Chapter 96: Burial of God
Lu Mingfei: "Boss, I think I passed the admission interview?"

Zhang Baiqing: "It's good as long as it passes."

Lu Mingfei: "I just found out that my parents also graduated from Kassel College. They wrote a letter to the principal to introduce me to the school."

Zhang Baiqing: “Oh?”

Lu Mingfei: "I haven't seen them for a long time. Do you think they really love me? I feel so confused about this world. I can't tell what is real and what is fake."

During Guderian's meeting with his family, Lu Mingfei saw photos of his parents and a letter they wrote to Principal Angers, in which they expressed their love for him.

He had read many stories about hiding one's identity in books, so he could understand them. However, as a person involved, he had more thoughts.

He read a lot of books on philosophy this year. Maybe his brain was not working very well and he could not understand much. He just understood one thing: the most important things are different in the eyes of different people.

He didn't know his parents' current situation, and couldn't tell whether they had no choice but to not see him for so many years.

But why wasn't there even a letter? If I could write to Principal Angers, why couldn't I write to him?
The more he thought about him, the lonelier he felt, as if there was nothing in this world worth his lingering.

Zhang Baiqing: "Love is a word written by a person. You can't see it directly. You can only feel it through your own expression."

Lu Mingfei: "Then I'm done, I can't feel it. Boss, sometimes I feel like a weed, basking in the sun every day, absorbing some nutrients from the ground, and living another day."

Zhang Baiqing: "The card I opened in Gongguan will be charged a fixed fee every year if it is not cancelled. I am in the United States and I don't have time to go there. After you are admitted to Kassel College, you don't have to go to class. If you have time, take a bus and relax. The girls there are very good at soothing people."

Lu Mingfei: "..."

Lu Mingfei: "Boss, I don't think that's the problem."

Zhang Baiqing: "You don't need to think too much about the meaning of life. How old are you? I know your family situation. Your parents haven't been around for many years since your childhood, but at least you still had a childhood. I grew up in an orphanage and I didn't speak. I didn't live a good life either, eating and drinking well every day."

Lu Mingfei: “It seems so.”

Zhang Baiqing: "You are too easy-going. If I were to give you targeted guidance, I would throw you into a war-torn area. The children there have lost their parents in the war, and they have to face the dilemma of surviving alone when they are only a few years old."

Lu Mingfei: "Well, I think my life is pretty good."

At what age do you have to face the prospect of living alone? How is that different from death?
Zhang Baiqing: "I have to go to class. Let's talk next time."

Lu Mingfei: “Yeah.”

Lu Mingfei turned off the computer and lay down on the bed, but he just couldn't fall asleep.

"My dear brother, do you need psychological counseling? It's free!"

Lu Mingze, a psychologist wearing a white coat, appeared.

Lu Mingfei didn't look directly at the little devil who wanted to kill someone. He asked him without looking away: "What do you think is the meaning of life?"

"Brother, your question is too profound. Do you know when people began to think about philosophy?"

“Hmm.” Lu Mingfei began to think: “It seems that both China and the West had this in ancient times, right?”

Lu Mingze snapped his fingers and said, "Let me tell you, it started after the people who were not working anymore appeared. Before they were working anymore, they had no food to eat and had to run around all day just to make a living. How could they have the mood to think about things that can't solve actual production problems?"

"Are you saying that philosophy is something people only think about when they have nothing better to do?"

"You only think about these questions when you have nothing better to do. The earth is like a grain of sand in the universe, and humans are even smaller than dust in the universe. Instead of thinking about the meaning of life, you might as well ask yourself what you want to do."

Lu Mingfei looked confused: "The problem is that I don't know what I want to do."

Lu Mingze coughed twice: "Has Chen Wenwen fallen in love with you? Has your business empire been realized? Have you ever felt the power of the world when you are awake, or the lap of a beautiful woman when you are drunk? You dare to think about this question when you haven't even caught the woman you like. It's better to wait until you have realized all your dreams, and then slowly think about why people live."

“I have no motivation and feel like these are nothing.” Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed.

"Brother, did you just finish it?"

"What the hell?"

"Ah, it's nothing. That's because you haven't felt it before. Go to sleep first. It's late at night now. You may feel much better when you wake up tomorrow."

