Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi stood in front of the barbecue stall with their eyes wide open, messy in the night wind.
At the small square table at the roadside stall, the handsome man with blond hair shrugged: "I thought you would prefer the atmosphere of skewers on the roadside. Oh, I just learned the word skewers from the Internet, so I should have used it in the right place.
"
Looking at the table full of lamb skewers and beef skewers, grilled with oil and sprinkled with chili noodles, the air is filled with the aroma of barbecue...
Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi gritted their teeth, showing unwillingness, and then swallowed in dismay.
Although...it really smells so good!
Xia Mi reluctantly sat on the small bench, picked up a mutton skewer with a straight face, and said seriously: "Brother Caesar, you owe us a big meal."
Caesar didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I thought you would like the surprise I prepared."
"Exactly." Xia Mi threw away the clean wooden skewer and said with disdain, "Please, for poor people like us, a seafood feast or a Man-Han banquet is a surprise."
When Caesar heard this, he said thoughtfully: "I understand, the barbecue that is a surprise to me is actually a daily routine for you, and on the contrary..."
Xia Mi suddenly choked and coughed, rolled his eyes, and secretly clenched his fists: "Damn big dog!"
Caesar smiled heartily and said: "I understand, I'll treat you to the most authentic Italian meal next time."
Xia Mi turned around: "Senior brother, is Italian food famous?"
Chu Zihang thought for a while: "The only Italian food I know is pasta and pizza."
“I can get this stuff at Pizza Hut!”
"Um, please don't compare Pizza Hut with authentic Italian food..." Caesar had no choice but to spread his hands and said, "Okay, next time it's up to you to choose."
Lu Mingfei squeezed next to Caesar, put his arms around Caesar's broad shoulders, and praised: "Boss, you are good at studying Chinese studies. I have even stolen the idea of beer and barbecue from you. Come and have a go!"
He raised a bottle of cold beer and touched it with Caesar. Caesar frowned after taking a sip. Apparently he was not used to drinking domestic beer. He wondered: "How do you usually drink this stuff?
"
Lu Mingfei also rolled his eyes: "Damn big dog!"
Caesar:"……"
"Did you gain anything from this trip home?" Chu Zihang handed Xia Mi a piece of paper, wiped her face that had turned into a little cat, and looked at Caesar.
"One thing." Caesar put down his wine glass and nodded solemnly, "When I went home this time, the ancestors of our family met me specially."
"Ancestor?"
After turning his head to look at Caesar, Lu Mingfei said in shock: "Boss, how old are your ancestors? Is it possible that they are older than Principal Angers?"
In the field of mixed races, Angers is most famous for being nearly 150 years old but still active at the forefront of the war. Other people of the same age usually lie on the hospital bed and rely on various instruments to survive.
Caesar considered his words and said: "They are a group of old monsters. The youngest ones are the same age as Principal Angers. In front of the oldest, Principal Angers is just a pink and tender teenager. They rely on the extremely tyrannical Dragon Clan
His bloodline and medical technology survive to this day, and he lives in a cryogenic ward all year round, dormant, and only comes forward when the family needs to make important decisions."
"..."×3
The reason why it is ×3 is because Eriyi has no idea about these things.
She was busy destroying the skewers that Sakura handed her, her mouth was dyed red by the spicy chili powder, she kept fanning her hands, and took another sip of cold beer, but was attracted by the strange taste of the beer.
He frowned.
Lu Mingfei raised his hand and asked the boss to bring him a bottle of orange juice, then moved the beer bottle in front of Eliyi to himself, and asked puzzledly: "Principal Ange can only be regarded as a pink teenager? How old are your ancestors?
?”
"I don't know the details, but it is said that the oldest group is over three hundred years old." Caesar said calmly.
"Mixed breeds are over three hundred years old?" Xia Mi put down the skewers and asked doubtfully, "Has your ancestor exceeded the critical blood limit?"
Facing Chu Zihang's questioning gaze, Xia Mi explained: "Generally speaking, the lifespan of pure-blooded dragons is measured in thousands, but mixed-blooded species generally do not exceed the critical blood limit and are still human in nature, so their lifespan is in the thousands.
One or two hundred is already the upper limit. Only when you exceed the critical blood limit and evolve towards a pure-blooded dragon can your lifespan be further improved."
