At the same time, I would like to thank you for taking care of me during this time, whether it is Principal Angers who has always stood by my side, and Enxi and Lisa for their full support of me.

Or the two good girls Zero and Lucia have always been silently concerned about me.

Thank you for your kindness! ”

Lu Mingfei stood up from his seat and raised his glass with the same smile.

Although being in a foreign country lacks the blessings of friends and relatives, Lu Mingfei's mood at the moment is still very happy.

"Zero, excellent in all subjects, first-class dancers, very good cooking skills, and the chief violinist of the Lionheart Club of Kassel."

Lu Mingfei, who had drunk a lot of wine, suddenly introduced to everyone.

"Bang bang bang!"

Immediately there was a round of applause.

For his introduction, she stood up expressionlessly, and she calmly accepted everyone's applause in a black and white maid outfit.

"Lucia, who is equally good at studying, is serious and upright, and is also my very capable assistant in the Lionhearts, except for some frankness, there are no shortcomings!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Another round of applause.

"I will be a sharp blade in the hands of Senior Brother Lu."

Lucia, who was praised by Lu Mingfei in person, although she was very shy, she still stood up and showed her determination.

In Lu Mingfei's introduction, Ange applauded over and over again, tirelessly.

In the middle of the drink, Ange walked up to Lu Mingfei and patted him on the shoulder:

"Ming Fei, do you have time now?"

"Uh-huh, yes, yes."

Lu Mingfei replied after swallowing the snack handed over by Zero.

"Come over here, then." Ange raised an eyebrow.

When night falls, the scenery around the villa is also very special.

Under the twinkling of the stars, the gardens in the villa are decorated dreamily with soft and romantic lighting.

At the same time, the night sky is filled with the scent of flowers and the sound of running water from the stream, and the occasional breeze blows, bringing a burst of floral fragrance.

Lu Mingfei and Ange sat on the balcony enjoying such a beautiful view, and the two of them relaxed while drinking the concocted wine, immersed in the embrace of nature.

"Seeing you young reminds me of my former self." Ange looked at the night scene and spoke.

"What kind of person was the headmaster when he was young?" Lu Mingfei asked with great interest.

Ang nodded his head, his eyes blurred, as if his thoughts had flown to the distant end of time:

"When I was in Cambridge, people had a different aesthetic than they do now, and girls liked to wear white silk dresses and Oxford heels.

And I was holding a book of poetry by the Bridge of Sighs and pretending to read a book, watching the girls walk in front of me, expecting the wind to blow their long white silk dresses.

Oh, their pretty little legs are amazing! I felt like I was living for that scene.

Ming Fei, can you understand. ”

Ange looked fascinated.

Lu Mingfei thought about the beautiful girls he had encountered.

Su Xiaoqiao, Eri Yi, Jiude Mai, Su Enxi, etc., they are indeed quite moving when they wear skirts when they show their dazzling smooth calves.

In this regard, Lu Mingfei nodded fiercely.

Seeing that Lu Mingfei agreed with his own philosophy, Ange was very happy.

"Do you have a lot of nostalgia for Cambridge?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"To be honest, Cambridge today is just a phantom of the Cambridge of a hundred years ago to me, but I still can't help but go back there again and again.

Because I still feel warm standing there, and I can still recall the white silk dress and Oxford heels I remember a hundred years ago.

So, I should be nostalgic. ”

Ange replied softly.

After nodding, Lu Mingfei continued to ask: "So, headmaster, did you want to say something by calling me here?" ”

"At today's annual meeting of the Board of Trustees, I understand your will and your philosophy, so today, taking advantage of this good atmosphere, I want to tell you one of the reasons why I have always trusted you so much." Ange said.

"Why just one." Lu Mingfei asked.

"Because I can only talk about this one reason now, you don't think I'm not honest enough and suddenly pull out a knife and cut off my old bone." Ange raised an eyebrow.

"It depends." Lu Mingfei said with a smile.

After shrugging his shoulders, Ange began to tell his reasoning:

"I graduated from Cambridge Theological Seminary in 1897 and was one of the founders of the Lionhearts.

My companions are Menek Kassel, Lu Shanhiko, Sheikh Brendan, and Tiger Jamal

My teachers are Gravedigger Gambett, Silverwing Charlotte and Iron Cross Mayek"

"Lu Shanyan."

Lu Mingfei repeated a name that Ange had read earlier.

"Yes, your grandfather's grandfather, Lu Shanhiko, was the first member of the Lionheart Society like me, but he is much more senior than me, and I have been taken care of by him a lot."

At this point, Ange's mood also became happy.

It seems that just talking to old friends can make him happy.

"Like you, his bloodline is S-class, and his weapons are two large-caliber revolvers, which Menek specially made for him through Krupp's mechanics.

Your great-grandfather can use it to shoot 40 bullets in a fraction of the time. ”

"And what is the spirit of his words?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously.

"Scythe." Ange replied quickly.

"The same scythe as Caesar?"

"Don't look at Yan Ling as a scythe, but after he bursts blood, he can advance Yan Ling to a vampire sickle, and he can last for forty-five minutes.

He relied on this spirit to resist Li Wuyue's attack for a long time, and was fully prepared to kill Li Wuyue. ”

Ange told stories that he hadn't told anyone else for a long time.

"Because my great-grandfather was your friend and a member of the original Lionhearts, so you trust me so much?

Even if that's just one of the reasons. ”

Lu Mingfei asked suspiciously.

"Or else?" Ange asked in surprise.

"Ugh"

"I thought you'd talk about something else, like seeing a lion in my eyes."

"Or I saw in me the shadow of my great-grandfather or something."

Lu Mingfei scratched his head and said.

"Haha." Ange patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder heartily, "Just by looking at a person's eyes, you can tell if he is the next leader of the secret party, I can't do it in this mysterious way." ”

"You're nepotism, aren't you?" Lu Mingfei complained.

"Nepotism, I love that word." Ange smoked a cigar.

"One more thing."

Just when Lu Mingfei thought the chat was over, Ange suddenly said.

"What's the matter?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Can you still use the kind of makeup you wore on your face before?"

As he spoke, Ange took out a document from his bosom that had been prepared.

"Sotheby, one of the finest auction houses in the world, is an important place for the circulation of art."

"It's a directional auction." (End of chapter)
