Dragon Clan: Thought So Far

Chapter 169 168. Hui Liyi’s Autumn Strategy (1)

Today, Sakura drove Minamoto's Hummer. The high-powered off-road vehicle roared into the traffic and drove out of Shinjuku, past Chiyoda, across the river eastward, and across the Edogawa River, and finally entered Urayasu City, Chiba Prefecture near noon.

At Lu Mingfei's request, Ying took them to find the famous Shizuoka Oden. It said it was Oden, but it was obviously more like a coffee shop. When they arrived at around ten o'clock in the morning, there was actually a city employee wearing OL uniforms. White-collar workers were using their laptops and leaning over the table to do business, and a few teenagers who were probably middle school students nearby were whispering about something that made them laugh with each other.

This oden restaurant appeared in a Japanese drama called "The Lonely Gourmet". Lu Mingfei only roughly remembered it in the first season, but he had no memory at all after a few episodes. Although Sakura has never been here, She still has some experience in eating oden, but Eri is a little fussy about this kind of civilian food.

"This is the craft tea ordered by several guests. Please enjoy it." The middle-aged man with a white scarf on his head smiled and served tea to several people.

Eriki sat a little reservedly next to Miss Sakura. Although she was wearing sports clothes, her eyebrows were lowered, her long eyelashes were trembling slightly, and there was a light shadow in her beautiful red eyes, so Everyone can tell from the first glance that she is actually a shy girl.

But even though she was shy, Eriyi was still peeking at Lu Mingfei. Lu Mingfei could realize this, and so could Sakura. Both of them were a little uncomfortable. Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed because of Ying's presence, while Ying felt inexplicably awkward as if she was projecting lights in all directions.

"Drink tea, drink tea." Lu Mingfei cleared his throat, and Sakura suddenly understood and turned her face away to avoid looking at Miss Eriyi's embarrassment with the corner of her eye. The head of the Uesugi family has probably never had any contact with outsiders. Of course she also understands etiquette, integrity, and tact and shyness, but she is terrible at pretending. Although her water-cut eyes are hidden in the shadows of her eyelids, they are as bright as It is filled with stars.

It is said to be craft tea. In fact, it is to add specially processed flowers that have been dried in the tea bag, and add some edible natural spices. After soaking in hot water, the tea bag is spread out, and the dried flowers will bloom. Ying ordered jasmine tea for herself and Lu Mingfei. There was a jasmine flower wrapped in the tea. The tea leaves soaked in boiling water slowly spread in the steaming transparent cup, and then the jasmine flowers inside seemed to be really blooming. Same. The cup of Eriyi's cup was cherry blossom tea, which contained more than one cherry blossom. It was pink and white. Eriyi lay down and rested her chin on her arm on the table, looking through the tea and the glass. Watch the pink and white cherry blossoms gradually bloom.

Through the cup of sakura tea that was still steaming, Eriki could see a face that seemed hazy in the mist. She smiled happily, and the blurry shadow looked at her through the cup and water.

Eriyi raised her head and tilted her head. Her eyes were clean and bright, like a flowing spring, looking at him alive.

Lu Mingfei suddenly saw Eliyi's gaze looking over at her. It was a kind of confusion that was unique to her and seemed to be shrouded in mist. He did not dodge, because he finally had the opportunity to seriously and carefully look at this person who came from the same place as himself. A girl with a sad fate. She has been waiting for him here for a long time, and it must be very hard.

There seems to be a touch of emotion growing like a vine, growing in the mist that spreads between tea conversations. The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and fine dust was dancing in the light that filtered through the gaps in the blinds. The girl smiled lightly, her red eyes filled with bright sunlight, as if the golden light was gathered into her pupils.

"If you need anything later, Lu-kun, you can call me or send me a text message directly, and I will come to pick you up and Miss Eriki. If you want to try the Tokyo subway system, you can go to JR Shin-Urayasu Station. This place is very close to Meikai University and Urayasu City Comprehensive Park. It will be very lively at night. You can go back to Genji Heavy Industries after playing." Miss Sakura couldn't help it anymore and cleared her throat.

Fortunately, the boss brought the oden they asked for at this time. It's nothing more than lotus root, eggs, white radish and tofu puffs, but they are all completely black. Ms. Sakura also ordered beef tendon. It is said that the beef tendon here is stewed so soft that it will melt in one bite.

The aroma of meat and vegetables hits your face, and each dish is sprinkled with a little seaweed and bonito powder. This is the most authentic all-black oden in Shizuoka.

"I'll call Miss Ying if necessary!" Lu Mingfei said. Ying helped Eriyi put a large piece of radish on the plate in front of her. The heat was rising. Eriyi carefully took a bite. Eyes sparkling.

Hui Liyi immediately took out her little notebook, wrote something in it and then held it up to Lu Mingfei to see, "It's delicious."

