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

"Yes, they did a great job, but these children...eh?" Professor Manstein hadn't finished his plea when he suddenly realized, "Principal, what did you say...? Great? You mean they did a great job?"

"Yes, under the effect of the 'commands', it can still have such a degree of destructive power. No matter from which aspect, it is worthy of praise." Anger nodded and pointed to the bare dome of the Lionheart Society. "Anyway, I can't do it."

"But President, the Lionheart Society's building is a century old after all. It should be the building from the early days of Kassel College. Now it has been destroyed like this. Don't you think these students... are a little too rampant?" Knowing that the president had no intention of blaming him, Professor Manstein became sarcastic. "They are relying on the day of freedom to act more and more unscrupulously. One day they will demolish the entire college and shit on the heads of us professors and school directors... as long as there is a day of freedom as a guarantee!"

"Mingfei and Chu Zihang are both sensible children, and they know when to act." Angers looked at Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, "Am I right?"

"Yes, Principal, we know our limits. We fight for progress. Only when we improve our strength can we have a better chance of accomplishing our mission of slaying the dragon." Lu Mingfei quickly added, "After all, it's just a sparring match. It won't cause any casualties, nor will it bring too much loss to the academy."

Lu Mingfei made his assurance sincerely, and Chu Zihang beside him also nodded seriously. Just looking at their looks, one would have thought that they were truly good students in morals, intelligence and physique who came out of a model high school.

"Bullshit!" Professor Manstein couldn't help but swear. "What are those messy wheel tracks on Odin Square? The students inside have been diagnosed with moderate concussions. You're not going to say that he just crashed into the car while racing? And this Lionheart Club, do you know how much work it will take to repair it? Isn't this a huge loss?"

"Okay, Professor Manstein, Kassel Academy is not a hothouse, and concussion is not a serious injury." Angers spoke up to put the final word on the matter. "As for today's loss... The budget allocated to us by the Gattuso family this year is quite sufficient. The part for repairing the academy will be drawn from this budget. Do you have any objection, Caesar?"

Ange looked at Caesar not far away, and Caesar just shrugged to show that he had no objection.

"That's fine." Angers smiled. "No matter how big the loss is, as long as it can be compensated with money, it's not a big problem. But if the college misses out on outstanding talents, that would be a huge pity."

"I understand." Professor Manstein nodded. Since the principal had given orders to protect Lu Mingfei and the others, he had no way to pursue the matter.

"It shouldn't be Lu Mingfei, nor Chu Zihang." Angé looked at Eri, "It was you who turned the Lionheart into this, wasn't it, Uesugi Eri?"

"It's me. It has nothing to do with Sakura and senior brother." Eri nodded, looking quite heroic as if she was responsible for her own actions.

"Principal, Eri didn't do it on purpose. She has only been at Kassel Academy for a few days and is not familiar with the school's rules and buildings." Lu Mingfei quickly stepped forward and blocked Eri's way, fearing that Ange would punish her. "If you want to punish her, punish me. I didn't teach her well. Even if you want me to lose credits, I will accept it."

"To protect the girl you love by using a self-torture tactic, I also used this tactic when I was young." Ange patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder and blinked, "Don't worry, I said I won't pursue you, so you won't be punished... I just want to confirm it."

"As expected of you, you are the descendant of Uesugi Koshi's bloodline. You look exactly like your father. How terrifying." Angé looked at Eri, his eyes like a gourmet looking at a plate of exquisite food. "You have ignored the vice-principal's 'rules'. This is the first time since the establishment of Kassel Academy. I am very pleased and excited. I just hope that you will be more careful in the academy in the future and don't use the power of your words at will."

"Okay." Eriyi nodded.

"I'll help supervise!" Seeing that the principal really had no intention of blaming him, Lu Mingfei quickly expressed his opinion.

"As for the '3e' exam I just mentioned, you really don't need to take it, and the academy hasn't prepared anything for you." Angers said to Eri, "Your identity information has been officially logged into Norma's database. You are the second 'S' level after Lu Mingfei in forty years. As the principal, I am very happy. I came here to inform you that Norma has selected your courses for you. You can check them on your phone. Teacher Masashi Toyama has opened a 'General Knowledge' course specifically for you. Report to the health room every Tuesday. I have my 'Dragon Genealogy' class next week. I hope you won't be late."

"Okay." Eiry still nodded obediently. The girl looked very quiet and had nothing to do with the "terrorists" who destroyed the Lionheart Society.

After nodding to several important students including Eiry, Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang and Caesar, Ange said a few words to Professor Guderian and Professor Manstein, and then left in a hurry, as if he had come here just to see Eiry and inform her of her course schedule.

