Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before slaying the dragon

Eiry frowned her beautiful eyebrows. Lu Mingfei was telling her about another life in his dream in the deserted sunset. She seemed to be immersed in experiencing the tragedy with Lu Mingfei. Eiry looked at Lu Mingfei's face. She could fully understand Lu Mingfei's complicated mood, but Eiry could not think of any words of comfort. She seldom communicated with others and was not good at speaking.

Lu Mingfei and Eiry were sitting on a big rock on the edge of the cliff. Eiry moved towards Lu Mingfei, and suddenly she hugged Lu Mingfei and patted him gently on the back. This was something she learned from a TV drama, and it was also the most comforting way she could think of.

Lu Mingfei was stunned when he was hugged. He came to his senses after smelling the scent of soap coming from the ends of Eiry's hair. He also hugged Eiry and patted her on the back to indicate that it was okay.

"The second tragedy befell my junior sister, Xia Mi." Lu Mingfei looked at Eriyi. "You've also met Xia Mi. She's the girl who came to see me with Old Tang."

"I remember that girl was very pretty and she chatted with me." Eri nodded and wrote.

"Yes, Xia Mi is very likable. She's very cute and has a quirky personality. She can get along with anyone, and all the students at Kassel Academy like her." Lu Mingfei said, "A lot of things happened between Xia Mi and my senior brother. Xia Mi likes my senior brother, and my senior brother also likes Xia Mi, but neither of them could break through that window paper. The lively and spirit-like girl and the cold and aloof senior brother, in fact, according to the original development, Xia Mi and Chu Zihang should have become the closest and most suitable lovers."

"What happens next?" Eiry immediately wrote in the small notebook.

"She died afterwards. During that life trajectory, my senior brother and I teamed up to kill Xia Mi." Lu Mingfei's voice was dark. "My senior brother killed the girl he loved with his own hands, because Xia Mi and Old Tang were the same existence... They were both enemies of Kassel Academy."

"So pitiful." Eiry couldn't help but write in her little notebook.

"Yes, fate is such a terrible thing. It is like an invisible devil that always likes to play tricks on poor people." Lu Mingfei said softly.

"The devil has found my door, and the next tragedy has completely befallen me." Then Lu Mingfei took a deep breath and looked at Eri. "I lost my friends and my junior sister, and the next thing I'm going to lose is... the only girl in the world who loves me."

Chapter 494 Wrong Life

The huge sun has almost completely sunk below the sea level. The tired sunset is taking away the last rays of light. Darkness is about to sweep across the entire earth, as if foreshadowing that Lu Mingfei is about to usher in another darkest moment in his life.

"Just as I was about to enter my junior year, the trip to Japan came as planned," Lu Mingfei said. "It was exactly the same as this time. I was assigned as a specialist to Japan, and I was in a team with my senior and the boss. We joined the Japanese branch and jointly explored the former Soviet warship Lenin, which sank in the Sea of ​​Japan 20 years ago."

"The academy suspected the Lenin was carrying some forbidden dragon item. Later, through sonar detection, it was discovered that the forbidden item was an ancient dragon embryo." Lu Mingfei said, "Our mission is to work together with the Japanese to destroy this incubating ancient dragon embryo."

"So the 'Abyss Project' was born. When my elder brother, my senior brothers, and I arrived in the Abyss, we discovered a vast ancient civilization. The ancient dragon city of Takama-ga-hara appeared before us. We were stunned by what we saw." Lu Mingfei recalled the scenes he saw in the Abyss. "And the Lenin, which had sunk to the bottom of the sea, had grown together with the ancient dragon embryo."

"It was only then that we realized that the shipwreck twenty years ago might not have been an accident. Someone deliberately sank this ancient dragon embryo into Takama-ga-hara. The person behind the scenes used the embryo's blood as nutrients, hoping to awaken something dormant in Takama-ga-hara." A trace of haze flashed across Lu Mingfei's eyes.

