Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 188 We Will Take Good Care of Your Sister
Minamoto and Erika donned black kimonos to hide the bright colors of their clothes.

In Japan, relatives are not allowed to wear clothes other than black at funerals. Although the eight Saki families are divided into eight surnames, all of the eight families are prosperous and all are prosperous, and all of them are damaged, so they are all treated as relatives.

In today's Inushan Tribe, only Lu Mingfei and the other three wear gray clothes, because they have no relationship with the bereaved, neither friends nor relatives, so they don't have to strictly follow the rules.

After changing clothes, Erika's cell phone in her pocket rang.

She took it out and took a look. It was a photo of the rockery. Before she had time to type, Inuyama He suddenly said: "Patriarch Uesugi, we are going to attend the funeral next. I hope you can turn off your phone and don't make extra noise. In high school On campus, students are also not allowed to carry mobile phones."

Erika looked at Minamoto, Inuyamaga put an index finger in front of her mouth.

Yuan Zhisheng knew that Inuyamaga's test had already begun, and if he failed to meet even this small requirement, Erika's study plan might be ruined on the spot.

He really wanted to analyze the stakes for Erika. Although Erika was 18 years old, she was immature, and she might not be able to hear the temptation in these words.

Since her father allowed her to own a mobile phone last year, she has carried this small iron box with her, and must put it under her pillow when she sleeps. Even Yuan Zhisheng may not be able to stop her from turning off her mobile phone.

Yuan Zhisheng was a little nervous and wanted to remind him.

But as I said beforehand, he can't interfere with Erika's judgment, otherwise Inuyama Ka will refute the two of them as unqualified.

If it is not possible to take a shortcut here, it can only be decided through the family meeting.

At that time, the matter will only be delayed for a long time, and Erika will very likely be unable to bear it and run away from home, which is a more dangerous behavior.

Yuan Zhisheng was very aware of this, but the other Patriarchs didn't know much about Erika.

In other people's cognition, Erika is an unstable final weapon with No. 111 Lingling Trial. Unless the fact that she ran away from home is in front of her, it is impossible for the family owners to agree to let her in a short time. Go out and read in public.

Yuan Zhisheng still didn't speak in the end.

He watched the girl quietly, waiting for her to make her own judgment.

After a while, Erika put the phone back in her pocket, took out a small book and a pen to write on it.

"Can I say goodbye to Sakura? Then I'll turn off the phone."

"Sakura?" Inuyama frowned.

"This is a netizen of Eriyi." Yuan Zhisheng explained.

At this time, he was able to speak, but he was only asked not to interfere with Erika, not to be a mute.

"Netizen, I understand, Patriarch Uesugi, please go ahead." Inuyama He nodded.

"Thank you." Erika wrote in the notebook.

Then she typed in the chat box: [I am going to the funeral soon, they said that the mobile phone should be turned off during the funeral, so Sakura, bye, see you next time]

She held the phone and waited for a while, and Sakura also sent a message [Well, bye, see you next time]

After reading the message, she turned off her phone and bowed to Inuyama He.

Inuyama Ka was a little surprised, he didn't expect her to be so polite.

In his impression, Patriarch Uesugi has always been a person who ignores the rules and does not understand etiquette. Even in shrines that enshrine the spirit tablets of ancestors, she often plays with game consoles or mobile phones. Only Yuan Zhisheng and the elders can play. Stop her, and the words of the rest are basically deaf to her.

Since she occupies one of the chairmanships of the three major surnames, Inuyama Ka is not too harsh on her. If the younger generation of the Inuyama family dares to be so rude, they will have to kneel in front of the ancestral hall for at least a day and a night when they return home, punishing their ancestors Train 300 times.

It seems that Patriarch Uesugi has indeed changed a bit.

But it's just that I can't see anything. In the family meeting last night, the scene of her playing with her mobile phone was still vivid in my memory.

Perhaps it was because Mr. Yuan Zhi gave "counseling" to Patriarch Uesugi in advance, and Inuyama Kaka would not relax easily.

A child's patience is very poor. Even if she promises you that she will never steal candy, she will still show her original shape after a long time without supervision.

In the mourning hall, the three of Lu Mingfei sat in a corner.

They occupied a seat alone, which was specially prepared for them, because they were the distinguished guests of the head of the house.

