Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei returns from Sekiro

The green light on the communicator lights up, which means the communication status is connected.

It is now 2:09 in the afternoon. Professor Manns said that Principal Angers will arrive in Japan at 2 o'clock this afternoon. The principal is always punctual. He is the boss of Cassel. When the boss arrives, the younger brother below must support him.

The three of them had already made preparations to meet up with Kassel. Lu Mingfei quietly glanced at the back of Eli Yi's snow-white hand. The color of the veins seemed to be slightly darker. Tomorrow he would probably be like Lu Mingze. It is said that dark red blood vessels will appear on the back of Eri's hands.

This morning Eriyi asked Sidney for a pair of lace white gloves. She seemed to know that there were many problems with her body.

"Hey, this is Monyach." Ye Sheng's voice came through the speaker on the walkman.

"This is a safe haven. I am Lu Mingfei." Lu Mingfei put down the rice grains in his hand. When he heard the voice, he recognized it was Ye Sheng: "Ye Sheng, why are you here too? Is Aji here too? ?”

Eriyi also put down the red beans in her hand.

"I am the only one on the ship this time, and Aki stayed in China." Ye Sheng said: "The principal has arrived in Tokyo, and the Sheqi family is receiving him. The principal asked us to continue to wait. I contacted you at another time. Something happened."

Ye Sheng told the story about Jiude Aki's files and the boarding house.

"If you have free time, you can go there and investigate a little, be careful not to expose yourself, and contact you later."

The communication was disconnected and the Walkman returned to silence.

After all, this was a secret call, not a small talk, and the whole process took less than half a minute.

Chu Zihang whispered: "Dazi Mountain is 20 kilometers east of Zhendong Village. With our foot power, we can reach it within an hour."

The walking speed of ordinary people is about 3 to 5 kilometers per hour, and the running speed can reach 10 kilometers per hour. When athletes compete in marathons, faster runners can run 20 kilometers per hour.

The physical fitness of a Class A hybrid is several times that of an athlete. If it is flat ground, one hour is enough for Chu Zihang to run back and forth. This is a conservative estimate. After all, he does not know the terrain of Dazi Mountain. If he needs to climb a steep cliff, , it will take longer to advance in the deep mountains without roads.

"Let's go and have a look." Caesar stood up and stretched his body, his bones cracking. "Anyway, we are here to watch a variety show, so why not go out to bask in the sun and warm up."

Without saying anything, Chu Zihang picked up Murasame's sword bag beside him.

"Lu Mingfei, just stay here and take care of the mood of the head of the Uesugi family." Caesar patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder.

Lu Mingfei nodded, thinking that he didn't need to go with him. It was just a remote orphanage. It was impossible for the Sheqi family to have professional guards with guns everywhere in the orphanage.

Even if there is, Chu Zihang and Caesar are both excellent commissioners, and carrying a complete weapon box is enough to deal with most situations. His going is just an added advantage.

"Two hours of round trip." Chu Zihang put the sword bag on his back and glanced at his watch, "We will explore there for an additional two hours. If there are no unexpected circumstances, we will be back before 7 p.m."

After saying that, Caesar and Chu Zihang went out.

Lu Mingfei picked up the rice grains again and played chess with Eli Yi.

The girl's face was expressionless, but Lu Mingfei could faintly feel that she was a little unhappy. Lu Mingfei was supposed to make a move just now, but he was delayed for a few minutes because he was not paying attention to other things.

The three of them were talking in Chinese just now, and she couldn't participate at all. It was as if they were deliberately separated. No wonder she was unhappy.

Master Caesar taught Lu Mingfei a guide to picking up girls: girls will not have mood swings towards people they don’t care about.

If it's a date between ordinary friends, even if something happens midway, they usually won't be angry and will tell you understandingly, "It's okay. If you have something urgent, just go ahead and get busy."

Only people who are close to them can arouse their emotions.

If she doesn't care what you do, if you play games and ignore her, and she doesn't get angry, and if you don't accompany her, and she doesn't get angry, then she just doesn't like you and has no feelings for you.

The reason why couples quarrel over some inexplicable little things is actually because they still love each other. When there is no love, there won't even be quarrels. Pick a sunny afternoon and she will pack up and bow. , disappeared silently into your world, and you can never find her again.

So while there is still love, cherish the people around you.

