Chapter 39 Welcome to the Nibelungen
After making many twists and turns in the subway, Lu Mingfei finally arrived at Wangfujing Street.
To be honest, Lu Mingfei felt a little uncomfortable riding this section of the subway.
The crowding is secondary. The main problem is that this is the imperial capital subway, and Lu Mingfei does not have very good memories of the imperial capital subway.
According to the original timeline, that stupid dragon is probably hiding somewhere in the imperial subway, eating potato chips and watching a movie.
When in Odin's Nibelung, Lu Mingfei seemed to have seen Xia Mi.
Therefore, when he chose the imperial capital for his graduation trip, he immediately thought of the tragic twins Jörmungandr and Fenrir.
He also thought that since he was reborn in middle school, he might be able to use the information gap to prevent some disasters from happening in advance.
However, after careful consideration, Lu Mingfei made a judgment: now is not a good time.
Take Fenrir for example. Lu Mingfei knew that it was hiding in a corner of the imperial capital subway, but what could he do with Fenrir?
Kill him? But Lu Mingfei lacked support. Not only did he have no teammates, but he also had no weapons. Even the Seven Deadly Sins were still sinking in the Bronze Ancient City of the Three Gorges.
Of course, as long as we make a deal with Lu Mingze, we might be able to kill Fenrir, but is it necessary?
Although Fenrir possesses supreme power, his IQ is only at the level of a three-year-old human child, so he can be said to be quite harmless.
The only time he activated the World-Destroying Words was to avenge his elder sister.
As long as he allows everything to develop along the original timeline at this point in time, then all events will be controllable for Lu Mingfei.
On the contrary, if he entered Nibelung, the king of earth and mountains, in advance and angered Fenrir, who knows if it would lead to other serious consequences.
Of course, there is only one thing that Lu Mingfei will definitely do in advance as long as he has the chance.
That is to kill Herzog and save Eri.
Even at the cost of one's entire life.
……
After all, the old streets are the most like streets, and Wangfujing Street is such a street.
The signs of BJ's time-honored shops and niche luxury brands are intertwined on both sides of the street.
Fashionable young girls wearing knee-length skirts and carrying bags of various styles were walking and laughing on the bustling streets of Wangfujing, passing Lu Mingfei in groups of two or three.
The breeze was like a hand, deliberately lifting the skirts of the girls who hurried by, revealing their white calves and delicate ankles. The sound of the white-soled high-heeled shoes stepping on the bluestone pavement of Wangfujing seemed to still echo in Lu Mingfei's ears.
Liu Miaomiao hurriedly arrived at the meeting place, Wangfujing Cathedral. She was holding a small GUCCI leather bag, leaning slightly against the iron fence at the door, with her long hair falling like a waterfall. Sweat was oozing from her fair forehead, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
Liu Miaomiao wore an oversized sweatshirt today, paired with a pair of denim hot pants. One corner of the sweatshirt was tucked into the waistband, highlighting Liu Miaomiao's slender waistline.
Usually Liu Miaomiao always likes to wear skirts, which makes Lu Mingfei ignore that Liu Miaomiao is actually about 1.6 meters tall, with a pair of long and straight beautiful legs, and a pair of pink sandals on her feet, revealing ten well-behaved and cute delicate toes.
Even Lu Mingfei was a little dazed when he saw it.
Seeing Lu Mingfei coming, Liu Miaomiao smiled faintly on her face.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?"
"No,"
Lu Mingfei wiped the sweat off his face and saw that only Liu Miaomiao was there, so he asked, "Where's Qiao Yiran?"
"I said I had something to wait for you, so I asked her to go back alone." Liu Miaomiao stood up from the railing. "Then let's go? Let's talk while we walk?"
"Okay." Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, then followed Liu Miaomiao, almost shoulder to shoulder.
"The next topic may be a little awkward." Liu Miaomiao smoothed the scattered hair on her temples with her hands, without looking into Lu Mingfei's eyes, "You have to be mentally prepared."
Lu Mingfei shrugged. "How embarrassing can it be?"
It can't be more embarrassing than accidentally entering the women's restroom, right? Lu Mingfei thought.
"It's very embarrassing." said Liu Miaomiao.
"Are you trying to confess your feelings to me?" Lu Mingfei took a step to the side and crossed his arms over his chest.
Liu Miaomiao obviously didn't expect Lu Mingfei to suddenly say this. After a moment of stunned silence, she burst out laughing:
"Lu Mingfei... I don't know how to describe it."
"You already said the topic was awkward. I can't think of a more awkward situation than being rejected after confessing my love."
Actually, it happens, right? For example, confessing your feelings in the women's restroom and getting rejected?
"Well, that's about the same." Liu Miaomiao looked down at her toes and walked slowly, "I do have a crush on someone."
"Let me guess." Lu Mingfei pretended to think, "Chu Zihang from the high school department?"
Liu Miaomiao looked at Lu Mingfei in astonishment, "How did you know?"
"I guessed that many girls in the school should like Senior Brother Chu from the high school department, and I saw you waiting for him at the door of his classroom that day."
It would be strange if I didn't know, right? Lu Mingfei thought to himself, I'm afraid at least one-third of the school knows that you like Chu Zihang.
The reason why it is said to be one third is because Liu Miaomiao’s admirers only account for about one third of all students in the school, including boys and girls.
"You guessed it quite accurately." Liu Miaomiao pouted, as if she was dissatisfied with Lu Mingfei's accurate guessing of her thoughts.
