If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon.

Like a huge boulder rolling down from the top of a mountain, the shadow in the sky covered the lake, getting bigger and bigger. Finally, with a loud bang, all the floating algae, swimming fish, and lake water were lifted up, and the waves and ripples spread to the shore. At the feet of anglers.

Miss Ge was the first to not sit still. She stood up and looked at Shao Nanyin, staring at the pair of pale golden pupils. She used the light to carefully observe the pair of golden pupils that represented class and bloodline. , after a flicker of polarized light flashed in her pupils, she slapped the pile of chips in front of her on the table, and the chips spilled all over the gambling table.

Willie Weier also stared at Shao Nanyin intently, and after a long time he lowered his eyes silently: "What a ghost."

The chip in Lin Nian's hand was lightly pressed to pieces. The half-broken chip fell on the gambling table, bounced up, and fell again. He put down the half-broken chip in his hand and gently pushed it forward: "When did it happen?" ?”

Shao Nanyin. If you still insist on calling her by this name.

But everyone knows that the girl sitting behind the gambling table is no longer Shao Nanyin. She is not the dragon species that the UII team has set up to wait for, nor is she the old friend Lin Nian is pursuing.

The calmness that had always appeared on Shao Nanqin's face as he sat behind the gambling table finally gradually disappeared, replaced by relief. From this moment on, she took off her disguise, just like taking off her dress with roses and gold powder, revealing Cinderella in plain clothes underneath, a simple and simple girl named Shao Nanqin.

She is Shao Nanqin, and she is just Shao Nanqin.

She looked up at the incandescent chandelier and thought for a long time before she said, "I don't know if you still remember, but actually a long time ago, I was alone in that orphanage. I was not with Nanyin. Sent to an orphanage, I’ve always known this.”

Lin Nian paused slightly, because what Shao Nanyin said was something he didn't know. When he came to the orphanage, Shao Nanyin and Shao Nanqin were already there, in pairs. He never knew Long ago, they weren't always together, but there was a girl who didn't know anything, wandering alone in that big house.

"Shall I tell you a story? Lin Nian." Shao Nanqin looked at Lin Nian and said.

"She's stalling for time." Su Xiaoqiang walked behind Lin Nian and whispered.

"I know." Lin Nian said. He looked at Shao Nanqin and said, "But I want to know why."

"Before she was about two or three years old, there was a girl in that big house. The things she was most afraid of were thunder and nightmares. Thunder would scare her so much that she would not sleep and cry loudly. She would wet the bed if she had nightmares. No matter what she did, If you do something, you will be punished with having your palms slapped and standing under the eaves the next day." Shao Nanqin said.

"It was a coincidence that the day Nanyin came to see the little girl happened to coincide with thunder and nightmares. The little girl made a lot of noise that night. The aunt who was woken up late at night became angry and beat the little girl. The palm of my hand made me stand under the eaves of the heavy rain. When I stop crying, she can go back to sleep."

"To be honest, that girl was still young at that time and didn't understand what life was. But the girl in pajamas stood under the eaves and looked at the endless heavy rain. She felt in her heart that if life was like that, she might as well die. She She heard people say that if you get exposed to a lot of rain, you will get a fever and you will die if you get a fever, so she mustered up the courage and took a step outside. That was when she saw Nanyin for the first time."

"What the little girl first saw was a white, shimmering child. The shimmer was because she had thin white scales and horn-like protrusions on her forehead."

"She came out of the heavy rain, smiling and dancing around the girl under the eaves, like an elf. The little girl was not afraid of her and danced with her. Afterwards, she wiped the rain off the little girl's face and told her not to cry. He said that he would be with her in the future, and asked her, would it be okay if she would also always be with him?"

The cold and gentle story was narrated by people walking slowly in the dark container alley with the crisp sound of high heels.

As a listener, Lu Mingfei stood under the light at the entrance of the container lane, holding the mobile phone whose signal was inexplicably interrupted, watching the golden eyes that lit up in the darkness like gas lamps slowly walking out.