Lu Mingfei was confused at the time, feeling that Brother Caesar was like Tang Monk, chanting sutras so loudly that the curse on his head tightened, but he had a very special feeling at this moment.

Seeing that Eriki was unhappy, his mood seemed to have worsened.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention while playing chess just now." Lu Mingfei said softly after making a move.

"Why do you need to apologize?" Eriyi raised the notebook in confusion.

Why apologize? of course because

Lu Mingfei's mouth opened slightly, but it was stuck.

Yes, why should he apologize?

He looked at the girl with her head tilted and lost consciousness for a moment.

It was approaching dusk, and the sounds of children playing could be heard from the shops outside the hall.

Sidney is still running the snack shop today. It is time for elementary school students to go home from school. The elementary school students who go home together with their schoolbags come to the snack shop to buy snacks with their pocket money saved by frugality.

Sidney said the store's best-selling snack is corn chocolate, but the most popular snack is tonkotsu cup noodles.

Corn chocolate sells best because it is relatively cheap and of course tastes good, while tonkotsu cup noodles are an extremely luxurious snack for elementary school students. In many cases, two or three people work together to pool their money to buy it.

The one who paid the most took the noodle cup, and the other two people stretched out their hands to eat.

Friendships between men can begin to take shape from an early age.

Sidney also saw a little boy and a little girl coming to buy cup noodles, but after making the noodles, the little boy waved his hand, suddenly said that his mother had something to do with him, and ran back home.

Sidney felt that being a snack shop owner was a very interesting profession. Although life here was dull, he never picked up a gun, and there was no feasting and entertainment like in New York, but he sat on a small bench, fanning a cattail leaf fan and slowly watched When the sun sets, you will feel particularly peaceful.

Lu Mingfei also longed for such a plain and simple life.

He and Eri opened the back door, sat under the eaves, and looked at the setting sun.

The sun coats the sunset clouds with a layer of pale gold, and light bursts out from the clouds like golden threads. The flowing clouds roll in the wind, climbing up the clouds like fire, and the burning horses gallop in the sky.

The tip of the girl's nose was also coated with a light layer of gold. She stared blankly at the setting sun, quiet and dreamy.

Sidney brought an apple cut into small teeth.

The children had all gone back to their homes to find their mothers, and he was about to prepare dinner.

It was six o'clock in the evening, and Chu Zihang and Caesar were not back yet.

Chu Zihang said that they would be back before seven o'clock. Due to Kaguya's existence, they did not carry any high-tech products that could communicate online, and Lu Mingfei was unable to contact them.

Lu Mingfei decided that after seven o'clock, if the two of them were still nowhere to be seen, he would set off to look for them.

As night fell and the sky darkened, Sidney served miso soup, fried shrimp, pickled radish and rice.

After dinner, Chu Zihang and Caesar still didn't come back, and Lu Mingfei felt a little uneasy.

"I'm going to Dazi Mountain to find them. Sidney, you stay here and wait for me to come back. I will tell Eriyi to stay well." Lu Mingfei picked up the wedge pill.

"Mr. Lu, the road to Dazi Mountain is difficult to recognize. At night, you might get lost alone." Sidney said.

"Don't worry, I have special traveling skills." Lu Mingfei showed off his left arm.

He used a hook to reach the 20-kilometer distance in ten minutes. Others might be afraid of cliffs, but for Lu Mingfei, this kind of place was like going home.

He didn't apply to play in the afternoon just because he wanted to accompany Eri Yi. Otherwise, if he played, both Chu Zihang and Caesar would be left with nothing behind him.

"I am stupid!" Sidney suddenly slapped himself, "I am so stupid that I would question you!"

"Calm down. Calm down." Lu Mingfei held Sidney's shoulders, turned to Eli Yi and said, "I have to go out and will be back soon. Eri Yi can stay here and wait for me to come back. ?”

Eriyi wrote in the notebook: "Can't you take me with you? I can also help."

"You don't need to take action." Lu Mingfei touched her head, "I can handle it by myself. How about you stay at home and wait for me to come back? I will take you out to play tomorrow."

"I understand." Eriki nodded.

Lu Mingfei asked Sidney to get some anime CDs from upstairs for Eriyi to play on the TV, and then went out.

In the night, the claws shot out and embedded themselves in the tree trunk in the distance, and his figure soared like a bird.

The sound of wind whizzed by his ears, and Lu Mingfei found some familiar feeling.

