Scattered sunlight streamed through the classroom windows, illuminating the girl’s delicate doll-like cheeks. She bowed her head, quietly staring at the books on the desk, somewhat dazed. A hand suddenly reached out from the front, snatching the book in front of her. Immediately, a face with wide-open eyes moved close to the girl, "Liu Nan, did you not sleep well last night? Why are you just sitting here in a daze?" Liu Nan was startled, her body straightening as she leaned back. She looked at the girl in front of her, shaking her head in a distracted manner, "It’s nothing, Nannan, I just feel a bit unwell, kind of anxious." The girl in front reached out, touched Liu Nan’s forehead, then touched her own, "No fever, do you need to go to the campus hospital?" "Let’s talk later," Liu Nan shook her head, "Maybe I didn’t sleep well last night. I’m not sure why, but starting from last night, I’ve been feeling uneasy, can’t really pinpoint the reason, just feeling uncomfortable inside." "Are you nervous about the upcoming exams?" The girl shook her head, pondering. "Maybe," Liu Nan shook her head, shook her head again, "I’ll go wash my face in the restroom, see if I can wake up a bit." "Alright," the girl picked up her shoulder bag and sat in the seat beside Liu Nan, "Go quickly, come back soon. Morning class is about to start, and although this teacher doesn’t take attendance, there might be exam highlights?" A faint smile appeared on Liu Nan’s somewhat pale cheeks as she slowly stood up and walked out of the classroom. The classroom was at the corner, and right next to it was the restroom. The girl stood in front of the restroom mirror, turned on the faucet, and amidst the sound of rushing water, splashed two handfuls of water onto her cheeks. The cold water droplets briefly awakened her spirit. She raised her head, gazing at herself in the mirror. Her complexion was somewhat pale, her expression a bit weary, but she could feel there was no physical problem with her body. Ever since the ’Awakening,’ she hadn’t been ill for a long time. This sudden anxiety seemed more like a psychological issue, rather than a physical one. She took a deep breath, turned around, and walked out of the restroom. "Liu Nan? Can I ask you two questions?" Just as she stepped out of the restroom, a gentle voice rang in her ear. She looked up, looking ahead. At some point, a gentle-looking young man stood right in front of her. The young man looked at her, extending his hand to introduce himself. Liu Nan instinctively extended her hand, shaking hands with the young man in front of her. She vaguely felt that this young man and his name seemed familiar, but in this sudden meeting, she couldn’t react immediately. "Alright, time might be short, I’ll get straight to the point," He Ao looked at the girl in front of him, speaking gently, "First question, did your father contact you in the past few days?" Liu Nan was momentarily unable to react. "Second question," having already obtained answers from the mark on the girl, He Ao spoke quickly, "If your father were to contact you, where do you think he would stay?" Liu Nan was puzzled again, looking at He Ao, and suddenly realized, "Are you Minister He?" He Ao nodded gently, "If possible, I hope you temporarily don’t tell anyone that I came here." As he spoke, he turned to leave. At that moment, Liu Nan quickly said, "My father didn’t come to see me. If he comes, he’ll stay at the villa by White Bird Lake. I can take you there." He Ao stopped moving, gazing at the girl in front of him. After a brief pause, he nodded gently, "Okay." Then Liu Nan felt a strong hand grasp her shoulder, lifting her whole body up. The roaring wind blew against her cheeks, and before she could react, she found herself in a long alley. Some steam whistle sounds echoed in the morning sun, and before the girl could regain her senses, she felt herself enter an old-fashioned carriage. As the carriage door closed, the train entered darkness, releasing the grip on her shoulder. She finally came out of her dazed state, instinctively looking around her surroundings. She looked at the appearance of the old-fashioned dining car, and after a brief distraction, her eyes widened slowly, "Is this the Velora?" She curiously observed the exquisite old train, reaching out to touch the edge of the dining car, "This is Mr. Hao Yi’s Velora?" As Liu Zhengyun’s daughter, she often surfed the Research Institute’s official website intensely, and occasionally dug up gossip from her father. Looking around, she suddenly realized something and quickly pulled her hand back, looking at He Ao somewhat cautiously, "Is Mr. Hao Yi here too?" He was an external B-level in the Research Institute, said to be very powerful by her father. He Ao glanced at the girl, casually replied. At Xidu University, at least in the academy where He Ao was, Liu Nan was considered quite famous. Someone good-looking easily becomes a topic of conversation for others, especially when Liu Nan is both a beautiful girl and a young lady, offering two gossip points. Besides, Liu Nan and He Ao were in the same department, often attending classes together. Even though He Ao used to be busy making money and his mind wasn’t primarily on campus, he more or less heard Liu Nan’s news. That’s also why he could quickly make associations upon seeing the name. Though he never thought before, Liu Nan was Liu Zhengyun’s daughter. Apart from occasionally being in the same classroom, he and Liu Nan’s lives hardly intersected. The only crossover outside the classroom should be the first time he entered a relic, vaguely remembering that Liu Nan seemed to be in the same batch of entrants into the relic. "Did Mr. Hao Yi lend you the Velora?" Upon hearing He Ao’s words, Liu Nan seemed to have some realization. As Liu Zhengyun’s daughter, she naturally knew a bit more about gossip, such as the renowned Minister He and the external B-level Hao Yi seemed to have good private connections. "For now, this train can take me to the place I want to go." He Ao responded casually. ’Hao Yi’ using the Velora to send He Ao wasn’t a ’new story,’ during the Relic of the Bygone Days event, the Velora already ’sent’ He Ao to the relic. Liu Nan nodded gently. She looked at the darkness outside the window, paused for a moment, suppressed her voice, and quietly asked, "Minister He, you came to find me because of my father..." Before she could finish speaking, bright rays of light shone through the Velora’s windows. He Ao turned his head to look out the window, then asked gently, "Which villa is yours?" Liu Nan looked out the window. At this moment, the Velora seemed to be sailing across the lake, her gaze swept swiftly past the villas by the lakeside. Then she raised her hand, pointing to