Tomb Raider: What kind of heroine is she?

"This isn't where you're going, is it?"

When the young man heard Zhang Haike's question, he turned around and stared at him with his dark eyes without saying anything. But sometimes, silence is also an answer.

"So where are you going after that?"

Zhang Haike, who already understood something, revealed a hint of concern and curiosity in his eyes.

This time the young man did not remain silent as usual, but looked particularly calm, as if he had already made the decision, and then said four words.

“Sizhou Ancient City.”

What! Zhang Haike was shocked by the young man's answer. He widened his eyes and looked shocked. This was an answer he had never expected. This name is well-known to the Zhang family! But few people would mention it.

After all, everyone knows that this mysterious and ancient Sizhou Ancient City hides too many unknown secrets and dangers. It is like a forbidden place, which makes people afraid to go there. It is also because no one has ever walked out of it alive.

Zhang Haike frowned slightly, thinking to himself: Why go to this place? Is it the younger brother who wants to go or is there someone else who wants him to go?

At this moment, familiar yet unfamiliar faces began to flash in Zhang Haike's mind - they were the elders of the Zhang family. Their faces were churning and changing in the ocean of thoughts, and Zhang Haike felt a sense of destiny being carried forward in the young man.

As a friend, Zhang Haike wanted to persuade the young man, but before he opened his mouth, the young man seemed to understand what he was thinking and spoke directly.

"It's me who needs it, and the Zhang family needs it too."

"What about the saint?"

Zhang Haike was filled with doubts and worries, thinking: Do the saints know about this? Given how much the saints care about me, will they agree to let me go? And what should the saints do next?

With a loud bang, the door that was originally tightly closed was kicked open! At this moment, a figure quietly appeared at the door. Ah San's face was full of anger, his eyes were burning with rage, he stared at the two people in the room and questioned them.

"Yeah, what about that idiot? He's going to be fooled again."

When did he come here? How much conversation did he hear? No one knows.

With this sudden change, the atmosphere in the room instantly became tense. Zhang Haike was stunned. He didn't expect Ah San to come back. However, at the same time, the young man was unusually calm and even asked back with a hint of doubt.

"What else? Should we take her to such a dangerous place?"

At that moment, the two of them seemed to be under a spell. Yes, even if he didn't want to deceive her, it was better than letting her know and run away to die.

Zhang Haike stared at the unusually calm and clear-minded young man in front of him, and suddenly a strong intuition surged in his heart - everything seemed to be under the control of the young man, as if he had carefully planned it in advance. However, it always felt like something was missing? Zhang Haike couldn't help but fall into deep thought and subconsciously touched his chin.

Backhand! That's right, there is a lack of a backhand. In other words, there is a lack of a protective measure. Judging from the importance that the young man has for the saint, he will definitely arrange some safeguards for her. Thinking of this, his eyes can't help but look at Ah San.

No, that's not right. Ah San's meeting with them was an accident, which was obviously an uncontrollable variable. Then I'm the only one left. Thinking of this, Zhang Haike shuddered, and the hairs on his body stood up.

He simply couldn't imagine how he would react if he was with the saint who was so eloquent. Just thinking about it made him feel suffocated. He couldn't handle it. He couldn't scold her, and he didn't dare to hit her. Not to mention that she asked him to protect the little brother. If he still had the guts to deceive her, the consequences would be unimaginable... No, he absolutely couldn't take on this hot potato.

This is also a great opportunity to prove himself. As the saying goes, "The brave will die of overeating, and the timid will die of starvation." Besides, the young man is so good at fighting, which is definitely a big help. He must seize this opportunity.

"I'll go as well."

But it was obvious that Zhang Haike's decision was completely contrary to the young man's plan. Of course, the young man thought it was not a good idea, so he spoke up to stop him.

"No, it's too dangerous there, and someone needs to protect Zhang Xingxing."

"Ah San. Maybe it was destiny that he met the Saint. It would be great if he could protect the Saint and bring her back to the Zhang family."

On one side, Ah San didn't expect such a good thing to fall from the sky, and the corners of his mouth immediately rose, nodding to indicate that he could take care of and protect the saint. On the other side, Zhang Haike also pointed at Ah San and shouted very firmly. The little brother also knew that he couldn't persuade him at this time, so he had to give up.

Forget it, let's wait until the danger comes before persuading Zhang Haike. After all, the young man knows that Zhang Haike is a sensible person, and his selfishness will help him make the choice in the end.

So, the three people in the room finally reached a confidentiality agreement to keep the matter a secret from Zhang Xingxing.
