Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

Tamamo-mae Club, in a room on the third floor.

Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang, Yuan Zhisheng and Ying sat across from each other.

"Solomon's Temple... actually has such a thing," Yuan Zhisheng nodded slightly, "It's not surprising that such an unscrupulous organization would cooperate with the Fierce Ghosts."

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang briefly told Yuan Zhisheng what they discovered about what Solomon's Temple would do when they were in Viana Castello some time ago. They omitted the more sensitive information and only summarized it briefly. It talked about how Solomon's Temple would capture innocent girls and use them as tools to give birth to excellent hybrids, as well as conduct black magic and human experiments.

As for the important information that Solomon's Temple would raise dragons to fight, Lu Mingfei hid it. Although Chu Zihang was not so thoughtful, fortunately he didn't like to talk about it, so nothing was noticed.

"The family will do its best to help you two complete their mission," Yuan Zhisheng said, "but I am afraid that Mr. Lu Mingfei will waste some time tomorrow. The heads of the eight Sheqi families want to meet with you in person as a token of appreciation. welcome."

"Isn't this a bit too grand?" Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed.

"This is the importance that a family should pay to its distinguished guests." Yuan Zhisheng said.

Although Yuan Zhisheng said so, in fact it was indeed a bit too grand. After all, Lu Mingfei was just an S-class freshman, and he was visiting in a private capacity. No matter what, he would not want anyone from the Sheqi Eighth Family. All the senior officials came to greet him.

But the person behind Lu Mingfei is Ange, the legend who once single-handedly conquered the entire Sheqi family. If Ange came in person, the entire Sheqi family would come out to "welcome" him. The specifications are not high.

Therefore, Lu Mingfei who is on this trip is indeed worthy of being received by the eight family heads in person.

…

Late at night, near Genji Heavy Industries, in a luxury hotel, in the presidential suite.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang were sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Originally, Yuan Zhisheng had booked them the most luxurious hotel in Tokyo, but because they had to work together to investigate matters related to the Menggui, at the temporary request of Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, the residence was changed to Genji Heavy Industries. The luxury hotel next to me was not as luxurious as the originally booked hotel, but it was more convenient.

As for the ordinary people like Su Jiannan, they were naturally sent to the hotel they originally booked.

"Brother, why don't we outsource the task directly to the Sheqi Ba family?" Lu Mingfei chewed potato chips, "Anyway, they are the local snakes here. Facing an organization called Menggui Zhong, whether it is experience or They are both stronger than the two of us."

Although he and Chu Zihang are considered masters among hybrids, after all, there are only two of them, and they are definitely incomparable to local gangsters with big families and big businesses.

Chu Zihang shook his head: "They may not try their best."

"Ah?" Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows, "Senior brother, why do you say that?"

"I have encountered a similar situation before. The task requires me to kill a hybrid who deals in black magic. He does not have a tendency to become Deadpool in his blood. He is a fallen alchemist who uses the bodies of other hybrids to refine The alchemy props were then sold to other shady forces. After I arrived, a local mixed-race family approached me and offered help, but in fact they were the financial backers behind the depraved alchemist."

"In the end, I killed the fallen alchemist and sent the patriarch of that family to the local execution department for processing," Chu Zihang said. "Although the task was completed, that family caused me a lot of trouble in the process of completing the task. trouble."

"Brother, do you suspect that the relationship between the Eight Sheqi Family and the Menggui Clan is not as incompatible as Senior Brother Yuan said, and that they are actually conducting some kind of transaction?" Lu Mingfei rubbed his chin, "Although it is not impossible, But after all, they are a branch of the academy, so they wouldn’t do such a thing, right?”

"I did some research on the way to Japan and found that the Japanese branch has a very high degree of independence. The top management of the entire Japanese branch are all from the Sheqi Eighth Clan, and most of the middle management are made up of people from the Sheqiba Clan. There is a high proportion of mixed race people with foreign surnames. "Young Master," Chu Zihang said, "The relationship between the Japanese branch and the academy is not one of superior and subordinate, but more similar to a subordinate country surrendering to the suzerain country."

"That's why, senior brother, you plan to investigate in person, because you are worried that if the Eight Sheqi Family colludes with the Meng Ghosts, and the task is handed over to the Eight Sheqi Family, the Eight Sheqi Family will take the opportunity to protect the Meng Ghosts." Lu Mingfei suddenly realized.

Chu Zihang nodded, paused, and said: "But this is just a cautious decision on my part. In fact, except for the fact that the eight Sheqi families rule the underworld in Japan and are slightly sensitive in nature, I didn't find anything else about them. The problem is, maybe I’m just worrying too much.”

"If there is really a problem, it won't be seen so easily," Lu Mingfei said casually, but then he realized something was wrong and his tone suddenly rose, "Wait a minute! What did Senior Brother Ni say? The Eight Sheqi Family are Japanese. From the underworld?!”

