Standing at the door of Lu Mingfei's dormitory was a tall girl wearing a dark green school uniform and long silver-white hair.
In the cold wind of February, she held a rectangular black box in her arms, her body straight and standing like a sculpture, while she kept exhaling white breaths from her mouth.
It can be seen that the weather today is quite cold.
"Lucia?"
Lu Mingfei recognized the girl standing at the door of his dormitory. He remembered that the first time he met her was at the freshman entrance. The next time he met her was on the day of Constantine's resurrection, and he took her with him to direct operations.
It seemed that the last time they met was when she came to the hospital to visit him when he was injured. That counted as three times in total?
After seeing Lu Mingfei, the sculpture-like Lucia suddenly became alert and walked quickly towards Lu Mingfei.
When she reached Lu Mingfei, she stood still slightly, holding the black box and bending slightly towards Lu Mingfei: "Congratulations to Senior Brother Lu for returning from slaying the dragon."
Looking at Lucia who was bending slightly, Lu Mingfei could feel the seriousness in her tone.
It turned out that like the students outside, she was welcoming her back.
"Lucia, don't be so serious, we are not superiors and subordinates." Lu Mingfei waved his hand and smiled.
"Okay, I understand." Lucia nodded seriously.
Seeing her like this, Lu Mingfei didn't know what to say.
"Isn't it a holiday now? Why are you still in school?" Lu Mingfei asked casually.
"I heard that, senior brother, you have been training at school during the holidays, so I am learning from you, and like you, I have been honing my skills during the holidays."
Lucia answered with a very serious expression.
"At the same time, I didn't slack off during the months when you were secretly training." After a slight pause, Lucia continued to add.
Seeing her looking so serious, Lu Mingfei was speechless and didn't know what to say.
You're too serious, it's hard for you to say your nonsense!
After a long pause, Lu Mingfei said dryly: "Good job, keep up the good work!"
Hearing this, Lucia looked excited, feeling that she had been recognized by the person she admired.
There was a hint of joy in her tone, "Senior Brother Lu, I will continue to work hard to make you recognize me!"
"It goes without saying that my statement is actually not important. What is important is whether you feel recognized for yourself."
Lu Mingfei didn't want to be perfunctory this time. He felt that he needed to help this slightly crooked classmate and not let her always treat him as an idol.
"Is your own approval the most important thing?" Lucia thought thoughtfully.
"Yes, yes!" Lu Mingfei nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, I understand." Lucia paused, her tone a little uneasy, "Then how should I follow you?"
"What sense do you mean by following?" Lu Mingfei opened the dormitory door and waved her in.
Lucia looked at Lu Mingfei's bedroom door hesitantly.
"Aren't you cold standing outside?"
Seeing her breathing softly in her school uniform skirt, Lu Mingfei looked strange.
"Then excuse me."
Lucia bent slightly and walked into the dormitory holding the black box.
After entering the dormitory, Lu Mingfei found that there was a lot of dust in the room. This was because he had not been here for a long time.
After finding a towel and wiping the chair, Lu Mingfei moved it over for Lucia.
Lucia looked at the environment of the dormitory curiously, "Is this Senior Brother Lu's dormitory? It looks no different from a normal person's dormitory."
"I'm just an ordinary person. Don't think of me as too lofty. You can tell me the question I just asked."
Lu Mingfei also sat on a chair, looked at the dust on the table, and thought that he would have to clean it up later. Damn it, why wasn't Fingel the one who came earlier?
"What I mean by following is actually being able to follow your footsteps and become an elite dragon slayer. This is the hope of our family and my personal expectation." Lucia answered seriously.
"It means the improvement of one's own strength, right?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Yes, I think I can learn a lot from being by your side." Lucia replied.
At the same time, she added, "I'm sorry that I couldn't be the person you chose before, but now I have made a lot of progress, and I hope to join your dragon-slaying team."
She was talking about the candidates for the Bronze Project, and Lu Mingfei selected the best among them all.
"So, I can ask, Senior Brother Lu, have you joined the Lionheart Club or the Student Union?" Lucia asked.
She has not joined any club yet, she is just waiting for the news that Lu Mingfei will join the club. She hopes that she can give her senior brother some help.
Looking at the sky, Lu Mingfei then remembered that it had been a semester since he entered school and he had not joined any clubs yet.
I was here, and I met Constantine's resurrection just after school started. I was enrolled in the Bronze Plan just as I was injured, and three months of training followed.
