Dragon Clan: Restart your life
Chapter 286 Friendship
Sunlight diffuses through the clouds into every corner of the city.
The water in the streets has long been drained, but the summer rain that comes from time to time still makes people in this city wary.
But no matter what, the city of Tokyo returned to its orderly appearance a month later.
Caesar and Lu Mingfei were squatting on the roadside, holding hamburgers and Coke in one hand. The sun shone through the green shade, and the cherry blossoms on the roadside fell around them in the wind.
"Aren't the people of Tokyo curious about the cherry blossoms that have bloomed twice?" Caesar took a sip of iced Coke.
Before coming to Japan, he never imagined that he would be squatting on the roadside with a cheap and unhealthy hamburger and Coke like this, watching the pedestrians coming and going.
This was completely inconsistent with the education he had received. To put it bluntly, this was something only civilians would do.
But he felt unprecedentedly relaxed and happy. He didn't know whether it was the refreshing ice cola or the fact that he had finally set foot in the wilderness of freedom.
"Boss, your Chinese has improved a lot." Lu Mingfei couldn't help but be surprised.
"That's okay." Caesar's eyes followed the flying skirt of the girl on the bicycle all the way north, and happened to collide with Lu Mingfei's eyes.
This is a straight green path. The sun is shining today and it is a good and breathable day. The girls ride bicycles together through the green shade. They are wearing beautiful plaid skirts, and spots of sunlight fall on their skirts.
Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows at him, and Caesar raised his eyebrows not to be outdone.
"You came back last year?" Caesar emphasized the word "come back" in particular.
"Yes, it was almost a year since my birthday last summer." Lu Mingfei nodded, thinking about how fast time flies, almost a year has passed.
"Then you went to find Chu Zihang?"
"Well, as you know, senior brother and I are from the same place."
Caesar raised his eyebrows and said, "When were you planning to come to me?"
"After Tokyo." Lu Mingfei scratched his head, "You know, you before coming to Japan and you after coming to Japan are two different people. Before coming to Japan, you didn't take me seriously at all, and I don't care about you either. He’s just a rich, bratty student council president.”
Caesar said dumbly: "Aren't you afraid that I will be angry if you are so direct?"
"Tell the truth." Lu Mingfei took a bite of his burger, "At least you would never squat on the roadside with me and eat KFC like you do now."
"Well... to be honest, this is my first time eating KFC." Caesar glanced at the burger in his hand, "It seems pretty good?"
Lu Mingfei smiled and said, "Do you still remember the time I took Erika to Umezuji Town?"
"Of course." Caesar also smiled, "I wasn't the one covering you that time. You had no chance to let that girl go."
"How did you guess that I was going to let Eriki go home?"
"Chu Zihang also asked this question at the time. He also said that we were co-conspirators. I told him that co-conspirators must have been discussed in advance. Our crime can only be regarded as an accidental joint crime." Caesar shrugged and pointed. Eyes slowly said, "Eyes are the windows to the soul. I can tell by looking at your eyes. That look of sudden determination is not something a bastard can have."
Lu Mingfei said happily: "I still remember you bragging to me about your eloquence in persuading senior brothers afterwards, saying that joining the student union was one of the wisest choices in my life."
"It's a fact. That guy Chu Zihang is actually very clever sometimes. To be honest, after knowing Xia Mi's identity, I was surprised that you could really bring Chu Zihang and Xia Mi together." Caesar patted He patted his head and said, "That guy is very stubborn most of the time and always has one thing in mind. I can tell by looking at his eyes that this guy has been prepared to die for that thing."
"Boss, you really understand your senior brother."
"Of course, we are old enemies. How could you not understand your enemy?" Caesar shrugged.
"Boss, what do you think of me?" Lu Mingfei stepped forward curiously, looked into Caesar's eyes, and saw his own reflection in those blue eyes.
Caesar stared into his eyes and smiled: "When do you think I regarded you as my friend in the last life?"
"Um, after Tokyo?"
"Why didn't you say that I considered you a friend?" Caesar said angrily.
"We experienced a lot together in Tokyo. According to your logic, men become comrades after fighting side by side." Lu Mingfei spread his hands.
"It's not just that simple, it's also about being offensive. At least it can't be a bastard." Caesar said calmly.
