Chapter 212 Erii Joins the Team

The metal gate was a full twenty centimeters thick. Lu Mingfei was amazed that Uesugi Kotetsu was able to cut a small door out of the metal gate with his Japanese sword.

"Master Yue, what's wrong?"

Lu Mingfei looked at Uesugi Yue with some confusion. After Uesugi Yue led him through the metal door, he stood there motionless.

"Ok?"

"this place?"

Uesugi stood up straight, tense, while Lu Mingfei remained relaxed, looking around the room, which was unusually well-lit.

"The Snake Clan is truly powerful, having decorated such a paradise inside the building."

Uesugi Kotsugu knew the story of Peach Blossom Spring.

If you ignore the medical equipment they saw earlier, it really is a paradise. Even with the massive invasion of the Deadpools, this place remains unaffected by the outside world.

The air here has a relaxing scent that doesn't irritate the sense of smell, and the odor isn't very strong. Uesugi Koshi's wildly beating heart gradually calmed down with his breathing, thanks to the special chemical composition of the air.

"..."

Uesugi walked forward, his feet on a wooden walkway, with wooden sliding doors on both sides.

Reaching the end of the path, Uesugi Koshi opened the sliding door at the end, revealing a traditional Japanese room with tatami mats on the floor. Uesugi Koshi took off his shoes and entered the room.

Lu Mingfei saw that Uesugi had taken off his shoes and also entered the room barefoot.

"Is that the sound of water? Who's taking a bath in there?" Lu Mingfei had very sharp ears.

Uesugi Koshi knelt on the tatami mat, lowered his head, and quietly waited for the person in the inner room to finish bathing.

"Master Yue, do you know who lives here?"

Lu Mingfei sat down next to Uesugi Yue and asked him some questions out of curiosity.

“I don’t know who lives here, but I can probably guess,” Uesugi Kotsushi replied.

"Guess who it is?" Lu Mingfei tilted his head and looked at Uncle Uesugi.

"It's Erii."

"..."

Upon hearing Erii's name, Lu Mingfei immediately straightened his head and lowered it even further than Uesugi Satsuki.

They actually came to Uncle Uesugi's daughter's bedroom.

Moreover, their daughter was taking a bath inside.

Lu Mingfei awkwardly gripped the tatami mat with his toes.

“Master Yue…” Lu Mingfei lowered his head.

"what happened?"

“I don’t think you’re very close to your daughter,” Lu Mingfei said.

Isn't it obvious?

What happened at your house?

"It's nothing. Genjiro and Erii were both conceived through IVF. Before this year, I didn't even know I had a son and a daughter," Uesugi Kotetsu honestly replied to Lu Mingfei.

"What!" Lu Mingfei turned his head in shock to look at Uesugi Kotetsu.

"Surprised?"

“When I told your principal, he was also very surprised,” Uesugi Kotsushi said.

"So, Yuan Zhisheng never knew who his father was from a young age?" Lu Mingfei started gossiping.

"Hmm..." Uesugi Kotsushi nodded slightly.

“I have a fellow student named Zhisheng, and we’ve talked about this kind of thing.”

"As far back as he can remember, he grew up in a family that specialized in adopting children, and his adoptive father lived off the child support payments from the adopted children."

"Child support?" Lu Mingfei asked, puzzled.

"It's strange."

“I also found it strange, but it doesn’t seem strange that he was taken back to the Snake Clan after graduating from high school,” Uesugi Kotsu said.

“When I was in my twenties, I lived the life of a stud in my family. The most important thing every day was to have children.”

"..." "I... I'd better not say anything..."

Uesugi's eyes dimmed.

It concerns that period of history, and Lu Mingfei is a Chinese from Yan.

He himself still can't face it, so how could he dare to tell Lu Mingfei?

If Lu Mingfei finds out, he'll make him commit seppuku (ritual suicide by disembowelment). Will he commit seppuku, or will he commit seppuku?

"Oh……"

“My family… my parents left me at my uncle’s house when I was in the third grade of elementary school.”

“They are all S-rank. My birth was witnessed by a bunch of people, including the principal. They were afraid that my mother would give birth to a dragon.” Lu Mingfei said with some gloom.

"I was also suddenly pulled into this world before graduating from high school."

The sound of water in the inner room stopped, and a few minutes later, Uesugi Erii came out dressed as a shrine maiden.

She saw two somewhat familiar people kneeling outside, chatting quietly.

Erii Uesugi tilted her head and looked at the two of them.

In Lu Mingfei and Uesugi Yue's down-looking field of vision, they saw a pair of feet.

Erii found a notebook and pen, knelt down and began to write and communicate with the two.

"Hello, Ms. Erii, I am Lu Mingfei..."

As Lu Mingfei was introducing himself, Uesugi Erii suddenly reached out and lifted Lu Mingfei's drooping head, adjusting the angle so she could observe him more easily.

She had seen this face before.

Erii Uesugi smiled at Lu Mingfei and then reached out and ruffled Lu Mingfei's hair into a messy bird's nest.

Erii withdrew her hand, and then looked curiously at Uesugi Kotsugi.

[Batman uncle?]

Erii Uesugi wrote in her notebook and pushed it in front of Etsushi Uesugi.

Hi, it's me.

Uesugi Koshi raised his head, trying very hard to hold back his tears.

“…” Lu Mingfei watched from the side.

At that moment, he realized that Uesugi Kotetsu had only recognized Genjiro and his son, but not Uesugi Erii.

Why would someone who clearly loves their daughter the most refuse to acknowledge her as their daughter?
Batman...

Lu Mingfei imagined the story behind it, and it was probably about Uesugi Kotetsu secretly protecting Erii like Batman.

Lu Mingfei was almost moved to tears by his own imagination.

“Miss Uesugi, it’s not safe here anymore. Let’s leave together!” Lu Mingfei said to Uesugi Erii.

Go outside, go even further outside!

Erii Uesugi wrote.

[Go out and play while your brother is away]

"it is good."

Uesugi Kotsuki stood up abruptly.

Lu Mingfei looked up at Uesugi Yue. He felt as if Uncle Uesugi had transformed into a Super Saiyan 2, with golden flames and lightning crackling around him.

Erii also stood up with Uesugi Kotsushi, raising her fist happily.

Erii joins the team!

Lu Mingfei saw that Uesugi Erii was very happy and wrote a sentence in her notebook that had a very Japanese RPG game style and held it in front of her chest.

"Hmm, very imposing." Uesugi Kotsuki smiled at Erii.

“My profession is a samurai, paving the way for you from the front. Erii, your profession is a shrine maiden, responsible for boosting morale from the rear. Lu Mingfei is in charge of the team's logistics; all the trivial matters are left to him,” Uesugi Etsu said.

"set off!"

【Set off!!】
