Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei returns from Sekiro

The tip of Kakimaru's knife was pointed at Eri's eyebrows.

This is not a warm and comfortable hotel, nor is it a sunny flower street.

The place where Lu Mingfei is located is the core area of ​​Genji Heavy Industries.

There are several safety doors made of 20 cm thick alloy, thick metal alloy floors, and walls that are so precisely spliced ​​that there are no windows.

All the details on this level imply that the miko in front of her is a terrifying monster.

Lu Mingfei originally thought that the staff were hidden deeper inside, but now it seems that there are no so-called staff at all. This floor is just a cage, only used to hold the monster named "Uesugi Eri".

Lu Mingfei was not sure whether Eriyi was still the Eriyi he knew. Maybe at night, the monster hidden in the girl's body would come out and turn into a murderous Shura.

He wanted Eriki to stop, at least explain the current situation and clarify the situation.

However, as if the girl couldn't see the knife in his hand, she approached quickly with brisk steps.

She ran toward Lu Mingfei without any defense, waving the cherry-red long knife in her hand like a child, as if it was just a plastic toy.

Lu Mingfei felt like she was a primary school student. When primary school students heard the teacher calling for the end of the school day, they would run out of the classroom happily and quickly with their schoolbags on their backs, because when they got home they could watch TV, eat snacks, and share what happened in school with their parents. You can also escape the clutches of the class teacher.

When school is over, all the primary school students think about are happy things, and the joy in their eyes seems to be overflowing.

The golden light disappeared from the primary school student's eyes and returned to rose-colored pupils.

Lu Mingfei sighed and finally put away the knife.

He really didn't know why Eriyi trusted him so much, even with the knife pointed at his head, he could still run over like nothing happened.

Even if you are a familiar friend, and you suddenly see him pick up a knife in your house late at night, with the blade pointed at your vitals, you should first ask: "What are you doing?"

Is she so sure that he won't hurt her?

Or maybe she doesn't take herself seriously at all and thinks I can put you in order with just a finger.

"Why is Sakura here?" Eriki asked, holding up the notebook.

She stood on tiptoes and looked at Lu Mingfei's clothes curiously.

"This... it's a long story." Lu Mingfei scratched his head and picked up the mask that fell on the ground.

"Did my brother bring you here?"

"Your brother probably doesn't know I'm here. He just left the house and doesn't know when he will be back."

"He went to work again, and sometimes it would take him two or three days to come back, and sometimes it would only be a few hours."

"It's so late, aren't you still sleeping?" Lu Mingfei felt a little awkward.

He originally came to be a spy, but ended up chatting like he was meeting his neighbor's sister.

The atmosphere was really harmonious. If it was in a cozy little room, maybe Eriyi would make him a cup of hot tea, and the two of them would sit on the sofa and play video games or watch anime together.

But the problem is that there is no TV or hot water kettle here, just cold steel plates and pale lights.

Lu Mingfei looked at the girl's eyelashes trembling slightly under the light as she wrote in her notebook.

She can speak, but when she speaks, she releases the "Death Realm" just like she did just now, so she always uses words instead of words.

"Can't sleep, I want to go out and play." Hui Liyi raised the notebook in front of Lu Mingfei.

"I understand, everyone has insomnia some nights, but do you usually sleep in a place like this? No wonder you can't sleep." Lu Mingfei said softly.

"No, my room is inside." Eriki shook her head, "I got lost after coming out of the room, but luckily I met Sakura."

"Lost? Don't you know the way either?"

"I don't know, but sometimes I can get out by just turning around. Sometimes, before I turn out, my brother will find me and take me back to the room."

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, looking through the square hole behind Eliyi and looking through the long corridor. At a glance, he could see several neatly cut squares and winding forks.

Eriki seemed to have been wandering around here for a while. She was already close to the exit. Judging from the fork in the road that Lu Mingfei walked, she might be able to get out if she wandered around for a few more minutes.

Just as Lu Mingfei was thinking about how to sneak out of Genji Heavy Industries, a note suddenly occupied his field of vision.

"While brother is not here, let's go out and play!" Eriki's eyes sparkled with excitement.

