Chapter 122 The riot begins

Although Lu Mingfei still didn't understand Zero, but haha, at least this date was starting to become interesting.

And soon, they arrived at the second to last item of the date, the place Zero had specified.

Lu Mingfei turned to look at the heroine.

Not far away, Ling looked up at the snow, his silver hair was covered with tiny ice crystals, like a Russian doll sprinkled with frosting.

"Um. The auto show is in Hall B, right?"

Lu Mingfei stared at the tip of his shoe which was covered with white mist.

He still hasn't figured out why Zero asked him out, just like he doesn't understand why there are penguins in the Arctic Circle. It seems like a question that is destined to have no simple answer.

He doesn't even know the end of the universe, so of course he can't know this.

"Ah."

But Ling had no extra expression or words, he just led Lu Mingfei forward, as if he was sure that Lu Mingfei would not run away on his own.

No, not at all.

The revolving door cut off the wind and snow behind it.

The smell of gasoline mixed with the scent of leather hit her face, and the dome spotlight cast a fan-shaped shadow under Zero's eyelashes, making her, who was already petite and cute, even more calm and elegant.

But she seemed to like cars unexpectedly. Lu Mingfei felt that her pace quickened a little after she entered this space.

She stopped in front of the sports car and ran her fingertips over the chrome bumper. "Volvo 262C."

"You even understand this?" Lu Mingfei bent down to look at the nameplate. He knew nothing about cars. He was more familiar with mysterious license plates than cars. "I thought everyone had already done their best studying 'Alchemy and Chemistry' and 'Dragon Genealogy'."

“I’ve driven it before.”

Zero's suede boot heels tapped across the terrazzo floor as he pulled up in front of a red convertible, its red velvet seats dusted with artificial snow.

Lu Mingfei took another look at the production time of the car, and his ability to talk nonsense almost automatically became automatic.

"Ahaha? You couldn't have been born in 1977, could you?"

Lu Mingfei actually regretted it after he finished speaking. It wasn't funny at all, and he knew it, but he just couldn't help it. His habit of talking nonsense hasn't been cured yet.

But the next moment, he seemed to smell the cold fragrance of flowers and plants, which was the fragrance that Zero exuded when he passed by him - it was already engraved in his mind.

"Well, maybe." Zero said casually.

Hey?
What maybe?
Lu Mingfei turned his head suddenly, with a look of surprise on his face, but more of it was surprise.

He didn't expect that Zero wasn't angry at all.

By the way, if Zero was really born in 1977, how old would he be now?
I can't tell.

He turned his head and saw that the girl's pupils were covered with a mist like frozen soil, making it difficult to see clearly.

When the electronic music of "Jingle Bells" sounded in the exhibition hall, Lu Mingfei was staring at the hair swirl on the back of Ling's neck.

Zero, on tiptoe, inspected the engine compartment of a Volga GAZ-21. Her skirt swept over the exhaust pipe, revealing the lace trim of her black knee-high socks. "This is the Soviet Union's first mass-produced sedan," Zero's voice muffled over the hood. "They used prisoners to build the Trans-Siberian Railway to transport the parts."

Lu Mingfei was still daydreaming, and now he remembered the gossip on the Night Watch Forum, which said that Ling's background was unknown and he was a mysterious A-level hybrid.

In fact, this post is not very popular. If it weren’t for the fact that this is his date, Lu Mingfei probably wouldn’t have paid attention to it.

But looking at this mysterious woman, Lu Mingfei suddenly felt...
【Have we met somewhere before?】
-
"It's starting to get a little boring."

"Why haven't they started dating yet? Where's Bozui? Where did Bozui go? Wasn't he just bouncing? Why did he stop? Huh?"

A little further away, Caesar, who was hanging behind Lu Mingfei and Ling, hugged his chest and muttered continuously.

Next to him, Chu Zihang, who had received the boiled water from the car model, sipped his tea and responded, "They haven't reached that level yet."

"Then why am I here?"

"——As an experienced 'elder', if I missed the opportunity to guide Lu Mingfei at this time, and let him be deceived by this scumbag woman, wouldn't I be committing an even greater crime?"

"Don't repeat my words."

Caesar said indifferently.

Didn't you ask me to say 'why'?
Chu Zihang looked at Caesar with a calm and questioning gaze.

