Chapter 722: 426. Extraordinarily lively_2
No one got off the train.
This represented a legitimate and powerful Time Traveler Organization, in stark contrast with those time travelers who were just here for fun.
âBy the way, why havenât I heard about Daylight attending the Federation?â Tuan Zi wondered, âRed Leaves and the Matrix are already here, where are the people from Daylight? Isnât Daylight closer to Zheng City?â
âCould it be they donât plan to participate? Or maybe Kunlun didnât invite them?â one companion asked.
âNo way, given Daylightâs influence in the Inner World, how could Kunlun not invite them,â Sun Chu Ci said, âDaylight has always been low-key. The Matrix and Red Leaves had already publicly announced their establishments, but it was only after involving themselves in several matters that Daylight gradually became known to a few. I dare say, even now, a large number of time travelers in the country havenât heard of Daylight; we only know because Zheng City and Los Angeles City are nearby. They must have already arrived; they just havenât made a show like the Matrix and Red Leaves.â
âWhat other Time Traveler Organizations have arrived?â Tuan Zi browsed the news.
Sun Chu Ci said, âKunchengâs âRed Umbrellaâ organization, Zhongchengâs âPao Geâ, Zheng Cityâs âLonghu Communeâ, Wuchengâs âSanjiangkouâ, they all have arrived.â
âItâs said that the âRed Umbrellaâ organization even brought a lot of local mushroom products from Kuncheng, as gifts for other time travelers,â Tuan Zi said. âSomeone in He Xiaoxiaoâs group mentioned that a time traveler had the hotel kitchen cook them, and after eating, they started hitting effigies in the hotel lobby.â
This incident had already turned into a joke.
Another time traveler was shivering in the hotel restaurant; when someone asked him what was wrong, he said there was a dragon on the ceiling.
Qing Chen thought to himself that this âRed Umbrellaâ must be doing this on purposeâŠ
Can these mushrooms just be gifted casually? If the mushrooms from Kuncheng arenât properly cooked, they can cause strong hallucinogenic effects; probably a lot of time travelers at the conference center were going to suffer.
Is this what they call coming to a conference? Itâs more like poisoningâŠ
Time travelers did not become time travelers voluntarily; most of them just woke up one night to find a countdown mysteriously appearing on their arms.
So, when Kunlun gathered everyone together, all kinds of strange things happened.
The train arrived at the station, everyone grabbed their things and got off, but Qing Chen walked out alone, carrying just a small bag.
At the exit, he suddenly saw the weathered-faced Ergou smiling broadly, standing at the exit holding a sign with Qing Chenâs name on it.
Below the big characters were two small ones: Kunlun.
When this intelligence officer smiled, the wrinkles on his face resembled a blooming chrysanthemum.
Ergou was no longer young, wearing a pair of plain black cloth shoes.
Qing Chen pretended not to see him and continued walking out.
He thought to himself, Kunlun must have checked his travel information, knowing he was coming to Zheng City by this train, and had specifically sent Ergou, the intelligence officer, to pick him up!
Could it be that he was already on Kunlunâs watch list? As soon as he took public transport from Los Angeles City, the system would automatically notify Kunlun?
What does this mean?
At that moment, Sun Chu Ci and others also came out behind him; they were stunned when they saw the sign Ergou was holding: âWait, was Qing Chen on our train just now?â
âThere werenât many people getting off; I didnât see him,â Sun Chu Ci said, puzzled.
He couldnât help but step forward to ask Ergou, âHello, the Qing Chen that you are picking up, is he the one from Daylight?â
Ergou responded with a smile, âIndeed he is.â
Tuan Zi sighed, âIsnât it said that Kunlun doesnât pick up time travelers? It looks like everyone else made their own way here.â
People thought to themselves, so Daylight has such a special status that Kunlun had to arrange someone to pick them up?
Sun Chu Ci curiously asked, âIs this the VIP treatment?â
Ergou responded with a smile, âYes, this is the VIP treatment.â
Sun Chu Ci and the others were amazed; Daylightâs status really was that high!
Qing Chen felt very strange; he messaged Zheng Yuandong asking, âDid you guys mark my ID or something? How do you know about me taking the train as soon as it happens?â
Zheng Yuandong: âYes.â
Qing Chen was puzzled: âBut thereâs no need to specifically pick me up alone, right? I see no one picking up other time travelers; isnât it a bit improper to treat me so specially?â
Zheng Yuandong: âYouâre overthinking. We just wanted to get you directly to the conference center, to save you from causing trouble for other time travelers in Zheng City.â
Qing Chen: â???â
So thatâs what it was!
He had thought that after stirring up some trouble in Europe, Kunlun wanted to show goodwill, thus they elevated his treatment.
Turns out, it was to protect other time travelers!?
Qing Chen: âThatâs a bit much, isnât it?â
Zheng Yuandong: âAsk yourself, is what we are doing really too much?â
Qing Chen pondered for a while but had no rebuttal.
Zheng Yuandong: âHurry up and come to the conference center, donât wander off.â
Qing Chen: âIâm not in a hurry to go to the conference center yet, Iâll explore the city first.â
Apparently, Zheng Yuandong had just informed Ergou that Qing Chen had exited the station.
Thus, Ergou, holding the sign, was quickly searching for Qing Chenâs presence in Zheng City West StationâŠ
Sun Chu Ci and others saw this scene and thought, was Qing Chen really on the same train as them?
They looked at each other bewildered, but they really hadnât seen him!