She looked like a bad girl who secretly wanted to betray her family. She raised her head and looked at Lu Mingfei's face expectantly.

Tokyo Bay.

The Maybach braked suddenly in the night.

The silky drizzle turned into a howling storm. The rain washed against the car windows, gathered into a curtain of water, and flowed downward.

The man in a suit held an umbrella. Yuan Zhisheng opened the car door and said, "Bring me the raincoat."

The waves rise on the beach, the wind howls, and the huge waves crash. There is a white light on the sea level under the dark clouds, as steady as Mount Tai, like a palace floating on the sea.

The unsinkable Sumeru Tower was jointly built by the Rock Flow Research Institute and Maruyama Architects.

This is an offshore floating platform. This is just one of the six Sheqi companies own. These platforms can operate at sea for a long time, such as exploring oil and seabed mineral veins, and are also slightly involved in the fishing industry.

Although it moves slowly, the Xumizuo is so heavy that even violent storms cannot tip it over.

The subordinates got a black raincoat for Yuan Zhisheng. Yuan Zhisheng put on the raincoat while walking to the port. Yasha was his boy with a knife.

"Is such a heavy rain a typhoon?" Yuan Zhisheng buttoned up his raincoat and walked onto the iron bridge Xumizuo built on the shore.

"Yes, 'Paxi' is expected to pass through the Sea of ​​Japan in a day. The government has issued a red storm warning. This is a strong typhoon of level 14. In the affected areas, schools and companies will be temporarily closed." Yasha responded.

"Is Horikoshi High School within the range?" Minamoto stepped onto the steel floor of Sumeru Tower and boarded the elevator to the upper floors.

The hum of the fan and the roar of the sea breeze filled his ears, and he couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Yes, but Horikoshi High School will only be closed for half a day. It will return to normal after noon!" Yasha also raised his voice.

"That's good. I haven't had time to tell Eriki yet. You will inform Sakura about this later and ask her to talk to Eriki tomorrow morning."

"Yes, young master!"

"Dad is here, there shouldn't be any accidents." Yuan Zhisheng murmured.

Although he is not at home, with Tachibana Masamune in charge, Eri probably won't mess around.

The elevator rises toward the top. The sea is like an angry giant with waves everywhere. There are 4 cargo ships moored next to the Xumizuo. The little ones are like toys compared with the big ones. They are swaying in the storm. It's really worrying. They will sink.

The ships were cargo ships from Germany, containing state-of-the-art diving bells they had ordered.

Yuan Zhisheng came to inspect the goods tonight. He also paid the balance and asked the Germans who made these diving bells to demonstrate how to use them.

At the top, hundreds of diving bells were neatly arranged, and men in white combat uniforms were checking the integrity of the equipment. They inspected the goods meticulously, and even opened the hatch to get in for debugging to prevent the purchase of low-quality counterfeit products.

The diving bell is an unpowered diving device that first appeared in the 15th century. The early diving bells were wooden, with a closed top and an open bottom, like a large bell in a temple, hence the name.

The principle of the earliest diving bell was very simple. It was a large cup that was turned upside down and could hold a person. When it came into contact with the water, it sucked in a part of the air and sank under its own weight. It could only float up by pulling it manually by people on the shore. .

However, modern diving bells have changed a lot. They have become closed spheres with a large white metal ring above and below for fixation.

Usually these tools are only used for maintenance work on underwater structures and offshore oil rigs.

But Sheqi Bajia has Xumizuo, six huge offshore platforms, each of which can hang hundreds of diving bells on the edge. When the Xumizuo moves on the sea surface, it can carry these diving bells with it. The divers analyze the sonar information individually. The reflected image is combined with the seabed image to initially determine the location of the divine burial site.

The Rock Flow Research Institute will conduct further analysis on these data, and then send out a small number of expensive unmanned deep submersibles to explore the most likely locations to improve efficiency.

Yuan Xiaosheng and the employees who worked late at night saluted, and at the same time, a German with a hooked nose and deep eyes was brought to him.

"This is the person in charge sent by Soller Company, Mr. Roland Tim."

The man in white work clothes introduced.

"This is our young master Yuan Zhisheng."

"It's an honor to reach this cooperation with you." Roland Tim shook hands with Yuan Zhisheng enthusiastically.