a villa in the corner of her view quickly saying, "It’s that one." He Ao nodded lightly. At that moment, Liu Nan once again felt her shoulder being grasped by a hand. At the same time, the train door slowly opened. The next second, Liu Nan felt a blur of light and shadow before her eyes, and the moist air brushed her cheeks. The field of view around her became hazy once more. Vaguely, she turned her head and looked behind her. The ancient train was sailing on the tranquil water surface, creating long, slanted ripples on both sides of the water. The morning sun’s rays pierced through the clear sky, illuminating the entire water surface like a mirror, reflecting the ancient train and the serene twilight. It seemed like a beautiful morning. The girl gazed at the train as it completely entered the void, feeling the light and shadows flowing around her, then once again gathering. When her sight fully regained itself, a familiar gate was already standing before her. She felt the hand gripping her palm loosen and before she could react, the young man beside her had already walked to the door, gazing at the tightly closed door. "Do you often come back here?" "I usually stay in the dormitory or in a house near the school," Liu Nan said slowly, in a low voice, "Only when my dad comes, does he stay here, at that time a team of housekeepers would clean this room in advance, and also a gardener would come regularly to take care of the flowers and plants in the house." He Ao gazed at the tightly closed door, looking at the dust on the door lock, "This door hasn’t been opened for a long time." Liu Nan nodded lightly, slightly clenching her fingers. She didn’t know if this was good news or bad news, she was a bit nervous in her heart. "But there is someone inside this room." He Ao gazed at the door and spoke again. Through the power of Super Memory, he could clearly perceive the presence of some thought in the villa, and the owner of that thought was strong. He looked up at the villa’s wall, slightly turning his body, looking at Liu Nan. Liu Nan didn’t know what to say, but she understood He Ao’s meaning. She walked to the door, finger pressing onto the fingerprint lock. With a light sound, the door opened. A special and chilly Qi conveyed from inside the villa. Entering through the main entrance, the inside of the villa was a small garden. At this moment, the flowers in the garden were all blooming under the morning sun. He Ao gazed at these flowers, finding that these flowers all presented symmetrical shapes. He reached out to stop Liu Nan, who naturally wanted to enter through the door, gently saying, "It might be dangerous inside." Hearing his words, Liu Nan was slightly stunned, then she raised her head to look at He Ao. She did hear many legends about this ’classmate’ while at school, but it was the first time to face this classmate directly during her venture into the relic. It was just at that time, this classmate was already standing at the center of the stage, she could only glance at the other from afar. After a brief pause, she gazed at He Ao and spoke slowly, "I’m not afraid of danger, this is my home, I might be able to help you." Since she walked to this door, she felt a bit nervous like a huge stone pressing on her heart, making her unable to breathe. She knew she should go inside, otherwise she might have no chance in the future. He Ao raised his head, looked at the girl in front, seeing a faint ’plea’ in her gaze, retracted his hand, and said softly, "Pay attention to everything around." Saying so, he walked into the villa ahead of her. The gentle morning breeze blew through the small garden, brushing the flowers in the garden. The petals of these flowers were completely symmetrical, their green leaves were completely symmetrical, they swayed in the wind, the degree of swaying to the left and right was completely identical. Liu Nan gazed at these plants. Although she didn’t often return home, this place, after all, was her home, she was familiar with everything here, some flowers in this garden were even planted by her own hands. But at this moment, she felt everything familiar was so unfamiliar. And in front of her, He Ao’s footsteps slowly moved forward, passing through the garden, through the opened glass door, entering the thoughtfully designed interior hall. He gazed at the villa, faintly feeling the villa was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen similar designs somewhere before. But the villa designs near White Bird Lake were all similar, he had been here staking out fugitives before, having a sense of familiarity was normal. He Ao’s steps moved slowly forward, he was gazing at the surrounding architecture. The interior design of this villa was overall geometrically shaped, similar to the outdoor design language. Theoretically speaking, such geometric designs rarely use completely symmetrical structures, as this could make the design appear stiff, lacking spirituality. But everything in He Ao’s view exhibited a clearly symmetrical structure. Judging by the arrangement of interiors and the lines drawn by walls, the interior designer of this building should have had his own ideas, many of his designs even sacrificed inhabitation for beauty. While these weird symmetrical structures destroyed the original architectural aesthetics. "Has your home’s interior always been ?" He Ao looked at those interiors and asked softly. "It seems like it," Liu Nan turned her head to look at the surrounding interior, gazing at those strange symmetrical structures, "yet it also seems a bit different." She shook her head and said hesitantly, "My home doesn’t seem to have so many symmetrical structures." He Ao lowered his head and glanced at the building’s inside, glanced at the atrium and windows used for lighting. The morning sun outside was bright, yet the indoor light seemed a bit chilly. Even the entire room exhibited a kind of regulated yet chilling tone. He Ao picked up his pace, ready to continue forward. At that moment, he felt some invisible power invading his body, his power trying to control him, making him lift both feet at the same time when lifting a foot. Only lifting one foot was ’asymmetrical.’ He Ao raised his head to look at the surrounding architecture, falling into a brief silence. Actually, when he arrived at this villa, his heart had estimated it, but when he really saw these, his emotions were inevitably affected. Things were heading towards the scenario he feared the most. He turned back to look at Liu Nan who followed behind. Liu Nan was much weaker than him, yet she seemed unaffected by that power, still walking normally. He Ao gazed at the somewhat confused girl and slowly asked, "In this villa, where is your father’s favorite place to stay?"
