Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

The underground base of the Equipment Department, in Lu Mingfei's private laboratory.

The experimental table was half cleared and covered with a large piece of parchment. Lu Mingfei took a quill and sketched complex shapes on the parchment.

These patterns were generally called "magic circles", "alchemical circles" or "black magic circles" in the Middle Ages, but in the modern alchemical system, they are collectively called "alchemical matrices".

The alchemical matrix written on the parchment is the alchemical matrix of the Dark Killing Flame Demon Sword that was improved by Lu Mingfei and adapted to Senior Brother Chu's Junyan.

As for the parchment and quill, they were specially treated alchemy tools specially used to record the alchemy matrix, and were kindly provided by the vice-principal.

Just when Lu Mingfei was perfecting the alchemy matrix, the light in the corner of the experimental table suddenly lit up red, and the voice of Director Akadulla came from the mini speaker: "Mingfei? Mingfei, are you there?"

In order to prevent the researcher's inspiration from being interrupted or other unexpected situations, the door to the researcher's private laboratory is closed by default. It will be automatically locked as soon as it is closed. People outside can only open it by calling the highest level of authority, unless the door is broken violently.

In addition, the sound insulation effect of the private laboratory is excellent, so in order to avoid being unable to enter and contact the researchers inside through mobile phones, a paging mechanism was specially added during the design.

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, then walked to the door and opened the door. Director Akadula and Deputy Director Karl were both outside.

"What's wrong? Director, is there something wrong?" Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"It's a very important matter!" Director Akadulla put his hands on Lu Mingfei's shoulders with a stern look on his face, "Mingfei, have you noticed that you have overlooked something very important?"

Lu Mingfei recalled it carefully. He really couldn't think of what Director Akadulla was talking about, but he vaguely felt that there was indeed something. Instead, he was a little uneasy, worried that he had really overlooked a blind spot, and he was a little nervous: " Director, what is it?"

"Sure enough, you forgot!" The seriousness on Director Akadula's face instantly turned to excitement. He grabbed Lu Mingfei's shoulders and shook him vigorously, "Our limited edition Kamen Rider Transformation Belt! Why hasn't it arrived yet? "

"Yes! Why haven't you arrived yet!" Deputy Director Carl also grabbed Lu Mingfei's shoulders and shook him vigorously.

"Transformation belt?" Lu Mingfei was stunned and suddenly said, "It turns out to be one! No wonder I thought I forgot something!"

"You really forgot! You treacherous guy!" Director Akadulla looked excited.

"No, no, no, I haven't forgotten," Lu Mingfei waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm just buying it. I asked my friend in Japan to help me buy it, but it hasn't been sent yet."

He had asked Yuan Zhisheng to help him buy a complete set of belts, but they hadn't been sent yet.

"Really?" Deputy Director Carl looked suspicious.

"Really!" Lu Mingfei nodded firmly, but he himself was actually a little confused, "But strangely enough, the friend I asked for help is a big shot in the academy's Japanese branch. Logically speaking, he should be easy. I can get a complete set of belts, but I don’t know why they haven’t been sent yet.”

"People from the Japanese branch? That's no wonder," Director Akadulla said, "The relationship between the Japanese branch and the college has never been good, and they are all a group of lunatics. Please ask them, and they will help you. That's good. , there’s no way to expect them to care much.”

"Uh... I think my relationship with that friend is pretty good. Although it's not great, it's not bad either." Lu Mingfei scratched his head, "And even if it's not a personal relationship, he shouldn't be the type to agree. I have the personality to turn around and throw something aside after doing something.”

Lu Mingfei had a good impression of Yuan Zhisheng. He felt that he was a kind of person similar to Senior Brother Chu. He was rigorous, serious and reliable. If you entrusted such a person to do something, the other party would either refuse it outright, or he would definitely accept it. Do your best.

"I'll call him again and ask him. Maybe he's too busy. He said that he is the director of the Executive Bureau, so he is probably very busy at work." Lu Mingfei said.

"Mingfei, you have to be careful about the people in the Japanese branch. They are all a bunch of weird lunatics." Deputy Director Karl reminded.

"If we talk about being crazy, our equipment department should be the least qualified to accuse others, right?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but complain.

Kassel College is already full of weirdos and lunatics, but even in such a school where weirdos and lunatics gather, as long as the words "Equipment Department" are mentioned, people who hear the name will still feel a kind of electric shock in the spine. a feeling of.

Especially after the last free day, the name "Equipment Department" has become so scary in the school that it can scare adults to tears.

"It's different. The group of psychopaths in Japan mainly develop in the direction of abnormality, which is not the same type as ours." Director Akadulla said.

"Have you no intention of denying that we are also insane?" Lu Mingfei complained.

"Although I like Japan's two-dimensional culture very much, it is an irrefutable fact that Japan is rich in perverts." Deputy Director Carl pushed up his glasses and said.

"There's only one step between liking lolita and being a pervert." Lu Mingfei said with empty eyes.