When Lu Mingfei woke up the next day, he felt much better. Even if his parents didn't love him, so what? He didn't live well? What was the point of thinking about these things? His business empire hadn't been realized yet! If he didn't implement it, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

Zhang Baiqing didn't pay much attention to Lu Mingfei's situation. He didn't know how to counsel him in this situation, but he thought Lu Mingze should try to counsel him.

The final exams at Kassel College will proceed as scheduled, and they will have a short vacation after the exams.

Zhang Baiqing and Chu Zihang returned to China together after the holiday, and he also started writing reports every day.

"I have nothing to do today, so I'll give my feet a massage."

After submitting this report and passing Norma's review, he was severely criticized by his supervisor, Professor Guderian, and asked to rewrite it.

Zhang Baiqing could only distort the facts and write a report according to the format and resubmit it.

Chu Zihang gave him a thumbs up. He dared to write and submit such a report. He was worthy of being an S-level person. He was much better than Caesar.

Zhang Baiqing complained: "What kind of report is this? Isn't this just looking for trouble? The students' holiday, which should have been a happy one, was ruined by these reports. I want to appeal to the principal!"

"Kassel College is a dragon-slaying college, not a normal university, so it's not that easy. It's understandable to have such a request."

Chu Zihang didn't think there was anything unusual about writing daily reports.

“But I have to write every day. Is this still a vacation?” Zhang Baiqing sighed.

Chu Zihang said: "Writing a report is not difficult."

The leisurely holiday days had only lasted a few days, and Zhang Baiqing was thinking about going to the capital to visit Eri to see how she was doing, but Japan's upcoming dragon-slaying plan ruined his trip.

He was not called into the underwater team, but Chu Zihang was called over.

"That's not right. Where is the executive officer of the academy? Why do we need you, Zihang, to come over?"

"No details, just said they have other missions."

"Can it be rejected?" Zhang Baiqing asked. Although he knew that the gods in Japan were just a bloodline left by the White King, it was very risky to dive into the abyss of several thousand meters.

Chu Zihang shook his head and started packing up, saying, "It seems impossible. It shouldn't be that risky. Caesar is also in the team. If the risk is really that high, the Gattuso family will probably be the first to jump up and down."

As the first heir of the Caesar Gattuso family, if the risk of this mission is really that great, then Frost, the acting school director, would probably be the first to step forward and stop the plan.

"That makes sense." Zhang Baiqing nodded. The risk didn't seem that high. It wasn't like they were going to kill a dragon. What was on the bottom of the sea was just an embryo that hadn't hatched yet. Chu Zihang was just going down to drop a bomb, not to die. Then he received a call from Angers.

"Hey, Principal, Zihang is only a freshman, why is he always sent out to carry out missions? Is there no one in the execution department?"

Before Ange could speak, Zhang Baiqing asked the first question.

"Don't worry, this is what happened." Angers said slowly, "Zihang is very good, and the academy intends to train him to be the next generation of gold medal specialists, so they will entrust him with important tasks. I called you because I want you to escort our future gold medal specialists."

“I’m going to Japan again?”

"Yes! Of course you don't have to go into the sea. You just need to check the situation around the sea surface. If any unexpected problems occur, you are the first person in charge of the Kassel Academy headquarters team and can stop the plan immediately."

Zhang Baiqing asked: "Then I don't have to write holiday reports every day, right?"

"No need, you don't need to report for the entire holiday!" Angé waved his hand and exempted him from reporting for the entire holiday.

"Ok."

In Europe, Frost Gattuso is chatting and laughing with major banks, discussing the entire development of new business plans.

Assistant Percy suddenly walked in without asking, leaned over and whispered in his ear.

"What!" Frost was shocked and angry after hearing this, which surprised the people who were negotiating with him. Frost didn't seem like the kind of person who would reveal his emotions to the outside world like this.

They secretly wondered in their hearts: Did something big happen to the Gattuso family?
Frost slammed the table and stood up and left, not even bothering to explain to the bankers.

"Sorry, something happened. I have to excuse myself from your visit. Please do as you please." Percy explained to them, then bowed and followed Frost.

"How could Ange let Caesar carry out such a dangerous mission!" Frost was furious at his assistant Percy in a completely soundproof room. "I need Cassel College to terminate this plan immediately!"

