Family heirloom, then turned into a demon girl

Chapter 253 Mission: 03-6 Confusing
As if he could read Lu Mingfei's thoughts, the boy waved at him, "Don't make such a fuss. Just like she said before, you've already 'awakened.' We'll see each other more often in the future."

"But aren't you just an illusion?"

Lu Mingfei looked at him warily and didn't approach: "I don't think I need to talk to you. And wouldn't it be stupid if I really sat over there?"

"Of course not. You can think of this as a world of consciousness. You can even try to scream loudly or even take off your pants. Time passes very quickly here, and people outside won't have time to notice you're daydreaming." The boy shrugged. "But if you don't want to talk to me, I can't help it. What I can tell you is that I'm the only one who can talk to you here."

"Then how can I get out?" Lu Mingfei asked.

The boy smiled and pointed to the empty seat across the table: "If you talk to me more, I might tell you when I feel happy."

"I feel like we don't really get along."

Lu Mingfei said, but he had no choice but to choose to sit in that seat, his expression serious as if he was in class: "Because I don't like what you said."

"You think I'm wrong?" The boy swirled the red wine in his goblet. "But this is the truth. Do you know why I said it wasn't your fault that the girl left?"

He smiled, a hint of mockery appearing on his angelic face: "Because you don't have the power to make her sad."

"Power?" Lu Mingfei frowned, instinctively feeling that what the other party said was not a good thing.

Even though he didn't understand.

"Yes, power. Making someone sad is also a kind of power, a privilege that belongs to 'some people'. For that girl, this privilege belongs to the professor, her parents, but not you."

"That's nonsense." Lu Mingfei showed a disdainful look. "There are so many ways to make someone sad. When she comes out, I'll smear the caviar in her bowl on her face and see if she's sad."

"Sure." The boy smiled faintly, seemingly unconvinced: "If you can do it."

So Lu Mingfei shut up. As the boy had said, he really couldn't do it. Perhaps the girl he imagined sobbing in the toilet cubicle was too real, and he had forgotten that Nero was also a violent machine who could easily destroy tanks and planes.

"Pure violence can also be considered a form of power. Power is the force used to dominate. A philosopher once said that domination is a form of love, and I deeply agree with that."

Lu Mingfei shut up, and the boy began his long speech: "Because I love the country, I want to rule the world; because I love the beauty, I want to possess her. The love of an emperor is no different from the love of others. It's just that others don't have the power, so they can't have such great love."

This confusing and perverse theory made Lu Mingfei dizzy. He instinctively felt that the boy was wrong, but he couldn't find any basis for criticism when he wanted to refute him. Of course, this was also because Lu Mingfei hadn't remembered anything he said, and had been completely brainwashed by power, domination, and love.

"I don't understand." Lu Mingfei said honestly, "So can you tell me how to get out?"

"Are you still planning on comforting her?" the boy scoffed. "Remember Chen Wenwen?"

Lu Mingfei instantly slammed the table and stood up: "No, what does this have to do with Chen Wenwen?"

"A failed confession. But have you ever thought about why it failed?"

"She doesn't like me. Are you here to poke at my scars?"

"No." The boy shook his head. "It's because you don't have enough power." Hearing this, Lu Mingfei was speechless. "No, buddy, it's a modern society now, why are you still doing these feudal dregs?"

"It has nothing to do with feudalism or not; this is the nature of the world. Power doesn't come from thin air; it comes from fear, from authority, from trust—and, of course, from love. Think about it, the concepts of gaining someone, gaining something—these concepts are actually just fictions. All humans can ever achieve is the 'power' to rule over everything."

"You might know this." Lu Mingfei nodded seriously after listening and said, "I always fall asleep during politics class."

He didn't want to argue with the strange phantom in front of him about complicated things like ownership and control.

The boy said quietly, "You will find out how fascinating and wonderful power is..."

Lu Mingfei's vision suddenly dimmed. If this was a dream, he should be waking up soon.

Before leaving completely, Lu Mingfei forced his eyelids open and asked, "What the hell are you?"

The boy opened his mouth slightly, and the words he spoke were silent, but they were engraved on Lu Mingfei's mind like a branding iron:
"Lu Mingze, your younger brother."

Are you kidding? Lu Mingze was clearly sitting outside. He was 160cm tall and weighed 160cm, and looked nothing like this delicate, doll-like figure!

But Lu Mingfei didn't have time to continue speaking. He opened his eyes and found that he had unknowingly walked to the door of the toilet.

A girl with dark red hair stood inside the door, looking at him suspiciously.

Lu Mingfei gasped as he regained consciousness—he had actually reached the door to the women's restroom! He'd even lifted his foot, only half a step away from landing inside the door frame!
"I, I... I'm waiting for someone."

Lu Mingfei was stuck for a long time and finally uttered a completely unbelievable lie.

Nonsense, there's no point in blocking the door when waiting for someone. No matter how you look at him now, Lu Mingfei looks like a pervert who's planning to force his way into the women's restroom.

Fortunately, he finally found his savior. Behind the dark-red-haired girl, Lu Mingfei saw the back of a blonde—that was, of course, Nero. She was facing the bathroom mirror, seemingly retouching her makeup.

"Just wait for her!"

Lu Mingfei became a little tougher when he saw Nero.

"wait for me?"

Nero, who was standing at the back, poked his head out, covered his lips and chuckled: "I'm so sorry, did you recognize the wrong person?"

Bad, bad, bad! Lu Mingfei beat his chest and sighed, thinking he should have expected this to happen. Nero and her relationship was a bit forced, and she would definitely be confused as to why Lu Mingfei suddenly came to block the door. And she was a bit of a prankster to begin with, so she would definitely not help him out. But the problem was that if this continued, Lu Mingfei would really be nailed to the pillar of shame and could never get down!

When Lu Mingfei was so anxious that he was almost spinning around, it was the red-haired girl who took the initiative to help him out: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. You are Lu Mingfei, right?"

"Do you know me?" Lu Mingfei was stunned for the umpteenth time today.