"This girl is really 'S' grade!" Professor Manstein watched Ange's back as she walked away, and whispered to Professor Guderian, "Who is she? Why does the principal value her so much?"

"Keep it a secret." Professor Guderian laughed.

"You old man, when did you learn to keep secrets?" Professor Manstein glared, as if he was very bothered by his old friend's behavior of hiding things from him. "When Lu Mingfei was enrolled in the school, she wanted to mention it to me ten thousand times every day. Now that a new 'S' grade has arrived in the academy, you are silent? Why, just because this girl is not your student?"

"Hey, you're really wrong. Eri is really my student... at least half of her is." Professor Guderian smiled proudly, "You don't understand. I really want to share this with someone, but I really can't. Eri's affairs are strictly confidential. This is the principal's personal instruction."

"So mysterious?" Professor Manstein also raised his eyebrows. "You said half of them are your students. What do you mean by that?"

"Eri is Japanese, a student I picked up for free. The principal asked me to teach her with Professor Toyama Masashi." Professor Guderian almost let the cat out of the bag. He put his arm around Professor Manstein's shoulders and gave his old friend a thumbs up. "I can't tell you the rest, but Eri is a genuine 'S' grade, there is no doubt about that. She is very strong and very special. She is the most talented student I have met in all these years... Well, Mingfei is also the most talented."

"You must have stepped on dog shit, you're so lucky? The principal assigned such an important student to you?" Professor Manstein still doubted his old friend's teaching ability. "So, the rumors uploaded on the Night Watchman forum that Lu Mingfei and this girl are having an affair are also true?"

"What do you mean by having an affair? What do you mean by rumors? Those are the facts." Professor Guderian cleared Lu Mingfei's name. "Lu Mingfei and Eri are already married in Japan. The principal, the bride's and groom's families all witnessed their wedding. It was truly a touching love story... Anyway, my teaching career after all these years has finally seen the light of day. As long as Eri graduates successfully, maybe I'll become the head of the Kassel Academy faculty. By then, you, the discipline committee member with the vice-president as your father, will have to rely on me for protection... Hahahahahaha!"

The little old man Guderian could not hide his thoughts at all. When he said this, he patted Manstein's shoulder hard and laughed uncontrollably. Manstein had a look of resentment on his face. It felt like an old friend you have known for many years who has always been a good-for-nothing suddenly won five million, married a beautiful wife, and his house happened to be demolished... All the good luck fell on him at once, and you could only watch and endure him showing off in front of you. Anyone who encounters this will feel speechless.

Lu Mingfei gestured to Huili and Chu Zihang, and walked towards Caesar.

"Boss, I'm sorry." Lu Mingfei scratched the back of his head.

"Why are you apologizing suddenly?" Caesar glanced at Lu Mingfei.

"This is your last free day at the academy. It should be very meaningful for you and the student union." Lu Mingfei said, "You must be very dissatisfied with this result."

"There's nothing to be dissatisfied about. It's my own decision to admit defeat. I, or even the entire student council, can't possibly defeat Uesugi Eri. We all know that." Caesar shook his head, his face expressionless. "The disparity in strength is an objective reason, but it's not my style to keep admitting defeat. I will enter the executive department before you, and I will make up for the gap in strength with time and experience."

"Boss, you are worthy of being the boss. Nothing can truly defeat you." Lu Mingfei sighed.

Caesar's eyes twitched. He didn't know whether Lu Mingfei's words were just casual remarks or had some deeper meaning. Caesar looked into Lu Mingfei's eyes but could not see anything unusual.

"I'm not someone who is so stubborn that I won't admit defeat. You and Chu Zihang have both surpassed me, I admit that, but Caesar Gattuso can't deny himself." Caesar nodded to Lu Mingfei, "I'm glad to have opponents like you. Otherwise, life at Kassel Academy would be very boring. If there's nothing else, the student union will have to do a post-war summary."

After every day of freedom, the student council will review the battle, no matter whether they won or lost... But it is not difficult to imagine that this year's post-war review will probably be the most painful one in history. Today's student council suffered a crushing defeat, which is enough to imagine how negative the atmosphere in the meeting will be. The topic is probably all about Eri, the new "S"-level person.

With the help of medical staff, all members of the student union regained their ability to move. These guys in crimson combat uniforms had lost the fighting spirit they had when they first arrived. They were silent, like eggplants hit by frost.

Caesar took the lead and walked towards the Amber Hall. His back was still straight, but Lu Mingfei felt that the man looked unusually tired from behind. Even when he was being hunted by the underworld in Japan, Caesar had never been as negative as he was today.

