Chapter 334: The Lu Family is Destroyed, and the Chu Family is Gone
On his way back, Chu Zihang also learned about the unusual movements of the Hunter Organization, but he did not think that those guerrillas could cause any trouble to Kassel Academy.
When they returned to the hotel, Lu Mingfei told him that he was going to the mountain city in the next two days, as there were still some things he hadn't dealt with last time, so he asked Chu Zihang if he wanted to go with him.
With Angers keeping an eye on Kassel College, no one can order Chu Zihang around. He is an important link in maintaining the relationship with Lu Mingfei, so he is completely free now and doesn't have to worry about accidentally entering the mission area of the executive department.
And if Professor Mans knew about this, he would probably applaud and feel relieved.
Chu Zihang had no objection to this.
As for whether Xia Mi will follow at that time, it’s hard to say.
Lu Mingfei also said that there was no need to worry about her, as long as she did not cause any abnormality in Old Tang, she would be safe.
Shao Nanyin, who was lurking beside Xia Mi, has not been able to send back any valuable information so far.
With Old Tang by her side, the possibility of her betrayal is very small. However, with her limited skills, even if Xia Mi really has any plans, she will never entrust them to her.
Let's just leave it like this for now.
The night is deep and everything is silent.
The next morning, Lu Mingfei woke up from his sleep and reached out his hand out of habit, but his arms were still empty.
He blinked, and the remaining warmth of the dream dissipated like morning dew.
He looked down at the Autobot leader who had just woken up in the morning, shook his head and lamented that this was how teenage boys were. It was a pity that there was no place for him to use his skills for the time being.
After washing up, Eri hadn't gotten up yet, so he planned to go to the restaurant to eat and pack a portion for her.
I don’t know what Old Tang and Finkel did last night, so they just stayed overnight next door.
Chu Zihang got up very early, but this time he didn't go to find Xia Mi. Instead, he went to the gym and sweated profusely.
It was probably because after being dragged by Xia Mi to soar into the sky for most of the day yesterday, he urgently needed to use the weight of the barbell to reconfirm the existence of gravity.
With no one to accompany him, Lu Mingfei came to the restaurant. The food he ordered had not yet been served. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something and looked up in the direction of the elevator.
The elevator door opened, and a young man in a suit and tie walked out. The well-tailored suit outlined his tall figure. He looked gentle, handsome, and exuded the calm demeanor of a business elite.
His goal was clear, and he locked onto Lu Mingfei's position the moment he entered the restaurant. He raised a perfect smile and walked over with steady steps.
"Student Lu Mingfei, nice to meet you."
The young man stopped two steps away from the dining table, with a decent smile on his face, and greeted Lu Mingfei.
His attitude was respectful but not humble. He neither took the seat rashly nor moved so close that Lu Mingfei had to look up at him. His sense of propriety was impeccable.
“Hello, may I ask who you are…” The other party was so polite that Lu Mingfei naturally would not make things difficult for him. He always adhered to the principle of “If someone respects me one foot, I will return him one yard; if someone oppresses me three points, I will send him off on his seventh day of mourning.”
Seeing Lu Mingfei stand up, without the arrogance typical of young geniuses, his handsome face showed just the right amount of politeness and doubt. Zhou Minhao then took two steps forward and stretched out his hand:
"My name is Zhou Minhao, from the Zhou family in Xiangyang."
“Hello, hello. I’ve heard a lot about you.” Lu Mingfei didn’t know the Xiangyang Zhou family, but since they dared to introduce themselves like that, they must have a long family history. He casually exchanged greetings as he extended his hand to shake his.
"It seems that I have disturbed your meal." Zhou Minhao knew at a glance that Lu Mingfei was being polite, so he didn't take it seriously. After confirming that there was no disgust in his eyes, he said:
"It just so happens that I haven't had breakfast yet. I wonder if I could have the honor of sitting with you? We can talk while we eat."
The way he spoke was quite consistent with Lu Mingfei's stereotype of children from aristocratic families, who liked things that were neither ancient nor modern.
"Of course." Lu Mingfei also wanted to learn more about the mixed-blood forces in the country, so he invited him to sit down: "Mr. Zhou, did you just get off the plane? What's the rush?"
"No, I came here on a red-eye flight last night. It's just that it's inconvenient to bother you so late at night, so I waited until the morning to visit." Zhou Minhao smiled and answered Lu Mingfei's question:
"Actually, it's not urgent, but the elders at home are worried and are pushing us a little bit."
He didn't keep anyone in suspense and went straight to the point: "Mingfei, have you ever heard of the Solomon's Temple?"
Although this guy looked polite, he was actually the type who was trying to climb up the social ladder. Seeing that Lu Mingfei was easy to talk to, he started to get close to him by addressing him.
