Chapter 1303: Calling the Wind and Rain, Journey to the Continent 5
However, what Mingxu didn't expect was that after they left, the man also received some news, frowned, and changed the venue again.
The bustling scene of the city that never sleeps quickly attracted everyone's attention. The colorful lights, the dazzling array of goods, and the various performances were dazzling. Xiaoxin ran around excitedly in the crowd, and Guangzhi and Meisai followed behind, often attracted by some interesting stall.
While Chen Feng was introducing the characteristics of the City That Never Sleeps, he was paying attention to Mingxu's reaction. He felt that Mingxu seemed to be worried about something.
"Xiaoxu, did you feel anything?" Chen Feng walked to Mingxu and asked softly while Guangzhi and the others were choosing souvenirs in front of a small stall.
Mingxu nodded and said without hiding anything: "I just saw the man from before. He appeared here. I don't think things are that simple."
Chen Feng frowned when he heard this: "You mean, he might be doing some kind of deal here?"
"It's possible, and I think we may have been involved in some kind of dispute." Mingxu's eyes revealed a hint of solemnity.
"What should we do now?" Chen Feng asked. He also realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Let's observe first, don't alert the enemy, and protect everyone's safety at the same time." Mingxu said, scanning the crowd, trying to find the man's trace.
Just then, a slight commotion came from the crowd. Mingxu and Chen Feng looked at each other and immediately walked towards the direction of the commotion. They walked through the crowd and found that a thief was stealing a tourist's wallet, and the tourist seemed unaware of it.
"Catch the thief!" Mingxu shouted. Seeing this, Chen Feng quickly acted, subdued the thief, and returned the wallet to the tourist. The tourist was overwhelmed with gratitude and thanked him profusely. The surrounding crowd also broke into applause, praising Mingxu and Chen Feng for their bravery.
Hiroshi and Misae stood aside. Misae grabbed Shin-chan's face with her hands and expressed her approval of their actions. However, Shin-chan looked a little painful. It seemed that he had just done something and was forcibly caught by Misae.
However, at this moment, Mingxu suddenly felt a familiar gaze cast upon him again. He turned sharply, only to see a hurriedly departing figure. Although he couldn't see the man's face clearly, Mingxu was certain it was the absent-minded man from before.
"It seems that our guess is correct. He does have a purpose here." Mingxu said to Chen Feng, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
"Then what should we do now? Should we follow and see?" Chen Feng asked. For some reason, he felt that when facing Xiaoxu, he felt a bit like communicating with someone of the same age.
Mingxu pondered for a moment and shook his head. "It's too risky to follow him now. We're not familiar with the environment here, and since he dared to show up here, he must have made some preparations. Let's continue observing and contact local friends to see if we can find out more about this man."
Chen Feng nodded: "You are right, safety first. I will contact a few familiar friends to see if they can provide some useful information." As he said, he took out his mobile phone and started making a call.
Mingxu continued to scan the crowd, trying to catch more clues about the man. He knew that this matter might be more complicated than they imagined, but since he was already involved, he couldn't just sit back and do nothing. Especially now that his family and friends were around, he had to ensure their safety.
Guangzhi and Meiya saw Mingxu and Chenfeng's serious faces and realized what might have happened. They didn't ask any questions, but just followed Mingxu and Chenfeng silently, ready to help at any time.
After a while, Chen Feng hung up the phone, a serious look on his face. "My friend said that this man might be a member of a mysterious organization. They have been active in Xi'an recently, but their specific purpose is still unclear."
Mingxu frowned even more deeply upon hearing this. "A mysterious organization? It seems this matter is really not simple. We need to be more careful."
Just as they were talking, a melodious music came from the depths of the city that never sleeps.
The music was ethereal and mysterious, as if holding some kind of magic, drawing the crowd towards its source. Mingxu's heart stirred, sensing a connection between the music and the mysterious man.
"Let's go and take a look." Mingxu said to Chen Feng, and at the same time signaled Guangzhi and Meiya to follow closely.
The group slowly moved forward with the crowd, passing through a series of brightly lit alleys, and finally arrived at a relatively open square. In the center of the square, a woman in ancient costume was dancing gracefully. Her movements were light and graceful, like a fairy descending to earth. The melodious music came from the band beside her.
