Lu Mingfei doesn't want to be a superhero

Chapter 33 Cassell College

In the United States, in a deep mountain in the outskirts of Chicago.

An extremely luxurious building complex stretches between the saddles of two mountains.

Angers sat on the sofa in the principal's office, brewed a cup of Ceylon black tea for himself, turned his head and looked out the window, and there was a waning moon on the eaves of the tall bell tower.

The night at Cassell Academy was as usual...

"boom--"

A violent explosion resounded, and the teacup jumped on the cup holder, making a tinkling sound. A few drops of black tea splashed out of the cup, and fell on the snow-white documents beside it, blooming light-colored flowers.

The pillar of fire soaring into the sky covered up the brilliance of the moon, and the shadows of the buildings under the strong light became more obvious. Ange's eyes were covered by the shadow cast by his high browbones, making it hard to see his expression.

Nights at Kassel Academy were as raucous as ever.

Angers picked up his teacup and took a sip - he had long been used to these occasional explosions.

Weird.

He placed the teacup heavily on the desk and made a loud "dong" sound. Anger dialed the phone at hand: "Norma, help me transfer to Director Acadura of the Equipment Department."

"Equipment Department" is actually an abbreviation. Its full name is "Institute of Alchemy and Science and Engineering Application". Because the name is really long and complicated, everyone usually calls it the Equipment Department. Therefore, the boss of the Equipment Department does not have a position. Not "minister" but "director".

The job of these people is to "transform the theories of science and alchemy into practical applications", but 90% of the practical applications they research are explosives. From this perspective, a more suitable abbreviation for them should actually be "bombs". A concentration camp for madmen".

After a brief "beep -" sound, the phone was connected.

"Hello, the user you dialed is not in the service area, please dial later..." The sweet voice of the female operator came from the phone.

"Director Arcadullah," Anger took a deep breath, "this is in the United States, and what you played is the Chinese notification ringtone."

The sweet female operator's voice was immediately replaced by a rough male voice: "Hasn't our school started to fully promote Chinese? I am in line with the school policy!"

"I don't care what you connect with!" Anger finally couldn't hold back anymore, "Director Arcadullah, I want you to explain today's explosion!"

"Don't worry, principal, it's just a small mistake," Chief Akadullah said indifferently, "It's just an alchemical sulfur bomb."

"Are you setting up a large bomb in the school? And there was an accident!?" Anger felt that his head was hurting.

"Accident? No, who said there was an accident," Director Arcadura's tone finally changed, with a feeling of anger that seemed to be questioned, "This is an insult to the professional capabilities of our equipment department!"

"How did it blow up without accident?" Anger was stunned.

"We detonated it," Director Arcadullah said in a tone that we just popped popcorn for supper. "If we don't detonate it, how can we test and make it unsuccessful? We are rigorous scientific researchers, we must To ensure that every data is true and reliable..."

"Wait for me!" Anger's hand holding the microphone was tense, "That is to say, you are conducting a test explosion of a large alchemy bomb in school?!"

"Actually, I've wanted to correct a mistake in your dialogue from the very beginning." Director Akadullah said.

"what?"

"We are indeed conducting a test explosion, but the specifications of the alchemy bomb are far from 'large', because it is only the initial test product, and the explosive power of this bomb is probably equivalent to the equivalent of two tons of TNT. It’s a bit too much for a miniature, so we were just arguing whether it should be classified as a ‘harmless type’ under the ‘miniature’…”

"Harmless type?" Anger suspected that the explosion just now affected the communication line, so that the syllables of Acadura were recombined, making himself misunderstand the meaning of his words.

"That's right, the standard for the harmless type is a weapon with an equivalent of less than two tons of TNT, but when we set the standard for the harmless type, we forgot to make it clear that it does not include two tons of itself, so this exactly two-ton alchemy bomb cannot It's too easy to define..." Director Akadullah explained.

"If my military knowledge has not expired, the explosive power of a grenade is about [-] grams of TNT. You call [-] grenades harmless weapons, and test them in school?" Anger bit his back Molar asked.

"Don't worry, principal, the energy of this bomb is mainly vented in the form of heat, and there won't be any big explosion." Director Acadura said.

"Stop this dangerous experiment immediately!" Angers ordered.

"How can this kind of experiment be considered dangerous?" Director Acadura's tone was full of doubts.

Angers: ...

He found that even after working together for so many years, it was difficult for him to keep up with the thinking mode of the equipment department.

"How about this, you suspend the experiment that will explode first, I will apply to the school board of directors to build a sub-testing site for you in the barren hills [-] kilometers away from the college, where you can set up a laboratory branch and conduct tests, How about it?" Angers decided to change his mind.

