Chapter 203

July 30, 9:00 AM, when Ning Zhe was still sleeping in the hotel.

A huge airship stopped quietly on the roof of the Yunding Building.

The word airship is relatively sci-fi, but it has a more popular name that is widely circulated—hot air balloon. In the 1940s and 1950s, mature large passenger aircraft technology had not yet been conceived, and airships were one of the most mainstream aviation methods for humans.

Airships have many advantages as a means of transportation: cheap lift, large load capacity, stable flight, near-infinite range, continuous suspension without fuel consumption, and no high demand for power...

The disadvantages of airships are also obvious: insufficient safety.

Early airships relied on hydrogen to provide buoyancy, which is a very unstable and dangerous gas. Once bumped, it is easy to explode and burn, causing tragedy.

The world's largest and most famous airship, the Hindenburg, was destroyed in an explosion accident, causing the deaths of at least 35 passengers.

After this incident, countries around the world were terrified of airships and avoided them. The development direction of the aviation technology tree also shifted from airships to large passenger aircraft, eventually leading to the current aviation traffic situation where large passenger aircraft are the absolute main force.

Even with the development of technology, the new type of airship using helium has completely eliminated the flammable and explosive problems of old hydrogen airships, but the explosion of the Hindenburg, the world's largest airship, completely shattered people's trust in this means of transportation. Even the famous Empire State Building in the United States abandoned the plan to use the top floor of the building for mooring airships.

Until today, airships are still extremely rare in aviation traffic, but at this moment, an airship is parked over Yundu.

Yunding Building is the second tallest building in Yundu, the first is the Patra Shopping Mall, which is called the Cornucopia by locals.

The airship parked on the top of the building is very large. The oval air bag, about 200 meters long, is placed flat on the top of the building, looking like a brown olive placed on a silver iron rod, with a huge 'o' logo on the olive.

Liu Lixian held her son with her left hand and her daughter with her right hand, and walked hurriedly into the elevator leading to the top floor of the building with her husband.

"We have to leave immediately. All flights in Yundu are controlled by Seeing Lan Shiwen's eyes and ears. That lunatic is said to be able to predict the future. He may already know that we intend to escape by airship..." Liu Lixian's face was anxious, and her legs couldn't help trembling.

She is a person who loves beauty very much. Whether outside or at home, she likes to wear gorgeously decorated designer high heels. However, today she wore cheap sports shoes bought by bodyguards for the first time, just to run as fast as possible, even if it was just a little bit.

Just last night, her cousin Liu Zaixi's family of 8 died neatly in his villa by the Yunmengze Lake.

Seeing Lan Shiwen's method was neat and precise, without involving any extra people. In the villa, whether it was the nanny, the gardener, or even the pet crow in the cage, not a single hair fell off. Only her cousin Liu Zaixi's family of 8 sat neatly on the long sofa in the living room on the first floor of the villa, sitting neatly, as if watching TV happily.

It wasn't until 6 o'clock this morning when the nanny got up to prepare breakfast that their already cooled corpses were discovered.

There were no traces of damage to the doors and windows, the surveillance did not capture any suspicious people, and there were no extra wounds on the deceased, only a thin hole pierced through the left eye socket of each of them, stirring the brains in their cranial cavities into brain flowers.

Liu Lixian's shoulders trembled slightly, her bloodshot eyes staring fixedly at the changing elevator floor numbers on the display screen, biting her teeth and praying that it could rise faster and faster...

"Darling, I really don't understand why we have to leave so hurriedly."

The man's voice came from behind. It was her husband, an Australian with flaxen hair and green eyes. Their family originally settled abroad, and they rushed back to the country recently after receiving the news that the old man was critically ill.

I didn't expect that after this trip home, it would be as difficult as going to heaven to go out again.

"Because a lunatic is hunting us!" Liu Lixian gritted her teeth: "We have to go, we have to go immediately, go as far as possible, go to Australia... no, go further, as far away from this damn city as possible! I will never return here again in my life, not even a step..."

Having lived in Australia for a long time, she unknowingly picked up the habits of the locals. "Is it a serial killer? A perverted murderer?" Her husband couldn't understand what she meant: "If that's the case, you don't have to be so panicked, darling. We pay those bodyguards, they should protect our safety."

"No, you don't understand anything... That person, that person is not an ordinary killer, he is... he is..."

Liu Lixian's lips were pale, and her eyes were full of fear: "He is... God."

Even though she was born in the Liu family, her understanding of the strange world and Gridders was very limited. The true core information would not be revealed to non-core members like her who married abroad. Liu Lixian knew a little about the terror of Gridders, but not much.

Ding—

The elevator door opened. After exiting the elevator, walk up one more floor to reach the top floor where the airship is moored. Professional bodyguards fully armed have blocked every floor of the Yunding Building, and the people who came to meet them have been waiting on the top floor for a long time.

"Go! We don't have time!" Liu Lixian hugged her young daughter in her arms and climbed up the carpeted stairs in a panic.

Walking out for a while, she didn't hear the footsteps of her husband and son following from behind.

"No, no, don't..."

Liu Lixian looked back with tears, and saw two corpses lying on the ground, bright red blood flowing from their left eye sockets, dyeing half of their faces bright red.

"Let me go, let me go... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, if I did anything to be sorry for you, I'm really sorry, I apologize, I can apologize, I can compensate... Let me go..."

Liu Lixian cried and sobbed, her daughter in her arms looked at her mother's tearful appearance at a loss, and when she turned her head, her father and brother who had already died came into view.

So the daughter also cried.

"You didn't do anything to be sorry for me."

Seeing Lan Shiwen said: "And I don't know you."

Crossing the armed blockade that held every floor of the Yunding Building tightly, he appeared here, like a ghost.

"Let... let me go..." Liu Lixian hugged her daughter tightly and begged softly: "I didn't do anything to be sorry for you, did I? I went abroad to study after graduating from high school. I didn't get involved in anything in the country, anything strange. I'm just an ordinary person..."

"Yes, you are an ordinary person, an ordinary person who has never committed any great crime." Seeing Lan Shiwen raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a gentle and elegant smile: "But your surname is Liu."

When the emperor commits a crime, the nine generations are implicated.

When an official commits a crime, the five degrees of mourning are slaughtered.

This is Seeing Lan Shiwen's life creed, and it is also the philosophy of life he has upheld until now. People like him are extreme and radical, taking persistence more seriously than their own lives. If he cannot practice his philosophy within his power, he cannot imagine how to live the rest of his life.

"So, go on the road." Seeing Lan Shiwen smiled.
