Chapter 204 - Council Inquiry Meeting

The school board moved faster than expected.

Just came out of the equipment department, Lu Mingfei received a notice from Norma.

"Dear S-class student Lu Mingfei, the school board will hold an inquiry meeting in Portofino in three days, please attend on time."

"From your faithful Norma."

He casually dragged the information into the recycle bin and walked towards the Norton Pavilion.

At night, the lobby of the Norton Pavilion is brightly lit.

The Crimson Star Warband are celebrating their defeat of another Alien King and their success in preventing the birth of another Alien King.

In addition, the alchemy equipment purchased from Sotheby's directional auction has also been distributed.

Each person was given the right equipment for their characteristics and needs, and a few that were not needed for the time being were placed in the Warband's arsenal.

Put it together with the mess like Magatama that increases the chance of pregnancy given by the Japanese branch, and wait for the day when it will see the light of day again.

"Thank you to the Holy Emperor for giving us the power to slay the horrible Xenomorphs."

"Thank you to the Great Emperor for protecting our hearts and minds so that we are not seduced by the power of the aliens."

"Thank you to the merciful emperor for bestowing us good fortune on our expedition."

"Praise be to the Lord of men!"

Led by the chief singer, the crowd sang in unison.

"Please come in, President Caesar."

After praying, Lu Mingfei said towards the door.

The blonde youth had been waiting in the shadows for a while.

"I hope I haven't disturbed your prayers."

Caesar Gattuso said politely.

"No matter what time it is, the Crimson Star Warband welcomes you."

Lu Mingfei said solemnly.

"Brother Lu's words really flattered me."

Caesar laughed.

Then, he saw Fingal and Chu Zihang looking at him with strange expressions.

"What? Do I have something on my face? ”

Caesar touched his face uncomfortably, still so smooth and delicate.

"Boss Caesar, have you signed up for some strange Chinese cram school recently?"

Fingal asked.

"No, but I've been tutoring Chinese recently."

Caesar nodded.

Because he felt that his communication with Nuno was not soulful enough, it must be because Chinese was not good enough.

"How did you get your tuition?"

Fingal asked again.

"Watching TV series, I was watching "The Condor Heroes" recently, and I feel that the momentum of the protagonist Yang Guo is similar to me."

Caesar was happy to share his experience with them, which gave him a sense of joy with the people.

Yang Guo and Ling are like ghosts, you are more similar to his father Yang Kang.

Fingal complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, for fear that Caesar would call a cart of breadmen to beat him up.

In fact, he was too worried, if Caesar knew Yang Kang's life experience, there was a high probability that he would praise him for his vision.

After all, he never liked his biological father.

"Boss Caesar, you still watch some modern dramas, watching martial arts dramas to learn Chinese will only deepen the generation gap between you and Miss Nono."

Fingal kindly reminded.

"Really? Okay, then I'll go back and find out. By the way, I almost forgot to get down to business. ”

Naturally, Caesar found his seat and sat down, and then said.

"Is the school board going to trouble you?"

"That's right. How do you know? ”

Lu Mingfei asked.

"Guess. The people of the family advised me not to get too close to you, and I knew they were going to attack you. ”

Caesar said.

"That's right, they asked me to go to a place called Portofino for an interrogation."

Lu Mingfei nodded.

"Portofino, that's my hometown. A seaside town in Italy with a nice view. ”

Hearing Portofino's name, Caesar seemed delighted.

"I often swim in the nearby sea, where the golden sun shines on the surface of the sea in the early morning, and the seagulls gather and fly low, waiting for the small fish to jump out of the undulating waves."

"Sometimes a falcon would sneak in, and I'd dive in and swing my arms and pretend to be a fish. When it folded its wings and rushed to the surface of the water, it suddenly reached out and grabbed its claws. Watch it panic for a while before letting it go. ”

He tilted his head, his gaze seemingly through the walls of the Norton Pavilion, looking to the shore on the other side of the globe.

At the end, Caesar smiled triumphantly, and no longer looked like a proud king, but just a mischievous teenager.

"You can come with me."

Lu Mingfei proposed.

"No need, although my hometown is beautiful, there are too many people I hate."

He shook his head.

"The Crimson Star Warband will always be your friend."

Lu Mingfei emphasized again.

"Haha, if I need your help, I'm not welcome. But this time, the main thing is to give you a heads up. ”

Caesar said with a smile.

"You say."

"My uncle is still in the hospital, so lately the family affairs have been handled by Patsy Gattuso. It is not surprising that he was the one who spoke on behalf of the Gasotu family at this interrogation meeting. ”

Caesar said.

"Is there anything special about him?"

Lu Mingfei asked.

Caesar grabbed the long blonde hair in front of his forehead, seemingly bothered by the question.

"Well, I don't know him very well, even though he's always been my senior secretary. He always stood there with a blank face, listening to my orders and giving advice or meticulously executing them, like a bionic robot. ”

He said as he reminisced.

"But I feel like he's not as cold inside as he seems. Of course, I didn't care about that before. But since you're going to deal with him, be careful, he's a lot tougher than my uncle. ”

Caesar reminded.

"I'll be wary. Handle it like your uncle? ”

Lu Mingfei asked for his opinion.