The reason for negativity should not be just today's failure.

"Senior Sister will be fine." Lu Mingfei shouted to Caesar's back.

Caesar didn't look back, but his steps paused obviously. It was obvious that Lu Mingfei's words touched upon something in his heart.

"My intuition is always accurate." Lu Mingfei added to Caesar's back, "I will remember what happened in Japan for the rest of my life. We are brothers. You and my senior brother have helped me a lot, so just ask when you need me. I will stand by you no matter what happens, and the same goes for my senior brother."

This time Caesar paused for a long time. After nodding, he walked away quickly, as if he was afraid that Lu Mingfei would promise him more.

……

"Overwhelmed Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang and Caesar, and attracted the principal to come out. The strongest rookie king in the history of Kassel Academy... the new Freedom Day champion Uesugi Eryi, where is the bottom line?"

Finkel lay on the upper bunk, reading aloud the front-page headlines of today's campus newspaper.

Chapter 928: Junior Sisters of Shilan Middle School

"What do you mean by where is the bottom line?" Lu Mingfei, who was in the lower bunk, shouted in dissatisfaction, "These unscrupulous media only know how to slander and spread rumors. Adding the word 'strength' will kill you! It's as if Eri is a girl with no moral integrity and no bottom line!"

"Junior brother, you know that these days, if a news headline doesn't have some gimmicks, it won't get any clicks." Finkel explained to Lu Mingfei in a "I understand" tone, "And it's just two words omitted, it doesn't constitute slander or rumor-mongering. This year's campus newspaper has been very restrained. The wording in previous years was so exaggerated."

"You still say that this is the work of your paparazzi!" Lu Mingfei glared at Finkel fiercely, "God will punish you, you bitch. Today is the day for me to enforce justice on behalf of God, so that you won't continue to cause trouble!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, Junior Brother!" Finkel waved his hands quickly to distance himself from the matter. "This year it really has nothing to do with me. You know that our News Department is a subsidiary department of the Student Union, but you have also seen the performance of the Student Union this year. It can almost be said to be the worst in history. Under such a shameful situation, our News Department must avoid suspicion. So today's campus newspaper has long been outsourced by us."

"I've heard that you have to avoid suspicion when judging awards, but I've never heard that you have to avoid suspicion even if you perform poorly." Lu Mingfei sighed, "This year, the boss is really in trouble."

"It doesn't matter how well Caesar performs, even if he loses gloriously. History will only remember the victors." Finkel said, "But your girlfriend is really fierce. You, Chu Zihang and Caesar all admitted defeat this year. The whole school is saying that the three giants of Cassell College were scared by a girl."

"What do you mean by little girlfriend? Eri is my legally wedded wife. When she reaches the legal age, I will bring her home to get the marriage certificate!" Lu Mingfei corrected, "But luckily Eri won the championship. If the boss or senior brother had won the championship by accident, my boast of letting Eri and Xia Mi live in Norton Hall for another year would have been ruined. How embarrassing that would have been."

"It doesn't matter anymore." Finkel said, "Junior brother, you know that there is already a rumor in the academy that you have been labeled a gigolo."

"Fuck, didn't I get to S-rank with real effort? How come I'm a gigolo?" Lu Mingfei said angrily, "And didn't I admit defeat this time? If I don't admit defeat and really fight with Eri... humph, I won't fight with Eri. A gigolo is a gigolo. The rich women on the list can drive luxury cars and own villas. I'm a gigolo and I'm proud of it. Those guys who want to be gigolos, Eri doesn't even look down on them."

"Oh, so you accept the title of gigolo, right?" Finkel nodded and took out a recorder from his chest pocket. "There aren't many interviewees as frank as you. Thanks to you, we have news material for tomorrow."

"Who is the interviewer? Who agreed to the interview? Damn you, you bitch, you are playing dirty tricks! It's time to take you in! Fuck you, old mu..." Lu Mingfei spoke to Finkel in a loud voice.

"There's nothing we can do. Right now, your news is the most eye-catching in the academy. If you don't let us interview Eri directly, then you have to sacrifice yourself. You should also think about your brother's career once in a while." Finkel said, "Alright, alright, junior brother, don't be crazy. I'm not a selfish person. I'm thinking about you. I specially ordered a family bucket for you... The mashed potatoes are yours, but the pistol leg must be left to me."

“Although, I probably won’t have time to eat this time.” Lu Mingfei said casually, “I’ll be leaving soon. Brother, you can enjoy the whole family bucket by yourself.”