"Really?" Sighing softly, Chu Zihang took the time to check his phone. It was a text message from Susie, which roughly said something like, "After finishing today's affairs, do you still have time to go shopping together?"

Oh yes, Chu Zihang handed over all the affairs to Su Si.

This is not persecution. Chu Zihang is generally a very Asian person. It's just that there are some things that are not his forte, especially the communication with the internal members of the Lionheart Society. He just handed all these over to more suitable candidates.

Susie is a good girl. The 'good' here refers to her quality. Not only is she a good fighter, but she is also efficient in her work.

Faced with Su Si's request, Chu Zihang didn't want to refuse.

——Furthermore, Chu Zihang clearly remembered that Susie and Chen Motong, Caesar's girlfriend, were friends. Caesar didn't make an appointment with Nuonuo on Christmas, so Nuonuo probably just grabbed Susie to play with him.

Invite yourself in this situation as well.
Either Nuonuo added fuel to the fire, or he had something very important to say.

Or drunk?

There are many possibilities, but no matter which one, Chu Zihang believes that he needs to put an end to it - yes, Chu Zihang certainly vaguely sensed what Susie meant.

He is a reserved person, but not stupid. In fact, he is quite sensitive.

He just can't respond to feelings yet, and he feels that he and Susie are not very compatible.

He is a stubborn person, and Susie is too serious. According to the theory of complementarity, Chu Zihang feels that his future wife should be like Lu Mingfei, a talkative person who always makes him unable to help but complain and take care of her.

In short, Chu Zihang planned to make it clear to Susie - be clean and decisive, and never keep others hanging.

"I'm going back to Kassel."

"Is that so? Then I'll go back too."

Caesar breathed a sigh of relief, as if he suddenly had a change of heart.

"She doesn't look like a bad woman—let's just call it a day. It would be a bit rude to continue."

"Have you been watching this for a long time?"

"Shut up."
-
[Oh no! Caesar and Chu Zihang are ready to go back.]

【Long legs, are you ready? 】

[It’s necessary. It’s necessary.]

The spire of the bell tower pierced the snowy clouds. Jiude Mai stood on the side of the spire, slightly bent, her black tactical gloves stroking the frosted iris patterns. Below her sight, the students of Kassel were holding their important people and walking between the marble columns. They all had happy smiles on their faces and looked silly.

The golden eyes melted into two drops of liquid flame in the twilight.

"I don't want to see our little white rabbit. I haven't even repaid the favor yet."

Jude Mai put on a black lace mask and leaned forward slightly.

"Let's make quick work of this."

【Buzz! ——! ————————】

The next moment, an explosion sounded from the main gate of Kassel College, and a red flame swept towards the sky!

"Enemy attack?!"

"alert!"

Light burst out from the dome of Valhalla. The students, who had undergone military training and management, reacted quickly. They quickly stood back to back with the people around them and began to look for the enemy.

But they would never have thought that the explosion was just a means to attract attention.

The enemy has already arrived at the academy.

In an instant, Jiude Mai broke the ice and jumped down. Her figure passed by the stained glass window of the library, dragging a molten golden afterimage in the reflection of the snow, as fast as a ghost.

So - in a hotel far away from Kassel College, Su Enxi watched all of this through her notebook.

"I have to work harder too~"

The girl in the loose coat suddenly pulled her arms, as white as lotus roots, behind her head, and used her palms to twist her hair into a knife shape, exposing the back of her neck.

That delicate and mysterious [interface].

[Brain interface].

Next to the bed is a circular sleeping cabin that has been placed.

In fact, until now, there has been a problem that is common sense in Night City but is easily overlooked.

That's the hacker's weapon.

Hackers use their brains as weapons, but they cannot rely solely on their brains.

Chips, nervous systems, algorithmic systems, and fixed hacking devices - the last one is also the most important. Even if it is Batmos, the god of the Internet, his ability will be greatly reduced if he becomes a mobile hacker.

In other words, if you have professional equipment, even the hacker gap can be made up.

The girl rolled over and was caught in it. Along with the sound of air flow released from the metal pipe, the device also lit up.

"Let the fun begin."

【Drip drip drip————————】

In the return carriage, the noisy ringing of cell phones filled the air.

Musical ringtones, beeps, the ding of old telephones, the prompt sound of unknown numbers, dozens or even hundreds of different ringtones sounded at the same moment, making people feel like they were in a drum band that suddenly started playing.

