Chapter 196 Made an Appointment
The class time passed quickly. A black Maybach was parked in front of Horikoshi High School, and Sakura in OL uniform stood beside the car door.
On the surrounding roads, you can see black Mercedes-Benz parked with a Maybach in the center. These are the bodyguards of the Sheqi Hachi family, escorting Eri to and from school.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the campus, and students carrying schoolbags walked out of the teaching building sporadically.
They are all members of the Homecoming Club and go straight home after school, while most of the other students also have their own club activities.
In Japan, the only way to advance to high school is the college entrance examination.
If you have other talents, you can be specially recruited into the school, so many people struggle to join popular clubs, such as the baseball club. If you can get a ranking in Koshien, even if your grades are poor, you can still take it with you. Bonus points for the certificates awarded.
When enrolling in college, examiners will also refer to your transcripts and club activity records for three years of high school.
Moreover, Horikoshi High School is also the "cradle of Japanese idols" with the purpose of cultivating artists, so more people join clubs after class.
However, Eriki did not have the opportunity to join the club. Her activities at school were limited to school hours. After the last class, she had to take the bus home.
Lu Mingfei walked in front, leading Eli Yi to the school gate.
Caesar and Chu Zihang used urine escape as an excuse to abandon him again.
Because of the financial support from the Inuyama family, Horikoshi High School is very large. It takes ten minutes to walk from the teaching building to the gate. When Lu Mingfei came in the morning, he experienced how many roads there were in this maze-like high school. Dizzy.
They walked downstairs from the classroom on the third floor, facing the large playground. The green ground was full of genuine turf.
All we can say is that Bird Food is rich.
High school students in uniforms ran past Lu Mingfei. There were people playing football and basketball on the playground. The seniors who entered the school first waved their rackets casually, and the tennis balls flew high and even flew out of the tennis court.
The juniors ran around non-stop to pick up balls for the seniors. Before the new club members joined, they had to work hard for a year. They could only accept the scoldings from their seniors. When they became seniors, they could do it. Opportunity to touch a racket and participate in competitions.
This is like a back-and-forth cycle, just like Lu Mingfei once tried every means to meet Chen Wenwen by chance, hoping to "happen" to go with her after school. After more than a year, he actually returned to campus and went with another girl. On the way home from school.
It's just that he is no longer the same person as he was then, and the literary girl next to him is not the same literary girl in a white cotton skirt.
Eriyi's appearance is obviously superior to Chen Wenwen's. She is as delicate as a doll and walks like a princess, noble and elegant.
She walked very slowly, her small leather shoes with round toes hitting the ground, making almost no sound, her white knee-high socks wrapped around her curvy calves, her pleated skirt rose and fell with her steps, and her ponytail swayed behind her. .
The faint smell of milk drifted into the tip of his nose, and Lu Mingfei thought that Hui Liyi used a shower gel that was probably milk-flavored.
She loves taking a bath, and when saying goodbye on QQ, she often ends with "I'm going to take a bath, bye."
Lu Mingfei knew that she really went to take a shower. Sometimes, she would come back and say "I'm done" after taking a shower.
Biology says that humans have no scent, but research has proven that if you meet someone you like, you can smell the unique scent of hormones.
This smell is probably made up by the brain, because you like her very much, you like her very much, and you want to be with her anytime, anywhere, so your brain creates such a sense to allow you to distinguish her.
Lu Mingfei felt that this statement was not without scientific basis. When he was around Chen Wenwen, he could smell the faint smell of lavender, but after returning from Weiming, the smell disappeared without a trace.
It may also be that his nose has been baptized by the smell of blood and gun smoke and has become less sensitive to fragrance.
The two of them walked slowly around the playground under the afterglow of the setting sun, hearing the shouts of others in their ears.
Eryi walked step by step, probably because she didn't want to go home so early. Lu Mingfei also slowed down and followed her rhythm.
She suddenly stopped, her schoolbag pressed in front of her pleated skirt, and she looked into the distance.
Lu Mingfei looked along and saw a pigeon landing on a telephone pole from a distance.
The pigeon gently combed its feathers with its beak, and firmly grasped the wire with its two paws, basking in the sun comfortably.
After a while, it flapped its wings and flew away.
Pigeons live a free life and can fly wherever they want.