"Great!" Director Accadula immediately changed his previous laxity, and his tone revealed a respect between the dog's legs and Party B, "Then we will wait for the good news from you, the principal."

Angers breathed a sigh of relief.

In the future, the explosion incidents in the school should be significantly reduced. As for the construction of a laboratory branch for the equipment department...Anyway, those big dogs in the school board of directors paid for it, and Angers didn't feel bad.

"However, principal, since the experiment is going to be suspended, can I apply for a vacation for the equipment department by the way?" Director Akadullah pouted.

"Didn't you just suspend your research on explosives?" Anger asked.

"But our research is all related to explosives." Director Arcadullah said.

Ange hung up the phone tiredly.

The heat of Ceylon black tea is still rising, but he is not in the mood to drink black tea now.

He just wants to get a good night's sleep, and then go on a business trip tomorrow, wherever he wants, as long as he can stay away from the blasters in the academy.

Rubbing his temples, Anger picked up a stack of documents from the table. On the top of the document was a form similar to a resume, but with much more detailed information.

Among them, one item is marked in red with an extra large font, which is particularly conspicuous-awakening state: awakened.

In the upper right corner of the form is a photo of a young man with delicate features but high spirits.

Vague memories churned in Ange's mind, like a photo under the water surface, but the shimmering light made it impossible to see the portrait clearly.

There was only a face that was so old that it was almost yellow, and it became clearer and clearer, as if it could fit the young man in the photo.

"Norma," Anger said, "help me arrange a plane to China."

"Are you going to the city where S-level student Lu Mingfei is located?" Norma asked, "I found a direct flight, but you can also take the Gulfstream G550 modified by the equipment department. After applying, you can go directly to the airport Land, this will arrive faster..."

"I'm traveling to meet the descendants of old friends, not on a business trip," Angers shook his head. "Let me, an old man, take some comfortable transportation."

"Understood," Norma said, "The air ticket has been booked for you, do you need to prepare in advance about recruiting Lu Mingfei?"

"No hurry, just prepare according to the normal date. Although geniuses are always special, there is no need for everything to be special," Anger said. , it should be more convenient if there is a local guide, tell him that this can add credits."

"Yes." Norma said.

"By the way," Anger was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Norma, please check for me. In China now, when the elders want to visit the younger generation, what gifts do they usually bring?"

Norma: "Huh?"

……

On the other side of the ocean, at the door of Su Xiaoqiang's house.

"Little celestial girl, I'm coming in!" Lu Mingfei shouted, then pushed the door open and entered.

Because he had come and gone many times, he was quite familiar with the way, so he opened the door and walked into the living room on his own.

Then I happened to see Su Xiaoqiang who was sitting on the sofa, putting the bow on the violin.

Seeing Lu Mingfei coming in, Su Xiaoqiang glanced at him, turned his eyes, and signaled him to keep quiet and sit down.

Perhaps it was because they had been arguing for a long time, and there was a tacit understanding between them. With such complicated eyes, Lu Mingfei could vaguely understand it, and immediately walked over quickly and lightly, and sat beside Su Xiaoqiang.

After Lu Mingfei sat down, Su Xiaoqiang slowly pulled the bow.

The mellow and delicate notes flow from the gap between the bow and the strings, and it can be heard that this is a high-quality violin.

Su Xiaoqiang played the violin with forgetfulness, as if singing a graceful poem, and the whole person was intoxicated by it.

Lu Mingfei listened with his chin resting on the side, yawning from time to time.

At the end of the song, Su Xiaoqiang put down the violin and looked at Lu Mingfei with disgust: "Tsk, I have no taste at all."

When she plays a piece of music, Lu Mingfei can't wait to yawn all day long, just like the old cow grazing grass in the idiom "playing the piano to the cow".

"I can't listen to such elegant music." Lu Mingfei said truthfully.

"I'll take you to the Golden Concert Hall in Vienna some other day, and learn a lot." Su Xiaoqiang said.

"No, no, no," Lu Mingfei waved his hands again and again, "I really can't appreciate this kind of elegant art."

He is not self-effacing, he has been to the Boston Concert Hall in Tony's world, and almost fell asleep in it, if he hadn't pinched himself to stay awake, he would probably have started snoring.

At that time, he had already awakened his ability, and he could tell that those songs were very pleasant and had high technical content, but because they were not compatible, he really couldn't appreciate them, just like no matter how expensive caviar is, some people can't get used to it.

"Then from your own perspective, what do you think of the violin I just played?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.

"The violin is not bad," Lu Mingfei said seriously, "The master who made the violin is very skilled."

"Who asked you about the piano," Su Xiaoqiang glared at him, "I'm asking you how good I was at playing the piece just now."

"Well... I can give it ten points." Lu Mingfei said.

