"Click..."

Lu Dongjie opened the door with the key, and a black shadow suddenly appeared from the stairs.

He took a closer look and said angrily: "Are you here to pretend to be a ghost in the middle of the night and scare people?"

Chen Yulian looked a little embarrassed and hesitantly said: "I..."

Lu Dongjie glanced at her, opened the door and went in, "If you have anything to say, come in and talk about it."

Chen Yulian followed him in blankly, feeling completely lost and worried.

Lu Dongjie took out two Cokes from the refrigerator and handed one to her, "Let's drink a soda first."

Chen Yulian took it blankly, her hands were shaking and her lips changed color.

Lu Dongjie sat opposite her and looked at her seriously, "What's wrong with you?"

Chen Yulian looked at Lu Dongjie and hesitated to speak, and finally couldn't help but burst into tears.

Her body immediately softened, she covered her face with her hands, fell on her legs and sobbed.

Suddenly, she became like a helpless child.

Lu Dongjie felt helpless and quickly stood up and sat next to her.

He gently touched her shoulder and asked with a smile: "What do you need? Let me see if I can help you."

Chen Yulian raised her tearful eyes and said nervously: "Brother Dong, something happened to me."

"Aren't you fine now?" Lu Dongjie wiped her tears and shook his head with a smile, "What's the matter?"

Chen Yulian held his hand with a hint of panic, "They are looking for me everywhere now. I don't dare to go back."

"Them?" Lu Dongjie turned his head and looked at her intently, "Who are they?"

"It's my fellow villagers Xiaoli and Azhen's employers who came to visit." Chen Yulian lowered her head and added, "I will stay with them temporarily during this period."

Lu Dongjie nodded and continued to ask her: "What trouble did your friend encounter again?"

Chen Yulian opened her mouth and told the truth, "They joined a tour group to help their employer carry goods, and now they are missing. They suspect that they embezzled the goods."

Lu Dongjie's expression became serious, and he looked directly at her slightly sulkily, "Smuggled goods?"

Chen Yulian trembled and her voice gradually lowered, "I didn't know they did that kind of thing before."

When she met Lu Dongjie's eyes, she felt both scared and aggrieved.

Not only was she afraid that he would misunderstand that she was also involved in this kind of business, but she was also aggrieved that he didn't believe her.

After a while, Chen Yulian raised her head again and said, "The two of them have disappeared, and now they have no choice but to look for me."

She couldn't help but shudder slightly when she thought of the brutality of that group of people.

Lu Dongjie hugged her and spoke softly, "Why does your friend's matter involve you again?"

Chen Yulian looked up at him, then lowered her head, "I..."

When Lu Dongjie saw her look, he probably guessed something.

This little girl is too young and ignorant. She must be talking about loyal sisters and guaranteeing for others randomly.

Lu Dongjie pondered for a while, then looked at her sideways, "Where do they usually meet for delivery?"

Chen Yulian bit her lip and struggled to spit out a few words, "In Kowloon City."

Lu Dongjie was startled, and after a while he couldn't say anything.

He began to pace in the living room, as if thinking about something.

Regardless of interrupting him rashly, Chen Yulian could only wait nervously for his reply.

Seeing the panic in Chen Yulian's big eyes, Lu Dongjie felt soft for a moment and could only shake his head and smile.

He glanced at the clock on the wall and waved to her, "Let's go."

"Where to go?" Chen Yulian asked subconsciously.

"Don't ask anything, just follow." Lu Dongjie shook his head slightly.

He took his coat and went out, with Chen Yulian following closely behind him.

Lu Dongjie took her out, and the two of them were silent all the way.

About ten minutes later, Lu Dongjie parked his car on Dongtou Village Road.

It was already past eleven o'clock at night, and the hustle and bustle of the day had quieted down.

The two of them stood on the street and looked up.

Kowloon City, a smoky place.

This dark city makes people's faces change after hearing about it, but they also feel mysterious in their hearts.

If you install LED lights on this walled city, it will become a city with cyberpunk elements.

Kowloon City is a three-no-no zone. The Hong Kong government does not dare to control it, the British government does not want to control it, and China cannot control it.

But the ownership of Kowloon Walled City is indisputable.

It is not within the scope of the lease. It is an enclave of China within Hong Kong.

As long as you see the existence of Kowloon City, you have to admit that this is Chinese territory.

This is the historical significance of its existence.

Chen Yulian clearly wanted to say something, but couldn't speak, so she had to hold his arm tightly.

The notoriety of the Kowloon Walled City was such that even a little girl like her, who was inexperienced in the world, could not avoid it.

Although the Kowloon Walled City and Tiu Keng Leng are both Sangui zones, they are completely different.

This walled city complex with an area of ​​only six and a half acres is densely packed with buildings and has never seen the light of day.

Dozens of streets and alleys criss-cross here, like a maze with nine twists and turns.

It looks more like a movie set than ever before, and all the sinful elements needed for movies seem to be found here.

Lu Dongjie took the flashlight and looked up, "Have you been here?"

Chen Yulian closed her mouth tightly and shook her head.

Lu Dongjie raised his head and sighed, "There are many good and law-abiding people here. You should not be prejudiced against it."

"This place is really shabby and the environment is worse than ours." Chen Yulian wrinkled her nose.

Lu Dongjie smiled, "But it has also taken in many suffering people and brought them a moment of respite."

Chen Yulian had no way to argue, because what he said was all the truth.

The Hong Kong government has no jurisdiction over affairs here, and residents here do not have to pay various rates, local taxes, stamps and other exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes.

Even many transactions do not need to go through a law firm, it has its own set of operating rules.

Lu Dongjie knelt down and patted his shoulder, "Come up."

"Huh?" Chen Yulian was startled and looked at him blankly, "What are you doing?"

Lu Dongjie turned around and gave her a funny look, "Just don't make a fuss if you step on a snake, insect, rat or ant."

"You look down on people." Chen Yulian muttered in a low voice.

Still feeling a little shy, she climbed onto his generous back.

The night is getting darker and the wind is howling

There is an open area near the west tower of the walled city, and the wind is a bit strong at night.

The wires in the alleyway kept swaying in the wind, and the light bulbs were also swaying, making it appear bright or dark in a strange way.

The ruins and tiles passing before my eyes were like walking through a deep dark hole, filled with ghosts and shadows.

This scene is used for filming ghost movies, and there is no need for a set.

Chen Yulian lay on his shoulder, but felt an unprecedented sense of security in her heart.

He is as calm as a mountain, making people feel at ease hiding under his protective wings.

The first thing she thought of after the accident was him, even if she foolishly waited at his door all night.

She knew this, and if she couldn't deal with him, she would have no choice but to hide back to Tiu Keng Ling in despair.

This dark and narrow street has water pipes and electric wires on top and garbage and sewage below.

Chen Yulian wrinkled her nose from time to time, or simply buried her entire face on his back.

On the contrary, Lu Dongjie was as calm as walking on flat ground.

The further you go inside, the less air circulates, and a rotten smell gradually develops.

The two finally stopped at a small building, and the small terrace in front of the door could smell the fresh fragrance of flowers.

Lu Dongjie raised his hand, with a bit of hesitation on his face.

In Chen Yulian's impression, he has always been a person who hides his secrets and looks calm.
