Dragon Clan: Thought So Far.

Some people say that your happiest time on a journey is always on the way to the destination. When you reach the destination, your sense of happiness will be pushed to the peak, while the return journey will be tiring and lonely, as if even your soul was left behind when you left.

The red Ferrari roared its engine as it drove along the long dark road in the biting evening breeze. The fluorescent signs on both sides flashed, leaving a green glow in Lu Mingfei and Nuonuo's eyes.

Before leaving the mine, they reserved time to eat a steaming hot Sukiyaki pot. In order to catch the early morning flight, Lu Mingfei and Nuonuo finished the Wagyu beef at high speed.

The proprietress lit a warm fire beside them. The flames in the stove jumped with crackling sounds. In the flickering light, Nuonuo lowered her head, but her eyes were bright, staring at Lu Mingfei's face all the time.

Lu Mingfei thought that he might never forget today. He and his senior sister did nothing but watched a sunset he had seen before at the beach.

When the sun disappeared from the sea level, he was looking at the last arc of the sun and the clouds in the sky ignited by that arc. Groups of seagulls flew under the clouds, and their shadows cast on the waves looked like sailboats.

Meanwhile Nono was just looking at him.

When they left, Nuonuo held Lu Mingfei's hand and walked in front. She said, "Junior brother, have you ever dreamed of this place before? I dreamed of Meizuji Town, the sunset, the orange-yellow slow train here, and the white steam that released like the tide when the slow train stopped at the station."

Lu Mingfei thought about it and said that at the beginning, Eri would always appear in his dreams. She tilted her head to look at me and said Sakura was the best. I said I was not good at all and was a loser who could not do anything well. It would have been better if you trusted someone like your senior or the boss at that time. She shook her head and reached out to hug me, but when she got close to me, she turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.

Nuonuo listened to what Lu Mingfei said, and imagined that the little mute who looked so much like her and was even mistaken for her at first put her hand in Lu Mingfei's hand, walked carefully along the thorny path, and stood on the edge of the cliff with the man beside her to watch the sunset. Her eyes were pitifully gorgeous, and her calves were tight and slender when she stood on tiptoe.

They talked a lot on the boulder, and when the sun completely disappeared, they hugged each other like eternal statues. When they left, the thorns on the path were gone.

Nuonuo thought, so that's how it is, so that's how it is...

This was why she wanted to come to Umezuji Town. She really wanted to know what Eri had left for Lu Mingfei that made him so... sad. So sad that he had grown from a little brat into a man of his stature in just one year.

Now she knows.

Because many years ago, there was a loser who hid himself in the darkness, waiting lonely and sadly for someone to love him, but the person he loved would not look at the world in the darkness. The person he loved was bathed in the sunshine. Only the silly girl who was also looking out from loneliness would see the person standing in the shadow like herself.

You are so lonely, and someone tells you that she loves you, how can you not fall in love with her...

When walking down the mountain, Nuonuo suddenly felt a little sad. The mountain wind brought something beyond fate into her profile, and everything that happened in the other world was quietly reconstructed in her mind.

It seems that the tower standing upright in the rainy night of the city emits pink light, and is reflected in the red undulating sea of ​​trees...

Sadness is actually normal.

When you walk along a path that another person has walked, do you also think about the sadness in that person's heart when he or she stayed there?
Lu Mingfei silently held the lit cigarette in his mouth, with one hand on the steering wheel. The cold wind outside the window lifted his hair, but his eyes were hidden in the shadows.

The further north we went, the colder it became. Finally, the tall trees around us were covered with snow. Under the moonlight, the alfalfa fields reflected a silvery-white glow, as if we were walking on the border between heaven and earth.

The red Ferrari was running on the highway like a flame. The high-rise buildings in Ehime Prefecture on both sides were brightly lit. The big toy operated by Lu Mingfei roared its engine as it flew through the alfalfa field on the highway. Immediately, it rushed onto the elevated road in front of the city with a huge sense of being pushed back.

Nuonuo had been drowsy with her cheek against the car window, but at this moment, a sea of ​​light and fire rushed towards her. Her pupils dilated slightly, and her dark red eyes reflected endless light and fire.

"Ehime Prefecture is not a particularly prosperous place, but it is the filming location of "Spirited Away". Senior sister, have you seen Spirited Away?" Lu Mingfei said.

"No, what's wrong." Nuo Nuo opened the car window and put both arms on it. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, and the ends of her hair touched Lu Mingfei's heartstrings.