Mingxu's eyes scanned the square until suddenly, his gaze fixed on it. In the corner of the square, he spotted the absent-minded man again. He was standing there quietly, his gaze fixed on the dancing woman, as if waiting for something.
"He's there." Mingxu said softly to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng followed Mingxu's gaze and saw the man. "It seems our guess is correct. He is indeed related to this place. Let's find a way to get closer to him and listen to what he is saying."
Just as they were discussing countermeasures, the man suddenly turned around and left, with his cell phone in his hand. It seemed that he had just received some news.
"Do you want to follow?" Chen Feng asked Mingxu.
"No, it's better not to meddle in other people's business." Mingxu shook his head. Looking at Guangzhi Meiya, Xiaoxin, and Xiaokui who were watching the dance behind him, his family was all here.
"Well. In this case, it's getting late. Let's go back first to avoid any accidents." Chen Feng looked at the time and turned to Guangzhi and the others.
They naturally had no objections. After all, Xiaoxu's competition was tomorrow, and there was still time to play after the competition. After deciding on the plan, the group prepared to return to the hotel.
However, on the way out, Xiaoxin suddenly covered his stomach and ran anxiously to the toilet. It seemed that the boy was desperate again.
After entering the toilet, Xiaoxin put his backpack aside, then entered the cubicle and started to zoom in.
On the other side, after Mingxu and the others left, the man also met the person he thought he wanted to trade with.
"I finally found you. I'll give this thing to you. No matter what, don't let it fall into the hands of those people." Looking at the young man in front of him, the man took out the package and was about to hand it over.
"Hmm." The young man didn't waste any more time, reaching out to take the small package. However, at this moment, the man suddenly noticed something wrong. Why did this guy also have a small black snake on his collar? Could it be that this guy was actually part of the organization? No, then why was he being arranged to trade with him? Did he betray?!
Thinking of this, the man subconsciously retracted his hand.
The young man was stunned and looked at the other person in confusion: "What's wrong with you? Bring it over!"
"No! You are not that person! Or rather, you are no longer the person who is going to contact me! You actually have the logo of the Black Snake Organization on you!" The man held the small package tightly, looking at the young man with a bit of horror in his eyes.
Hearing this, the young man raised his eyebrows and looked at his clothes subconsciously: "It seems that you have found out. Never mind, you have found out. Anyway, you must be confused now. You'd better hand over the things obediently, otherwise everyone will be embarrassed." As he spoke, the young man clapped his hands, and a group of people in black clothes, with small black snakes embroidered on their bodies, rushed out and slowly surrounded them.
Seeing this, the man's eyes became fierce. He knew he was in a desperate situation, but he couldn't let the package fall into the hands of these people. He held the package tightly, his mind working rapidly, thinking of a way to escape.
"You think you can take things like this? You're so naive!" The man shouted angrily, suddenly throwing the package in one direction and rushing in the opposite direction. His movements were so swift that the men in black were temporarily unable to react.
"Stop him! Don't let him run away!" Seeing this, the young man shouted hurriedly. His movements were too big and some details on his neck were exposed. However, the man did not notice it because he was busy running away.
The men in black finally reacted. Some of them chased in the direction the package was flying, while the others continued to surround the man.
The man dove left and right through the crowd, relying on his familiarity with the terrain and his agility, and temporarily escaped the pursuit of the men in black. But he knew that this was only temporary, and those people would not let him go easily.
However, what he just threw out was a package, but the things inside had been taken out by himself when they were not paying attention. Touching the small box in his arms, the man gritted his teeth, looked at the toilet not far away, and ran in.
Seeing the other party running out of the encirclement, Poison Hemlock was so angry that he tore off the disguise on his face: "Damn it! Find him for me!" Thinking of the situation if he couldn't find the person, Poison Hemlock trembled suddenly.
At this time, Shin-chan in the toilet was solving his own problem comfortably.
After the man came in, he saw Xiaoxin's backpack in the corner. After thinking it over, he put the box into the backpack. Then he ran out and hid in a corner not far away. He had to first determine who the backpack belonged to so that he could find the person when the time came.
Outside, Mingxu was chatting with Chen Feng. He learned one thing from Chen Feng, that is, some powerful warriors on the mainland also have the ability of internal energy, which they have slowly explored over the years. The energy coming out of Chen Feng's hand just now was evolved from internal energy. Since Li Li had been on the island for a long time, he had not mastered it yet, so he did not pass it to Mingxu.
