Lu Mingfei: The Return of King Eldon

Chapter 99

Ling stood there, facing Lu Mingfei face to face, without saying a word.

"How should I call you? Your name is too long, why not call you Zero." Lu Mingfei said to himself. At the end of the dark alley, half of his body was hidden in the shadows. "You're an accomplice of Mai Shutoku, aren't you?"

Zero still didn't say a word, just nodded.Facing Lu Mingfei who appeared like a ghost, she remained as calm as an iceberg.

"Then maybe I should arrest you." Lu Mingfei shrugged, "However, before that, I have some questions for you."

Zero still just nodded without saying a word.She is really a three-no girl, Lu Mingfei couldn't help admiring her calmness and composure.

Or, is she just plain paralyzed?

"Before coming to Kassel College." Lu Mingfei considered his words, "Did we meet at a dance?"

At the banquet hosted by Caesar, he once looked at the girl from afar.As they looked at each other, some elusive memories flooded into Lu Mingfei's mind.

He seemed to be with her on a cold night.In the warm light of the fireplace, he danced with Zero.

He even vaguely remembered how beautiful Zero's skirt was at that time.Ling's dance steps are extremely beautiful, like a peacock's tail feathers in full bloom, or a real swan with its neck bent.

But before meeting Zero, he clearly remembered that he had never done anything like dancing with a girl.Before going to the junction, he was simply a bad boy, how could he have such a relationship with the opposite sex.

So, he decided to come and have a careful talk with this girl first.

"Prom." Unexpectedly, Zero slowly chewed these two words, her eyes widened slightly. "Do you remember that dance?"

But soon, Zero regained his icy expression, like a piece of solid ice bridging his crack.

"You're not him. Right?" Zero spit out this sentence indifferently, and the temperature of his tone dropped again.

It seemed that for a moment, Lu Mingfei was her closest attachment.But a second later, as her expression changed, Lu Mingfei became a stranger again in her eyes.

"He? Who is he?" Lu Mingfei remained calm, observing Ling's expression quietly.

"Number zero." Zero turned his head away, as if he didn't want to look at Lu Mingfei again. "'Number Zero' of Black Swan Harbor. You are not him."

No. Zero Lu Mingfei paused slightly. When Zero spit out these two words, a series of thunder and lightning seemed to explode in his mind!

As if there was a sound of cracking in the boundless chaos, in his mind, the memories that had been dusty for many years suddenly revived!
It was really a dance, a Christmas Eve dance.There is strong dance music everywhere, and people are cheering with bottles of wine, celebrating this wonderful night.The smell of beef broth and baking biscuits filled the air, and it seemed like everything was going well but everything looked a little off, as if it was more than just a good party.

No, not right!Lu Mingfei thought carefully, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his spirit.

It wasn't a good Christmas Eve, the ball was full of frenzy, it was a bestial ball!

After careful recollection, Lu Mingfei immediately felt the grotesqueness of that Christmas ball: the air was filled with the perfume of women, strange nurses and soldiers hugged each other tightly, their eyes full of naked desire; The dance steps became more and more distorted, and some boys even threw girls on the ground, hugging and rolling on the carpet; the air was filled with the smell of hallucinogens, and the keyhole in the hall was filled with melted rosin!
It wasn't a dance, it was a crazy ritual, where everyone was burning with desire until they were burned to ashes.The petite Ling stood alone in the middle of the dance floor, holding a dilapidated rag bear in his arms.

That's not a hallucination, that's a distant memory.For some reason, many of his memories have been suppressed and may never be retrieved.

Someone once completely wiped his memory. It was a horrific operation, and his pons were brutally remodeled.However, now that he is King Elden, how can human medical surgery bind the memory of a king?

There was a click, like a mirror shattering.Under Zero's dictation, the blockage of memory was broken layer by layer, and he easily captured the memory of many years ago. It took only a moment for him to understand who Zero was in front of him.

"Zero is not your original name." Lu Mingfei clutched his temple, and under the violent operation of his brain, his blood vessels throbbed like a python: "Your real name is Renata."

Zero looked at him, a trace of astonishment finally appeared on his frozen face, as if he had never expected that he could forcefully recall it.

Lu Mingfei suddenly raised his head, his eyes glowed like molten iron: "That port. You must remember the name of that port."

Facing the ultimate coercion of the red gold dragon eyes, Zero was firmly suppressed.Her iceberg-like expression cracked, as if she had returned to that dark night many years ago.

That night, Zero stared at her with the same fierce eyes, forcing her to undo her straitjacket, so that the young her would not be in danger.

Zero and Lu Mingfei, the two figures slowly overlapped in front of her eyes, but they were full of strange flavors that could not be matched.

"That's... Black Swan Harbor." Zero lowered her head, and in front of the Chijin pupil, she whispered a long-standing place name.

Black Swan Harbor.It was there that she met Zero.But number zero should not be Lu Mingfei, otherwise, the existence of the boss cannot be explained.

But speaking of it, who can explain the existence of the boss?The Boss is always the biggest riddle, always saying things like, "Pull the darling little kid on the throne."Even in the face of a devastating disaster, the boss will not disclose any information.The best he could do was send a brand new bottle of champagne and ask them to calm down.

Now, even the boss who was full of riddles has been hit hard, and she can't even ask the boss for an answer.

"You're not him." Zero shook his head stubbornly, trying hard to chase the shadow that made promises to her from his memories. "He once made a promise to me that I will always be by his side, as long as I am still useful to him."

"Yes." Lu Mingfei put his hand down, and extinguished the red-gold brilliant dragon eyes. "I'm not him."

Zero stared at him blankly, not knowing what to say.

"But your boss, Lu Mingze, is not him either." Lu Mingfei said lightly, "The real number zero has already been penetrated by Kungunir, right?"

"How do you know?" Ling was slightly startled, wondering how Lu Mingfei knew the name Kungunir.

"I know Kungunir's true ability now." Lu Mingfei let out a long breath, and the long memory came to life in his mind, like a bright gas lamp in the dark night.

"Kungunier penetrated No. [-]'s body and split No. [-] into two." Lu Mingfei's voice sank. He was no longer talking to No. [-], but talking to himself in a cold iron voice. "The weaker half became me, and the stronger half became Lu Mingze. If we become one again, we will become number zero and regain some ancient and powerful authority."

"So." Lu Mingfei walked past Ling, and as the autumn morning wind blew, Lu Mingfei's figure fluttered like a battle flag.

"The doctor in Black Swan Harbor, Herzog, he once called Number Zero." Lu Mingfei raised his head and sighed softly.

"...the end of the world." After reading these five words, the golden light in his eyes flickered, like a bright candle burning faintly.