"Are those Yuka Inuyama's parents? His eyes are swollen, and it seems that he cried a lot after hearing the bad news last night." Caesar whispered.

"Japanese funerals usually end within two days. On the first night, family members keep vigil for the dead. On the second day, after monks come to chant sutras, they will be cremated and buried. When we were attacked last night, it was already noon, said the owner of the Inuyama family. It was early this morning that the body was transported from the headquarters, that is to say, they had guarded the empty coffin overnight." Chu Zihang looked at Yuka Inuyama's parents and shook his head slightly.

"The world is really impermanent." Lu Mingfei put down his phone and joined the discussion.

"Life is so fragile, no one knows what will happen in the next second." Chu Zihang said lightly.

"Are we here to discuss the philosophy of life?" Caesar pointed to the transparent glass coffin, "You two philosophers, do you see anything?"

"The naked eye alone cannot make an accurate judgment." Chu Zihang said: "On the file, Inuyama Yuka is 1.72 meters tall and weighs 55kg. The weight cannot be measured for the time being. The height is not much different from this data, but She has no head, which will cause a lot of error, and more precise measurements must be made." Chu Zihang analyzed the data.

"But she is now covered with a black cloth, and there are still people here, how should we measure it." Lu Mingfei said with a headache: "The body will be cremated in a while, and the time left for us is a bit tight. "

"Before cremation, the monks should first chant scriptures and remove the ring name used in the afterlife for the deceased. Then family members and friends will put the folded thousand paper cranes and flowers into the coffin. At this time, close relatives are You can touch the body and send your blessings."

Chu Zihang said:

"The Japanese believe that paper cranes and the body will be cremated together to carry the dead to the other shore. Although we are not related to Yuka Inuyama, we can fold paper cranes and put them in the coffin together at that time. At this time You can get a closer look."

"The error of naked eye observation is still too big. Why don't we start with the characteristics. We each observe the characteristics and record them, and we will discuss them later." Caesar took out his mobile phone and pointed to the photo of the girl before she was alive.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang nodded, and decided to follow suit first.

Caesar wrote in the memo on the phone: [At least 36D], [There are more Qiuhai pears in the vase, maybe it’s her preference], [The hairpin is purple, maybe she likes purple hair accessories]

Chu Zihang recorded: [There is a mole on the left side of the neck], [The right thumb joint is slightly thick].
Lu Mingfei wrote: [Hair is very black], [Wearing white socks], [Fingers are beautiful].
A few minutes later, the three shared their recorded information.

"As expected of Senior Brother Caesar, he analyzed her preferences with just one photo."

"I'm sorry, I'm used to it, but how can I compare to Junior Brother Lu Mingfei, the whole article is full of nonsense."

The two stared at each other, but in the end Chu Zihang's analysis was the most useful.

So Chu Zihang asked the maid for a pile of paper, and the three of them sat at the table and folded the thousand paper cranes so that they could get close to the body later.

"Caesar, can your weasel be used to detect distance?" Chu Zihang whispered.

"You want me to measure her height?" Caesar threw a folded origami crane aside, "It's impossible, speed multiplied by time equals distance, and only radar can use the timing accurate to the decimal point Using the speed of sound to calculate the distance and azimuth, my weasel can only measure the surrounding terrain, which has a specific impression in my mind, but it cannot accurately measure a person's height."

"Then what if the return time of the sound wave is multiplied?" Chu Zihang took out two pieces of paper, folded them slightly with a short distance, and stood them on the table.

"The time for a single return is determined." His finger moved from one end to the other, "The time for one return may be too short, what about 1, 10, 100 times? If you can control the number of rebounds of the weasel , the original decimal will become an integer, and you only need to divide the time to become an integer by the number of times to get more accurate data."

"No, there is no reference." Caesar shook his head and said, "The weasel, the word spirit, in the embodiment of the user, releases an invisible wind, that is, 'weasels', and they return after a period of time. Into my body, bringing to me the outside sounds they hear.

I can indeed give them orders according to the number of times, but before they come back to me, I can't control them. I can order them to crash in the coffin and come back after hitting a thousand times, but this thousand The route of each time is random and does not necessarily follow a vertical route. "

"Then like this, is it okay to go back and forth between the two sides of the paper?"

"This is possible."

"That's easy." Chu Zihang looked at Lu Mingfei, "Since there is no reference, let's create a reference."