Lu Mingfei blinked and probed: "You mean, after I betrayed you and sent Eri back to the Sheqi family."
"Maybe it's a little earlier, such as the small town called Chizuru." Caesar said softly, "Do you still remember the bad things you said when you were caught by the monkey-faced man after the real accident?"
"Hey, I can't forget this. I was actually quite scared at that time. I felt like I was going to die in the next second. I felt that I should kneel down and beg for mercy and maybe survive, but I couldn't do it. I even felt That’s the best shit I’ve ever said in my life.”
The smile on Lu Mingfei's face gradually faded, remembering that sad past.
Caesar raised his head and smiled: "Yes, these are the things that really made me approve of you in the last life. It doesn't mean that we came to Japan together and fought side by side. We are friends. People who I, Caesar, approve of must have their own pride. . Before those things, I saw you as just an ordinary guy. I don’t know why the principal rated you as S-level, but at that time I felt that you were unworthy, both in terms of ability and virtue, but after coming to Japan I have gradually changed my view on you. A man can be incompetent, but he must never make a decision that will make him hate himself. In the last life, you did a great job, whether it was in Chizuru Town or in Umezu Temple Town when you let that girl go, especially in the second life. Two things, you made a decision that I don’t even have the courage to make, so how can I not help you?”
"Is Aso really...the one you sent abroad?" Caesar finally asked softly.
"Um."
"Thanks."
"Friends don't need to say thank you."
"Are all friends like this?"
"I don't know about others, but we are like this." Lu Mingfei grinned.
"Okay, I understand." Caesar snapped his fingers, "Do you know about Nono?"
"Forehead……"
Caesar suddenly turned his head and looked at Lu Mingfei suspiciously: "Why did you hesitate for so long?"
"Actually, it was my suggestion that Senior Sister go to the Arctic Circle." Lu Mingfei said sarcastically.
"...?"
"Boss, I know you are in a hurry, but don't be anxious yet!" Lu Mingfei said quickly, "Everything is under control!"
Caesar stared at him with an unkind expression and remained silent for the time being, waiting for his answer.
"Don't worry, I have arranged excellent bodyguards for Senior Sister, and I have also left some hidden tricks for her. Nothing will happen for the time being."
"Why leave this matter to her?" Caesar said solemnly.
"Because senior sister is the best candidate." Lu Mingfei said seriously without avoiding his gaze, "Believe me, I won't let anything happen to senior sister. We have to hold a wedding together."
Caesar stared at him for a long time, then slowly looked away, and said after a long silence: "I also want to go to the Arctic Circle."
"Okay, but not now." Lu Mingfei said, "Boss, you have to go back to the family first and find out who is hiding behind the scenes."
"I will do this." Caesar took a deep breath and said, "My father, Patsy, and my uncle Frost are all dead, right?"
Lu Mingfei nodded silently, knowing what Caesar was confirming.
"Very good, just missing three targets." Caesar stood up and the Coke cup was accurately thrown into the trash can on the roadside. "I'm going to leave first. When are you going to leave?"
"It's just these two days, I'll see you back at school."
"Okay, see you back at school. By the way, do you want me to give you a gift for your birthday?"
"It doesn't matter what you mean, Eriyi said she wanted to help me celebrate my birthday."
"ok."
…
…
Italy, Rome, sunny morning.
In an old castle on the outskirts, Frost, the acting head of the Gattuso family, was hosting bankers from all over the world for an Italian-style breakfast, chatting and laughing happily at the table.
They are talking about a plan of up to $22 billion to invest in undersea natural gas mines in the North Sea of Scotland, and the Gattuso family obtained the mining rights late last year. It is estimated that by 2014, the tax revenue paid to the British government by the gas mine will reach US$7 billion per year, and the Gattuso family's return will be several times this. Banks around the world hope to invest in this project and get a share of the profits.
This was a very satisfying breakfast. This is how big business should be negotiated. In Frost's view, only small businessmen would slap the table and glare during negotiations, while the real people in power finalized cooperation in calm conversations.
Frost told jokes all morning, making several female bankers laugh.
Patsy appeared quietly behind him and whispered: "Sir, there is important news."
Frost's eyes narrowed slightly, and he specifically told Patsy to notify him once Caesar returned.
