Lu Mingfei: Hogwarts repeater

Chapter 86 Lu Mingfei: How come there are Nibelungs everywhere!

The rising sun casts a red glow on the sky, and its light spreads far away, coating the eaves, trees, and people on the playground with a light golden edge.

Lu Mingfei, who was sitting on the steps of the teaching building next to him, stretched out and stuffed the last bite of pancake into his mouth.

To be precise, this thing is called "Jianbing Pancake". It has pancakes on the outside and various ingredients inside. There is also a thin and crispy fried thing called "Pancake", which is a bit like the fried yuba in the South.

It tastes very good, much better than the "bean juice" I tasted last night. However, this thing is not a characteristic of the capital, but of Jinmen.

Lu Mingfei felt that the only local delicacy that could not go wrong was probably Peking duck, which would never be unpalatable.

"Let's go try it with senior brother after it's over?" Lu Mingfei thought boredly, his eyes scanning the crowd in the playground.

Like most opening ceremonies, the opening ceremony of the Olympic Winter Camp contained little of nutritional value.

The process is basically the same. First, "I'd like to invite the leader so-and-so below" and "I'll say a few words." Then half an hour passes and the next leader is replaced.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei didn't need to stand there and listen. He was not a formal member of the winter camp. He was brought here by the math teacher to "feel the atmosphere" and he did not have to take the exam like Chu Zihang.

Of course, this "no need to take the exam" means that you don't have to take the formal exam, and you will definitely still have to do the questions in private. The math teacher certainly didn't bring him here just to let him live and eat for free.

"Lu Mingfei, here!"

It really means Cao Cao. When Cao Cao arrived, Lu Mingfei turned his head when he heard the shout and saw the math teacher waving to him.

"I'm coming!"

Lu Mingfei, who had long been bored, jumped up lightly, stuffed the plastic bag into the trash can, and jogged all the way to the math teacher, "Teacher, what are your orders?"

"Let me ask you, how are you doing?" The math teacher patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, looking forward to it.

"Uh... I've eaten pretty well and it's not cold." Lu Mingfei touched his belly and assessed it as full.

"I'm not asking you this," the math teacher said with shame. "I'm asking you how your brain is doing. Are you thinking clearly now and can you do the questions?"

"Of course, it's absolutely no problem!" Lu Mingfei nodded decisively, thinking, "But it's hard to say what Senior Brother Chu's condition is."

Last night, Chu Zihang couldn't close his golden eyes because of his excitement, and he didn't fall asleep until he ran out of energy.

When he woke up this morning, although his face was paralyzed and expressionless, Lu Mingfei could still tell that he was a little distracted, and he didn't know if it would affect his ability to answer questions.

Fortunately, the Mathematical Olympiad Winter Camp was scheduled to have an opening ceremony on the first day, and the exam would officially start on the second day, leaving Chu Zihang with a full day of adjustment time.

"That's good, follow me." The math teacher motioned for Lu Mingfei to follow him.

"Teacher...are we going to steal the exam questions?" Lu Mingfei asked in a low voice as he saw that he was heading towards the west building of the teaching building, which is the exam room.

"Let me explain first, although I respect you very much, I am also a good student who abides by the law and cannot do such a thing."

"How is that possible!" The math teacher shook his head decisively, "Do you think I am that kind of person?"

"I don't think so either." Lu Mingfei breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm just taking you to meet the examiner." the math teacher added.

"You can actually use the back door? I didn't expect your relationship to be so strong, teacher!"

Lu Mingfei looked amazed. "Can I declare to the outside world that I am your disciple in the future? I have no other intention, I just want to hug you."

"Is there a possibility that using the back door is also an act of violation of laws and disciplines. At this time, you are no longer a good student?" The math teacher looked at him speechlessly.

"I have a flexible standard for three good students!" Lu Mingfei's eyes were firm as if he was saying a solemn oath.

"It's a pity that it's useless no matter how flexible the standard line is for this kind of thing. What you need is a high enough IQ line!" The math teacher patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, "Are you ready to show your face in front of the examiner?"