"We went to great lengths to get the refined sulfur bomb into the Lenin, but when we were about to surface, we discovered we'd been tricked by the Snake Clan," Lu Mingfei said indignantly. "The Trieste we were on had long been secretly converted into a mobile nuclear bomb by those bastards from the Japanese branch."

"Your brother, Gen Chisheng, told us we had to drop a nuclear power module into Takama-ga-hara before we could ascend, or we'd all be doomed. We cursed your brother while dropping the nuclear power module, which had been converted into a nuclear bomb, into Takama-ga-hara." Lu Mingfei said bluntly, "Fortunately, although Gen Chisheng is shameless, he at least keeps his promises."

Her brother was slandered in such a way in front of her, but instead of being angry or annoyed, Eiry nodded in agreement. It can be seen that she has actually been harboring some resentment towards Gen Chisheng in her heart for a long time... I just wonder what Gen Chisheng would think if he was here and saw this scene and heard the conversation between Lu Mingfei and Eiry.

"Having a premonition that Takama-ga-hara was about to be destroyed, the corpse guardians sleeping beneath the ground came out in droves. My senior brother, the boss, and I had just escaped death when we were surrounded by a swarm of monsters. Back then, I wasn't as capable as I am now of fighting those monsters. Our submersible disintegrated in the deep sea. With no way out..." At this point, Lu Mingfei's gaze fell on Eri's face, "That's when you appeared, Eri."

Eiry blinked. Apparently, she still remembered the scene of meeting Lu Mingfei under the deep sea on the day of the "Earth Abyss Project".

"You descended from the sky carrying an iceberg, and monsters died one after another helplessly under your blade. You indirectly saved me, my senior brother, and the boss." Lu Mingfei paused, looking at Eiry, who was wearing the red and white miko costume, and said, "That was the first time I met Eiry. She was wearing the same outfit she is wearing today."

"But at that time, I was extremely short of oxygen, and my consciousness was blurry. In the pitch-black and chaotic seabed, I only saw a familiar figure with long dark red hair. I didn't notice that the figure looked at me with such a strange look, revealing a cold murderous intent." Lu Mingfei's tone was full of guilt. "I was like a dying person who saw a ray of warm dawn in the bone-chilling cold. I wanted to grasp that light, and swam frantically towards that figure, desperately trying to hug him..."

At this point, Lu Mingfei suddenly fell silent, as if he was at a loss for words... In fact, Lu Mingfei had already prepared to confess these words and this dream to Eiry, but when Eiry was really in front of him, he found that it was more difficult to tell the tragic story than he had imagined.

"Did Sakura mistake me for someone else?" Eri thought for a moment and asked in the notebook.

Although this girl has a simple personality and almost no social experience, she is definitely not stupid or foolish. On the contrary, Eri is actually more delicate in mind than ordinary girls to some extent.

Lu Mingfei said that it was the first time he met Eiry in a dream, but he saw a "familiar figure", just like seeing the deepest shadow in his mind at the most helpless moment, so Lu Mingfei described it as a "warm dawn".

"Yes." Lu Mingfei sighed and said slowly, "At that time, I mistook you, Eri, for my senior sister, Nono. Nono has dark red hair like you."

"When people are on the verge of death, a fleeting scene will emerge in their mind. That is the most unforgettable moment in a person's life. For me at that time, being rescued by my senior sister under the Three Gorges Reservoir was one of my most unforgettable moments. So when I was in a similar desperate situation, I instinctively thought that it was my senior sister who came to save me." Although Lu Mingfei said this to Nono, his voice was full of guilt towards Eiry.

"I swam clumsily towards Eri, my movements like a duckling paddling. Perhaps my foolish actions made you let down your guard, Eri. You looked at me curiously, as if you were watching a fool with no offensive ability slowly pounce on you." Lu Mingfei whispered, "Then I suddenly hugged you. This was probably the first time you were hugged by someone of the opposite sex you didn't know, so you were stunned and didn't resist."