Who doesn’t want to be a dove?
Lu Mingfei watched the pigeon go away, hoping that it would find a place to have a good meal. Although wild pigeons are free, they have to rely on charity from well-wishers to eat. Especially in a steel city like this, if no one feeds it, it will I can only go hungry and go to the next place to find food.
"Are you having a good time today?" Lu Mingfei said softly.
The girl's profile face was still expressionless.
She rarely seems to show her inner feelings on her face, and she doesn't give people a cold feeling. If I have to describe it, she is like a cat leaning against the window, silently looking at the scenery outside through the glass.
The girl nodded slightly. She held her schoolbag in one hand, tucked her hair behind her ears, and took out a small book from her upper body pocket.
But she suddenly froze again, looking at her left and right hands in a dilemma.
"Let me help you get your schoolbag." Lu Mingfei reached out and Hui Liyi always used words to communicate with him. He couldn't write with one hand. He was very skilled at helping people carry their bags. Trained in high school.
"Thank you." Eriyi wrote in the notebook.
"It's a small thing, you're welcome." Lu Mingfei was carrying two schoolbags. In fact, there was nothing in them. They were just for show. Anyway, there was nothing in his schoolbags. It was just a habit to carry them. After all, he always didn't bring his schoolbags after school. I feel like something is missing.
"The world outside is so big." She wrote down and showed it to Lu Mingfei.
"Do you like school life?"
"I like it very much, but I'm a little unhappy."
"Not happy? Why aren't you happy?"
"Because I'm going back and want to play outside for a while."
"It doesn't matter, you can come out again tomorrow morning, and there will be a long time in the future. You will definitely have the opportunity to play outside happily."
"Then will Sakura accompany me?" The girl held up a small notebook, waiting for his answer.
"Maybe, but you will make other good friends in the future, such as Ishihara Tuyue and Sakurai Na. You can ask them to accompany you, it doesn't have to be me." Lu Mingfei didn't dare. Look into her eyes.
Lu Mingfei felt like the kind of villain who took advantage of a little girl's ignorance to deceive her.
He is not special to Eri. For a little girl who is locked in the house all day and knows nothing, anyone can be her light.
If she had met Caesar or Chu Zihang first, they would still be able to take their place.
Lu Mingfei has seen many more things than Hui Liyi. He is like a mature uncle in his thirties or forties, while Hui Liyi is just a little girl who has not yet reached adulthood.
With the gap in knowledge, he could of course coax Eri into his hands easily, but what the heck?
Just like during military training, male instructors are required not to have private contact with female students, and in middle school, male teachers are not allowed to fall in love with female students. Eriki can be ignorant, but he can't.
At least not now, not at this stage when she still doesn't know anything.
When the girl heard his answer, her eyes dimmed, she lowered her eyelids, put away her notebook, looked down at the ground, and walked forward little by little.
Lu Mingfei looked at her back, sighed softly, and walked to her side with big steps.
The girl suddenly stopped again and stretched out her hand. Her hand was slender and small, as delicate as white jade.
Lu Mingfei guessed that she had lost her temper and didn't want to help her get her schoolbag. She was asking for her schoolbag back.
According to the rules for picking up girls that Brother Caesar taught him last night, you must not return the bag at this time. Doing so will only make her more angry, but it doesn't matter if you don't return it, she will still be angry.
Women are such a troublesome species.
The correct approach is to change the topic, tell a joke, or act ugly. If you make her laugh, the level will be over.
Lu Mingfei thought for a while, but did not do as Caesar said, and still handed over the schoolbag.
He and Eriki are not lovers. As friends, this is enough.
The girl took the schoolbag, looked away, and walked straight forward.
She ignored anyone, and her shadow stretched into a long line on the ground, covered by the shade of the trees.
Lu Mingfei followed him silently, and the two walked silently on campus, their steps surprisingly consistent.
The whole journey was silent, and at the school gate, Sakura had been waiting for a long time.
She bowed to Eriki, opened the back seat door, and stood quietly aside.
Lu Mingfei stopped in front of the iron gate. Caesar and Chu Zihang hadn't come out yet. They agreed to meet here.
The girl suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked into Lu Mingfei's eyes quietly.