"I understand the truth, but...it's time for the opening ceremony. As an examiner, aren't you on the podium in the playground?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Otherwise, why do you think he is the 'examiner' and not the 'examiner'?" the math teacher asked with a smile, then opened the door of the conference room.

There was only one person in the conference room, but it was filled with smoke. A man in his sixties, who seemed not to be easy to get along with, was sitting in his seat, puffing away smoke.

The math teacher came in with Lu Mingfei, and the examiner just raised his eyes, then lowered his eyes again, pushed a piece of paper forward lightly, and took another puff of cigarette without saying anything.

"Sure enough, the test questions are leaked. Teacher, I understand the rules of the world. At this time, shouldn't we pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand?" Lu Mingfei whispered.

"Cough! Cough cough..."

This statement made the smoking examiner choke suddenly and cough repeatedly. Before he could recover, his face turned red and he coughed and said, "Ahem... what nonsense!"

"Look at what you kid said, how did you choke Mr. Chen?"

The math teacher pretended to scold Lu Mingfei, but the smile on his face was so obvious that the examiner known as "Old Chen" glared at him.

"Ahem... Am I the kind of person who is willing to leak exam questions to others and use the back door? You are insulting me. Even if I die here or jump from here, there is absolutely no way anyone can use the back door!" Old Chen said fiercely.

"Yes, yes, you are the most upright, and it's not like I don't know." The math teacher stepped forward nonchalantly, picked up the piece of paper, and handed it to Lu Mingfei.

"Okay, here, this is a question. I told Lao Chen about your abilities, but he didn't believe it. No, I'll bring you here so he can learn more about it. Take a look!"

Lu Mingfei took it and took a closer look——

"Nonsense, what you said is too mysterious."

Lao Chen took a sip of water and flicked the cigarette ashes with his right hand, "No matter how fast your brain is, it's impossible to figure out the answer to a question of this level at a glance.

Young man, don't stand there stupidly. There is paper and pen over there. Let's do the math slowly. The Mathematical Olympiad competition lasts for two days, with four and a half hours each day to test three questions. This question is just as difficult as the second question. If you write it within an hour, you will be considered the fastest..."

"46."

Lu Mingfei put the paper on the table.

The conference room fell silent instantly.

"You..." Old Chen said blankly, "What did you say?"

"The answer is at least 46 different numbers," Lu Mingfei smiled slightly, "I've checked it."

The entire conference room fell into dead silence again... Old Chen Jing sat in his seat and even stopped breathing. This was probably a classic "petrification" link in anime.

The math teacher silently picked up the piece of paper and looked at the question carefully. After watching for a while, he raised his head and looked at Lao Chen, breaking the dead silence: "Is the answer correct?"

"Hiss!" Lao Chen woke up instantly, but not because of the math teacher's question, but because the cigarette butt in his hand burned his fingers.

He threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray, and without checking the injury on his finger, he stood up suddenly and leaned forward. It seemed that this was the only way to see Lu Mingfei's face clearly, and it seemed that this was the way to verify whether Lu Mingfei was a monster.

He stared at Lu Mingfei for a moment, then suddenly turned his head to look at the math teacher.

"Don't look at me. I haven't read the question you asked and I don't know the answer." The math teacher knew what he was thinking and said directly.

"Looking at you like this, the answer is right? How about it, do you believe it now? There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world!"

Lao Chen ignored him, but turned his head sharply to look at Lu Mingfei: "How... did you do that?"

"Just calculated it?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head, "It's just addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and elimination..."

"..." Old Chen fell back into his chair speechlessly and stared at Lu Mingfei blankly.

No more verification is needed.

In fact, if my old friend hadn't said it was too outrageous, there would not have been this verification step.

At this moment, with the facts before his eyes, he couldn't help but not believe it.

At the math teacher's signal, Lu Mingfei left first.

When he returned to the playground, the opening ceremony had not yet been completed.

"Hey, Old Chen, there's no need to go to this level, right?" The math teacher shook his hand in Old Chen's eyes.

"This is assuming that I've vaccinated you. If you meet him without warning like me, what's the point?" Amidst the sound of the chair scraping against the ground, Lao Chen suddenly jerked Stand up and scare the math teacher.