"I was holding Eri, but you thought I was holding Senior Sister, calling out 'Nono, Nono.' The unconscious Boss Caesar was still beside us, his body floating toward the surface like a bloated jellyfish..." Lu Mingfei's voice was getting lower and lower. "But at that time, Eri, you had no idea of ​​all this. In that wrong period of our lives, the wrong fate between us began with this damn misunderstanding."

Eiry looked at Lu Mingfei quietly and listened to him telling her everything. There was no expression on her face except seriousness. A normal girl would be angry or annoyed to hear such words, but Eiry was not.

Or maybe Eiry was actually a little angry, but she didn't know how to express it to Lu Mingfei, so she hid this emotion deep in her heart.

"After escaping from the 'Abyss Plan,' my senior brother, the boss, and I met up at an internet cafe. Coincidentally, Miss Aso Shin was working there. The Japanese branch had announced their separation from Kassel Academy, and the Eight Snake Families had collectively betrayed the secret party. Our connection with the outside world was completely cut off," Lu Mingfei said. "The internet cafe was surrounded by bikers and gangs. We subconsciously thought the Eight Snake Families were sending people to kill us. Miss Shin, regardless of her own safety, helped us escape from the internet cafe."

"Is it Shin from Akihabara?" Eri asked in the small notebook.

Eiry had met Aso Makoto and Noda Hisashi. When she and Lu Mingfei were shopping in Akihabara, gangsters were searching for them on the streets. Aso Makoto took them to hide in the maid cafe where she worked and treated Eiry warmly. Lu Mingfei also told Eiry the story of Aso Makoto and Noda Hisashi, so Eiry had a deep impression of that girl.

"Yes, Miss Zhen was a very brave and righteous girl, but she died at the hands of those biker gangs," Lu Mingfei said regretfully. "Those biker gangs claimed to be from the main family, but in fact they were members of the Mengkishu. Boss Caesar vowed to make Minamoto Chisei pay the price, and thus successfully provoked the relationship between us and the Sheqi Eight Clan."

"Is that why Sakura is so concerned about Shou and Makoto?" Eri asked.

"That's right, they are all very good and kind people, and kind people deserve a happy ending." Lu Mingfei said seriously, "So I have the ability to know everything in advance, and it is my responsibility to help those around me avoid those tragedies."

"Because Sakura is also a kind person." Eiry wrote in the small notebook and showed it to Lu Mingfei with a serious expression on her face.

After a moment's silence, Lu Mingfei slowly shook his head and said softly, "I'm not a kind person. I'm just a selfish person. The me in my dreams is the same, and the me now is the same... No matter when, I only think about not regretting anything, that's all. But the me in my dreams is too stupid, and every decision I make is wrong."

"It's not wrong. It was Sakura's own decision." Eiry looked at Lu Mingfei and didn't know how to comfort him.

"Yes, I made those decisions myself, so I have to bear the consequences myself." Lu Mingfei nodded and continued, "The leader of the biker gang shot at the boss, and I stepped forward to block the bullet for the boss. The boss and my senior brother took me to the Takama-ga-hara Club, where we worked as gigolos to support ourselves while avoiding the underworld."

"Our careers as gigolos were also different. The boss's flamboyant personality was practically born for gigolodom. He felt at home when he arrived in Takama-ga-hara. Although my senior brother wasn't good at speaking or socializing, he was very handsome. Many Japanese mature women are attracted to cool, handsome young men." Lu Mingfei paused. "But I was different. Back then, I was a loser. No matter what kind of woman was, she would never be attracted to a loser. At most, she would give him a few pitiful sympathy tickets. So, the boss and senior brother had already finished their debut, and I was still working as a waiter, worrying every day about earning enough 800 tickets."

"Sakura is great. I will buy Sakura flower tickets." Eiry wrote encouraging words for Lu Mingfei in a small notebook.

Lu Mingfei was stunned. He looked at Eiry's face. This girl always supported him, no matter in dreams or reality, no matter he was a loser or an elite... But when he thought of the ending of Eiry that he was about to tell, Lu Mingfei's heart felt like it was being squeezed to death.

