Chapter 1: A name is just a code

Dover is located in the southeast of England, close to the European continent. This area covers an area of ​​121 square miles and mainly includes 3 towns: Dover, Deal and Sandwich, with a population of 290,000. The town of Dover was once called "Britain"

"Gate", was a strategic location in Britain before the Roman invasion. Dover is a general name for the region, which is actually a bit like Hong Kong in China. It is also a general name. It covers Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, the New Territories, and large and small

It is composed of islands. Although Dover is not as big as Hong Kong, it is very famous in the history of England. The small town of Dover is the closest place to France in the entire British Isles, and the round trip between the two places is only 34 kilometers.

Dover is a busy seaport city. Countless ships pass through the 20-mile English Channel every day, handling goods between the two countries. When the weather is clear, you can see the land of the French Republic across the channel in the distance.

.

In a hotel called "Lock" in the town of Dover, in the last room on the second floor facing the sea, a tall young man with short brown hair was seen standing at the window looking at the bustling flow of people outside.

, a pair of dark black eyes as bright as diamonds, but slightly dazed. The young man's name is Aldrich Baker, but he also has another name called Chu Long, or he is the owner of these two names.

The product of "fusion".

A month ago, Aldrich Baker and his parents were still on the sea near the Virgin Islands. They forgot to introduce Aldrich's father, Alger, an Englishman who was born in a carpenter's family and graduated from college.

Later, he and several classmates became navigators, searching for the lost treasures in the mysterious sea. But my mother was not from England, or even British, but a woman from the Jiangnan water town in the far east of China.

Beautiful woman, Chu Ling'er. His parents met at a cocktail party. Chu Ling'er, who was impressed by Alger's wonderful sailing stories, fell in love with this exotic blonde with blue eyes in less than a month.

A young man who later set out on a sailing journey with Aldrich's father regardless of his family's opposition.

A month ago, the Aldrich family and their companions were searching for traces of a cargo ship that was lost 50 years ago on the sea near the Virgin Islands. They heard that it contained a batch of gold and precious treasures destined for London. It was owned by a Korean family.

The goods that the nobles were preparing to send to London for auction were encountered in a shipwreck near the Virgin Islands. No one on the ship survived, and everyone on the ship was killed.

When Alger and the crew were passing by here, a lady on the boat unfortunately slipped and fell into the water. When Alger and others were rescuing the person, they accidentally discovered two exquisite sealed iron boxes.

Two boxes were salvaged aboard the ship, and gold and fine porcelain were found inside the ship. After identification and research, the provenance of the two boxes of treasures was discovered. After discussions between Alger and the main personnel on the ship, it was decided to transfer these treasures

The treasure was deposited in Barclays Bank in Dover. Afterwards, I prepared supplies again, searched for relevant information, and embarked on a second treasure hunt by sea.

Unexpectedly, the second search did not go well, and there was a sudden storm at sea in the evening, causing the entire ship to roll over and hit a reef. All the people on the ship sank into the sea and died in the shipwreck. Originally, Aldrich was also going to die.

But at this moment, a bright light appeared in the sky and shone on his body. Aldrich instantly felt a splitting headache and was in unbearable pain. He was like a fish constantly rolling and twitching on land, rolling and sinking on the sea.

.At this moment, he was stuck on several raised reefs under the sea level, and Aldrich completely fainted.

When I woke up again, I found myself lying in this hotel. Later I heard the owner of this hotel, Mr. Yaheng Selter, said that he had rescued me from the cracks of the reef, and that he had been in a coma for a week.

Already.

After waking up, I didn't know who I was for a long time. My mind was in chaos, and all kinds of mixed memories emerged. There were images of stepping on unknown planets, and experiences of traveling to various countries. Two names kept appearing in my mind, one.

His name was Chu Long, and his other name was Aldrich. He sat on the bed and sat blankly for a whole day, and finally figured out his identity.

This body belongs to a Chinese-English mixed-race man named Aldrich. He was "transformed" by the mutation caused by the Nine Stars Lianzhu. The soul and body of a future person named Chu Long brought by the Nine Stars Lianzhu

The energy and blood were fused, and the whole body was transformed from the soul to the body. The original height of 1.85 meters became 1.95 meters. The black pupils sometimes turned blue, and when they changed, they would cause damage to the surroundings.

Due to the "change" of the water, my body is much stronger than before. If I look at it rashly, I will be recognized as another person. I feel that there are other changes, but I haven't noticed it.

From that day on, the shipwrecked man lived in the hotel called "Locke" and occasionally helped with some work. The people in the hotel called him the Blessed One because he was the one who survived the shipwreck.

, but lost his memory again.

Standing in my room, thinking about whether I am Chu Long or Aldrich, looking out the window blankly, where do I belong? Where should I go? When I make a decision, deep in my heart

There seems to be a voice in my mind, telling myself that I shouldn't make a decision easily. I know that if I continue like this, I will go crazy sooner or later, but I can't even determine who I am.

The sound of a "ding" bell woke me up from deep thought like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning. At this moment, I looked at the surrounding environment again, at the people coming and going outside the window, and at the sky, I suddenly realized

There is no need for me to be so entangled in who I am. My name is just a code name. It doesn't matter what it is called. What matters is that I have to prove that I have existed in this world.

After thinking about it, I decided to keep my original name, Chu Long.

The hotel I live in called "Locke" covers an area of ​​6,500 square meters. It is the largest hotel in the town of Dover, but it is actually a small and medium-sized hotel. The entire hotel is divided into three floors.

The first floor includes a restaurant, bar, kitchen, and small guest rooms (to explain, it mainly refers to the places where people who have no money and cannot afford housing live.) The second and third floors are basically all guest rooms, except for the one where I live.

In addition, because this was the original room of the boss's brother, he still kept it for him even if his brother left the UK.
