Dragon Clan: Reboot Life

Chapter 5: The Dog That Bereaved
Across eleven time zones.

The three professors on duty gathered in the control room, ready for battle.

Regarding the current situation, Manstein briefly concluded: "So now Lu Mingfei and B007 are suspected of being attacked by the Dragon Clan, but they are safe and sound, but a precious SS-level file has been lost?"

Wearing a nightcap, Professor Guderian, who was dragged up from the bed, yelled: "Mingfei has already performed very well. It was an attack from a dragon, and he is only a freshman this year!"

Schneider waved his hand and said in a low voice: "The most important thing now is to retrieve this document. This is what the school board wants. Believe me, you don't want to face the anger of the school board."

Manstein said coldly, "I think the appearance of the dragon is more important."

Schneider paused and explained: "I don't deny that a magnitude [-] earthquake can't instantly destroy a newly built platform that uses an aluminum alloy skeleton structure and can theoretically resist a magnitude [-] earthquake! But now our first goal is to take Go back to the file information requested by the school board."

"I know, this is called Tofu Project in China!" Guderian jumped out suddenly.

"Don't quack quack if you don't understand!" Manstein glared angrily, "A magnitude [-] earthquake can't even knock down a dilapidated building!"

"I don't know, I've never heard of such a spirit of speech." Schneider spread his hands, "According to the brief report just submitted by B007, from when they noticed the anomaly to the occurrence of a disaster, it was an instant. Destroy an aluminum alloy hall that can accommodate thousands of people waiting for the bus?"

"This intensity can soon catch up with Rhine!"

"Do we still have time to send an investigation team?" Manstein asked.

"Without an investigation team, the time limit given by the school board is before 19:00 local time tonight." Schneider looked down at his watch, "There are about eight hours left."

"Damn it, has anyone chosen?" Manstein covered his face with his hands, powerless.

"There is a group from the School Engineering Department who can catch up. They are on vacation locally, but they can only serve as an assistant. The commissioner must have a bloodline advantage." Schneider said lightly.

Manstein sighed: "Very good, that means we should use the students, right?"

"In terms of bloodline advantages, 'A' grade Chu Zihang and 'S' grade Lu Mingfei, they both have absolute bloodline advantages. Moreover, their families are all in the local area, and they are currently on vacation."

Guderian jumped out again: "That's right, Mingfei is good! Mingfei is 'S' class!"

As Lu Mingfei's instructor, he always has full confidence in Mingfei. Even if his students just failed two courses last semester, the rest of the subjects are hovering at the pass line, and they haven't mastered the language yet.

But it doesn't matter, he believes that Mingfei is the best!

"Shut up! Your 'S' class just screwed up a mission, and now we're finishing it up for him!" Manstein snapped.

Guderian muttered dissatisfiedly and protested: "This is force majeure! It has nothing to do with Mingfei, he is a good boy!"

Schneider said lightly: "Don't think about it, now there are only two options, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei, the blood concentration of B007 is too low, and he is currently hospitalized for a suspected concussion."

"Don't think about it! I know that Chu Zihang is your student, but he is a pure violent faction. There are twelve demerits in the mission file. Do you know that his current situation is very dangerous?" Manstein looked uneasy road.

Schneider looked straight into his eyes and paused word by word: "So, what choice do we have?"

Manstein took a deep breath and closed his eyes painfully.

The saddest thing in the world is when you know what the worst option is, but you can only choose this one because you have no other choice.

"Chu Zihang is indeed excellent, but he is also too sharp. He can only be part of a team, not a team alone, so..."

Manstein paused, and said quickly,

"Chu Zihang Commissioner, Lu Mingfei's assistant!"

"Okay." Schneider said calmly.

They reached a compromise in the shortest possible time because time waits for no one.

"Norma, Chu Zihang is the commissioner, Lu Mingfei is assisting, and the school engineering department is added as a reinforcement. Submit this list of members of the executive team to the school board for review!" Schneider said solemnly.

