The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 280
Advertisement
Yang Dao was smiling as the two kids played with Luster and Shadow. The old man saw that the beasts showed no signs of revolt and calmed down a bit. Yang Dao said, "Old Sir, would you like to sit down?"
He stood up and gave his seat to the old man. The old man nodded and sat down hesitantly. He asked, "Young Man, what is your name?"
Yang Dao reported his name and asked the Old Man about his. The man introduced himself and the people began to talk. Unknowingly, Yang Dao even sat down on the ground on the soft grass while talking. He was just like that. The garden had stone chairs but he preferred the soft grass. The old man saw his temperament was different than the other rich people in the society and asked, "Young man, what does your family do?"
"My elder sister is a businesswoman, Feng Yun. I also have my own company, sir. Why do you ask?" Yang Dao asked curiously.
The old man smiled and said, "To think that the young master of Pheonix group will sit down on the ground and talk to a humble old man. I have never seen a rich person sitting on the ground, so casually."
Yang Dao chuckled and said, "You glorify me, sir. Humans may earn immense wealth, they all feel the same hunger and same sickness. So why can they not sit down on the ground?"
The old man nodded and said, "Indeed." the two had a small talk and turned to look at the kids. The leopards were now playing tag with each other and the kids were also running around with them laughing. suddenly, Yang Dao's watch beeped. He looked down at the sports watch and said, "It is time."

He stood up patting his buttocks to dust off any blade of grass stuck to him. He said, "Sir, I will take my leave now. I have to go to college." he bowed slightly to the old man and turned to the leopards.
He said, "Luster, Shadow, let's go home."
The two beasts came to his side immediately. Tim and Kim also rushed over. Kim spoke up, "Big brother, can you not stay for a few more minutes, please." and she took out her lethal puppy eyes and aimed at Yang Dao.
The boy, however, repelled her strong attack with a sunny smile on his face. he crouched down and patted her head gently as he said, "How about we meet again tomorrow? Today, I have college."
His charm was enough to make countless beauties fall, this little girl was no different. She was hooked to his smile and said, "Okay. Promise?" as she extended her pinky finger to him.
Yang Dao smiled and hooked his pinky finger with him and said, "The hook of life. No lie."
The little girl also chirped, "The hook of life. No lie." She was a complete fangirl of Yang Dao.
After bidding them farewell, the boy ran his way back to the lobby of his residential tower. Took the lift under the stunned gazes and took the two big cats back home. He was about to open the door when Lisa pulled it open.
Yang Dao asked, "How did you know about my arrival?" he was genuinely curious about how the girl found out about his arrival, every time.
Lisa just smiled and did not say anything. Yang Dao sighed and got back inside. He took a quick shower and changed his clothes. He ate the breakfast prepared for him and after taking his shoulder bag he left the house.

He did not ride his bicycle today. He directly started his car and left for college. It has been quite a few days for him to see the lively college campus. He was wondering if anything changed there. When he was driving inside the college parking area. He found a familiar face looking at him. The face belonged to Carole.
Carole was a vampire, how specialized in interrogation and information extraction. The two participated in a task for the special forces. As he parked the car, Carole walked over to him. She waited till he got out and said, "We are on stand-by."
Yang Dao was surprised. Last time after the task, it was made clear that the three people who worked together will be working as a team over time. However, he did not expect to get a stand-by notice as soon as he returned to the normal swing of life.
He asked in a low voice as the two walked inside the campus, "What's up?"
Carole said, "We have found traces of hyper humans, infiltrating the region. A nationwide alert has been issued until their target is confirmed."
Yang Dao raised his eyebrow and asked, "Hyper humans? Do you mean, New Dawn?"
Carole did not reply but only nodded. She said, "Tony has been transferred to our city as well. The high command has allowed us the commanding rights. We can move the civilian forces as we deem necessary."
Yang Dao nodded, he asked, "Is Tony here?"
Carole nodded and said, "He is your classmate. Also, here is my contact number. We will meet at night, I think we should set up a monitor base."
Yang Dao had no problem. He did not mind being careful to avoid danger. After the short discussion, the girl left for her own classes while Yang Dao moved toward the teacher's office. Thinking about the whole conversation with Carole, he could not help but fish out his phone and called Laohu Bai. The call connected after a few rings.
Yang Dao said, "Good morning, Baibai. Missed me."
A soft voice sounded from the other side, "A little, tell me what happened?"
Yang Dao asked her, "Hyper Human invasion?"
He only said these three words as he did not trust the safety of the connection. Laohu Bai replied, "Aye, the estimate is nine. Three teams. We have mobilized the squads, but still, the SRs are asked to be on stand-by. Hyper Humans are not easy to deal with."
Yang Dao's face became solemn, "Strength estimate?"
The girl on the other side sighed and said, "Level four Elementalist."
It would be a lie if Yang Dao said that he was not surprised to hear this. After all, he himself was a level four Elementalist and his strength was enough to level a city. (Yes, I kept it low-key till now.)
