Chu Zihang was taken aback: "Is that alright?"

"Of course, here you go," the chef said, handing over a knife and placing a piece of tuna sashimi on it.

Chu Zihang took the knife, his eyes focused, and the blade sliced ​​diagonally into the fish, leaving a perfectly even slice of sashimi.

"Beautiful!" Chef Yamada clapped. "This young man has talent!"

Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded: "Senior brother, you have this skill too?"

"I cook at home occasionally," Chu Zihang said casually.

Xia Mi chuckled to herself, "Senior brother's hidden attribute is being a stay-at-home husband? I think he could go to Japan to become a host and slice sashimi."

"Then forget it," Chu Zihang thought, still not wanting to work as a gigolo.

The last dish was tamagoyaki, a slightly sweet egg roll that brought the meal to a close, and everyone leaned back in their chairs with satisfaction.

"Thank you for the hospitality," Angers said to Chef Yamada.

The chef smiled and said, "Mr. Angers always brings very interesting guests."

Stepping out of the store, Lu Mingfei patted his round belly and exclaimed, "I've never eaten such delicious sushi in my life."

Xia Mi stretched and said, "Every shop owned by someone the principal knows is delicious!"

Frilian was carrying a takeout box; Angers had specially packed one for her.

Angers lit a cigar, and the smoke rose in wisps.

"Let me see. Sleibnir will arrive in three hours, and we can go back to the academy tonight."

Chapter 75 Sleibnir

On the tarmac, the Slebniz, the private plane of Principal Angers, sat quietly, its wings bearing the emblem of the Kassel College.

Lu Mingfei, dragging his suitcase, yawned: "Principal, how long is our flight this time?"

Angers straightened his cuffs and smiled, "About an hour and a half, you can take a nap."

"An hour and a half?!" Lu Mingfei's eyes widened. "Isn't that several times faster than taking the train?"

“For a private jet, speed is the most important thing,” Angers patted him on the shoulder. “Besides, our pilot is a former American Air Force ace test pilot.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than a man wearing sunglasses and with a toothpick in his mouth walked out. "Hey, Principal, the weather's nice today, perfect for flying."

Lu Mingfei stared at him for two seconds, then lowered his voice: "Principal, is that a toothpick in his mouth?"

“Just toothpicks,” Angers said calmly. “He also really likes to drink.”

"Then you still dare to hire him?!" Lu Mingfei exclaimed in shock. Wasn't he afraid of crashing the plane?

Angers laughed heartily: "Of course I dare, because I canceled his parachute."

Xia Mi listened with great interest, giving a thumbs up: "When it comes to ruthlessness, it has to be you, Principal."

Chu Zihang boarded the plane with his luggage, expressionless, ignoring the conversation.

Since Angers dared to hire them, it means the pilots are highly skilled, so there's no need to worry about a crash.

Slebniz has a nice interior with leather seats, solid wood tables, and even a bar counter.

As soon as Frillie boarded the plane, she nestled into her window seat and gazed at the clouds outside.

"How does it compare to a regular plane?" Lu Mingfei sat down next to her and put down their suitcases.

"Well, how should I put it?" Frilian thought for a moment, "It's much faster than a regular airplane, and more stable than a magic flying carpet."

Lu Mingfei: "You have magic flying carpets where you live? It sounds like a fairy tale."

"Yes, but Shutark always gets seasick and throws up after every flight."

"I've heard you mention Shutark a lot, who is he?"

“My companion, a very capable but clumsy warrior,” Frilian said, resting her chin on her hand and gazing into the distance. “And Philon, that child may be young, but he has a high talent for magic.”

Lu Mingfei became interested: "Hey, can you tell me about your adventures?"

"Okay."

Frilian began to slowly recount her journey with Shutark and Philon.

How to defeat the remnants of the Demon King, how to find the magic book in the ancient ruins, and how Shutark was kicked out of the tavern by the owner for eating too much.

Lu Mingfei listened with great interest, occasionally interjecting, "Do all the demons in your world like to say lines like 'Foolish humans'?"

Frillie tilted her head: "No, they usually just take action, and there's basically no way to communicate."

Lu Mingfei: "Okay, that's quite pragmatic."