——

"Do we have to monitor them like this all day long? Look at that oden restaurant. I want to eat it too." In the black Lexus car, Caesar used a telescope with one eye open and the other closed. Went to see Lu Mingfei and his friends enjoying morning tea in Shizuoka Oden. Speaking of which, Young Master Gattuso is from an absolutely famous family and has always disdained things like oden. However, they did some research before setting off and knew that Shizuoka oden is the most famous restaurant here.

As we all know, the young master of the Gattuso family may not have eaten the best food, but he must have eaten the best food.

"Anyway, there are no arrangements for today. The things you want to buy have been packaged and sent back to the school by people from the Sheqi Ba family." Chu Zihang said, his posture was almost exactly the same as Caesar's, the difference is that this one is obviously more dedicated.

"Who said there are no arrangements? I'm going to visit Meiji Shrine. My bastard father told me that if I get married one day, I must hold a wedding at Meiji Shrine. I also want to see it. The wedding scene!" Caesar said, but his eyes did not leave Lu Mingfei and Eryi.

"Why?"

"Why must the wedding be held at Meiji Shrine?" Caesar was stunned for a moment.

Chu Zihang put down the telescope for the time being and looked at Caesar, who was across the back of the seat next to him, "Why would someone like you want to get married?" he said, without any intention of being polite. The corner of Caesar's mouth twitched: "You're asking that kind of question like you're asking why I poop."

"Excretion is a necessary metabolic process of the human body and cannot be avoided. However, marriage is a cage for people like us. Once we enter, it is difficult to escape. Not only does it not bring us any help, but it will Let us slow down the speed of swinging our swords." Chu Zihang said.

Caesar was silent for a few minutes: "I admit your point of view. Women will indeed affect the speed of my sword. But one day in the future, if there is a chance, I will still get married."

"marry?"

"Responsibility. People like you don't understand." Caesar waved his hand and continued his surveillance work. This was his counterattack to Chu Zihang's words just now. Chu Zihang was not angry and raised the telescope again.

The car suddenly became a little quiet, and the tobacco-scented men's perfume was gradually evaporating.

"If you also want to eat oden, I ordered takeout for you and ordered my own portion." Chu Zihang said suddenly.

Caesar was a little surprised: "When did you order takeout?"

"Just now, when you went outside to smoke, I heard your stomach growling, and I was a little hungry too."

"When I was in college, members of the student union would always tell me that you were a meticulous person. I didn't believe it then, but I believe it now." Caesar said,

"But I still want to say that it is really impolite and ungentlemanly to spy on a date between a boy and a girl. If I was followed by my father when I was dating a French royal princess when I was young, I would probably kick him Go into the river."

"First of all, I want to say that we are not voyeurs, this is called surveillance. Secondly, you are still very young now, and your date with the French princess is at best a young love affair during your student days." Chu Zihang looked indifferent.

His expression suddenly became serious: "And is the head of the Uesugi family really just an ordinary girl with some physical illnesses? I am the leader of the group. Of course I can get more information from the principal, but as Cato, Caesar The future leader of the Suo family probably knows a lot, right?"

"The Jaki Hachi Family, the Fierce Ghosts, Minamoto Shosei, Uesugi Eriki, the King General, the Dragon King... Japan is really not at peace. Our actions have been progressing so smoothly so far. To be honest, I never expected it. ." Caesar said. He and Chu Zihang finally put down their telescopes. Miss Ying was accompanying Lu Mingfei and Eryi. It was expected that those two people would not disappear suddenly.

"The information we have received is that the head of the Uesugi family is probably a super hybrid with abilities close to those of ancient species. Her physical problem is not a disease, but a curse. It is the dragon's blood that cursed her."

The Sheki Hachi family always thought that they had kept everything about Eriki confidential, but the family heads never seemed to have thought that it would only be seventy years since this huge ruling group entrenched in Japan's shadow society began to flourish again. In the past seventy years, Japan has experienced many integrations with outside civilizations, and the eight Sheqi families have inevitably been infiltrated by the academy and ancient mixed-race families in Europe.

For example, Fujiwara Shinnosuke, who currently works for the Gattuso family, his mother is actually a member of the Inuyama family, but although his talent and bloodline are far inferior to Inuyamaga, compared to Inuyamaga's Setsuna, Fujiwara Shinnosuke's Time Zero is obviously more Mystery is also more dangerous.

Although many of the chess pieces that had infiltrated the Sheqi family have been removed from Tachibana Masamune's governance in recent years, there are still many chess pieces that remain. They are always attacking the secret party and the big shots in the entire mixed-race world. Report all the information about this behemoth that dominates Japan.

