Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before Dragon Slaying

Chapter 904 Died on that rainy night

"Ten thousand meters." Eryi repeated the number. Ten thousand was really a big number. Considering the height, she was a little scared.

Looking at the ground from this angle, no one can be seen anymore. Even the tallest skyscraper in Tokyo is no longer than a finger. Eriki stretched out a slender finger and gestured to the sky that was getting smaller and smaller in her sight. Shu seemed to find it very interesting. She had climbed that high tower. At that time, Eriki felt that the top of the tower seemed to be the top of the world, but she did not expect that for the entire world, the "highest" place she thought was so small.

Sakura is right as she said in the anime, this world is really big, so big that no matter how you crane your neck to see, you can't even see the edge.

The land quickly moved away behind her, and next came the endless ocean, which was blue. The weather was very good today, and the clouds were gathering in lumps in the sky. Eriyi's eyesight was very good, but she tried her best to look, but she still saw Until the end of the sky, it seems that there is no such place as a boundary or an end in this world. You will never be able to reach every corner in your lifetime.

Eriki is looking forward to this world, but she doesn't like this feeling. This world is unconsciously wonderful and beautiful, but it is too big and too empty. A person seems too small compared to this world, just like throwing a small drop of water into it. Entering the sea, she could not be found in the blink of an eye... She was very afraid that she would not be found.

Thinking of this, Eryi turned her head and saw Lu Mingfei next to her. Lu Mingfei was leaning on her shoulder with his eyes closed, wondering if he was asleep.

Immediately, Eliyi felt a lot more at ease. For a girl who had just come into contact with this world, there were many unknown things in this world that made her feel intimidated or even panicked. But as long as Lu Mingfei was by her side, everything seemed to be okay. Terrible.

Maybe this world is scary, but with Sakura beside me, it's not scary.

Eriki suddenly smiled, and the sunshine outside the window came in. This girl seemed to have never smiled so brightly.

As if he had a telepathic connection, the tip of Lu Mingfei's nose suddenly twitched twice, and then he slowly woke up. He opened his eyes and saw the face very close to him.

"Eliyi?" Lu Mingfei may be too tired, and his head is still a little dazed, "Why is this expression? Is there something on my face?"

Eryi shook her head, quickly approached Lu Mingfei, kissed him gently on the face, and then turned her head to look at the sea of ​​clouds outside the window.

Lu Mingfei scratched the back of his head, a little confused, but it was quite novel to be kissed by a beautiful girl as soon as he woke up. The air seemed to be filled with the fragrance of love... Lu Mingfei stretched out enjoying it. He took a nap and looked at the time.

They had been flying for six hours and had about four hours before they would land in Chicago.

Lu Mingfei turned around and looked at the situation in the cabin. Principal Ange was still sleeping with noise-canceling headphones on. He didn't know whether it was because he had consumed too much energy in Japan these days or was really a little airsick. The vice-principal and Fingel came together. Together, we drank and browsed the Night Watch forum. Some of the lunatics in the equipment department were writing programming, some were doing modeling, and some were too bored to pass the time playing games, sitting alone in the corner. Reading a book in Russian, Xia Mi is making a photo album, which contains photos she recorded in Japan. Caesar seems to be editing emails, his brows are slightly wrinkled, as if something is troubling him.

Just when Lu Mingfei felt that something was missing, a hand gently patted his back. Lu Mingfei turned around and saw a glass of iced Americano being handed to him. Chu Zihang was standing in front of him. behind.

"Add ice and 50% sugar. I remember you don't like it too bitter." Chu Zihang said.

"Thank you, senior brother." Lu Mingfei took the coffee from Chu Zihang's hand and drank it with an unceremonious "gu dong gu dong". The caffeine and ice sensation made his consciousness quickly become more active. There are too many things going on these days. , he and Eri had just finished traveling and were about to get married, so he didn't sleep for almost two nights.

The same goes for Eriki, but her constitution is different from Lu Mingfei's. She obviously has too much energy. Maybe it's because she was so excited when she left Japan for the first time. She barely slept for dozens of hours and was still in high spirits. .

