"Lu Jun, let's talk?" Yuan Zhisheng came up to him from a distance, his clothes swinging, revealing the messy ukiyo-e inside.
Chapter 231: Invitation from Brother-in-law
Tokyo rarely has such good weather today. The clouds and fog have dispersed, and the sun is like golden silk covering the sky and the earth. There is a long cherry wood table on the terrace in the corner of Genji Heavy Industries. The long table is covered with linen tablecloth. Lu Mingfei and Nono accepted Genji's invitation to sit around the long table, and Sakura was also here.
"The war is not over yet. The behavior of the fierce ghosts has touched our bottom line. All gangs loyal to them throughout Japan will be attacked, so the old people have taken action." Yuan Zhisheng sat on his knees and said When he said this, his face was expressionless and his eyes did not waver. The sunlight like broken gold shone on the side of his face, and his plain white face was as hard as lapis lazuli.
The strategic department near Xingshen Temple is empty. Those old men who are comparable to the Japanese underworld Dinghai Shenzhen are not at Genji Heavy Industries today.
Sakura brought drinks for several people. Yuan Zhisheng and Lu Mingfei drank sake with ice cubes. There was sweet tea in front of Nono, and there were also some colorful glutinous rice snacks. Lu Mingfei pinched a I tasted it and it tasted okay, but it tasted like something stuck between my teeth.
Nono seemed to have no interest in this sudden meeting. He lowered his head and played with his mobile phone. Lu Mingfei and Yuan Zhisheng both looked at the endless Tokyo city that stretched straight to the sky.
There are few super high-rise buildings in Shinjuku that can compete with Genji Heavy Industries, and Xingshenji Temple is almost on the top floor. The ancient daimyo believed that they could better rule their territories from high places, so the family heads were more willing to control their families. The Xingshen Temple terrace, which has sacred significance, is placed at the highest point.
From here, the view is unobstructed no matter which direction you look. The whistles of freighters in Tokyo Bay are roaring, like giant beasts rising from the sea level, and the dark green water sparkles in the sunlight. The gray-white buildings in the city are like virgin forests made of reinforced concrete. Every building is swaying in the howling wind, like waves slowly rising and falling, and all the valleys are appearing before your eyes.
Xingshen Temple is not usually used as a place to receive distinguished guests, even though it is a pleasant place to look at. However, now the Sheqihachi family is in troubled times, and the family heads are too lazy to pay attention to these red tapes. What's more, Masamune Tachibana has not returned from Chicago yet. Minamoto is the number one figure in the family, even if the head of the Fuma family is Wakatou. Teru Ming didn't have much say in front of him. If he wants to invite Lu Mingfei here, then let him. Anyway, neither of these two people can be offended by the family heads.
The wind ruffled Lu Mingfei's forehead hair, and he sipped the sake without answering.
Not long ago, the college sent an ultimatum to the Sheqiba family. The content of the ultimatum is not confidential. Members of Chu Zihang's group and Chen Motong's group can view it at will through their own school permissions. It is full of information from the school board of directors. The rebuke and the anger of the college, in addition to the request to the family heads to "completely wipe out the fierce ghosts within a month" and "the college will reset its office in Tokyo", were so harsh that it is difficult not to think of Ka Sayre College used to have a fierce style when it was still a secret party.
For the Snake Qiba family, they may have accumulated a huge amount of power now, but they are far from being able to compete with the academy. Such an ultimatum is undoubtedly Ange's way of conveying to them, "If you don't do it, I will carry the desert sword." Messages like "The eagle will blow your dog's head off".
The ancients said that Lian Po could still eat when he was old, but in the eyes of these Japanese people, Ange was old when he was old. But judging from the lively appearance of the principal, he should have no problem making three bowls at a meal.
Of course, the facts were quite different from what several family heads had guessed. The ultimatum was issued directly by the principal and was approved by the entire school board. The elders also participated in the decision-making. Nowadays, the two most powerful, oldest and most powerful groups in mixed-race society have taken a stand that is unfavorable to the Snake Qihachi family. The war is about to begin. If Masamune Tachibana hadn't bowed his head in time, the executive department might have Elite has passed Japanese customs.
But the real crisis is also looming.
The Abrahamic blood contract is extremely sacred to Kassel College and even the entire mixed race society. Its significance is no less than that of the Code of Hammurabi to the slave owners of the ancient Babylonian Empire. Before modern times, this law was iron-blooded and bloody. Anyone who violated any rule would be hunted. Raising Deadpool would risk the whole family being liquidated.