On the other side of the cabin, Xia Mi pulled a folding chess set from her luggage and slapped it on the small table: "Senior brother, want to play a game? I'm the chess king of the courtyard."

Chu Zihang looked up at her and nodded: "Okay."

Xia Mi smiled and arranged the chess pieces: "Let's make it clear first, the loser has to grant the winner one request."

Chu Zihang: "Okay."

Lu Mingfei glanced at her secretly and whispered to Frilian, "I bet my senior brother will win."

Frillie raised an eyebrow: "Why? Didn't Xia Mi say she was the Chess King?"

"Because Xia Mi's chess skills are very abstract."

As it turned out, Lu Mingfei's judgment was correct.

Xia Mi started with a "I'll just wander around, you can just look around" tactic, losing a chariot and a horse within five steps, causing Chu Zihang's brows to furrow even more.

"Xia Mi," he couldn't help but ask, "why did your horse turn a corner when it was walking in the 'sun' shape?"

Xia Mi declared confidently, "Because my horsemanship is light-footed!"

Chu Zihang: "Huh?"

Angers, who was looking at the college's management plan sent by the board of directors, couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this.

Xia Mi continues her fantastical chess journey:

The elephant crosses the river, "My elephant can swim."

The scholar leaves the Nine Palaces, meaning "the scholar has been turned against his cause."

Finally, they even used Chu Zihang's pawn to capture his general, revealing, "This pawn was actually a spy!"

Chu Zihang was silent for three seconds, then slowly raised his head: "You win."

Chu Zihang couldn't quite keep up with Xia Mi's thought process in this nonsensical chess game.

Xia Mi cheered, "Great! Then my request is..."

"Anything but women's clothing is fine," Chu Zihang interrupted in advance.

Xia Mi pouted: "Tch, boring."

Angers sat in the front row, holding a stack of documents in his hand, occasionally making marks on them with a pen.

Lu Mingfei leaned over and glanced at it; it was all about the budget allocation for Kassel College for the next academic year.

"Principal, are you going to cut the Lionheart Society's funding?" Lu Mingfei asked, pointing to one of the lines.

Angers smiled: "No, it's an increase of 20% in the budget for the Lionheart Society. The Lionheart Society has been performing well recently."

"What about the student council?"

Angers: "Keep it as it is."

Lu Mingfei: "Principal, well, I've been doing quite well lately."

"for example?"

"Didn't we just film Seven Deadly Sins together?"

Angers exclaimed "Oh!" and patted him on the shoulder: "What do you want?"

"Could you please reinstate Fingel's student card limit? He keeps swiping my card, and my savings can't take it anymore."

"Small things."

With a 'bang,' the cockpit door opened, and the pilot poked his head out: "Principal, would you like a whiskey? It's my ten-year-old vintage."

Angers didn't even look up: "If you drink now, I'll throw you down."

The pilot shrugged: "Okay, I'll drink it myself then."

Lu Mingfei was terrified: "Principal! Look, he's really going to drink it!"

Angers calmly replied, "Don't worry, he wouldn't dare."

The pilot grinned: "Just kidding. I can hold my liquor really well. Back when I flew the F-16, I would drink whiskey while doing stunts."

"It's a miracle the American Air Force didn't fire you."

"No, they fired me because I was drunk and crashed the testing machine into the building."

Lu Mingfei now has a strong suspicion that only Angers can handle this kind of guy.

As dusk fell, Frilian fell asleep by the window, and Lu Mingfei covered her with a blanket.

Xia Mi's chess battle with Chu Zihang ended with Chu Zihang's "defeat," and now she is smugly planning how to make Chu Zihang run around all day.

Angers closed the file, rubbed his temples, and looked out at the sea of ​​clouds.

"Principal, aren't you going to take a break?" Lu Mingfei asked in a low voice.

Angers smiled and said, "I'm getting old, so I can't sleep well."

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Principal, why did you hire such a pilot? There were clearly more reliable options."

Angers looked toward the cockpit and said softly, "Because he is like me, trapped by the past."

Lu Mingfei was taken aback.

“Moreover,” Angers changed the subject, “he was indeed a genius pilot, able to land safely even while intoxicated.”

"Principal, your reason is too casual!"

Angers laughed heartily, filling the cabin with a joyful atmosphere.