"Ha... I'm alive!" Lu Mingfei finally felt refreshed after finishing a whole glass of iced Americano.

"Ming Fei." Chu Zihang suddenly asked, "Do you still remember what you said at the wedding yesterday?"

"At the wedding yesterday?" Lu Mingfei knocked his head, "I drank too much wine yesterday and I was dizzy. Did you and I say anything? Was it to make fun of you and Xia Mi? Or was it to complain about you, senior brother? Too boring? Senior brother, don’t take it seriously. You also know my temper. I feel uncomfortable if I don’t say a few nonsense words on any occasion..."

"You asked me not to rush home alone, and said we would go back together when we were free. You also said there was something dangerous, and..." After Chu Zihang stared at Lu Mingfei's eyes for a while, he suddenly He leaned close to Lu Mingfei's ear and whispered, "What do you mean by missing people...?"

Lu Mingfei first showed a puzzled expression, then looked like he was thinking hard, and finally his eyes widened as if he had thought of something.

Lu Mingfei made a silent gesture to Chu Zihang. He turned to Hui Liyi and said, "Hui Liyi, please stay by yourself for a while. Senior brother asked me to accompany him to the bathroom."

Eliyi nodded. With her hearing, she could still hear Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang even if their voices were lowered, but she didn't expose them or ask any more questions. She just nodded obediently.

Lu Mingfei stood up, looked around at everyone in the cabin, and then calmly pulled Chu Zihang to the bathroom of the passenger plane. He closed the bathroom tightly and locked the door.

This bathroom is not small, but with two big men crammed into it, it seems a bit cramped. In the limited space, Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang can even hear each other's breathing. If it were the other two people, like this The move was a bit ambiguous, but Chu Zihang knew that Lu Mingfei wanted to find a secret environment where it was convenient to talk.

"Brother, have you booked a flight home?" Lu Mingfei asked Chu Zihang while opening the exhaust pipe of the bathroom.

The sound of exhaust gas filled the entire space, almost covering up Lu Mingfei's voice. At this time, even if someone put their face against the door and eavesdropped, they could only hear the harsh sound of wind.

"Yes." Chu Zihang nodded and admitted. He looked at Lu Mingfei, "I didn't tell Caesar or my mother about this. How do you know?"

"Norma told me." Lu Mingfei also admitted directly, "If you think I'm spying on you, senior brother, you can understand it that way." Chu Zihang didn't look angry, he just said to Lu Mingfei Question: "Are you monitoring me just to prevent me from going back alone?"

"Yes, senior brother, that thing is too dangerous." Lu Mingfei nodded, "I can't let you face it alone."

"How much do you know about that thing?" Chu Zihang's tone showed no emotion.

"Brother, you didn't know why I could do so many things before, as if I could predict the future. What you should know now is because of the dream I had." Lu Mingfei explained, "That dream told me I revealed some things about the future, which will end until the end of our trip to Japan, but the story of the dream tells not only the future, but also the past.”

"Your past?" Chu Zihang said.

"No, it's your past, senior brother." Lu Mingfei came close to Chu Zihang's ear and read a few words in a very low voice, "Rainy night, viaduct, Maybach."

Chu Zihang's eyes jumped a few times, and there was no expression on his face, but Lu Mingfei could hear that Chu Zihang's heartbeat was getting faster, masked by the sound of the exhaust fan.

These words were like some kind of magic spell, awakening certain memories of Chu Zihang and mobilizing some of the deepest emotions in this robot-like man's heart.

"There are... missing people." After a moment of silence, Chu Zihang said slowly.

"Yes, I know that a person disappeared on the viaduct in that city seven years ago. He was a man who was very important to you. I know what happened to you, senior brother." Lu Mingfei looked into Chu Zihang's eyes and said, Then he suddenly sighed, "But that's all. To be honest, I don't know what that thing is. I just know your past, senior brother, in the form of words. And senior brother, you are the one who has experienced it. I really want to know it." To provide you with some useful information, but I’m sorry, I don’t know any more than you do.”

