Chapter 338 Everyone has a secret

On the plane, Lu Mingfei was sitting in his seat waiting for takeoff, while Eri was looking around curiously.

This was Eri's first time on a plane, and it was a completely different experience from the helicopter ride she had taken before.

"Sakura, will we encounter monsters?"

"No, this is a passenger plane, not the Victory Swallow."

"Will there be any Dead Apostles carrying bees?"

"This isn't Fate. There are no Dead Apostles."

"Is there someone down there ready to blow up the plane?"

“Don’t talk nonsense. I told you this is not an anime!” Lu Mingfei covered Eri’s mouth with his hand and looked around subconsciously.

Fortunately, Eri spoke in Japanese which they couldn't understand, and no one looked over, which made Lu Mingfei feel relieved.

After letting go of her hand, Lu Mingfei looked at Eri who was blinking and whispered, "Some things can't be said carelessly, you know? Many people are very taboo about these things."

"I want to eat the barbecue that Sakura mentioned." Eri nodded, as if she had thought of something, and raised her head to speak.

"Okay, okay, I got it. I'll take you to eat after we get off the plane. You should take a good rest now." Lu Mingfei rubbed Eri's head helplessly.

"The plane is about to take off. Please turn off your cell phones." Soon, the flight attendant's voice sounded. Lu Mingfei turned off his cell phone and closed his eyes with Eri to take a nap.

Ling, who was standing next to him, sent an email on his mobile phone, then turned off the phone and closed his eyes like Lu Mingfei.

After a long flight, the plane finally landed at the airport, and Lu Mingfei slowly woke up.

After opening his eyes, he found that Ling and Eri were already standing there waiting for him. He tidied his clothes hastily and then stood up.

"Let's go, someone is here to pick us up." Ling said, and walked towards the cabin door first.

"Someone is coming to pick us up? Who?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head, grabbed Eiry's hand and followed Ling.

He really couldn't think of anyone who would come to pick him up here. Could it be his uncle or aunt? No way, they would never waste the money.

"Hey, Mingfei, you didn't expect that, did you?"

It was not until they left the airport that Lu Mingfei saw the person who came to pick them up. He was wearing a colorful shirt and his beard was still unshaven, but his hair was combed very neatly. He looked much better than before when he was sloppy.

"Fingal? Why are you here?" Lu Mingfei looked surprised.

He felt as if he was cursed and could not escape the paparazzi wherever he went.

"Of course it's the dragon-slaying hero who's here to pick us up." Finkel smiled obscenely.

"I just happened to have nothing to do recently, so I swapped tasks with Liu Yao and went to China to have some fun. Then I heard that you were back. And since you're a local, you must take me out for some good food!"

"No? I remember your mission was in Africa, right? How could he be so blind as to exchange missions with you?" Lu Mingfei looked strange.

Because Fingel's internship performance in Japan was so disgraceful, Principal Angers did not let him pass, but instead arranged a mission for Fingel to go to Africa.

According to Principal Ange, Finkel would mess up the mission anyway, so it would be better to assign him a more difficult task. That way, even if he failed the mission, he would be considered qualified for his hard work.

But Lu Mingfei didn't expect that this guy would find a way to evade the mission and move to a more comfortable place.

"Tsk, you're going too far. Liu Yao is a member of the News Department. Isn't it normal for him to be considerate of me as the director?" Finkel said dissatisfiedly.

"Tell me, what evidence do you have against him?" Lu Mingfei would not believe Finkel's lies, he rolled his eyes at him and spoke.

"Don't slander me. How could I be such a person?" said Finkel.

"Let's go, Ling, Eri." After hearing what Finkel said, Lu Mingfei turned around and took the two girls to another direction.

"Wait! Can you give me some face?" Finkel grabbed Lu Mingfei's sleeve and spoke awkwardly.

"So, how did you convince Liu Yao? Why would he go to Africa to mine for you?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Seeing that Lu Mingfei was determined to get the answer, Finkel could only sigh and say, "It's nothing, actually. I just have a love letter between him and his senior schoolmate. I told him that if he doesn't exchange it with me, I will put his love letter on the Night Watchman forum and play it on repeat."

"Hiss! You are so despicable as expected." A trace of contempt appeared on Lu Mingfei's face. He stole the love letter of his own team member and executed him in public. This guy really has no moral integrity at all.

No wonder the first thing that all members of the news department thought of after graduation was to stay away from Finkel.

"How can this be considered despicable? It's just a simple way of controlling your subordinates." Finkel shook his head.

"After all, I'm not a devil."

"Hello devil, goodbye devil!" Lu Mingfei complained and prepared to leave again.

He decided to stay as far away from Finkel as possible, as he never knew when this guy would sell him out.

"Stop! Lu Shenren! I came here specially to pick you up!" Finkel's face changed and he stood in front of Lu Mingfei again.

“Tell me, what is your purpose? It shouldn’t just be that kind of you coming to pick me up?” Lu Mingfei asked.