According to the intelligence collected by the Zhou family, Lu Mingfei had contact with the secret party, and there was suspected to be an unknown force providing support behind the scenes, so this question arose.
“I’ve heard of it.” Lu Mingfei nodded. He didn’t care about the issue of address.
Just like in his previous life, when everyone called him “Road God” and “Road God”, his attitude would not change drastically just because someone called him “Old Road” or “Small Road”.
"That's easy to say." Zhou Minhao nodded, but still briefly explained the routine operations of the Solomon Temple: "...They have always coveted the superior bloodline in the East, and now, their new target is you."
"It seems that I am really popular." Lu Mingfei smiled.
"In fact, from the moment the news of your killing of the White King spread, you have become the focus of the global mixed-blood forces. However, due to the deterrence of the secret party, most people dare not act rashly."
Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows: "In the eyes of outsiders, I am just a piece of meat in the mouth of the secret party?"
"No, it's just that the leader of the secret party, Ange, once said privately that you are his most ideal successor, so no one wants to offend him." Zhou Minhao shook his head.
“What about you guys?” Lu Mingfei was not interested in the Society of Solomon’s Temple. He was not promiscuous and he cherished his ancestral chromosomes very much. He would rather flush them to the toilet than tell anyone else.
In response to this question, Zhou Minhao simply said: "This is China."
His tone was calm, yet it revealed unquestionable authority.
In just five words, they fully expressed the confidence of the oriental mixed-blood family. Even if they were as strong as Angers, they had to abide by the oriental rules in this land and could not run rampant like they did in Japan.
Lu Mingfei's mouth twitched slightly, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak. If he hadn't intervened last time, the Moniah of Kassel Academy would have drifted on the Yangtze River.
Even though the versatile warship failed to come in, Kassel Academy still put on a real-life CF biochemical mode battle in Wu Gorge.
"Well, the previous incident in Wushan was an accident. I didn't expect that Kassel College would sneak in." Zhou Minhao noticed Lu Mingfei's little eyes, coughed twice and explained:
"You know, China has been good at civil wars since ancient times, and even better at foreign wars.
The mixed-blood families have different ideas and it is difficult for them to unite as one. It is only natural for some of them to want to cooperate with foreign countries to gain greater benefits. "
To sum up, there is a traitor in this mixed-race family.
Who is it? It’s so hard to guess ().
Lu Mingfei came up with the answer in an instant and successfully defeated 99.99% of users across the country.
"Then the Temple of Solomon will target me, why are you so anxious?" Lu Mingfei did not point out the point that you know, I know, and everyone knows but it is not easy to say it on the table. Instead, he was concerned about the attitude of the mixed-blood family towards him:
"Am I now a national treasure giant panda in your eyes, and am I forbidden to leave without permission?"
Pandas are creatures that look adorable on the outside, but actually have sharp claws and fangs, and can be both cute and fierce, which is quite similar to him.
"You are more like a panda than a national treasure." Zhou Minhao smiled, his eyes sincere and restrained:
"Of course, we have no right to interfere with your choices and decisions, but Solomon's Temple will plot ill and act deliberately and insidiously, so we must be on guard."
What I mean is that you are still young and I am afraid you can't control yourself.
Just like in the novels about cultivation, the elders of each sect will secretly look after the talented disciples who have just entered the world. They will not interfere with your training, but will block those shameful plots for you.
"You should know that Kassel Academy sent people to protect me."
"They are them, and we are us." Zhou Minhao shook his head.
Although they are all compatriots, they belong to different organizations after all.
For example, in the operation at Kuimen, the spoils obtained by the Chinese commissioner of Kassel College after completing the mission will only be handed over to the executive department and stored in the underground ice cellar in Kassel. It is impossible for them to remain in the country.
"I see." Lu Mingfei nodded slightly and asked a question that was buried deep in his heart: "Then why did you allow Kassel College to recruit talents and set up branches in China?"
"I am not strong enough, and I am beyond my reach." Zhou Minhao said this without any embarrassment, he sighed softly, and a bit of helplessness appeared between his brows: "China has a vast territory, and there will always be some things that are neglected.
Take me for example. As the person in charge of the Zhou family in Kunshan, I am responsible for handling all the affairs of the mixed-bloods and dragons in Kunshan.
But in reality, I am just an insignificant little figure in the Zhou family. My bloodline and strength are average, and I am usually only responsible for managing the family's business projects.
There are only crabs in Kunshan, and I can't find any other hybrids except me.
To be honest, before I came here, I was investigating a woman who was suspected to be a high-level mixed-blood. I finally established a connection and agreed to attend the party together tomorrow, but as soon as the head of the family called me, I flew here directly. "
As he said this, he spread his hands and said, "There is nothing we can do. We are really stretched to the limit and short of manpower.