He stared at the math teacher with burning eyes: "You said before that he did not participate in this Mathematical Olympiad winter camp?"

"Ah, yes, there is no way. He didn't even participate in the first preliminaries of the math league, so he definitely didn't get a spot." The math teacher said.

"Put him in," Old Chen said in a shocked voice, "It would be a pity to miss such a genius for a year!"

"You're more ruthless than leaking the test questions through the back door. You've just blocked people." The math teacher had expected it, so he just smiled and said teasingly.

"Why, I remember someone just said that they would never let anyone use the back door to find a relationship, otherwise they would jump off..."

"I'll jump right now!" Lao Chen puffed his beard and glared, "Will you help me with this?"

"Don't make trouble. After all these years, you still have the same temper. Is it a question of whether to block people or not?" The math teacher shook his head.

"On the one hand, there is no such precedent, and it is inappropriate to rush into this position.

Some people have sinister intentions, and it’s not like you don’t know it. It may be okay that Lu Mingfei’s strength is always online, but what if his performance is poor later on, and they will use this as an excuse to criticize him?

Come in an upright manner, follow the rules, and no one will be able to gossip.

On the other hand, Lu Mingfei still has room to grow. Now that he has been exposed prematurely, the tree will be destroyed by the wind..."

……

After the opening ceremony, it was time for rest again. It will not be until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning that the Mathematical Olympiad Winter Camp officially begins the exam.

The seemingly loose schedule is actually quite compact.

After all, it is a Mathematical Olympiad question that requires a lot of brain capacity. There are three questions a day. The people here are probably the best in mathematics among middle school students in the country. They are all given four and a half hours to answer the questions... You can imagine the amount of calculations and How much mental exertion will there be.

Lu Mingfei was an exception because he cheated. The effect of Professor Snape's Baffy Brain Refreshing Potion and Intelligence Enhancer on him was not just a little bit strong, but also lasted for a long time, which was equivalent to multiple semi-permanent intelligence buffs.

It can only be said that fortunately there is no drug testing in the Mathematical Olympiad competition, otherwise a generation of "geniuses" may have perished... Of course, it is more likely that modern pharmaceuticals cannot detect the ingredients of the magic potion.

It is normal not to have a drug test. In people's perception, mathematics cannot be done no matter how urgent it is, and drugs will not have any effect.

During this "relaxation" time, most of the participating students will not actually leave the hotel to have fun and relax.

There is no point in cramming for Mathematical Olympiad questions temporarily, so many people choose to do some easy college entrance examination final questions to maintain their state without using too much mental energy to avoid having no time to recover.

Only Lu Mingfei seemed out of place in this slightly tense atmosphere.

He is not officially participating in this winter camp!
  Although I have to go there tomorrow, I only get the questions from the math teacher after the exam starts, and then do it in the conference room of the examiner who gave the questions...

Lu Mingfei didn't know who the math teacher was, but he knew from his actions that it was definitely not simple.

No wonder the principal of Shilan Middle School and all the teachers of various subjects were criticized by him for quarreling with other scholars. This is a living Buddha whose background is so big that he cannot afford to offend him and can only support him!

Lu Mingfei thought, his eyes wandering, sometimes falling on Chu Zihang who was doing the questions seriously, and sometimes looking at the street scene outside.

"The morning glow travels thousands of miles without going outside" is true. The sun, which was still so bright in the morning, is now covered by clouds that come from nowhere.

The sky is gloomy, not the leaden gray that almost caused Lu Mingfei to develop PTSD, but gray and white. It seems that the rain will not be too heavy... No, with the current sub-zero temperature in Jinquan, it should be snow?

Lu Mingfei was suddenly startled when he saw a speck of white passing by the window.

That's not an illusion, it's a fact! Lu Mingfei stood up and came to the floor-to-ceiling window. Another particle, and another...countless white particles fell from the sky from far to near, as if the sky was starting to play with pure white Tetris.

"It's snowing!" Lu Mingfei said in surprise.

"The weather forecast says there is extremely cold air, which is expected to cause widespread snowfall." Chu Zihang was writing a question in front of the hotel table without raising his head.

