Chapter 159 People you care about
At the class reunion, Zhao Menghua and Chen Wenwen sat together, and their relationship was confirmed.
Some people looked at them strangely, and the two of them looked at Lu Mingfei again. After all, the fact that Lu Mingfei liked Chen Wenwen was known to the whole school.
But Lu Mingfei looked calm. Isn't she just Chen Wenwen? There were many beauties prettier than her in Kassel College. The privilege of the Freedom Day Champion in his hand had not expired yet. He only needed to open his mouth and the super beauty would be his girlfriend for a month.
Just Chen Wenwen, apart from meeting the young and ignorant me at an earlier time, what else do you have? Who are you?
Some people would worship their first love as a god, but Lu Mingfei obviously wouldn’t. Since he can’t get it, he’ll just let it go.
After the class reunion, Lu Mingfei waved his hand and said that he would treat everyone tonight. Then he took out a black card for the waiter, on the back of which were printed the dual logos of "CitiBank" and "AExpress".
This is the American Express Centurion Black Card, which is said to have no overdraft limit. After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Mingfei still feels that it is more prestigious to swipe this card.
After all, there is no shortage of rich people in Shilan Middle School, and they should be able to recognize this famous black card.
This card is not a credit card that every student of Kassel Academy has. Only "S" level students are qualified to have it.
"hiss."
Someone did recognize this famous Centurion Black Gold Card and gasped on the spot, but the embarrassing thing was that the waiter didn't recognize it.
The waitress looked at the silver half-rotten world tree school emblem printed on the front of the black card and said timidly, "We don't accept library cards."
"hiss."
Now it was Lu Mingfei's turn to gasp. He said to the girl with a frown on his face, "This is a credit card. Bring the POS machine over here. I'll teach you how to swipe it."
Then he refused to pay three times in a row. Lu Mingfei was confused. Will the student credit cards issued by the school also be temporarily suspended after the students go on vacation?
Why is Kassel College so shady? I have to spend my money on your school, right?
This reminded Lu Mingfei of elementary school. At school, I didn’t recommend students to eat junk snacks from outside, but those junk snacks were the best-selling items in the school canteen.
He quickly changed to another bank card, which contained his bonus. Fortunately, the payment was successful this time, which made him feel relieved. At least he did not lose all face.
But how come a small gathering costs more than 2 yuan? My goodness, a bottle of red wine costs 9000 yuan. Is it 82 Lafite or Romanee-Conti? I have never seen this brand when Caesar invited me to dinner.
Why didn’t you drink a few more sips just now? I couldn’t even bear to drink such expensive wine when I was outside.
This made Lu Mingfei feel a little distressed. He felt happy when he swiped the card, but he felt annoyed when he got the bill after swiping the card.
Su Xiaoqiang was there too. Seeing Lu Mingfei staring at the bill, he turned his back and smiled secretly.
In fact, as expected, she was the one who paid for the meal. After all, the other classmates were not as rich as her. However, Lu Mingfei stood up and said something like it would be difficult for them to meet again in the future, so he had to treat them to a meal.
Then when Lu Mingfei took out the American Express Centurion Black Gold Card, she was indeed a little surprised. She couldn't even apply for this card, and she just knew about it.
But then the waitress said: We don't accept library cards, which made her unable to hold back and she almost burst out laughing.
But he held back in the end. Just as he was thinking about what to say to warm up the atmosphere, Lu Mingfei took out another bank card to pay.
But now, seeing Lu Mingfei staring at the bill, she couldn't help but laugh secretly.
My old classmate, you should now know what it means to not take on a job if you don't have the skills, right?
After the meeting, Chen Wenwen glanced at Lu Mingfei, who seemed to be alone, at the restaurant entrance.
"Is your school about to start?" Su Xiaoqiang patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder and said to him, "It's not even the New Year yet, and you're going back to school."
"Yes." Lu Mingfei responded, "That's how holidays are arranged abroad. Their New Year is New Year's Day, not our Spring Festival."
"Come in my car and let's chat for a while." Su Xiaoqiang pulled Lu Mingfei towards her car.
Chen Wenwen withdrew her gaze.
When Lu Mingfei, Zhang Baiqing and Chu Zihang took a plane back to Kassel College, Lu Mingfei told them about this incident with great heartache, saying that he would never do such a stupid thing again. Thinking back to when he rushed out to pay, he was like an eye-catching monkey.
