Chapter 145 Lu Mingfei's Determination
Chapter 148 Lu Mingfei's determination
Inside the car, because of Lu Mingfei's words, the atmosphere in the entire car suddenly fell into an extremely awkward silence.
To be honest, after saying that, Lu Mingfei also regretted it a little, but unfortunately, the words spoken were like water spilled, and there was no way to take them back, so he had to sit in the back seat awkwardly.
It was not until a long time later that the old man's voice with a little murderous intent came from the front of the car.
"...She called you dad?"
"Uh...I was forced to call him."
Reaching out and scratching his head, Lu Mingfei felt a little embarrassed.
"When we play games together online, we often make this kind of bet, such as the loser barking like a dog or calling dad or something, I didn't want him to call me that, so I just let him learn to be a dog..."
"Click."
Before Lu Mingfei finished his words, the sound of something being pulled down came from the front of the car.
When he looked up at the front of the car with some doubts, Lu Mingfei was shocked to see that the old man seemed to have a broken piece of steering wheel in his hand...
"What do your parents do?"
Uesugi Yue put the fragment into his pocket calmly and changed the subject.
"An archaeologist, he has been traveling around abroad and hasn't been back for almost two years... Is the car okay?"
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but ask.
"Don't think about changing the subject, we are talking about your business now."
Through the rearview mirror, Uesugi Yue glared at him.
"Even if you and Zhi have a good relationship, I won't let you pass me so easily..."
"Don't worry, I understand."
Sitting down, Lu Mingfei nodded solemnly.
"But no matter what, I will never give up. Come on, any test, I will definitely pass your test."
...The opportunity to change his fate is right in front of him, how could he retreat at the last minute?
Just as Lao Yan said to him, the opportunity has been placed in front of him. Whether he can grasp it depends on himself. The future is always in his own hands.
He has no home anymore. Instead of living in a daze, he might as well muster up the courage to step into a brand new world to witness the truth of this world and the infinite excitement that he can never see in ordinary life.
And now, he is only one step away from that world.
If he misses this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if he only thinks with his big toe, he can imagine his ordinary and boring life in the next few decades.
First, without exception, his memory will be erased, and then the magical props that Lao Yan sent him will be recovered one by one. Lao Yan is of course still Lao Yan, but the other party will no longer choose to reveal the situation of that world to him.
He will finish junior high school in a plain way, then go to high school, and finally enter college. If he is lucky, his parents may come back when he is in high school or college, and then rush around the world again.
College life might be a little bit better, but it only lasts a few years, and then you graduate and find a job, get married and have children, take on decades of car and house loans, retire early if you're lucky, and then take care of your grandchildren at home, and in your later years, go to the community with a cane to play chess with other uncles... you can see the end at a glance.
If he hadn't come into contact with that magical world, maybe he would have enjoyed it with all his heart, but now that he has come into contact with a corner of that world, how could he give up this opportunity?
Just like the saying goes, I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light.
"Have you really made up your mind?"
Stopping the car, Uesugi Yue took a deep look at the boy behind him.
"I'll state in advance that this is not a childish game. If you are willing to give up now, it's not too late. Even if you can really get past me, the dangers you will face in the future will be unimaginable. You will always be on the line between life and death, and you may be doomed if you are not careful."
... To be honest, he began to appreciate the other party a little.
But just based on this, it is far from enough to want to stand by Zhi's side.
As the Bronze and Fire King among the four great kings, the number of enemies that Zhi will face in the future will be unimaginable. Even he does not have the confidence to protect Zhi, so why does the other party stand by Zhi?
"Don't worry, I have already had this awareness."
Looking at the old man in front of him, Lu Mingfei answered very seriously.
"It's just life and death, just ignore it. If I don't even have this awareness, I won't be sitting here."
"Very good, then show me."
Some appreciation reached out and patted his shoulder, Shangshan Yue opened the car door.
"Let's go, let's get off, you and me go to a place."
"Uh... do you want to change cars?"
Turning his head, Lu Mingfei looked out of the car window a little at a loss.
He could see that across the road, several luxury cars were parked in a row, as if waiting for them here.
"Yes, because I don't have a driver's license, I haven't touched a car for decades."
Opening the car door, Shangshan Yue got out of the car first.
"If we go any further, we'll run into traffic police. At my age, it would be too embarrassing if I were arrested and taken to the police station."
Lu Mingfei: "..."
… He seemed to understand why the other party drove so slowly before.
He got off the car in a daze, and then got on the car in a daze again.
After about an hour's drive, Lu Mingfei came to a strange place in a daze.
"A combat training site in the suburbs. In the past, some people would rent this place as a venue to play real-life CS."
While talking, Shangshan Yue took a box from the back seat of the car and threw it directly in front of Lu Mingfei.
"This is your weapon. You have half an hour to find a hidden place in this venue. Half an hour later, the first batch of ten people will enter the venue. After an hour, the number of people in the venue will increase to thirty. After two hours, I will enter the venue in person. After two and a half hours, the game will end."
Looking at the boy in front of him, Shangshan Yue smiled kindly.
"Don't worry, all of us who go in won't bring hot weapons, only cold weapons. Your victory condition is that you are not caught by us or we are annihilated before the time is up, and our victory condition is that we successfully capture you before the time is up. How about it, the conditions are very loose, right?"
Lu Mingfei: "..."
Although he expected that the assessment might be difficult, he didn't expect it to be so difficult. Looking at the big men in black suits who were rubbing their hands and grinning at him, Lu Mingfei felt that his whole body was numb.
Also, he remembered that he should not have offended these people, but he didn't know why. From the eyes of these people next to him, he keenly sensed a crisis.
——These black suits seemed to come here purely with the idea of beating him up.