He was back to the senior brother who represented "reliable", which actually made Lu Mingfei relieved.

Lu Mingfei looked at the snowy scene in the distance, and his heart moved. He clearly had never seen snow in his memory, but for some reason, a vague scene of ice and snow emerged from the bottom of his heart.

It seems... there is also a strand of platinum hair.

Platinum blonde hair? Lu Mingfei thought of Ling.

Why do you think of zero at this time?
  Lu Mingfei was a little confused and couldn't figure it out. A certain thought in his heart wanted to jump out more and more, but in the end it fell silent.

So he took out his mobile phone, took a photo, and edited the MMS. After thinking about it, he sent a copy to both Su Xiaoqiang and Ling, with the text - "It's snowing!"

It didn't take long for him to receive a reply, which was from Zero.

zero:【? 】

Zero: [Su Xiaoqiang is by my side]

Why add such an extra sentence? It looks strange! Lu Mingfei was sweating a little.

Then he received another reply from Su Xiaoqiang.

Su Xiaoqiang: [Tch... remember to wait until the snow becomes thicker and step on it. You can also write your name in the snow! Remember to take a photo for me when you’re done writing it]

Why wait until it gets thicker? Of course, go now!

Lu Mingfei couldn't wait to put it on: "Senior brother, how about you sit here for a while while I go out for a walk?"

"Are you going out now?" Chu Zihang, who was doing a question, looked at him.

"I haven't seen snow in my life..."

Originally, Lu Mingfei meant to say that he had never seen it before, but in view of the strange fragments in his mind, he finally added "like".

"Just hang out downstairs and I'll be back soon. Senior brother, just do the questions first!" Lu Mingfei quickly changed his clothes and hurried out without waiting for Chu Zihang's response.

……

As far as the eye can see, the whole city seems to have turned into a world of ice and snow in an instant. The snow particles fell on the ground and were covered with a new layer before they could melt. Falling like cotton wool.

Lu Mingfei looked at all this in surprise. First he stepped on it as Su Xiaoqiang said, making a "squeaking" sound, and then tried to write a name and take a photo... and had a great time.

Until he suddenly noticed a dangerous look coming from him.

He raised his head and met the owner of that gaze.

It was a person whose whole body was wrapped in a down jacket. The bloated clothing made it vaguely possible to see that she was a woman of average height... but her face was completely obscured by a thick scarf and hat, and her eyes were dazzling golden pupils!

She looked at Lu Mingfei, then suddenly turned around and followed the flow of people towards the subway entrance.

Lu Mingfei frowned. When he looked at him, the Nibelung mark on his shoulder blades felt faintly burning.

He hesitated a little and followed.

However, as soon as he entered the subway entrance and stepped off the elevator, Lu Mingfei was stunned.

The flow of people... disappeared, and only the sounds of footsteps and words could be heard everywhere, but they were all moving away, no one could be seen, and a green mist began to fill the underground passage!
  Lu Mingfei took a breath of cold air and turned around to leave, but the moment he turned around, his footsteps stopped... because the sound of raindrops hitting the ceiling of the subway entrance had already reached his ears.

It's snowing outside. Where did the heavy rain come from?
  But the water was already flowing down the elevator.

Lu Mingfei remained silent and turned around again, facing the underground passage that was filled with mist in just one turn.

A pair of golden eyes pierced the mist, and her figure swayed and disappeared into the mist.

The Nibelung Seal on his shoulder blades has become almost hot.

There is no need to leave anymore. You cannot get out of this world by walking.

When Lu Mingfei thought about what he was thinking when he set out to leave his city, he wanted to give himself a slap in the face at that time and said to himself, "You are still too young and don't know the dangers of society", or "I'll let you be a crow." "!
  "How come there are Nibelungs everywhere!"

PS: Today’s rational discussion post – will Lu Mingfei penetrate this Nibelung? Do you have this ability?
  　Five thousand in this chapter!
  　　I can't help it, there are a lot of things today... Hey, try to be as early as possible tomorrow to celebrate the New Year. Please understand, thank you...