"Well, try not to, Parcy is the least obnoxious of Gattuso's gang."

He hesitated.

"Understood."

Lu Mingfei nodded.

Out of respect for his friend, as long as Patsy doesn't kill himself, he won't beat him too hard.

"Patsy."

"I'm here, Your Excellency."

Patsy bent down so that he could hear the other man's words.

"Have you arranged the interrogation meeting?"

Frost, lying in a hospital bed, asked.

He looked much better than when he was first put on the stretcher, at least he didn't have to be tied up like a mummy.

"It's all arranged, the school board has accepted me to speak on behalf of the family, and the notice of the inquiry meeting has been sent."

Patsy said respectfully.

"Good."

Frost blinked in satisfaction.

"To strengthen the security force, Lu Mingfei is more like a madman than Ange, no one knows what he will do, and the school directors will never be allowed to have an accident in the family base camp."

He emphasized.

"Understood, I will arrange for the most elite snipers to be fully loaded with alchemy bullets."

Patsy replied.

"What do you think Lu Mingfei got in Japan?"

Frost asked suddenly.

"Lu Mingfei's related surveillance video and other materials have been completely blocked by the Japanese branch, and even the hidden piles planted by the family cannot get any accurate information, and it is difficult to directly analyze a result."

Patsy said honestly.

"Then tell me your guess."

Frost said impatiently.

"Judging from the elemental imbalance detected by the family's dark pile, either there are dragons of more than secondary species who are exerting their spirit with all their might, or a certain Nibelungen has collapsed, or an unimaginable alchemy creation has been born."

Patsy replied quickly, apparently already having an idea.

"What's the most likely?"

Frost asked.

"I'm leaning towards the first and third. Because there is no need to hide such a thing as the collapse of the Nibelungen. ”

Patsy said.

Anyway, it has collapsed, and there is no proof of what is in it, so the Japanese branch can make up a report at will.

"Try your best to get the truth out of Lu Mingfei's mouth. If it is the first type, the family will know the whereabouts of that dragon. If it is the third type, such a powerful alchemical creation should be handed over to the best alchemists for study. ”

And the world's best alchemists have a total of one stone, and Cassel and Gattuso have a total of nine buckets.

"Yes, I will formulate countermeasures based on the information I have."

Percy replied.

"What about the Huaguo branch? Haven't they found out what's going on in the Himalayas? ”

Frost asked again.

"No, as you know, there are a lot of constraints on the operations of the Huaguo branch."

Patsy said gently.

"Hmph, that's their territory, it's impossible not to have any effect at all."

Frost said dissatisfied.

Of course, he knew what Patsy meant, the history of Huaguo was too long, so long that before the establishment of the secret party, there were many powerful half-blood families in that land.

Even if due to historical changes and dynastic changes, these mixed-race families are not as good as before, but they are still emaciated camels bigger than horses.

Moreover, it is not just the half-breeds that are strong in China.

However, since the Huaguo branch has been established, so much money has been taken every year, so it must play a role.

"There's a clue."

Patsy took a book out of his bosom and opened it for him.

"What is this? Guidebook? ”

Frost asked, confused.

"This is a cycling travelogue written by a man named Xu Yunliu. He recently lost contact while riding the XZ, and the timing coincided with Lu Mingfei's mission. ”

Patsy explained.

"He broke Lu Mingfei's deeds, and their actions were extinguished?"

Frost guessed with a little malice.

"I asked the Huaguo branch to investigate this person and found that he is a black household, there is no past, only the present."

Patsy said.

"You're saying he's an awakened dragon."

Frost's expression became serious.

"Yes."

As we all know, as long as the high-level dragon clan prepares the "egg" before death and completes the "cocooning" of the soul, it can hatch again.

But after being reborn, they often lose their memories, roam the world as a human being, and gradually form a new self.

Until the dragon's self awakens and devours the human self.

Thinking of the previous report of the Huaguo Branch, someone found traces of dragons on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Frost's eyes widened.

If Xu Yunliu wasn't that dragon, then Lu Mingfei probably encountered two dragons on the plateau.

Coupled with the possibility of more than one generation of generations, Lu Mingfei may have encountered three pure-blood dragons in a short period of time.

And he didn't even say a word about it, hiding everything from the school board and the Gattuso family!

No, he would not allow such disobedience to happen.

"At all costs, we must get the truth about these two missions. If Lu Mingfei doesn't hand over the secret, then let him stay in Portofino forever. ”

Frost said viciously.

He didn't really care much about being beaten by Lu Mingfei, and the interests of the Gattuso family were his real counter-scales.

"As you wish, Your Excellency."

Patsy bent to retreat.

"Wait, you've been getting your hair down today, why?"

He frowned suddenly.

Patcy hesitated for a moment, silently lifting her silky forehead hair, and two pupils were exposed, one ice blue and the other dark gold.

Both colors are beautiful when viewed separately, but at the same time they look shocking on one face, like a demon.

"Have you taken any medicine?"

Frost asked, somewhat unnaturally avoiding his gaze.

"It's useless to take medicine."

Patsy said lightly.

"At least it can make you comfortable, and people who don't live long should be especially kind to themselves."

Frost's voice was unusually gentle.

"Thank you."

Patsy turned away and closed the door to the room.