"Are you leaving?" Finkel was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly turned over from the upper bunk and looked down, and saw Lu Mingfei on the lower bunk stuffing things into the suitcase.

“Junior brother, why are you packing? Are you really leaving? Moving to Norton Hall to live with your girlfriend? You don’t have to be cautious with Xia Mi there?” Seeing Lu Mingfei packing his luggage, Finkel was completely defeated. “Junior brother, you are so disloyal, really disloyal! I have given so many family buckets to the dogs, how can you have the nerve to leave your senior brother alone in an empty nest? You are a gigolo! A coward!”

"I know you're anxious, but don't worry." Lu Mingfei sighed, "Don't worry, I'm not going to Norton Hall. I just need to go back home, so pack your things. If I really go to Norton Hall, I promise to find you a British roommate to accompany you first. British roommates are the most considerate."

"Going home? So suddenly?" Finkel came up and asked, "How long do you plan to be home for?"

"Getting ready to go...why are you so concerned about my schedule?" Lu Mingfei glanced at Finkel warily, "Are you a pervert?"

"How can I let you go for two years if I want you to be a pervert? If I wanted you to be a pervert, your butt would have been swollen a long time ago!" Finkel sneered, "I'm just curious about how long you'll be gone. I'll be alone in my empty room for a few days. And you'll definitely take Uesugi Eri with you when you leave. Our news department will be short of materials, so I'll be very free."

"If you are really free, I will give you my 'Seer' account. Go to Cross Planet and help me get ten shiny Pipis. I will be useful to you." Lu Mingfei said casually, "I don't know exactly how long I will be back. Don't worry, I will bring you a bucket of our Chinese food before you come, so that you can taste the difference between the taste in the United States."

"No, Junior Brother, I really have to stay in the dormitory alone. I'm claustrophobic, you know?" Finkel hung upside down on the bed, pulling Lu Mingfei's arm, "If you really want to be gone for too long, you can take me with you. I won't cause you any trouble. You're going home to see your uncle and aunt this time, right? Your uncle and aunt must miss me, too."

“No, Brother, what are you doing?” Lu Mingfei wanted to push away Finkel’s hand, but he held it too tightly. He could only look at this scoundrel helplessly, “Why do you have to stick to me? You weren’t like this before. Brother, are you spying on me? You’re so scary!”

"How could I not!" Finkel was visibly more anxious, as if something had been discovered. "What is there to spy on? Why are you so narcissistic? You can go to China, but I can't. Your home is in China, and China is my second home. Why can't I go there?"

"It's not that you can't go..." Lu Mingfei seemed to remember something, and suddenly his eyes turned. He said to Finkel, "Brother, if you are really bored, you can come to our place, but you have to do something for me. I will let my aunt and others entertain you."

"Tell me what's the matter first. I don't like being treated as a laborer." Finkel became arrogant.

"Don't worry, it's not hard labor." Lu Mingfei assured, "Aren't you bored? I'll let you go on a trip and help you find a pretty girl."

"A beautiful girl?" Finkel's eyes lit up. "How beautiful is she?"

"Are you satisfied that the girlfriend of Gattuso's heir is so beautiful?" Lu Mingfei said.

"The girlfriend of the heir of the Gattuso family... isn't that Nono? Why don't you just say she's your senior sister? Why do you have to go through so much trouble?" Finkel rolled his eyes. "Although Nono has a bit of a stubborn personality, her looks are still fine. I'd be happy to meet a pretty girl of Nono's level."

“Okay, then the task of finding Senior Sister is left to you.” Lu Mingfei patted Finkel’s shoulder, entrusting him with an important task.

"Wait a minute, the beautiful girl you're talking about is Nono herself?" Finkel finally realized, "She has a boyfriend and I can't pick her up, and isn't it Caesar's job to find her? If Caesar can't find her, how can I find her?"

"Oh, you can ask the principal, or Norma. Senior sister has been missing for so long, and the college has not responded. This means that the top management must know about this. Senior brother, you are well-informed and capable. You will definitely be able to find out if you take action." Lu Mingfei immediately greeted her with a wave of flattery. "If you find senior sister, take her to China. Junior brother will provide you with food and accommodation, and take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks. If you can't find senior sister, you'd better stay in the dormitory. I won't take you to play in China."

"Junior brother, you..." Finkel wanted to say something, but Lu Mingfei obviously didn't give him the chance.

"Then it's settled, brother. Find me and I, and we'll meet in China." Lu Mingfei picked up the suitcase and rushed out without saying a word.

Just then, the family bucket was delivered. Fingle took out his pistol leg and started biting it while complaining to the empty dormitory.

