Chapter 1036 Time of Change

Lu Mingfei returned to the tent in a daze, and glanced outside before entering. It did feel like post-disaster reconstruction. Many rescue team volunteers wearing red armbands could be seen running back and forth on the campus.

The place they are now in is a large open area in front of the Hall of Valor Square. There are many tents set up everywhere. It should be a temporary resting spot for students to avoid secondary collapse after the aftershocks. Long queues can be seen everywhere, and there are either Whether it was lunch delivery or a centralized physical examination point, idle students gathered in groups and chatted, with seriousness written on everyone's face.

"The degree of damage to the campus after this earthquake was not serious, but many buildings near the epicenter of the earthquake collapsed. Most of them were potentially dangerous buildings that were not directly demolished after the last disaster but were repaired for the second time. Fortunately, The good thing is that no one suffered serious casualties."

Lin Nian, who said this slowly, entered the tent and saw Xia Mi and Xia Wang. When his eyes met Xia Wang's blue eyes, the boy's eyes lit up and he was about to crawl towards Lin Nian, but his clothes Xia Mi was immediately grabbed by the back of the collar, like a dishonest kitten by the scruff of the neck.

"Why are you here?" Lin Nian frowned slightly.

"He ran out to play with you, and then I ran out to find her, and then we were here." Xia Mi explained very concisely.

Lin Nian glanced at Xia Wang, as if he didn't know whether he was catnip in the eyes of the other party. He always felt that the other party was full of curiosity and favorability towards him for no reason. Could it be that he himself was still the king of children? Doesn’t he even know the label?

"Go back to Norton Hall with your sister first. I have something to talk to Lu Mingfei alone." Lin Nian fumbled around in his pocket and finally took out a lollipop and threw it over. Xia Wang caught it He glanced at Lin Nian hesitantly.

"Give it back to me if you look at it again." Lin Nian said calmly.

Xiawang became honest and followed the helpless Xia Mi out of the tent with a lollipop. Although he was nominally Xia Mi's brother, no one really regarded him as the older one, not even himself. Natsumi-sama, who calls in a low voice most of the time.

Lu Mingfei blinked and watched the two siblings leave, then looked at Lin Nian and asked, "Why do you carry a lollipop with you? It's strawberry flavored."

"Is this what you should be concerned about?"

"Okay, let me change my words." Lu Mingfei scratched his head and asked tentatively, "Why does that kid Xia Wang appear here? Isn't he being supervised by the enforcement department? He won't get out of trouble by running around like this. matter?"

"Now is a special period. According to normal logic, if he escaped from the supervision area privately, then the enforcement department will definitely pursue him to the end, because this is a blatant violation of the confidentiality treaty. But the current situation is force majeure, and the supervision area itself They no longer exist." Lin Nian put his right hand on Lu Mingfei's back and led him forward.

"What does it mean that the supervision area is no longer there?" Lu Mingfei didn't understand.

"The Garden of Eden has now disappeared in last night's earthquake. The building collapsed completely. Now it is completely in ruins. Most of the surrounding apple orchards have been buried." Lin Nian said, "Both Shao Nanqin and Xia Wang Being considered a fast runner, Norma seemed to have released the electronic access control of their room at the same time as the earthquake, so there was no big problem."

"It's really a ghost, so what happened? An earthquake? I don't believe it. This is not at the junction of tectonic plates." Lu Mingfei raised his head and became curious. Although he had just woken up from a dream and asked questions, he didn't know. But the person next to me must know everything. It would be right to ask him.

"Well, someone just wanted to steal something from the ice cellar and was stopped."

"I heard from my junior sister that Norma's alarm last night reported a 'dragon invasion'. Could it be?"

"That's about it." Lin Nian nodded, "The alarm was so loud last night that it didn't wake you up?"

"No, I sleep like crazy, you don't know that." Lu Mingfei's eyes rolled around, he bit himself to death and was reincarnated as a dead pig.

Lin Nian stopped and looked him up and down. This look made Lu Mingfei feel uncomfortable, because the other person really seemed to be examining how many ounces of pork he could cut off his body.