"It looks like I'm going to invite some of you to lunch." Frost smiled and stood up, "Sorry, excuse me, it's an important matter related to the family heir. If you don't mind, you can go out and play two rounds of golf."
The bankers showed their understanding very gracefully. Some people joked that it was an issue with the engagement of the heir to the Gattuso family?
After entering the soundproof office, Frost couldn't wait to ask: "Caesar is back?"
"The young master is on the plane coming back and is expected to arrive in the evening." Patsy replied.
"He should have come back a long time ago, he should not have gone to Tokyo at all!" Frost said coldly, "This is all thanks to Angers and my incompetent brother!"
Patsy was silent.
Frost wandered around the room and suddenly asked: "How is Friedrich von Long's condition?"
"According to our tracking, he has escaped from the pursuit of the North American hybrids and killed two of their elite teams," Passi said.
"There are indeed many secrets hidden behind this old thing." Frost narrowed his eyes.
"You have suspected him for a long time?"
"Isn't this a matter of course?" Frost sneered. "The fact that he did not hesitate to betray the entire secret party only shows that the strength of the people behind the scenes will never be inferior to the secret party, and what they can give him is far beyond Owned by the Secret Party."
"Should we..."
"No!" Frost interrupted Patsy without hesitation, "Don't do anything unnecessary. We don't need to follow up on the bet at the moment. We just need to wait for the result. When Caesar comes back, ask him to come to me. I have something to say to him."
Patsy hesitated: "If you want to ask about specific things happening in Tokyo, the young master may not cooperate with you."
When speaking these words, Patsy recalled for no reason the Caesar he had seen on the sea. His eyes were as blue and as deep as the ocean behind him, unable to see the bottom, swallowing up everyone who tried to understand him. .
At that moment, he suddenly felt that the young master had become so strange.
"I'm his uncle!" Frost slammed his fist on the table. "I don't need him to cooperate with me. I don't even need him to obey now! But he must understand our love for him!"
Patsy didn't answer.
Frost quickly adjusted his mood, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "Is there any news about my brother?"
"After the head of the Pompeii family learned that the young master was fine, he went to XZ to participate in the Lamaist 'Spiritual Journey' charity event..."
Frost was expressionless: "I suddenly found that my tolerance for him was rising again and again. When I heard the news, I didn't even feel angry."
Patsy suddenly said: "Someone from the school board has contacted you and wants to know your opinion on Principal Angers."
"Understood? After the family tried to remove Angers last year, our relationship with Angers was tantamount to a break. Angers would never leave us any room. We don't need to leave room for him." Frost waved his hand, "Impeachment The plan goes ahead to cause him enough trouble even if it doesn't bring him down for the time being."
"By the way." Frost suddenly remembered something, "Is Chen Motong missing?"
"Yes, it seems that he disappeared while traveling." Patsy said.
Frost shook his head wordlessly and said: "Contact me the head of the Chen family and make an appointment for dinner. I want to have a good chat with the head of the Chen family."
"Okay, sir."
"Also, send someone to XZ to kidnap my brother back from that damn Trumpeter Cult!"
"Understood, what is your statement this time?"
"The old people want to see him." Frost said calmly.
Percy was silent for a moment.
He knew very well who the old people Frost was talking about. In front of those people, Angers was just a young man.
They live in the cryogenic ward all year round, some of them are over 300 years old, and they survive to this day relying on their extremely powerful dragon blood and medical technology.
They are the precious wealth of the Gattuso family and they are also the ones in power. Whenever the situation is on the verge of getting out of control, they will be awakened from dormancy and drag oxygen bottles to family meetings. Their decisions can sometimes overturn a whole family. Small country.
Patsy was fortunate enough to be summoned once. Because of his special status, the attitude of the old people was very kind.
"As you command, I will bring the head of the Pompeii family back as soon as possible." Passy bowed and retreated out of the house.
After Patsy left, Frost sat alone behind the desk. He opened the drawer and found a photo lying inside.
Frost's fingertips brushed against the photo.
The photo shows blue sky, white clouds and endless green grass. A young boy is riding on the neck of a middle-aged man, who is riding a tall black horse. The boy's smile is brighter than the sun in the sky.
At that time, there was no hatred in those ice-blue pupils, and there was no stubborn arrogance on the little face.
Frost fell into a rare long silence.
