Chapter 149 It Must Be a Special Fate
"What does Jiude say?"
My sister and future brother-in-law disappeared for no reason, especially in the territory of the ghosts. It doesn't seem normal no matter how you think about it.
According to common sense, we must go and rescue him.
But the relationship between the Jiude sisters does not seem as good as imagined, and Lu Mingfei is not sure what decision Jiude Mai will make.
They are already under suspicion. If they suddenly decide to run to Osaka at this critical moment, the people of the Sheqi Eight Clan would be considered crazy if they don't think too much about it.
Therefore, if Jude Mai wanted to rescue her sister and defeat the fierce ghosts on the way, the Susan delegation would have to find a reason to leave early.
"She said that since people from Kassel College were coming, there was no need for her to take action." Su Enxi sighed, "It's really tiring to be so arrogant."
“Isn’t she worried that Shude Aki and Ye Sheng will be caught and tortured?” It’s not that Lu Mingfei has a dirty mind or has some stereotypes. It’s just that some things are commonplace in Japan, and even if they are made into action movies, they will become a hot-selling series.
Moreover, even if they revealed their identities as commissioners of Kassel Academy after being arrested and their identities were not violated, there is no guarantee that the ghosts would not kill them in order to keep the secret of their bloodline.
Anyway, the person is dead, and the pressure is on the Sheqi Eight Clan.
"So when she received the news, she was already on her way to Osaka." Su Enxi said that some people said one thing and meant another, "She said she would just take a look and not go to save him."
Lu Mingfei understood. It seemed that this girl was not as hard-hearted as she said. She still had some feelings for her sister.
"What's the reaction from the Sheqi Eight Clan?"
"What else can it do? Send someone to look for it."
There was a sound of tearing a package from the other end of the phone, as if someone was eating potato chips in the middle of the night. "Now among the eight families of Sheqi, the Japanese branch of Kassel Academy is responsible for tracking down the whereabouts of the invaders and the head of the Uesugi family, the Kansai branch is responsible for handling the missing cases in Osaka, and the Kanto branch is responsible for causing trouble for you."
"Do you know who the specialist sent by Kassel College is?" Lu Mingfei finally asked the key question, with some anticipation in his eyes.
He knew that Chu Zihang was also an outstanding student representative in Kassel College. Even Nuonuo, a half-baked student, had the opportunity to go abroad for missions. There was no reason why Chu Zihang was not qualified.
Su Enxi simply read out three names:
"Caesar Gattuso, Finkel von Frings, and your senior from Shilan Middle School - Chu Zihang."
After that, she turned on Zhang Yu's song "For You" and played the chorus as background music: "So, are you surprised? Are you surprised?
The person you've been thinking about comes to you on his own initiative. Is this fate or coincidence?"
Hearing the words "It must be a special fate that we have become a family along the way", Lu Mingfei couldn't help but frown and hung up the phone.
Next to him, Old Tang, who had his mask on, handed over a Taiyaki. "What's going on? Any new developments?"
"People from Kassel College will be here tomorrow, and among them are two acquaintances." Lu Mingfei pushed the Taiyaki back. He just saw from the corner of his eye that Old Tang had the boss squeeze a full layer of mustard into the Taiyaki, and he was not fooled at all.
"Who is it? Do I know him?"
Old Tang didn't care and stuffed the snacks with added ingredients to a tourist who had his back to them. This guy had appeared next to them four times within half an hour. Whether he had the professional qualities of a plainclothes officer was questionable.
Lu Mingfei shook his head and ended the topic with a few perfunctory remarks.
Of course, Old Tang knew both of them in his previous life. Chu Zihang and his childhood sweetheart were studying at Harvard, and Old Tang was at MIT a few kilometers away. Because of Lu Mingfei, the two became friends and often made plans to go out for barbecues and camping on weekends.
Finkel said that he met Old Tang at an international business meeting. At that time, he accompanied his wife and acted as a bodyguard. As a result, he happened to sit next to Old Tang during the meeting.
After chatting for a while, they found out that they all played StarCraft and knew Lu Mingfei, so the two became familiar with each other and even completed a big deal.
After watching the movie, lunch time had already passed. Fortunately, I had bought a lot of snacks, so I was not very hungry.
Lu Mingfei originally wanted to take Eri out to eat something delicious, but she couldn't walk when she saw the delicious-looking fried chicken and French fries on the KFC billboard, so they could only have some American fast food.
"I say, we are now representatives of a well-known foreign capital. Is it appropriate for us to eat fried chicken at KFC instead of going to a star-rated hotel for a fancy meal?"
In Old Tang's opinion, their current behavior is like wearing suits and ties and eating at a food stall, which looks a bit weird.
It would be fine if they were eating local Japanese specialties, but the ubiquitous KFC is a bit unacceptable.
"Besides... Miss Witch is a rich lady. What if she gets acne due to getting irritated by eating this?"
Lu Mingfei was immediately astonished when he heard this. He held Old Tang's head and looked at him: "I thought your train of thought was quite novel, but I didn't expect you to be able to keep up with my pace. No wonder we are such good friends."