"Being able to sleep soundly amidst the shock waves and heat released by 'Jun Yan' is a talent." Lin Nian patted Lu Mingfei's back with one hand.

Lu Mingfei felt a little uncomfortable being photographed. He glanced warily at the good brother next to him, and then at the place he was taken to. There was really nothing in the tent, except for a tent covered with white sheets. The wooden bed was the one in front of Lin Nian and Lu Mingfei.

"What are you doing?" Lu Mingfei became alert for the second time, his butt muscles tightening.

"Have you considered lying down a little longer?"

"To tell the truth, I can't sleep anymore, I'm already full," Lu Mingfei glanced at the good brother next to him suspiciously.

"Oh, I just let you lie down for a while, I didn't let you sleep." Lin Nian looked at him.

"Why am I lying down when I'm fine?" Lu Mingfei smiled awkwardly but politely.

"Let me check your body." Lin Nian said seriously.

Before he could react, Lu Mingfei was thrown down on the bed. His first reaction was to pull up his pants and thought to himself, what the fuck, the hero of the fanfic is actually me, but unfortunately he is the hero of the fandom section of the forum.

But before the ruthless hands came to pull off his pants, the back of his head was held down. Before Lu Mingfei could even think about what kind of posture this was, he felt a chill all over his body and couldn't help but shudder. (Definitely not good.) It was like a cold current swept from his neck to the soles of his feet, making him think of the washed pork on the chopping board. Every inch was washed clean by the high-pressure water gun.

He had a strange illusion that the person holding the back of his head had changed. The uncomfortable feeling that made him feel cold and unfamiliar definitely did not come from Lin Nian, so he wanted to turn his head to see who was standing next to him. Who is he, but his head is pressed tightly and he cannot move.

"Okay." Lin Nian let go of the back of Lu Mingfei's head, "You should be fine."

Lu Mingfei turned over like a kite. He didn't succeed. He raised his right hand and stared at Lin Nian beside him for a few seconds. He glanced around the empty tent in confusion, "What do you mean I don't have any problems? What problems can I have?" "

"Seeing that you slept so deeply last night, it feels a little abnormal. I suspect that someone has tampered with your head or something." Lin Nian waved his hand, "Some dragons can tamper with the brains of hybrids, and those Those who have been tricked don’t even know it until they die.”

"Isn't it that scary?" Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment and laughed.

Lin Nian looked at Lu Mingfei and was silent for a moment, but decided to remind him, "In the next few days, pay more attention to the situation around you, mainly the people around you. Those friends you have always known, if they have abnormal personality changes, , just stay away from them or tell me in time.”

"What is an abnormal change in personality?" Lu Mingfei wondered.

"Yeah." Lin Nian was startled for a moment, but he was asked this question. After hesitating for a while, he said, "For example, he suddenly started to speak mysteriously and unpredictably, like to say half of the words and leave the other half out, or simply not speak human words at all?"

After he finished speaking, he found Lu Mingfei looking at him strangely.

"I" Lin Nian subconsciously wanted to say something that I really can't fully explain to you, but he was speechless before he could say anything because he saw the blond girl squatting under the wooden bed holding her calves and laughing at him.

"You feel weird." Lu Mingfei complained softly.

"Tsk." Lin Nian raised his head and gently stroked his forehead as he felt a headache, "I'm sure your brain is okay and I won't talk about this."

"You're the one with the problem!" Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes and replied to Lin Nian, "So what's going on outside now? As for what happened just now, are those volunteers yours?"

Lin Nian paused and looked back at the tent door, "This is what I want to warn you about. There may be many similar people coming to you during this period. I advise you not to be blocked by them. Or don’t get caught up in their fanaticism.”

"Fanatical mood, do you mean an uprising?" Lu Mingfei was stunned, "I heard the junior sister and the group of people just talking about it, as if it was obvious that the investigation team was going to mess with us. Now, don’t we support our troops to protect ourselves?”

"I'm very surprised that you can say the words "support the troops and protect yourself", but you still need to think carefully about the current situation." Lin Nian said lightly, "Now this stall has summoned a large number of excited Kassel College backbones. what you up to?"