"Hello, Lu Mingfei." Shao Nanyin greeted politely.

Lu Mingfei heard the girl speaking with a strange hissing sound, like a snake, or like a chaotic current signal like a bad TV signal. The chandelier above his head was flashing with an unsettling frequency, casting that The shadow behind the girl is sometimes a delicate and beautiful girl, sometimes a frightening giant.

The blood-red data flow refreshed on the other party's shoulder, but Lu Mingfei did not take a second look, because when he opened the container and moved in to lift the woman, he already understood the other party's identity. From then on, he has been very Nervous, trying hard to stay calm and trying to convey information to the outside world, but it was obvious that the other party also noticed this and stopped pretending.

"It's just that the little girl was still young at that time and couldn't speak easily. She just nodded to the elf-like girl's request. But it's interesting to say that if it was an oral contract, then under the eaves of the heavy rain That contract has already been established." Shao Nanyin looked at Lu Mingfei, who was stiff and holding a cell phone that had lost communication, and said, "Now it's you who made this contract have to be torn up in the middle."

"But I clearly saw you get on that ship." Lu Mingfei's voice was a little difficult to speak. It may be due to psychological factors, or it may be because when Shao Nanyin walked out of the darkness step by step, as her face was exposed to the light, it belonged to The pressure of pure blood dragons also stretched out tentacles from the shadows to occupy this space.

"Yes, the person you saw on the speedboat was indeed me, and I did get on that boat. It was a great party, wasn't it? You guys took such pains to prepare such a perfect dragnet for me. Of course I can't break the promise. There's nothing wrong with it. It makes people more relaxed than a prisoner who steps into the cage on his own initiative." Shao Nanyin walked out of the darkness of the container area and was bathed in the white light of the tower crane. Her eyes seemed to be filled with molten gold. , so beautiful but also full of alien horror.

In those smiling golden eyes, the boy who saw through his disguise was so frightened, like a sheep that wanted to plunge its head into the wool of its companion, but there was no companion in this empty port area. It relied on him, and he could only stand there helplessly, calling out "baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa".

"." In Lu Mingfei's eyes, Shao Nanyin's clothes were so familiar. The white chandelier shone on her body, illuminating the light pink evening dress of pearlescent silver-gray fabric like moonlight. The pair of The crystal high heels are also what I remember walking on the red carpet when boarding the ship.

Yes, he was not mistaken. It was indeed Shao Nanyin who boarded the 'Anthem'. The contact with Vile Vika fascinated him so much that he could not find Bei. It was also Shao Nanyin who took the initiative to lead people to the fourth floor. He won the Of course it was Shao Nanyin who raised tens of millions of chips, because only Shao Nanyin has that magical charm.

And the person standing in front of him now was indeed Shao Nanyin.

"When I was a kid, my grandma couldn't tell the difference between me and Nan Qin." Shao Nanyin looked down at the pair of colorful glass slippers and said, "Children in the orphanage will be demerited once they wet the bed more than three times. Children who are demerited will be She was punished for a week, without snacks, made to stand while playing outdoors, and sometimes had to wash the toilet. Nanqin always liked to wet the bed at that time, she was a bedwetter. Every time she wet the bed for the third time, I would sleep with her. On the bed, grandma can't always tell whether the child in front of her who bows her head to admit her mistake is Nanqin or Nanyin. So I am very good at playing her, and she also knows how to play me well."

"She took the initiative to exchange with you? She took the initiative to help you escape?"

"Is it hard to accept?"

"But when? With so many people watching you, how could you escape here without being noticed?"

“There are always blind spots in vision, blind spots that are natural and reasonable.”

"Bathroom." Behind the card table, Su Xiaoqiang, who was gently holding Lin Nian's chair, raised his eyes and said.