"Old Tang, can you feel the mark?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Go in this direction, that's right." Old Tang's voice penetrated the wind.

A long time ago, Old Tang had marked Chu Zihang and Caesar, not only these two people, but also Eliyi and Sidney.

Marks are the same in Old Tang's perception, just like teammates' light spots on the mini-map. When activated, he can roughly know where the person is. If the marked person dies, the mark will become invalid.

That night, Old Tang also marked the assassin who used Sword Control to control the poison blade, but when the assassin died, the mark became invalid.

Lu Mingfei was galloping through the mountains and fields, as if he had transformed into a gust of wind.

Old Tang showed him the way, and the outline of the mountains appeared in front of him.

"Very close."

Lu Mingfei stopped on this steep cliff. He stood on a thick branch, surrounded by dense forests.

This place is desolate and inhabited, and it doesn't look like an environment where people live.

When he came, he passed through a long stretch of wilderness and couldn't find a single house.

The place where this orphanage is built is too strange. It doesn't look like an orphanage at all, but more like a prison.

Some prisons for serious prisoners are built in places where birds do not lay eggs, such as isolated islands and uninhabited suburbs surrounded by desert. In this way, even if the prisoners escape and escape, there will be no place to hide. Staying outside is a dead end. Clearly informing prisoners of this will reduce their tendency to escape.

But what's the point of locking up a bunch of kids?

"It's nearby, go look for it." Old Tang said.

"Yeah." Lu Mingfei locked onto the highest cliff, his hook ejected, and he was pulled into the air, landing with an eagle leap.

The soles of my feet were covered with slippery moss, and the smell of earth penetrated my nose. Unknown wildflowers and weeds grew there. The dense forest blocked my view. There were tall trees everywhere, and even the moonlight could not penetrate.

Insects chirp in the deep mountains and old forests, and the atmosphere is a bit spooky. If there is another grave mound, it will feel a bit like a ghost movie shooting scene.

However, Lu Mingfei was not cold about this. He had developed his courage long ago. Even if he was asked to sleep among the dead, holding the knife, he would still be able to sleep soundly.

Lu Mingfei jumped again and climbed to the top of a tree.

Finally, he saw a dilapidated one-piece building at the end of the dense forest that looked abandoned.

"I found it." Lu Mingfei said.

"What does it look like?"

"It looks like a haunted house." At first, Lu Mingfei thought that the orphanage was just built on a deserted road in the suburbs, but he didn't expect it to be so deep.

"Tsk, it's a pity that I can't see it. I have experience in haunted houses. When I took orders from the hunter website, I went into the pyramids and saw mummies and zombies." Old Tang said excitedly.

"What's the difference from on TV?"

"How should I put it? They look uglier than on TV, and they also have a bad smell. Looking at them now, those things seem to be subspecies of dragons, and they are not real mummies and zombies."

"Stop talking yet. There may be someone inside. I want to go in quietly." Lu Mingfei slowly approached the building.

"It's really boring." Old Tang complained boringly and stopped talking.

Lu Mingfei hid in the darkness. It was very difficult to transport supplies when building a welfare home in such a place.

After getting closer, he found that the building had no signboard. The high cement wall blocked everything. There was only one entrance and exit. The door was an iron door. The unlocked lock showed signs of violent intrusion. It was very new and there was peeling rust on the ground.

It should be Caesar and Chu Zihang who did it, but why haven't they gone back after staying here for so long?

Lu Mingfei sniffed and smelled a faint smell of blood, which made him alert.

From the outside, this building is abandoned. All the rooms are dark, and there are no lights on in the windows. Looking through the crack in the door, there are slides and swings, but they are very old, and there are dirty accumulations on the slides. The water and the wooden bench of the swing are covered with withered yellow leaves.

However, it has not been abandoned for more than ten years. It has only been abandoned in the past year or two. Although weeds have grown on the ground inside, they are not so unscrupulous that they have covered every piece of land.

Lu Mingfei pulled out the knife, pushed open the door and went in.

The dead leaves felt soft to the touch when his feet stepped on them. He squatted down, erased his sense of existence, and moved forward silently.

Thanks to "Tuntun丶" for the 500-point reward, "Lin Suwu" for the 500-point reward, "Bubble-loving Silver Arowana" for the 200-point reward, and "ktzwzny" for the 100-point reward.

(There will be another update in the evening)