"Junior brother, you really left me with a big problem!"

……

Cathay Pacific, O'Hare T5, on a flight from Chicago to China.

Eri was still sitting by the window. She was looking at the white clouds and the vast sea outside the window with a focused and curious expression. Every time she went out, she would observe the world carefully. Everything in this world was unknown to this girl, and she seemed never to get tired of it.

The person sitting next to Eri was naturally Lu Mingfei, and Chu Zihang was sitting behind them... This was Chu Zihang's little trick. If the seat was next to Lu Mingfei, they would have to be separated by an aisle, and it would be awkward if it was in the front. The back seat would be very convenient, and gossips could observe the couple's every move at any time.

"Senior Brother, didn't Xia Mi come with us?" Lu Mingfei turned his head and asked Chu Zihang who was sitting in the back seat.

"No, the executive department assigned her a task." Chu Zihang paused, "I don't want to involve her. I have been deliberately avoiding discussing this matter with Xia Mi during this period of time."

"Oh, I understand." Lu Mingfei nodded. "By the way, Senior Brother, how many of your high school classmates are you still in touch with?"

"High school classmates?" Chu Zihang's face flashed with a trace of anxiety. "In fact, we haven't been in touch much. It's just that occasionally someone will send some greetings during festivals, and I will reply as a courtesy. I don't reply to those group messages."

"Oh, same as me." Lu Mingfei said.

"I remember there was a girl named Liu Miaomiao. I remember she was in your class, right?" Chu Zihang recalled. "Every Christmas she would ask me how I was doing and when I would be returning home. I didn't know how to answer her, so I just said that I was considering settling abroad after graduation."

"Liu Miaomiao, she's from our class." Lu Mingfei smiled, "Brother, you can even forget this. You two performed on the same stage in the school's New Year's Day performance before."

"Is there?" Chu Zihang seemed to have such a person in his memory, maybe a girl who played the piano, but he didn't have a deep impression of her.

"Yes, yes, senior brother, you don't know, at that time, the whole Shilan Middle School was saying that you two were a golden boy and a jade girl, with a great image and good grades. It's just that every time you finished your performance, you just bowed and left the stage." Lu Mingfei thought that Liu Miaomiao had a crush on you before, but he didn't say it clearly, instead he covered it up, "Sometimes Liu Miaomiao would greet me, maybe she is just like that, she cares more about the friendship between classmates, and she will say hello to everyone she knows."

"Maybe." This reminder made Chu Zihang remember, "Oh yes, Chen Wenwen is also in your class. Every World Book Day, she would send me a link to share a good book, but those literary works are not the type I can read. Maybe she sends it to everyone."

"Chen Wenwen is the president of the literature club." Lu Mingfei thought to himself, Senior Brother, you are really a blockhead.

Chen Wenwen and Liu Miaomiao, they were the goddesses of Shilan Middle School in the past. Ordinary losers would rarely have time to pay attention to them. These girls greet you every year, don’t you know what they are thinking?

Under what circumstances would a girl take the initiative to greet a boy she is not that familiar with?

You can figure it out just by thinking with your butt.

Laughing at Chu Zihang in his heart, Lu Mingfei casually opened his QQ account which he hadn't logged into for a long time, skipped a bunch of unread messages, and opened the pages of Chen Wenwen and Liu Miaomiao... Then his fingers froze.

"The other party recommended a book to you called Sputnik Lovers."

"I've been reading this book recently. It's well written, with delicate emotions that make me feel involved. I cried a few times while reading it."

"Mingfei, are you very busy recently? I see you are rarely online. Life in the United States is very different from that in China. It's great. If I have the chance, I would also like to experience campus life abroad."

"You haven't replied for a long time. Do you think I'm a bit noisy? Well, I'll try not to bother you as much as possible in the future."

This is an unread message in Chen Wenwen’s chat box, and the date is this year’s World Book Day.

"Merry Christmas. You are in the United States, so Christmas is equivalent to the Chinese New Year in China, right?"

"Does your school have a Christmas dance? Girls should be required to wear dresses. I heard that girls in foreign countries have very slender calves, and they look good in dresses... Are there any girls who are good at playing the piano?"

"If you come back, you can send me a message. We can get together occasionally if we have time."

This is Liu Miaomiao’s unread message, dated Christmas last year.

Not only that, but there is also…

"Do you have a girlfriend in America?"

"Are you so busy with your studies that you don't have time to reply to a message? Or are you too embarrassed to tell your girlfriend?"

"It's time to break up with your girlfriend. The atmosphere abroad is not very open. It is said that if you date for more than a month, you are out of date."