"Anger, as the principal, has the right to send students to carry out the mission, and we have no right to interfere. As for the power to stop the mission, as the acting school director, you have the right to attend, but you do not have the power to stop the mission."

"Where is the Japanese branch? Let them stop carrying out this mission. They can gain the goodwill of the Gattuso family!"

"The Japanese branch may not listen. They have always been semi-independent."

"Where's Pompey! Contact the head of the family immediately! He is Caesar's biological father and has the power to stop the mission."

"The head of the Pompeii family...cannot be contacted. He went to the Tibetan province of Huaguo to participate in a Lamaist temple practice. He did not bring a satellite phone. If we want to contact him now, we can only send someone to the temple on horseback, but this will take at least a week."

"He will do penance?" Frost felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. He suspected that he had heard wrongly. How could a playboy like Pompeii endure such penance? When he went out to travel, he wanted to bring a mattress and sleep all over the world!
"I think I heard about dual cultivation and joyful Zen in a lecture..."

Frost was in a panic in Europe, while Caesar was in high spirits as he stepped on the land of Tokyo.

He took the family's private plane directly to Tokyo, but due to the long distance, he was not much faster than Chu Zihang and Zhang Baiqing who had honestly booked tickets and waited for flights.

After picking him up, Yuan Zhisheng did not go back immediately, but continued to wait for their plane to land.

“You’re here.”

After waiting for more than an hour, Caesar saw the two people and greeted them in a dignified manner.

Chu Zihang nodded and didn't say much.

Zhang Baiqing nodded to him, and then said to Yuan Zhisheng: "We are here to carry out the mission on behalf of the Kassel Academy headquarters. Hurry up and show us your characteristics."

"Are you familiar with him?"

Caesar's eyes looked a little strange. The Japanese distribution has always been arrogant because of its independence, and the commissioners sent by Kassel Academy have suffered some hardships.

He was also hoping that the Japanese branch would give them some respect, and then he would fight back fiercely to show the style of the Kassel College headquarters.

"We're just so familiar, I guess. We haven't seen each other for a long time." Zhang Baiqing put his arm around Yuan Zhisheng's shoulder and got into the car. He sat in the passenger seat and asked him, "Have you found your brother? How's he doing?"

Yuan Zhisheng said: "Herzog showed up and met my father. We ambushed him and fought a big battle, but it was in vain. Zhinu did not show up. Is Eri doing well in China? Is she safe?"

"Don't you brothers and sisters have any contact among yourselves?"

"Yes, but I just heard her say it. It's not as real as seeing it with my own eyes."

"I don't know about that. I was dragged to Japan right after the academy had its holiday. I haven't had the chance to see her yet. But she's safe."

She lives under the noses of two Dragon Kings. As long as there is no problem with these two Dragon Kings, Eri will be very safe.

"Yeah." Yuan Zhisheng nodded.

"What's the plan this time?"

"Just drive the submersible to deliver the bomb to the dragon king embryo, and then come up again."

“It sounds easy.”

"Maybe easy?"

Genjitsu also hoped that this mission could be completed easily, so that the gods that had troubled the eight families of Sheqi for generations would die completely.

Chu Zihang just listened to them quietly, but Caesar didn't understand what they were saying, and asked anxiously: "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

"It's about some things about the mission. I know you are anxious, but don't worry. I will tell you slowly later. First of all, I am the person in charge of this mission. The action team includes you, Chu Zihang and the new head of the Eight Clans of Sheqi, Changyuan Zhisheng, to carry out the diving mission together."

In fact, Yuan Zhisheng wanted to join the action team and personally go into the submersible to go into the sea, but the Sheqi Eight Clans refused.

They had made some tampering on the Trieste. If a crisis really occurred, their new patriarch might be gone.

But after Angers had a personal conversation with Gen Chisheng, Gen Chisheng agreed to join the task force.

He did not tell the heads of the families what the principal had talked to him about specifically, but he only said that if he went to carry out the mission, the success of the mission could be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

Finally, the heads of the families bowed to him.

"Does your father know that you are going down to carry out the mission?" Zhang Baiqing asked Yuan Zhisheng.

"I don't know. He always thought that it was the specialist from your Kassel College who came to carry out this task." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head.

　I owe you 2,000 words today. I will start writing tomorrow so that I can finish the book early and start the next one. This book is really not satisfactory...
