Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 85: Whale Song (54)

Dragon Raja 5

However, it wasn’t the suite he and Eri had stayed in, but a different one. He had read about the hotel before, and each suite was decorated differently, each with its own unique name: “The Holy Marriage of Versailles,” “The Passion of the Bastille,” “The Conqueror of the Grand Palace,” and this one was called “Battle, My Dear Genghis Khan.” The designer’s imagination was truly extraordinary.

“I really had nowhere else to go, so I had to bring you here to see if using your face would work.” Nuonuo said calmly, “It actually worked. The landlady immediately arranged for us to stay, without charging any money, and repeatedly assured me that she would keep it a secret.”

“The proprietress here is still reliable…” Lu Mingfei said hesitantly.

The boss lady must be reliable, the people hired by Su Enxi are always reliable. Lu Mingfei felt that he was just staying here temporarily, but in the eyes of the boss lady, the assistant of this mysterious client spent so much money in this store that he could buy it out.

Lu Mingfei was covered in cold sweat, not sure if it was the effect of the painkiller or because he was scared.

First of all, he couldn’t explain why he had such a good reputation in a couple’s hotel. Secondly, he just glanced at the store from afar while eating ramen, and Nono brought him here. This girl’s observation and profiling abilities were too terrifying… And what exactly did she profile?

Is it Chairman Lu’s glamorous life in Tokyo, wielding a whip, whipping various Japanese girls, and indulging in love hotels?

But Nuonuo didn’t ask any further questions and went to the table to pour herself a glass of orange juice.

“That’s… Susie, right?” Lu Mingfei asked hesitantly.

Despite being seriously injured and mentally broken, he still recognized his pursuer.

He hadn’t seen Susie for a long time. Since the fourth grade, Susie had gone to the French branch for an internship, and since then he could only see her ID in the Night Watch discussion area.

I heard Susie was excelling in the French branch, and occasionally I’d see her posting photos of herself in front of the Eiffel Tower or Notre Dame on the Night Watch forum. This girl, with her slender features and figure, wasn’t noticeable standing next to Nono, but she’d learned how to dress and apply makeup in the fashion capital of Paris. Her unique, half-Eastern, half-Western beauty earned her many admirers from the younger students. Later, her appearances became less frequent, but this was generally good news, indicating she was being re-employed. More precisely, because she was so outstanding, the academy had assigned her to a position less suitable for frequent external contact.

Now that I think about it, I guess she was trained by the French branch as a beheader. Beheaders are specialists with the strongest individual combat skills. They’re often the ones who execute those bloodthirsty individuals who have been controlled by dragon blood and are beyond redemption.

“Well, maybe she’s my best friend.” Nono answered softly.

Seeing Nuonuo’s lonely face, Lu Mingfei wanted to comfort her, but he couldn’t find any words.

“It’s nothing. Everyone in this hunting team is our acquaintance. Wasn’t that girl named Isabel your assistant? How would you feel, to have a gun pointed at your butt by a pretty female assistant?” Nono seemed indifferent.

“Pointing a gun at your butt?” Lu Mingfei was a little confused.

Nuonuo then remembered that Lu Mingfei had completely fainted during that awkward moment. However, she was too lazy to explain and shrugged, passing over the topic.

“She did leave some room for maneuver. She was hiding in the dark at the time. If she had attacked me right away, I wouldn’t have had time to react.” Nono said, “But I really didn’t expect her to become the executioner. From the letter she wrote to me, I thought she was in charge of the archives department of the Paris branch or just making tea for everyone.”

Even at Golden Iris Academy, Nono could still receive letters from Susie, but because of the lack of internet access, the letters had to be in paper form, sent to the port of Malta, and then brought over by a special person.

Our contact information was as traditional as that of eighteenth-century besties: you live in the east of Paris, I live in the west. Today, I saw a handsome young man at the theater, and my heart was drawn to him. I really want to tell you, but I have to write a letter and find a reliable courier to deliver it. When the courier knocks on your door in the east of Paris, the young man may have already knocked on my door in the west.

In those letters, Susie never mentioned anything about the beheaded team, not even a hint. She only talked about how passionate the young painters by the Seine were and how big the Louvre Museum was. It seemed as if she was just a clerk in a big company in Paris, going to work, shopping, and living a peaceful life.

As a result, she collected heads one after another in the dark night of Paris.

Maybe when you grow up you really have no friends, or to put it more politely, everyone has their own life and can no longer share all their secrets with you.

“I never expected that,” Lu Mingfei said. “I haven’t seen her in a long time since she went to the French branch. To be honest, I thought she would go to the Oslo branch, but I didn’t expect her to end up in France.”

“Why would she want to go to the Oslo branch?” Nono was stunned.

“Because Senior Brother was in the Oslo branch. She likes Senior Brother so much, I really thought she would go with him to the Oslo branch. Xiao Mi was gone anyway, so Senior Brother has to love someone in his life, right?” Lu Mingfei said, lying down and looking up at the roof. “She has a chance. Besides Xiao Long Nu, she’s the closest to Senior Brother.”
