Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 251 Tokyo Love Story ver.2.0
"It seems that you lack some understanding of the Uesugi family." Renata looked at Lu Mingfei quietly and said.

Come to think of it, I’ve only known them for less than two days... Lu Mingfei paused, and suddenly remembered that the last time Renata spoke to him with such a serious expression, she was talking about Gattuso’s family.

Renata continued: "The Uesugi family is different from the Gattuso family. They are still developing the underworld and have no intention of withdrawing, let alone reforming."

"He plans to go down this path completely to the end." Lu Mingfei sighed. He thought of the second young lady of the Uesugi family who liked to wear Hanfu.

If you look closely, that smiling, gentle, and charming look really fits his imagination of a gangster lady. As for the real eldest and third daughters of the Uesugi family... well, Uesugi Nanryusei doesn't know much about them, so I won't comment. As for Uesugi Erie...

All I can say is that when the Third Miss was not with him, she looked like a beautiful lady from the upper class, and indeed she did look a bit like a gangster lady.

As for Lucrecia… the former eldest daughter of a mafia family would not comment.

Renata continued, "The Japanese underworld was originally controlled by an organization called the Snake Eight Families. As the name suggests, it is an alliance of eight families. The Uesugi family was once a part of them and one of the three most important families."

"They intimidated almost all the underworld organizations in Japan and unified them by force. Their power is comparable to that of the former emperor. Therefore, their leader is known as the Shadow Emperor." The co-pilot Su Enxi took over the topic.

She added, "But none of this matters. After all, the Snake Eight Clan are gone now. The former head of the Uesugi Clan, Uesugi Kotsu, ended the underworld war, quelled the rebellion of the other underworld families, accepted their legacies, unified the Japanese underworld again, and became the Shadow Emperor again, ruling Japan."

Lu Mingfei had a blank expression on his face, and his look was extremely serious, just like Renata, who had a cold face... God knows how much effort he put in to hold back his laughter.

It is true that gang fights are violent and bloody, and may even sweep across Japan. They are very serious matters no matter how you look at them, and should not be laughed at in any way.

But, once he mentioned the words "king", "emperor", "rebellion" and so on, he couldn't help but want to laugh. He had never imagined such a thing when he was in the most serious stage of his chuunibyou.

"There's nothing I can do. That's what our informant in Japan reported." Su Enxi was also a little helpless. She could fully understand Lu Mingfei's feelings. After all, when she saw it for the first time, she laughed much more wantonly than this.

She glanced at Shude Mai, who seemed to be driving seriously and did not seem to intend to join their conversation.

The latter noticed her gaze and glared at her unhappily: "Why are you looking at me? Their chuunibho is their business."

Su Enxi shrugged with a malicious smile on her face: "To be honest, I really want to see what you look like when you become a middle school student."

I like it too... Lu Mingfei silently raised his hand in his heart, then suddenly remembered that this OL sister might be more troublesome when she is a middle school student than when she is drunk, so he shook his head and gave up.

Ignoring the two fighting superheroes, Renata's face remained expressionless.

She said calmly, "According to the informant's report, the experience of this head of the Kamishima family is very interesting. He previously served as the Shadow Emperor, but for some reason he gave it up and started a ramen stand to sell ramen instead."

"Ramen?" Lu Mingfei was a little surprised. It really felt like I was going to open a store after something was completed. Returning to the ordinary after achieving success was much more powerful than shouting "I am the only one in the world" like a middle school student.

Renata nodded. "Well, he later became the president of Japan's largest instant ramen manufacturer. His products are sold overseas and are widely praised."

"This is not easy..." Lu Mingfei was immediately in awe. From a big shot to a small shot, and then from a small shot to a big shot again, this is not something that can be summed up in two words: hard work.

"It's really not easy. He also knows that it's hard to build a ramen empire with just a ramen stall." Renata nodded, "So after he accepted the inheritance of the other eight Snake families, he bought the former No. 1 instant ramen company, and he naturally became the current No. 1."