"It's not accurate to say 'mixed'. The Sheqi Ba family is actually the supreme leader of the entire Japanese underworld. All Japanese underworld must obey their rules and pay regular tributes," Chu Zihang said, "In return, the Sheqi Ba family The family association maintains the stability of the Japanese underworld. As long as the rules of the Sheqi Eight Families are not violated, even if it is illegal, the Sheqi Eight Families will keep the underworld people out of the hands of the police."

"Aren't they still members of the underworld?!" Lu Mingfei's eyes widened, "And senior brother, you just said that they are just a little bit sensitive in nature? Are they just 'slightly' involved in the underworld?"

"Yes," Chu Zihang nodded, "Many mixed-race families in the college have gang backgrounds, but they were later cleared."

"If this is just a little bit, what is it that is particularly sensitive?" Lu Mingfei was very curious.

Chu Zihang thought for a while and said seriously: "For example, the equipment department."

Lu Mingfei:...

Damn, I can’t refute it!

Compared to hacking the U.S. military's most advanced drones to blow up fireworks, messing with the Japanese underworld seems to be no big deal.

Lu Mingfei was silent, but Chu Zihang was a little curious: "You don't know that the Japanese branch has a gang background? Didn't you investigate it before coming here?"

"Who would investigate this kind of thing?" Lu Mingfei covered his face. "All I know about the Japanese branch is from the principal. The principal didn't mention this when he told me. He just said that the Japanese branch is in Japan. He is very powerful and covers many industries. For example, one of his students controls the largest customs and entertainment industry in Japan..."

In fact, Yuan Zhisheng should have introduced these things to Lu Mingfei, but in his opinion, Lu Mingfei came here on behalf of Angers, and he should already know the situation of the eight Sheqi families very well, so there was no need to waste words. .

…

The next day, Lu Mingfei got up early. He originally wanted to take Chu Zihang to meet the eight family heads, but Chu Zihang said that he was going to investigate the mission, so Lu Mingfei had to go alone.

He went downstairs to have breakfast and strolled around for a while. At about nine o'clock, Minamoto and Sakura came to the door and took him to Genji Heavy Industries.

Although they were very close, they certainly couldn't let the distinguished guests walk there, so naturally it was Sakura who drove Lu Mingfei and Yuan Zhisheng.

Lu Mingfei noticed that Ying specially wore a pair of flat women's leather shoes today.

After getting out of the car, Ying and Yuan Zhisheng took Lu Mingfei into the towering Genji Heavy Industries building and entered the elevator. Ying pressed the button for the thirtieth floor.

In the elevator, Lu Mingfei wanted to say something to liven up the atmosphere, so he looked at Yuan Zhisheng and asked, "Senior Brother Yuan, do the Eight Sheqi Family have any property in Akihabara?"

"Akihabara?" Yuan Zhisheng was stunned.

He knew something about Akihabara. It was originally an electronics street, but more and more games and electronic products were released here, and it gradually turned into a holy place for otakus, the "Otaku Street" of Akihabara. This is where the name comes from.

He is not very interested in two-dimensional culture, but he has a sister who is very into two-dimensional culture, so it is difficult not to know. His sister has mentioned to him countless times that she wants to visit Akihabara, but she cannot leave Genji Heavy Industries. range and cannot even leave their own hospital room.

But why did Lu Mingfei suddenly mention Akihabara? Could it be that the S-class in the academy is also an otaku? Impossible, right?

"I want to buy some beautiful girl figures and bring gifts to some friends," Lu Mingfei took out a small Celestial Beast figure from his jacket pocket, "I bought this near the hotel in the morning. After searching for a long time, I only found this one that I like, but the workmanship is not very good, and there is no packaging box, so I suspect it is a pirated copy.”

"So I think it is better to go to a two-dimensional gathering place like Akihabara to find good figures more easily... By the way, Brother Gen, do you know this character? She is a character in Digimon..."

Yuan Zhisheng:......

The S-class is really hard to figure out.

Fortunately, the elevator was very fast. Before Yuan Zhisheng could answer, he had already reached the 30th floor.

After stepping out of the elevator, Sakura opened a secret door in the corner of the building, and the sun shone out from behind the door.

There is actually a spacious terrace on this floor. It is hidden in a corner of the building and is not easily visible from the ground or the sky. Only by opening the sliding door can one step into this cave.

"Inside is Xingshen Temple, where the heads of the eight surnamed families are waiting for you." Ying guided Lu Mingfei into the door.

Although it is called Xingshenji Temple, it is not a Buddhist temple, but a Japanese Shinto temple, also called a "shrine".

Generally, shrines are built on mountains. There is a long road from the torii to the main hall, called the "sando". However, there is really not enough space in one building, so the first sight of the shrine is the torii. At the back is the building.

Lu Mingfei followed Ying in. Before entering the main hall, Ying held a copper basin filled with water. Lu Mingfei washed his hands and rinsed his mouth. This was the "hand water ceremony" before visiting the shrine.

