The security personnel were slightly surprised when they looked at the half-decayed World Tree badge. This dragon-slaying academy in North America is world-famous.
Being from an orthodox clan, he naturally heard about it, and he also knew that the Jiang family and Kassel Academy have now cooperated in many aspects and can be regarded as allies.
"Welcome!" He returned the card with both hands and moved out of the way.
Susie came to the front desk. After consultation, she learned that the place where ancient books and materials are stored is on the seventh floor. In addition, the internal office area of the Deacon Hall is on the third floor, and the external international mixed-race support organization is on the fourth floor.
.
The headquarters of the orthodox Jiang family is somewhat similar to the Genji Heavy Industries of Japan's Sheqi Eight Families, but the size of the Jiang family alone is larger than that of the Eight Sheqi Families.

The security measures at Jiang's headquarters are extremely strict. There are many access controls inside, and the elevator requires a card to enter. So after Susie expressed her intention, a staff member at the front desk led her to a corner on the seventh floor.
The person who manages ancient books and dragon information is an old man. When Susie visited, he was drinking tea with another staff member from other departments.
When Su Qian took out the thread-bound ancient book, the old man shook his head and said with certainty: "This is not Jiang's book."
"But this book was sent by Mrs. Jiang." Susie said, "It was stuffed in a box with a bunch of photocopied materials and printed books."
The old man still shook his head: "I have been with this pile of books for fifty years. There are more than 4,000 ancient books related to the Jiang family's dragon clan. After moving here from the old courtyard, there are a total of 3,740 that were put on the seventh floor.
Twelve books, there is definitely no one among these more than three thousand books, unless it is a tenth-level book."
Susie believed the old man's judgment. The memory of hybrids was far beyond that of ordinary people. It was normal for them to memorize the names of thousands of books after decades of work.
Susie's doubts became even more intense now. She looked at the book of unknown origin in her hand and fell into deep thought.
This unknown ancient book contains the secret of the birth of the Dragon King, and it seems that someone with ulterior motives pushed this clue in front of them...
Who could be the person behind the scenes? What is her purpose? Does she just want to help the action team find the King of the Earth and the Mountain, or induce them to go in the wrong direction... or is she planning a bigger conspiracy?
Su Qian remembered what the old man said, and she asked: "The Jiang family has a second place to store ancient books? Are the books on the tenth floor very different from the books on the seventh floor?"
"It should be three." The old man said casually: "The collection of books on the seventh floor, whether they are ancient books or other books, are open to everyone in the family. The value of the collection and the recorded content of the other books are immeasurable. If
Viewing requires higher privileges."
Susie smiled and asked the staff: "Can I go to the tenth floor to have a look? I'm just checking the information, I won't take it out."
"Impossible." The old man said with a smile: "Do you watch martial arts dramas? Have you ever seen any martial arts secrets that can be easily shown to outsiders?"
Sure enough, the staff politely declined Susie's request.
Susie just smiled and said nothing. She took out her mobile phone and clicked on the address book.
A few minutes later, the elevator door on the seventh floor opened, and a girl in a casual suit walked out.
…
Time always passes quickly when people focus on one thing. A few hours later, Susie walked out of Jiang's headquarters.
At six o'clock in the afternoon in December, night has enveloped Yanjing City, and the streets are lit with street lamps.
It is the rush hour of commuting to get off work, and modern cars are moving slowly in the crowded traffic.
“Yenjing’s transportation system has major problems.”
"There are just too many people..."
Two strong men in the back row were discussing.
Lancelot asked: "Have you gained anything from soaking in the information all afternoon?"
"There should be gains, but they are all scattered." Susie patted her white canvas bag, "I packed a few important books and will go back to work overtime tonight."
Only then did Lancelot notice that Susie's full canvas bag contained ancient books with yellowed paper.
Noticing his gaze, Susie explained: "I called Jiang Yi."
Lancelot nodded. No wonder, the head of the family has spoken, so what does borrowing a few books mean?
"Where are Caesar and the others? Have they found any traces of the Dragon King's activities?" Susie asked, "Or have they caught the long-legged ninja?"
"They are still outside and there is no progress yet." Lancelot replied.
At this time, Susie's cell phone rang. She opened it and saw that the student responsible for using seismic data to infer the traces of the Dragon King had sent the results to the internal group chat.
The students in charge of this project marked the location of the earthquake source with red dots, and consecutive red dots were connected with dotted lines, like an active trajectory.
Susie handed the phone to Lancelot to look at. Lancelot frowned: "Are they sure there is no problem with the calculation? Is the Dragon King always moving? Is he a sports expert or does he have to commute to get off work?"
Susie looked at the red dots on the map. One of them was very close to where they were, and it showed the location: Wangfujing Subway Station.
It just so happened that Lancelot was also eyeing that point.
"Shall we go and have a look?" Lancelot was a little eager to give it a try. "It's only one or two stops away. Although it's crowded, it's much faster to take the subway."
"Let's go together." Susie said cautiously, "First report to the hotel and find a parking lot."
…
On the same street, an extended version of the Hummer was driving slowly.
The back of the car is a private space, completely separated from the driver's seat, and is decorated with cherry wood and burgundy lamb leather. In the constant-temperature wine cabinet, crystal wine sets jingle as the car body sways, and a large kangaroo leather sofa faces 42
The LCD screen is supposed to display the changes in the New York Stock Exchange market in real time, but now it is connected to several surveillance screens.
A girl was curled up on the big sofa, holding potato chips like a cute little hamster. In front of her was another girl's long legs stretched out.
The surveillance picture showed a girl wearing a royal blue down jacket walking into the subway station. The long-legged girl looked at this scene with some worry.
"Potato chips, will the 'S' class kill us if they find out..." Mai Shutoku showed fear on her face.
Su Enxi bit the potato chips until they clicked loudly. She said in surprise: "No way, my girlfriend's best friend is so interested in her? It's just a fish bait... If Little White Rabbit and the others had come early, she wouldn't have died. Chu
Zihang and Caesar are enough to control the situation."
"And why are you so afraid of the 'S' class?" Su Enxi said mockingly, "We are so invisible that we are not afraid even if he is an old dragon king. He is not a god!"
Mai Shutoku stretched out her hand and pinched her face: "What am I afraid of? I can get away with anywhere, I can cut people with the knife, I can wash my hands and make soup when I put the knife down, I can also give
I have a chance! Anyway, you can earn money by warming the bed of an 'S' class! It's going to be miserable for you, he has no shortage of accounting maids!"