"Understood." An elegant female voice came from all directions.

"The school board of directors has replied to the letter, the team has been adjusted, and the 'S'-level Lu Mingfei is appointed as the mission specialist, and the 'A'-level Chu Zihang will provide him with assistance. Chu Zihang should obey Lu Mingfei's dispatch."

A few minutes later, Norma's voice sounded again in the control room.

The three professors on duty were dumbfounded, and the scene was extremely silent.

"My God! The school board really recognized Ming Fei's talent!" Guderian waved his hands in surprise.

Manstein and Schneider felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and were speechless for a while.

As the school's new S-level, Lu Mingfei is indeed the most useless S-level they have ever seen. He has no speech skills and fails his studies.

They tried their best to extract the sparkle from him, but they found nothing.

They were initially worried that Lu Mingfei would commit suicide by swallowing a gun because he was too good like the previous S-class.

But the facts tell them that they are worrying too much.

Let such a defeated dog command and dispatch a lion, what does the school board think?

Are they optimistic about the new S-level student Lu Mingfei, or do they want to harm him?

"Three questions." Manstein asked Schneider suddenly, looking directly into Schneider's eyes.

"Ask, if I can answer."

"First, what exactly is this SS-level file?"

"Secondly, why not let B007 directly bring this important information to the academy headquarters to report? Instead, arrange for a student who is a freshman who is on summer vacation to meet up. Do we need this transfer? Lu Mingfei seems to be just a person in this task. By courier."

"Third, even if someone needs someone to deliver the courier, why didn't Chu Zihang go? Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei live in the same city. He is the president of the Lion Heart Club. Although he hasn't graduated yet, he has done several internships. The mission is as experienced as the senior executive department commissioner, if he was arranged, these troubles would not have occurred in the first place."

Manstein looked into Schneider's eyes and said with emphasis,
"Explain it for me!"

Schneider was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice:
"This file is China's secret file on 'unknown types of crimes' in the past five years. It records all kinds of incredible crimes. Most of them are just criminals who are cunning, or criminal methods are too sophisticated to guess, or some kind of scientific Rare incidents that can be explained, but very few of them are related to the Dragon Clan. What the school board needs is the last point!"

"In addition, the daily report submitted by B007 mentioned that he may be followed. Although there is no tangible evidence, he is also a student who has taken our courses. If he has such a strong feeling, he has to be careful, so we arranged this time. Handover, in order to send the files back to the college headquarters in a low-key manner, the students were used, but they did not expect the system to automatically assign the task to Lu Mingfei, probably because he was the closest? As for Chu Zihang, although it is also very convenient, but I removed him from the list of 'available for task transfer'. Now I decide to call him, but it is also a last resort."

"You got to the point, go ahead."

Manstein insisted. The style of the director of the Disciplinary Committee has always been like this, which is also professionalism.

"In this file, there is a case that may be related to Chu Zihang...we don't want him to know."

"What case?"

"Six years ago, a Maybach sedan was involved in an accident on the elevated road due to a typhoon and a torrential rain. The car was abandoned with a lot of unexplained damage to the body. Not in the car. The driver was never seen again and he evaporated from the world."

"So? What does this have to do with Chu Zihang?"

"He is Chu Zihang's biological father."

……

……

The mobile phone sealed in the waterproof bag suddenly lights up

Chu Zihang walked out of the shower.

The phone was connected, and a hoarse and calm male voice came from the opposite side, "Chu Zihang. It's me, Von Schneider. Do you have a pen at hand? Prepare to record."

"Wait five seconds." Chu Zihang said.

Schneider silently counted to five.

"Urgent mission of the executive department, number 2S, retrieve an important document before 19:00 tonight, the detailed content has already been sent to your mailbox by Norma, remember, restrain yourself, don't make it too hot! Try to restrain casualties ,Are you in China!"

"2S? Understood." Chu Zihang tore off the note, folded it and stuffed it into his pocket.

