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.