In this world today, there are very few people willing to meddle in other people's affairs like us."
The mixed-bloods of the new era prefer to pursue wealth rather than responsibility, and it has long been an unspoken rule that each family takes care of its own business.
Don't cross the boundary and cause trouble. I will stay at your place quietly and not cause any trouble.
“By the way, I hope Mingfei won’t be offended by something.” Zhou Minhao suddenly remembered something and added apologetically, “It’s not that the Zhou family is negligent and didn’t send a respected elder to come.
The head of the family thought about it again and again and felt that the older generation was too rigid about etiquette and that it would be better for us young people to have a good chat. "
"It's okay. This is exactly what I want." Lu Mingfei smiled. He could actually feel that Zhou Minhao in front of him had excellent pedigree. Even if he was from Kassel College, he would be an A. When he was being modest:
"I rejected Kassel Academy because they sent an old man to negotiate with me. The generation gap is as deep as the Mariana Trench."
This is a lie.
Guderian roared, he was not even fifty years old, he just didn't know how to dress up and overused his brain that made him look older, the principal was the real old guy!
"In fact, it is also due to the situation. The members of the Kassel branch are basically Chinese. They really stand up when something happens."
Zhou Minhao could actually understand those compatriots: "Unfortunately, the mixed-blood families in China have always paid more attention to bloodline and inheritance, and rarely recruit mixed-bloods who have awakened on their own, unless they are adopted from childhood."
Prejudice between families has a long history, and even the Zhou family is no exception.
Lu Mingfei said he understood: "Then your Zhou family's position in China is similar to that of Kassel College. We are all firefighters, and we will go wherever there is a dragon."
"That's probably the case. Our Zhou family has strict family rules. We don't care about the outside world, and we don't want the outside world to interfere in our affairs." Zhou Minhao poured a glass of water to moisten his throat. "Generally, we only stand up when it comes to dragons, or when European hybrids try to infiltrate."
This time, the Zhou family had no intention of interfering at first. After all, this place was actually the territory of the Chen family branch.
But the Chen family is very close to foreign forces, and sometimes their relationship is so good that they are like one family. Moreover, the head of the Chen family is also famous for his hard work in cultivating offspring with strong bloodlines. The Zhou family is worried that they will do something to embezzle and be destroyed by Lu Mingfei, so they sent people to protect them.
As they were talking, the waiter came over with breakfast, and the two of them ate and chatted. The topic was not limited to one thing, and there was always a lot to talk about between young people.
For example, Lu Mingfei asked, his ancestors were rich, his grandfather's grandfather was a member of the first generation Lionheart Society, and whether the Zhou family had any records related to this.
Zhou Minhao said that the Lu family used to be a big family, but it was a pity that the head of the family fell on the eve of victory and died abroad without even leaving a body. After that, there was a long war that directly broke up such a big Lu family.
Lu Mingfei was deeply moved when he heard this. The war at that time swept the whole world and no one could remain immune. Even the Chen family, which is now being criticized by others, had many passionate sons and daughters who stood up to defend the country.
Halfway through the conversation, the elevator door opened again. Chu Zihang, who had just finished working out and taking a shower, went downstairs to have breakfast. He was a little surprised to see Lu Mingfei sitting and chatting with a young man he didn't know.
"Brother, you've come just in time. This is the representative of our local Xiangyang Zhou family, Mr. Zhou Minhao." Lu Mingfei invited him to have dinner together and introduced the two of them:
"This is my senior brother Chu Zihang. He single-handedly killed nine A-level Deadpools in Japan. He is the future leader of Kassel Academy."
"Hello." It was Chu Zihang's first time to come into contact with the mainland Chinese forces. He greeted them politely and took a seat.
"Nice to meet you." Zhou Minhao had also read the information before coming and knew that this classmate Chu Zihang found Kassel College on his own after awakening.
Moreover, his last name also struck Zhou Minhao as a coincidence.
It’s just that Chu Zihang’s background is special. His mother took him to remarry and his father disappeared in a car accident, so it’s not convenient to inquire about him.
But Lu Mingfei had wanted to ask for a long time, and when they met, he told Zhou Minhao about Chu Tianjiao's situation, wanting to see if he could learn something from him.
Chu Zihang understood what he meant and added, "He said he is from another place, his family is very rich, and he is a second-generation rich man."
I used to think he was just bragging when he was drunk, but now when I think back on it, I feel sad that I never really understood that man.
Of course, the responsibility does not lie with him. He is the one who has been kept in the dark from beginning to end.
Zhou Minhao heard this and said without hesitation: "Then your father should be from the Chu family in Beijing!"
He is the only son in a generation, his family has fallen into poverty, but he has astonishing wealth, has traveled across the ocean, is romantic and likes to eat braised food. He must be a member of the Chu family without a doubt.
