The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

430: Chapter 426: The Woman Drinking Alone (Third Update!) 430: Chapter 426: The Woman Drinking Alone (Third Update!) Asano Naoko, sitting to the side, seemed to have also picked up on the weight in Lin Tian’s words and fell silent for a moment.

The car sped along the expressway, heading back to Bin City, with the reflective road studs quickly receding into the distance.

Half an hour later.

Lin Tian exited the expressway and took a secondary road leading to Bin City East Avenue.

Upon reaching the end of the avenue, he could see Rong Shanshan’s SUV, which, under the night lights, cast a huge shadow.

As he approached her, Lin Tian didn’t even get out of the car but leaned out instead.

Just then, Rong Shanshan had stepped down from her vehicle.

“Brother Tian, tell me, did you catch that strong adversary from Japan?

They say you’re a Cultivator, very powerful…”

Rong Shanshan came up and started chattering.

But Lin Tian wasn’t in the mood for idle talk and waved her off, saying, “First take me to that place called Old Locust Pond.

We can talk about other things later!”

Hearing this, Rong Shanshan’s face changed slightly, and her expression grew somber.

She then nodded and climbed back into her car.

Following Rong Shanshan’s vehicle, they sped down a city avenue heading south.

Old Locust Pond was new to Lin Tian, and he didn’t know where it was, so he could only follow.

After nearly twenty minutes, the car entered something resembling a large park entrance.

“Bin City Sanli Wetland Park!”

At the entrance, a two-person tall stele stood, with a row of large characters inscribed upon it.

So, this was Bin City’s wetland park!

Zhao Yixin was buried here, right?

Lin Tian pondered as he drove following Rong Shanshan.

The Sanli Wetland Park was incredibly vast.

Inside, apart from the largest Sanli Lake, there were scattered little lakes, and in between, several small islands.

To the side, there were rolling low hills.

Lin Tian followed Rong Shanshan, driving along the inner roads of the wetland park by the lake, straight toward a massive mountain range.

From a distance, Lin Tian could already see many burial sites densely packed atop that mountain range.

Although it was nighttime, Lin Tian’s vision wasn’t hindered in the slightest.

It seemed this was one of Bin City’s public cemeteries.

Beside Sanli Wetland Park, indeed a good location.

Lin Tian sighed silently as he continued to drive.

Arriving at the base of the mountain beneath the public cemetery, Lin Tian got out of the car, carrying the head wrapped in a somewhat blood-stained black robe.

Asano Naoko followed him out of the car and, looking at Lin Tian’s hand, seemed to understand something.

She pursed her lips, her face showing both sadness and apology.

At this moment.

Rong Shanshan finally took notice of Asano Naoko.

She couldn’t tell the other was Japanese, merely casting a curious glance.

Following Rong Shanshan, they climbed the stone steps of the public cemetery.

They soon saw Xu Ping, kneeling absentmindedly in front of a new tombstone.

Lin Tian walked up and looked at the lightly crackling candles and then at Zhao Yixin on the tombstone, smiling radiantly, clenching his fist.

“Brother Xu, I’m sorry!”

He softly apologized to Xu Ping and placed the wrapped head down, “This is the head of the leader of the Japanese who entered Huaxia this time, offering it to your wife’s spirit in heaven!”

Bang~

Lin Tian unleashed a Fire Bomb Technique, turning the head and black robe into ashes, which he then scattered in front of the tombstone.

“Minister Lin, this has nothing to do with you, no need to apologize!

The thing inside Yixin was likely about to erupt anyway…”

Xu Ping turned to look at him and shook his head, “Besides, protecting President Xu was also part of our duty!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian remained quiet.

“I’m sorry!”

Suddenly, Asano Naoko stepped forward, bowed deeply to Xu Ping, and apologized.

“You’re Japanese!”

Xu Ping and Rong Shanshan’s expressions changed drastically, their piercing gazes quickly falling on the little girl in front of them.

“She is Japanese!

But she was kidnapped by those people and imprisoned at the sea base, I just happened to rescue her!”

Lin Tian sighed softly and explained, “I will take her to the airport tomorrow to send her home.

She’s just a child, don’t make it difficult for her.”

Hearing this, Xu Ping and Rong Shanshan’s expressions softened.

“Minister Lin, you take her away, I don’t want to see a Japanese person!”

Xu Ping gritted his teeth, turned his head away, and waved his hand.

Lin Tian silently sighed, took Asano Naoko’s hand, and as they walked away, he said, “Brother Xu, be strong.”

Without waiting for Rong Shanshan, Lin Tian took Asano Naoko and left first.

On the way, Asano Naoko became silent.

“It’s okay, this has nothing to do with you!

I’ll find a hotel for you to stay in!”

Seeing the little girl’s distracted appearance, all Lin Tian could do was offer a word of comfort.

However.

Asano Naoko remained silent, speaking even less.

Lin Tian, not knowing how to comfort her, booked a room at a nearby hotel for them.

“Have a good rest, I’ll leave now, and I’ll come back to see you tomorrow!”

After giving her instructions, Lin Tian prepared to leave.

“Big brother, could you wait until I’m lying down before you go?

I’m scared!”

At this moment, Asano Naoko looked up, her big eyes filled with confusion and panic.

“Okay!

Go take a bath first!”

After all, she was just a girl not yet fourteen or fifteen, and Lin Tian couldn’t bear to refuse, so he decided to stay a little longer.

After a faint sound of water for a while, ten minutes later, Asano Naoko emerged from the bathroom.

She stood in front of Lin Tian wearing a thin nightgown, her youthful figure already beginning to develop.

Lin Tian glanced at her briefly, then averted his gaze, stood up, and said, “Naoko, go to sleep.

Tomorrow I’ll take you out, and then you can go home.”

“Big brother, let me stay with you!”

Suddenly, Asano Naoko stepped up to Lin Tian, “I hope I can atone for the evils of my countrymen!”

Looking at the little girl in front of him, Lin Tian took a deep breath, astonished that a girl of such a young age could have such a thought.

“It’s not your fault!

And redemption doesn’t work like that!”

Lin Tian shook his head and said, “Get some sleep now!”

Seeing Lin Tian refuse her, Asano Naoko’s face fell, and she said, “Big brother, I want to leave.

Take me to the airport now!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian nodded and didn’t refuse.

He took her and left for Bin City International Airport.

Upon arrival at the airport, it was just ten o’clock, and there happened to be a flight to Japan Kyoto.

After buying the ticket, Lin Tian took Asano Naoko to the check-in gate.

After passing through the gate, she kept turning her head to look back at Lin Tian, her eyes red with reluctance.

“Big brother, I’ll wait for you in Kyoto!

For a lifetime!”

Suddenly, Asano Naoko shouted to Lin Tian and then ran off, quickly out of sight.

Lin Tian stared blankly at the vanished silhouette and the words left behind, falling into silence for a moment.

After a long while, Lin Tian left the airport and drove back.

It was already late at night, Lin Tian drove off the highway, and some streets were deserted.

As he was passing over a bridge, he saw a woman sitting on the bridge parapet, holding a canned beer, looking up at the sky, silently drinking alone.

Lin Tian took just a glance, not really paying much attention.

But all of a sudden, the woman put down the canned beer, swayed on the parapet, and prepared to stand up.

Screech~~

Lin Tian’s expression drastically changed, he slammed on the brakes hard, hurriedly got out of the car, and rushed over.