"This is why I must monitor her. Uesugi Eriki is more dangerous than the Dragon King in a sense. The information given to me by the academy is that there is a high probability that her Kotōrei is above the Kotōrei sequence list 101. A high-risk spirit, such power is in the hands of a person who may lose control at any time." Chu Zihang said, "From the tone of the principal, it seems that she will lose control at any time, but she is also very weak. If she is taken out of Genji Heavy Industries That must be something that must be closely monitored.”

"Extremely strong and extremely weak coexist. The dragon's blood strengthens her and destroys her on the one hand, so she can only live in the special medical environment set up for her by the Sheqi family." Caesar said, the Gattuso family The intelligence capabilities are not weaker than those of Cassel Academy, and their penetration into this country has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. "But it seems to me that it is difficult for the Uesugi family head to lose control when he is with Lu Mingfei."

"We cannot place the safety of a country on your subjective assumptions, Caesar." Chu Zihang said.

"How did the principal arrange it?" Caesar suddenly asked.

Chu Zihang hesitated for a moment, "He said that the matter of the head of the Uesugi family should be left to Lu Mingfei. If he thinks she is safe, then we don't need to worry about it. If he thinks she is not safe, then he will naturally... do the right thing. thing."

"In terms of restricting a high-risk hybrid, Lu Mingfei is indeed more suitable than us, and I think that little girl trusts him." Caesar said, "Also, what is the right thing the principal said?"

"Kill her." Chu Zihang said. He slowly rubbed the rasp stone back and forth on Murasame's blade, making a rustling sound.

"If she really loses control, or if the head of the Uesugi family is eventually determined to be used by the Sheqi Hachi family for wrong things, then Lu Mingfei will kill her. This is what the principal told me, but I don't believe he will do it."

"I'll light a cigarette." Caesar squinted his eyes, opened the window without waiting for Chu Zihang's consent, and bit off the end of the cigar with his teeth. It should have been cut with a cigar, but the conditions here are limited, so there is no limit. Be particular about it. Soon white smoke rose, and the sunshine after the rain was clean and clear, falling through the smoke into Caesar's ice-blue eyes.

"This is fucking war." Caesar whispered. He took out his Desert Eagle from his waist and threw it to Chu Zihang in the front row. "Open it and take a look."

Chu Zihang did not hesitate and unloaded the bullet inside. There was actually only one. The bullet of the thing facing the sun was transparent, and the inside was covered with seaweed-like red filaments. All filaments grew from a seed-like core. come out.

"This is..." Chu Zihang's heart palpitated, and he felt that the ancient king slowly opened his eyes in front of him,

"Philosopher's Stone?"

He and Caesar accepted the Nibelungen Plan arranged by the college during the summer vacation. The essence of this plan was to inject a certain substance extracted from the dragon bone cross and use it with the alchemical matrix carved on them by the vice-chancellor to refine their bloodline and It ensures that their will will not be affected and they can truly break through the critical blood limit. To be honest, today's Caesar and Chu Zihang should both be judged to be S-class if they were to undergo a blood test again, but when they recalled the moment when they fought against Lu Mingfei, they still thought that they were no match for that guy.

Speaking of which, Chu Zihang is probably one of the people in the world who has been in close contact with the Dragon Bone Cross for the longest time. During this period, he also heard the vice principal talk about the Philosopher's Stone, so it is not enough for him to know this bullet. strange.

"We have a small alchemy workshop outside Rome. Although it is small, its heritage can be traced back to before the Middle Ages. Of course, their achievements in alchemy are not as good as those of the Vice Chancellor and the Gottingen family, but they can also make such alchemical warheads. , its texture is high-hardness quartz, and it is wrapped with the Philosopher's Stone extracted from the dragon bone cross of the Lord of Bronze and Fire. It contains the property of burning. When necessary, it can even completely burn down a city. If it is hit If you hit the heart of a certain creature, then everything about that creature will disappear from the world." Caesar squinted his eyes slightly, not looking in the direction of the oden restaurant where Lu Mingfei and the others were, but looking at the clouds in the distant sky. That is the place where the sky and the earth meet. It is high and there seems to be a long wind blowing.

"Have you been carrying this thing with you?" Chu Zihang asked.

"Yes, when Norton's Dragon Bone Cross entered the ice cellar, the school board was almost ready to divide it up, but the Senate prevented this from happening. They believed that Lu Mingfei's power was enough to protect his wealth, the King of Bronze and Fire. He should have a share of the Dragon Bone Cross. The quota for your Nibelung evolution was obtained from Lu Mingfei, right?" Caesar said, "Although the Dragon Bone Cross was not completely divided, each family got a small amount. , the irrelevant part is not unusual, that’s how this bullet came.”

"I'm curious about what the Gattuso family wants you to use this bullet on." Chu Zihang's eyes suddenly became a little deeper. He looked at Caesar and was handed back the desert eagle with the bullet attached. One hand covered Murasame's knife handle.