Zhang Baiqing patted his shoulder and said with relief: "You can actually think clearly."
This made Lu Mingfei even more nervous. He shook his hand off his shoulder and said with a look of despair: "Our friendship can be overturned at any time."
"In fact, that red wine may not be that good, so don't feel bad that you didn't get to drink a few sips." Zhang Baiqing explained to Lu Mingfei, "Many unscrupulous merchants buy foreign wineries, hype up red wine that originally cost only a few dollars a bottle, and then sell it for hundreds or thousands of dollars. This is the situation in China. If you want to drink red wine, go to the counter. Otherwise, the red wine you drink in hotels and restaurants is likely to be this kind of red wine. After all, this kind of red wine will be sold to hotels and restaurants at a much lower price, and then hotels and restaurants can sell it at the marked price of red wine."
"Boss, please stop talking. I feel like I've lost even more! I spent 9000 yuan to buy a bottle of wine that only cost a few dollars." Lu Mingfei felt even more hopeless and slumped in his seat on the plane.
"Don't be sad. Maybe the cost is more than ten dollars. You can double your profit." Zhang Baiqing said to Lu Mingfei happily.
"Damn profiteer." Lu Mingfei began to feel sorry for his 2 yuan again.
As they chatted, Lu Mingfei said, "I heard from Finkel that our college was bombed?"
Since Finkel was used to fabricating facts and making up false news, when Lu Mingfei heard Finkel talk about this, he just smiled and didn't take it seriously.
How many Chinese people have dreamed of blowing up their schools? But the probability of this happening is extremely small, even for schools abroad.
"How did Finkel know?" Zhang Baiqing was a little surprised.
This matter of Kassel College has not been announced yet, and ordinary students have no idea about the situation.
Although the major mixed-blood forces knew about this, they did not publicize it, so under normal circumstances, ordinary Kassel Academy students who had not yet graduated would have no channels to obtain this news.
Although Finkel is a professional journalist, his status is even worse than that of ordinary students. How did he know this?
Lu Mingfei was stunned when he heard this, "Ah? Did it really explode?"
Zhang Baiqing nodded: "Well, I heard that both dragon kings wanted Constantine's dragon bone cross, but they sneaked into Kassel Academy at the same time, and then they fought each other. One of them is suspected to be the King of Bronze and Fire."
Lu Mingfei asked: "What about Constantine's dragon bone cross?"
This was the Dragon King whom he killed with his own hands, so he had some feelings for him.
"I don't know about that." Zhang Baiqing shook his head. "I only know that Kassel College was indeed bombed, but I don't know whether the Dragon Bone Cross was stolen. Do you think it is possible that there is a Dragon King hiding in Kassel College, waiting for another Dragon King to come and take the Dragon Bone Cross, and then he really waited for it?"
Lu Mingfei thought about it and nodded: "It seems that this is indeed possible." The two of them gossiped about the situation at Kassel College in a low voice using conspiracy theories. Chu Zihang sat next to Zhang Baiqing and did not participate in their conversation.
However, their conversation did remind him of the details of the Wind King.
The Wind King's words and deeds were somewhat frivolous, and the Wind King's elder brother in Norton's memory was indeed like that. Relying on his control over the sky and the wind, the whole dragon was cynical and seemed to be playing around in the world.
Although the Wind King is also a meticulous guy, his original personality will most likely directly affect his disguise in human form. If there is a powerful hybrid in the hybrid world who is more cynical, it is possible that he is the human form of the Wind King.
However, Chu Zihang didn't know much about the situation in the mixed-blood world, and as far as he knew, many of the stronger mixed-bloods in the mixed-blood world had this kind of personality.
Their power allows them to do whatever they want. Secular rules can only restrain secular people but cannot effectively restrain them.
Therefore, if you want to find the King of Wind by this route, it is highly likely that you will not be able to do so.
After returning to Kassel Academy, Uesugi Yue received the news that Kassel Academy had been bombed. After hearing that Constantine's Dragon Bone Cross had been stolen, he brought his children back to Kassel Academy to continue discussing the dragon bloodline.
"My old friend, I'm really happy to see that you're okay." Uesugi Yue hugged Angé and wiped his tears hypocritically.
"When I heard that Kassel Academy was attacked by the Dragon King, my heart was in my throat."
The movie king felt a little embarrassed for running away so quickly before, so he played the emotional card with Ange.
"I was in Europe at the time." Angers tried to push his old friend away with disgust, but failed.
