Chapter 66: Lu Mingze, Zero

At night, a black car was speeding on the mountain road.

In order to avoid affecting the crowd, those special church schools are built in the mountains or similar uninhabited places. This is done to keep secrets and control the activities of those children.

Although those schools are surrounded by thick stone walls, and even electrified wire mesh is stretched on the stone walls, there are still brave children wrapped in insulating cloth and grabbing the wire mesh, and successfully climbed over the wall to escape from the campus.

However, because the school is located in the mountains, even if the student successfully escaped from the school, he got lost in the vast mountains. When he was found by the rescue team, the unlucky guy was thirsty and almost dehydrated, and he was half dead.

Mu Qingzhi and her three-person team received this task at 7 o'clock in the afternoon, but when they drove all the way from downtown Tokyo to here, it was almost dawn.

——The location here is really too remote.

After driving for several hours, Crow, the driver, was still energetic, but Mu Qingzhi, who was sitting in the back seat, was already drowsy.

Before, he could occasionally meet a few cars on the road, but since turning into this road, there was really no one around, and there were no street lights on the side. Everything seemed dark, with only the faint light from the car lights.

In this case, Crow could only reduce the speed appropriately.

"Crow, how long will it take to get there?"

Half leaning on Jiude Mai, Mu Qingzhi yawned a little sleepily.

The driving for several hours was really boring. She originally wanted to talk to the system, but she didn't expect that guy to get carsick again...

"Half an hour."

Looking at the situation in the back seat through the rearview mirror, Crow stretched out his middle finger to support the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"Miss, please take a rest first. There is a blanket I prepared in advance in the back seat."

"Rest? But..."

"Okay, lie down obediently."

Before Mu Qingzhi finished her words, Jiude Mai put her head on her legs without saying anything, and then took out the blanket prepared by Crow from the back and covered her with it.

"I'll call you when we get there. Close your eyes."

Mu Qingzhi: "..."

-The first time in my life to use my knees as a pillowjpg.

Originally, she was a little embarrassed, but the sound of the moving car sounded like a lullaby, so she fell asleep unconsciously in a daze...

………………………………

"...Hmm?"

Blinking her eyes, Mu Qingzhi suddenly sat up.

At some point, the world around her suddenly became extremely quiet. Not to mention the sound of the moving car, in that moment, she couldn't even feel her own breathing.

Besides that...

Looking at the empty car, and then at the car still moving forward along the mountain road outside, Mu Qingzhi's face changed slightly.

At some point, Jiude Mai disappeared, and the driver Crow also disappeared, but the car was still moving forward.

...Unmanned?

After thinking for a while, she took off the blanket on her body and folded it in the trunk. Mu Qingzhi stood up and picked up the Spider Cutter next to the car window.

But just when she was about to smash the window with the handle of the knife and jump out of the car, a familiar voice that sounded a little helpless suddenly sounded beside her.

"I haven't seen you for so long, and your attitude towards me is just like this? I thought you would be more happy."

"Uh..."

Stopped the action in his hand, Mu Qingzhi turned his head and looked at his side.

At some point, a boy appeared in Jiude Mai's original position.

The other party was wearing a small black suit, a white silk scarf on his collar, and a pair of light golden eyes were smiling at him.

"Long time no see, this is the second time you have entered my dream."

Mu Qingzhi: "………"

…………………………

"…So you did it?"

Looking at the scenery passing by outside the car window, Mu Qingzhi sat back in her seat and asked with a strange look on her face.

——She never thought that she would meet Zero again here.

"No, you took the initiative to enter my dream."

Seemingly in a good mood, Zero sat in her seat with his hands behind his back to support his body.

"I was assigning tasks to my employees, and suddenly I found a familiar person who broke into my dream, so I came to take a look."

While speaking, Zero looked her up and down, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"After not seeing you for such a long time, your taste has finally improved. A short skirt with stockings and a long windbreaker suits you very well."

Mu Qingzhi: "………"

"By the way, where have you and Renata been all these years?"

Subconsciously wrapping her windbreaker tightly, Mu Qingzhi decisively changed the subject.

"Since you are nearby, where is Renata? She should be with you, right?"

"Renata... her name is Zero now. Her parents don't want her anymore, so I gave her my name. She's in another place now. The one who's in Japan is another employee of mine."

Tilting his head slightly, Zero started talking.

"Also, I have a name now. You can call me Lu Mingze."

"Employee... so you're the boss now?"

Looking up and down at Zero, who was dressed like a little adult, Mu Qingzhi asked curiously.

"Also, don't avoid my question. Where have you been all these years? I've tried to find you, but I can't find you at all."

"Well... probably went to a very far place."

After thinking for a while, Lu Mingze said with a smile.

"Also, I'm not the boss now. I'm an employee in a black-hearted company. I'm very tired from working from nine to five every day."

"... keep making it up."

"Well, it's rare for old friends to meet again. Let's talk about other things."

Lu Mingze laughed.

"If it wasn't for Ling discovering Khorkina and the others, I wouldn't have known you were in Japan. I was planning to come find you after arranging something, but I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Yeah, so this must be a special fate."

With his hands folded in front of his chest, Mu Qingzhi nodded solemnly with a guilty conscience of having robbed the other party's employees.

"It seems like we haven't seen each other for a long time, just like meeting old friends."