"I didn't see any signs of dragon transformation on them." Caesar recalled, "In addition, they all relied on medical equipment to survive and usually lived in cryogenic hibernation. Even though they lived longer than the principal, in reality
The difference is huge, the principal can go to the battlefield at any time with a folding knife, but these old monsters need to drag an oxygen tube to hold a meeting."
"You don't seem to like them." Chu Zihang asked.
"I haven't liked them since I was a child." Caesar raised the beer bottle, touched it lightly with Chu Zihang, and said indifferently, "My mother's engagement with Pompeii was decided by them. I even doubted my mother's death.
It was also their decision."
"You just said Harvest... Hmm." Lu Mingfei demonstrated a qualified skewer technique for Eliyi. He took off the meat skewers that Eliyi handed to him in one gulp and said vaguely, "Harvest and you old people
Does the ancestor have anything to do with it?”
"I asked them about their attitude towards my marriage to Nono, and I found it a little strange." Caesar frowned, "Their attitude was very ambiguous and a little different from what I expected. They didn't object to it, nor did they accept it outright."
"What did you expect?" Xia Mi asked curiously.
"Of course they expressed their willingness to accept all my choices." Caesar said straightforwardly, "Last year my uncle told me that the family was willing to change the rules for me and let me choose my own wife. But now it seems that the family has either changed its attitude, or it is...
This was a scam from start to finish."
"scam?"
Caesar took a deep sip of Chinese beer and said: "Their attitude was very clear before, but now it suddenly becomes ambiguous. Something must have happened in between."
"After Lu Mingfei said something about the Chen family last time, I began to suspect that Nono was the wife chosen by the family from the beginning, just like Charlotte Chen and Hideo Uesugi."
"Based on this assumption, everything now becomes reasonable. No one is willing to change the family rules for me. Nono was originally the wife they chose for me. But now Nono has disappeared in the Arctic Circle, and they have changed
Attitude, because they never have more than one plan. In their arrangement, my wife can fill more than a dozen lists..."
Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang looked at each other. The former was silent for a moment and coughed: "Boss, if Senior Sister was really the wife chosen by the family from the beginning, would you still like her?"
This time Caesar was silent. He raised the beer bottle and drank it to the end. He looked at the empty bottle for a long time before saying:
"Do you drink this kind of wine on weekdays? Apart from putting more burden on the bladder and increasing the number of trips to the toilet, what else does this kind of wine do? It can't even make people drunk."
Chu Zihang looked at his phone and said: "The latest news, we are going to visit the vice-principal next. The vice-principal has enough whiskey to knock you down, but the question is, do you really have time to get drunk?"
Caesar raised his head and glanced at Chu Zihang, sighing: "It's not without reason that I hate you."
"You're welcome." Chu Zihang said politely.
"To be honest, after thinking about this possibility, I don't know what attitude I should take towards Nono." Caesar whispered, "To be honest, I was relieved for a moment after hearing that Nono was missing.
, at least I don’t have to face her so quickly and tell her the cruel fact that my love with her may have always been under the control of others..."
"I thought about it for a long time while I was home. Do I love Nono? The final answer is yes. I am willing to marry her and share everything else I have with her. How could I not love her?
?I have been struggling with whether my love with Nono was born under the control of others, but then it suddenly occurred to me that I might become interested in a girl by some 'coincidence', but I would never become interested in a girl because of being with a girl.
If I stay with a girl for a long time, I will fall in love with her and want to marry her home. On the contrary, if I stay with a girl for a long time, I will only get bored. Those old guys may be able to create coincidences and accidents so that I can be with Nono, but falling in love
Nono is definitely my personal choice, and it will be the same choice whether they are there or not."
Caesar whispered, almost word for word by the end, each word was so sonorous and powerful, embodying his own understanding.
Lu Mingfei silently raised the bottle, and Chu Zihang also picked up a bottle of beer that had just been opened.
Touched Sakura's wine bottle.
"Cheers." Caesar smiled, raised the bottle, clinked glasses with everyone, and then drank it all.
"By the way, what's the latest news you just mentioned?"
After putting down the wine bottles, several people looked at Chu Zihang.
Chu Zihang said calmly: "Professor Schneider just sent me a message asking us to go to the bell tower to visit the vice president immediately. He seems to have something to do with me."