Few people have ever heard so many cell phones ringing at the same time, it's so frightening.

Caesar and Chu Zihang, who were already on the bus, were a little confused because
Only their two cell phones didn't ring.

The other passengers on the bus changed their expressions the moment they saw the message.

【Sender: S】

[Red alert, police have received a report of a dangerous individual. This is a portrait of the suspect. If you see someone similar, please call the police immediately and avoid any further contact.]

Next, a portrait of the suspect will pop up automatically without clicking.

A handsome blond man, a cold-faced black-haired man, and a boy who looks dull but has some good looks.

That is
"What happened? Why did these people's faces change and they are looking at us?"

Caesar frowned and moved closer to Chu Zihang beside him.

".Their expressions changed from the moment they received the text message."

"Why, did you do something shameful recently and someone exposed it?"

"It's also possible that Finger posted our fan fiction from the Night Watch forum online."

"That's terrible."
-
While things were so chaotic outside, Lu Mingfei and Ling found a nearby restaurant to eat.

The decoration inside the restaurant is similar to the time when he met Chen Motong, but the person opposite has been replaced by a three-no girl - well, Lu Mingfei also likes this type.

The boy thought as he looked at the woman in front of him.

Dating a woman – for the first time.

In his eighteen years of life, he had never experienced such an activity. He even doubted whether he had really had a one-on-one communication with a girl for two hours.

Chen Wenwen? I'd only ever spent half an hour with her in the classroom at most.

Lucy? That's my sister-in-law.

So that's how it ends up. I have no experience with women at all.

but.

Perhaps because Ling's expression was too rare, Lu Mingfei didn't feel nervous at all about being with her.

No matter where he asked her to go, she would agree calmly. This would make people wonder if she had no feelings about the date itself, but if you look closely, you will find that her eyes never leave Lu Mingfei.

So this made Lu Mingfei feel more and more strange.

He had no idea what kind of connection he had with this A-rank legal loli that made her pay so much attention to him.
While Lu Mingfei was sipping the lemonade provided by the restaurant, Ling had already disappeared from the seat in front of him, using the excuse of going to the restroom.

Left on the table was her cell phone.

".Mobile phone."

Lu Mingfei actually has a lot of things he wants to know.

【Why would you ask yourself out? 】

【Why did you come here? 】

【What kind of person is Zero? 】

Just as Lu Mingfei was thinking about this——

And at this moment——

【Click】

Suddenly, the warm glow of the festive atmosphere was replaced by darkness. The temporarily retained image information caused his brain to go blank. Lu Mingfei instinctively took the chair behind him, did a backflip, and then lay on the ground to prepare for the missile impact. The rotating magnetic field spread out dozens of meters with him as the center.

But there was no enemy attack.

"power failure?!"

"what happened!?"

"It seems to be out of service outside too. Is it a problem with the signal tower?"

"What's the matter? Today is Christmas!"

"Just because it's Christmas, those drunk homeless people are causing trouble again, right?"

America is a magical country, known as the lighthouse, with advanced technology and a not-so-comprehensive level of education.

The polarization is so severe that it is hard to imagine. It is not only the legendary "Florida" that has these geniuses, but America is full of them.

A drunk man stripped naked and rushed to kill the signal tower with a bottle of wine - although this was a bit strange, it was still acceptable.

Lu Mingfei got up from the ground and started to think about the problem after confirming that there was no enemy attack.

Sudden regional power outage?

Although Lu Mingfei really didn't want to be the guy with an excess of consciousness, objectively speaking, this seemed to be directed at him - at himself, the only "special individual" present.

What is the purpose? !

Could it be that——————

Lu Mingfei.
He looked at the phone that Zero had left on the dining table.

"Lu Mingfei!"

Less than thirty seconds passed and Zero left the bathroom and came to his side.

She picked up her phone and checked it quickly, without any unnecessary emotion on her face.

"This is likely an attack directed at us. The other Cassel students outside may have also been hindered to some extent. However, there was no direct aggressive behavior. Just in case, let's leave here and return to Cassel Academy."

There was absolutely nothing wrong with Zero's appearance and speech.

Lu Mingfei immediately nodded in agreement.

"Ah."

The two of them quickly walked out of the restaurant, followed by Lu Mingfei.
His expression was somewhat complicated.