"No need to apologize." Chu Zihang shook his head. He lowered his eyelids and couldn't see his eyes when he said this. "I originally thought that no other person in this world would remember him. You know This has already helped me.”

No one understands Chu Zihang's mood when he said these words. He deliberately recalled this incident every night before falling asleep, just so that he would not forget it. Seven years was too long. It was so long that he had to remind himself repeatedly. Always remember that this is your real memory, not a fictional fantasy. That man also really existed, at least he is still living in your brain, and his traces have not been completely erased from this world.

So Lu Mingfei also remembered this incident, and there was one more trace of that man's existence. Although the dream story was too illusory, for Chu Zihang, this was enough.

"So I can't leave you alone, senior brother..." Lu Ming wanted to say something, but was rarely interrupted by Chu Zihang.

"So this is enough, you have done enough." Chu Zihang said softly to Lu Mingfei, "This is my business, there is no need to involve you."

"Senior brother, what you say is a bit too unkind, right?" Lu Mingfei raised an eyebrow, "What's the relationship between us? There's no need to set up a cold persona in front of me, right? What's your business is my business?" , it seems like you can’t speak if you don’t say such cool lines.”

"It's not about reading the lines, I'm very serious." Chu Zihang shook his head, "You just 'read', and I 'see' and feel. I understand the fear of facing that thing better than you do, and I won't let it. The same thing happened a second time.”

Everyone has something that must be redeemed in life. For Chu Zihang, the man who disappeared in the rainy night on the viaduct seven years ago is what he wants to redeem. This is his destined "catastrophe", and he should not also Lu Mingfei is not allowed to be involved. Lu Mingfei has nothing to do with this matter.

"Senior brother, according to what you said, Herzog is also an enemy that I must face, but I involved you and the boss, even though I knew it was dangerous, because I knew that I could solve it with my own strength. I can't do this, so I trust you." Lu Mingfei frowned slightly, "I need help, and so do you. Not everything in this world can be done alone."

"These are two different things. I trust you and Caesar enough, but this is not the reason why I have to ask you for help." Chu Zihang shook his head, "Everyone has his own choice and his own way. You need my help. I can help you, but I think there are some things that I can only face."

"Senior brother, do you have to be so brave?" Lu Mingfei's frown deepened, and his tone was even a bit reproachful, "You know better than me what that thing is. You have faced it before, and it is not human power at all. To put it bluntly, isn't that man a living example? If a mortal confronts a 'god'... he will die!"

"Even if you die, I will admit it." Chu Zihang seemed to be touched, and he said this without thinking.

Silence, the rest of the bathroom was deathly silent, with only the whirring of the exhaust fan and the sound of two gradually heavier breathing.

"Senior brother..." After a long silence, Lu Mingfei suddenly asked in a low voice, "Are you... just begging for death?"

Chu Zihang just remained silent and changed the topic: "After returning to the academy, do you want to take Eri Yi to the Lion Heart Club to see it?"

"No need, senior brother, your skills in changing the subject are really blunt." Lu Mingfei stared into Chu Zihang's eyes and asked reluctantly, "Senior brother, answer me, do you want to die on that elevated road? right?"

Lu Mingfei's answer this time was still silent, and Chu Zihang didn't even change the topic.

"What about your mother? Want another one with your stepfather? Then she won't be sad. Can she forget you like she forgot that man?" Lu Mingfei's voice was a little angry, "Brother, you know this is Impossible, the dead bring only sadness to the living. Lancelot and Susie will be sad, Caesar and I will be sad, and Xia Mi, senior brother, have you ever thought about how Xia Mi would feel? What's the point of being with her and leaving her alone? Do you think death is the solution? Are you so irresponsible?"

"Even if I die on that rainy night, it's okay, because this is the debt I owe... This is what I originally thought." Chu Zihang finally spoke, and he said slowly, "Now I don't think so, I will try my best to survive.”
