Prologue: The sun on the beach
Montalivi, Montalivi, Vendée, France.
This is one of the most prestigious naturist beaches in the world, visited by hundreds of thousands of people every year. Some people come here because they can enjoy the beauty of nature without restraint, and some people come here because they want to feast their eyes. Of course, there are people who come here because it's also a great beach, but there are so many great beaches in the world that most of them don't need to be so far away.
Every day at Montalivi Beach is pretty much the same, and it's similar to any other beach. Small shops selling drinks and snacks open when the sun rises, later than the more central restaurants, but not so early. Around this time, some young people can be seen stepping out of their hotels or tents and stepping on the soft sand of the beach.
The closer to noon, the more people came, and they chose their favorite spot and began to enjoy the day. Those who lie down and sunbathe are like conch whelks embedded in the sand, while young people chasing and frolicking are like sand crabs on the rampage. In the afternoon, when the crowd was at its highest, there was a commotion among the girls who were about to tan themselves in a wheat-colored color, attracting the attention of the people around them.
Although they all know where this place is, everyone retains basic politeness, and their eyes don't stay on others for too long, but the guests around them can't help but focus on this person. This is an old man, and the traces of time on his face make people believe that he is almost old, but his posture and movements are so confident and powerful, and his is still as angular as a young man.
He wore a simple checked shirt and beige beach pants, and a pair of equally simple sunglasses that covered his eyes, making one wonder how sharp the eyes would be. The reason why people look at him is certainly not because he is wearing clothes, Montalivi Beach, although it is a naturist beach, is not forced, and you can still choose to wear clothes. It's just that this old man is too different, it stands to reason that the old guy at this age is either shaking when he walks or has a fat belly, but the old man can be called "radiant". His strong pectorals and trapezius muscles held the shirt straight and slender, and his well-trimmed beard glowed as warm as an opal in the sun. When you see him, it's like seeing an oak tree that has been flourishing for a hundred years. With the vicissitudes of time, there is still the power of life.
What's even more surprising is that this old man is actually applying sunscreen to the sunbathing girls! His smile is gentle and decent, and his movements are polite. What girl could say no to such a coquettish old fellow? It's like no one can say no to Beethoven's march.
The bottle of sunscreen was a lot less than the average one, and it seemed to be a trial size, and it didn't take long to run out. After applying sunscreen, the old man put the empty bottle in his pocket and turned to leave Montalivi Beach. It wasn't until the old man disappeared into the layers of parasols that the girls reluctantly looked away and continued their previous conversation and laughter.
Approaching the exit, the old man saw a figure leaning against the exit pillar, it was a young man. The young man apparently saw the old man as well, and he waved to the old man as a greeting, turned and walked to the parking lot on the side, and started the car.
"So fast?" The old man sat in the passenger seat and took off his sunglasses.
"It's not as popular as you, so it's naturally a lot faster." The young man steered the car along the road, and as he passed through the toll booth, he casually threw an equally empty glass bottle of sunscreen into the garbage bin. "Teacher Ange is really charming, and there are so many little girls who like it when she is old."
"Are you making fun of me?" Ange leaned against the open window, the sea breeze raising his forehead high. His pupils reflected the trees that flashed by the highway from time to time, like a movie from the past.
"I'm serious." Li Su smiled. "It's obviously fulfilling the student's wishes, why doesn't the teacher seem so happy?"
"It's not about being unhappy, it's just thinking about things."
The reason why he appeared here on this hot August was only because of a text message from Li Su.
He was still reviewing a request for a transfer from the school, when his phone rang on his oak desk. When I opened it, it was a text message. There was no text in the text message, just a photo of sunscreen. It was a sunscreen he was familiar with, and he had received something similar from the one called Raven from the Snake Eight family a few months ago. Originally, I was also going to fulfill the student's last wish, but unfortunately I was not available, and now is the right time. So, as always, he hopped on his Gulf Stream and flew straight to Charles de Gaulle Airport. When he got off the plane, Li Su was already waiting for him there, and it should have been Norma who informed him of the time.
"Where's your girlfriend? Can't you come out and play together? He promised to meet a friend with Li Su in the afternoon, so he couldn't go to the tavern he frequented for a glass of mint liqueur, and it was boring to sit idle in the car, so he was looking for topics to chat with Li Su while he was free.
"Don't let her know about this kind of thing, and if she knows, she won't change it, it's just to add to herself."
"Oh." Ange's thoughts had drifted to the mysterious friend he was about to meet next. According to Norma's records, Li Su has not been in contact with anyone so far, that is to say, he met in a place that the surveillance camera can't reach, which is not a good place. Since you want to meet with yourself, it means that it should be related to the dragon family. Was it he who found the self-awakened man in the exercise of justice as always? Since it's a friend, it's not Deadpool or a thug or anything like that.......
"Here it is, here it is." Li Su interrupted his train of thought with a foot on the brake. Well, since we can meet soon, let's meet first.
"Nice place." Ange looked at the two-storey cottage in front of him.
With a pale red and light blue façade, a small but just right terrace, a verdant manicured garden, and floor-to-ceiling windows that let in natural light, it is indeed a suitable place to live.
"Not bad, right? I chose. Hearing Ange's praise, Li Su looked quite proud.
What did he choose? What do you mean? Did he choose where this friend lived? What is the relationship between them? Ange thought something strange, and he had a not-so-good guess.
"Today I brought an old acquaintance with me! What does Master Yue eat at night? It won't be ramen again, right? Li Su was obviously not so restrained, and stretched out his hand and pushed open the outer door and walked into the house.
Old acquaintances? I also know? Who will it be? Master Yue? Exceed? Where do you feel like you've heard it....... That one... The student who eats ramen said! He called Uesugi ..... Master Yue!
Ange suddenly burst out with a speed disproportionate to his age, and he pushed Li Su away and ran towards the most obvious sound source in the villa, the sound of dough slamming on the board from the kitchen.
"Who are you bringing here? Pizza tonight! Master Yue walked out of the kitchen while wiping his hands, and met Ange who was running. The moment they recognized each other, both of them were stunned.
Ange's lips trembled and his eyes floated, obviously on the verge of an emotional outburst, while Master Yue scratched his head in embarrassment, obviously not knowing what to say.
"What's going on?!" Ange turned back and questioned Li Su, who was slowly pacing into the restaurant.
"What else can I do? I saved him, of course, I can't handle so many ghost-toothed dragon vipers, so I'll slip away after saving people! ”
Before Ange could sort out the mess of his brain, two figures holding hands appeared at the corner staircase. The taller one was stunned when he saw Ange, and then bowed to him respectfully: "Hello Teacher Ange." The girl holding his hand did the same.
"You....... You didn't mean to fulfill his ......," Ange looked back at Li Su again.
"Wish, what's wrong? Can't a living person have a wish? Li Su also looked at him with a strange expression.
Before they could continue to say a few words, two more figures appeared behind Gen Zhisheng and Yabuki Sakura, one of them was eight points similar to Gen Zhisheng, but he looked soft and weak, more like he was holding the hand of the girl next to him, obviously it was Gen Zhinu now and not Ruri Kazama.
"Explain to the teacher, I'm going to have dinner with my girlfriend." Li Su threw down Principal Ange, whose brain was blank, and left the second-story villa. Or rather, slip away before being stopped.