"After you came out of that place, you never won chips at the poker table again, because Shao Nanyin opened a nightclub and was proficient in gambling, but Shao Nanqin is just an ordinary girl who knows nothing about Texas Hold'em and can only do"

"Discard." Shao Nanqin looked at Su Xiaoqiang behind Lin Nian and nodded, "Nanyin told me that I don't need to know how to play this game to be good, as long as I know how to discard the chips bit by bit."

Miss Ge's expression was not very good. In fact, she had long realized that there was a problem with Shao Nanqin's infinite discard, but she never thought about it. Only Lin Nian saw the problem and finally exposed her.

"Are you playing passively at the card table to buy time for Shao Nanyin, giving her a chance to escape far away? The fastest way to leave Chicago, I think, is by water? She should be hiding in a certain port now, waiting to come. The ferry or cargo ship that picks her up?" Su Xiaoqiang stared at Shao Nanqin and asked.

Shao Nanqin did not respond to Su Xiaoqiang's pressing steps. She just kept her expression low and did not give the other party any extra information.

"No, no, I clearly felt the dragon's power in the bathroom. It's impossible for ordinary people." Miss Ge at the card table suddenly stopped mid-sentence, because she seemed to realize something and her expression became ugly.

"They probably completed the replacement in the bathroom stall. You and I followed her to the bathroom, but we couldn't follow her into the stall. As long as Shao Nanqin waited in the stall in advance, the person who came out after entering the stall was not Shao Nanqin. Nanyin, and something like Long Wei..." Su Xiaoqiang took a deep breath, "It's too convenient to confuse people in such a small space."

"Is it that simple?" Miss Ge was suddenly so angry that she wanted to laugh. When the civet cat changed the prince, she was even separated from the two girls by a partition door. Their methods were so clumsy that they had no magical content at all? Hiding in a cubicle before another person comes on stage, such a ridiculous trick has actually been played by everyone?

"The recognition success rate of Lu Mingfei's word spirit 'lunar eclipse' is 99%." Su Xiaoqiang suddenly said, "The remaining 1% is due to his own mistakes."

"We trust Lu Mingfei's words too much." Lin Young nodded lightly, "He repeatedly confirmed that it was Shao Nanyin who got on the boat, so we completely judged the person we saw as Shao Nanyin. But the two of them Very smart, because they know that they don't need to deceive the 'lunar eclipse' with a success rate of almost 100%. They only need to deceive us who believe in the result of the 'lunar eclipse' and just bet on the 1%. The cost they need is Just an exact evening gown and some showmanship.”

"But there is surveillance outside the bathroom. If she wants to leave, she will definitely be caught on surveillance!" Miss Ge said.

At the same time, in the command room on the fifth floor, Xi Qingyuan, the electronic technician of the UII team, had already recalled the surveillance video playback of that corridor. Everyone watched in silence as Miss Ge, Su Xiaoqiang and "Shao Nanyin" left the bathroom. Half a minute later, another "Shao Nanyin" walked out generously from inside, went straight to the emergency stairs and left without looking back.

"How could we not notice?" Xi Qingyuan said.

"Because at that time, everyone's eyes were on the gambling table, all on 'Shao Nanyin' who had revealed his identity." Lin Nian looked at Shao Nanqin calmly and said, "Of course no one will pay attention to 'No One' anymore. The restroom."

"What happens is that the 'Anthem' can come and go freely. Every guest does not need to report if they want to leave. There will be a transfer speedboat to take them off the ship and dock." Su Xiaoqiang said.

Miss Ge didn't want to talk anymore. It was probably the first time in so many years that the UII team had encountered such a bizarre and major mistake.

"You are the first person to use contact lenses to pretend to be golden eyes and succeed." Willie Weier said slowly while looking at Shao Nanqin's pale golden eyes.

"They are not ordinary contact lenses. You can tell at a glance if they are ordinary contact lenses. They have done a pretty good job with such important details." Lin Nian looked at Shao Nanqin and stretched out his right hand, "This is what she gave you, right? ?”

