Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before Dragon Slaying

Chapter 1018 Sense of Belonging (Two-in-one subscription required!!!)

A white BMW sedan shuttled through the city streets. Today was a day of full resumption of work, and there were quite a lot of cars on the road. Each traffic light was stuck for several minutes, but the uncle was obviously an experienced driver. The cars in front, behind, and on both sides were honking their horns impatiently, but he was still leaning on the newly bought seat pillow, calm and composed.

An old song from ten years ago was playing in the car stereo, "I Really Love You", and my uncle was humming along. The original singer Wang Jie's voice was hoarse and affectionate, and my uncle's voice... was also quite refreshing.

"There are so many cars." Eri leaned against the glass and looked at the hustle and bustle of the road. She remembered that when she first came to this city, it was not so prosperous. The number of pedestrians and cars on the streets was almost comparable to that of Tokyo.

"Of course, everyone in the city is out today. Chinese people are like this. They can't sit still at all." The uncle hooked one hand on the steering wheel and turned to Lu Mingfei and Eri. "You were away a few days ago. You don't know how scary the windy and rainy weather was. I heard that several trees were blown down. A psychiatric hospital in the suburbs was attacked by terrorists. The TV was reporting it. The street office and the neighborhood committee distributed documents to every household, saying that people are not allowed to go out unless it is necessary. For three consecutive mornings, people delivered rice and eggs to people's homes, making people panic, as if the world is coming to an end... Oh oh oh oh, I'm secretly falling in love with you!"

Before my uncle finished speaking, the music in the car reached its climax. As a microphone master, my uncle certainly couldn't miss this part and howled along with it.

Lu Mingfei and Eiry looked at each other, wondering how their uncle would feel if he knew that the so-called terrorists who attacked the suburban hospital were sitting in their car.

"I saw the news. The weather was really bad a while ago." Lu Mingfei echoed his uncle's words, "But it's not too bad. Some trees and telephone poles were damaged, a few windows were broken, and many cars were flooded, but it doesn't seem to have caused too much damage."

"I always lack the courage to say that I really love you!" After singing, the uncle nodded and seamlessly switched to the topic with Lu Mingfei, "Well, everyone should have a smooth life in the second half of this year."

"Is there any explanation?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Well, it's a custom in coastal cities like ours. People in the countryside used to say that auspicious snow means a good harvest. A heavy snowfall at the end of the year means a good harvest next year." The uncle explained, "It's the rainy season here. If there's a really, really heavy rain, the bad luck of the second half of the year will be washed away, and the next period of time will be good weather and good harvests."

“There is such a saying.” Lu Mingfei sighed.

"They are all old calendars. Only older people believe in them now. You young people should just treat them as superstitions." The uncle laughed and was quite open-minded.

"No, what I said makes sense. Otherwise, why did the ancients always say that the sky clears up after the rain?" Lu Mingfei also looked out the window at the busy streets and said softly, "No one likes bad weather, just like no one likes separation. But you have to wait for something to happen before you know how rare peace and happiness are."

"Oh, Mingfei is young, but he has deep feelings." The uncle laughed generously, "Very good, very good, the children of our Lao Lu family are open-minded, you follow me in this regard, next time when you accompany your uncle for a drink, we can have a good chat about life."

Uncle and Lu Mingfei chatted casually along the way, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed. Even though there were a lot of cars on the road and they would be stuck in traffic for several minutes from time to time, uncle said that the traffic would not be so congested in a few years because the government had planned several subway lines and construction would begin in the second half of the year. The old city was also ready to develop. When Lu Mingfei and Eri return to this city in a few years, they are afraid that the city will have changed so much that they will not be able to recognize it. It would be good to come back and develop at that time. After all, no matter how big the outside world is, it is not as safe as staying at home.

Lu Mingfei smiled and said that after he completed the internship at school and got his diploma, he would see how the school arranged things for him. He would think it would be great if he could apply for a job back home. In fact, he didn't have such big ambitions. He would be content with having a house of his own, a stable life, and not having to worry about food and drink.

Along the way, Eri was looking at the city outside the window, quietly listening to the uncle and nephew chatting about all sorts of things. Some of them were talking about family matters, and some were discussing life. She had never experienced such a feeling in Tokyo. It was as if she also belonged to this city and had gradually integrated into other people's lives. The joys and sorrows were all real, not just from what she saw on TV anime.

