Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 695 Naïve and Innocent?
Time flew by. Two days passed as the young man, as always, locked himself in his room and refused to come out, while Hu Ming and Yin Nanfeng idly strolled around the streets.

Early that morning, Wu Erbai had his most trusted subordinate deliver diving equipment to the two of them.

"Master Ming, I'm sorry, but we are also the Second Master in our family."

"These are the best diving facilities on the market. Second Master asked me to pass on a message to you about Warehouse Eleven: things aren't very peaceful there lately, so you'd better be careful when you go in."

Erjing first explained the issue of address to Hu Ming, then opened the car door to show Hu Ming what it was.

"Well, it's okay. I've heard a little bit about it, but it's nothing important."

"Speaking of which, there are only two of us, so why did they send three diving suits?"

Hu Ming nodded in understanding, then looked at the three sets of equipment in the trunk and asked in confusion.

"I asked Wu Erbai to prepare a set for me too... a phone, I know how to use a cell phone."

The young man pushed open the door, fully armed, and said calmly.

"…Holy crap, buddy, are you going to dismember Zhang Qishan like that?"

Hu Ming silently complained.

This guy's outfit is clearly gear for combat.

Dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, with a hood covering his head, he carried a black knife in a comfortable position on his back, making it easy for him to draw his sword and slash people at any moment.

In particular, Hu Ming keenly sensed a faint, sharp aura emanating from the young man.

"...Let's see how things go before making a decision?"

This guy is a bit different now; he'll try to make some harmless little jokes at this point.

superficial
"That's my great-aunt's and her husband's coffin! Zhang Qiling, I'm warning you, I don't care what grudge you have with the Buddha, but if you dare to harm my great-aunt's remains, I'll never forgive you!"

"Uncle Ming can't help either, that's what I, Yin Nanfeng, said."

Yin Nanfeng instantly flew into a rage; that was her most respected great-aunt!
Even offering more money won't work!
No matter how much you add, it won't work!
Hu Ming shrugged, indicating his helplessness.

The feud between Zhang Qishan and Xiao Ge was so deep that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were irreconcilable enemies. Zhang Qishan undoubtedly did many heinous things back then, causing Xiao Ge great suffering.

Although the young man also benefited from this, Zhang Qishan also contributed to his unexpected immortality.

Of course, before rescuing the young man from the Germu Sanatorium, he must have suffered extremely inhumane torture.

It's just that in those days, dissections weren't common practice in China; otherwise, the young man might have really been in serious trouble.

No… or rather, I can't bear to part with it…

"...Just kidding, I just want to go see...Zhang Qishan did a lot of things that wronged me, even if he's dead, it would be good to see him."

The young man was silent for a few seconds before speaking calmly.

When people die, grudges are settled; this guy has always been the kind of person who's decisive and efficient.

As he said, he just wanted to take a look; it wasn't about worshipping anyone, just a little bit of human touch. The guy, on the other hand, probably went to show off, right?
Basically, it's like saying, "You son of a bitch, you're dead, but I'm still alive and well, aren't you angry? Aren't you angry?"
If you're angry, then jump out of your coffin and come at me!
Of course, this is just Hu Ming's imagination; who can fathom what the young man is thinking?
"Forget it, let's go. Nanfeng, calm down. Trust me, I wouldn't do something so tasteless."

Hu Ming pulled Nanfeng, who was still warily looking at the young man, out the door and into the car.

Eleven Warehouse is located on the outskirts of Hangzhou, on the other side of the city. Even without traffic, it took nearly two hours to reach it after exiting the ring expressway. From the outside, Eleven Warehouse, nestled deep in the mountains, looks like nothing more than a dilapidated warehouse.

However, the secrets of Warehouse Eleven lie deep underground; what's above ground is merely a cover.

Standing in front of the warehouse, he wore a white shirt and a dark green uniform—all men's clothing—and had shoulder-length short hair, looking every bit the tomboy.

But when the girl smiles, she exudes a sweet and cloying charm.

If you didn't know this girl at least a little, anyone who met her for the first time would probably think she was just a naive and innocent girl, right?
This is Bai Haotian, the secret head of Warehouse Eleven.

Now, at the behest of Wu Erbai and his family, she is concealing her identity. At this moment, she only wears a simple badge with the number 17 on her left chest, symbolizing her status.

Bai Jiatian is one of the peripheral vassal families of the Nine Gates, belonging only to the Wu family, and Wu Erbai is currently the person directly in charge.

Bai Haotian is the most outstanding young member of the Bai family. After graduating from university, he immediately concealed his identity and entered the Eleventh Warehouse.

"Second Master, Second Master, over here!"

Just like an innocent and naive girl, Bai Haotian laughed so hard that her gums were showing, showing absolutely no ladylike manners.

"..."

Hu Ming's lips twitched, unsure of what to say.

This girl is complicated; you can't tell whether her behavior is just a facade or if this is just her true nature.
"Second Master, I am Bai Haotian, in charge of monitoring the Eleventh Warehouse. I am currently at number 17. Second Master Wu told me in advance to come and pick you up."

Seeing that Hu Ming didn't make a move, Bai Haotian wasn't annoyed. He ran straight over, leaned against the car door, and excitedly greeted Hu Ming.

"And Miss Yin, Zhang Qiling, welcome to Warehouse Eleven!"

Finally, I took the opportunity to say hello to Brother Yin Nanfeng.

"...I remember you were here when I came last year, but you weren't this enthusiastic then, you were all very businesslike."

Yin Nanfeng recalled the scene from last year.

"Last year? I forgot!"

Bai Haotian was pretending to be stupid. He opened the car door, pushed Hu Ming inside, and got in himself, while signaling the gatekeeper to let them through.

"Speaking of which, Second Master, you and Zhang Qiling are both here, but where are the young master and third master of the Wu family? Why aren't we seeing them?"

"Aren't the four of you, plus that fat guy, inseparable?"

A pair of large eyes swept over the young man in the passenger seat, ignoring Yin Nanfeng, with an air of curiosity.

"So, you're being so enthusiastic towards me only because of Wu Xie? Are you Wu Xie's little fangirl?"

Hu Ming joked.

"I guess so..."

Bai Haotian's expression remained unchanged as he stammered, occasionally glancing curiously at Yin Nanfeng.

God knows what this girl is up to!