After Lu Mingfei and Yuan Zhisheng performed the hand-washing ceremony, Sakura bowed and left, and Lu Mingfei followed Yuan Zhisheng into the main hall.

The main hall is extremely spacious, with a huge curtain hanging inside. There are eight small tables under the big curtain. Different long knives are enshrined on the tables. Eight different family crests are depicted in gold on the handles. Seven of the long tables have There was a person sitting on his knees, and only one room was empty.

Seeing Lu Mingfei come in, six of them stood up and bowed. Only a red-haired girl with a black gauze covering her face remained unmoved. Her red and white miko dress looked out of place in a shrine.

"Lu Jun, let me introduce to you..." Gen Zhisheng walked to the seven people and introduced, "This is the head of the Ryoma family, Mr. Ryoma Genichiro. Mr. Ryoma Genichiro is the current head of the Japanese branch."

The long knife on the table behind the head of the Ryoma family has the head of a divine horse on the handle. It is undoubtedly the hand of a master. The horse seems to jump into reality at any time. However, contrary to the head of the horse, the head of the Ryoma family seems to be experiencing A man in crisis in his 20s, wearing a meticulous suit. He is a mixed race, somewhat bald, and has no energy. If he plays the role of a social beast in a TV series, he might win several acting awards.

"The head of the Inuyama family, Mr. Inuyamaga. Mr. Inuyamaga is the first branch director. The Tamamozen Club that entertained you yesterday is the property of the Inuyama family," Minamoto said.

The gray-haired head of the Inuyama family looked very kind, with a warm and hearty smile: "Originally, I should have gone to greet him in person last night, but a place full of beautiful girls suddenly squeezed in. An old man like me, with a wrinkled face, probably would It has disturbed everyone's interest, so I have postponed the meeting to today, please forgive me."

"The head of the Sakurai family, Ms. Sakurai Nanami, she also serves as the inspector of the Japanese branch." Minamoto introduced the only woman who stood up and bowed. The other woman was still sitting firmly in the same place, with her hands curled up in the miko's hands. The skirt has wide sleeves.

The head of the Sakurai family is actually a stunning young woman. Although she is deliberately conservative in her clothes, the suit skirt cannot cover her fiery curves. The pair of dark red thick-rimmed glasses are on her face, and her bare makeup looks like she is in full bloom. More colors like makeup.

"The head of the Fuma family, Mr. Fuma Kotaro, and the 'Wakatou' of the Sheqi Eighth Clan. When everyone's parents are away, Mr. Fengma decides on family affairs," Minamoto said. Although he said that, in fact, in recent years, when everyone was away, he was the actual leader, but he didn't like this feeling.

The head of the Fuma family was the only one present who looked like a gangster. This old man in a black kimono looked like he was forged from fine iron. His eyes were as cold as a knife. Standing in front of him, it felt like a knife was pointed between his eyebrows. But the name seems to be that of a famous figure in Japan more than 400 years ago. I don’t know what I thought when I chose the name. Aren’t you afraid of embarrassment?

"Next is me," Yuan Zhisheng pointed at himself, "I am the head of the Yuan family."

Lu Mingfei was a little surprised: "I didn't expect you, Senior Brother Yuan, to become the head of the family at such a young age. I thought the head of the family would be the elder of your family."

The expressions of all the family heads present changed slightly, except for the red-haired female family head whose face was covered by a black veil. Even if her expression changed, no one could tell.

Yuan Zhisheng was silent for a moment and explained: "I am the only member of the Yuan family currently."

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment to realize what Yuan Zisheng meant, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Senior Brother Yuan..."

"It's okay," Minamoto shook his head and introduced the head of the family who had been kneeling on the spot, wearing a witch costume. "This is the head of the Uesugi family, Eri Uesugi. She is not very good at socializing, and she can't speak. She is also rude. Please forgive me, Mr. Lu.”

The head of the Uesugi family looked up at Lu Mingfei and paid attention, which was considered a greeting.

"Eri!" Masamune Tachibana, who was dressed in white linen, scolded in a low voice: "Be polite to your distinguished guests!"

The head of the Uesugi family blinked, took out a small notebook from his sleeve, lowered his head and scribbled for a while, then raised it up: "Hello."

Lu Mingfei blinked, thinking that this girl didn't look very smart.

He is also disabled and cannot speak, which is a bit pitiful.

Lu Mingfei was a little troubled. This was the first time in his life that he communicated with a disabled person. He didn't know how to greet the female head of the family better. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to scratch his head. As a result, he suddenly noticed that the eyes of the head of the Uesugi family suddenly changed. He was staring at the left side of his waist.

Lu Mingfei lowered his head and looked over, only to realize that he had stretched his clothes because he stretched out his hand to scratch his head, causing the head of the Celestial Beast figurine that had been put in his coat pocket to reveal its head.

The head of the Uesugi family focused on Amamon's head protruding from his pocket.