His Japanese can be clearly heard to have syllable problems, but it is still fluent. It seems that Soller Company also attaches great importance to this large transaction and specially sent a person in charge who understands Japanese.

"Sir, I swear, our products are impeccable! You have to believe that we take our products seriously and there will never be any quality problems!" Roland spoke with a strong voice, like a soldier, It sounds like it creates a sense of trust.

But Yuan Zhisheng always only speaks with facts: "Of course I believe you, Mr. Roland. If the follow-up inspection passes, the remaining balance will be immediately transferred to your company's account. Now, I hope you can help us." Demonstrate the specific performance of your products and teach our staff how to operate these complex instruments."

"Of course, this is one of our after-sales services. We also provide one-year replacement service. During this period, if the equipment is damaged due to quality reasons, we are willing to replace it with a new product for you, but I have to tell you one thing. Since the establishment of the company, our replacement record has been zero." Roland patted his chest and said proudly: "Let us introduce to you this latest UTFA-12 diving bell developed by Soller Company!"

Roland led the way, and they came to the elevator. Germans in black work clothes were connecting cables to the diving bell, and dozens of Japanese gathered around to study.

"This is a tethered diving bell. Although it is a new model, the technology is absolutely mature. It can accommodate up to three people for diving, transmits data through a control cable, and stores enough oxygen at a time to stay underwater for eight hours. It can dive up to 200 meters, breaking the diving record." Roland kept talking.

Xumizuo put away the anchor and sailed slowly towards the sea on such a rainy night.

Half an hour later, it finally stopped in a sea area.

A huge screen was moved over, along with a large awning to protect it from the wind and rain. The people from Soller Company opened the hatch of the diving bell and climbed in.

"Now let us give you a real-life demonstration, and the first-person perspective will be shared on the screen in real time."

The hatch is closed, the elevator lifts the diving bell, turns to the platform, the robotic arm and cables are like a high-tech fishing rod, and the round diving bell is like a buoy.

Because of its heavy weight, this hollow spherical metal instrument remained motionless even in a storm.

The external high-definition camera emitted white light, and a split screen appeared on the screen, one showing the inside of the diving bell and the other showing the outside.

"UTFA-12 is equipped with a high-definition underwater camera and is designed based on LED lighting technology. It is a highly reliable underwater camera system." Roland waved his hand.

The engine turned, the thick cable was slowly lowered, and the diving bell approached the sea surface little by little.

The staff's hands pressed back and forth on the precision instruments, the focus of the camera was adjusted, and the originally blurry external picture became clear.

The water layer from the surface of the ocean to the depth of 200 meters is called the upper layer of the ocean. The sunlight here passes through the sea water, and the sea water is bright and blue. The water layer from 200 meters to 1000 meters is called the middle layer of the ocean. All sunlight here cannot penetrate. The light in the seawater is very weak, and the seawater is gray-blue. When it is more than one thousand meters away, the seabed will turn into pitch black, like a deep black hole, swallowing everything, and even light cannot reach it.

Although the diving bell had just entered the water, it was late at night and visibility was still very low.

Yuan Zhisheng stared at the screen. Unlike the rough waves on the sea, there was calm under the sea level, and fish could be seen swimming by.

Roland unabashedly praised how excellent their equipment was and how clear the cameras were.

No one noticed that a tall figure wearing a tight diving suit jumped into the sea.

"Go, my girl, bring my pet back. I didn't expect to hear your voice again so early. Are you still tied up? Can you have a few minutes of free time every day?" someone said softly.

Under the sea, a huge black shadow passed by, wailing like a whale song, like a lost child.

"It's so sad. Was it also a rainy night when you were used as a sacrifice?"

The wind drowned out his voice, and the illusory figure disappeared.

The diving bell's sonar suddenly detected a high-speed moving object, accompanied by a huge whine. The sound overwhelmed the wind and tsunami, came from the bottom of the abyss, and filled the ears of everyone on the Sumeru Seat.

Even Angers, who was far away in Chicago, was awakened by the sound.

Because Norma judged that this was the cry of an ancient dragon, there was more than 90% chance that it came from a noble first-generation species.