"Needless to say, it must be." Lu Mingfei opened his mouth and then fell silent.

Lin Nian glanced at him and said, "Are you full, or am I full?"

"I'm full, I'm full." Lu Mingfei touched his belly angrily. He was indeed full.

After digesting a little of the food in his stomach and the emotions in his head, Lu Mingfei left a few drops of cold sweat on his back, because he just realized how bizarre the situation outside the tent just now was, and how he was so close to doing something so stupid. .

What was he going to do after agreeing to the enthusiastic group of students? Are we really going to start a rebellion? Led by him, Lu Mingfei, in the name of resisting power, he arrested all the investigation teams in the college and tied them up in the Hall of Heroes to read out their crimes in front of all the teachers and students in the school?

What a joke.

This is not called organized protests and marches, this is called Lu Mingfei, his uncle, who started a rebellion and led a group of elite mixed-races headed by him to start anew and prepare to open up China in the secret party.

There can be things like parades and collective student protests, but the leaders of this group of people must not be people like Lu Mingfei and Lin Nian, because once they really enter the group and become the talkers, the whole thing will There will be very subtle changes in the nature of things.

"You've been slapped with so many labels, and you can't wait to 'support the army to protect yourself'? That's not how you seek death." Lin Nian said, "Someone is inciting confrontation in the college, and is preparing to let those students whose emotions are aroused We set up a fight, and then hammered down the unfounded charges against us. The investigation team wanted to see us take the wrong path under their stimulation and pressure. Once this happens, what will we do if we are swept up by this wave of emotions? As things go by, our position becomes even more untenable at the hearing the day after tomorrow.”

"Is there a bad person among the students?" Lu Mingfei shrank his head. He felt that something was wrong with the junior who held his hand just now!

"It may also be that we are simply induced. Young people of our age, who are still students, are particularly easy to be incited by the so-called 'general trend'. This is especially true in Cassel College, which values ​​collective honor. The experience and lessons of history have been This proves this point. What they just said outside is actually just, but things done in the name of justice are not necessarily rational. Similar student spontaneous protest groups have gone to Norton Hall many times You've already found me and Chu Zihang, it's only a matter of time before you find me." Lin Nian said slowly while looking at Lu Mingfei sitting on the bed.

"Is the investigation team so insidious?" Lu Mingfei smelled the conspiracy of the adult world.

"What's going on here? It's just an idle move by the investigation team at best." Lin Nian said, "Originally, the situation was overwhelmingly unfavorable to us, but now things have turned around. No one expected last night's accident. Now the school There was chaos here, and the supervision over us was much looser, otherwise I wouldn’t have appeared on the stage so early.”

"Oh yes, where have you been hiding the past few days? I heard that Norma didn't even find you." Lu Mingfei asked subconsciously.

"Don't ask." Lin Nian refused to answer the question. He had a lot of gossip about him, and he didn't want to carry a lot more for no reason.

"If you don't ask, don't ask. Are senior brother and Su Xiaoqiang at the Norton Hall now? Are they okay?"

"It's nothing. The Lion Heart Club is currently meeting internally to discuss how to gain an advantage in the hearing the day after tomorrow. I heard that this hearing will be a traditional jury system. Tenured professors, elders, and department heads will all attend. The scale is not large. It’s small and the magnitude is sufficient.”

"Isn't that the end of the game? Everyone from the organizer to the referee belongs to others, how can we fight?" Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded.

But suddenly, he remembered an important thing that he had ignored, "By the way, what is the subject of the hearing? Is it to accuse us of causing trouble during our two private operations in our hometown and Chicago? I will go to the hearing then. Do you need to wear formal clothes when you are going to be tried? If you lose the lawsuit, you will not be forced to drop out of school, right? Will you be brainwashed by Masashi Toyama's words?"

Lin Nian glanced at Lu Mingfei, who was confused and said, "That's not true. I should be the only one standing in the accused box at the hearing."

"Why are you the only one? They think you are the leader of our actions, so they want to scare the monkeys?" Lu Mingfei wondered.