"The eight Sheqi families are not monolithic. We can take advantage of this opportunity. The old guys in the family hope to use this opportunity to officially extend the power of the Gattuso family and the secret party to this country." Caesar stared at his hand. He took out the gun in his pocket and blew out another puff of smoke, "They also believed that there was something monster-like hidden in this family. That Yuan Zhisheng might be a person who is not inferior to Lu Mingfei, and Uesugi Eriki is even more dangerous. Likewise, I have two bullets, and I have the right to choose which two people who pose a threat to us should be killed."

The desert eagle, as bright as a mirror in the sun, reflects the ferocious light.

"The mission instructions we received are different. The principal wants us to monitor the head of the Uesugi family. If she returns to Genji Heavy Industries, we will give up this surveillance. If there is a chance, it is best to bring her back to the academy. That will be a good research subject; and Fu Mr. Rostre Gattuso seems to prefer that you kill the people in the eight Sheqi families who have the ability to hinder the secret party. So which side of the mission will you eventually carry out?" Chu Zihang looked into Caesar's eyes.

"This world is only divided into evil and righteous. I am the righteous Caesar Gattuso, and the academy and my family are asking us to do evil things." Caesar spit out the cigarette butt in his mouth. He looked at Chu Zihang with a fierce look for a moment, but Chu Zihang was not a person who would be intimidated by looks. He just stared into Caesar's eyes calmly, and then the fierce look quickly dimmed again, "You see Did that girl's eyes look as clean as a child? Chu Zihang, can you really make up your mind to execute a child when necessary? Or...send that child to the college's operating table?" They all Knowing what the operating table in the institute is like, it is simply hell on earth, a place more cruel than the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II.

This proud man's voice was so tired, as if he had lost all faith.

"I don't know." Chu Zihang said, "This is politics. The boundaries between justice and evil in politics are blurred, so people like me are only suitable to be sharp knives and just move forward indomitably."

He seemed to have answered Caesar's question.

As a knife?

Caesar suddenly became a little confused, but Chu Zihang suddenly said: "But my monitoring of them is not all based on the principal's orders..." He hesitated, "Actually, it is more because of Xia Mi's entrustment. "

"We are all people with a bottom line. My bottom line is right in front of me. If Lu Mingfei decides to do something, I will definitely support him. Even if one day he will stand on the opposite side of the world, I will stand with him with my knife. Together, I didn't keep my loyalty before, and I will definitely keep it in the future." Chu Zihang patted Caesar's shoulder,

"Don't think too much, Mr. Gattuso, look, the oden we ordered has arrived."

Sure enough, it was the delivery man riding a bicycle who entered the parking lot. There must be something wrong with the car, it was a little crooked.

"Is this Mr. Gattuso?" the delivery boy shouted from a distance.

"I filled in your name." Chu Zihang said.

Caesar's eyes twitched, he got out of the car and waved to the little brother: "Here, here!"

"Oops, it just rained and the road is slippery. I dare not ride too fast and keep you two waiting!" The little brother took out the disposable food box from the takeout box with an apologetic look.

——

"Lu Jun, please take good care of Miss!" Ying put her hands on her knees and bowed deeply, attracting side glances from the people around her.

Eliyi happily held the corner of Lu Mingfei's clothes and stood cutely behind the man. He scratched his head and felt a little dazed for a moment, as if he didn't know what year it was.

"Don't worry, Miss Sakura. We are just going to Disneyland. I will send Eri home tonight." Lu Mingfei promised softly.

Eriki lowered her head and wrote something in a small notebook.

"Then I'm relieved, but please be sure to keep the potion that the young master gave you. It can help the young lady stabilize the situation at a critical moment." Sakura said, and then the two of them chatted for a while, and she turned around and drove away in the Hummer. Got here.

Tokyo is not that far from Chiba Prefecture. It took so long to get here from Shinjuku just now mainly because of the traffic jam. But if Lu Mingfei and Eriki take public transportation back to Tokyo at night, it will be very fast. .

Standing on the street and watching the large black off-road vehicle leave, Lu Mingfei felt something soft and cool being stuffed into his palm.

Turning around, she met Eri Yi's suddenly eager gaze.

The sunlight was like a blooming flower, making those wine-red eyes look dazzling.

"I don't want to go home tonight." Eliyi put one hand on Lu Mingfei's palm and showed him the written note with the other hand. Her skin was warm and fair, and her eyes were full of attachment. Lu Mingfei Fei's body was a little stiff, and he touched Eri Yi's head.

"Well, I'll call your brother tonight." He said.

The moment he said this, Lu Mingfei's right ear suddenly turned red.

He was stunned for a moment.

Who is scolding me?

Adjust the status and officially start the strategy tomorrow