"You've already done that." Lu Mingfei patted Eri's head and continued, "After that, we infiltrated Genji Heavy Industries to retaliate against the Snake Eight Clan. During the process, I got separated from my senior brother and the eldest brother. They found your brother, and the three of us had a fight. Fortunately, the misunderstanding was resolved. By chance, I ran into you, Eri, who was about to run away from home. Your little yellow duck fell into my hands. After seeing the little yellow duck, you finally remembered me and left Genji Heavy Industries with me."

"After seeing your performance in the 'Abyss Plan,' Eriyi, the boss and my senior brothers all agreed that you were dangerous. The task they assigned me was to play with you, but in reality, it was to monitor you and prevent anyone from provoking you into danger." Lu Mingfei spoke the truth as tactfully as possible. "So back then, I also played with you everywhere, just like I do now. But the difference is that I didn't know Eriyi at all, so I kept my distance from you."

"Does that mean Sakura is afraid of me?" Eri asked.

"Yes, I was afraid of Eiry back then, but that wasn't Eiry's fault, because I was essentially a wimp," Lu Mingfei said frankly. "But as we got along, I found that Eiry wasn't scary at all. Instead, she was very cute and obedient. I took Eiry with me everywhere. We went to Sensoji Temple, Disneyland, and Meiji Jingu Shrine. We went shopping for clothes, snacks, and the biggest Rilakkuma... To be honest, I felt most relaxed when I saw this part in my dream, because for that once-loser me, this was probably the first time in my life that I had been so close to a beautiful girl. It's a very beautiful memory."

"For our last trip, we arrived at Umezuji Town. It's here today. I took Eri to see the sea, the forest, and the sunset. As the sun set, we hugged each other." The sunset had faded, and Lu Mingfei looked at the sea in the night. "That was the first time I knew there were girls in this world who liked me, the me who... no one else liked."

The black sea ebbed and flowed, and the sound of the tide was like a sad poem. After a long silence, Lu Mingfei finally spoke.

"At that time, my heart was in love with my senior sister. I felt that I could not accept Eiry's feelings for me, so I betrayed the orders of the boss and my senior brothers and made the worst decision of my life... I sent Eiry away." Lu Mingfei's eyes became blurred, as if he was trapped in painful memories. "I personally sent the only girl in the world who loved me into the abyss."

"I took Eri to the Umezuji-cho station and watched you get on the train with my own eyes," Lu Mingfei said. "I suppressed my fear and called Gen Chisheng, telling him the time and place to pick you up. Gen Chisheng picked you up successfully, and I returned to my Takama-ga-hara."

This time it can't be just a hug!

Chapter 495: The Sorrow of the Red Well

"After seeing Eri off, I stood alone on the platform for a long time," Lu Mingfei said. "At the time, I didn't know whether my decision was right or wrong, but deep down I felt that this was good for both you and me."

"I thought we'd never meet again. One was a prominent underworld princess, and the other was a nameless, low-class gigolo. Our lives would never intersect again," Lu Mingfei whispered. "I thought it wouldn't be long before Eri would forget me, and after leaving this little episode in her life, she would go back to living the life a underworld princess should live."

"I don't want this." Eiry wrote in a small notebook for Lu Mingfei to see.

"I know. I understand Eiry's thoughts now, but I didn't know that back then." Lu Mingfei shook his head. "Because we were also hunted by the demons the day before, Eiry was controlled by the sound of the king's clappers, and I was also affected by the sound of the clappers. Facing hundreds of biker gangs and yakuza, I had no way to deal with them. I could only desperately escape with Eiry, and in the end, Eiry lost control and killed many people."

"Eryi told me at the hotel, 'We're all little monsters, and one day we'll be killed by the righteous Ultraman.' The next day, Eryi dressed and told me you were going home, saying your body couldn't hold on any longer. You said your family was worried about your safety," Lu Mingfei said. "At that time, I foolishly thought Eryi really wanted to go home, so after completing your last trip, I sent you off without telling my senior brother and the boss."