"Are you a killer who never had a childhood, just like Chu Zihang?"

"Pussy, pussy, you are Chu Zihang's type. Your whole family is Chu Zihang." Nuo Nuo turned around and glared at Lu Mingfei, but her eyes were sparkling.
"Junior brother, do you think today's trip is a bit like the one in Chicago? It's just the two of us, and we didn't bring anyone else."

“Not really.” Lu Mingfei thought about it and shook his head. “That day, a scumbag street artist asked me to spend two hundred dollars to buy a sketch.”

In fact, he also bought a gift today, but not for himself, but for Eri.

Sakurai Nanami told him a long time ago that Eri had actually been learning pottery. She wanted to make a porcelain doll like Lu Mingfei to keep her company, but she failed until the end.

When he passed by a small porcelain doll shop in Umezuji-cho, he asked the master craftsman there to make three dolls in his image.

One for Nono and one for Xia Mi, but the one he really wanted to give it to was Eri.

Low, pitch-black clouds pressed down from the north like mountains, bringing with them a curtain of snow that swept across the entire city like a hundred-meter-high wave.

Lu Mingfei had already predicted that it would snow in Japan at this time of year.

But when he listened carefully, there seemed to be no other sound except the roar of the Ferrari engine in the whistling wind.

It's so quiet, as quiet as...

They are rushing into the kingdom of the dead.

But there would be no Nibelung that could cover Lu Mingfei so quietly. Even an ancient being as powerful as Odin, whom even Xia Mi would be afraid of, had to rely on heavy rain to expand his domain over Lu Mingfei's head.

Then there is only one explanation left.

Someone had constructed a deadly trap here without Lu Mingfei and Nuonuo noticing.

The sound of the helicopter rotors tearing through the strong wind came from far away and seemed to be pressing down from the sky. Lu Mingfei still had a blank expression on his face, but the short arc knife in his sleeve had quietly slid to a place where his palm could hold it.

It was truly a miraculous sight. The middle of the elevated road was blocked by a white wall that rose hundreds or even thousands of meters high. The howling wind was clearly about to tear apart everything in the world that could be torn apart, but the dark clouds carrying the snow curtain stood still like a mountain peak, hovering quietly above the city in front of us.

"We were targeted about the time we stepped out of Haneda Airport in the morning. The enemy is very vigilant and powerful. They can even send out armed helicopters to hunt us down at such a sensitive time." Lu Mingfei casually flicked the cigarette butt out of the window. The Ferrari roared and accelerated, crashing into the endless, dense and impenetrable snow curtain like a red killer whale breaking through the waves.

The car body immediately began to shake violently. Snow and ice crystals fell on the red Ferrari's shell, making crackling sounds. The sky had already darkened, and the street lights on both sides were dimly lit like will-o'-the-wisp lights. Through the billowing snow curtain, the rows of street lights swayed like candles in the wind.

"Did you hear the sound of the helicopter rotor?" Nuonuo asked in a low voice. She actually took out a Scorpion submachine gun from somewhere, held it in her hand and quickly checked it.

"Yeah." Lu Mingfei nodded, "There's also the sound of car engines roaring. They should be following us from a distance, and there may be a whole convoy waiting for us at the end of this road. At the beginning, those people were too far away, so far that even I couldn't hear anything."

"how many people?"

"I don't know, maybe ten cars, or maybe twenty cars. I don't have a sickle-weasel like Caesar. Although my hearing is far better than that of ordinary A-level hybrids, the surrounding environment is too noisy after all." Lu Mingfei's face was calm.

If it was many years ago, he should have been scared to death by now, right? He might even suggest to Nono, "Sister, why don't we pull over and surrender? I heard that the Japanese are treating prisoners well now."

Today, Lu Mingfei didn't even feel the slightest bit of emotion in his heart.

Given his identity and position in Kassel Academy, as well as the threat he could pose to his enemies on the front battlefield, Lu Mingfei would not find it strange even if the Sheqi Eight Families mobilized the entire Executive Bureau to try to arrest him.

At the same time, he was not afraid, because just three minutes ago, three F14 formations took off from the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier in the sea less than kilometers away from here and entered the airspace of Shikoku Island with live ammunition.

At least so far, Lu Mingfei's security level at Kassel Academy is almost equivalent to that of the school director. After he found himself being followed by a group of unknown armed men and possibly attacked, EVA responded quickly.

