This child is just too adorable. Lu Mingfei really didn't want to lie to her... but she insisted...
"Hang yourself with a hook, and it won't change for a hundred years."
……
The plane took off from the airport and flew over the brightly lit city in the darkness.
A handsome little boy sat on the railing of a tall building, his legs swinging back and forth on the hundred-meter-high building.
It looks dangerous, but it's actually not safe at all.
This time, there were no longer three beautiful women behind him. Mai Shude had gone to Japan to oversee the war effort, and Su Enxi was taking care of the little brat in the hotel. Only the expressionless loli girl Zero stood behind him.
As the plane drove further and further away, the little boy murmured to himself, "Brother, let me see where your limits are."
Zero, expressionless, overheard his mutterings and roughly understood what the boss, who hadn't appeared for a long time, meant by "paving the way"—he had been busy with something.
I guess he put a lot of pressure on his dear brother...
The little boy turned to Zero and asked, "How long do you think it will take for my brother to rise to prominence?"
"Will you help?" Zero asked.
"I'll definitely help!" the little boy nodded affirmatively.
Zero then asked, "Would you hold him back?"
If no one holds him back, given Lu Mingfei's meteoric rise, as long as he hasn't reached his limit, he will surely become the king of the world in time.
In four months, Lu Mingfei mastered advanced alchemy, acquired several powerful incantations, gathered a strong group of subordinates, and amassed a considerable fortune through his own efforts…
What others might spend a lifetime pursuing, he accomplished in just over 4 months, a little over 100 days... This doesn't even include the smaller achievements he made at the same time, such as his exceptionally good grades...
Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of 12, Huo Qubing roamed the northern deserts at the age of 17, Li Shimin conquered the world at the age of 16... and now Lu Mingfei is only 16 years old.
"That's really hurtful what you said..." the little boy said embarrassedly, "I was just concerned about my brother's situation."
Zero remained silent and offered no answer.
The handsome little boy wasn't discouraged by her refusal to answer; he simply said, "The world isn't as simple as it appears to the naked eye."
Many people spend half their lives on Earth, thinking they've maxed out their level, but little do they know they've never even left the starting area.
Zero remained silent. Logically speaking, she was also the kind of person who had never left the beginner's village and had never seen the pinnacle of this world...
Chapter 90 Xia Mi: The ground in Japan is a bit too hot for dragon feet!
Smuggling people into Japan by boat is a common practice. Lu Mingfei grew up in a coastal city not far from Japan and had often heard about such things.
After all, Japan was once one of the fastest-growing developed countries in Asia, so naturally many ordinary people are proud to work there. However, they certainly can't get a visa through normal means, so they have to smuggle themselves in to work illegally...
Lu Mingfei had never imagined he would be smuggled into Japan, but today he was, not by boat as usual, but by private plane...
This was the first time he had done something so thrilling, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
The system logs were still updating other things and weren't paying much attention to this smuggling trip.
Their trip to Japan was just to probe the situation first; they didn't intend to run into the Snake-Headed Eight Family right away.
This trip had a 98% success rate and went unscathed. The most troublesome thing was not the Snake-Headed Eight Families, but the inconveniences brought about by smuggling into Japan.
"After landing, someone will pick you up and drive you away. The base is also ready in Tokyo..." Xia Mi carefully listed the things to do after landing, afraid that she might forget something.
Akira Sakurai stood by the window of the luxury airplane, watching the lights of Japan getting closer and closer, feeling a mix of emotions.
"Sakurai Akira, do you have any friends here in Japan? Didn't the Snake Clan say they would let you out as long as you turned 40?"
After Xia Mi finished calculating the plan, she ran over again to chat with someone.
"Maybe not."
Sakurai Akira's mood darkened as he thought about this. "I've asked some older school staff, and actually, not many dangerous mixed-race individuals can leave the Love School at 40 and go out into the world. Some of them go crazy under pressure, and some have their bloodline flare-ups..."
The bloodlines of dangerous hybrids are unstable; it's no exaggeration to say they might not live to see tomorrow. They might be sleeping soundly tonight, but tomorrow their bloodline might flare up and go out of control...
Hearing him say such things, Xia Mi couldn't help but shake her head slightly.
Having harassed Sakurai Akira, it's time for the plane to land.
On the runway of an abandoned airport in Japan, Su Enxi's private jet pilot was experienced and landed without any accidents. The plane came to a safe stop.
This aircraft is not only used as a luxury business jet; it has also been modified to some extent for practicality.
After the four of them got off the plane, they immediately walked toward the car lights next to the airport.
Such a large plane flying into Japanese airspace, and it's not a stealth fighter, the Japanese side detected it long ago. The captain just told them not to panic and to take care of themselves.
The car that came to pick them up was driven by Lu Mingfei's old acquaintance, Jiu Demai.
"How come it's you?" Lu Mingfei, under the system's control, looked somewhat surprised.
Jiude Mai and Ling are not as common as Su Enxi, and they are far less familiar with this long-legged beauty than Su Enxi.
Actually, the system had its eye on Mai Shude, not because it coveted her, but because it coveted her Dark Illumination skill. It came to the Snake Clan to investigate, and it was definitely because the Dark Illumination skill was so useful.
Unfortunately, she was rejected. Su Enxi said that she had her own things to do... and now they've actually run into each other in Japan?
Could this be a surprise from President Su?
Mai Shude casually replied, "Japan is practically my hometown, so I'll definitely be your tour guide when you come to Japan."
"You guys get in the car first. The Kanagawa Prefecture police are on their way. If you don't run fast and get caught, they'll provide you with food and lodging."