"..." Lu Mingfei had a blank expression on his face as he counted the assets and then invested in the purchase. There were many twists and turns during this process. It was really not easy.

"In short, we suspect that the white shadow you saw is related to the Uesugi family, or the Japanese underworld." Renata expressed their opinion.

Lu Mingfei paused and said that if there was anything related, it was that he spotted the white figure when Uesugi Eri transferred to the school. But it would be too far-fetched to think that there was a connection between the two just because the time coincided.

The old Rolls-Royce stopped at the bottom of the old residential area, and Jiude Mai, who was acting as the driver, finally had his hands free. It wasn't long before Su Enxi started to howl in frustration.

"In fact, there is another clue at the moment, which is the source... the case that Uesugi Nan Liusheng applied to cooperate with the Huaxia branch to investigate." Su Enxi, who was suppressed by Jiude Mai with one hand, said, "However, we suspect that it was a smokescreen that was deliberately released. We are currently investigating it. We will tell you when we have news."

"Anyway, we need your help with something right now." Su Enxi said, looking at Lu Mingfei silently.

Renata didn't say anything else, and looked at Lu Mingfei in the same way. Jiude Mai was also like that... although it looked a little strange that she was suppressing Su Enxi with one hand.

Being stared at by three superwomen, Lu Mingfei's heart suddenly skipped a beat: "W-what's the matter?"

The three super sisters next door seemed to treat him as no outsider. They usually didn't close the door, and they liked to come over whenever they had nothing to do. They would sit anywhere for the whole afternoon, even if they didn't do anything. This was especially true after Patsy came.

Lu Mingfei would naturally not refuse their request for help. After all, apart from Chu Tianjiao and the principal, they probably also contributed a lot to his survival.

But if there is some ill intention hidden in their eyes, that is another matter.

Renata said calmly: "The Uesugi family has a deep secret. We want you to get close to the girls of the Uesugi family and find out their secrets."

She still had that expressionless face and that indifferent tone.

Lu Mingfei raised his hand slightly and asked, "Excuse me, what is considered close? Does being a deskmate count?"

"Wait until she voluntarily tells you those secrets, or until those secrets are within your reach." Renata replied indifferently.

Su Enxi didn't know where she got the strength from, and she broke free from Jiude Mai's suppression. She clapped her hands, and said excitedly: "We have given this plan a name, called Tokyo Love Story ver.2.0!"

"Wait a minute, this is Sunan, what does it have to do with Tokyo? Also, what kind of love story is this, asking about other people's secrets!" Lu Mingfei stopped her, "Don't smear my favorite Japanese drama!" Su Enxi looked at him deeply: "Don't worry about it, I just want to call you that. By the way, we have specially arranged a code name for you, come on, little Sakura!"

"Hey, don't think I don't know, this is the name of a gigolo!" Lu Mingfei was furious and scratched her ticklish spot.

Su Enxi, who was defeated again, was carried away by Jiude Mai groaning. When Lu Mingfei turned around, he saw Renata still following him.

She didn't go back to the room with Jude Mai and the others.

When sitting, the cold aura emanating from Renata, like that of the queen of the snowfield, almost suffocated people, and they subconsciously ignored her childish face that seemed to be frozen in time, and her petite body that also seemed to be frozen in time.

Then she stood up, her height so high that one had to lower their heads to see her face. Only then did people suddenly realize that the suffocating feeling just now was actually caused by such a petite girl.

Lu Mingfei asked: "Is there anything else?"

Although Renata has been visiting more frequently recently, she was delayed outside for a while just now and it is getting late now.

"I have something to tell you." Renata replied, passing under Lu Mingfei's armpit and entering the door.

This really doesn't consider me an outsider... Lu Mingfei muttered to himself and walked in. After pouring a glass of water for Renata who was sitting upright on the sofa, Lu Mingfei sat opposite her, looking at her quietly, waiting for her to speak.

"What happened just now was not a spur-of-the-moment decision." Renata said softly, "The Uesugi family is different from other mixed-blood families. They have hidden power that can bring down the other eight Snake families. We cannot afford to be careless."