Perhaps the name of this thing is "sense of belonging".

The white BMW slowly stopped at the gate of Shilan Middle School.

Shilan Middle School is quite lively today, with many people, because today is the first day of resumption of classes. The energetic freshmen wearing sky blue school uniforms walked into the Pantheon-like gate. There were several more security guards, and their radar-like eyes scanned the faces of the people entering the school to prevent any scum of society from trying to sneak into the sacred school.

There is also a whole row of luxury cars parked in front of the gate of Shilan Middle School, from Mercedes-Benz to Porsche, from Bentley to Aston Martin...My uncle's BMW 3 Series is considered the top of the pyramid in his old community, and it is not good enough to be placed here.

"As expected of an aristocratic school, the enrollment quality of Shilan Middle School is really high this year!" After parking the car, the uncle got out and looked at the various noble car logos. His drool almost wet his brand-name tie.

“There should be quite a few who paid to get in.” Lu Mingfei said, “After all, it doesn’t mean that just because your family is rich, you will definitely get good grades.”

"But it's also good for the school and other students that someone is willing to spend money." The uncle expressed his opinion from the perspective of capital. "With sufficient funds, the school can equip students with better teaching equipment and teaching teams. High school and junior high school are also different. Some students have weak foundations, but as long as they are willing to learn, coupled with good teaching quality, their future will definitely not be bad."

“That’s true.” Lu Mingfei nodded. Before he could take a step, two figures came out from nowhere and held him on the left and right.

"Found it, found it, I found Brother Lu!" said the handsome guy on the left.

"150,000, 150,000!" the handsome man on the right said excitedly, "We found it together. Let's split the reward given by the little goddess!"

Lu Mingfei looked left and right, and saw the same face on both sides.

"What are you two doing?" Lu Mingfei asked the brothers Xu Yanyan and Xu Miaomiao.

"Brother Lu, where have you been? You've been out of contact for several days. My classmates called you but couldn't reach you!" said Xu Yanyan.

"The little goddess posted a message, offering a reward of 150,000 yuan to find you. He said he suspected you were kidnapped by terrorists!" Xu Miaomiao explained, "Some people also said that you were swept away by a typhoon."

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm fine." Lu Mingfei glanced at his uncle. Fortunately, his uncle didn't suspect anything and thought it was just a joke among classmates. "Didn't the reward for that post reach 100,000? I remember it."

"Hey, Brother Lu, do you know about this?" Xu Miaomiao was stunned. "It was 100,000 yuan at the beginning, but no one could find you, so the little angel started to increase the amount, adding 10,000 a day. Oh, by the way, if you had shown up a few hours later, maybe it would have risen to 160,000 today!" Lu Mingfei was shocked again. He really didn't expect that the little angel could do this... He was a little scared.

Young Master Shao must have known about this, but he had been hiding it well. It seemed that the guy was indeed quite loyal... What Lu Mingfei had not expected was that Shao Yifeng had long imagined them to be some kind of international super-powered spies. If their whereabouts were revealed, the entire Black Prince Group would be doomed to fail. He would not do such a stupid thing.

“Go away, you are trying to make money from your classmates.” Lu Mingfei hit both Xu Yanyan and Xu Miaomiao, “I came here today to clarify this matter. I am not missing. I just went out of town for some business a few days ago. Wasn’t the signal bad during those days?”

Obviously Lu Mingfei lied. He didn't come here today to clarify the matter. He had made an appointment with everyone from Kassel College to meet here. He didn't even know why he met Xu Yanyan and Xu Miaomiao here today.

Last time I asked my senior to meet here, I think I met these two guys first, right? It started exactly the same way. It seems that I really can't meet here in the future. I don't know why these old bastards who graduated like to run to high school one by one.

"Lu Mingfei!" A familiar girl jumped out of a high-end Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan, and two other girls followed behind her, walking quickly towards Lu Mingfei.

Su Xiaoqiang, Liu Miaomiao, Chen Wenwen... Lu Mingfei couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw this lineup.

  Why are all these high school classmates here together again? And in front of Shilan Middle School? Is Shilan Middle School's resumption of classes today also related to them?

