From the dragon race to penetrate the world

Chapter 144 The Missing School Manager
Angers got up to reheat the kettle, the water was a little cold, and then returned to the seat.

"Literally, the school manager disappeared in Nantes, the capital of Loire-Atlantique, France, a day ago."

Angers explained.

Lu Chen frowned slightly. He was thinking about what this place is. Although he has been working hard to learn all kinds of knowledge these days, he is still far from becoming a geography encyclopedia like Brother Chu.

Tell him the names of some countries, but he probably has a few names, but he doesn't know much about the provincial capitals.

"A city in the south of France with beautiful scenery, it was also rated as the most livable city in Europe a few years ago."

Angers saw Lu Chen's troubles, so he gave a general introduction.

"Sounds like a big city, where is the young school trustee going on vacation?"

Lu Chen felt a little strange. After the principal explained, he roughly calculated the geographical location of Nantes. Nantes is directly affected by the warm current of the North Atlantic Ocean, and belongs to a typical temperate marine climate. But now it is just March, and the average temperature is also Just like seven or eight degrees, it's really not a good time for vacation.

"do not know."

Angers shook his head.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, the incident happened yesterday, and the missing person was such an important figure, whether it was the executive department or the Laurent family, they should have rushed to investigate, but the principal actually told him that he didn't know?

"There is no news from the executive department, and the family of the school manager has not given an answer?"

Lu Chenxin said that his family can't all know why the Patriarch is out, right?

However, Angers still shook his head, "Lisa's trip this time is relatively secret. Except for a few confidantes accompanying her, no one knows what is the purpose of her going to Nantes. This is the trouble point now."

"Have you been hijacked?"

Lu Chen was thoughtful.

"There is this possibility. The executive department judged from the clues that a battle should have broken out at that time, and there were bloodstains left, but no corpse was found."

Ange's expression was a bit heavy, no matter in terms of emotion and situation, it was terrible for him that this happened now.

"Although I don't know exactly what the school directors are, they should all be mixed-race families. When such people go out, the guards around them should be elite mixed-races, right? What kind of power can they be in Nantes?" In such a big city, let her disappear, and even the executive department can't find any effective clues?"

Lu Chen felt that this matter might be complicated.

Angers picked up the boiling kettle and re-brewed new tea, "The Laurent family is one of the largest syndicates in Europe. They are engaged in the mining and financial industries. Few of their families are enrolled in school. Strictly speaking, they are not counted as us. Killing the mixed race, but they will also hire outstanding students who graduated from the academy to absorb into their family. As far as I know, Lisa has at least four elites with a bloodline rating of A or above, all of whom were in school. Excellent performers."

"Principal, as an educator, you are always generous with your praise of students, but it is too vague to say that you are excellent. To be more specific, what level is it?"

Lu Chen felt that it was necessary to speculate on how strong the force holding that school manager was.

The principal pondered for a while, and said: "To be more specific, it should not be inferior to your vice president Chu Zihang."

Lu Chen was a little disappointed. He didn't mean to look down on Brother Chu, but if it's just this level of combat power, it's really not very strong.

"Are there any survivors of the non-staff members of the Laurent family?"

Although it seemed unlikely, Lu Chen still asked.

But the result was beyond his expectation. The headmaster nodded, "Yes, the two mixed races who worked under the Laurent family were also in Nantes at the time, but they were not Lisa's accompanying team. They were only in Nantes at the time. They happened to go to Nantes to handle a special mission, and according to the interview afterwards, they didn’t know about it.”

"Sounds suspicious."

Lu Chen smiled playfully.

"It is indeed suspicious, but after getting the consent of the Laurent family, I mobilized Norma to inquire about the information of these two people. Their mission to Nantes was arranged three weeks ago. In theory, at that time Lisa should not have decided to travel to Nantes yet, but according to the investigation of the Executive Department, the location and time of Lisa's disappearance were deduced. At that time, the two people were on the other side of the city, and they seemed to have nothing to do with each other."

"It seems to have nothing to do with it, which means that you are still suspicious, principal."

"Yes, from the perspective of logic and resume information, there is no suspicion, but from the perspective of intuition and reason, they should be inseparable. It's too coincidental anyway, and they are still the kind of rare dirty work."

"Dirty work?"