"No, the theme set by the school board of directors for this hearing is to conduct a public trial and ruling within the secret party on the suspicion of my dangerous bloodline." Lin Nian said.

The tent fell silent.

Lu Mingfei suddenly didn't speak for a while. After a long time, he raised his hand and asked seriously, "Is the school board's mother a wholesaler?"

Lin Nian did not answer this question.

Lu Mingfei didn't realize until now why the previous students' reaction was so huge. It was as if the investigation team had killed their mothers. It's no wonder that many students wanted to attack the investigation team. This was simply making trouble without reason. !

He really wanted to say this, but he and Lin Nian looked at each other for a while and couldn't say it.

Is it really unreasonable?

"During the course of the hearing, it is likely that the topic will be extended to judge many people based on me, including President Angers and Professor Manstein. It was the two of them who invited me to enter the college and introduced dangerous bloodlines. Crimes are always serious matters. In addition, there are people around me, Su Xiaoqiang, Chu Zihang and you. They seem to want to play with the continuous sitting system. "

"What are you trying to do?" Lu Mingfei no longer cared about sitting together or not, and couldn't help but said, "Who the hell are you going to slay the dragon when they punish you? Can't they see what you did from the beginning to the end? ? You don’t burn bridges like this.”

"Not counting burning bridges, I have never been the secret party's only choice for slaying the dragon. I have always forced them to choose me. That is because I have done too many things and I am too quick, so I have attracted their attention. It's normal to have doubts and fears." Lin Nian turned his head and looked at the white candle burning in the corner of the tent.

"In the mixed race world, if you do well, you will be sought after. If you do too well, then you should bear the risk of being questioned. This is indeed in line with universal rationality. They have already shown signs of doubting me, but This time it finally broke out, and the only thing to blame is that I didn't restrain and hide it. I thought you always understood this, Lu Mingfei."

Lu Mingfei looked at Lin Nian, who also looked at him, as if he understood what he was saying, and he shuddered slightly.

"I have a problem with this hearing, the timing and the targeting is so weird, I don't know what the Board of Regents is thinking, or I don't know what Frost Gattuso is thinking. But I just know There is also an extremely dangerous dragon king who is active in the dark and carrying out plans that no one knows about now." Lin Nian said, "If something goes wrong at the hearing."

"What could go wrong?" Lu Mingfei said inexplicably. Perhaps even he didn't hear the faint irritation in his voice. "Are you overthinking it? I think the school board most likely wants to Knock on you. No, they have no reason to shovel you out at this time! Unless they are really stupid. Isn’t the enemy of the Secret Party always the Dragon King? You have killed two Dragon King and you still think there is something wrong with you. Is that really true? Is there shit in your head?"

Lin Nian said nothing, because everything Lu Mingfei said was logically correct. But often there are things in this world that are completely illogical, at least on the surface, and may coincide with some deep-seated truths, but if you can stand there After all, there are only a handful of people on the first floor, and every one of them is just a chess piece behind the scenes.

Is the school board really unable to bear Angers's gradual overreach and seizure of power? Does it want to clean out this old guy and his forces?

Someone wants to use the hearing to delay the actions of Lin Nian and others, making them tired of dealing with internal accusations, thereby delaying another big plan that is quietly underway?

Or is it that the school board wants to use its power to suppress others, and just like Lu Mingfei said, it will launch a high-profile attack, integrate internal forces, and forcefully hold Angers and his faction in its hands?

Is it more likely that all this is actually an orthodox conspiracy? After all, the overt accusations against Lin Nian only started in recent years. Orthodoxy has recently cooperated and communicated with the Secret Party. Maybe Orthodoxy has begun to infiltrate the upper echelons of the Secret Party. The first step is to turn this against The 'S' class marked with 'month' should be eradicated?

There are many logical conjectures, but the lack of information is extremely serious. They have been tied up here by the hearing and have no energy to verify these conjectures that seem reasonable, but require a lot of evidence to support them if they are pushed further.