"Brother Chu Zihang, you want me to use Jianyu to manipulate metal for Brother Caesar to create a reference?"

"That's right." Chu Zihang said, "We only need to measure the distance from her shoulders to her toes, and based on the proportions of the photo, we can more accurately determine whether there is a gap between the body's height and the height in the photo."

"In this case, it may work." Caesar nodded thoughtfully.

"Leave it to me." Lu Mingfei patted his left shoulder and made an OK gesture.

After the three of them made the plan, they folded the thousand paper cranes with peace of mind, and waited for the monk to arrive for the next step of the funeral.

After a while, instead of the monk, an old acquaintance came.

Inuyama Ka took Minamoto and a girl with red hair and bright eyes into the mourning hall.

"Nuo Nuo?" Chu Zihang looked away for a moment.

Caesar couldn't help but take another look.

Red hair and rose pupils are extremely rare, and Nuonuo's red hair and rose pupils are natural, and the difference from those with dyed hair or colored contact lenses can be seen at a glance, but the girl in front of her is not the same. He is naturally proud, very similar to Nuonuo.

But if you take a closer look, you will find that there is a huge difference between the temperament of this girl and Nuo Nuo.

Especially those eyes, Nuonuo's eyes are always full of agility, but the girl's eyes are as empty as a mirror.

"This isn't Nuonuo, it's Yuan Zhisheng's younger sister." Lu Mingfei whispered.

At this time, Inuyama He had already walked in front of them.

The girl followed all the way, and when she saw Lu Mingfei, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she waved to Lu Mingfei politely.

It seemed that she hadn't forgotten the rainstorm, and the scene of the two hiding under the telephone pole and sharing a cherry blossom pancake.

No one would forget it, Lu Mingfei also raised his hand, greeted the girl with a smile, and waved to Yuan Zhisheng by the way.

"Little friend Lu Mingfei and Patriarch Uesugi know each other?" Inuyama Ka asked doubtfully.

He didn't know that Eri Yi ran into something about Lu Mingfei when he ran away from home. Although this thing was written in Lu Mingfei's file stored in Kaguya Ji, it was just a passing note, and he didn't read it carefully.

After all, Patriarch Uesugi stays at Genji Heavy Industries 365 days a year, even if he goes out to eat, it will not exceed 3 hours, and there are a large number of teams around him to protect him.

It stands to reason that it is absolutely impossible for Lu Mingfei to get in touch with Patriarch Uesugi before today.

"Half a year ago, I was lucky enough to meet once. It rained heavily that day, and I was invited by Yuan Zhisheng's seniors to take shelter from the rain." Lu Mingfei said.

"Is that so?" Inuyama Ka thought about it.

Since Patriarch Uesugi and Lu Mingfei knew each other, it happened to be a test opportunity to see how Patriarch Uesugi would get along with outsiders.

"In that case, can Patriarch Uesugi sit here for a while?" Inuyama Ka said to Erika.

"Yes." Erika wrote in her notebook, and sat on the side of the round table, with a chair across from Lu Mingfei.

"I'll sit here too." Yuan Zhisheng also prepared to sit down.

"Master Kukai from Sensoji Temple has arrived, young master Yuan Zhisheng and I will welcome you together." Inuyama Ka stopped Yuan Zhisheng.

He just wanted to see what Patriarch Uesugi would be like without any acquaintances. If he really wanted to send Patriarch Uesugi to school, it would be impossible for Yuan Zhisheng to accompany him.

If Yuan Zhisheng stayed with Patriarch Uesugi, the reliability of this test would be greatly reduced.

Yuanzhi understood the meaning of Inuyamaga's assessment, so he had no choice but to give up taking the exam.

"Please also take care of my younger sister, she is more shy and has never been out much." Yuan Zhisheng said helplessly
"Don't worry senior, we will take good care of your sister." Lu Mingfei said.

"I'll be back soon, so I'll trouble you during this time." Yuan Zhisheng stood next to Inuyamaka, gave Erika a thumbs up gesture, and then left the mourning hall with Inuyamaga.

Erika waved at his back, sat upright on the bench, and looked at the thousand paper cranes on the table.

She habitually fumbled for the phone in her pocket, but then thought of Inuyamaga's words, and took her hand back.

After that, she raised her head and looked at Lu Mingfei who was at the side, or at the paper in his hand, just staring at it intently, watching the white paper folded and turned into a small paper crane.
