Chapter 45: The family of three who disappeared
"Well, since your principal has decided to come to China to see me, will you continue to follow me?"
Lu Mingfei looked at Guderian, whose face was filled with excitement, and hoped that he would be tactful enough to return to the other side of the ocean to teach and educate people.
"Weren't you in a hurry to go to Russia before? Now you have nothing to worry about. Go ahead and don't keep others waiting."
"No need. I asked my student to help make the trip." Guderian took back his phone and took a look. He didn't see any new message from his beloved disciple. He probably hadn't met the freshmen in Russia yet.
But from now on he really couldn't follow Lu Mingfei anymore.
The college headquarters assigned him a new task, to go to Wuxia to take charge of the rear of the investigation team.
Although he is only a pure research talent and has basically not been to the front line for more than ten years.
But after all, I am listed in the executive department, so I am still in charge of the communication and coordination with the Chinese branch.
Moreover, his own combat capability is very worrying, and he cannot provide any protection by staying beside Lu Mingfei.
Rather than staying here and alerting Lu Mingfei and putting him on constant alert, it would be better to leave and have someone more professional protect him in secret.
In this way, even if they encounter any emergency, they can still concentrate on protecting one person.
"Where are you going next?" Guderian explained his situation and asked with concern.
"I plan to visit Baidi City. It is said that the Baidi Temple is very powerful." Lu Mingfei's plan depends on the situation.
If he can find the person, everyone will be happy. If he can't find the person, he will go to Baidi Temple to give Liu, Guan and Zhang a cigarette, hoping that the bond between the three brothers of Taoyuan can help him find Considine.
"Aren't you going to Wu Gorge?" Guderian couldn't help but express his curiosity. "Aren't you here for the Coffin Mountain?"
Lu Mingfei made up a story as if it was natural and self-righteous: "Guess why I want to go to Baidi Temple?"
"To exorcise evil?"
"How else can I pass Huazi to the Prime Minister?"
After the exchange and breakfast, Guderian left first.
Lu Mingfei saw through the window that he did not leave in a taxi, but was picked up by a black business Mercedes-Benz.
"Why are there people from Cassel everywhere? Is this the school of networking?"
Lu Mingfei frowned. Guderian’s departure did not make him let down his guard. He even became more alert.
If the old man's departure is a sign that they are about to take action, then there will probably be a tough battle to fight next.
I looked up at the hotel across the street and found that the curtains of the room where the peeping Tom was still drawn.
I don’t know if he was too embarrassed to face people after being discovered, or if he just moved to another place and continued to do his bad deeds.
I hope everyone is okay, Amen.
After carrying his bag and packing his equipment, Lu Mingfei headed towards Baidi Town.
After four or five hours of bumpy ride on the bus, we finally arrived at the town where Lao Tang’s hometown is located.
After walking around the street twice and failing to find the breakfast shop opened by Old Tang's parents, he decisively took a motorcycle taxi and trudged all the way into the village, only to find that not only was Old Tang's ancestral home nowhere to be found, he couldn't even find a person with the surname Kang.
Both the cadres of the village committee and the uncles and aunts from the Sixth Village Affairs Department said that there was no family with the surname Kang in the village, and no family had lost a child when they were young.
Unconvinced, Lu Mingfei bought two axes from a fellow villager and ventured into the mountains alone, fully equipped.
He went deep into the place where Old Tang's parents were buried, and saw that it was just a steep hillside, with no new or old graves at all. Only then did he have to accept the reality.
Old Tang’s entire family is gone.
"How the hell could this happen?!"
Lu Mingfei sat down on the ground, with the hatchet in his hand stuck into the ground, looking at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, but his eyes could not hide the disappointment and even despair.
Originally, he had prepared for the world line to change again and for Old Tang's parents to pass away early, but who knew that the three of them would all disappear from the face of the earth.
Lu Mingfei scratched his sweat-soaked hair in annoyance and really had the urge to roar out loud.
"Damn it, how can I face Old Tang now?"
I thought that if I could start over again, Old Tang could make up for the regrets of his previous life, but I didn't expect that I would end up making him a lonely man.
If there was a crack in the ground in front of him, Lu Mingfei would have wanted to hide in it.
"Which bastard made me reborn? I'll be in big trouble if I catch him!"
After spitting, Lu Mingfei picked up the knife, put it in his bag, turned around and walked back the way he came.
He was as fast as the wind when he entered the mountain, but he was full of worries on the way back. The expressionless boy kept his eyes and ears open, always guarding against possible traps and hidden arrows.
When we entered the mountain, the familiar feeling of being watched appeared again, and the number was even greater than last time, and there was also a creepy sense of crisis.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He was no stranger to this feeling of being locked in.
On the hillside eight hundred meters away, in the shadows covered by the trees, a slender metal gun barrel peeked through the dense leaves. A beautiful female soldier in black combat uniform was ambushing on the branches in a standard sitting position, shooting.
A pair of cold eyes observed the young man walking in the mountains through the sniper rifle's scope, and the crosshairs always followed the thin figure holding two knives.
"Potato Chips, I feel like he's really angry right now. The way he holds the knife looks like he's waiting for someone to jump out and fight him to the death."
The heroic female sniper held a swaying blade of grass in her mouth and chatted with the potato chip girl on a satellite phone.
"Then do you want to help him vent his anger? Cassel's men are following behind him. With your marksmanship, it won't be a problem to shoot him in the head from 800 miles away."
"If I really had such a powerful gun, I would definitely blow your head off first." Long-legged Sailor Moon rolled her eyes, "Have you figured it out? What on earth is Lu Mingfei looking for? And what are those guys from Cassel doing over there in Wuxia, ignoring their mission from the Executive Department? Team building?"
"There is too little useful information, and the boss is hiding it and won't tell me anything. Even a good cook cannot cook without rice." There was always a crackling sound in the background when someone was talking on the other end of the phone.
"But the movements of the people from Kassel College are a bit strange. Four specialists are disguised as a couple and wandering around the hanging coffin mountains in Wu Gorge. According to the information sent back by the spies, they seem to be looking for something just like Lu Mingfei."
"Did they find it?"
"Nothing was found. If no one was watching, they might have climbed up to open the box and conduct an autopsy."
Lu Mingfei, who had been on guard against unexpected situations all the way, never got the chance to vent his anger and walked out of the mountains safely.
"You are a bunch of cowardly rats. You dare not show up even though I am alone. All my preparations have gone to waste."
After returning to the village, he took a tractor tractor ride to the town. Finally, there was a signal. Lu Mingfei opened QQ and prepared to ask the rich woman for help with his passport and visa issues.
After experiencing this series of disappearances of relatives and friends, no matter how big-hearted he is, he is now really panicked.
What about becoming famous in the WCG StarCraft, what about following the routine and waiting until adulthood to go abroad, what about going to the Baidi Temple to gather the three brothers of Taoyuan, what about following the original trajectory of history to prevent the butterfly effect, all of that can go to hell.
He will fly to France now! Immediately! Right now!
Then, the moment QQ is opened, a friend request pops up.
"Murasame would like to add you as a friend."