Lu Mingfei lowered his head and remained silent. His mind, which had been at a standstill behind Lin Nian and Chu Zihang, pointing and poking where to hit, finally began to turn quietly, but it might be a little awkward to turn around at this time. A little late.

"Lu Mingfei." Lin Nian raised his right hand, paused for a moment before landing on the other person's shoulder and patted him, "Be careful before and after the hearing. I'm not in a good state right now. You are the only one among the students. 'S' Class."

"What do you mean you are not in good condition?" Lu Mingfei looked up into his eyes and asked in a low voice.

But he immediately shut up, because now that he was thinking about it, he had already guessed the meaning of this sentence without being reminded by the other party. He looked at Lin Nian a few more times and found no obvious trauma on the other party's body, but the other party's His expression didn't look like he was joking, which made him clenched the five-finger cloth hanging down at the corner of his clothes.

"I have a hunch that something bad is going to happen in the near future." Lin Nian said, "This time is not like the time with the King of Bronze and Fire. This time our enemies are hidden deeper and plotting. For a long time, I don’t necessarily guarantee that I will be able to escape unscathed from what is about to happen, nor can I guarantee that I can take on all the conspiracies.”

"Are you serious?"

"I've joked with you many times, but not this time." Lin Nian said.

Lu Mingfei didn't speak. He and Lin Nian looked at each other, and it took a long time before he nodded silently.

Lin Nian stopped talking. He got the response he wanted, and finally patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder and backed away.

Perhaps Lin Nian should tell Chu Zihang these words. The president of the Lion Heart Society holds great power, is more experienced than Lu Mingfei, and has a calm and sophisticated personality. Most importantly, he is a calm killer, but in the end he stood in this tent It was Lu Mingfei who was approached by Lin Nian.

There were only two of them in the tent, and this conversation was also a conversation between the two of them, and it could only be a conversation between them.

As for the reason, only the two of them know each other deepest in their hearts.

"After waiting for these two days, the hearing is inevitable. Don't worry. Someone is already making preparations for this." Lin Nian raised his hand and took Lu Mingfei's arm to lead him out of bed, " You first go to the Norton Hall to meet with Chu Zihang and the others, and they will tell you other things that I haven't made clear."

"What about you now?" Lu Mingfei, who was walking towards the tent door, turned and looked directly at Lin Nian.

"I still have to deal with some things." Lin Nian didn't look at him, just waved his hand and started to drive people away, "Let's go, be careful on the way. The people of the investigation team are still secretly there. Don't be stopped on the way and take advantage of them." Luan Kang left."

Lu Mingfei said heartily: Do you think I'm some kind of girl who's stuck on the road? After being knocked away once in the street, can I still be the second, third, fourth, or fifth time?

But now he was not in a good mood due to the sudden information. He couldn't say anything. He silently opened the tent door and walked out. During this period, he looked back at Lin Nian, who had his back to him. In the end, he didn't know anything. Didn't say he left.

After watching Lu Mingfei leave, Lin Nian coughed inexplicably.

Anyone who knows him well knows that he rarely coughs.

The white sheets on the wooden bed were stained with a pool of thick black blood. It was said that the blood could only barely find a few strands of dark red in the thick black. The moment it came into contact with the sheets, it began to corrode rapidly and melted through the wooden bed. As the rain dripped down, an indescribable smell filled the tent.

A golden fur ball rolled out from under the wooden bed to avoid the "bloody head", but before he could stand up handsomely, his back was stepped on by Lin Young's gentle foot, and "Ouch" With a soft cry, like an orange cat being held down by a ruthless big foot, it was stepped on the ground and fluttered a few times, unable to turn over successfully.

"Ah" the big blond cat put his face to the ground and turned his head to see Lin Nian, who was stepping on his back and slowly bent down to look at him.

"Hello?" she said with a wink.

"Now, can you explain what you did to me?" Lin Nian lowered his eyes and looked at this careless golden-haired bastard.

The blonde girl gave up her struggle and her face sank to the ground. She tilted her head and thought for a while with her golden eyes. Then she raised her hand and tapped her head, then stuck out her tongue at Lin Nian who was nearby. "Hey?"

ps: Banana will be late but will arrive