Sakurai Akira dared not glance at this woman too long. He knew that the women around Lord Lu were all stunning beauties, but even more so, formidable women. He had heard Chu Zihang mention this Mai Shude when he praised Chu Zihang's swordsmanship.
Chu Zihang said he wasn't that great, not even as good as a woman.
And that woman had her eye on Mai Shude, who looked like a schoolgirl...
"Will this cause a lot of trouble?" The system got into the car and fastened its seatbelt.
Mai Shude stepped on the gas and drove on the long-abandoned road, saying, "You guys were just smuggling people in. Although you made a lot of noise, it wasn't murder or arson. I could shake off those petty police officers with one hand while driving. Hmm... the plane got away successfully, and there's no more trouble."
It's unclear how Su's luxurious passenger plane was modified, but when faced with pursuit by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces Air Force, it fired two missiles, successfully forcing the Japanese Self-Defense Forces Air Force planes to turn back...
"Speaking of which, do you know who was in charge of modifying that big plane?" Mai Shude asked Lu Mingfei, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat.
"zero?"
If the person in charge of modifying the aircraft is someone Lu Mingfei knows, then the most likely candidate is undoubtedly Zero, who possesses "Mirror Eyes".
Lu Mingfei can now also use the Mirror Eye, and the system knows its effects.
Mai Shude immediately felt a bit bored: "How did you know?"
"Guess."
"Oh." Mai Shude asked again, "What are your plans next?"
"We need to find out the situation at Qingshan Charity School first," the system said. "There are over a hundred people here, so it's not easy to move them. After all, this is Sheqi Bajia's territory, and they will react very quickly."
The most difficult part is this: Sakurai Akira's escape may have already stirred up the fragile and tense nerves of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, who are protecting the secret of the White King's bloodline.
As for people with hands and feet, what if they disagree...? The system never intended to persuade them to agree before taking them away. It would definitely knock them all out first, take them to a safe place or along the way, and then slowly ask them whether they agree or not.
Let Sakurai Akira persuade them, not at school, because that would be too much of a waste of time and could easily put him in danger.
As for their disagreement, the system doesn't need to take drastic measures. It's too disheartening. Submission may not be genuine, and they may not put in their best effort when they work.
If I lead a bunch of cowardly lizards, how am I supposed to slay a dragon?
"Well, it's good that there's a plan..."
Jiude Mai briefly communicated with the system about the general steps of its plan.
She felt there was nothing wrong with the plan; it was just about seizing some dangerous hybrids from the Snake-Headed Eight Families. It wasn't about directly confronting the Snake-Headed Eight Families. Being careful and cautious, a sudden attack would be enough.
As the car gradually entered bustling Tokyo, Mai Shude said, "The headquarters of the Snake-Headed Eight Families is in Tokyo. The place where the Snake-Headed Eight Families work, the Genji Heavy Industries, and the family shrine, an important place for the Snake-Headed Eight Families to hold meetings, are all here in Tokyo."
If you want to investigate the Snake-Headed Eight Families, staying in Tokyo for a while is the best option. You can also send people to act separately.
"Um……"
Although I can use the Mind Illumination Technique, it's not easy to demonstrate it. With the assistance of Mai Shutoku, even if it's only for a few days, I can accomplish a lot.
The system then asked again, "What are you going to be busy with lately?"
Mai Shude knew what Lu Mingfei was thinking; Potato Chips had told her before, but she really couldn't spare any time. Being a war correspondent was one thing, but keeping an eye on the Ghost Clan was another.
The Ghost Gang targets the human smuggling organization; who knows what they're thinking?
Those desperados are truly daring to do anything.
“I’ll be very busy back in Japan and won’t have much time to help you,” Mai Shutoku said helplessly, spreading her hands.
"Ok."
The system said with some regret.
After dropping the person off at their hotel, Mai Shude drove away.
"Sir, should we visit the Genji Heavy Industries and the family shrine first?" Sakurai Akira, wearing a hat and mask, asked Lu Mingfei.
He escaped as a ghost, and although he smuggled himself to China by boat, the Snake-Headed Eight Families might still continue to pursue him.
He had to keep this disguise when he went out to avoid revealing his true identity and being discovered by the Snake-Headed Eight Families.
"Let's skip tonight and get some rest first." There's still plenty of time, so the system isn't in a hurry.
Xia Mi is carrying a list of places she plans to visit in Japan when she has some free time: "Tokyo Skytree, Senso-ji Temple..."
Chu Zihang remained silent the entire way. Sakurai Akira was thinking about saving those dangerous hybrids, Xia Mi was thinking about taking a trip along the way, and he was most similar to the system's target.
The main tasks are to gather intelligence, rescue people, and collect living materials for the Living Alchemy Matrix.
While we're at it, let's find out what secrets the Snake-Headed Eight Families are keeping regarding the White King's bloodline.
Aside from becoming stronger, he doesn't care about many things.
After everyone checked into their respective hotel rooms, Xia Mi didn't go to Lu Mingfei's room to chat.
Time was an issue. Japan's time zone is faster than China's. They boarded the plane just as night fell in China, landed in Kanagawa, Japan, and arrived in Tokyo in the middle of the night. At that time, even Tokyo, the world-famous city that never sleeps, had turned off many of its lights, so it was indeed time to rest and sleep.
Another problem is that she always feels the ground in Japan is a bit too hot for her feet...
Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be any White King bloodline remaining in the world, but since there are, we can't keep insisting that there isn't any in theory.
