Chapter 21 Fingal

The United flight landed steadily at Chicago International Airport, and under the guidance of the "Cassel College Entrance Guide" distributed by Norma, they took the subway for more than a dozen stops, and Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang landed safely in Chicago again. TRAIN STATION.

It is shameful to waste time.

During the waiting time for the transportation, Lu Mingfei was meditating and praying, and Chu Zihang was also getting used to this pious ceremony that could calm the mind.

……

"There is no express train CC1000 on the train timetable, and the staff on duty at several stations have never heard of this express train."

Chu Zihang held a Burger King paper bag in one hand, and a magnetic card ticket in the other. The black face of the ticket was painted in silver with the pattern of a giant tree with luxuriant branches and leaves.

Their magnetic card tickets could indeed pass through the ticket inspection machine, but after waiting all night, the so-called CC1000 express train still did not appear.

Fortunately, the Chicago Railway Station is as magnificent as a church, and the environment is quiet and beautiful at night. It is not too bad to stay here for one night.

"Wait, maybe I can come today... Thank you."

Lu Mingfei took the steaming smoked beef burger from Chu Zihang's hand, and eagerly took a big bite.

Then a look of happiness and intoxication.

"you are welcome."

Chu Zihang took a sip of the hot milk and realized that his "brother" enjoyed all kinds of delicious food very much.

However, he didn't ask too much about the various mysteries of the other party, and the two of them just kept a subtle distance.

But I have to admit that I do feel a sense of security next to this brother who is one or two years younger than me.

Chu Zihang has been encouraging himself in his heart to get familiar with the battle as soon as possible, so that he can truly fight side by side with Lu Mingfei, and fight back to that stormy night together.

"Can the uncle give you a stutter?"

A pair of candle-like eyes suddenly popped out, staring at the hamburger in his hand.

Chu Zihang was taken aback, and looked at the tall and burly young man in front of him.

The face buried in the chicken nest and the beard can be regarded as handsome, the dark green checked shirt and the dragged trousers are wrinkled and dirty, and I don't know how long it hasn't been washed.

"I have another one here, you can eat it."

Before Chu Zihang reached out, Lu Mingfei smiled gently and handed over his second hamburger.

"My lord! No! Angel! You are a good fellow here!"

The young beggar was so excited that tears filled his eyes and he devoured it hungrily.

"...Are you a student of Cassel College?"

Chu Zihang listened to the other party's fluent Chinese, which even tasted like Beijing movies, and suddenly asked.

The beggar was shocked when he heard this.

He raised his head, and tears welled up in his eyes:

"Dear ones! I finally found you!"

……

After eating four hamburgers and two cups of coffee, Fingel von Frings raised his arms and shouted:
"Good! Resurrected!"

"When does the CC1000 express usually come?"

Chu Zihang looked at this "informal" German guy and asked.

"I have to see this..."

Fingel took out a crumpled start clock from his satchel, with the half-decayed World Tree school badge on it:

"Ah...I'm afraid I have to wait for two days."

"Two days?"

"There's no way around it, future junior, this bus has people waiting for the bus, but no car waiting for anyone."

"The academy is in the mountains. If you don't take this one, you can only go there by helicopter."

Finger said helplessly.

"Why isn't there a timetable for this train at the Chicago depot?"

Chu Zihang asked.

"This train was specially approved by the Chicago government. The branch train departed at irregular times, knowing that its last conductor just died."

Fingel didn't care, "Anyway, I'm used to it. If the class is high, the instructor will send a car to pick it up, and the VIP passage is still..."

Unless the CC1000 Express is a Land Raider, Lu Mingfei is not interested in special cars or VIPs.

He stared at this scruffy but strong German guy as if he were looking at a mule and horse about to be crowned.

He needs a missionary to spread the glory of the emperor, and Fingel, who speaks fluent Chinese and is a student of Kassel, is obviously a good candidate.

But given his more scruffy image, that remains to be seen.

At this moment, bells and sirens sounded in the empty station. At 23:1000 in the morning, the CC[-] express train entered the station.

"The car is coming!"

Fingel cheered up, "Why so fast this time?"

"Two junior brothers, let's get into the car!"

he greeted.

A conductor in a dark green uniform appeared at the ticket gate, ringing a small golden bell in his hand, with a golden conductor's badge pinned to his hat.

The pocket watch tied with a gold chain was in the small pocket of the vest, and a complicated and quaint badge was hung on the chest. On the badge was a giant tree that was half prosperous and half dead.

He scanned the waiting hall with few people, and then walked quickly across the hall to Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, ignoring Finger who was standing there in a daze.

"Excuse me, are they Lu Mingfei and Mr. Chu Zihang?"

"I'm very sorry, because there are some urgent items that need to be delivered, there is a problem with the train transfer."

"Can I see the tickets of the two of you?"

With a humble smile on his face, he bowed slightly.

The few passengers in the waiting hall exclaimed and looked at Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang with jealousy and envy.

The appearance of this elegant conductor seems to bring people back to the time when the station was just completed a hundred years ago.

At that time, the train was still the best way to travel, and the people waiting for the train were all famous people.

At that time, the ticket inspectors were dressed like this. They were humble and warm, but they were full of energy. They greeted every passenger with a smile:
"Mr/Madam XX, I wish you a good mood along the way."

It's not like today, where the ticket checkers are all low-income aunts, who sit there fat and don't even bother to stand up.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang took out the tickets, and the conductor brandished shiny silver scissors, cut them beautifully, and handed them back to them with both hands:
"Welcome aboard..."

"Hey, hey, there's me too!"

Fingal waved the ticket.

The conductor glanced at him, and took out a small credit card machine from behind:

"Here, brush yourself."

"You!"

Fingel was exasperated by the conductor's disparate treatment.

But in the end, he had no choice but to swipe the ticket on the machine by himself.

"beep."

The card reader lights up green.

"Fingel, are you going to be relegated again this year?"

"I thought you wouldn't be able to drop out this year."

The conductor said with a smile, his tone and smile were just like a hotel owner who laughed at Kong Yiji:

"Kong Yiji, did you steal from someone again today?"

"I've been downgraded to E-level, how can I go down? This is the lowest."

Fingel made a bitter face.

"It is said that the professors of the college are planning to add an F grade. As the person who refreshes the lower limit of the rating every time, you should feel honored."

The conductor put away the credit card machine, and the smile on his face became humble again:

"S-level student Lu Mingfei, and A-level student Chu Zihang, welcome to take the CC1000 express train. Professor Manstein is waiting for you two on board."

 Thanks for the 5000 reward support from EX Little Black Cat!

  Thanks to Angly Xuanyin, Qizhi Yongyi,