"I can't pretend I didn't hear this!" Karl was furious.

"Okay, okay, don't make trouble, we still have business." Seeing Karl's frustration, Akadula immediately began to deflect and blocked Deputy Director Carl's mouth with "business", "Mingfei, I'm here and there's still business." The thing is to ask about the progress of the improvement of Extremis Virus, and the school board is already urging it."

"This..." Lu Mingfei's eyes wandered, feeling a little guilty, "I guess it will take a little more time."

He recently had to upgrade Murasame, modify the matrix of the Dark Killing Enma Sword, and help Charlotte's grandfather heal his injuries, which would naturally affect the progress of perfecting the Extremis virus.

"That's good." Director Akadulla nodded with satisfaction.

"Eh?" Lu Mingfei was stunned, "Why?"

"The longer the research process is, the more funding will be needed," Director Akadulla said calmly. "The more funding is invested, the harder it will be for the school board to give up on the project, and then the more money it will have to invest, and then it will be harder to give up... …”

Only then did Lu Mingfei realize it - it wasn't that he was slow, it was just that before he had done research mainly in Tony's world, he didn't need to consider money or cost issues at all, so he didn't forget to think about it. At this moment, after passing through Akadu Only after being reminded by Director La did he react.

However, after what the director and deputy director said, Lu Mingfei also realized something: "By the way, director, can I buy some equipment and materials at the internal price?"

"Of course it's no problem. You can make a form yourself and send it to my office tomorrow. I'll just sign it for you." Director Akadulla agreed.

The internal price, to put it bluntly, is the cost price of the materials and equipment in the equipment department's warehouse. According to the regulations of the college, researchers in the equipment department can use the cost price to buy things in the warehouse for their own research. This is considered an internal benefit given to researchers by the college.

What Lu Ming insisted on buying at the internal price were some materials and equipment needed to make a regenerated cradle.

Of course, the school rules also strictly stipulate that after buying it, you can only use it for yourself and cannot resell it. If you are found out, you will be severely fined.

However, the equipment department has never bothered to do this kind of reselling to make money. If they are really short of money, everyone will just be greedy for funds. Although the equipment department dislikes the principal's personal hygiene and taste in clothes and perfume, they are greedy for money. In this regard, the entire equipment department regards the principal as their idol.

…

At night, in Norton Hall, Lu Mingfei's bedroom.

Lu Mingfei sat in front of his laptop and sent a video call to Yuan Zhisheng - he had exchanged contact information with Yuan Zhisheng before leaving Japan.

A few seconds later, the video call was connected, and Yuan Zhisheng was sitting on the screen wearing a black suit. Judging from the background behind him, he should be in the office.

"Good evening, Mr. Lu." Yuan Zhisheng said.

"Good evening, Brother Yuan, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time," Lu Mingfei scratched his head, "I just want to ask about the Kamen Rider belt that I asked you to help me buy..."

"Ah, I'm sorry. The day after I promised you, I had to deal with a difficult matter involving the cadres of the fierce ghosts. It took several days with Sakura to get it done, so I didn't have time to help you buy a belt. I didn't complete the task until yesterday. "Yuan Zhisheng said, "I have asked Ying to take care of the belt matter. It can be sent out tomorrow. If you use special channels, it will be sent soon."

Yuan Zhisheng's words were half true and half false - he did encounter a rather difficult incident, but with his strength, it wouldn't take several days. After all, the target was only the cadres of the Fierce Ghosts, not the leader level. character of.

In fact, he had done it a few days ago, and personally helped Lu Mingfei buy the full set of belts he wanted and an extra Kuga belt, but unfortunately, these belts were seen by Eri Yi.

I don’t know why, but Eriki, who has never been very interested in Kamen Rider, suddenly wanted these belts. Yuan Zhisheng didn’t tell Eriki that he bought them for Lu Mingfei, and just bought the whole set of belts. He gave Eli clothes and planned to buy them later, which was why Lu Mingfei didn't receive the belt at that time.

As for the future... She originally planned to buy another pair, but something even more unexpected happened - Kassel College's attitude towards the Japanese branch, that is, towards the Sheqi Eight Family, suddenly changed.

To put it simply, the academy seemed to suddenly become more defensive against the family without any warning. Although the magnitude of this change was not drastic, it was still keenly noticed by the family who had evil intentions in their hearts.

After all, the family itself was brewing a plan to become independent from the college. Although it had become more low-key in recent years, it was also more sensitive to outside disturbances. During this period, the college's attitude suddenly changed, and the family had to treat it with caution.

Therefore, Yuan Zhisheng became busy again, so he put off buying the belt again.

Of course, he would not tell Lu Mingfei this, so he only said that he did not buy the belt because he had no time to take care of it at work.

"So that's it. I'm really sorry for bothering you, Brother Yuan," Lu Mingfei said, "How about this? When I go to Japan after the winter vacation, I'll treat you to a meal."

Yuan Zhisheng shook his head: "No need, it's just a small favor, I deserve it."

