Chapter 1533: Returning to the Old Place
On this day, Gu Fan took a ride to the suburbs and once again stepped into the castle-like villa by the sea. It was a property of second granduncle Gu Weihai, now left for Helen to use as a secret base.
Organization X generally places its secret bases near the sea, so that in case of an attack, there would be both sea and land routes for retreat, including underground tunnels.
In addition, the bases are usually surrounded by dense woods, where vampires can avoid sunlight when the weather changes.
The car stopped in the garage, and as soon as Gu Fan got out, he was met with many stern gazes. Everyone seemed guarded, treating Gu Fan as if he were an enemy, making him feel a bit pressured.
Qiao Ya came over and greeted him.
"I haven’t seen you in Dark City, didn’t think you were still alive," Gu Fan said, which sounded somewhat unpleasant, yet it showed that his relationship with Qiao Ya was still passable.
Qiao Ya gave an awkward smile: "Yeah, lucky for me I wasn’t in Dark City, otherwise I wouldn’t know if I could have made it past. But, I do really admire you, Gu Fan, for even taking down the lair of Organization X."
"Just luck, merely luck," Gu Fan smiled, then followed Qiao Ya to the reception room.
At this moment, important figures like Helen and Xue Lang were all present in the reception room, just waiting for Gu Fan to grace them with his presence.
