Dragon Clan: Thought So Far.

Chapter 572: Far East Winter

She glanced at Lu Mingfei coldly, suppressing him severely with just one look. The man sighed and walked obediently to the side of the long oak table in the middle of the car and sat down.

Bunin showed an apologetic expression, patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder from behind, sighed helplessly, and then closed the door silently behind him.

"Why are you..." Lu Mingfei hesitated.

"Su Enxi captured the encrypted intelligence from Cuba, which was sent by Finkel. It used a very simple intelligence system that happened to be beyond Norma's recognition range." Ling did not look like he was explaining to Lu Mingfei why he appeared on this train. Instead, he looked like a judge in court with a criminal.

Lu Mingfei immediately realized that the simple intelligence system that could not be recognized by Norma was obviously a loophole left by EVA in the background of the academy's super artificial intelligence secretary.

The senior student was really smart and had thought of this very early on.

"What did Finkel say?" Lu Mingfei rubbed his hands, sat down beside the princess, and poured himself a cup of tea.

"He betrayed," Zero said.

Lu Mingfei was filled with righteous indignation: "Damn it, that loser with thick eyebrows and big eyes, Finkel, really betrayed our pure revolutionary friendship!"

"The target of rebellion is the academy..."

"I knew that we have a father-son relationship. Senior Brother Finger will definitely not leave me." Lu Mingfei clenched his fists. "The ones I raised with so many family barrels are indeed not ungrateful."

"He has a channel to get intelligence from inside the academy. Although some school directors have to obey the Gattuso family because of the regulations of the Abraham Bloodline Contract, your supporters still exist." Ling said, "The Executive Department has completely become an armed organization directly under the school board during the operation of Pompeii. Since you chose to refuse the academy's arrest, they have directly listed Finkel as a wanted person. Professor Schneider initially canceled this wanted order until he was also dismissed from his position. Finkel completely lost his protector and had to flee to Cuba."

Lu Mingfei felt bitter in his heart. He and Fingel quarreled with each other every day and ate pork elbows with cheap wine in the Bavaria-style Sunshine Restaurant. Fingel drank the red wine bought by Lu Mingfei and patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, my good brother. I will definitely stand by you at all times."

No one could have imagined that at this critical moment, although this guy could not provide much practical help, he was really willing to help.

This guy can stay in bed for a whole week on instant noodles, fried chicken, hamburgers and Coke. The academy keeps him like a mascot and he is happy with it. Now he is reduced to the remote countryside of Cuba and I don’t know if he can get used to it...

"He said that the school board had heard that after Professor Schneider stepped down, the executive department's pursuit of you has been stepped up, and even the hunting team that had already withdrawn from the historical stage has been invited out." Ling looked at Lu Mingfei, "They may not directly attack this train before Beowulf's patience is exhausted, but negotiations are inevitable... Bunin is a businessman, you can't expect him to have much integrity and bottom line. For a man like him, even his own life can be bought and sold, let alone you. As long as the college can offer a suitable price, he can leave you and the train on the broken tracks in Siberia at any time and let the school board use the Sword of God's Punishment to blow you to pieces in Siberia."

"But he said that before going to Lake Baikal, he would pass through various important places and bring the children of those government officials on the car to use as our shield." Lu Mingfei frowned.

"The promises made by politicians are even more ridiculous than those made by businessmen. They are also much more cold-blooded than businessmen. They just want a few offspring. As long as there are more benefits, they can marry more wives, find more women and give birth to more sons." Zero sneered, "Do you know what kind of promise the academy can make to Bunin? The weapons orders of the entire Western world can go to the hands of the Russian Ministry of Defense."

Alexander Bunin is the arms outsourcing company of the Russian Ministry of Defense. The world's largest arms sales market is located in the chaotic areas surrounding the Western world, including the Middle East, North Africa and even the Balkan Peninsula. Although Bunin's arms sales are quite broad, they are mostly concentrated in South Asia and areas covered by the Slavic language system.