Schneider paused and said, "Are you going back to the headquarters tonight? Norma booked UA836 direct flight to Chicago for you and Lu Mingfei, and you will come back with Lu Mingfei when you get the file."

"Lu Mingfei?" Chu Zihang was taken aback.

He was previously surprised by the difficulty of the 2S-level task. Before that, he only took the A-level, but the teacher asked him to go, but now he heard the name, and he expressed more obvious consternation than before.

Schneider was silent for a while, and he himself felt that it was outrageous, but this is a matter decided by the school board, and it may not be easy for the principal to object to something decided by the school board.

He could only consider his words and said: "The commissioner for this mission is Lu Mingfei, you are responsible for assisting his actions, and you must listen to his arrangements."

Chu Zihang also fell silent.

For a moment he was a little confused.

He can understand to act together with Lu Mingfei, but what's the matter with obeying the arrangement?

It's as if the emperor called the general and said, I'm going to send you and Mr. Lu, the chief executive, to wipe out the traitors together.The general naturally knew that Eunuch Lu was looking at him as an army supervisor, and he had to fight by himself, but he was the one who received the credit, but still he could only accept the order to thank him.

But the problem is, now the emperor said that I want to send you and Eunuch Lu to wipe out the rebels. This time, Eunuch Lu will be in charge of the charge, and you will cheer for him and run the logistics behind...

Is this trying to kill Mr. Lu?

Does the school have a problem with him, or with Lu Gonggong?

"Understood." Chu Zihang said concisely.

He doesn't like arguing, it's still the same sentence, he is responsible for the action when the teacher decides.

Chu Zihang stood in front of the mirror with a face as cold as iron. After taking off his colored contact lenses, there was a golden gleam like will-o'-the-wisp floating in his pupils, revealing a ferocious look like a ghost.

If you look directly into his eyes at this time, you will definitely fall into the endless hell.

Lu Mingfei?

He was familiar with the name.

But this familiarity does not refer to his S-level "prestige", or the shot in Liberty Day, but the scene he witnessed in Shilan Middle School.

The rain crackled on the window, and the playground was completely white.

The torrential rain was unbelievably heavy. The weather forecast said that a typhoon was coming, with heavy rain and thunder.

And he didn't know until later that it was the coming of the king.

The coming of a king is bound to be accompanied by the wrath of heaven and earth.

That day on the football field, the ruts were everywhere, the turf was torn to pieces, and almost everyone was picked up, except myself and a junior high school student who was rejected by a female classmate.

That junior boy squatted under the eaves, staring blankly at the torrential rain, and watched the car that refused to carry him slide silently into the rain curtain until even the taillights disappeared under the rain curtain.

He saw him standing up, with his neck tilted and his head drooping, walking slowly along the eaves, so weak that he couldn't see.

Chu Zihang saw his back, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind.

Maybe I can give him a ride.

It's a pity that the poor kid didn't wait for him to stop him, so he wrapped his head with his coat and rushed into the grand rain curtain fiercely, fleeing in a panic, his back was lonely like a lost dog.

That was the first time Chu Zihang heard the name Lu Mingfei, and he never forgot it since then.

It wasn't until I entered Kassel College that I heard the name again.

Only then did Chu Zihang realize that it was also the sorrow of blood.

It turned out that during those years in Shilan Middle School, there was always a boy who was similar to me.

The reason why he has not forgotten this boy all these years may be because he has to recall all the details of that rainy night every night, or maybe it is because the boy's embarrassed back that day is exactly the same as himself in the rainy night...

Chu Zihang turned and pushed open the door of the closet, and opened the elongated tennis bag lying in the corner. The handle of the knife wrapped in black shark skin was tightly attached to the racket.

He held the handle of the knife, and the long knife was out of its sheath an inch, iron-blue light splashed out, and the icy breath rose rapidly along the wrist.

He held the knife, as if returning to that rainy night six years ago.

Chu Zihang slowly closed his eyes.

The bits and pieces of the relationship with that man flashed in my mind frame by frame.

……

on that night.

They were all homeless dogs.