"I'm overwhelmed with emotions, but I also feel a lot more relaxed because now I don't have to deal with Eri's feelings for me, nor do I have to worry about whether she'll betray my feelings for my senior sister." Lu Mingfei said quietly, "Choosing between the girl I like and the girl who likes me is a deadly choice for that coward who doesn't even dare to confess his feelings."

"Finally, Eri, you asked me who I was and where to find me, but I avoided you. I didn't have the courage to speak out." Lu Mingfei said, "Finally, I returned to our hotel. The eldest brother and my senior brothers witnessed everything, but they didn't blame me. Perhaps the storm was coming, and they thought sending you back to the family was a good decision. They accompanied me to pack up all of Eri's things and mailed them back to the Sheqi Eight Clan."

While Lu Mingfei was saying all this, Eiry's hands were tightly grasping the hem of her shrine maiden's costume. It was obvious that her heart was in turmoil as she listened to Lu Mingfei's words.

They were currently on the final journey of the dream story Lu Mingfei had described. A deep sense of unease enveloped Eri, who wondered what would happen after today's journey ended... Would she and Sakura return to Takama-ga-hara? Or would they be sent away, just like in the dream?

Lu Mingfei carefully noticed Eiry's little movements. He held Eiry's hand, which was tightly grasping the corner of her clothes, and held Eiry's hand between his two palms to dispel the uneasiness in her heart.

"After returning to Takama-ga-hara, Kazama Ruri came to us. You've met Kazama Ruri before, the handsome boy from the last Kabuki performance. His real name is Minamoto no Chijo, your brother's younger brother." Lu Mingfei said, "Kazama Ruri told us that General Wang will soon be in contact with Tachibana Masamune. These two underworld bosses are also two deep conspirators. Their meeting place is nowhere to be found, and the top of Tokyo Tower is the best place for negotiations."

"Caesar Chu Zihang, my other good-for-nothing senior brother, and Fengjian Liuli and I sneaked into the vicinity of Tokyo Tower. We lay in ambush, waiting for the King to show up, and then kill this terrifying man." Lu Mingfei whispered, "The King did show up, along with Tachibana Masamune and countless Deadpools. Minamoto Chisei also infiltrated the battlefield, and we were all surrounded by the Deadpools. In desperation, Sakura sacrificed herself for Minamoto Chisei, and Tachibana Masamune also sacrificed herself for Minamoto Chisei. Your brother lost two of his closest and most trusted people during that negotiation. He could only shoulder the heavy burden of the Snake Eight Clan and the mission of killing the 'God' alone."

Lu Mingfei sighed and said slowly, "But even the 'Emperor' of the Sheqi Eight Clan is equally insignificant in the face of fate. The 'God' has resurrected, and the long-dormant volcano has begun to erupt. The tsunami has swept across Tokyo... No, the entire Japan. The frenzy of the corpse guards has followed one after another, and the entire country is tottering in this huge disaster."

"Gen Zhisheng rushed to the place where the 'God' had revived, while Gen Zhinu desperately wanted to see her brother. Before leaving, Gen Zhinu entrusted me with the will to slay the 'God'. She said I was a man with a lion in my eyes, and she bet on me to win."

Lu Mingfei smiled self-deprecatingly.

"But I think he made a wrong bet. Yuan Zhinv is such a smart person. I really think he made a fool of himself this time, actually betting the important task of slaying the 'god' on a useless loser. He can say that the boss or senior brother has a lion in his eyes, but there is no lion in my eyes. I only see eye boogers..."

Lu Mingfei blurted out a silly remark for the first time in a long time, and Eiry was also amused by him, but only Lu Mingfei himself knew that what he said was true. At that time, he really felt that if he didn't trade with Lu Mingze, his martial arts value would basically be zero, but if he traded with Lu Mingze, he would have to sacrifice a quarter of his life...

The main reason was that he was not familiar with Wang Jiang, Tachibana Masamune and the like, nor was he familiar with the resurrected "God". Spending his own life to save a country that had nothing to do with him and a group of people who had nothing to do with him was what a hero should do. Lu Mingfei felt that he was not so clear-headed.