Lu Chen savored these two words.

"It's the killer."

Anger said lightly.

"I suddenly feel that the school managers have lost their value."

Lu Chen smiled. He originally thought that the families of the school directors were all high-ranking, and they could clear all obstacles with money. "Civilized people" would not use a knife to solve problems that can be solved through negotiation, but now it seems that they are also It's not like this.

Angers asked back: "Then what do you think those big families should be like? The outside and the inside are the same, perfectly glamorous, spotless? Whether it is in business or the competition for interests in the world of mixed races, when it comes to extremes, you still have to Solve it by force."

Lu Chen shook his head, "I'm just complaining casually, no top power in this world will be spotless."

Then he asked again, "Where are those two people now?"

When this question was brought up, Anger was also rarely embarrassed, "It was missing, and there was only one remote interview on the Internet. After a brief communication, the commissioner of the executive department wanted to bring the two back to the academy for detailed questioning, but after that they seemed to be The world has evaporated."

"It seems that I still have a guilty conscience..."

After a pause, Lu Chen's eyes became serious again, "Or maybe it was dealt with by...."

Anger took a sip of tea and said, "Not necessarily, the girl among them was also the president of the Lionheart Club, she is a rare elite, but she made a mistake in a certain task, and she was not very active after being demerited. Yes, they did not enter the executive department after graduation, and were taken in by the Laurent family as ace non-staff personnel, they may have sensed the danger and hid themselves in advance."

Lu Chen was thoughtful. The danger the principal mentioned did not refer to the executive department of the college, but the big hand hidden in the shadows.

"So the principal wants me to go to France now?"

Lu Chen knew the principal's purpose for calling him today.

"Well, those two people should be the only useful clues we have found so far, but they should be very sensitive now. They may attack without reason when they see the commissioner of the executive department. The headache is that they are quite good. The commissioner may be in danger, and dying in such a thing does not have the glory of dying on the battlefield with the Dragon Clan."

Angers is not silent. In the history of Kassel College, there is no waste who can be the president of the Lion Heart. Even though the girl was dismissed, it means that she is good enough, and it is definitely not something that ordinary commissioners can win.

"But you should know that I'm not good at this kind of reasoning and tracking."

Lu Chen spread his hands. He understood what the principal meant, but he wasn't sure whether he could find out the female school director. Besides, they didn't even know whether the other party was dead or alive.

"Try to exercise yourself. You are a smart kid and you have worked hard recently. It's time to test the results. So I don't recommend you bring your good friend, and he is on another mission right now."

Anger said with a smile, the good friend is naturally Chu Zihang.

"But I don't know French, and I'm very unfamiliar with that city."

Lu Chen was hinting frantically, meaning at least you should ask me to bring a helper.

"You can choose someone from the Lionheart Club. This is considered a secret operation, and there is no record of this time in the regulations of the executive department. Strictly speaking, after you go out, you are still in the academy to the outside world."

Ange's expression was meaningful.

Lu Chen understood the meaning of the other party, which was implying that some people in his academy were also untrustworthy, or that some people in the secret party were untrustworthy.

"Principal, you are very kind when you call that female school manager by name. It can be seen that you have a good relationship, but why do I feel that you are not very concerned about her safety?"

Lu Chen and the old man looked at each other, as if they wanted to see through each other's heart, but the mist of the tea floated in front of those ancient and calm eyes, and he couldn't see anything.

"This is a premeditated hijacking, and the forces that can achieve such a perfect hijacking are definitely not for ransom, but they can't kill Lisa either."

Angers paused and said, "The school board meeting will be held in Portofino, Italy at the end of this month."

"Understood, I have accepted this mission, what's the departure time?"

Lu Chen drank the rest of the tea in the cup, stood up and moved his body slightly. He didn't ask why the principal didn't take action himself. The other party was obviously stumbling, and it's not appropriate for the principal to do this.

The principal's hint was very clear. Lu Chen could only lament that some members of the school board were so audacious that they dared to take action against another school manager. Although they might not dare to do anything to Lisa, in short, at the meeting next month, the principal And he will have one less strong support, or maybe the only strong support.

"For tonight's plane, you have to decide on your accompanying list before nightfall, and Norma will arrange the itinerary for you."