If the school board is willing to pay some price to keep Brin out of Lu Mingfei's affairs, I think he will not refuse.

Since he began his escape, Lu Mingfei has rarely relied on his own strength to evade the academy's pursuit. When he was in China, he relied on the power of Lord Wa and orthodoxy, and when he came to Moscow, he relied on the influence of the Romanov family in the whole of Russia.

But once on this train, Lu Mingfei's greatest reliance has shifted from the Romanov family to Bunin.

"But what is your purpose in appearing here? Are you planning to take me away from Bunin's car?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Ling shook his head. "You still don't understand what my presence in Moscow means. Behind me stands the entire Romanov family, and the Romanov family's influence in Europe is no less than that of two or three school directors in the financial world. They control the syndicate, and I control the syndicate as well. Su Enxi can do the same as the school directors can promise Bunin."

Lu Mingfei almost understood that Her Royal Highness the Princess was planning to use herself as a hostage to tie up Bunin.

"He is an old fox. Although he is willing to help me for the sake of orthodoxy, I have not been able to bring him any substantial help after all." Lu Mingfei frowned, "But if you and I get into trouble in his car, Bunin's business will face a comprehensive crackdown by the Romanov family and Su Enxi. With his strength, can he survive this crackdown?"

Zero shook his head.

"Where's Sister Mai? Is she in this car too?"

"No, that's the second thing I want to tell you." Ling said. She put the yellow envelope in front of Lu Mingfei. The red clay stamp was still fresh, and there was a complex pattern on it.

Lu Mingfei had seen a similar pattern in Elizabeth Palace; it was the family emblem of the Romanov family.

"Senior sister was on the nuclear-powered icebreaker Imael when she was chasing the Far North when she was attacked by another icebreaker. The hull number of that icebreaker was also Yamal. It's not accurate to say it was an attack. That ship was caught in the ice storm and crashed into the Imael. Fortunately, Constantine and senior sister were on the same ship, so they didn't encounter a direct collision. But after the ice storm ended, a large number of black anacondas infected with dragon blood crawled out of the wreckage of the ship." Ling frowned slightly, "Those large numbers of dragon blood subspecies were mixed with Hydra from mythology. After the armed forces on the Imael eliminated all the subspecies and Hydra, they found Professor Schneider's body and a survivor who was still alive in the wreckage."

Lu Mingfei could imagine how critical the situation was just from a calm description. It was hard to imagine what would have happened if Constantine had not happened to be with Nono.

Whether it is an ice storm, a dragon subspecies, or Hydra, they are all the culprits that can cause a shipwreck.

As for the hull number being the same, Yamal, it can only be attributed to coincidence.

"Professor Schneider?" Lu Mingfei was stunned. From the information that the princess had just said, Professor Schneider should have been removed from his position as the head of the executive department by the school board. However, even so, given his physical condition, he should not be able to become a front-line executive department specialist, but would only be temporarily suspended from work at the Kassel Academy headquarters to recuperate. How did he die? How did his body appear in the Arctic?

"The college's database contains Professor Schneider's genetic samples. They dissected the body and compared them with the genetic samples. They were sure it was the same person." Ling looked into Lu Mingfei's eyes. "But this is exactly what's weird... According to the information passed on by our spies in the college, Professor Schneider has never left the Hilltop College. In other words, in two completely different corners of this world, two different Schneiders appeared at the same time... What do you think?"

Lu Mingfei's pupils contracted.

"Ye Sheng..." he said.

When executing the Kuimen Plan, he and his senior sister found Ye Sheng's body at the exit of the bronze door, but when they landed on the Moniah, it was clearly Ye Sheng who received them in person.

Later, the college's medical department also conducted genetic testing on the two bodies of Ye Sheng. Their genes were almost completely identical, even closer than clones, with no difference at all.

Later, on the rooftop of the Regent Hotel, Su Xiaoqiang was temporarily possessed by Norton's power, and Lu Mingfei learned the truth of the matter from the King of Bronze and Fire.