Even in modern times, the idea of human rights has spread from ordinary society to mixed-race society, and the death penalty has been largely deleted from the Abrahamic blood contract. Raising a deadpool is still a felony that can be executed on the spot. Even if the sentence is light, you will still face being imprisoned in a black jail. of life imprisonment.
The Fierce Ghosts raise a large number of dead servants. Such crimes are enough for Kassel College to include this organization on the hunting list. Under Norma's powerful computing power, the Snake Qiba Family, which is almost the same as the Fierce Ghosts, also You can't live alone.
Just when Tachibana Masamune sacrificed major political interests for his family in exchange for forgiveness from the academy, the elites of the executive department around the world have gathered in branches around the world to be on standby 24 hours a day, and even those who are above the executive department commissioners are beheaded. They will also be harvested at the beginning of the war.
Yuan Zhisheng knew about the beheaders. They were all the elites among the elites. Few people in the Snake Qiba family could compete with those people.
Only when people grasp power can they be calm. Strength, wealth, and even other people's handles are all a kind of power. Now that Lu Mingfei has the power, he also holds the weakness of the Sheqi family. He is confident that before the situation becomes clear, Herzog would not start a fight between himself and Minamoto.
As the Amaterasu of the family, Minamoto Chisheng, the strongest demon slayer, did not go to participate in the war against the fierce demons but instead went to find Lu Mingfei. This is very unusual. The most likely reason is that he has some request or agenda. .
Lu Mingfei had read game theory and learned some diplomatic knowledge. At this time, he had to talk less and read more. Anyone who asked for help was at a natural disadvantage.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, but Miss Chen is still so..." Yuan Zhisheng thought for a while and found a suitable word, "Excellent grace."
"My authority in the academy is only A-level. You must also know that I don't have a word spirit, and my combat effectiveness on the frontal battlefield may not be as good as A-level. So if you have anything to do, don't come to me, go to him." Nono chewed bubble gum and looked at her coldly. He glanced at Yuan Zhisheng, then patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder with a nonchalant look on his face.
Lu Mingfei laughed dryly, feeling that the atmosphere he had worked so hard to create was so easily broken.
"The college obviously doesn't trust Mr. Masamune, nor the family." Yuan Zhisheng cleared his throat and looked at Lu Mingfei,
"I think the school board is doubting the relationship between us and the fierce ghosts, right?" There was not much confusion in his eyes, but he kept staring straight into Lu Mingfei's eyes.
Lu Mingfei shrugged, "Under the premise of violating the Abraham blood contract, the college does not trust anyone. If I am the one who raises Deadpool, then even the principal will be implicated. Do you know why?"
"Why?" Yuan Zhisheng frowned.
"Because some people in the college say that I am the illegitimate son of the principal." Lu Mingfei did not feel ashamed to talk about it. On the contrary, he found it quite interesting. "Although my appearance has nothing to do with the Aryan race, but Even if there is such a groundless contact, the school board will immediately remove the principal from his position and launch an investigation into him."
"I think I understand what you mean." Yuan Zhisheng took a deep breath, placed his hands on his knees, and straightened his back. At this moment, he looked a bit like an ancient general negotiating with the enemy's general.
If even this unwarranted relationship would be implicated, then how could the Snake Qiba family, which originally came from the same lineage as the Fierce Ghosts, be spared?
No matter how well the family heads think they have done a good job of keeping secrets, there will never be an airtight wall in the world. Although the lower-level members and evil spirits do not know that their bloodline origin is actually the great White King, and they always know that evil spirits They were all born from children with unstable bloodlines in their families.
Power, wealth and freedom can all be used as bargaining chips in exchange. As long as the price is high enough, the academy can always find a breakthrough point.
And it just so happens that what school boards are most in need of is money.
"The family's power is not as large as that of the mixed-races in Europe. We cannot block all customs. In other words, there may be an action team from the college secretly entering the country at this moment, right?"
Yuan Zhisheng said that he looked up at the boundless sky, with fluffy clouds floating on the azure background. It seemed that there was nothing in that direction, and even if he could see infinitely far away, he could only see a starry sky.
But Yuan Zhisheng knew that the academy's eyes were watching them silently.
The Japanese branch is far inferior to Kassel Academy in terms of hardware and software. Kaguya can stop Norma's invasion in a short time but cannot compete with Norma.
