Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei returns from Sekiro

"I'm going to study abroad. I can't chat with you anymore."

After typing this string of characters, Lu Mingfei canceled "The Notch of the Sunset".

Leave a thought for my cousin. After all, distance creates beauty. He can completely mold the "sunset" into the shape he likes in his imagination.

Switching to another QQ, the avatar of the girl wearing a baseball cap was still gray, and she did not reply to Lu Mingfei’s message.

Counting the time, the messages were all from two years ago.

He forgot what he said. When he opened the chat history, he found that he was asking Chen Wenwen if he would go to the literary club event tomorrow.

Chen Wenwen does not wear a baseball cap. She likes to wear white cotton skirts. Her long, soft hair always hangs down, which is very beautiful.

But the strange thing is that Lu Mingfei can no longer remember Chen Wenwen's face. He only remembers that the girl in the white skirt is very beautiful.

He tried hard to recall, and the slender figure gradually emerged, with white lace socks, square leather shoes, green and slightly undulating chest, white neck and collarbone, everything was so beautiful and exciting.

But when he reached the area above the shoulders, he only saw three large black Song-style characters hanging on a face without facial features, which read "Chen Wenwen".

He really couldn't remember what Chen Wenwen looked like.

After hesitating, he typed in the chat window: "I will not participate in the literary club activities tomorrow."

After thinking again, he changed the period to a comma and added "I'm sorry."

He collapsed on the sofa in the Internet cafe as if he was relieved.

It’s not that he still has any feelings for Chen Wenwen, it’s just that he suddenly discovered——

At eighteen, he was already so far away.

He felt an inexplicable feeling of loneliness, and vaguely, he heard the sound of bells in the distance.

The bell echoed, like the big copper bell of Xianfeng Temple.

He thought of the cold and damp underground waterways, of Ashina City where artillery fire was blaring, and of Senhoji Temple where strangers were not allowed to enter.

He was startled and looked at his intact left hand.

Why are there such monotonous bells? Lu Mingfei realized something was wrong, and his eyes immediately became dark.

He was in the Internet cafe. Even though he hadn't been here for a long time, he still remembered that there was no big clock nearby.

Moreover, there should be noisy keyboard sounds and curses all around. Where did these sounds go?

He regretted not bringing Kakimaru with him, which was his best friend, but it was obvious that it was a controlled knife. If he brought it on the street, he would be invited to the police station for tea by the uncle.

Although he had no weapons, he was still agile. He glanced at it, jumped up and rolled quickly, and picked up a mop stained with water from the Internet cafe toilet.

Lu Mingfei looked around. The internet-addicted boy surfing the Internet and the network administrator responsible for collecting money had disappeared. Only the glowing screen in front of the seat was left, but the game screen on it also disappeared and turned into the gray color of the old black and white TV. Broken flowers, and the noisy sound of electricity.

He clenched the handle of the mop and looked towards the exit of the Internet cafe.

He is a first-class escapist. In Ashina, if he wants to leave, no one can catch up with him.

But that was with the hook of Ninja's prosthetic hand, but even if it was just parkour speed, he was confident that he would leave any enemy behind.

"By the way, isn't this a harmonious society that values ​​science?"

"Do you feel lonely?"

A voice came from his original seat.

All the lights went out, and the world seemed to become a closed black box. Only two spotlights illuminated Lu Mingfei and the little boy sitting on the table.

The boy looked to be Chinese, about thirteen or fourteen years old. He was wearing a pure black suit, and his slender legs in square leather shoes were dangling under the table.

Her young face was glowing, her round face had delicate features, and she looked somewhere between a boy and a girl.

Lu Mingfei didn't know why such an old child showed the silence and sadness on his face that said, "I have lived for thousands of years."

The boy looked into his eyes, silently, as if looking at the sea.

The golden pupils were filled with flame-like light, like a mirror reflecting fire.

"Brother, when did your eyes become so deep?"

"Brother? Who are you?"

"I'm Lu Mingze."

"Lu Mingze?"

Impossible. Lu Mingze was obviously 160 centimeters tall, weighed 160 pounds, and had sores on his face due to the onset of puberty. There was no way he could match the handsome little boy in front of him.

"Exchange?" the boy asked softly.

"Exchange for what?" Lu Mingfei didn't understand what he was talking about.

"Exchange?" the boy asked again.

"Do you know Ashina City?" Lu Mingfei put down the mop in his hand and slowly approached the boy.

He didn't think this child could pose any threat to him, or maybe he subconsciously wanted to get close to this boy.

"Ashina. Castle?" The boy tilted his head.

"There is a kid named Jiulang there, who looks a lot like you." Lu Mingfei sat next to the boy, and two spotlights converged.

He felt an extremely strong sense of helplessness from the boy's body, as well as sadness and loneliness that seemed to have accumulated for thousands of years.

"He's just like you. He's good-looking, but he can smile. Come and smile." Lu Mingfei ruffled the boy's hair, pulled the corners of his mouth, and put on an ugly smile.

The boy quickly opened Lu Mingfei's claws, pouted, and put his hands on his hips, looking very unhappy.

"Who is Kuro? Why don't I know?"

"Jiulang is Jiulang." Lu Mingfei stroked the boy's head, "Don't worry, big brother is here. If you have anything to say, tell big brother."

Tears suddenly welled up in the boy's eyes, "Who is Kuro!"

He felt aggrieved like an innocent child whose parents had lost his beloved toy.

"Don't cry, don't cry." Lu Mingfei was in a hurry. He never made others happy.

Lu Mingfei put his hands through the little boy's arms and lifted him up high as if coaxing a baby.

"Come on, lift high, lift high."

The boy suddenly fell silent.

"You are such an annoying brother." He pouted and broke away from Lu Mingfei's arms.

"You seem to have changed a lot, brother. One day, I will find that guy named Kuro and have a fair duel with him."

"You can only be my brother, no one can take you away."

This sentence seems to reveal the coldness at the bottom of Glenling Glacier, but also carries the supreme majesty.

"Since you don't want to exchange, then I'm leaving." The boy turned around and snorted unhappily.

"If you want, you can come and play with me anytime." Lu Mingfei said.

"I don't want it, just stay alone!"

All of Lu Mingfei's will was swallowed up by the roar in an instant. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the Internet cafe that smelled of smoke.

"Cut a plate?" A big-faced cat avatar flashed on QQ, and its name was "Nono."