Anyway, experts say that Japan will sink into the sea sooner or later, it doesn’t matter whether it sinks sooner or later... It would be a pity if the holy land of otakus and those excellent game and comic companies disappeared from the world, but no matter how fun the games are or how interesting the anime are, they are not worth risking your life for!

"Many people died in that war, including Sakura, Yasha, Uesugi Koshi, Miyamoto Shio, Fuma Kotaro... Of the eight heads of the Snake Clan, only Sakurai Nanami remained." Lu Mingfei continued, "including your brother Minamoto Chisei and Minamoto Chijo. They also killed each other under the conspiracy of the man behind the scenes, and finally died together in each other's arms."

"The man behind the scenes is Herzog. He is both the former patriarch of the Snake Eight Families, Tachibana Masamune, and the king of the Oni Clan. He plays two roles, controlling all the mixed-blood societies in Japan, with the goal of resurrecting the 'God.'" Lu Mingfei's eyes flashed with ferocity. "Herzog plays your father for this purpose, because you are the most important and indispensable wedge in his plan to resurrect the 'God.'"

"Herzog treated you as... a vessel." Lu Mingfei looked into Eiry's eyes and spoke the cruel truth word by word.

Eiry was stunned, obviously not understanding what the "container" here meant.

"Herzog certainly didn't resurrect God to watch him destroy the world. He did it to plunder God's power and become the supreme overlord of this world," Lu Mingfei explained to Eri. "God's power is contained in a bone called the Sacred Relic. The Sacred Relic itself is highly toxic. Ordinary hybrids can't withstand the explosive toxicity, but super hybrids can."

"You are the purest hybrid known to Herzog, so Herzog transplanted the 'Sacred Remains' into your body, Eri." Lu Mingfei narrated in his calmest voice. "Herzog used your blood to filter the poison from the 'Sacred Remains', then drained your blood and injected it into his own body. This way, he could gain the supreme power of 'God'."

Eri listened to all this quietly, with no expression of joy or sadness on her face.

She had long known from Lu Mingfei's conversation with Gen Chisheng that Tachibana Masamune was a bad guy. In Eri's simple and pure view of right and wrong, bad guys would do bad things, so she was not surprised that Herzog did such an excessive thing to her... She looked at Lu Mingfei, wondering if the dream Lu Mingfei had told her had come to an end.

"Eryi was taken away when the tsunami hit Japan. You sent me a message on Line saying you were going to Korea. I video-called you and saw you were in the back seat of a luxury car. I felt relieved, thinking you were really going to Korea," Lu Mingfei said. "Eryi told me you were scared, but not of the sound of the tsunami. You heard the roar of something, and that sound terrified you. At the time, I was still drinking alone in the wine cellar."

"Eri, you said you were going to come find me and take me to Korea... If I had agreed, maybe our lives would have been different." Lu Mingfei paused. "But I refused again. I tried to comfort you, telling you I was in the shelter and that it was safe, with water and hot towels. But in reality, my clothes were soaked by the cold sea water, and I drank to keep warm."

"You asked me when I would go to Korea to find you. I said at least three months, at most six months. I would definitely come to see you during the Begonia Festival. You should wait for me under the Begonia tree. Buy me two ice creams. If we meet, you can give me one. If we don't, you can keep both." Lu Mingfei smiled bitterly. "You believed me... But there are no Begonia trees or Begonia Festival in Korea. I lied to you, but you believed me. I was hiding in the wine cellar at the time. When the manager and the customers arrived, I pretended to be dead."

"You kept sending me Line messages. You said you hadn't arrived at the airport yet, the road was bumpy, and you had a headache. Your name in Korea is Kim Hee-ae. You also said you would live in an apartment in Gangnam District, South Korea. You sent me the detailed address. You asked if I was still there and wanted me to talk to you. You said you were cold, and you could hear that thing roaring, and it felt like it was talking to you..."

Lu Mingfei talked incessantly, memorizing every piece of information from Eiry in the dream story word for word.