After training, there are tasks. It is not until now that I am not so busy. It is ridiculous why I can live such a fulfilling life in just one semester of college.
"Which club have you been waiting for me to join?" Lu Mingfei said in a surprised tone.
"Yes, I remember I told you during the 3E exam that I wanted to join the same club as Senior Brother Lu to give you some help."
Lucia seemed to be saying something that was bound to happen.
"Okay." Lu Mingfei leaned back on his chair slightly, "Let's join the Lion Heart Club. I will join the Lion Heart Club in a few days."
"Okay." Lucia nodded.
"If nothing else, what are you holding on to?" Lu Mingfei pointed to the black box in Lucia's arms.
"Sorry, we were so happy chatting that I almost forgot about this."
Lucia stood up nervously and bent slightly towards Lu Mingfei.
"You don't have to be so respectful." Lu Mingfei reminded, referring to her tendency to bend slightly.
"I'm sorry, this is my personal habit. I can't always stay calm when facing people I admire."
Lucia lowered her head slightly, her silver hair falling on her chest.
Lu Mingfei felt numb. He really didn't know how to deal with a girl who always praised him and expressed her admiration for him.
Lucia, this woman, is so terrible!
"You should talk about the black box." Lu Mingfei raised his forehead.
"This is the thank you gift I prepared!"
Lucia bent down slightly, stretched out her hands, and handed the box to Lu Mingfei.
"Thank you?" Lu Mingfei took it doubtfully.
"Yes, you saved us when Constantine chased us before. I remember that your clothes were damaged while saving us."
"Later, after learning more about it, I found out that it was a custom-made suit given to you personally by the president of the Lion Heart Society."
"I'm sorry for damaging the precious clothes. This is my compensation and a thank you gift for saving me."
Lucia bowed slightly.
Lu Mingfei opened the box and found a customized suit inside.
"Where did you know my size?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"This." Lucia's face turned slightly red.
"Hey, why are you blushing!"
Lu Mingfei felt something was wrong.
"Actually, this is the information I bought from Brother Fingel. I'm sorry, I don't think this is good either!"
Lucia bent even lower.
"Your name is Lucia, but not Lucia. Why do you look like a Japanese?"
Lu Mingfei helped her up, looking helpless, "I don't blame you for anything."
Lucia felt much better now.
"Ask me, Brother Fingel, what has he sold about me?" Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth.
"He sells your height and weight, various physical standards, some photos of your daily life, and all kinds of very reasonable comments."
Lucia betrayed Fingel without hesitation.
Then she added in a low voice, "The sales are quite popular."
"I really underestimated that guy."
Lu Mingfei sneered. Although he hadn't used it for a long time, his strong arms were not in vain.
"If this happens again in the future, report it to me." Lu Mingfei said in a serious tone.
"Yes!" Lucia nodded seriously.
"Besides the size, did you buy many other things?" Lu Mingfei asked casually.
Lucia held the hem of her school uniform skirt with both hands and lowered her head in silence.
Her long silver hair temporarily covered her guilty face.
Is it really okay to let her be the internal agent?
Lu Mingfei rubbed his temples and felt his head hurt.
After chatting for a while, Lu Mingfei felt that the time was almost up.
"I will accept your gift. I will buy less non-copyrighted things in the future. In addition, you can come over when my senior brother and I are training in the future. Don't you want to become stronger? I will give you some other training tasks. "
In the end, Lu Mingfei smiled and sent Lucia out of the door. Although her personality was a bit strange, he didn't hate serious people.
"Okay, then I'll go back first. I wish you a happy life!" Lucia bent down slightly and then left the dormitory area.
On the way back, she didn't feel the cold of winter, she just felt that she was in a good mood.
The photo of Lu Mingfei standing in the sky kept reminiscing in his mind.
It’s great to be recognized by Senior Brother Lu! ——
Sheqi Eight Families, Genji Heavy Industries.
Yuan Zhisheng was looking through the information sent to them by the Japanese branch from the secret party.
Standing behind him were two old partners, Yabuki Sakura and Crow Yasha, who were wearing suits and skirts.
Seeing the young master's increasingly solemn expression, Crow and Yasha were a little curious about what information the secret party sent. No matter how hard and tiring the mission was, they rarely saw the young master so solemn.
With a long sigh, Yuan Zhisheng threw the information on the table.
"Young Master, is there something wrong?" Crow asked curiously, and then he added, "If you can't tell me, forget it."