Maybe while they were chatting, a heavy sniper rifle capable of penetrating tank armor was aimed at his heart or between his eyebrows behind the glass curtain wall of a nearby building.
Lu Mingfei shrugged.
He was once the academy's eagle dog, and he knows that when Norma is on your side, you are almost invincible, but when the artificial intelligence on your side becomes EVA... then you will be invincible.
"Under the premise that you have the same bloodline as the Fierce Ghosts, all your efforts will pale in comparison unless you produce enough results, such as letting the principal see your determination to eradicate the entire Fierce Ghosts." Lu Mingfei said lightly,
"Why, do you think Tachibana Masamune can't still protect the family's interests when facing the academy?"
Yuan Zhisheng's eyes narrowed, but he didn't get angry, which meant that Lu Mingfei was right.
"I know you want to kill God," he said.
"I also know that you can't trust me, and you are not even willing to use the dive vehicle provided by the family."
Lu Mingfei smiled.
The Japanese are very good at using justice. If I block a knife and die for you, it can be said that it is for justice. If I stab you twice in the back, it can also be said that it is for justice. This thing purely depends on the perspective of the interpreter.
Yuan Zhisheng is a person who pursues his own justice. In Lu Mingfei's view, his justice is the so-called righteousness.
Anyone who believes him will be in serious trouble.
"Yuanjun, you don't know what the Sheqiba family looks like to us." Lu Mingfei shook his head. He looked at the distant skyline, his eyes narrowed, and the sun fell in his pupils. Presenting a brilliant cross.
"After World War II, your rule over Japan has been completely shaken. It was the principal who reunited the eight heads of the family. He reshaped the Sheqihachi family but also controlled the Sheqihachi family. It doesn't matter even if you don't admit it, because We know everything about you."
"There are some things that the family heads won't even tell you, but we know that, for example, the underwater landing platform destroyed by the demons in the Rock Flow Research Institute is actually a nuclear bomb that must be controlled manually. If we are really stupid and casual, If I use that thing to dive under your will, I'm afraid my companions and I will die in the abyss."
Yuan Zhisheng's expression became very ugly. As expected by Lu Mingfei, Amaterasu, who was so powerful that he could even challenge the next generation, did not know about the nuclear bomb.
Fortunately, it’s just a child.
At this time, Yuan Zhisheng was still a headstrong guy. He trusted the spider in his hands more than his family. He rarely hid his emotions, but was more interested in expressing anger and joy.
Because Lu Mingfei came to Tokyo a year early, he had the opportunity to see Yuan Zhisheng who had not yet grown up.
Nuonuo lowered her head, her eyes flickering, apparently thinking that the last time Lu Mingfei and the others took the Diryste, it was also loaded with a nuclear bomb. That nuclear bomb later destroyed Gao Tianyuan but also awakened the corpse guard army. At that time, Lu Mingfei was a dead man, and it was there that he met Eri Yi for the first time.
Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Sakura, who shook her head slightly.
"I will give you an explanation about this matter." Yuan Zhisheng said solemnly. For the Sheqi Eighth Clan, it is definitely a critical moment of survival, but there are still people who are doing small things in private. This makes Amaterasu Fate is extremely angry.
Lu Mingfei smiled. The matter of the nuclear bomb should have been instructed by Herzog, Tachibana Masamune. That cunning sand fox will not leave any loopholes and will not let Yuan Zhisheng find out who is the real one in the Snake Qiba family who wants to subvert everything. people.
"I just want to know, what do you want from me? Is there anything I can do to help you at this time?"
"Lu Jun, you have already met my brother. He is now the Dragon King among the fierce ghosts. He is a ghost with royal blood flowing in his body." Yuan Zhisheng said quietly.
Lu Mingfei frowned, realizing that things might not be that simple.
"Such a target would be very difficult even if Kassel Academy were to confront it. He is good at disguise and has huge wealth and amazing status. As long as he is willing to abandon his identity as the Dragon King and leave Japan, we will never be able to find him." Yuan Zhisheng. Putting the knife box gently on the table, he leaned forward and his eyes became a little eager.
"He has committed a lot of evil. We are God-given enemies. Someone has to kill him. I think that person is me."
"Pfft." Nuonuo laughed, Yuan Zhisheng was stunned for a moment, and Sakura looked at her coldly.
"You can't beat him." Nono shrugged, "Of course a confident man is handsome, but if he is arrogant, he will look stupid."
The direction of the wind changed, but Minamoto patted Sakura's wrist.
He looked at Nono and actually smiled.