I could only continue helplessly: "The Kassel College's funding board has caused trouble again this year. The Gattuso family has been trying to get rid of me and replace me with one of their own, so they are using the funding issue to make things difficult for me."
"What do the school board know about slaying dragons? They are just a bunch of businessmen." Uesugi Yue was annoyed when he heard about the old guy, and said disdainfully: "We, the Eight Snake Families, will definitely support you, our old friend, forever."
Angers adjusted his glasses and said, "That's easy. All I need is for the eight Snake families to support me with 2 million U.S. dollars every year, and I can sit firmly in the position of principal."
Uesugi Yue: "That's easy to say, but my old friend, you have to change your request. We, the eight families of Sheqi, can provide all kinds of assistance other than practical assistance."
"Are you playing political science with me?" Angé became even more disgusted and struggled hard to break free from Uesugi Yue's embrace.
He took a step back with a look of disgust on his face, but what he was thinking about was Uesugi Yue's physical strength. More than 60 years had passed, but his physical strength was still the same as before.
It seems that pure dragon blood is very effective in restoring the body. Even the old man Uesugi Yue has regained his second life. Maybe he can last longer than himself who possesses "Time Zero".
However, not everyone can be an emperor. Uesugi Yue's path is not universal. This road is too narrow. The scarcity of emperors means that only certain people can take this path.
I don’t know if the Nibelungen Project can create an artificial emperor.
Although Constantine’s dragon cross is gone, there is still another dragon. It is more than enough to create a "half-blood king", but it is definitely not enough to create two, so the competition is more intense.
Frost strongly accused Ange. One reason was that he really wanted to take it down, but that was a bit unrealistic. At least he would not have the chance in the next few years. Even if he wanted to slowly shake Ange's prestige, it would take several years.
Another reason is to suppress Anjou's weight in this matter. We cannot let Anjou rely on his prestige to have the final say in this matter, which will end up being a situation where Anjou can point anyone to accept the planned transformation.
They are all old foxes and they play with dirty tricks.
While Angé was dealing with the enthusiastic Uesugi Yue, Zhang Baiqing and the others also rushed to the station and successfully got into the carriage before departure.
Neither group was quite aware that the other group was also on the train, after all, they were in separate carriages.
After the train arrived at the station, they got off the train together and only then did they see each other.
Zhang Baiqing greeted Ange first: "Principal Ange, are you okay? I was shocked to hear that Kassel College was attacked by the Dragon King. I was afraid that you would die in the battle to slay the dragon, and then the control of Kassel College would fall into the hands of the treacherous."
Ange said slowly: "It should be my honor to die in the battle of slaying a dragon, rather than leaving behind a soulless body, living in this world."
This was probably about the story of the Summer Mourning incident, but Zhang Baiqing didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, he went to Uesugi Yue and said hello: "Master Yue is back to teach the Dragon Clan History class again? I don't think he will suddenly leave again this time? Otherwise, it will be very troublesome for the academy to adjust the class."
Uesugi Yue suspected that this boy was plotting against him, but he had no evidence.
"You are here too."
Zhang Baiqing greeted Genji and Erie who were next to Uesugi Yue.
"Hello again, Mr. Zhang."
Yuan Zhinu might be used to being around that old bastard Herzog, and has seen a lot of unexpected things, so she dares to think and guess about everything.
He suddenly recalled that Zhang Baiqing had gone to Japan before Kassel Academy was bombed. Two days after he left Japan, the dragon-slaying Kassel Academy was destroyed due to a fight between two dragon kings.
Maybe Zhang Boqing = Dragon King?
However, there is obviously no evidence or basis for the groundless association, and there is no basis to prove that Zhang Baiqing has anything to do with this matter.
According to this unwarranted association, Angers's going to Europe is also suspicious, for example, to clear himself of the suspicion of being the Dragon King. This also explains his efforts to slay dragons over the years. Because he is the Dragon King, he works hard to slay dragons in order to better clear his identity...
To normal people, these thoughts are a manifestation of complete mental illness, and Genjiro actually had a split personality disorder...
He just thought about this crazy and groundless association and didn't dare to say a word.
"Uh-huh."
Eri smiled and nodded.
After Zhang Baiqing left Japan, she went fishing again and found it boring, even though she caught a grouper weighing 100 kilograms.
But there was no one around her that she cared about, so she suddenly lost a lot of fun and stopped fishing after fishing twice.