"You go first, I'll wait for Senior Brother Caesar and Senior Brother Chu Zihang here." Lu Mingfei said.
The girl stared for a few more seconds, then nodded and walked towards the open car door.
She was about to enter the car, one foot had already stepped in, and her schoolbag was put down.
Like a canary bird being put back into a cage, she will lose her freedom again.
Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered that he had not bought flowers for "Master Huiliyi". After finally meeting her, he did not give her a blessing.
Her illness seems to be difficult to cure.
In the afternoon, he followed the direction Chu Zihang said and asked Eryi some questions.
It turned out that she had to get injections every week and go to the infirmary for examinations every few days.
"Eliyi!" Lu Mingfei shouted her name loudly.
The girl retracted her steps into the car and turned around.
She stood up straight, and a gust of wind blew by, causing the hem of her pleated skirt to flutter.
The two were not far apart, only about ten meters.
After brewing for a while, Lu Mingfei held back a sentence: "Do you want to eat ramen? If you have a chance, I will take you to eat ramen."
He hadn't thought about how to say his blessings yet, but the ramen stall that was quiet in the afternoon came to mind, with good sunlight shining on him, which made people relax.
If you take her there, she will probably be happy.
The girl didn't nod or anything else. Her round-mouthed leather shoes collided on the concrete floor. She came to Lu Mingfei with "tap-tat-tat" steps and took out the folded paper from somewhere.
There was an icy cold touch in her palm. Lu Mingfei's hand was held by her, and two neatly folded pieces of paper were stuffed into Lu Mingfei's palm.
She just wrote in her notebook, "We have made an appointment and will take me to eat ramen."
Lu Mingfei held the note and said, "Yes, we have an appointment."
The girl nodded and got into the car again.
Ying glanced at Lu Mingfei, closed the car door, and entered the driver's seat from the other side.
The engine roared, and the Maybach turned into a black stream of light and disappeared into the traffic.
Lu Mingfei unfolded the note.
There are a lot of miscellaneous things recorded on it, but "Sakura" is mentioned in almost every sentence.
Did it turn out that there were so many things between them that could be recorded?
He suddenly remembered something.
[In fact, no one is irreplaceable. We all like the same kind of people. What really makes them special are the memories we experienced together]
In the mountains outside Osaka, Kukakukan.
This is a big house in the mountains. Although it is in the suburbs, it has beautiful girls that are rarely seen in bustling cities.
They have tender skin, shiny black hair, and wear kimonos to welcome guests.
There were many luxury cars parked in front of the exquisite little arch bridge. A fat man wearing a fur coat and holding a cigar in his mouth got out of the car door and hugged a tall woman wrapped in mink fur.
The woman wore heavy makeup, swung her hips vigorously, and tried her best to appear graceful.
Men in suits wandered around the front and back of the big house. They all held guns in their hands. They were the bodyguards of the Paradise Pavilion. Anyone who dared to commit any crime here would have to consider whether his head could bear a gun made of steel.
But as long as you follow the rules here, you can experience the bliss of the world.
This gambling hall, which has only been open for half a year, has attracted countless gamblers.
Guests in the VIP room can fulfill almost any wish. You can make any wish come true. Whether you want to spend a night with the heroine of a popular Japanese drama or have dinner with the Prime Minister, they boast that they can help you realize it. .
Here, only money speaks. As long as you can get enough money, any dirty, bloody, illegal, or immoral desire can be satisfied.
For some people this is paradise, but for some it is scarier than hell.
Today, the Paradise Hall is open as usual, with men in gold and silver walking across the arch bridge, filled with an aura of luxury and decay.
But the suite on the top floor of the Paradise Pavilion is not as peaceful as the one below.
"General! How many things are you hiding from me?"
A tense atmosphere spread in this ancient-decorated room.
The man in a loose kimono drew his katana, and the priceless antique blue and white porcelain cracked and scattered into pieces.
His eyes widened with anger, and veins stood up on the hand holding the knife. However, the man wearing a Noto mask sitting in front of him just drank calmly, as if he was watching a ridiculous show.
Thanks to "After all, it's hard to calm down" for the 1500 points, "One Thought, Obsession" for the 1500 points, "Hahaha 2333hhh" for the 500 points, and "Love Coca-Cola" for the 100 points currency
ps: No more tonight
