Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei's War Journey

Lu Mingfei carried the suitcase containing 100,000 yuan in cash and found a run-down little hotel to stay in.

Although the environment here isn't great, at least we have a place to stay today, and even this terrible environment is paradise compared to the Andes Mountains.

He locked the door, put the box on the bed, and then sat down wearily.

Today's experience was comparable to what happened in the Andes Mountains. First, I got into a fight and ended up in jail, owing 100,000 yuan. Then I moved and found the lost revolver. Next, I was surrounded by hundreds of members of the Black Snake Gang, and their leader made a bizarre apology and offered to recruit me.

Everything felt like a bizarre and fantastical dream.

His ordinary campus life shouldn't involve guns, police arrests, or association with thugs.

"What a nightmare." Lu Mingfei took out the pistol tucked in his waistband. As long as this gun was with him, he would really see ghosts every day, but he couldn't bear to throw it away again.

Without this gun, he wouldn't have been able to remain so calm and confident in the situation just now. Thinking this, he put the gun into the bedside table next to him, and then took out the gilded business card.

Should we go to the Gilded Banquet?

The benefits are obvious: high salary, the ability to save money quickly, the chance to travel to Chicago during winter break, and the chance to hear about the other side of the world in that diverse place.

However, the risks are equally enormous. Being completely bound to the Black Snake Gang and stepping into the gray area could lead to even more dangerous conflicts at any time. Yang Boxuan is no benevolent person, and there must be a deeper purpose behind his sincerity.

As Lu Mingfei held the gilded business card, Nuonuo's smile appeared in his mind.

He wanted to find her as soon as possible; studying and taking exams in a conventional way, waiting for the college entrance exam a year later, was just too slow.

Moreover, the restless power within him and the vengeful spear seemed to be pushing him toward an even more dangerous path.

"I've fucking become a psychopath and a monster." Lu Mingfei laughed self-deprecatingly.

His experiences in the Andes Mountains, Isaac's memories, and this strange gun all contribute to shaping him into a psychopath, a monster.

So many fights in one day, and even attempted murder.

If Nono is found, will his mental illness begin to recover with Nono's help?

After carefully hiding the box and business cards, Lu Mingfei lay on the hard bed. He didn't make a decision immediately; he needed to weigh things carefully.

We'll deal with the money in the box at the bank tomorrow, and we also need to check how much money is in the bank card my uncle gave me.

-----------------

As dawn broke again, Lu Mingfei first paid for two more days' worth of accommodation before heading to the bank with the suitcase and bank card.

He first opened a new bank card and deposited the 100,000 yuan into it. Yang Boxuan did not tamper with the money; it was all genuine banknotes.

He then inserted the bank card his uncle had given him into the ATM, entered the PIN his uncle had told him, and clicked to check his balance.

The bank card showed a balance of 53,000 yuan. He then started checking the transaction history of the card, but soon he burst out laughing.

The transaction records show that 120,000 yuan is deposited into this card every six months, which is 240,000 yuan a year. This year is the sixth year that he has been staying at his uncle and aunt's house, so the total is 1.44 million yuan.

Lu Mingfei attends a private elite school with very high tuition fees, but the annual tuition fee is at most 100,000 yuan.

Based on his daily expenses, at most ten thousand yuan would be spent on him a year. It can be said that half of the child support sent by his parents went into the pockets of his uncle and aunt.

Otherwise, with his uncle's meager salary as an ordinary office worker, he could not only maintain a seemingly respectable family life, but also allow Lu Mingze, that chubby boy, to attend the expensive Shilan School.

His gaze swept over the most recent transfer record, which was in July, for 120,000 yuan. Now it's only mid-September, and in less than three months, he only has 53,000 yuan left. The speed at which he spends money is astonishing. No wonder he couldn't come up with that 100,000 yuan before.

Lu Mingfei stared at the clear transaction records on the ATM screen, initially silent, then an extremely complex emotion erupted in his chest like a volcano.

He suddenly lowered his head, his shoulders began to shake uncontrollably, and he let out a burst of suppressed, almost manic laughter!

"Hahaha...hahaha...hahahaha!!!"

He laughed so hard he bent over, his whole body trembled, and he had to use his hands to support himself against the cold ATM machine to barely keep his balance.

If it weren't for this unexpected turn of events that landed him in jail and forced him to confront his uncle and aunt, he might never have known that his mysteriously disappeared parents were sending him such a huge sum of money every year.

But he lived a life of constant belittling and neglect.

Why?! Since she was willing to send so much money, why didn't she come back to see him even once in six whole years?! Not even once! Not even a single phone call!

He could no longer even remember what they looked like, nor their voices.

What do they take him for?! Someone they can completely ignore as long as they send him money regularly?!

Lu Mingfei's somewhat manic behavior startled the others in the bank. Everyone looked at the boy who was laughing so hard he couldn't stand up straight, but they didn't feel any joy in his laughter. Instead, they felt a deep sense of sorrow.

"Sir, are you alright?" A bank security guard cautiously approached Lu Mingfei and asked.

Lu Mingfei's laughter stopped abruptly.

He wiped the tears from his face with the back of his hand and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.

He looked up at the wary security guard and forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace.

"It's nothing, thank you. It's just... I suddenly remembered something."

He nodded to the security guard to indicate that he was really fine, then operated the ATM, took out a thousand yuan and put it in his pocket.

So he left the bank with two bank cards and 1,000 yuan in cash.

After leaving the bank, he didn't go to school but went to a nearby clothing store to pick out some clothes. He was wearing a faded and worn-out sweatshirt.

Today marks the first day of his new life, and he wants to embrace it with a fresh perspective.

Lu Mingfei walked into a clothing store that looked to be of medium quality. The sales assistant was a young girl.

When she saw Lu Mingfei walking in, wearing a faded old hoodie and with slightly messy hair, a moment of hesitation flashed across her face. However, her good professionalism made her immediately suppress her surprise, and she greeted him with a standard professional smile.

"Sir, what would you like to see?"

"Let me take a look." Lu Mingfei said, his eyes quickly scanning the clothes rack. He picked out a few clothes that Nuonuo had previously put together for him in a similar style, and then went into the dressing room.

When he came out again and stood in front of the dressing mirror, even he was stunned for a moment.

The boy in the mirror has a tall and straight posture. He is wearing a good quality dark gray crew neck knit sweater, paired with slim-fitting black casual trousers.

The clothes fit him perfectly, as if they were tailor-made for him, making his originally somewhat thin figure appear well-proportioned and upright.

His originally slightly messy hair, after being casually tousled a few times in the fitting room, now exuded a carefree and unrestrained charm.

The sales assistant was also visibly stunned; her professional smile turned into genuine surprise.

She never expected that the young man, who had walked in looking disheveled, would change so drastically after changing into suitable clothes. He not only became more handsome, but his entire demeanor underwent a complete transformation.

"This will do," Lu Mingfei said, looking at himself in the mirror.

"Yes, sir, this set is perfect for you!" the sales assistant exclaimed sincerely.

"Would you like to see a coat or shoes? We just received a few new pairs that should go well with your outfit."

Lu Mingfei nodded and then picked out a coat and a pair of new shoes.

After Lu Mingfei walked out of the clothing store carrying a bag of old clothes, he went straight to the trash can next to him and threw the bag in without hesitation.

"Goodbye, loser Lu Mingfei," he said silently to himself, bidding a final farewell to his past self.

Since we can't go back to the past, let's embrace a new life.
