From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life
Chapter 46: Ancestors I Have Never Met
As the manager of the railroad company's downtown office, Walton was considered a successful office worker.
He has his own house in Midtown and takes the train to downtown to work every morning. Although he doesn't like the environment and rude people in downtown, the generous salary is enough to keep him going.
Except when there was special "cargo" to be delivered, Wharton could go home before dark to enjoy the sumptuous dinner prepared by his wife. However, today was Winter Festival, and as the person in charge, Wharton needed to stay at his post and wait until that damn parade arrived at the company.
At the same time, we received a sudden news last night that a batch of "high-end cargo" will flow to its destination via the track tonight.
Walton sighed, thinking that he would have to deal with those barbarians again tonight.
When the clock in the downtown area struck six in the evening, the parade team arrived at the company on time.
Tian Yu has been running around in Silver Moon City all day, and now is the tenth hour since the two siblings disappeared.
The train pulled into the platform. On the coldest day in Silvermoon City, darkness had enveloped the city. The parade team got off the train in a mighty procession. Tian Yuzhui was at the end of the team. She silently put on her coat and hid in the darkness of the platform. The map of the railway company had been engraved in her mind.
Walton picked up his coat from his office and prepared to go to the platform to do a pre-shipment inspection for tonight.
As soon as he turned the corner of the office door, a huge force rushed in from outside. Before he could scream, something was stuffed into his mouth.
Wharton sat in his office chair in horror, staring at the man in front of him wearing a funny clown mask. He was tied to the chair, unable to make a sound or move. The mask on the man's face had a weird grin on it, which was particularly eerie in the silent office at this moment.
"I ask you questions and you answer them. You have ten fingers to spare." A gloomy voice came from under the mask, like a fatal spell.
Wharton nodded vigorously. He had no doubt that the person in front of him was joking with him.
"Next I will take the thing off your mouth. I don't like people who are impolite." Tian Yu took out a dagger and played with it. "If you make a decibel that I hate, your tongue will appear on Winnie's dining table."
Winnie was the name of Wharton's beautiful wife, and fear spread in Wharton's heart.
"Come on," Tian Yu took the cloth from Walton's mouth, "Is there anything special happening tonight?"
"Tonight," Wharton swallowed, "tonight I need to check the decorated floats of the parade--" Before he could finish his words, Wharton's mouth was blocked again.
"Mistake." Tian Yu squatted down and looked at Wharton, then swung the dagger neatly and a finger landed on the ground.
Wharton screamed, but the cloth on his mouth muffled it.
"You'd better calm down, we'll continue soon." Tian Yu's expression behind the mask was calm. She knew that Wharton would have the answer she wanted. This manager of the downtown platform was not an innocent good man.
......
The clock in Wharton's office rang, and it was now 7:30 in the evening. Tian Yu walked out of the office, and behind her was Wharton, who was lying quietly on the ground.
In a sense, this manager was a tough guy because he didn't sell out his company until he lost three fingers.
Tian Yu had a headache. Tonight's hustle and bustle was about to begin again. Next, she would need to use unconventional means to hire a driver who could drive a tram. The goods that Wharton was to receive tonight were waiting at the Xicheng District Trading Company.
For the first time, the driver felt that the distance between the two stops and the trading company was so long. Behind him, a mysterious man wearing a mask with a weird smile was staring at him. Even without turning around, he could feel the terrifying gaze.
Swallowing his saliva, he decided to resign from the company tomorrow, but he had no intention of reporting to the guards because the evil spirit broke the neck of the driver who was waiting for Manager Wharton on the train in front of him.
Fear and the gold coins thrown by the other party motivated him to drive the train to its destination.
"We've arrived at Daren." The driver stopped the train and said with his back to Tian Yu, trembling a little.
Tian Yu got off the bus silently. The driver didn't dare to look back until five or six minutes had passed. Then he jumped off the bus directly and ran home without looking back.
"Rant Trading Company..." Tian Yu looked at the sign in front of him and walked up the stairs.
It was already time to get off work and the company door was closed. Tian Yu cut the door lock with a sword and walked in easily.
The first floor of the trading company was no longer bustling with people during the day. Tian Yu walked in the empty hall, which almost blended into the darkness at night. The entire company had only three floors, and at this moment it was completely empty, just like an ordinary company after get off work.
Tian Yu walked into the back office on the top floor and twisted the items on the bookshelf as Walter instructed. A secret door slowly opened, revealing a dark staircase.
He walked in. Tian Yu's footsteps were almost inaudible as he was sneaking forward. After walking about one floor, the view in front of him suddenly became clear and even the light became brighter.
At the end of the stairs is a hall where people come and go. Some ordinary-looking staff and many people who look like thugs are busy checking information.
In Silvermoon City, human trafficking has become a procedural business.
Tian Yu, who was standing in the shadow of the stairs, seemed to be clearly separated from the people in the bright hall. Taking a deep breath, Tian Yu held the knight's sword that had accompanied her all the way to Silvermoon City, with the emblem of the Knight of Light shining brightly on it.
A figure appeared unobstructed at the stairs, attracting the attention of everyone in the hall.
The thugs who were originally on guard suddenly became stern. The man was wearing a funny laughing mask on his face and holding a sword in his hand. He looked weird and sinister.
"Someone breaks in!" a thug shouted, and then the ordinary employees fled in all directions, and the thugs pounced on Tian Yu.
Tian Yu moved his wrist slightly and killed the thugs without hesitation. In front of ordinary people, the Ascended were like gods. Wherever the sword flashed, a trail of blood would be left. The originally bright hall suddenly became like purgatory.
The commander in the fight looked at the newcomer as if he were a devil, and each of his sword strikes went straight to the vital points. The opponent advanced without any obstacles, and anyone who blocked his way would fall under his sword. Her destination was the position she was guarding - the stairs to the lower level.
Even though he had been rampant in the Lower Town for many years, it was the first time that the boss of the thugs encountered such a bloody and violent scene. The opponents were covered in blood, but it all came from others. His own men, some dead or alive, were lying in disorder on the road he passed by, until no one dared to stop him from moving forward.
"Who are you?" The frightened thug asked tremblingly as he stood at the stairs. The blood on the ground and the person lying on the ground wailing behind him made him unable to muster the slightest thought of resisting.
"The ancestor you have never met." With a wave of the sword, the thug slowly fell down and smashed into the spacious stairs behind him.