"Hmph, you have good vision." Even though he knew that Lu Mingfei was flattering him, Su Xiaoqiang was still a little happy, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"A perfect score of [-]." Lu Mingfei added.

"You!" Su Xiaoqiang swung the bow like a long knife out of its sheath, pointing directly at Lu Mingfei's face.

Lu Mingfei’s evaluation is actually very pertinent from a personal point of view. Although Su Xiaoqiang’s violin is already quite good among amateurs, but this time, the only time Lu Mingfei listened to the violin in his life was at the Boston Concert Hall. Internationally renowned ensemble ensemble.

He was able to give Su Xiaoqiang ten points because of his two-and-a-half years of affection, and he scored against his conscience.

But looking at Su Xiaoqiang's angry look, Lu Mingfei felt that he should make amends, after all, he still pointed to fooling Su Xiaoqiang to earn the first pot of gold.

"Although the piano skills can only be scored ten points, but the piano player is very beautiful and delicious, he can score ninety points!" Lu Mingfei said seriously, "It adds up to a perfect score!"

"Go! You are sarcasm, calling me a vase!"

Su Xiaoqiang originally wanted to hit him with the bow, but when he raised the bow, he suddenly realized that the bowstring was a bit thin and might hurt people, so he angrily put down the bowstring and the violin, got up and hit Lu Mingfei with his hands.

Lu Mingfei quickly avoided.

The two of you chased me around the living room, Lu Mingfei controlled his speed to be about the same as Su Xiaoqiang's, dodging left and right, but he didn't get caught by Su Xiaoqiang.

He couldn't help feeling a little proud.

It seems that in Tony's world, the fighting skills he learned are still useful, and Su Xiaoqiang will never try to hit him again.

After chasing Lu Mingfei for a round, Su Xiaoqiang panted slightly, with one hand on his hips, feeling even angrier in her heart, staring at Lu Mingfei angrily, her two little tiger teeth grinding back and forth, as if she would immediately kill Lu Mingfei if she caught Lu Mingfei. Take a bite of him.

Lu Mingfei had a smug look on his face, and that expression was as much owed as he wanted.

Su Xiaoqiang chased after him again, but Lu Mingfei dodged, but with his super dynamic vision, he saw that Su Xiaoqiang was wearing slippers and kicked the corner of the table.

"Hmm..." Su Xiaoqiang lost his balance and fell down.

With a flash of her figure, Lu Mingfei caught her and held her steady.

This posture is quite ambiguous, Su Xiaoqiang's chest is almost pressed against Lu Mingfei's chest.

But she wasn't shy, because the pain from kicking the corner of the table made her face distorted.

Lu Mingfei quickly supported her to sit on the sofa. After a long time, Su Xiaoqiang's distorted expression from the pain calmed down, and he glared at Lu Mingfei even more angrily.

He quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, little celestial girl, why did you suddenly start playing the violin? I've never seen you play the violin before."

"What kind of cultural show is the school going to hold this time? It is said that it is for the students to relax and relieve pressure before the sprint for the third year of high school," Su Xiaoqiang explained while staring at Lu Mingfei, "All students can go up and perform their talents."

"Oh, I get it, so you want to play the violin." Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"Well, I learned a little bit before, but I haven't practiced it for a long time, so I seem to have forgotten it all." Su Xiaoqiang's tone was a little low, "Why don't I sign up..."

"No, you have to sign up!" Lu Mingfei hastily stopped.

As Su Xiaoqiang's bad friend, how could he let go of this opportunity to have fun.

"But even you don't think it sounds good..." Su Xiaoqiang shook his head.

"No, what do you mean 'even I don't think it sounds good'," Lu Mingfei was dissatisfied, "I just put forward a pertinent opinion! I have actually learned the violin before!"

"Have you ever learned it?" Su Xiaoqiang was full of disbelief, "Then play a song."

"Ahem," Lu Mingfei coughed lightly, "I haven't played it for a long time, why don't you lend me the violin for two days, and I'll get back the feel first?"

"Hmph..." Lu Mingfei's performance was obviously guilty, Su Xiaoqiang sneered, "Okay, how about the day after tomorrow?"

Then she can laugh at Lu Mingfei to her heart's content.

"No problem!" Lu Mingfei answered straight away.

……

In Su Xiaoqiang's bedroom.

Su Xiaoqiang was studying in the living room, and Lu Mingfei borrowed her computer.

Inserting his own USB flash drive into Su Xiaoqiang's computer host, Lu Mingfei began to human fleshly reproduce the metallurgical technology data in his memory.

After a long time, he finally got a part of the huge workload done, and Lu Mingfei was about to breathe a sigh of relief for himself.

But after hesitating for a while, thinking of Su Xiaoqiang's sneer today, Lu Mingfei opened the browser and entered a line of words in the search bar——