"The vice-principal is looking for us?" Caesar said in surprise, "This is really strange. Let's go and have a look. As far as I know, there are far fewer students who have entered the bell tower to visit the vice-principal than who have attended the principal's afternoon tea.
.”
Xia Mi's eyes widened and he said, "Why don't you go after eating?"
Caesar glanced at the bamboo sticks piled up in front of Xia Mi in less than ten minutes, and said with a slightly twitching look on his face: "Are you not full yet?"
Xia Mi touched his flat belly and said with a guilty conscience: "50% to 50%."
"Boss, let's bring fifty skewers of beef and mutton and ten pairs of chicken wings each! What kind of seafood can be grilled?" Lu Mingfei turned around and shouted skillfully, then shrugged, "You can't go empty-handed when you visit the vice-principal, right? Trust me, this
The thieves drink the stuff."
"By the way. I heard that Principal Angers is very popular in the college. There is a club dedicated to supporting him in the school. The club is called the 'Hot Team'. Is it true?" Xia Mi suddenly asked out of curiosity.
Caesar nodded and said: "It's true. In the eyes of these guys, it doesn't matter whether the school board exists or not. As long as there is a spiritual leader like Principal Angers, the extermination of the Dragon Clan is no problem."
"Is there a Night Watch?" Xia Mi said with a diligent and gossipy face.
Lu Mingfei said cheerfully: "Yes, your senior brother Fingel is the commander-in-chief of the Night Watch, and all the members of the Information Department are the vice-principal's little fans."
After the boss brought the packed barbecue to the table, the group left the barbecue stall and embarked on the road back to school.
The bells of the bell tower traveled far away along with the summer night wind. A flock of preening pigeons hid in the shadow of the bell tower. Tonight, the round and bright moon stood on the top of the bell tower.
Tonight, the night watchman's loft alone welcomed five rare guests.
"Vice principal, is this a garbage dump for you?" Xia Mi opened the door and looked into the attic with nowhere to stay, and said silently.
This is indeed a sloppy attic. The sunny side is entirely covered with glass windows and covered with huge posters of low-cut girls. There is only an unfolded bed, a single sofa, a set of computer desks and swivel chairs, and
There are large bookshelves filled with DVDs of Western movies. Of course, there are also empty wine bottles on the floor and adult magazines scattered everywhere.
The college's hidden figure, the Night Watcher, has been living here for decades, with the home style of a dissatisfied adolescent.
The vice-principal looked at the beautiful girl, was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "Damn it, I remember I didn't call you and Eri, now it's better, my image of being wise and powerful is in vain."
Chu Zihang walked into the house, endured it for a few seconds, then walked to the trash can nearby, found a garbage bag beside the trash can, and began to clean up the empty wine bottles and fast food boxes on the ground with an expressionless face.
Caesar pondered: "Attention, all members, let us first help the vice-principal solve the private environment problem."
Everyone worked together to quickly clean the messy house spotlessly, at the cost of seven or eight full garbage bags.
The vice-principal was stunned for a moment looking at the house that was last tidy many years ago. He scratched his head and said, "It's been a long time since anyone helped me clean up the house. It makes me miss that time."
Xia Mi carried the garbage bag and threw it at the door. He turned around and asked, "Have you ever had someone help you clean up your house before?"
"Of course, that is my only student so far." The vice-principal narrowed his eyes and said, "I like to see her wearing a student skirt to help me clean the house. It makes me feel like I have really given birth to a beautiful and diligent daughter.
"
"Well, sometimes I really wish that Manstein was a cute girl instead of a greasy man who started to go bald before forty, so that I wouldn't have to worry about his future marriage arrangements."
The vice-principal sighed, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
"Vice principal, what do you want to see us for?"
After cleaning up the house, several people sat around on the sofa.
The vice-principal said: "Then let's get straight to the point without going around the bush. According to the latest news, Angers was attacked by Odin in Egypt. His life and death are unknown at the moment. We have announced this matter to the Secret Party Elders Council.
It is expected that all the elders will gather in Kassel next week to hold an elders’ meeting that has not been held in decades.”
silence.
Including Lu Mingfei, the five people fell into a brief shock. This chapter has been completed!