"You kept talking non-stop like that at the time, and I just felt annoyed. I didn't reply to you, and I deleted all the messages I had edited. The men and women outside were running for their lives, but I didn't want to care. I just wanted to hide away and drink alone where no one could find me." Lu Mingfei's voice was trembling, and he tried his best to calm himself down. "Then I remembered that Line can locate friends. I was afraid that Eiry would do something stupid and come back to look for me, so I turned on the location and saw your location..."

"But you're not on your way to the airport at all. Your location is at Hongjing!"

"A fierce fear exploded in my mind and I realized that I had made a mistake... an irreversible mistake!"

Lu Mingfei couldn't suppress the trembling in his voice.

"But I still couldn't believe it at the time. I tried to deceive myself, wondering if Yuan Zhisheng had already dealt with 'God' and invited you over for a drink. I counted on my fingers whether I should have saved that girl, and whether it was worth the high price to save her..."

"While fighting Deadpool in the water, at the moment of suffocation, I finally remembered that the person who hugged me and saved me at the bottom of the sea was not my senior sister, but Eri!" Lu Mingfei's voice choked with sobs. "Jiude Mai handed me the car keys and asked me to go find you."

"But on the way, I was still calculating. Maybe everything was fine at Hongjing, or maybe I was just worrying too much. Was it worth it? Was it really worth it... I must have... lost my mind..."

"It's too late... I rushed to Hongjing, but everything is too late..."

"What awaits me is only a hellish scene and devastation... Eri, you are wrapped in a huge, white cocoon... Your blood is being drained from your body... Your body is withering inch by inch..."

"'Sakura... Sakura... Sakura...' You muttered silently while sobbing..."

Lu Mingfei's body began to tremble uncontrollably, as if he was experiencing a nightmare. Even though he pinched his wrists tightly with his hands, trying to calm the uneasiness with the pain, it was still useless... because the trembling came from the depths of his soul.

"The tragedy happened, but I couldn't change anything... I hugged Eri's withered body... I dug out your things from your suitcase... your clothes... your toys... your postcards... everything had your name and mine written on it..."

Tears flowed silently from Lu Mingfei's eyes.

"It turns out I can be so important in a girl's life... It turns out there are people who really like a loser like that..."

"I was going crazy when I saw all this... I'm such a complete bastard... I felt like my heart was being cut by a knife... This is the price that bastards have to pay... The lion in my heart finally jumped out... I paid a high price... It's too late to worry about whether it was worth it..."

Chapter 496 Tragedy

"04.24, Sakura and I went to Tokyo Skytree. The warmest place in the world is at the top of the Skytree."

"04.26, I went to Meiji Shrine with Sakura. Someone was holding a wedding there."

"04.25, went to Disney with Sakura. The haunted house was scary, but it wasn't scary because Sakura was there."

"Each one is a Tokyo travel postcard... The pictures on them are of Tokyo Skytree, Sensoji Temple, Disneyland, Meiji Jingu Shrine... Every place is a place Eri and Sakura have visited together... But I have no idea how Eri collected them..."

……

"My phone is also in the box. The screen shows a mountain in Ehime Prefecture... the one right here below us... My back is sitting next to a shrine in the sunset. It's so peaceful and beautiful..."

"Because I'm a gigolo and don't want to reveal my identity and take a photo with Eri, so Eri secretly took this photo... I don't even know when Eri took it, and it's even set as my screen saver..."

"I didn't know. I've never experienced this feeling before... It turns out that my every move is so important in the eyes of others... It turns out... there are people who secretly stare at my back, lost in thought..."

……

"I carried Eri aside and let her sit down against the wall of the well... I fixed her hair and placed her toys next to her one by one..."

"Eriya is very scared, but with Rilakkuma, Hello Kitty, the little monsters, and the rubber duck accompanying her, she probably won't be scared anymore... I thought..."

"Until I accidentally knocked over the Rilakkuma while I was displaying it, and I saw the label on the bottom of the Rilakkuma..."
