

”He is very likely a well-trained s.p.a.ce warrior. Although he is injured, he is able to go back to his own plane as long as he can control a base here. It is much safer than making an oscillation.”

”Then why is he looking for me?”
