Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Doesn’t Want to Become a Night City Legend

Chapter 237 The Riddler Unsealed

Buzzing——————

Although the streets in Japan are relatively clean, they are not quiet.

Although the city had just experienced a Godzilla attack a week earlier, it had already returned to normal operations by the following week, with people going to work and those who were living off their parents continuing to do so.

Lu Mingfei, wearing a slightly thick oatmeal-colored turtleneck cashmere sweater, stood somewhat uneasily on the street corner. Occasionally, a female office worker or a high school girl passing by would notice him, and then immediately shrink back and whisper to her friend next to her.

In this city, Lu Mingfei should be considered a celebrity.

In that group of hybrid races, he was a monster who single-handedly killed the White King.

In the real world, he was a legendary host from Takamagahara.

Yes, do you remember that concert that paralyzed the entire city of Tokyo? After that, Lu Mingfei naturally became famous, and that legendary concert was all over the internet.

After the battle with the White King, and with the misunderstanding with the Snake Clan resolved, Lu Mingfei and the others no longer needed to work as male prostitutes.

Chu Zihang rushed back to China to let his mother know he was safe, while Caesar chose to return to the Gattuso family and negotiate with his uncle in order to help Lu Mingfei resist the pressure from the mixed-race world. Only Lu Mingfei stayed here for the time being.

And when the 'Legend' takes to the streets, it will naturally attract a lot of attention.

Although Niu Lang Mingfei wears heavy makeup and his appearance without makeup makes him unrecognizable, the mere fact that he 'looks alike' is enough to generate buzz.

Lu Mingfei pulled down the brim of his hat.

He had no idea how Zero had dragged him out on a date when he was engrossed in his work.

What puzzled him even more was that, seeing Zero's calm eyes and unperturbed face, even though he knew that nothing would change even if he refused, he still subconsciously agreed.

Sure enough, something still felt off.
"Awaited."

Before he could think further, Lu Mingfei's hand was taken by an even smaller and colder hand. Lu Mingfei turned his head and realized that tiny Ling had been standing next to him at some point, blocking the gaze of the women who were trying to probe him.

"zero."

"what?"

"I feel like the male protagonist of a Japanese school harem anime right now, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Their inexplicable conversation went unnoticed by passersby, and they simply began to wander hand in hand through Tokyo.

There was no romance or surprises; it was just a casual date, like a seventy or eighty-year-old man taking a walk, going wherever the mood took him. Since both of them were of mixed race, there was no possibility of foot pain.

The store includes a library, a café, a stationery shop, a furniture store, a comic book shop, and a shop selling adult DVDs.
Wait, don't go any further. Although you seem to be old enough, don't go any further.

As the sun set, the two casually found a park to sit down.

A very familiar scene.

Lu Mingfei subconsciously looked around, and this time he didn't see any couples kissing on other benches. Great, it's different from what's described in the comics.

"It's different from what's described in the comics."

I don't know if it was mind reading, but Zero actually said the same thing as Lu Mingfei.

She calmly scanned the left and right sides with Lu Mingfei.

"In the comic I read this afternoon, there should have been a fat man and a little girl wearing white boat socks, carrying a schoolbag and a beret on the bench."

"Stop talking! Don't expose Li Ren's bad nature! Don't hurt the lolicon anymore!" Lu Mingfei said painfully.

"Ah."

The colors of dusk gently enveloped them, as if the whole world had shrunk to just this small space.

A gentle breeze swept by, carrying a faint floral fragrance that drifted between the two, yet it seemed unable to dispel the lingering silence. Lu Mingfei gazed into the distance, while Ling lowered her head slightly, her long hair dancing in the wind, gently obscuring half of her fair face. "...So, is there anything you want to say?"

It was Lu Mingfei who spoke first.

"Why do you say that?" Zero's voice was still soft, making it impossible to grasp her emotions.

"Zero, you're not the type to bother other people's work, are you? You love to say 'be a useful person' all the time, and you're always eager to prove your worth. You were really fighting hard when you were fighting the White King. Someone like you wouldn't drag me out on a date for no reason, so it's only possible that you have something to tell me."

Lu Mingfei knew that Zero was shrouded in mystery.

Among the three nannies, Mai Shude and Enxi Su were found later, and only Zero was the first to follow Lu Mingze.

She was clearly a member of Black Swan Harbor, and after absorbing Herzog's memories, Lu Mingfei felt as if he had found that figure.

"Number 38."

"!!"

This was the first time Lu Mingfei had ever seen such a commotion on Zero. His platinum blonde hair trembled, and he shivered as if a cold hand had touched his neck.

"You remembered... no, you saw it?"

"Yes, Renata Yevgeny Chicherin, that's your name."

"."

Zero's face contorted in pain. This was the first time Lu Mingfei had ever seen her make such an expression. To everyone else, Zero was always the Ice Queen, but only he could occasionally see her make a different face.

Even for someone like Lu Mingfei, this was the first time he had ever seen Zero with such a contorted face, as if she were constipated.

My feelings are complicated.

It's like having a friend of the opposite sex visit your home, and your parents immediately pull out a baby photo, even showing the baby wearing open-crotch pants – it's incredibly embarrassing.

The difference between Ling as a child and now is too great. She was a girl who was afraid of being alone and even wet the bed at an older age. It was impossible to tell that she would grow up to be such a queen.

Not only her, but Lu Mingfei also saw the most familiar relative in his memory.

【Lu Mingze】

The elusive demon didn't interrupt the flashback this time either, and Lu Mingfei silently watched everything from Herzog's perspective.

Lu Mingze is an experiment.

Its origins are unknown, but it's considered a Dragon King-level 'contraband,' yet it's also an absolute failure.

He cannot be controlled. No matter how many drugs are used to suppress him, the boy can still influence the world with his pure 'spirit'. He cannot exist as a weapon, so his existence can only be studied to a certain extent.

From Herzog's perspective, he only knew that Lu Mingze, known as 'Zero,' contained many secrets, and he made the judgment that 'this is not an existence that can be created by humans, but rather a creature born from natural evolution.'

As for the most important thing, Herzog knew absolutely nothing about the relationship between Lu Mingze and Lu Mingfei.

Even in Herzog's memory, Zero was supposed to die with Zero in the Black Swan Port explosion.

But now, both Zero and Zero have survived, and they are still in a superior-subordinate relationship—considering that Zero is also from Black Swan Harbor, he might know Lu Mingze and was rescued by him.

The two must have spent some time together.

"He wouldn't let me say it."

Zero met Lu Mingfei's expectant gaze and lowered her eyes slightly.

"but now"

"I will tell you everything I know."