"There's nothing I can't say." Yuan Zhisheng leaned on his chair and pointed at the documents on the table, "You can take a look at it too."
Crow and Yasha took it over curiously and looked at it carefully. As they looked at it, their expressions were as solemn as those of Yuan Zhisheng.
"It's not just the dragons who are going to intercept Kassel and snatch the Dragon Bone Cross, but also the Fierce Ghosts!" Crow exclaimed.
Cassell's information did not say that it was the Menggui people who caused the riot on the ship, but Yuan Zhisheng and the others could recognize them at a glance.
Those tattoos on the corpses, and those familiar evolution potions.
"To be precise, the fierce ghosts just happened to encounter the commissioners of Kassel and those dragons."
"Their real purpose is to conduct an experiment on evolutionary drugs, and even attempt to control high-level figures in society." Yuan Zhisheng tapped his fingers on the table.
"Not only that, the captain of the famous Eternal Paradise is actually a favorite of the Fierce Ghosts, and his status is only lower than Ryoma, the supreme leader of the Fierce Ghosts whom we knew before." Yuan Zhisheng said in a serious tone.
"I didn't expect Xiangche to be hidden so deeply." Crow murmured.
"In addition, Cassel's information also told us another piece of news." Yuan Zhisheng sneered.
"The codename of the highest-level Menggui cadre known so far is Ryoma. Because the codenames of the Menggui cadres are all replaced by the names of shogi pieces, we have always guessed that there are other levels above it. Dad even did this It took ten years to investigate.”
"Sure enough, as we guessed, there are two levels above the dragon and horse." Yuan Zhisheng pointed to the photo of the head wearing the mask of the public minister, "This is the king general."
"So, there should be a Dragon King under the King and above Ryoma." Yabuki Sakura stepped forward and looked at the photo of the King's head.
"That's right." Yuan Zhisheng nodded.
"Then the king is dead?" Yaksha asked.
"You'll find out if you keep reading." Yuan Zhisheng replied.
"According to Commissioner Cassel, they found a total of two king generals. They spoke in the same tone and had the same voice. It was difficult for their minds to be swallowed by the evolutionary medicine. His last words were that he hoped to meet again in the future." Yuan Zhisheng pointed out. With information.
"So the secret party speculates that this person named King General should have the technology to copy the human body and produce it, but those same thoughts cannot be explained. This also means that it is difficult to catch King General, because we don't know which one is the real one. .”
Yuan Zhisheng read the information again.
"If we meet him without knowing it, we might think that the king is a devil." Crow said silently.
"Yeah, anyone would think it was a resurrection from the dead, but after analysis by Kassel's specialists, it feels like it's something like that."
Yasha had the urge to catch the king now.
"Come on, didn't you read the description of the combat power? Injecting evolutionary medicine is similar to the strength of a pure-blood dragon. You used to deliver food." Crow mocked.
Yasha thought for a while, and realized that the pure-blooded dragons themselves seemed to be no match, so they could only give up.
"Then what should we do? Cassel wants us to investigate and give them the results." Yabuki Sakura interjected.
"You go and draw up a notice and say that our Japanese branch has always dealt with the issue of mixed breeds independently. Cassell doesn't need to pay too much attention to it. We will handle this matter internally."
Yuan Zhisheng rubbed his temples and ordered.
"Yes!" replied Crow and Yaksha.
"What about the fierce ghosts?" Yaksha asked.
"There is no need to tell them. The problem of the fierce ghosts is an internal matter of our Sheqi Eight Family. We can solve it ourselves." Yuan Zhisheng answered as he tapped the table gently.
"Understood, young master." Crow and Yaksha took the order and left.
"The next step is to clean up the remnants of the fierce ghosts."
They went to carry out the tasks assigned by the young master.
This is the Japanese branch with a high degree of autonomy. They and the Secret Party have always been the same force but not of the same mind.
Moreover, Yuan Zhisheng felt that other members of the Eight Sheqi Clan would not agree to let the secret party take care of the problem of the fierce ghosts. After all, this was the dark side of the Eight Sheqi Clan's past generations.
Seeing that Minamoto was always frowning, Yabuki Sakura leaned behind him, stretched out her hands and gently kneaded his head, with gentle and powerful movements, relieving his pressure.
Gen Zhisheng silently enjoyed Yabuki Sakura's massage, and at the same time felt that the decision to take in Yabuki Sakura was the best decision he had made since taking power.