“Long time no see…” Lu Mingfei didn’t know how to start. It would not be good if he acted too intimate or too cold, as Eiry was still watching him.

"Are you okay? Where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you these days, but no one can contact you!" Su Xiaoqiang walked around Lu Mingfei, as if to see if Lu Mingfei was intact and whether he had any missing limbs.

Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen behind him also kept staring at Lu Mingfei, and their eyes made him a little nervous.

"I really wasn't here during this period..." Lu Mingfei was about to explain when Su Xiaoqiang suddenly pulled him aside.

"You can fool a fool with this, but don't try to fool me. You didn't leave the city at all!" Su Xiaoqiang glared and said to Lu Mingfei in a low voice, "Don't you remember the car I borrowed from you? Later, the police called me and said that the car was found in a nursing home in the suburbs. They also asked me if I was involved in a terrorist attack!"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself that something was wrong and he almost forgot about borrowing the car.

“I’m sorry, I lent you the car and broke it, and you had to ask someone to tow it back.” Lu Mingfei was really apologetic. “I’ll compensate you for the car.”

"No need. You know I'm not here to talk to you about the car compensation." Su Xiaoqiang stared at Lu Mingfei. "What happened at the Sacred Heart Hospital? I heard a building was blown up! How did you get involved in such a thing?"

"It's not that exaggerated. It's a floor, not a building." Lu Mingfei thought that the rumor was getting more and more outrageous. "We went to Sacred Heart Hospital that day to look for Senior Brother's mother. Her mother was probably hospitalized there. You know that hospital is full of rich people. It was probably targeted by some human traffickers. Anyway, nothing happened to anyone in the end. We hid at Master Shao's place for a while and came out after the news died down."

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei had thought of a second set of wording in advance. At this moment, he finally understood why people often say that telling a lie requires covering it up with more lies. In the end, he simply pushed it all onto Master Shao... Master Shao had already taken enough blame, so one more wouldn't make a difference.

"Mr. Shao? Are you talking about Shao Yifeng?" Su Xiaoqiang didn't expect to hear this familiar name from Lu Mingfei. "How do you know Shao Yifeng?"

"It's not that I know her, it's my senior sister. She is quite familiar with Mr. Shao." As soon as Lu Mingfei said this, Su Xiaoqiang's eyes showed contempt.

When Lu Mingfei saw Su Xiaoqiang's expression, he knew that she must have thought something wrong. He thought that Mr. Shao's reputation was really not very good. Once a woman was associated with him, people's first reaction would be that he had a relationship with wine and women.

"Don't think too much. My senior sister and Mr. Shao are just elementary school classmates. Mr. Shao has been pursuing her, but she has a fiancé." Lu Mingfei explained.

"Oh, the 'perfect angel' that Shao Yifeng keeps talking about is your senior sister." Su Xiaoqiang suddenly realized, "Is your senior sister so good? I think Shao Yifeng has been bewitched into a fool."

"It's not that it's so good, it's just the feeling of white moonlight, you know." Lu Mingfei felt that he couldn't stay on this topic with Su Xiaoqiang any longer. He looked around and asked, "Have you seen my senior brother? Oh, by the way, why are you all here at school today?"

"Brother, I didn't see it. I just arrived. As for why we are all here..." Su Xiaoqiang looked at Lu Mingfei dimly, "It's all because of you."

"Ah?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused, "What do you mean..."

Before Lu Mingfei finished speaking, another familiar voice floated over.

"Lu Mingfei, do you know that you are late? And you are still here chatting up girls?" Nuo Nuo walked over quickly, obviously a little angry.

"This is my classmate, senior sister..." Lu Mingfei was about to explain when one of his arms was grabbed by Nuo Nuo.

Nuonuo grabbed Eri with her other hand and pulled them to Shilan Middle School in a very tough manner. She also turned around and said hello to Su Xiaoqiang and the others: "Hello, classmates. Goodbye, classmates."

Su Xiaoqiang stood there in a daze, staring at Nuo Nuo's back. This was probably the first time she had seen a girl who could surpass herself in terms of imposingness and heroism. She still remembered how Lu Mingfei addressed this girl just now... Senior Sister.

"Who is that?" Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen couldn't help but come forward and ask.

"Maybe it's an 'angel'." Su Xiaoqiang rolled his eyes.