The mixed-race war in Japan had reached a fever pitch not long ago. All parties involved in the melee had used hot weapons, including tanks, armored vehicles, heavy machine guns, and white phosphorus incendiary bombs. The strongholds of the Menggui Clan and the Eight Snake Clan hidden in the mountains were being wiped out one by one by absolute violence. At this time, there were too many organizations in Japan that were capable of sending out helicopters to encircle and suppress Lu Mingfei.

"I'm guessing this car doesn't have a bulletproof exterior?"

"What do you think? The Tokyo Suzuki Car Rental, a second-hand car that Chu Zihang paid a deposit for, can install bulletproof armor for you?" Nuo Nuo rolled her eyes.

At this time, a strong wind from the sky blew away the snow in front of the Ferrari. Lu Mingfei looked up with his eyes slanted, only to see a black helicopter following behind them in the wind and snow, like a huge falcon.

At the same time, the xenon lamps completely cover the car in light beams from top to bottom.

Lu Mingfei sighed.

"Why does everyone like to block my way with helicopters? Don't they have any original ideas..." he whispered.

What was hovering in the sky was definitely a military helicopter. The Snake Clan and the Ghost Clan all had connections in the Self-Defense Forces. Now that the two gangs had used up their brains, they actually had the nerve to mobilize an extra helicopter to deal with Lu Mingfei.

I don’t know whether to say these people are arrogant or mentally retarded.

The car stereo was making a rustling sound. Lu Mingfei pressed the button to receive the signal, and then an intermittent male voice came out.

The general idea was to ask Lu Mingfei to pull over. They had no ill intentions, but someone wanted to talk to him or something.

The Ferrari began to slowly slow down. They couldn't run far in this kind of weather, and there were definitely more than just one helicopter chasing them. Those high-powered sports cars were roaring towards them like mad beasts.

The blinding lights pierced through the blizzard from both sides and came up from behind, accompanied by the roar of engines like wild beasts.

The body of the Ferrari and the road in front were rendered in bright silver. Lu Mingfei stepped on the brakes, and the brake pads bit the rubber tires and rubbed against the ground, making a sharp and piercing sound.

He glanced at Nuonuo and reached out to pat the girl's thigh next to him.

"Don't be afraid, sister," he said, "I'm here."

"I'm not afraid." said Nono.

She was indeed not afraid. If the people who came really had malicious intentions, the best option would be to directly use the heavy weapons on the armed helicopter to cover the vehicle with firepower.

There is no evidence that the S-class can withstand Hellfire missiles and still survive.

That thing just followed them, like... a deterrent.

Could it be that the ghosts intend to capture them both alive and use them to threaten the secret party?
But even if they succeed, a madman like the principal will not accept the threat. Angers will probably drop from the sky with a rocket launcher and blow these people into meat paste in their lair.

Nuonuo looked back through the rear windshield and saw several black Lexuses parked side by side. These ferocious monsters were approaching at a speed of more than 150 kilometers per hour, and the lights on the driver's seat of each car were bright.

She had a slight thought in her mind, remembering that there was a girl in Genji Heavy Industries who liked to drive Lexus and Hummer.

Could it be that it was Sakura who came?

A Lexus screamed through the blizzard and strong wind and overtook Lu Mingfei and Nuonuo, with bright sparks splashing from the brake discs.

The thing slid forward, turned 360 degrees, smashed through the snow, and came to a sudden stop, its high beams falling on the Ferrari's body.

Lu Mingfei flicked his fingers on the steering wheel, and he seemed to have guessed who was coming.

More cars passed them or stopped behind them. More than a dozen headlights lit up, illuminating the center of the road. Such dense light turned the dense snow curtain into silver.

Lu Mingfei and Nuo Nuo were stunned, and then looked at each other, because an old Japanese folk song suddenly sounded from the car stereo.

As the singing sounded, men in black windbreakers pushed open the doors of their black Lexus, holding huge black umbrellas and standing in the snow. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but only the blazing golden eyes lighting up on their faces, and their hems would be blown by the wind, revealing the brilliant lining like Ukiyo-e.

These people hid in the shadows, the long swords in their hands flashing a cold light, and everyone was secretly guarding the leading car. A slim girl got out of the car, holding up a big umbrella and trotting to the passenger seat to open the door for the person inside, and then the two of them stood together in the headlights in front of the car.

"Lu Jun, run away." Yuan Zhisheng's hoarse voice sounded directly in the car audio.
"After this, you will leave Japan soon. This country... will be finished." (End of this chapter)