They are mixed-race, how could they get angry after eating fried food occasionally? !
"Get lost! Who wants to be your gay friend?" Old Tang slapped his hand away in disgust.
"Don't worry, no matter how badly we behave, they will find a way to get by." Lu Mingfei waved his hand, pointed at the category list and said arrogantly to the waiter:
"Give us one portion of everything except the ice cream."
As soon as these words were spoken, the masked quartet instantly became the coolest guys in the audience.
If it weren't for the subsequent intervention of several bodyguards in black and law enforcement officers disguised as passers-by, their table would probably have become a check-in spot for big eaters.
Eri alone ate a family bucket, three hamburgers, five servings of Colonel chicken nuggets, eight chicken wings and two bottles of King Coke. As for the onion rolls, egg tarts and French fries, Lu Mingfei didn't even have time to count them.
Old Tang looked at Eri, who ate elegantly but at a speed that could be described as a whirlwind, and couldn't help but bumped Lu Mingfei with his shoulder:
"Brother, this girl is such a big eater, are you sure you can afford it?"
Lu Mingfei was also shocked by Eri's horrible appetite. No matter how much she ate in her previous life, she could only eat three hamburgers and a cup of Coke at most.
But now this is just the amount of an appetizer, it's an epic enhancement.
"I can definitely afford it, but I'm thinking of suing the Sheqi Eight Clan for child abuse." Lu Mingfei thought it was absolutely abnormal for his wife to be so gluttonous.
It must be the Snake Eight Clan and that Tachibana Masamune elder who restricted Eri's diet, which led to her starting a retaliatory diet after she escaped.
In sharp contrast to Eri was Zero. This girl didn't eat those high-calorie foods at all. She just held a cup of Coke and bit the straw, looking like she was daydreaming.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Lu Mingfei asked her what was wrong and whether the food was not to her liking.
She said she had just had some popcorn and snacks.
The four of them ate and chatted, not caring at all about what others thought.
Lu Mingfei looked at the ketchup on Eri's face and took out a tissue to help her wipe it off, when he suddenly noticed a gaze that was very different from that of the other onlookers.
I turned around suddenly, but could only see the bustling crowd.
"What's wrong?" Old Tang looked over curiously.
"It's okay, it might be an illusion. I feel like someone is peeping at me." Lu Mingfei helped Eri wipe off the ketchup, thinking that he might be overthinking it.
"With our appearance, anyone passing by will have to take a look." Old Tang felt that he was making a fuss out of nothing.
Lu Mingfei and his companions had eaten and drunk their fill, but the five leaders of the Kanto branch in the parking lot were left with nothing to eat. Just when their patience was seriously overdrawn, a group of four who had enjoyed eating, drinking and having fun finally showed up.
The two sides had no interaction at all. Lu Mingfei pretended not to see anything and the leader of the Kanto branch did not go up to him to curry favor.
Akihabara is not far from the University of Tokyo, only about two kilometers away, and the group of four prepared to walk there.
The main reason for going there was that the Tokyo University Animation Club was holding an event, which made up for the regret that there was no comic exhibition in Akihabara.
It just so happens that Eri has never been to school, so I can take her to gain some knowledge.
"These guys are so annoying." Old Tang glanced behind him and found that the five annoying leaders of the Kanto branch were still following him slowly.
It was already conspicuous enough to have a few burly guys following behind, and now there were five guys who looked like young men from society sneaking in, instantly lowering the impression of the entire team.
This group of people is like a dog-skin plaster, you can’t kick them away or get rid of them, and their main attraction is disgusting.
"It doesn't matter. Follow me if you want. It's better to have them hanging around in front of you and being an eyesore than to plot something behind your back." Lu Mingfei was open-minded about it. At least with them following him, no brainless idiots would come up and cause trouble.
"Did Eri enjoy her meal?"
He didn't even ask if she was full, for fear that the girl would ask for two more fried chickens.
Eri nodded, burped a little, and smelled like fried chicken. She began to feel sleepy with a satisfied look on her face.
Seeing this, Lu Mingfei simply took her hand and walked out. At the same time, he took out his mobile phone and opened an app that Su Enxi gave him.
The colorful interfaces on the screen kept switching, and after nearly a minute of changes, it finally turned into a login interface that Chinese people are very familiar with.
Lu Mingfei skillfully entered his account and password, and immediately his cell phone started to ring, waking up the sleepy Eri, who looked towards him curiously.
"It's okay. I haven't been online for a long time and there are a lot of messages." Lu Mingfei smiled at her and then began to deal with the pile of unread messages.
He simply ignored the insignificant messages in the game group and the class group, and only replied to Su Xiaoqiang's series of "Where are you?" "Where did you go?" "Why are you missing before the college entrance examination?" "Are you still alive?" "Do you want me to help call the police?"
This straightforward girl's way of showing concern is also simple and rough.
"He's on Earth, just got out of the landing capsule, and is currently in good condition."
After reporting safety to Su Xiaoqiang, he clicked on an avatar with very few conversations. With his fingertips lightly touching the screen, he sent a short message: "Happy birthday, brother."