Shao Nanqin was slightly startled when he saw Lin Nian holding two contact lenses on his outstretched fingers. He subconsciously touched his eyes and found that the things in his eyes had disappeared at some point.

"This is a product that is truly made from biological crystals. I guess it is the dragon's own cornea. There are obvious traces of alchemy in it. Sure enough, every pure-blood dragon has some knowledge of alchemy in its inheritance, but you Do you know that wearing this kind of thing for a long time will cause irreversible heterogeneity in your eyes, and you will eventually go blind?" Lin Nian put the thin film on the table and said calmly.

"So Nanyin told me to take it off as soon as it was exposed." Shao Nanqin rubbed the corners of her eyes. Her pupils were now filled with bloodshot eyes, as scary as conjunctivitis, but the only thing that could not be seen in those eyes was fear. And fear, and some are just relieved.

"You two knew from the beginning that we had a way to tell you apart?" Lin Nian asked.

"Well, Nanyin said that the stupid boy next to you is very strange. When he first saw her, he kept looking at her shoulders and showed fear. Even if he hid it well, his body secreted it autonomously. The hormone information cannot be hidden." Shao Nanqin said, "Lu Mingfei? That should be his name, right? Is he the one who recognized Nanyin's identity?"

"Yes, he should be confronting Shao Nanyin now. This should be beyond your expectations, and of course it is beyond my expectations." Lin Nian glanced sideways at Su Xiaoqiang beside him. At this moment, he also I know what Su Xiaoqiang did when he left temporarily.

Without Su Xiaoqiang, Shao Nanyin might have escaped by now, but unfortunately, at the most critical moment, Su Xiaoqiang noticed the clues and issued a warning, and Lu Mingfei and the others lived up to their expectations and caught Shao Nanyin's leg and bit it.

"I'm curious how you figured out that I'm not from Nanyin? We've never been caught playing each other since we were kids." Shao Nanqin looked at Su Xiaoqiang and asked.

Su Xiaoqiang paused and said, "When I was still in high school, I asked Lin Nian a question: Does the light makeup I put on today look good? How do you think Lin Nian answered me?"

Shao Nanqin was startled for a moment and then smiled bitterly.

The gaming table was quiet for a few seconds, and Lin Nian suddenly said, "What do you mean?"

"That's why I say that boys, as creatures, can never tell whether a woman is wearing makeup or not." Su Xiaoqiang sighed.

Lin Nian was stunned for a moment before he belatedly looked at Shao Nanqin's face. Under the light, that face was extremely beautiful, but if you really looked carefully, you could see extremely small traces of cosmetics.

Shao Nanyin never uses cosmetics. But Shao Nanqin is different. She is still a human being. As a human being, she will have flaws. If she has flaws, she will use cosmetics to make up for them. This is the vulnerability of her and Nanyin.

Miss Ge can also distinguish such details, but unfortunately she has not experienced the chat on the beach that afternoon, and does not know that Shao Nanyin never uses cosmetics, so she has never cared about these small details. Naturally Missed the fox tail that caught the civet cat in exchange for the prince.

"Have you all thought that this day would come?" Lin Nian asked, "Have you always known that Shao Nanyin is a dragon?"

"No." Shao Nanqin shook his head and said, "I still can't believe it until now."

"But you're sitting here now."

"Because she asked me to help her."

"But she is a dragon. In the past twenty-three years, do you think she has ever really regarded me as your sister for even a moment? Instead of food in stock, or something that can move and be taken off at any time. A skin of thinking.”

"When she told me those things, I did ask her that." Shao Nanqin looked at Lin Nian's dark eyes and said with a chuckle, "She told me that she had never regarded me as a sister. .I am so stupid, and she has always regretted letting me be her sister. I should be the younger sister! It was just that night that little girl cried and wanted to be the older sister among sisters, and her nose and tears mixed with the rain all over her body. , she could only reluctantly admit that I was her sister, and it has been like this ever since."