“Well…” Lu Mingfei nodded his head, “I can only say that I will try my best.”

Uesugi Eri's kindness to him was inexplicable, but Lu Mingfei didn't think he was casual enough to use this kindness to inquire about her family's secrets. Although strictly speaking, this was not a bad thing, and the Uesugi family, as a heinous gang leader, was obviously not a charity.

However, once the third lady in the shirt looked at him with that inexplicable look, he would inexplicably compromise. There was no reason, it could be said to be the mutual attraction between otaku friends, but it was a bit strange.

"Don't force yourself if you don't want to. We don't lack this source of intelligence." Renata said lightly, making Lu Mingfei even more confused.

...If you want to say you don’t need it, just say it. Lu Mingfei took a sip of the water and eased the inexplicable embarrassment: "That’s all you came to me for."

"One more thing." Renata glanced at him, then patted the empty seat next to her, motioning for him to sit over.

This was another act of not treating himself as an outsider. Although Lu Mingfei looked a little strange, he still did as he was told.

After sitting down, smelling the faint fragrance of the girl next to him, Lu Mingfei tilted his head and asked: "What's next..."

There was no next. Renata's blue pupils, which looked like the eternal frozen soil of Siberia, disappeared, and were replaced by gorgeous golden eyes. At the bottom of her golden pupils, there seemed to be a mandala flower slowly rotating, as beautiful as a kaleidoscope.

Lu Mingfei felt something was imposed on his mind, and he also felt something similar on the Ferris wheel. He suddenly remembered that when the fireworks exploded beside the Ferris wheel, there seemed to be a slowly rotating mandala flower on the window next to it.

Lu Mingfei could not sense any ill intention from Renata, so he simply let down his mental guard and fell into her dream.

What meets the eye is all white. The sky is white, the ground is white, the buildings behind are white, and even the wind blowing past is white.

Lu Mingfei turned his head to look, and saw Renata standing quietly beside her, but her appearance had changed a lot. The white cotton skirt made her look more girlish, and the teddy bear she was holding made her look childish, which didn't match her at all.

"I was a girl once, so it's not surprising that I like these things." Renata said silently, interrupting Lu Mingfei's impolite gaze.

Lu Mingfei looked at the snowfield in front of him that seemed to have no end, and the huge facility behind him that was the same color as the snowfield and was well hidden.

He looked at Renata: "Where is this?"

"It was just a dream." Renata said calmly, "Before you said you encountered an unknown attack on the Ferris wheel, and that's when I thought of this."

The Word Spirit Dream Tapir is an extremely rare spiritual attack word spirit that brings people's consciousness into a nightmare that turns from the most undesirable scene. Everything in the dream is extremely real, so real that if the person in the dream dies, the person in reality will also become cold.

Renata said: "Being able to bring two people into a dream without them noticing, the user's ability is more terrifying than I thought, and far superior to mine."

Lu Mingfei listened in silence. He was extremely glad that Chu Yuzhen followed him in his dream. Then his mind raced. A roller coaster that could eat people. Could this be Chu Yuzhen's nightmare?
"It's hard to say whether your final handling method can be replicated, and the other party may also make adjustments accordingly. But if you experience more, maybe you can find other ways to get rid of the dream." Renata stated her purpose.

Her pupils were azure blue and not as cold as before. Her appearance was not as delicate as before, and even had a little baby fat. She felt like a little girl in the same age as her body.

No matter how you look at it, she should just be a girl acting coquettishly in her parents' arms.

The scene that I least want to face... Lu Mingfei silently recalled what Renata had just said. The mysterious research institute in the ice field, no matter how you look at it, does not seem like a place that Renata, who is now too old, can stay.

Renata said calmly, "Are you surprised? This is where I grew up."

"...A little bit. Did the descendants of Romanov grow up in a place like this?" Lu Mingfei asked his question.

"My last name wasn't Romanov from the beginning." Renata glanced at Lu Mingfei, "Renata Yevgeni Chicherin. Yevgeni is my father's name... although I've never met him, and Chicherin is my old surname."