Angers put away the tea set, which meant that the afternoon tea time was over.

"I haven't been on a mission for a long time, and my body is a little rusty. I hope there will be some big ones among the mice this time."

Lu Chen smiled, turned and left.

After Ange put away the tea set, he looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, a pair of dazzling golden pupils lit up, a pocket knife appeared in his hand, fluttering like a butterfly, and his hands with blue veins were steady and powerful.

At this time, the thunder flashed, illuminating the old man's faintly angry face, and there was a pattering sound outside the window, and the rain curtain finally fell.

Some people began to disobey the rules of the game, just like when two countries are at war, usually they would not send someone to assassinate the king, that would be spurned by the kings.

Who is the main messenger behind this incident?

…………

Lu Chen returned to the Lion Heart Club, came to his office, and continued to deal with official duties.

Chu Zihang has been away on a mission for the past few days, which is why the principal didn't let him rely on Brother Chu. Now he is the only decision maker left in the Lion Heart Club, so he can't be too fishy.

Lu Chen yawned. The irregular sound of rain outside the window always makes people sleepy, especially when dealing with official business is very boring.

A cup of ready-made Maojian was placed by his table. It was Miranda. She knew that the president didn't like coffee, but preferred tea from his hometown.

"Milan, where is Lancelot?"

Lu Chen thanked him and asked.

"Lancelot took over the task of the executive department in the morning and just left school not long ago."

Miranda replied that under the influence of Lu Chen, many members of the Lionheart Club have started to apply to become the temporary commissioner of the executive department. The same is true for Lancelot. He has always been very energetic and believes that the president has set an example. behind.

"That's it."

Lu Chen picked up the teacup to drink directly, paused again, and blew gently, he always remembered some instructions.

"Is the president looking for Lancelot for something?"

Miranda wondered, this was the first time she had heard Lu Chen mention Lancelot in private.

"It's nothing, I just want to go on a mission in France, and I need a guide who is familiar with the local area."

Lu Chen shook his head, since Lancelot is on a mission, forget it.

But after Miranda heard Lu Chen's words, a pair of green eyes as clear as emeralds shone, "President, you forgot that I am also French."

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. This was his negligence. Miranda was indeed a native Frenchman. According to Senior Brother Fingel, the other party's family was a world-renowned consortium. La is more popular in France.

But he ignored Milana for the first time, for no other reason... It's just that he felt embarrassed to go on missions with girls.

Ding--

Coincidentally, at this time his cell phone was still ringing, it should be Erika's message.

"Godzilla, the weather forecast says it will rain in Chicago today, did you take your umbrella with you?"

Erika is such a caring girl.

"Don't worry, I have an umbrella and I won't get wet."

Lu Chen replied, but this is a lie. He never reads the weather forecast, and he forgot to bring an umbrella today, but he doesn't want Erika to worry, and the Lionheart Club has plenty of umbrellas.

However, Erika's words reminded him of the Hayao Miyazaki series of movies he watched with Brother Fingel a few days ago, and there was a sentence in it.

It's raining in my city, but I dare not ask if it's raining in your city, because I'm afraid that you will say it's raining, but I can't hold an umbrella for you.

Eliyi obviously doesn't think so much, and Lu Chen also thinks this sentence is too gentle, sometimes, it's good to be straightforward, isn't it?
If you don't ask, how will he know that there is someone in another city who cares about his well-being?

"President, is that the girl you met in Japan?"

There was a flash of disappointment in Milana's eyes, but the gossip still prevailed in her heart, and she asked curiously.

"Well, just a daily greeting."

After replying the message, Lu Chen didn't put away his phone, but opened Norma's declaration interface, and looked up at Milana, "To be honest, this task is quite complicated and risky. Are you willing to go?"

Miranda smiled like a flower and said, "Of course, it would be the best if I can help you."

"Then I'll trouble you. It's a bit unreasonable for me to go to France alone. Now go back and pack your bags. The python of the world will stop outside the campus at eight o'clock."

Lu Chen looked at Milana helplessly, and sent a message on his mobile phone, confirming the mission personnel.

Although he and Erika were not boyfriend and girlfriend as the principal said, they had an inexplicable feeling that going out with a girl on a mission had... um... the sense of immorality that Senior Brother Fingel said.