The intersection of world lines causes Ye Sheng, who has another causal destiny, to come into the logic of this causal relationship, so there will be two Ye Shengs appearing at the same time.

Could it be that the ship was also from another world line? And the body of Professor Schneider that Nono and his friends found was the dead Schneider from another world?

"You said they found a survivor from the wreckage of that ship?"

"You won't believe it if I tell you." Ling grabbed Lu Mingfei's wrist, her palm was cold. "The survivor is Pasi Gattuso..."

A great fear and terror instantly spread throughout Lu Mingfei's body like a needle piercing his tailbone. He clearly remembered that he had torn off the mask on Odin's face in the Nibelung in Hefei, revealing Percy's face underneath, then broke his neck and threw him into the abyss.

So this is also the result of the intersection of world lines?

"We all know that you have been looking for the Black King's bones and blood in order to resurrect Xia Mi." Ling's body leaned forward slightly, and Lu Mingfei could sense that deep in his heart there was a sleeping soul throbbing slightly.

Xia Mi woke up.

"Nono has pried the information about that thing out of Percy's mouth." Ling was almost face to face with Lu Mingfei, and their breathing was audible. "Long Legs has gone to deal with this matter. If nothing goes wrong, she will bring what you want when she catches up with us."

Lu Mingfei was originally still worried. If it was really Pasi Gattuso, would he still be the puppet controlled by the Odin mask?
But then he thought of Constantine who was following Nono. Although the child was just a first-generation being deprived of his power, he was the one who held power among the twins of the Bronze and Fire Kings. Even if he had lost the king's crown, he was still a monster who could roar at the world. Even Odin in his prime might not be able to defeat Constantine.

At this time, the steam locomotive was blasting its whistle and pulling the carriages out of Moscow at the highest speed.

It was early spring, and the white color of snow was still the main theme of the world. The vegetation on the mountains, whether it was birch or fir, was covered under snow and sand.

Lu Mingfei suddenly sighed. His original plan was indeed not to bring any outsiders on this uncertain journey to Siberia.

But now the matter has been settled. Perhaps Her Royal Highness the Princess had always intended to go with him, and she didn't even inform Lu Mingfei before getting in the car.

Under the swaying crystal chandelier, Ling's face was cold and serious. Her eyelashes were also a light golden color, so light that they were almost transparent. Lu Mingfei's appearance was reflected in her pupils under her eyelashes.

In a trance, Lu Mingfei recalled the days when they had meals in the Sunshine Restaurant at Kassel College. The princess in a T-shirt ate roasted pork feet with him in the candlelight swaying in the summer breeze. The cicadas outside the window chirped lazily. The whole world was quiet. There was no hunting group chasing them around the world, and there was no Ragnarok getting closer.

What a wonderful time.

It's a pity that I can't go back.

"There are no more than ten girls on the train this time, including your sister-in-law and Bunin's maid." Ling suddenly snorted coldly, "You won't hook up with anyone again, will you?"

Lu Mingfei blushed, knowing that the little girl was dissing the fact that his relationship with the little goddess had deepened into a thousand miles overnight...

But the situation was special and could not be generalized. At that time, my bloodline was too violent, and it seemed that it would lose control at any time...

"Anyway, as Bunin said, there will indeed be many more guests on this train on the journey to Lake Baikal. Most of them are descendants of Moscow dignitaries." Ling's demeanor suddenly returned to normal. She adjusted her skirt and hair and regained her indifferent expression. "It will do you no harm to get in touch with these people. If they are not abandoned in the end, the lifeblood of this country in the future will be in the hands of those children. You have me and the Romanov family behind you, and they will look up to you."

"You make it sound like I was born to be a gigolo." Lu Mingfei murmured.

"There's nothing wrong with being a gigolo. Being a gigolo by relying on one's own ability is something worth bragging about." Ling said. She patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder and glanced out the window inadvertently.

The hunting team of the academy was indeed following them like a shadow. As long as they showed any flaws, they would immediately surround them like hungry wolves. (End of this chapter)
