Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 39: Old Friend (8)

Dragon Raja 5

“He can eat and sleep, and he’s more like a pig than me. I really can’t see any ghost in him,” said Lu Mingfei.

“It’s the result of the causal line being forcibly modified, and the word spirit that modified the causal line is still effective.” Nono said, “If we understand the causal relationship in the world as a network, when the causal line is forcibly modified, holes will appear on the network, and we have to find a way to fill these holes. Chu Zihang was a very important person in Cassell Academy. He was erased, so Abbas was used to repair it. The causal relationship that originally belonged to Chu Zihang was transferred to him. It was Abbas who had been competing with Caesar, and it was also Abbas who had feelings for Xiao longnu.”

“This is too much. It’s one thing to rob someone of their life, but you’re also robbing their girl…” Lu Mingfei suddenly stopped talking here, because he remembered that the girl in front of him was also engaged to someone.

“I’m now very curious about what Abbas is,” said Nono.

“Could it be that Abbas is the one who is causing trouble? For example, Abbas is actually a dragon king, or simply Odin. He wiped out his senior brother, replaced senior brother with himself, and then put a mask on senior brother and placed him in the Nibelung to replace himself.” Lu Mingfei started thinking.

“It’s reasonable, but it’s too reasonable and too simple. If the other party is the one who manipulates cause and effect, I don’t think he would make the situation so simple.” Nuonuo pulled out the memory card from the camera.

“What’s the point of recording these?” Lu Mingfei asked.

“Find a locker and store it in Tokyo. Caesar should be able to find it.”

Lu Mingfei’s heart skipped a beat. It turned out to be a letter for Caesar. He had been on the road for so long that he instinctively avoided thinking about Caesar. But in fact, Caesar was always there.

“I hope this thing come in handy,” Nono said softly, looking at the memory card in his hand. “If this video is the only way to convey information, we’ll probably both be dead.”

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood what Nuonuo meant. If they couldn’t find the final answer, then at least leave a clue for someone they could trust. Caesar was indeed a reliable person in this regard. If he saw this video, he would definitely find a way to find the answer.

However, they cannot contact Caesar now. Any external contact may expose their location, and Caesar may take the opportunity to capture them.

EVA’s judgment of Caesar is very accurate. As a fiancé, he will definitely trust and protect his fiancée. As a school director, he will also fulfill his duties and uphold his justice. These two points are not contradictory to him.

“You eat something. I’m going to go downstairs and take a shower. I feel like I’m going to smell like shit and I’m about to grow hair.” Lu Mingfei stood up. “There’s still four hours until dawn. I have to look for a way to get to the Eight Snake Clans again.”

“Do you have any friends among the Sheqi Eight families?” Nuonuo asked from behind.

“I don’t know.” Lu Mingfei said lightly.

Although he did not trust the Snake Eight Clans, since he came to Tokyo, he really wanted to get their help.

According to Nono’s idea, they should continue northward across the vast Mongolian grassland and enter the Siberian region, which is as vast and sparsely populated as Mongolia. Even with EVA’s Sky Eye, it would not be easy to search for them.

But Lu Mingfei insisted on coming to Japan, where he wanted to find answers to certain questions.

Lu Mingfei bought new underwear from a vending machine and walked down the long corridor to the bathroom. The corridor was quiet, and he walked lightly, feeling relaxed.

He was thinking about what Nono had just said, that when Caesar saw the video, they would probably both die, and he inexplicably felt like they were living and dying together.

Just like when he and Nuonuo drove to see the mountaintop, he hoped the winding road would never end, the car would just keep running in the night wind. If life was also a winding road, he just hoped Nuonuo would be there along the way. Nuonuo didn’t have to be his, he just wanted to see her back or her profile.

Now that he has been reborn, he still has this kind of loser mentality! As he thought about this, he was also a little angry with himself for not fighting for it. But when he thought about sitting side by side with Nuonuo just now, so close that he seemed to be able to feel the warmth from her body, he still felt peace and joy for no reason.

There was a window at the end of the corridor, and he opened it to breathe some fresh air.

He was surprised to see a flood of light as soon as he opened the window. A few blocks ahead, a bright pillar seemed to reach all the way to the sky. Just outside the window was the Tokyo Skytree, Tokyo’s tallest building, located in Sumida Ward.

Lu Mingfei was stunned. He had been staying in this Internet cafe for several days and had never opened this window. He also never thought that Tokyo Skytree was so close to him.

The little bit of happiness that had just welled up in his heart disappeared like the tide. Lu Mingfei stared blankly at the Tokyo Skytree. He had been there before, with another girl with dark red hair…