"Well, actually all your photos have been sold out recently. I heard that you came to China, so I thought of secretly taking a few more photos and selling them to the girls in the college." Finkel then told the truth.

"I knew it." Lu Mingfei snorted coldly.

After Gu Ye disappeared, he replaced Gu Ye's position. Not only was he the one who beat up the whole academy on a free day, but he was also the one who was admired by the girls.

It is understandable that Finkel wants to make money by selling his photos.

"Twenty-eight, I'll agree to it."

"Sixty-four, I can only give you forty percent at most." "Thirty-seven, if you don't agree, I'll leave."

"Okay, 30-70." Finkel sighed.

"Who made me not a god like you?"

"Let's go, drive your car carefully!" Lu Mingfei, Eiry and Ling got into Finkel's car together.

Although Lu Mingfei didn't like to claim credit for Gu Ye's achievements, even if everyone thought he did it in their memory.

But it’s different for Finkel. Cheating him out of his money can only be regarded as getting rid of harm to the people!
Half an hour later, at the barbecue stall in Lu Mingfei's neighborhood.

"You're just taking me to eat this? You're a road god?" Finkel was a little surprised when he looked at the skewers in front of him.

"What else? I've been craving for this for a long time. Do you want to try it?" Lu Mingfei picked up a skewer of mutton with chopsticks and passed it to Eri.

"Try it, this is the barbecue I told you about."

Eri took a small bite and squinted her eyes happily: "Delicious!"

"Look, Eiry has no objection. When is it your turn to give your opinion?" Lu Mingfei looked at Finkel.

"Okay, so the husband and wife are bullying a bachelor like me, right?" Finkel took a sip of beer helplessly and waved to the boss.

"Boss! Give me another hundred skewers!"

"Fuck! You're such a good-for-nothing!" Lu Mingfei hurriedly tried to stop him.

"Instead of treating me to a big meal, you treat me to a barbecue and you don't even allow me to eat more?" Finkel looked resentful.

"Okay! You have to eat it all today!" Lu Mingfei said with gritted teeth.

In the evening, at the Regent Hotel.

Because he came back in such a hurry, Lu Mingfei didn't dare to go back to his aunt's house, so he could only stay here for the time being.

Finkel and Zero also lived with him, but at the end of the corridor farther away.

"Sakura, is this your hometown?" Eri asked as she sat on the edge of the bed after taking a shower.

She was still the same as before, insisting on staying in the same room with Lu Mingfei, which made Finkel cast obscene glances at her from time to time when they checked in.

But only Lu Mingfei knew that Eri did this just to make it easier for them to play games together.

"Yes, do you like it?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Yeah, just like Sakura, it gives me a very reassuring feeling." Eri nodded.

"There's nothing we can do about it. The only advantage of a small city is that it's stable," said Lu Mingfei.

"I'll take you to see my school tomorrow, so don't play games too late today."

"I understand." When she heard about school, Eri's eyes lit up and she nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Lu Mingfei, on the other hand, was lost in thought. There must be a record of Brother Gu in the school, right? After all, he was a well-known figure in the school.

At this time, in Zero's room.

Finkel put away his usual nonchalant image, a trace of seriousness appeared on his face, and he leaned against the wall and spoke coldly to Ling.

"What about the news about the prince? When can you tell me?"

"I need you to ensure that Lu Mingfei is not disturbed by other hybrid organizations while he is in China, so that I can tell you the news about the prince." Ling said.

"It's amazing. This is the first time I know that there is such an organization behind Lu Mingfei that works for him. No wonder Principal Angers told me to look forward to Lu Mingfei." Finkel sneered.

"Everyone has secrets, right? I haven't told anyone else about you and Han Gao and the others, Colonel Friedman." Zero looked at Finkel.

Boom! A burst of fierce momentum rose into the sky, and Fingel's muscles suddenly swelled. He stared at Ling for a long time, and finally retracted his momentum.

"I hope you keep your promise."

"Of course, our boss has given me the prince's information, and I can send it to you at any time." Ling nodded.

"As a token of my sincerity, I will reveal a little information to you. The administrator of the Hunter website is the same person as the prince."

Finger's pupils suddenly contracted, and after a long while he spoke faintly: "No wonder, no wonder I can't find his location every time."

"You can find him this time. After all... Lu Mingfei will run into him sooner or later. This is what the boss told me." Ling said.

"I understand. I will assist you in assisting Lu Mingfei." Finkel stood up straight, turned around and left.

Zero, on the other hand, hugged his knees and stared blankly into space, as if he was missing something.

In the Arctic, inside a research institute.

The young man tied up in a straitjacket struggled frantically, but stopped after a moment. After he stopped, the skin on his body shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When the experimenter came into the laboratory and opened the door, he saw the mummified boy. He ran towards his boss' office in panic.

"Report! Zero, Zero died suddenly!"

"What? Take me to see it!" A slovenly man with gray hair, wearing thick plastic-framed glasses, and looking elegant and refined suddenly stood up from his seat.

There was an identity badge on his chest, and the name on it was... Lu Lincheng.