"I know, of course I am no match for my brother, so I would like to invite Mr. Lu to kill ghosts with me."
Chapter 232 Sky Tree
The Meteorological Bureau reported that a strong typhoon and heavy rainfall would soon make landfall in Tokyo Bay. The power supply system was already stretched, and a fire in an underground power facility in the afternoon added fuel to the fire.
Even if you look down from outside the atmosphere, you can see the mountains and the sea at any time. The city has a power outage. Of course, it is not a power outage in the whole city, but the civil facilities in the city center have lost power.
Tokyo Electric Power Company has issued an announcement saying that it is repairing the circuit and is expected to restore power supply before twelve o'clock in the evening.
As a result, the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo was also affected by the disaster. Although there were diesel generators that could barely supply the guests in the presidential suite, the waiters could no longer continue to provide services to the VIPs.
In the past, just snap your fingers at the waiter, and the waiter will bring you whatever you want, including mandarin fish from Hokkaido, mackerel from Kagoshima, top-notch Wagyu beef, and lively cod. But today To drink an orange-flavored soda, you actually have to go to the trouble of Boss Lu and climb the stairs to the vending machines on the lower floors to buy coins.
Junior sister and Eriki are playing games in the room. Eriki was originally worried about her health, fearing that it would cause disaster if it deteriorated, but now she is no longer worried, because when Lu Mingfei left Genji Heavy Industries, Genji gave birth to a child. He gave him a box, which contained enough serum for Eriyi to use for half a month.
"I want to eat stinky tofu." Nono wrinkled her nose.
"Then we have to go back to China. All we have here is natto."
"That tastes too bad." Nuonuo made a disgusted expression.
"Actually, it's pretty much the same. They all stink anyway."
"Hmph, I just want to eat stinky tofu." Nono put his hands on his hips, glanced sideways at Lu Mingfei, and hummed, shaking his shoulders slightly.
Boss Lu refused to take the hard way and raised his hands in surrender: "I'll go out and look around tomorrow to see if I can find anything for sale."
He originally came down alone just now, but the senior sister said that after being idle in the room for many days, he was about to grow mushrooms, so why not go out for a walk, so he came down with Lu Mingfei for a walk.
They bought Eriyi's orange-flavored soda, junior sister's tonkotsu ramen, Chu Zihang's chewing gum and a lot of snacks from Kristina at the vending machine. In the end, Lu Mingfei took advantage of the senior sister's carelessness and bought herself new ones. A change of underwear.
The hotel manager gave the waiters a day off tonight. The long corridor was actually quiet, and only their voices could be heard. Lu Mingfei was still thinking about what Yuan Zhisheng said, but the senior sister's steps were light and she seemed to be in a good mood.
Lu Mingfei recalled that Xianggui said that he had a bad premonition when he separated from Yuan Zhisheng. It seemed that this matter was not controlled by more than a sleeping god.
At that time, Yuan Zhisheng was holding an unlit Soft Seven Stars cigarette, frowning and speaking in a very low voice. He said that if he died, Lu Mingfei should not send Eri back to the Snake Eight Clan. Doesn't your Kassel Academy have a Nibelungen Project? I heard that it can change bloodline. Chu Zihang relied on this plan to reverse the process of becoming a Deadpool. Lu Jun, you are an S-level and dragon-slaying hero, so you should get one for Eri when the time comes.
In fact, it was just some feelings. Lu Mingfei felt that sometimes people really have a sixth sense. Yuan Zhisheng might have seen his own ending in a long destiny line, like a dream. Lu Mingfei was inexplicable. It feels like something very important has been entrusted to me.
Eriki shouldn't be a very important person to Minamoto, who would treat such a dangerous weapon as a family member.
He had imagined countless times that he was selling suntan lotion on a nudist beach in France, where there might be crows, Yashas, and Mr. Masamune, and Sakura would always be by his side. Kehui Liyi will not appear in France because Yuan Zhisheng has never left a place for her, either in her heart or around her.
So why would he choose to entrust her to him at this time? Lu Mingfei felt very confused.
But it doesn't matter, this is fine. The situation is undoubtedly becoming more and more tense. The Snake Qibachi family is still very prosperous at the moment, but it is likely to fall apart soon. Minamoto Chisheng cannot protect Eri, and the entire Snake Qibachi family is in danger. Can't do it.
If there is someone really standing behind Herzog, even if that person has decided to replace him with Friedrich, everyone will still want to fight for the key to the White King's treasure house. Eriyi is that key.