"It's okay. I happened to be planning to travel to Japan during the winter vacation. I wanted to have a meal on the way. It won't be a problem." Lu Mingfei said.

Just as Yuan Zhisheng was about to continue to refuse, something suddenly occurred to him - Lu Mingfei asked to come to Japan to meet him when the college's attitude toward the family changed. Did Lu Mingfei have any purpose?

If you reject him directly, it may arouse further vigilance from the secret party and the academy. On the contrary, it will attract more defense and surveillance, and further affect the family's plan. Why not just let him come, and then I will entertain him personally, and then let the family Keep a low profile so that nothing suspicious can be found until he leaves, and the family will not be suspected...

Just when Yuan Zhisheng was deep in thought, Lu Mingfei suddenly asked: "By the way, brother Yuan, how is the head of the Uesugi family doing lately?"

Lu Mingfei was not lying when he said he wanted to travel to Japan. Firstly, as an old two-dimensional man, he really wanted to go to Akihabara. Secondly... when he left, Eriyi had the ability to leave the body as a spirit. Being able to go out and play outside while sleeping, he was actually a little worried about whether something would go wrong, so he had to stop by and ask the question just now.

As for inviting Yuan Zhisheng to dinner... that's just a matter of course.

Yuan Zhisheng didn't know what Lu Mingfei was thinking. Hearing Lu Mingfei suddenly mention Hui Liyi, he suddenly became wary - could it be that the academy had begun to doubt Hui Liyi's identity and lineage? Or is it that there is no doubt about Eriki's bloodline, just because she is the one who seems to have the least real power among the three upper ones, so she is the one who wants to open a breakthrough for the Seraki Hachi family?

Minamoto is more inclined to the second guess. After all, Eri is well hidden within the family. Only the heads of the family know the real situation, and the medical staff only know a little about it. There is no reason for the news to leak to the academy.

But no matter what, there must be something wrong with Lu Mingfei, his purpose is not pure, and his comer is evil!

After confirming that Lu Mingfei's intentions were impure, Yuan Zhisheng strengthened his determination to let Lu Mingfei come to Japan. Only by welcoming him openly and letting him leave without any reason can the family not arouse the vigilance of the secret party. .

"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Lu Jun. Ever since Lu Jun came and played games with the head of the Uesugi family, she has become more lively, probably because it is rare to be in contact with people of her own age." Yuan Zhisheng said. .

This is the truth. Yuan Zhisheng discovered that since meeting Lu Mingfei, Eliyi has gradually become more lively and angry. Although she is still a little autistic, at least she is no longer the delicate doll she was before. , and even occasionally show a little smile.

But Yuan Zhisheng doesn't think this is Lu Mingfei's credit, and he doesn't intend to let Eryi and Lu Mingfei meet again just because of this. Even if the family is not considered, this is very dangerous for Eryi herself. Her If the bloodline is discovered, according to the secret party's style, the most gentle way to deal with it is to imprison him in an isolated island prison for life.

After briefly chatting with Lu Mingfei, Yuan Zhisheng hung up the video after waiting for Lu Mingfei to come to Japan during the winter vacation.

Lu Mingfei closed his computer when there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in." Lu Mingfei turned around and said.

Ling pushed the door open and walked in, wearing pajamas and holding a little bear. He looked at Lu Mingfei expressionlessly: "I'm going to bed."

With that cold expression, it was as if she was not Lu Mingfei's friend, but a girl from a good family who was threatened by the bully Lu Mingfei and was forced to sleep with her.

But judging from Lu Mingfei's trembling facial features, he also looked like the one being threatened.

"Zero...I think sleeping with two people in the same bed will not solve the problem of nightmares. It will also affect the quality of sleep and make nightmares more likely," Lu Mingfei stammered, "E-Otherwise, you go find the little goddess. Sleep? You have been roommates for a few months, so you must have a good understanding."

"We have bunk beds and have never slept in the same bed." Zero said as he walked towards Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei's eyes moved around, and suddenly he saw Ling holding something in his hand.

And the thing looked a little familiar, much like some kind of safety product that Senior Brother Chu's mother gave them when he and Su Xiaoqiang lived together.

"Zero...what are you holding?" Lu Mingfei asked tremblingly, with a hint of self-deceptive hope in his voice, "Is it chewing gum?"

"No," Zero shook his head and said calmly at a temperature of minus 180 degrees, "it's a condom, ultra-thin."

"Why did you bring this? You don't mean to..." Lu Mingfei's face was mixed with a mixture of fear and expectation.

"No, I don't hate doing this kind of thing with you, but I don't plan to do it either. I just consider that you might show off your bestiality. In terms of strength, I can hardly resist. In order to avoid getting pregnant afterwards, I used it as a safety belt. If you fall into this," Zero said calmly, "I hope you can control yourself, but if you can't, please be sure to use insurance."

"Also, please try to be gentle, it's my first time." Zero added.

Lu Mingfei was petrified.