But soon, she sighed again, "But it doesn't matter. I was planning to tell you anyway."
"why?"
Liu Miaomiao rolled her eyes and asked, "If I said I wanted to get close to Senior Brother Chu through you, would you be angry?"
"Of course, we probably won't be friends anymore." Lu Mingfei scared her.
"It's so serious."
"That's for sure."
Liu Miaomiao stuck out her tongue. She realized that Lu Mingfei was trying to scare him on purpose. Because even though he said that, his expression didn't show any anger at all. And Lu Mingfei also knew that Liu Miaomiao took the initiative to tell him that she liked Chu Zihang, not because she wanted to get close to Chu Zihang through him.
Liu Miaomiao is a smart girl.
If she really wanted to use me to get close to Chu Zihang, she could do it quietly.
After entering the high school department, they will have more opportunities to interact with Chu Zihang. She only needs to join in at the right time and she will be able to talk to Chu Zihang naturally. There is no need for her to take the initiative to tell her the secrets in her heart.
Her real purpose was actually to reject Lu Mingfei in a tactful way.
I like Chu Zihang who is in the first year of high school, so if you are interested in me, I am sorry.
Perhaps from the past few days of getting along, Liu Miaomiao read some misunderstanding from Lu Mingfei's behavior.
But she doesn't want to do that, and situations like "Lu Mingfei confesses to her, and then she rejects Lu Mingfei" happen.
Once this happens, it will be the most embarrassing situation.
Although generally after rejecting a confession of love, people will give out the “nice guy card” and say that everyone can continue to be friends, but how many people can really remain friends?
Although they have not known each other for a long time, Liu Miaomiao may cherish this friendship more than Lu Mingfei imagined.
In order to prevent this situation from happening, Liu Miaomiao did not hesitate to "reveal her true feelings" and nip in the bud any signs that Lu Mingfei might confess his feelings.
Liu Miaomiao is a gentle girl.
However, this world is neither correct nor gentle, and the gentler people are, the more likely they are to be hurt.
"Hey." Lu Mingfei sighed and rubbed his hair, "Is that all you want to say?"
Liu Miaomiao was stunned and nodded.
"What a big deal! I thought you were going to steal my eggs."
"Ah?" Liu Miaomiao obviously had not heard this meaningful joke.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I can promise you that what you told me today will not be told to anyone else. And as for the rumors between us——"
Lu Mingfei changed the subject and said, "As you said, we just need to have a clear conscience and don't care what others say."
He just stayed up late last night to finish reading the copy of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber he brought with him, and now he is stuck on Zhang Wuji's lines.
"You're right. We just need to have a clear conscience." Liu Miaomiao nodded firmly.
Just when Lu Mingfei thought Liu Miaomiao had finished speaking, Liu Miaomiao added in a faint, almost inaudible voice, "You are really a very good person."
If Lu Mingfei's current indicators, including hearing, were not superior to those of ordinary people, he might not have heard what Liu Miaomiao said.
Hey, hey, hey, don’t give out nice guys cards like this.
"Okay, well." Lu Mingfei took the initiative to speak, "Do you want to buy anything, or anywhere you want to go shopping?"
"No." Liu Miaomiao turned her head to look at Lu Mingfei and answered.
"Then let's go back now?" Lu Mingfei suggested, "Although it's only around three o'clock now, it should be four or five o'clock when we get back to the hotel. Let's go back and pack our things because we have to take a plane back tomorrow morning."
"Okay, let's go back then?"
Liu Miaomiao turned her head and found the surrounding streets deserted. She wondered where she and Lu Mingfei had gone.
I happened to see a subway station coming towards me, so I pointed at it and said, "We have just arrived at the subway station. Let's take the subway back."
Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay."
The escalator slowly went down, and the fluorescent tubes above my head flickered. I guess the municipal engineering projects in the capital would not be so severe. I wondered if they had not been reported in time.
Perhaps because the area around this subway station was relatively quiet, there was rarely any one in the Imperial Capital subway station at this time.
Liu Miaomiao looked at the completely covered advertisement space on the wall and felt a little eerie. She unconsciously moved a little closer to Lu Mingfei.
As Lu Mingfei looked at the surroundings, an ominous premonition gradually surged in his heart.
"Lu Mingfei, why does this subway station feel weird..." Liu Miaomiao shrank back, a little scared, "How about we go up and take a taxi back to the hotel?"
Lu Mingfei also felt that this subway station was strange and nodded: "Okay, let's go back."
With that, the two turned around and prepared to go back the same way. However, the moment they turned back, they were stunned.
The subway entrance where they came down was gone.
Where the subway entrance was supposed to be, there is now only a bare wall.
The flickering fluorescent lights hit the marble walls, reflecting strange light.
Lu Mingfei just stood there in a daze, while Liu Miaomiao simply screamed, closed her eyes and hid behind Lu Mingfei, grabbed the corner of his clothes, her body trembling slightly.
If he hadn't had his hands on Lu Mingfei's back, he might have collapsed on the ground, unable to stand up.
"Oh, are we seeing a ghost?" Liu Miaomiao recalled the plot of a horror movie she had seen in Japan.
"No, it's not a ghost." Lu Mingfei murmured.
It's definitely not a ghost.
This place... Lu Mingfei had been here before.
This is the Nibelung, the king of earth and mountains.
I would like to recommend a book by a friend in the group. The title of the book is "The Villain Must Die? What Does It Have to Do with Me, the Player?" The plot is slow. Friends who like Western fantasy backgrounds can go and have a look.
