194 Arriving In Snow City (1/2)
After spending three nights in the wild zone, Lin Huang finally brought Lin Xin and Lin Xuan to foothold No.7C88 - Li City. Lin Huang used Lin Xuan, Ye Xiu and his own identity to purchase the tickets. He even chose rooms on different floors. The Purple Crow did not know about the existence of Lin Xuan and Ye Xiu was still unknown to anyone. Meanwhile, outsiders could not even identify Lin Huang. Even if the Demonic Crystal Spaceship's network got hacked, they could not gain access to Lin Huang’s identity and purchase history. They wouldn't be able to find Lin Huang’s name.
Their spaceship would depart three days later, the three of them could take a good rest during that period. It was torture for Lin Xin to stay in the wild zone earlier. After picking a hotel near the plaza where the spaceship docked, Lin Huang used Ye Xiu’s identity to register the room. He then brought the both of them in.
It was a suite with three bedrooms where each of them could get one bedroom of their own. Lin Huang was relieved. While staying in the hotel, he finally got the time to reevaluate the battle videos. Meanwhile, Lin Xin and Lin Xuan tried not to head outside and they would only order takeaway food. During the three days in Li City, they only went out with Lin Huang twice.
On the fourth morning, the spaceship landed on the plaza. After breakfast; Lin Huang brought the both of them to board the spacecraft. He passed Ye Xiu’s Emperor’s Heart Ring to Lin Xin, the three of them boarded the spaceship successfully. The non-VIP rooms in the spaceship only had one living room and one bedroom. Lin Xin slept in the bedroom on her own while Lin Huang moved the small bed for children out for Lin Xuan; Lin Huang slept on the couch in the living room.
It would take 16 days to arrive in Snow City from Li City, and it would be New Year’s Eve when they finally got there. During the 16 days on the spaceship, Lin Huang immersed himself in the battle videos. However, he didn't enter the arena. Concerned about Lin Xin and Lin Xuan; he couldn't get into the mood for a battle.
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan did not know what was happening while he immersed himself in Gun Master. Ever since he gotten his account access into the exclusive zone for hunters; he was even more enthusiastic in playing the game as he would always encounter a professional that he could learn from.
Besides eating and sleeping, he spent all his time in the game. Although Lin Xin was aware that trouble was coming to them, she chose to trust Lin Huang. She spent most of the time on her homework as she knew the learning standard in a B-grade foothold would be higher than a D-grade foothold. Her result in the Hunter Reserve College was outstanding, but it would not be easy to attain the same results at a school in a B-grade foothold.
During the 16 days; Lin Huang managed to watch all the battle videos of players ranked from 6th to 3rd. He could have observed and learned more, but the spaceship landed safely in Snow City as expected even when it was snowing outside. After getting off the ship; Lin Huang brought the both of them to the delivery company to pick up the package from Yang Ling before checking into the hotel. Lin Xin’s new identity was Ling Xue; she gave herself that name. Coming up with the backstory of being an aboriginal from Snow City.
Lin Xin was cheerful wearing her new Emperor’s Heart Ring while watching the snow falling from the sky. Lin Xuan looked just as happy watching the snowflakes fall to the window. It seemed like it was his first time seeing snow.
”Alright, stop blocking the way you two. If we stay here, there will still be many chances in the future for both of you to look at snow.” Lin Huang got them to walk faster to the hotel.
When they entered the hotel room, the both of them ran straight to the balcony and refused to go back in.
”You guys can stay here to watch the snow, just don’t catch a cold.” Lin Huang then placed a sweater on both of them and returned to the living room. Looking at the falling snow from the transparent window, Lin Huang was stunned. It had been years since Lin Huang had last seen snow like this. He studied at the Northeastern University; had never returned to the place since he graduated.
The sound of boiling water woke him up from his nap. ”Are you guys done? Come inside and drink some hot tea!” he told the two kids.
He took three cups from the side along with the tea leaves; making three cups of tea. The two of them ignored Lin Huang and remained on the balcony; gazing at the snow. ”If the both of you refuse to come in, I’ll have to make you! Three, two…”
Lin Xin and Lin Xuan returned to the living room almost immediately, taking the tea from Lin Huang and sitting on the couch warming their hands with the hot drink.
Moments later, Lin Xin took a sip of the tea when it was not so hot anymore. ”Brother, I like it here. Let’s stay in Snow City!”
Lin Huang smiled, he did not expect Lin Xin to have such a great impression on the city and decide so quickly.
”Xiao Xuan, your sister likes it here. What about you?” Lin Huang then looked at Lin Xuan.
”It’s good.” Lin Xuan nodded immediately. He seemed to be mesmerized by the snow.
”Alright then, so this is it. We shall stay in Snow City!” Lin Huang nodded.
Seeing that Lin Xin and Lin Xuan ran to the balcony again after sipping their tea, Lin Huang went into the room and called Yang Ling. He was the same man who looked like he had not slept for days with bed hair and clothes that resembled a homeless person.
”So have you received the stuff that I sent you?” Yang Ling asked while yawning.
